LIVING IN A VAN IN MEXICO (van life in Baja Mexico)

- We're Jimmy and Natalie, and we’re living in our van in Baja, Mexico. Week 3 gets off to a rough start when what should be a magical bucket-list excursion takes a turn for the worse. But this week is also a story of redemption, as we're able to bounce back and see what all the hype around van life in Baja is really about! 😄🇲🇽💚

I love the lady in the background confidently mowing down a sandwich while 3 other people are puking lol.
lol as you’re talking about getting sick that lady in the back is chowing down on a sandwich😂 hey $70 for 7 days on a beach is a steal!
I was cracking up watching that lady eat her sandwich.
Thanks for not showing the 🤮 cause I was eating supper while watching this 😂
I’ve gotten seasick many times on cruises. They used to hand out apples when it got very rough. If you notice when you ever go on a cruise, they’re usually bowls of apples all around. Also when the boat is moving, especially a small boat, you’re OK but the minute it stops and starts rocking that’s when you get sick. Looks like that’s what happened to you guys.
I had a VERY similar experience puking over the side of a small boat while iceberg hunting in Newfoundland....it was simultaneously a highpoint and lowpoint of my trip....years later I look back on it fondly if that makes you feel any better :) Great video, looks gorgeous!
The 2 of you..... Oh my God, Natalie the way you look at him..... I love you, girl.
I look so forward to your videos! You’re finding some beautiful scenery. Love that you’re even taking us to the markets with you.
The lady behind you in the boat is chowing down on a breakfast sandwich while y’all are miserable! (5:15-5:19ish)
My wife said the same thing!
So good to have you guys back! Thank you for sharing
Hi, from the Pacific Northwest! You two put a lot of effort into making your videos awesome, thank you, fun to watch. fellow TH-camr from Central Washington.
Glad you three are having a great time! Enjoying the videos from both channels. I’ve never been there.
Its good someone else is doing something instead of RV show..............keep it up...............
Every time I think you two have made the best video ever, you top yourselves. Thanks for the journey.
I knew it... I called. " Where's the e-bike?" I asked.
Loved watching yalls perspectives after watching Cory's video! I went dolphin watching in virginia in 5th grade on a field trip and remember being sick the ENTIRE trip lol
The lady eating the sandwich while they were getting sick was epic.
OMGosh yes! If someone pukes, I puke. If our kids ever got carsick (and one did frequently) my husband would stop the car, I would run down the road, and he would look after the situation. He would call me back when the coast was clear. lol…he is a keeper.
😂 I was the kid that caused my parents to pull over everytime we got in the car lol we had a code word so they'd know to stop immediately so I could jump out of the car and spare them haha
Can‘t wait for the next videos, ur so lovely❤
Love seeing a relaxed Jimmy and Natalie! Good choice on the paddle boards and going out in the early morning is a good idea. Can’t wait to see Natalie’s “diving” progression on the trip. 😂
Really love y’all’s videos and how you two interact. Thank you so much for a clean - family channel.
Appreciate it from Ga ❤
Cool spot Guys. Be safe and Enjoy..
Lovely place! Don’t forget the anti-nausea meds whenever you go in a boat on the ocean. Jimmy’s hat is perfect!
Hey there, glad to see you three are having a great time in Baja @corysvanlife Its nice seeing two versions of the same adventure. Hello from Toronto, Canada.
That had to be the smallest boat I've ever seen used for whale watching! Smaller the boat, more the impact of waves/wind/sun, etc. Cool beach spot! Interesting sombrero there Jimmy....Natalie didn't want one? You could have been Tres Amigos y Sombreros!
I hope later on, you look back to the whale tour with a smile about your adventure. Love your paddle boards and especially the timelapse during the night at your paid but beautiful campsite.
That was fun. I like that we get both versions of the same event with Cory’s and yours.
So cool.
Me again. Another comment. You both have great confidence when you visit the towns. Good job.
5:20 lady casually eating a sandwich while you're all sick
Great videos! I Watch every week. You guys are fantastic.
Nice:) Looks warm down there, need to switch up my routine one of these days 😂
Glad you got to see the whales, sorry you had to feed them. Middle of a boat has the least wave action. Nice hats. Enjoy the journey Pancakers.❤
Has anyone told you that you two are dorks?! But totally adorable!!
Those hats are how that man makes a living. Here in the states I can see that hat being sold for 45 or 50.
Thanks for sharing with us
I am glad someone else had the same opinion about it…most people don’t know the effort to make them and sell them. It’s so unfair that these young people don’t appreciate the value of their hard work. And the audacity of still saying: “I am so proud of myself” 😡 for being so cheap.
digestive enzymes for motion sickness. Works amazing
I'm sorry you got sick. I've never gotten sick, but my husband has, and I did empathize with him. I'm sure you enjoyed seeing the whales anyway. Probably shouldn't go deep sea fishing unless you take something for motion sickness. 😊 skip the boat, just fish with the locals from the shore. They are so kind and will teach you everything.
Next time you do a boat ride I have one word for you…. DRAMAMINE !
love you videos natalie and jimmy ashley bristol uk
It’s nice to see that Nat doesn’t go around wearing thong swimsuits like most other female TH-camrs, just to get more subscribers. It’s good to see that you guys have some self-respect.
Do not feel bad to get sea sick. I was on 3 Navy ships and most everyone gets sick the first couple weeks. Then in ocean so rough you have trouble walking, 70 present have some sea sickness. 5 present are in bed. I witnessed 3 sailers have it so bad, they took them off ship. 10 years ago, took my family to Vancouver Canada. Water got rough and family sick hanging on table. I still had my sea legs and was walking around and dancing. Family did not think it was funny. But thanks, always enjoy your videos.
Be careful in the sand with bare feet where there is dog Doo. It is rare but there's a very weird fungus you can get from the dog feces that causes severe infections. I would clean your feet after being in the sand. What a beautiful place to camp and enjoy. Sorry you got sick whale watching. I probably would too in a small boat. Love you guys ❤
🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Awesome stuff guys.
Looks like a little bit of Heaven to me. I have seen this place via other You Tubers, both by van and by boat. The reviews seem universally great.
Have your primary care physician give you a prescription for the little motion sickness Band-Aids that you put on behind your ears🎉 you do have to have a prescription the last you a lifetime and come in very handy
Such a hoot to see you out communing with the whales. But you really do need Gravol to get through it ... I live on Vancouver Island and whale watching is a huge thing here, so I know of which I speak!
Seeing the whales are awesome! …but if u get seasick it’s not fun! Thanks for taking us all along! ❤
Ginger snaps are your friends on a boat the cookies will keep you from motion sickness
When you were on the beach with the clam shell, I had a flashback on when you were 4. We were at Folly Beach and you found a hermit crab and played with it for a long time. When it died, you came running to your Mom. She comforted you by telling you that you gave that little crab more love that it ever had in its whole life. Your smile was priceless!
good video and having your friend makes it better but Mexico is really cool..............
They called that "calling the gators" when I hung over the side. I get horribly sea sick. It sucks so bad! I feel for you all.
Try to remember the whales & forget chumming the ocean. Did you get lots of locals bringing food and stuff to sell? We loved that when we were there.
Dog friendly means you still clean up after your dog.
😂❤❤❤ we ❤ Nat, she is pragmatic and so honest.
12-volt air pump either that or get an adapter for your tire pump that most vanlife people carry
@jus,
Many jump-boxes (for starting a dead engine battery) come with a tire-inflator.
I'm kind of new here. How did you two meet (if you don't mind me asking)? hmmm?
Should have kept your eye on the shore line if you were able to see it.....or get some meds for it.
I'd be right there with you - dramamine is my friend when I have to get on a boat...
During spring break that beach is wall to wall Mexican tents, ice cream trucks, and water trucks.
the weather looked warm and great............im mid 60"s and wanna go now.............we only live once right...........
I would have been hugging the railing during Whale watching too…..but being up close and personal with those glorious creatures more than makes up for it….Jimmy , perfect headgear for Mexico….you are now a true Mexican visitor….also Jimmy’s dismount off the back of the garage was an Olympic audition for sure…I am loving this trip…Mexico’s sunsets are epic and feel like a big hug….tytyty
Hello, we follow you now from switzerland. We do overlanding in Europ (not yet fulltime) but your Videos are great because you are sooo natural! Enjoy you life and thanks to take es along👏🍀🌻👏🤗
Are you vlogging your trips? I’d be interested in following your channel if you do!
Hahaha guys yo should take a dramamine before get in to the boat ❤
When we were in Mulege many of the streets were underwater.
Did the vendor ever say "Almost Free" ? 🤩😀
Beautiful video!
Our caravan is headed down to Baja this weekend!! We're so excited!
@it,
We caravan everyplace.
Great Video...thanks for sharing!
As a child I always got car sick. Some one suggested that I suck on a fresh lemon. I did that and I never got motion sickness again. On any trip I always take a fresh trusty lemon. Try it next time. Awesome trip so far. Had been hoping you would travel to Mexico.Beautiful and exciting so far. 🙏👍💞
I have motion sickness too. It's such a curse it sucks.
It looks like you all was having fun, even though you guys got the bubble guts.
Next time, for any extended boat ride, take Dramamine at least two hours before leaving shore. Benedryl works too, but can make you drowsy. I’m suggesting this as a scuba diver who often got sea sick.
Chumming the waters... been there.
Sorry you had to feed the whales.
Rip to those who don't get this
Jimmy your the stud muffin in that hat. Natileeis just the Muffin. Good deal on the hats
I also get easily seasick so I take "Dramamine" before getting in a boat and it's been really effective for me. Try it the next time you plan a boat trip. Glad to see the whales ❤ showed up and that you guys are still having fun.
Glad y’all are feeling better.
Where are
Wedding
Plans
We will
Wat h
Que empiece la diversión 🚐🇲🇽👑
Lmao Jimmy called Natalie a whale
Love you guys, sorry about the sea sickness, nothing worse.
❤
Once in a life time spot to camp!! beautiful
It's not Baja peninsula, it is THE California peninsula. The state in the US should be Alta California or the Upper land of the California peninsula. The state is called Baja California, however the Mexicans never intended to name the state Baja, that was because after the war we're the US stole haft of the Mexican territory, the US appropriated the name California and dropped the Alta or Upper forcing the Mexicans to add Baja to the territory of the California peninsula.
@serg,
'Frontier'.
Oh you guys! I’m so sorry you got ill🙁
So sorry about your motion sickness. One trick that doesn't work for everyone is to keep your eyes on the horizon as much as possible. It's possible you won't have that problems again. I was a US Navy flight instructor at one time, and whenever a student would start to get woozy, I would have the student take the controls. Next time, ask the driver to let you take the tiller. 😁
Lord Jesus, thank you for moving in our lifes. I believe in you and the work you have done on the cross. You Jesus our my Lord and Savor. If you confess with your mouth to one another you shall be saved.
???
You probly paid tourista on the hats but none the less still a bargain. And the whales are such a treat. I like running into them up here in British Columbia before they take their winter vacation down in Mexico. Great vid guys.
Are you kidding?? You’ll get those in California or Florida for $50 dlls.!! Small little towns in Mexico have to pay high prices just for transportation…if they make them themselves, it might take a full day per hat. You live in the past! So unfair he went back with $520 only when the guy had said $600, already $50 less than regular…I hate cheap tourists. They should only travel in the US😡
I hate to be honest but, the longer you are in mexico the more dangerous it becomes.......many Americans say the same.
@joh,
Almost every winter for over six decades, we caravan over from Oregon.
Zero issues.
.
Your 'honest hate' is misinformation.
Such a beautiful place ❤
Enjoy!!! Stay safe!!!
Strike that, reverse it.....
BAjAHAHAHA
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jimmy & Natalie - the Origin Story (maybe)? :)
Awesome videos sorry I’m soo late
Really enjoying your series. Bummer about the seasickness, I always take a tablet if it looks to be rough. For some reason in the video you seemed to be trying to justify why you are paying to camp. I would have thought supporting the local communities was a good thing. Glad you bought the hats, they are great for keeping the sun off.
You two are so cute! I just started watching your videos today. I love how down to earth you are. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

Dramamine 😜
🌊🤢🤮Try 30 minutes before travel time Bonine chewables! They work great! 🐳
My dad & a friend used to hunt Manta Rays by harpoon from a little rowing dinghy in the 1920s, from San Felipe. The Rays bigger than their boat. Unfortunately Japanese commercial fishing decimated the Mantas but I think it's a reserve now..
Decimate -- reduce by ten percent.
I think it was much closer to 90% - to be more Exact! @@largemarge1603
Glad you got to experience the whales. Should carry peppermint with you for seasickness.
Get yourselves a rechargeable SUP pump. Total game changer. The expense is definitely worth it!! I was tired just watching you lol
Tip…sharks vs dolphins.
Dolphins…dorsal fin travels up and down in the water.
Sharks…dorsal fin travels in a straight line “through” the water. It’s in how they swim if ya think about it. Also, when dolphins are around…sharks are generally not.
This comes from 30 years as a coastal flats wade-fisherman where I encounter both with some frequency👍
My new favourite channel!
Aw, thank you!! 💚
mmm…oven yum😋
Fun video!
