RV life on Vancouver island is really easy, I see while people chose to live on the road here.
Help us keep the wheels rolling!

Have to say it: You all have the most waited for video for me on TH-cam and I look forward to them! Just simple people with 2 dogs and a simple relic Dodge camper is a cool life..70% of Doing Nothing in a RV is 100% a fun and quality filled life I would say. Always enjoy how you all keep going and your dogs running , nature shots, meal prep, and eating parts! Thanks you two!
Your comments are always so good! Thanks again for watching, and yeah this life is great! It is a gift we are very aware of and grateful for.
This video just popped up into my feed. I watch alot of travelling nomads so I guess it makes sense. I watched this video in utter silence when my house is asleep and I can honestly say first impression is….. i love it. It was serene. Tranquil. Calming. Warming. You made me feel like I was in a world less complicated. Kudos to you both. I will subscribe and watch your other content. I wish you much success.

I’m so glad to hear it! I am aiming to capture that feelings of simple camping so my viewers will gain a bit of peace in their mind. And I’m glad TH-cam is suggesting that as well!
Enjoy watching you guys and the doggies going about your day-to-day lives on the road. Very special ❤
It’s the dogs that win everyone’s hearts haha
I wound,t call it nothing, I call it living. Happy life, happy wife, you my friend have it all.Stay strong,, things will get better.
Happy life happy wife! Such words have never been more true haha
That dog went a long way out in the water. Your RV is so cozy. Another great video. :)
Yeah I taught her to swim in deep water, she’s got all the way to the other side if I ask her. We do big across lake swims in the summer.
Really enjoying your adventures. Especially all the good cooking and happy pups ;-) ~10:08 glassy lake was jaw droppingly beautiful! Thank you!
I never grow tired of those lake and ocean views. To me, vanlife is about pretty places whenever possible, great meals and beverages, making good art and also making the best memories that you can. I enjoy your adventures... they go well with my chili. :) You two are artist.... I wish you all the best!
What a nice comment! Thank you 🙏
Thank you 👍
Love your channel! Honestly you two are so refreshingly REAL! I never really see people like you on TH-cam. Ive been watching nomad/van life/ camp videos for years but your channel is by far the most genuine❤❤❤ive never sent anyone $ for a coffee but i tried to not sure if i did it right hope so...sorry it was so lil but it just me, 3 kids 2 dogs and a gecko so i dont have much $$. Honestly just wanted to support your awesomeness in anyway i could. Good luck out their and i hope you have many blessed adventures ahead. Thank you for letting us live vicariously through you ❤❤❤
Wow thank you! Such a nice comment and I laughed about the Gecko haha that’s pretty cool! Thanks for pitching in, it means a lot and really helps, coming from you with a large family. We’re very grateful ❤️
I'm in Quebec, watching you guys make me want to visit the West Coast 😲!
Great video. You all have great chemistry and the dogs love you as you love them. You 4 are living my friend. Can’t wait for the next video
Thank you 😊 we’ll keep the videos rolling
Sooocooozy in the camper van
Love your videos! Esther is a great cook and I am interested in trying your dinners and the corn breakfast. Also love your relationship and how attune you guys are to each other.
Think of water wearing down a sharp rock to be smooth over the years. That’s our relationship haha it took years of grinding away and now we are smooth and easy ❤️
Love love love your videos. Not to be debbie downer but was a tad concerned when Esther was squirting fuel on the fire. That could actually be very dangerous. The fire can travel back up the stream. Just a cautious reminder. This video was amazing and of course loved it. Just amazing scenery, as always ❤🕊️
I’m nice you get to know Esther you’ll see she loves danger haha
Great video and food looks so delicious 😋
These are fun to re-watch. Curious about Esther’s meal Bugogi(sp?). Sorry. It looked yummy. Love the scenery, so beautiful. Thank you! ❤
here’s a recipe if you’re curious to try Bulgogi! it’s delicious and sometimes can be found at Costco ;) but it’s easy to make! I used minced beef in the
video but it’s usually made with steak cuts!

~ enjoy!! Let me know if you make it! You can eat it on rice or wrap it in a lettuce leaf with kimchi / pickles etc
- Esther :)
Another great video Satisfaction guaranteed.
I really like your channel thank you so much for sharing 😊
좋아요. 멋집니다.
차도 멋지고.
영상이 편안한 느낌. ^^ b
Thanks mate!
Thanks!
Wow thank you! I’m going to take Esther for a nice treat tomorrow, on your behalf. ✌️
Ok I’ll subscribe, how could I possibly miss out these amazing low key adventures. Good wishes from NZ via Japan.
Thanks and welcome! I’ve seen people do van life in the micro campers in Japan, looks fun!
Enjoy you two and your travels!
Thanks mate!
more power to your channel❤❤❤
these are the kind of video i reallllyy like to watch ❤
Thanks! I’m hoping it grows more, I like doing this ❤️
Aww man wow it’s expensive on the road. Great video and beautiful views 🌄🏞 I hope the funds are still rolling in. I’ll toss some more next payday ~Nick from Ohio~
Thanks Nick! Really appreciate it! Yep, I can’t imagine what the home owners are going through right now, it’s already so expensive living on the road.
Great to see you guys! Love the title-- 70% of RV Living is... Doing Nothing. After a long day of work, it's a treat catching up and watching your videos. With the spectacular scenery, rumbustious dogs, classic RV, meals by Esther, and fix-it-all & narration by Randall 😁.... it all makes for another great video. Thanks for sharing your RV living with us! Take care on the road!
Haha thanks Odell! I just looked at rumbustious in the dictionary and it’s the perfect word for the dogs!
I see a lot of van life videos where people escape the wage slave apartment in the poor section of town quiet desperation of civilization life and with the freedom to go anywhere and the time and energy to do anything they do... Nothing. I am not talking about being OK with the quiet and restful moments of life but of literally doing nothing with all of the freedom and time and energy to do things to fill a life with truly living. After the death march to nowhere of civilization I like anyone want time to sleep, to rest, to just sit and be... But I also plan on learning to play keyboard, learning to sing, learning to paint and draw, investing time to drop weight and get in shape, push myself to try new things. I am perfectly OK with being terrible at all of it but I want to use my freedom to live, to create, to build me and not just be a spectator. Van life can be a ticket to an extraordinary life that I think a lot of people pass on to just be spectators.
Yeah, you’re right. It took us a good 3 months of sleep and rest just to recover from a decade of energy put into careers. Now we are finding more awareness in the little moments, been fixing all the little ‘to do things’ on the van, wildling, leather making, cooking, guitar. And more time outdoors too (when it’s not raining).
This is a special time that we are using wisely, but I’m sure we’ll look back and think hmm could have done a bit of this and that too.
That’s the good thing, you can do what works for you. We spend our life having to do things we don’t want to do to live. Enjoy YOUR time doing as little or as much as YOU like ❤. That’s the point!
You 2 are living about 85% of your followers Dreams….. what you 2 do, is take us with you on your amazing adventures. Even if it’s just chilling and Netflix. Know what I mean….
Thanks, it’s a pretty good life, I do have to stop and remind myself sometimes. I knew we had something good going on and I’m glad i decided to get the camera out and film some of it.
Lovely scenery and really enjoying your travels!
Hey guys still love all your videos!! You both are rocking it!! The food always looks so good and just love ur chill vibe. Would love to collaborate on a video if you’re ever back Arizona!!
Collaborate?! Admit it, you just want some of Esther’s cooking 😂 hahaha but yes I really hope we can get back down to Arizona. Will sort out a meet up for sure!
@@randallsmodernlife dangit you caught me!! 😂
I do plan on traveling to Canada this summer if my channel keeps growing so hopefully we can work something out of you guys don’t make it down here. I just think with our video styles and “classic” campers it would make for a good combo!
Cute couple 🎉
Best channel
49th parellel is so expensive compared to other groceries. but smaller towns on the island have all the expensive increasw . nice vids tho 😻💛
Yeah the small island town is a dream but the cost….
Re-living a bit of my childhood watching these island camp spots. so cool, enjoy!
Would be a good spot as a kid that’s for sure!
I just came upon your TH-cam channel and I saw you parking near The Golden Gate Bridge on a very cold night......I love how you have your partner and 2 dogs and get to travel everywhere.......Yes, you can have a lot of money and a mortgage but what you have is a wealth of experiences and knowledge......Visiting as many places as you have you must be an encyclopedia of knowledge.....Much better than being rich.
Haha that’s crazy! You saw us!?
Yes we have spent a decade now travelling by foot, bicycle, motorcycle, cars and RV across the world. Wish I had started filming earlier! The knowledge and wisdom that is acquired along the way is hard earned we are very grateful for it.
That’s some beautiful scenery… keep up the good work….
You guys are awesome! I watched a bunch of videos and you two have a lot of fun. If I could have a RV two epic dogs and a smoking hot gf I would do it to, but no RV, no pets, no smoking hot gf just my ginger beard hahaha anyways great video and im looking forward to more of them!!
Thanks haha I’ve been looking for a meaningful life for years, might have stumbled upon the correct recipe 😂 so if you want to do it, you already know the 3 steps to take!
Been forever searching@@randallsmodernlife
Real living...real life...excellent!
Thank you 🙏
Very relaxing lipe, my friends 🤠👣
Hi from New Zealand! Thank you for such an authentic video of your life, all 4 of you 😊😊 Awesome vlog thank you!
Our kiwi mate! Good to hear from you!
😀@@randallsmodernlife
Esther's pottery is beautiful. I love how admiring you are of her work. I hope she feels better by now. You mention going back to Australia for a visit. You are obviously from there with your wonderful accent. Where is Esther originally from? She sounds like she could be from the U.S. I thought maybe Canada, of course, but she doesn't seem to have that way that Canadians say "aboot" etc. I was also wondering what breed your doggos are. Are they an Australian breed? They almost look a little dingo in them.
Thank you! I’m a bit from everywhere so my accent will fluctuate depending on whom I’m with. But I’m born in Malaysia, grew up in Brunei, spent my teens in rural Australia but I’ve been travelling in and out since I was 18- back and forth through Asia, US etc. I went to private school so american English is what we usually speak. But my Aussie accent comes out bits and bobs :)
Our dogs are Mexican street rescues! They have 13 breeds in them- they’re like me! Bit of everything but friendly as they come :) - Esther
haha thanks for the birthday wishes homies good stuff
I'm diabetic so I use lettuce as a bun substitute for sandwiches like hamburgs and BLT's.
Lettuce buns taste better than bread buns in my opinion! So crunchy and refreshing.
❤Beautiful Video ❤
new subs here. i love your content especially your wife, so beautiful ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thanks, yeah she’s a diamond in the rough!
Ok l will be the bummer here. spraying lighter fluid like that could be a disaster waiting to happen please do not do this very dangerous. Like your videos interesting new sub here.
Someone had to say it! Haha thank you! Welcome to the channel! 🤗🔥
Love your videos!
Hi guys, man…the task of dumping is a necessary evil but $10 to dump seems expensive to me. maybe it’s the going rate in certain parts of the country. Gloves are always good…I don’t really know how people can do that task without gloves. Your dinner looks fabulous. I love rice dishes. I’m not familiar with your power ser up nor am I trying to come across as an electricity expert but maybe you should have 2 deep volt house batteries in addition to the solar? Maybe that might be able to improve your power needs? Just a thought. Safe travels!
Yeah dumping is always on the back of your mind on the road. Most of the time we can find a free dump but in more touristy areas, they got you cornered and can charge much more than $10! We have 200w solar on the roof with a 200amp lithium I iron battery, it usually lasts about a week without any charging. Our here it’s been more than two weeks without any sunshine though so we got caught out!
That shirt at the dump station. 👍
Peace, love and choppers ❤️
Wow couldnt help but notice the milk prices over there in Canuck land!, here in South Australia 2 Litres of milk is about $3.50 Australian which is like $3.12 Canadian! Hopefully it was the gourmet fancy stuff. The prices here are going up like crazy though.
Yeah we are suffering the same price hikes as Australia. My family report back to be and it is very similar in both country’s. I actually spent $10 for the organic milk 😳 it was worth it though. Very tasty and I feel better after drinking it.
Yummy
Pretty cool it's been a long time since I have had bulgogy and rice I served 18 months in Korea up north in Tongduchon.I was 18 years old and a culture shock to me but I had fun I hope you guys have fun and stay well.Take care.
That’s pretty cool, must have been an eye opener! We visited Korea a few years ago and fell in love with the food. Spent a week on Jeju island on an orange farm. I felt so far away from the world and at such peace.
@@randallsmodernlife is that off of chegado island. Out near Pusan.? I only heard of those islands some say their like Hawaii I was in the US Army I didn't get to travel . I'll bet it was beautiful though.
Yeah they call it Korea’s Hawaii and it was just that! It’s an hour flight from Soul, and I think an hour ferry ride from Busan, south.
you make a good couple and she can cook yummy
Rathtrevor looked super quiet! What was the lake you were at?
Yeah it was nice to go off-season and actually get a campsite! And the other site was Lake Cowichan. I love that place.
What year is your van ?
Love it Want one .
It’s a 1980 dodge B300 short wheel base!
👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤩🤩
New Subscriber! I'm Really Enjoying Your Videos!! Give Your Pups A Hug For Me!!!
70% of the time it's boring every time...
Yep it’s just napping and eating haha
@@randallsmodernlife did we just become best friends? 🤣
How about a mini solar 5v trickle charger
We got 200w solar on the roof! It’s just too shady and cloudy lately
How about figuring out a way to start the fire with...wait for it...paper and cardboard instead of waisting your emergency gas bro
I mean anywhere else it’s pretty easy, but in a 100% humidity rain forest for the past 8 months, it’s a challenge 😂
Have you ever started a fire with paper and cardboard or birch bark. Are you really ready to bug out
Yeah, I’m no homesteader just yet. One day!
They need a retractable leash
It would be constantly pulled and never retracted 😂
My god, now wasting starter fluid. Ill give no money for this
But that’s the fun part! The spice of life!
Men think their doing nothing as women plan the day. A title like this gives a poor light to those that do something and live mobile.
Yes, Esther is the star here. But I’m constantly planning too! Where to camp next that’s safe for my family - when’s the next gas stop, sani dump, auto parts store. How am I going to be build this transmission in a parking lot etc etc.
Get outa your head bro
