I love the pillow idea. That’s where I can keep my hoodies. Great video. I have that ladder. It is awesome! Once I learned how to use it. I had my hands where your feet go when I let it down it came down so fast it bruised one hand and broke the other.
Thanks for sharing these hacks. While I’m waiting for my camper van, I’ve watch quite a few vids but they are all pretty similar to each other. You really shared some tips that I’ve never seen and never thought of. Great job!
Your van is the best .....your presentation was great ...so have fun stay safe.....cheers from Melbourne ....your dog is gorgeous I wouldn't go anywhere without mine....🚐🥂🐕🎿
Hey, just found your channel, I love top ten items. I have watched many, all good, but yours is unique in that the items are more practically based as opposed to personal preference. I am not on the road yet, converting a short-bus. Like I said I am not dissing any of the other videos, just pointing out the difference, great tips. If I had to chose a favorite, the blankets in pillow cases, excellent use of space for extra items you can use in two ways.
Loved all these hacks! I would definitely incorporate some of them in my sticks and bricks home - like the pillow hack and Tupperware. Y’alls videos are great and edited perfectly. Also, while I thought the blooper reel at the end of other videos was great, after seeing this video I think I kinda like it better when the blooper stays in the scene! Makes you guys more down-to-earth that you keep those blunders in there, lol. There’s already millions of videos on here edited to look like everyone is perfect. The way you guys do your videos feels much more authentic- hence I love to watch them! 😊
@@johnviv3956 aww no problem! I don't hit the like on many videos but this one definitely got it. I'm definitely going back to this video when im ready to build out.
I think this mirror is a great idea for others to implement. Having a fixed mirror may be dangerous in rough roads as it may shatter and hurt the occupant(s).
I know this is an old video but do you remember where you bought the Tupperware? I contacted them and they said they've never had collapsible containers.
We have 4 cats that spend a lot of their napping time on our bed. Our "permanent" bedspread is a sheet. It's easier to wash when needed. I expect when our camper gets converted, the bed will have a sheet on top as well. We're planning to take one cat w/ us. The others don't travel. Being in our car freaks them out.
Just found his video, thanks for the tips! I'm just wondering how you lock your skis to the van and if you think they are safe leaving them outside the van in winter? And is there a way to convert it back to a roof deck in summer?
Good question! Our ski rack locks with a key and we have had no problems leaving them on the roof. We decided not to do a roof deck, but it would be easy to remove the ski rack and put a couple deck pieces up there!
I got that very same spotted stool at Target last week. The instructions stuck on it show that you are supposed to stand with your feet going "across" the bendable part, not as you are in this. I guess it's in case that it's not completely locked open, so be careful ...
The shoe storage works great for us and is easy to access. Everything in a van requires extra work so it has not been an issue for us. I am sure there are other clever ways to store shoes that work great for other people!
As a English born English speaking person I cringe every time Americans/ Canadians say mirror! How is it they can only say meer? It's pronounced MIR ROR🙄
I'm blown away by the blanket in pillow idea!
Changed the game!
I saw someone who puy their clothes in pillow cases
Pretty smart.
They were great! Especially love the coaster idea for leveling.
Thank you!
That dog just falling asleep like that. He obviously loves you both very much
I love the pillow idea. That’s where I can keep my hoodies. Great video. I have that ladder. It is awesome! Once I learned how to use it. I had my hands where your feet go when I let it down it came down so fast it bruised one hand and broke the other.
Oh no! That's why I let John do it haha
Love the cutting board! And walkie talkies are a great idea.
Glad you like them!
We've tried several types of walkies, they lacked range and must be l9ne of sight? Didn't work in hilly fishing areas?
We have the same trouble with our ladder - we're lucky when it collapses. Love your bloopers too! You guys are fun to watch!
It was the blankets inside the pillows hack for me
Super inventive
Thank you!
Dang! That pillow hack is AMAZING
Adorable couple … you guys are funnnny and sweeeeet
Thanks for sharing these hacks. While I’m waiting for my camper van, I’ve watch quite a few vids but they are all pretty similar to each other. You really shared some tips that I’ve never seen and never thought of. Great job!
LOVE that mirror, that pillow is a great idea. The ladder is a great idea to help put a stop to thieves. All vans & RV should have em.
lol the ladder takes ! the concentration to get it right was too funny! Also the cutting board hack: genius!
The cutting board has been such a game changer! And the ladder bit makes us laugh every time haha
Blankets in pillows are genial!
I'll definitely be stuffing some blankets into pillows and... will be sure to keep an eye out for calypso-bill food containers =)
Your blankets in the pillow and the cutting board with legs hacks are brilliant! Thank you so much!
I love the blanket in the pillow cover. Brilliant.
Well done. Loved the bloopers you left in❣ Most definitely can use several of your hacks at home. Thank you 😊
Glad you like them!

Cool couple. I’d hang out with them. Good sense of humor
Thank you😊. My favorite is the pillows with blankets inside... This is great for my tiny house, too
I carry walker-talkies also! They are great esp if your cell service is sketchy

Awesome vlog. Can you tell me where you bought the spice racks?
Thanks
Amazon! There are more details in our van tour video!
I know this is an old video but do you remember where you bought the Tupperware? I contacted them and they said they've never had collapsible containers.
Great ideas and not just repeat what others said? Nice van!
May I ask if you have a link to your spice racks and magnetic knife holder?
Some great ideas#livingthedream
Thank you!

We totally understand that! I love that you also travel with your pets, it is so fun!
Love this! So inspiring! Makes me want to minimize ☺️
Go for it!

Hi can you tell me where you got the cutting board from thansk
Amazon! The link should be in the description!
How do you keep your fresh and grey water containers from building up massive amounts of mold??
Every time we empty the grey water, it gets rinsed out! Also we use a filter for our fresh water and the constant use keeps mold out.
A tip for the window coverings: if the fabric isn't waterproof, or anti-bacterial, you will get mold from moisture on the windows.
Great tip! Thank you!

Good to know! Thank you!
I thought he was a pillow until you pointed him out. lol
What pot is that?
Are you talking about the black water kettle? That is from Crate and Barrel!
You guys are so cute
Thank you!
👍👍
❤️❤️❤️,Ty ✌️🙏❤️🕯️🎈🌻😊
You are cute together❣️
ok hold up she is actualy so freaking pretty godamn
Life hack: mirror
This is accidental Alan Partridge material
I'm sorry but that shoe storage is way too hard to get to
The shoe storage works great for us and is easy to access. Everything in a van requires extra work so it has not been an issue for us. I am sure there are other clever ways to store shoes that work great for other people!

Good overacting in the end
