  • I Could Trade Van Life For Life On a Remote Island. Exploring Lucy Islands about 45 minutes from Prince Rupert BC. AMAZING VAN LIFE IN THE NORTHWEST OF BRITISH COLUMBIA.
    My name is Chrome i have been living in y cargo van for 6 years now. I started this lifestyle BROKE and IN DEBT and after 11 months of living the van life i cleared my debt and started to put my life back together and build for a better future. I have turned my original van into a badass camper van that is lifted with all the toys. Over the years i went from being broke and stealth camping in the city and sleeping at walmarts... to now, living fulltime in a jacked up van and driving deep off-grid into the backcountry and living life in the dirt. WOW LIFE HAS CHANGED.
    I now have a shop space to keep me busy through the winters here on Canada's westcoast. Went from Van Life to VAN LIFE + SHOP LIFE !!!!!! Come join this crazy van life journey of mine. HIT SUBSCRIBE, trust me its gonna be a WILD RIDE.

    They seem like very nice people everywhere you go. That was kind of him to take you out exploring in the boat and then dinner and homemade pie.

    I'm the double V guy in the truck! So happy I could put a smile on your face for once.
    I ran into Chrome a little later & hit him up for a chat. What a "freakin" nice guy.
    Thanks for all the awesome videos and what a treat to see Rupert through your lens.

    So glad to see you using a plate today, I was getting concerned seeing you throw food on various public tables - who knows what kind of dirt, germs and er other "matters" would be on those tables from just being outdoors.

    I'm renting a campervan for 8 days to travel throughout New England next month and my last full day in the van I plan to visit as many light houses as I can between Bar Harbor Maine and Portsmouth NH.
    Can't wait.
    I had planned to stay in hotels for this trip but I started watching this channel last winter and Chrome was my inspiration to book the van back in March instead.

    Now I'm wondering what the size of the space (in square centimeters) that Walmart is in and compare it to some of the older Walmart stores (Category 1) that are still open. Some Walmarts in the smaller towns are in buildings that measure 43,000 square feet (US measurement).

    EPIC day! Lucy is an outstanding place. Next trip, I will take you to explore a remote and stunning spot from a kayak, and hopefully Ken will join.

    I enjoyed this one. I was just visiting Prince Rupert a month and a half ago and it brought back lots of memories. The statement “I’m just a guy that 💩 in a bag” absolutely killed me! 😂 💀. Safe travels!

    Using a empty laundry bottle for a pee jug is smart. You will never accidentally drink from it and it is pre scented.

    Love the vintage boat. I just bought a vintage travel trailer to move into into full time. It'll be parked in one spot most of the time and I'll use my van for camping. I bought a 1974 12 foot long Cascade. Sooooo excited to move in!!!
