- Hi! I’m Christine 🙋🏼♀️ After working for many years in sales and business ownership, I felt major burnout 😵💫 I sold my houses, extra cars, and most of my belongings. Now I'm happier than ever having very few material things. I travel living out of my vehicle. In 2022 my old and blind best friend, Chase the Dog, joined me on my travels 🐶 We roam the USA looking for adventure, food, and fun! I'm never sure what the future holds. Join the adventure and find out with me! 🤩
Learn how I make delicious French press coffee while on the road. This is a very simple setup that works for camping too!

Just a suggestion, when making coffee in the French press, any longer then 4 minutes releases the acids from the grounds and makes the coffee bitter. I learned also to add raw honey to both sweeten it and add nutrients to my coffee, it also mellows it out and makes it taste smooth. Give it a try and see if you like it, change is good. 😃 Stay safe and take care.
This is great information! The honey addition sounds delicious! 🍯😋
Hi Christine. I am glad I discovered your channel. I also love my coffee first thing in the morning. Without coffee I just don't wake up...
Nothing like that first sip of coffee in the morning. With a sunrise too, amazing!!
Couldn't agree more!
So organized and efficient ...not only presetting the coffee gig...but right down to ensuring an eastern perspective and eyes open a half hour prior to the event... 😃
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback! 🙏
Keep making videos Christine. Thanks for sharing your joy with us all. This is my favorite new channel
Thank you for the encouragement! 🙏😊
Doesn't it feel awesome to stay in something u built looks comfy 😉!
I go super lazy for my coffee, both folgers and maxwell house have single brew bags, I prefer folgers. At home I fill my cup with water and dunk the brew bag then 3minutes in the nuke and its ready to kick start my system. The used bag goes in a 2lb peanut butter jar of water with several other used bags to make cold brew for iced coffee... On the road I either heat up some cold brew or make a fresh cup in my light weight imusa cup.. I have WAY to many cooking implements in both my rigs, multiple types of stoves, pots cast iron pans, griddles, cups. I use the pint imusa cup a LOT, it heats quick, will hold a pack of ramen or a couple scrambled eggs (Ive actually cooked scrambled eggs in it over 2 tea candles! I find a lot of vanners myself included arent fastidious about cleaning after cooking
Wow...I never thought to use tea candles to cook but that's a good idea!
Having the butane stove on in your van to make coffee does not require additional ventilation but its always good keep moisture out you setup. I wouldn't sleep with it on either. Just a fyi.
Thanks for the info!
❤❤
Interesting, I may give it a try.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I bet u get good gas mileage with that van versus these other big vans out there u went about it all the right ways your pretty bada__ little lady love your style just be safe out there!
Nice😍
Thanks!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Very nice, if you like French Press! I like drip coffee better, so got a 12V plug in 4 cup coffee pot. Brew while driving, or stopped if you have the juice. Only drawback is the carafe is glass - will be looking for a steel carafe instead. BTW raspberry plants love coffee grounds!
I do love drip coffee too! 🤩 I didn't know that about raspberry plants! Thanks for the tips! 😃🙏🏼
@@ChristineMeachum You're so welcome! Wish I'd had the chance to start with the van tripping at your age - will appreciate it all the more when I do! You're an inspiration.
Instead of a coffee pot I use a 12v kettle that can make up to 1 Liter of hot water. Then I make pour over coffee. I find it easier to clean up by just putting the grounds in a small trash bag by just picking up the filter from the cone. When I’m finished I pour the rest of the hot water into a thermos for later uses.
Jeepers, when I do is take a sip of water, go to the bathroom, and grab a bottle of cold brewed coffee to drink
Love your videos sis💓 Just needs to speak alil louder or put the phn closer🤔😉😘 Love you💋
Thanks for letting me know! ❤️ I’m working with a new microphone that I haven’t totally figured out yet! 🤪
By the way, here in South Africa we call a French press a plunger.
I did not know that! That's an interesting fact 😁
I enjoy your videos, love coffee ☕ too & it's a AM 🔆 must! I'm planning a few SUV 🚌 camping trips in future & was wondering how long a butan canister lasts you. I plan to use one about the same way. Do you also keep a few extra ones on hand? Thanks!
Hi 👋 Thanks for watching! As a very rough average I would say a butane can lasts me about 15 meals or times boiling water. Yes, I always keep a spare can on hand. I do not want to be in a scenario where I don’t have fuel to make my morning coffee 🤣
@@ChristineMeachum Thank you! I have 5 coffees in the AM so I'll need to buy a case at a time. 🙆♂️
😋💘
Hey Christine! This video was suggested today so I watched it. I've only been following from the mor recent ones in the car. Why did you decide to get away from the van to the car? Just curious.
What kind of coffee grounds do you use for the French press?
I am the same except I use an Aeropress. Thanks for another excellent video.
Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼
