[@Convert_and_explore]

Thank you, I appreciate that

[@hughbrittan779]

Very interesting video. Great T-shirt.

[@Mryoutubeuk]

I’m his number 1 fan, think I’ve seen him wear that in some of his other videos. Very stylish

[@Convert_and_explore]

Thanks, yeah it was a hand me down from a guy that earns way too much money!

[@user-op3oz1tm1v]

Very informative, thank you

[@Convert_and_explore]

Thanks

Really good video.
You could roll out some good vids in a van without even moving.
What it's like staying in a van, what we do in a van.
People love all that crap😂
Lights out cinema on 🎥. It would be a good watch.
Gives people chance to get to know the 3 of you. A van tour.
I know you done the cost of being things.
Van life is really interesting.
Tell me about your mic mucker.
I need to buy one and don't know anything about it.
Again kit review is good.
I can't do a kit review because I just use to crappy phones.😁
I'm going to start picking some bits up now though.
You could roll out so many vids and get noticed quicker.
You'll get there soon.😉👍
Hope you are all good.👋

[@Convert_and_explore]

Thanks mate, I was a bit sceptical to make it as it’s definitely a boring video for anyone that isn’t interested In van electrics 🤣
Yeah you are right, it’s just finding the motivation to make all them videos and to be honest my heart wouldn’t be in it and it would be obvious. I prefer travelling around and being an idiot haha.
I’m in the process of buying another mic because I currently only have 1 and with 2 of us filming it just doesn’t work. I’m using the DJI pocket 3 to film everything, it’s fantastic, and the mic is the DJI Mic 2. I have a couple of Amazon special mics for the iPhone though and to be honest they work really well.
I was thinking about continuing the kit reviews etc. but I’ve seen it happen to other channels, where they build up a subscriber base through doing one thing (building vans for example) then they go travelling and people just aren’t interested in watching anymore. We’ll see though mate.. going to do a few more trips first and see what happens 🤙🏽
When are you next off out?

[@Convert_and_explore]

I could always do the ‘someone tried to break in whilst we were asleep’ video that everyone has done 🤣

[@JamieHarding5]

@Convert_and_explore
I know🤦🏻🤣
I don't know how many camping vids I've seen with the thumbnail "what's that's noise" or something like, I nearly died!
You should just wear a bra and get your boobies out.😄 That's works.
You are picking up nicely. Every vid will pick you up a few.👍
I'm watching your channel with interest. 😁😉👍
I'll catch you new vid tonight.
Just watched opening few seconds. Really cool.👍

[@Convert_and_explore]

That’s exactly what I said to Zara, if I was a bird in a bikini I’d be rich by now 😂

[@JamieHarding5]

@Convert_and_explore
Good to know on the mics.
I think you got the right idea in getting out and playing. 😁
I much prefer to watch that.
When you get lazy you can always fall back on something inside the van.
I'm out most weekends doing something. Not always filming. Probably putting a video up of Blorenge tomorrow or Thursday not sure. Two big ponds there, had a swim. Getting in to that now.
I've been doing one vid a week but slowly it down to every other week.
It's easier for me then and I get to enjoy it a bit more.
I have some bigger hiking ones starting next month, I'll combine them with a wild camp and see how they go with
better weather and sunrise.
Doing some up Snowdon area and then England. I've only done one in England.
I love it there and need to get that way soon. Looking forward to doing Scarfell Pike and many others.
Watch your vid tonight.
Keep having fun.💪👍
