Sorry it's been a while! This video started on a day I was feeling pretty down about life, and follows me a bit while I try to do things that made me feel better, and explains where I am now, and what I'll be doing for a while now down the road. (ha, pun.)
Music:
Good Morning Answering Machine Baby - Flatsound
Same - Griffin Peterson
Honey, Honey - Mama Mia Soundtrack
Can this Hannah believe that she will be the owner of land and cabins in 2 years? ❤️ you are awesome. X
Same lol
Same 😄 thanks to YTs incredible algorithm 💯
And now a full functional home and land as well as the cabins and land still. A lot of drive, ambition and saving $$$ and not easy and not always the beautiful life on video. This woman works hard on and off camera
And now she has TWO pieces of land! ;)
Don't you ever feel useless or question your purpose in life because you're an inspiration to many people. In two years, you'll be sitting in the bathtub in your cabin's bathroom (which you renovated on your own btw) with spaghetti, a glass of wine, and the rain pattering on the roof, and say "I'm gonna cry out of pure happiness...I love my life." Continue being yourself. Lots of love from Turkey❤️
It's been almost a year since you uploaded this video. I hope you're doing well now. If you ever feel this way again I want you know that it's very normal. I would suggest that you stay in touch with family or a close friend or two. As much as I like to be alone, I can't deny the comfort of having someone to talk to. Human beings are gregarious animal, we need one another. Cheers and be blessed! ;)
Girl. I work 60 hours a week. I go to school. Not full time any longer since i am almost done. I lost my 2 cats last month, I feel lonely. Not used to not cuddling. Any way, just wanted you to know you are not alone. Take care.
I just found Hannah’s channel a few months ago and I had only watched her most recents videos. I’m so glad I started binge watching her videos. So proud of her!
Ive accepted that there doesn't have to be a meaning or purpose to life and thats that.
I know this is a very late comment, but I just found your channel about 2 weeks ago. Your purpose...sharing your journey in life. By sharing your journey in life, you inspire other’s to possibly get out and explore or other’s whom can not get out and explore they see destinations through your journeys.
Omg, yes! 🏞🌄 And for me, her videos are reminding me what it's like to be on my own and more independent, making my own decisions and seeing how capable I am. I hadn't realized how much I missed that!!
I was watching some Maine fishing and camping videos, and your channel popped up as a recommendation. I'm amazed with your fortitude and spirit of adventure. I've travelled all around the world. You rock-on! IMO, the meaning of life is to live, love and learn about the world, and then share it with others. You're doing it all.
So refreshing to see someone jamming to tunes (good choice with ABBA, btw!), and not worried about the whole loss of monitization thing. LOL. Yup, still have those 'what is the point of life' days myself. Just trudge through them to the other side. Be careful driving!
I get being worried about loss of monetization though- it's a lot of people's income
I love your channel. I had lost touch with what it was like to be this independent and free, and I'm now realizing how much I missed it! Inspired-- thank you for that!!
Hey hannah you’re such a beautiful person what you doing now it’s a beautiful adventure, we all know that living in a van kind of little struggle , but look at it this way it’s an adventure.
You’re young and pretty so take advantage of every second in your life .
be aware be safe .
aww hannah i hope ur feeling better!
I absolutely love how this started off with you in quite a low state to you rapping on your way to new things. You're awesome mannnnn.
beautiful, honest video. Thank you!
Hannah, try to cherish each day and each new experience. Enjoy your journey and value all that you can. Be safe and be happy always.
I've been binge watching your videos for days! I came across your channel recently and absolutely love watching you explore!
Hugs sweetie xx it’s just part of being an emotional being... just ride the wave babe 💜
I was born & raised in NYC and the crowded fast pace caused me a lot of anxiety....happy you are headed home.
Thanks for the honesty. You have inspired me in more ways than other van ppl. Thank you I hope your well. You are AMAZING
I love ur van so much ur an amazing person and we all have our rough times but u WILL get through them U ARE worth it
Trust me, you do have a purpose! I'm struggling to find mine as well, but I can tell you that your channel HAS helped other people. You've given me inspiration and great resources to pursue my own goal of travelling full-time in a camper van. Keep being brave, resilient, and beautiful inside and out.
Glad to see that you worked your way throught the slump, and came out into the blue skies again.
Onward + Upward
OMG thanks for sharing that... I have been having moments like that and I feel so lost sometimes... I bumped into ur videos just a few hours ago and this was the 4th one watching and all I did was cry... I'm happy that things changed that quickly for u... Oh and I know what u mean about feeling claustrophobic in NY... I'm from the Bronx lol... 🍀💕✌️
You're so inspiring, thank you for posting this and being so real it's so refreshing. I know this is an old video but I hope you're in a good space now, good luck :)
You seem like such an amazing person. I hope we cross paths some day💜 stay blessed beautiful. I hope all of your worries and anxiety subsides. Highest vibrations to you. Enjoy the journey 🦋
I love everything about you, your van and your videos~ I thank you for simply existing on TH-cam, everything is real and you made me happy! And that's a big contribution to the world!! Making people like me happy because of you sharing your journey in life! Thanks Hannah!!
You're very lucky enjoy the adventure. Love your van!
I honestly am so happy TH-cam’s algorithm brought me to you! You are doing everything I always wanted to do and now in a way I’m living vicariously through you as I set my plans in motion to get my license and build out my own van. I wish you all the best of luck and that your journeys and plentiful and amazing💜💜 if you’re ever in Washington state hit me up and I show you some amazing spots😊
Keep strong you can overcome this
I really like your stories and music you use!
hannah i love how realistic you are
You're an incredible soul and you inspire me very much. I'm glad I came across your youtube channel. I'm prepping for van life myself and the closer it gets the more nervous I get! Excited to share my own journey very soon x
That’s so exciting!! You’re going to love it!
I clicked on your van showering video because it was in my feed and then searched your channel (because van).
You are so adventurous and cool. Seem like a very good person, good luck to you
Love your videos, they are visually stunning and so chill. 😊💯🔥🙌🏾
Opening of this video is one of the most beautiful sky pic I've seen in a very long time.
You are a brave beautiful girl 👧 I really admire you. Be safe, stay happy and enjoy your life. Thank you for sharing. I envy you. I am ready to change my life style after seeing your videos and tons of another nomadic’s videos. Beautiful places and freedom. What else do I need
Hay beutiful we all feel down somtimes, and when your cops seem to be compounding your problems it doesn't help , i look forward to your videos so hay your brightening up my day thank you love from i hope soon a free Scotland.
Your so pretty, I just discovered your videos and I love them !! 😍❤️
Your beautiful, sending lots of love ♥
We all have these days Hunny, and when your feeling down, depressed make sure you have a cry, letting it all go will help xxx
Especially when you get your period feelings of depression hit most women it's normal and part of if, relax and chill out on those days watch a movie meditate xx
All the best 😘
Love from Bali ☀
I have those moments often!!
Im now addicted to your videos 😍
Rainy days are my favorite too. The rain Calms me.
Heyyyy, your van is beautiful! I just wanted say: don't underestimate how much much your moon cycle affects your mood! It's very possible that the way you were feeling had more to do with your hormones than something being amiss in your life. Track your moon cycle and mood (via an app or create an analog tracker in your journal) and you will see patterns in how you feel when ovulating/menstruating. For me personally, this practice has been a game changer in managing my mental health because I can better see how intense feelings are sometimes just due to body chemistry, not due to something being "wrong" with my life. Best wishes!
the Meaning Of Life always changes.... you always keep learning.
This is a bit of an old vid but thank you for making this video. I'm a fan for sure especially after this. I'm prone to getting those feelings every now and then being introverted and all, and I convinced myself that perhaps getting a van would force me more into the real world when I have those days. I guess I knew deep down that I was just lying to myself. It's as easy to coop yourself up in a van as it is in an apartment. I just wanted an excuse, an escape plan from my current feeling of being stuck. And living in a van is what I told myself would help me escape. I still want to live in a van for financial reasons and to be able to travel, but I need to get extra careful when I inevitably have those sad days that I have while living in an apartment too and not treat the van as something that will save me from my own thoughts.
Also... I'm thinking of getting a dog for this reason. Might help on those days.
I love your videos!
When you were singing mama Mia I realized that it was Amanda Seyfried that you reminded me of 💁🏻💕
You will be glad too know you are not the only one this happens to. Not everybody is this brave to share this. You are brave and pure.
I know this is an old video by now, but I only recently watched it. I appreciate your honest insight and appraisal of how your emotions fluctuate. It provides the viewer with some balance - not every day is fun and exciting, and sometimes maybe you just feel "off." Like most people. And even this early into your TH-cam career, you do really well with engaging us viewers as you drive and talk to that little camera. It feels like we are sitting next to you as you share what's going on. Never having done this myself, I can only imagine that it's not easy, but you've done it well. Thanks for your frankness - I think it will help some others who might have imagined that there is something wrong with them that they don't feel upbeat and cheery all the time. Even you in your cool free spirit life with hundreds of thousands of followers have days when you feel down. Good for you to share.
I love how adventurous you are. I would like to be like that one day and be able to travel wherever and go wherever without thinking of regret or whatever and just find myself some alone time.
The way you are feeling...we all have these days. I believe it is our souls way of cleansing the old to make room for the new.
Dude the fake vans are sick!! I hope you feel a bit better!! Your videos are super honest and it’s really integral!! Hopefully nature will help heal you!!! Lucas!
I just found your channel and have been binging all your videos, love them! I really want to do a similar thing one day and convert a van and travel freely. I also really related to how you said you were feeling in this video, sometimes I get stuck in my own head and it helped hearing you talk about it so thanks x
I can relate to that....I wish I could travel an just be myself
flatsound!!! as soon as i clicked this video i was like awwwww flatsound. do you listen to him much? hes my favorite.
found your videos recently. decided to start at the beginning and now here i am :) youre so sweet
Let me tell you something Hannah! YOU ARE NOT ALONE🙏😘You are a “feeler” thank God. We move through life bringing joy to others which in turns brings us joy. Anything I might say to you may or may not resonate and that’s ok because all you need to know is you are not alone. Embrace those moments when you “just don’t know “ or you feel blue or even a little depressed. This is life and you are living it and bringing joy on Social Media. There is nothing wrong with you. Journaling really helps me......crying....chocolate.....whatever makes you feel better. You are perfect and beautiful even when you feel like shit. Trust me! 👍🙏❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊
hello! im new to your channel and i love your videos, personality, and plants! i wanted to say that i love this video so so much, how it shows your mental health improving and just, i love this video overall :)
Thanks again for your honesty. It's so great that you are able to share the difficult days with us. This is Grace again, from India. Being 58, I have learned that times like these are very normal, for me at least, and it's better if I don't fight it. They come and go, and afterwards, as with you, there is new energy. It's like being on a sailboat with no wind. That next current will come. Trust the process, I guess, although that is never easy when you're in the unpleasantness. Thanks again Hannah. Letting us know what you go through is a service! Sending you good vibes and blessings for your journey.
thank you for sharing - most men have no idea what women have to deal with.
It takes such bravery to bear your soul to such a judgemental and critical world.
Such sincerity and transparency?
I definitely appreciate the unfiltered presentation.
Earned my subscription!
Some say it is pseudoscience malarkey, but.. consider finding a personality evaluation to explore what conspires to create who you are as an individual, define what matters most to you, explore your passion for self discovery as you travel, and refine your personal sense of purpose.
As woman we were blessed or cursed with our period. Emotions run wild right before starting your cycle, that’s the beast lol. Love your Pothos plants, to take away my anxiety I care for my plants. Yes yes write a journal, Jamming to music 🎶 is healing. Nothing is permanent life is fluid just be you.
Hey glad that you are still on TH-cam and happy to hear you are going home to handle some important things that you spoken about I have to say if you apartment is like your van it has to be Beautiful and if you ever come to California please go to Central Casting they should have one in your town I think you would do great in the business. And the way you come off here is really cool Take Care and Hug your Parents for sharing their Daughter with us here on TH-cam Take Care😊
I love your videos. ❤️
I feel so the same as you in this video.. I am doing my vanlife in South Korea. but I feel like just you at the moment. I want to realize or refresh by myself.
Adorable!
Thanks for share this. I hope it helps somebody!
I’ve never met someone else who just jams out to Mamma Mia music. I listen to it whenever I get down and it immediately helps. ❤️
Hey found you today, nice thumbnails. I had the same thoughts a few weeks after being in my van. Push through and soon it will start to feel like home. But it took some travel before I felt purpose being in the van. Staying in town working all the time while sleeping in my van looses purpose quickly.
You gotta download the iOverlander app. It's a must have for van life! It'll help you find spots to park and other resources.
You should try the app day one, they have it on the ios app store for journaling its for both iphone and the ipad, mac since you like journaling. It helps me when im in those weird moods it feels good to vent and keep notes about things.
.... so you’re a writer! How cool!
Bahahaha that outro though😂🤣 Minnesota welcomes you home
Tell your story. What made you decide to go van life?
Two things that you might consider. The first is that you might be more of a homebody. The travel and the seeing things is great, but some people (myself included) love the familiarity of things. I like writing at coffee shops where the baristas know me and sit down and talk. I like being alone and I typically work alone, but I love meeting friends, drinking slightly too much wine, and geeking out on literature or whatever it is that we talk about. Also, I would suggest that you are far more into the process of creating the space than anything else. I have only watched three of your videos, and two of seemed so to show so much about your desire to create. This is an important quality. I am a retired homebuilder and I love smart design. It is why I stumbled onto the van life pages-- the design of smart, small spaces is interesting to me. There are a bunch of books that stem from Fine Homebuilding called The New Cottage Home and the Not So Big House (Sarah Susanka) I am a voice from the peanut gallery, but I offer my insights in earnest. You may find purpose in some aspect of design. It's a big world and much of what we humans do isn't so nice. There is plenty of room for those who know how to make something of it. Good luck.
Here are two links. One is called living with Zen. www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=t1.gstatic.com/images?q%3Dtbn:ANd9GcSA4SnVw8-rSw_KsaVZK5XNcMhxzfPzhjZYMowTAb9twbA4PLvR&imgrefurl=books.google.com/books/about/Living_with_Zen.html?id%3DaanzPAAACAAJ%26source%3Dkp_cover&h=803&w=621&tbnid=WWX6SXP9ARTQxM:&q=Living+with+Zen&tbnh=160&tbnw=123&usg=AI4_-kRoBcWuGJKpBzOHEEa75dHXJsSgHA&vet=12ahUKEwjc9rb-y_PfAhVzFjQIHT__BG4Q_B0wEnoECAUQEQ..i&docid=pVznwwpwSlMDvM&itg=1&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjc9rb-y_PfAhVzFjQIHT__BG4Q_B0wEnoECAUQEQ
The other is The Not So Big House. There are a million design books out there, but I thought that you might enjoy these. books.google.com/books/about/The_Not_So_Big_House.html?id=_Zy_hEzQYYcC&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button#v=onepage&q&f=false
At Walmart there the blue paper towel 1 or 2 pack in auto. Try it it’s the best clean. And get a bar of ivory soap. It’s clean so well a shower isn’t needed.
And about the blues everyone get it. Don’t focus inward. Sorry about your life. Instead count all the thing that your are ahead. Do the math your are saving about 30buck a day. No elictric bill cable. Etc. you feel so much better. Because your are ahead, freedom etc
Love the vine you have: I assume you actually planted this, rather than it invading the van when you were parked up in some forest for a couple of weeks?! I aspire to have a grape vine rambling across my roof rack, and some flowering things that bees will like - a sort of mobile pollinator cafe. I was doing some van-build yesterday by the beach and noticed wasps inspecting holes in the door for potential hibernation spots. Nuts. Anyway - do come visit Cornwall in the UK at some point - it's alway raining so we never need to shower. It's great : )
I hope this egg agency completely informed you as to how many remaining eggs you have left and you won't regret the decision in donating more eggs in the future. Your resilience is apparent but your future well being, health and safety is priority. Stay safe and stay aware always. 🙏🏻💖🌺🤗
Whenever you are down, always have things that make you happiest around you and do them. If it's reading, have a tablet with lots of books. If it's beautiful things, look up a museum or a park or somewhere near water and watch the sun come up over it or go down over it. There's no reason to stay down, you can always turn it around.
Huggssss!
Nice video, thanks for sharing
Love the view
I lived in a caravan for about 2.5 years so I know how easy it is to just not leave the "house" for a couple of days and eventually just going for that shower that makes you think that it might be time to not just be in the caravan, actually enjoy some of the nature around and such. but yes, its super easy to feel depressed when you are alone so much even though Im bit of a hermit. love your videos btw, what do you do for heat in your van? I have not yet started my own build but I was thinking heating in the flooring since all heaters with airflow only is not very cost/energy efficient.. Keep on truckin!
I know this is a late response but something that has helped me with being alone and feeling like a “loser” is researching how I can make a difference not contributing to plastic and becoming more minimalistic. As well as supporting cruelty free, organic, brands.
It made me feel like I am making a difference and helped keep me busy doing research. It helps you mentally and physically as well because most grocery products that don’t contribute to plastic waste are organic and natural.
It cleanses your mind and body
Hey... I dunno if you'll even see this comment, but one idea for if you feel like you're not making a difference: Local animal shelters are nearly always happy to have someone volunteer for the day, even just walking the dogs around their property. The kitties and pups will show you right away how much they appreciate your efforts.
Apartment and full time job, also feel like I have no purpose most days. Glad to see you got through it, felt better, and made a plan. When you're done with apartment stuff consider going west. Less people, longer drives, lots of BLM and Forest service land where you're actually allowed to be, nobody knocking on your door for "looking suspicious".
FFS people, I am sure the last thing this darling young lady needs to hear is "you're so pretty; you're so hot". She is obviously feeling down and maybe a wee bit depressed.... and that has NOTHING to do with how fking HOT or not she is. pfft. Anyway, Hannah, sweetheart, I hope you find something that boosts your soul on those 'down' days... I prefer to crank music that changes my mood - just like Abba!!!!!. If you find that your 'down' days are eating at you, please do call on a medical professional. with much love, Shez & GG from Australia
I'm sure you mean well but, um, NO! Not helpful with her journey my friend.
Putting on ABBA in slow days is always a good idea!
I liked and subscribed as soon as I heard you singing to Abba! =)
I really appreciate you donating eggs. I used a sperm donation for my two children and I am so thankful for that donation.
HARRIMAN STATE PARK IS SWEET LITTLE PARK ! I GREW UP IN NJ NOT FAR FROM THERE..
Do you ever read what you have written in your journal? I really enjoy your videos. I can't wait to start my own pilgrimage in my van. Keep up the great work! 🤘💯🤘
Okay I’m confused at 9:27 she was sitting on the left but then on the right
You can sing. Audition for musicals, like Mama Mia, at various community theatres while on the road. They are all over the USA.
Your not far from my place, go to Frosties , get an ice cream or there's a cafe across the road but don't go to McKeesport , it's not safe..... stay safe, stay positive and hope all is well now....
God Bless 🤗
I will pray for you
I'm sorry you're struggling to find yourself 😢. If you'd consider selling your van let me know. It's so pretty
I've enjoyed watching your channel today. Your a very brave, intelligent, cute young woman. My daughter would've enjoyed watching your videos. Unfortunately she died in a car accident in October 29th, 2020.
I think you are very couragious to travel alone but I enjoy going on the adventures with you. Thank you ♡
Oh Julie, i read your comment and I am so sorry for you that you lost your daughter. It must have been such a shock. I hope you are doing well now.
These videos of Hannah are great, aren’t they?
@@annikalund2329, thank you for your kind words ♡
Wife replying. You have youth, you have Adventure in your soul you don't just sit on your back site and do nothing. You have upgraded your cabin you have lots of talents. You have beauty energy you are a go getter person. Look up people can't do that. You are blessed
Mad.. lost 3 nose rings .. why ? Out of the blue... im enjoying being off the road.. no worries..love ur utube! Chill out 🤣
Could you please do a video of a van tour. And explain costs of the build and how you designed it . Most youtubers have sprinters that are out of reach for me. Your build is so awesome and inspiring!!
Check out my blog! hannahleeduggan.com
I don’t have much posted, but I’m pretty sure it’s exactly the information you’re looking for
