I really appreciate the work that goes into making these. The drone shots and drive by's and all the work it takes to bring us this quality content. Thanks!
I'm a nurse COVID-19 frontliner. At this moment getting hit hard in south Texas and watching your videos help me breathe easier. I close my eyes and picture myself in the woods. I cannot run to the woods because my duty is to my patients but you help take me there!
I love love love your videos! They’re so calming and therapeutic lol I like the fact that there is little to no talking (even though I love your eyes lol) and the cooking is awesome! Makes me hungry every time!
Great video yet again! Really like the addition of Lola. Been taking my pup out hiking, back/bikepacking/van camping for the last 10 years and she's the best camp buddy I could have.
It is good to be reminded that we can leave the hustle and bustle of the modern world, and go seek the solace of the wilderness. All the best to you, Van Life.
Every film that Chad produces should be a paid ad by camp owners/local states. He captures not just beauty but the hearts of his audiences worldwide. And this is through his magnificent skills in cinematography & storytelling. You take us with you, Chad! Keep doing you! ❤️
Nothing better then living a peaceful life with Mother Nature and mans best friend.. Keep up the great adventures. That steak and veggies looked sooo yummy 👍
my friend and I watched this when we chat so we can talk about how GREAT IT IS TO GO WITH YOU IN THE WOODS, WALK, HAVE A FIRE AND EAT WHAT A GREAT TRIP INDEED THANKS SEE YOU SOON WE HOPE, BE SAFE AND HI TI YOUR FRIEND HOW SWEET SHE IS (AGAIN SORRY FOR CAPS CAN ONLY SEE WITH 1 EYE)
Watching from India and I always have been concerned about safety when you spend your nights deep in the woods but I was a bit relaxed for 1st time when I saw a dog and a pistol with you 😁👍.
Many of us go into the wild with fear and the need for a firearm. We attract what we fear. I have more respect for humans who live life without an arsenal.
Another great video Chad! I love your outdoors/camping/bushcraft types of videos. Van, dog, woods, fire, tools, stove some of my favorite things in videos! Your editing is still one of the best on YT. I wish there was a love button.
I truly appreciate the quietness of your film and editing style. There is absolutely nothing in the way to distract the organic sounds. I have said it before and I will say it again, you are the only TH-camr I can watch for half hour.
Not even sure what to comment on first... Just AMAZING! Thank you sharing these moments with us. Nature & dog lover and cooking skills all in one video, what more could one ask for!
Love watching you cook you make it see seem so easy, but I know we know it takes a lot of planning. HATS OFF TO YOU! Don’t forget to reward your Beautiful Dog! He’s so cute!
@@Markybug-Keira-Cody VW is popular worldwide because they make good diesel engines and manual transmissions, neither of which are very popular in North America, which explains why there is so few of them there.
Haich lamak Haich, you have my deepest sympathies. I know this feeling and loss all too well. Some of your friends will tell you to go out and adopt another dog quickly and. some will not. That decision will not come from your brain but your heart. There is no replacing your friend that you just lost, but there will be a time when you can add another friend to your heart. You’ll know when you are ready and when you are, I pray your next forever friend will bring you the joy and love that you deserve.
I'm with ya - my dog a Karelian bear dog was put down in late march - Im still not good. We would be in these areas of WA but over in the Olympic Mountains and on my farm.
You know how to Hurt a guy. You drive a VW van, Blue heeler or cattle dog. Perfect steak, I can smell your Bacon. But you carry a pistol 👍, and a zippo lighter. You are the perfect outdoors man..... ✌️ keep them coming ❤️😊
ITS AT TIMES LIKE THIS I WISH I LIVED IN AMERICA AND DONE A MOTOR VEHICLE MAINTENCE AND MECHANICS COURSE BECAUSE I WOULD LOVE TO LIVE THE VAN LIFE. GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS CHAD AND LOLA IS A REALLY NICE ADDITION. KEEP ON TRUCKING
Nice to have a companion along. Needy but that's cool! You are always in such isolated areas, it startling to see other people in your b-roll. Lol. Thanks!
Hi, living the van life Have been subscribed to your channel for around 12 months now and Ive got to say you make some real quality videos, I especially enjoy the ones where your cooking up some food. I find myself watching your videos late at night as they are very peaceful and relaxing. Keep up the good work and stay safe. Paul Sheffield, UK.
You make fantastic videos man. I enjoy them very much. My kind of content, and very well done. Very articulate. And you're well spoken and kind. I'm glad I stumbled upon this. Keep living the dream bro... for the rest of us that can't.
I am blown away with your philosophies kiddo I am equally impressed with your film choreography thank you for making my life a better place to be I think you might be open we live a old dream
I remember your channel about a year ago came across it looking for hikes in Washington. I am glad your channel took off you deserve with all the accomplishments you have done and you have a dog now crazy. You truly are living the nomad life off the grid away from all the crazy stuff going on in the world world right now.
This video felt like a Short-Movie! 👍 The intro music was cool. It had this feeling of anticipation. Happy to see Lola. Look's like she was having a blast running around in the wilderness. Thanks for always showing the name's of the products that you use. Love your channel! Take care, Chad. 🙏
Awesome you can get so isolated. I live in Northern Cal. It is scary going to the forests because of the tons of illegal grows. I have to head to the Sierras to feel safe back-roading it. Get yourself a Chopping Blade, like a Ka-Bar Jarosz Choppa or an Esee Junglas, or similar. I prefer a heavy blade over a short axe. Too much chopping close to the digits with a mini axe. Use that thing for a meat cleaver. LOL. Thanks for the hope and joy you spread through your sharing.
Hello Chad. Great to see another wilderness video. I had a Dingo dog exactly like Nola back in the 80's I named Spook because of his grey eyes. Also there is a Lost Lake located in the Yacolt Burn which is smaller and very secluded with great fishing for Eastern Brook Trout. Anyway, I definitely have my notifications on and will see you in the next video. Keep on trucking on and stay safe.
I love your stuff! I found your channel about a week ago. I have always been fascinated with camping but am a homebody. I am living vicariously through your videos, hoping to get out there and try it myself someday.
Chad, One of your best videos ever.....wonderful camera angles and cinematography , the forest was eerie and mysterious looking those 2 days. Your minimalist cooking with fresh , colorful and simple ingredients was mesmerizing to behold. And oh yeah, Lola stole the show , look forward to seeing you both in coming videos.
I really appreciate the work that goes into making these. The drone shots and drive by's and all the work it takes to bring us this quality content. Thanks!
Glad you like them!
Who makes the drone shots?
@@madcat1007 fake or not, I really dig this channel. One of the best on TH-cam.
@@Aristillus1 HE DOES IT ALL HIMSELF AS FAR AS I KNOW GREAT WORK HEY
Have to agree with Jesse. Chad is one of the best videographers out there.
Thanks for a great channel mate!! 🍺🍺🇿🇦🇿🇦
Lola is a wonderful addition, she is a very cool doggie!
I'm a nurse COVID-19 frontliner. At this moment getting hit hard in south Texas and watching your videos help me breathe easier. I close my eyes and picture myself in the woods. I cannot run to the woods because my duty is to my patients but you help take me there!
A covid frontliner lol 😆 😂
Elizabeth Patton ]Thank you for all that you do. My sister is a nurse on the front line as well. Bless you.
Thanks for all you do! ❤❤❤💊💊💊
Stay safe 🧐😎
Stay safe
You're the best Chad...Keep safe and God bless always
The fact that he can have such amazing cinematography and sound engineering while driving is genuinely incredible
I love love love your videos! They’re so calming and therapeutic lol I like the fact that there is little to no talking (even though I love your eyes lol) and the cooking is awesome! Makes me hungry every time!
Chad’s videos always inspires me to hit the road and see how beautiful the places you can see in this amazing country.
That's very cool to hear! I appreciate that!
Living The Van Life you’re appreciated as well bro. Thanks for everything.
Nice video.
I find your videos and the ones from the young Chinese woman living traditionally in the mountains relaxing.
The intro music is giving me goosebumps. I can listen to that all day.
It's so nice to see people on the road like yourself making a very very healthy meal with all the healthy ingredients
dude, doctor livin in central uk in a covid crisis. you're bringing me happiness. lovin lola
So good to hear Ben. Thanks for watching!
Living The Van Life maybe get a face mask decal for the front 😜
Great video yet again! Really like the addition of Lola. Been taking my pup out hiking, back/bikepacking/van camping for the last 10 years and she's the best camp buddy I could have.
Chad you know I love you but Lola just stole my heart!❤️ I'd say she's a keeper and she even does dishes! 👍
As usual, the visuals are stunning! Thanks for taking me along!👍🇺🇸🤠🙏✝️
Lola is lovely! The perfect Van Life buddy! Awesome filming as usual.
Glad you enjoyed it
Me and my wife love your videos. This one especially. Keep’em coming! It made me reflect on the relationship I had with my dad and now my son.
I absolutely love your cinematography. Keep up the good stuff!! It's super enjoyable to watch. Hope you're doing well.
Thanks a ton! Much appreciated! Cheers!
It is good to be reminded that we can leave the hustle and bustle of the modern world, and go seek the solace of the wilderness. All the best to you, Van Life.
I do not remember seeing Lola before she is beautiful. I just love watching your videos. Thank you for all the time you spend on them. You take care.
Thanks so much
The intro was calming, yet eerie. The music, the camera, no talking, just the sound of the van and nature. Well done man.
One of the things that I enjoy the most is the cooking over the fire. That steak looked great.
Thanks, Chad. Been watching you forever. The OG of van life!...
The fact you film this on your own is amazing. Those off road shots at the start was so good.
Every film that Chad produces should be a paid ad by camp owners/local states. He captures not just beauty but the hearts of his audiences worldwide. And this is through his magnificent skills in cinematography & storytelling. You take us with you, Chad! Keep doing you! ❤️
I think my mouth was open and my tongue was hanging out the whole time you were cooking and eating that food! Great video as always...
Ha! Thanks for watching!
@@LivingTheVanLife nice video

Man you’re nuts the way you Handel your van ! But the thing is you now the most beautiful spaces ! Thanks you are the best ,👍👍👍
Thanks Marion!

Look at your dog expression while you eating so funny 🐶😂😂❤️❤️
hahaha I know right!?
I truly appreciate the quietness of your film and editing style. There is absolutely nothing in the way to distract the organic sounds.

THUMB UP
BEFORE EVEN WATCHING
I KNOW A CHAD VIDEO IS AWESOME
Awesome! Love it! Thanks for being part of the channel!
Another quality video. Thanks for sharing this beautiful spot and Lola is the best!
Glad you enjoyed it
Whenever I see anyone do a clip of them driving past the camera I always laugh and Imagine them driving back to get it
You should see the behind the scenes clips of it.
Living The Van Life That was one of my favorite videos ever. Makes you realize how much time and effort these videos take
Living The Van Life Do you really have behind scenes clips, wow! Good work!
Not even sure what to comment on first... Just AMAZING! Thank you sharing these moments with us. Nature & dog lover and cooking skills all in one video, what more could one ask for!
Oh bless Lola!! If she had been giving me those eyes, I would have given her the whole damn steak ha ha 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah me too!
I second that lol :)
Anyone know what kind of dog Lola is??
Poor dog 😥
Billydutch thanks my man 🤙🏻
Love watching you cook you make it see seem so easy, but I know we know it takes a lot of planning. HATS OFF TO YOU! Don’t forget to reward your Beautiful Dog! He’s so cute!
Dogs love van camping.Dogs love steak cooked over a fire. Dogs love bacon and hiking . Dogs give this well made video a thumbs up.
Ha! Cheers!
I think most dogs would love camping van style with a guide like Chad.
Liking your videos is not even a decision, doesn't require any thinking. You're that good. Cheers
I appreciate that! Cheers!
I need to start living the van life in my backyard love the video
Yes you do
Its so satisfying watching him set up camp and cook
6:53 Chad goes Gangster on us!
Too good shooting and vedio editing. Mind blowing..........
If only everything in life was as reliable as a Volkswagen , and a Living The Van Life video ! 😎
Ha!
not trying to hate on you but come on
i never see Volkswagen's around anymore
Kenneth Davis I guess it depends where you are ? USA ? They are very popular in the UK.
@@Markybug-Keira-Cody VW is popular worldwide because they make good diesel engines and manual transmissions, neither of which are very popular in North America, which explains why there is so few of them there.
billyfromtheusa Thousands, but look at the rest of the world. Volkswagen is, at least in Europe, what Toyota is in the US.
THE.BEST.VANLIFE. CHANNEL.ON.TH-cam.
Man I thought I was watching someone else’s van life channel when I saw that he cooked the steak WITHOUT Montreal steak seasoning!!!!!!!
Pink Himalayan sea salt is the bomb!
Such an adorable dog. Love your videos. High quality and enjoyable.
Honestly watching this video is kind of sad..
My dog died today, he was 9 years old😔
Awe sad! I’m sorry to hear of your loss!
Sorry to hear that. Hard to lose such a good friend and companion.
We always wish we could have one more day with our beloved pets. I am so sorry.
Haich lamak Haich, you have my deepest sympathies. I know this feeling and loss all too well. Some of your friends will tell you to go out and adopt another dog quickly and. some will not.

I'm with ya - my dog a Karelian bear dog was put down in late march - Im still not good. We would be in these areas of WA but over in the Olympic Mountains and on my farm.
I really appreciate the work you put into your videos...they are brilliant. I also loved seeing your fur baby and I am glad you shared your steak. ❤
You know how to Hurt a guy. You drive a VW van, Blue heeler or cattle dog. Perfect steak, I can smell your Bacon. But you carry a pistol 👍, and a zippo lighter. You are the perfect outdoors man..... ✌️ keep them coming ❤️😊
WHAT I LOVE WERE ALL THERE : THE DOG AND THE COOKING.
Who's the dog chad?? I've just started watching the episode🤪
That is Lola - The family dog.
Living The Van Life blue heeler? Looks like one to this Aussie eye
Your filming / editing is amazing the start with music and bird noises it's like watching a big budget film.
First
Oh , get a life!
Nice!

Great adventure and video spot on as usual. I like your new addition-Lola is a fine looking pooch. Thank you😉

The dog is so cool. He acts my dog on a hike, always looks back to make sure I’m still there.

I am always excited to watch his videos, always so good at what he does, I love it...its even better with "LOLA" .....
Amazing- alone and the only sources of light shining through the sea of total darkness are his headlamps and the campfire 🔥
Hello Chad.

Chad. I I truly enjoy your videos. Very inspiring. Keep them coming
At 2:08 hes actually driving the van and having to steer the drone while behind the steering wheel, somewhat near an embankment. Top class.
I love your stuff! I found your channel about a week ago. I have always been fascinated with camping but am a homebody. I am living vicariously through your videos, hoping to get out there and try it myself someday.
Love what your doing and the direction your taken your channel... adding the dog was killer. And loved the chest holster....
Thanks for watching Lee! Cheers.

OMG! Heart pounding ride in. Lovely views. Scrumptious food. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Incredible photography - looks like some Rainforest? Lola is a great addition! Well done! Thank You! 🐕
Many thanks!
Nothing better than being in the wilderness with a good dog, steak, bacon & eggs !
Lola is a great addition to LTVL. Awesome footage as always. Glad to see you back out and about. Glock 19 in a chest holster is always a good choice.
Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Great cinematography as always... your efforts and skill are appreciated!! And as a dog owner myself, nothing better than having a camp dog!!
THESE VIDEOS ARE ALWAYS SO DAMN GOOD!! LOVING LOLA
