    Cora & Tyler share a love for nature and travel, but felt it was inaccessible due to traveling costs. After contemplating how they could pursue their traveling dreams for as little money as possible, they finally decided that vanlife was their best option. When they started looking for vans, they discovered the Westfalia and Tyler instantly fell in love. Although Cora was not a fan at first, she has grown to absolutely adore their '86 Westy. Neither of them would trade this experience for the world. Their van still has many original features that were installed in the 80s, including the original cabinetry and swivel table. Also included in their layout is a small bench seat, a stove, a sink, & a pop-top bed. To keep up with Cora & Tyler's travels, be sure to connect with them on social media at / @corawanders

    I think Dawn Powerwash was a gamechanger for the vanlife community. I use it at home, too. I think these vans are so cute and compact. You can't go wrong with a Westfalia. They were the original vanlife vans before it was cool. (Hippie Van)

      The real game changer is the Dawn Power wash recipe hack. You can make your own for pennies. Add to the power wash bottle, 2T regular Dawn, 1T 70% rubbing alcohol, and then fill the rest of the way with water. Shake it up to mix, then let it sit for a few hours. That's all there is to it.

    I’m not sure where you got the idea that for the “older” generation there’s a stigma attached to van life but to give you a little more insight, 48% of seniors 65+ live in RV’s full time. In fact RV ownership has risen 62% in the last 20 years and 11.2 million households have an RV. Half of those are 55+. If you do a little research you will find many families went camping in the 1940’s, 50’s and 60’s. So to make a sweeping statement about a stigma from the older generation isn’t correct. You may have experienced it from some and I will admit you will find that but it can also come from younger people as well. Those families camping as far back as 1910 started out with an idea that mom and dad had. As a little post script-several states now have RV parks for seniors 55 and older!

    This is awesome! An ambulance build will be a great option, too! I've always wanted to convert an ambulance. They have such good bones! Thanks for the tour and Happy Trails! 💕

    A couple of things, I have a friend that has a 1986 Westy Psyncros that I fell in love with and started my never ending journey. I also wrote a story about a couple that travels in their 1990 White Westfalia named "SnowBall". It talks about their adventures and life in the van. Stay positive. Skillet

    Tyler the dishes do-er 😂 so am I (zak)! Glad that you ended up falling in love with Lola too Cora. Love the reasoning behind it being more accessible and being a way to find a place you’ll be happy to call home one day!! Still think its so sick that you added the 2000 suburu engine to get Lola back up & running. Love you guys!! So pleased we ran into you guys in thaf Tucson Cracker Barrel parking lot 😢😊❤

    This is a great video ,I learn a lot watching your videos and it has been helpful to me. Building a steady income is quite difficult for newbies...Thanks to Mrs.Christine Reynolds for improving my portfolio. Keep up with the good videos.

      l also invest with Mrs Christine Reynolds , she charges a 20% commission on the profit made after each trading session, which is fair compared to the effort she put in to make huge profits.

      First episode I've ever seen of them. I happen to like it. The daily camping trips is what makes it a need for others (maybe not for you, but for others), to watch for future ideas.
