Love the new van. For me it’s about getting out to the locations, not any macho bs about being wet, or cold , and suffering. I get bushcraft but I’m in my 70’s now and camping in comfort is important to me. Staying warm, dry, and hydrated, along with enjoyable food in incredible settings is where it’s at.
It’s the same Weka. Abe keeps him in a box of its own to all of his camps. It’s the Weka that does the dish cleaning, not the method Abe would have us believe.
Thanks for the man with the van camp Abel. Some may prefer tent camping however I enjoy all of the adventures you share with us. From tent to shelter to van, each has its own attraction. I'm looking forward to watching you fitting out your new van and it will be great when you are able to take some more comforts of home out on the road to those isolated spots. You will need to get yourself some wheel chains if you are going to take it into the snow next Winter me thinks. Pity about the tarp tearing Abel. With a roof rack and a new, bigger tarp, you may not even have to invest in an awning. Please accept this $25.00 as my appreciation for the work you do to bring us your high quality videos of your beautiful country mate. Wishing you, Victoria and Penelope the merriest of Christmases and the happiest of New Years. PS. I don't even mind the sponsor commercials mate. If more viewers gave you a super thanks, even the cost of a cup of coffee, you probably wouldn't need sponsors.
Nice van! Can't wait to see more camping with it and to see Victoria and Penelope come along too! Love the curtains and how easy they are to close and open. Sorry about the tarp! It went through some wicked weather on some of the camps, so it served you well! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and the whole family!
Your resilience and spirit are truly inspiring, Abel and Victoria! 🌧️🚐 Watching you brave the heavy rain and still manage to find cozy moments is incredible. Keep sharing your amazing adventures!
Great idea on doing van camps. It will allow your viewers to see more of New Zealand. Almost to hit 100k. You've worked hard building your channel and did a great job.
The van befits you. So glad you are enjoying it. And yes, would love to see you roasting your coffee beans as you seem to definitely enjoy your coffee. A happy new year to you and Victoria and your little bundle of you. Thanks for sharing your adventures with all of us. A subscriber in the USA.
Wow Abel!!!!! The Man with a Van”!! What a surprise to see you today. Congratulations on finding the right Van!! That is fantastic. I am having a celebratory beer with you!! This is going to be so great. You burgers going. Double burgers with all the fixings and I love pickles!! They look fantastic. And my favorite pancakes in the morning!!! It looks very cozy in there. You will figure out the warmth part. Cracking windows, using small fans , and it will cool down. You have a constant smile on your face. That is so cool. Best regards to Victoria and Penelope!!! Merry Christmas to all of you!!!! Take care Abel!!
Van Life!! Hey, it's way better than when you have a tent with a wood stove in it. That's almost like just watching you live at home for a day, I don't watch those.
Great camping out in the rain ... Also yummie food ! 👍👍 A lot of room inside the van , plenty to have a comfortable sleep ! Do you lock all doors during the night , with regards to any unwanted visitors ? Yep , love to see a trip in the snow ( snow storm ) in this van mate ! It'll be really cosy in there . Just bring a good book ? Or watch a film , lying in your sleeping bag ... enjoying a stubby or 2 . Merry X-mas to you and your loved ones and of course your friends ... And all the very best for 2025 ! 🎉🎉🎉 , Stay healthy and never stop making trips for us all ! With love to you and your family & God Bless , Helen Catherine 🙏🙏🙏🌲🌲🦌🎅🎁🎁🎁🤶🦌🌲🌲🍾🍾🥂🥂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love your new van.It looks like the right size for day camps.I side awning would finish it off or a 270 awning so you have cover on the side and rear 👍If its covered on the rear then you could have a slide out kitchen inside your bed.Just a thought 👍
The wickers were so glad to see you. I love pickles, onions, tomato and Miracle Whip on my burger. Congratulations on the van. Need to make bed situation for Victoria and baby girl too.
For the van it would be to get some under body protection if it does not already have it, nothing crazy just to stop the bumps and rocks as even easy tracks can have surprises. Also some type of ventilation or window covers so you can get some fresh airflow as I car camp and it can get hot so I leave my window down a touch (bugs not so much an issue). You can do a seat inside and have it as a storage bin so space is used efficiently. Great stuff mate excited for you and the family
Nice one m8, you’re onto a winner with that van it’ll soldier on forever. A minutes silence required for the Alton tarp, it’s served you well. Great first camp in the van and as always, great to see Man & Weka in perfect harmony! All the best for Xmas & New Year!
Congratulations Abel! Love the new van, it has tons of potential. Consider some sort of rumble seat for your little daughter for when she’s old enough to do a family camp. I have friends in America who fixed up a van like a camper. They travel all over the country in retired life. You will enjoy this!
Never had a single major mechanical issue with my Hiace or Delica. The dealer/manufacturer warranties are pretty legit here in Japan. Now don't get me wrong, it make take some time, but they'll fix it eventually hahaha. That's more due to parts and doing it by the book. Plus you have JCI and they're pretty good with that inspection and makng sure your car is roadworthy. Here, you're considered a professional driver and so vehicle maintenance is emphasized. Only thing to keep an eye out for is flood parts. After the Great Kanto Earthquake and tsunami, 100,000s of cars were damaged and shady dealers pulled parts from them for resale to foreign markets. I'd inspect any part you may have to import. The Hiace is a workhorse around here though so you should be pleased.
Hi Abel, Victoria and baby Penelope. Abel having the van will expand your camping experiences across NZ. Thank you for sharing its first day out. It will be lovely for your two girls to accompany you on these trips; Victoria will love to be able to go with you. I love the van, its always interesting how people kit them out I will looking forward to your additions as you work out what is important to you. I think a tarp is always handy whether or not you install an awing. Thanks again for a fantastic 2024 and we will looking forward to 2005. Merry Christmas to you and Victoria and Penelope.
Nice looking van, and it looks in really good shape. Merry Christmas to u, Victoria, and our daughter. I hope the new year brings health and prosperity to you.
Love that your van is a Toyota! That thing will run forever. Same with Honda's. You've got to stop making those awesome burgers, Now I'm going to have to go in and make me one,lol. I love those weka birds. They seem to like you Abel. They're waiting for you to drop some crumbs for them. Your set up is so relaxing and cozy! Thanks for sharing. I really appreciate you ❤
I think the wekas like you. They seem to follow you everywhere you go lol😂. I like the van, it's cool and the way you have it set up. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas! Now you get to be Santa 👍.
Love your van camping for Xmas with the pancakes and maple syrup as that’s what I have had and never eat Weka as we love our native birds. Merry Xmas Abel, Victoria and gorgeous little baby as I forgot her name. 🎄xxx
cracking video as always fella! hope you and your little family have many memorable trips etc in the new van. keep safe and have a merry Xmas in new zealand!🎉 kenny fae Scotland 😂😂👍👍❤️❤️🏴
Hey haven't commented in a bit, gotta catch up on ur vids, really miss em. Anyway hope you and the family are well 😊 merry Christmas ❤from Michigan 🎄❄️
Have a joyous and safe Christmas, Abel, Victoria, baby and your families, best wishes from Western Australia. All the best for the coming New Year and we will be following along as usual oh yes, P.S. love the van also!
FRED! (..thought I'd be viewer #593 to mention it lol). Had a van for two years, the space inside is really all I need...until I saw this vid. Tarp search underway.
Great to see you've discovered the fun of camper vans! We have a VW California...12 years from new now...and absolutely LOVE it! You can park in a city and pull the blinds and you're in your own little home, with heating, sink fridge and two hob stove. Or you can do as you do and go wild camping....has 3 batteries for all the gear to work. Yours looks much better for off track and dirt though and its lovely and small. Perfect! Yourselves and AB Camping have two great vans there!!!
@@AbelandVictoria I'd leave it minimal as it's a smaller van but you looked perfectly comfy with your small table in there. A fridge and a good awning and rear tarp and you'd be set! Transit is indeed a bigger van. The VW T5's an T6's are slimmer and perfect, but only in 4WD using a system that is very heavy. VW T3 Sychros are like your van...small and great off-load!
Merry Christmas to you and your family. Hubby and I have bought a Toyota Hiace SLWB for my husbands business but on weekends we convert it into a camper. We love it. Happy Van Camping. Looking forward to more van outings and to see how you set your van up.
Hey Able love the Van .there is so much potential for camping for sure .I am excited for you I would love to have that opportunity big time .I was a little surprised that there wasnt as many on the clock for the age ,I thought there be more ,an 4wheel drive, you can fix how low the Van is no problem, you have done well ,when you had your say about neg people saying it's not camping etc, you said it was a Van test I had to put the captions on BC I thought you said Its a Vangilantie 🤣🤣🤣🤣anywho great camp. I did yell out to you no to put the back down but ,you being in NZ and Me in Aus you didn't hear me 🤔😂I Can't wait to see more with this project ,I am very Interested. Sending lots love to you Victoria and Penelope ❤GODBLESS 🙏
Pretty sure this is my first time ever commenting on a video. Been watching quite a long time. Not quite sure why but I really enjoyed this one. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy them all but this one was just super chill and peaceful. Love the new van. That’s killer! Those burgers were kicking it. Ya gotta learn to appreciate the crispness of lettuce and onion 😂. I love me some burgers with all that, mayo, ketchup, mustard and some tomatoes and even some crispy bacon
Awesome camp dude in the van looks so cool on a camp project camp van like it. Merry xmas, see you in New Year, keep vids up looking forward to see the vans progress along the way far OUT!!!
Hey Mr Burger 🍔 & a pancake🥞lover man ! I always loved to watch you eating burgers and pancakes with so much satisfaction on your face uttering " Oh man" !! 😊 You are a happy jolly person! God bless! ❤ Btw, you left your pet birds behind! Go pick them up so you would not feel lonely in your next camp!😅
It’s almost like all those rainstorms and blizzards were just a hazy distant memory already….. please don’t leave tent life forever. Have the best Christmas you 3!
Absolutely love your videos. Informative but also entertaining. We watch them from here in Ireland ( bit disappointed you never mention our country as you would love it here!!!). One thing fascinates us outside of your expert commentary.... those gorgeous birds, Wicker? If you get a chance in some future video please tell us a bit more about them Best wishes Philip and Jacqui Ireland
Merry Christmas to you and your family! I’m beginning to think you bring that Weka with you everywhere you camp. 🤣🤣 A video of your roasting adventures would be great. Take care!!
This van is perfect. And just a overall great van-camp video. Looking forward to more of these. How hot is it during the daytime/nighttime Celsius around this time of the year? Here in norway we have -15C with 17M/S wind and it just makes the camp so hard lol
It’s really good that you talk about the wild life of NZ as I live in the UK it’s really interesting, I have 2 brothers that live in Dunedin , I follow your adventures as the weather is similar to the weather here , I also have a camper VW T6 called Bobby thanks for your videos

I liked this camping trip very much!❤
Great video Abel, merry Christmas to you and Victoria and baby ❤🎅
Hope to see more vids in the van
Absolutely love your videos. Informative but also entertaining. We watch them from here in Ireland ( bit disappointed you never mention our country as you would love it here!!!).
One thing fascinates us outside of your expert commentary.... those gorgeous birds, Wicker?
If you get a chance in some future video please tell us a bit more about them
Best wishes Philip and Jacqui Ireland
I’ll do some research on the weka lol
Nice video, love you and Victoria!
Merry Christmas, Abel, and Victoria!! 🎄🎁🎊
Great to see a beer or two being enjoyed too! ....no fizzy drinks...LOL! ;-)
I have a VW Caddy Maxi... single bed, compressor fridge, Jackery and an awing😊
That's mint ,love it and the beers are back 🎉🎉
Merry Christmas to you and your family!
I’m beginning to think you bring that Weka with you everywhere you camp. 🤣🤣
A video of your roasting adventures would be great. Take care!!
Hi Abel and Victoria I wish you a happy Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2025😊
This van is perfect. And just a overall great van-camp video. Looking forward to more of these.
How hot is it during the daytime/nighttime Celsius around this time of the year? Here in norway we have -15C with 17M/S wind and it just makes the camp so hard lol
Currently temps are 25/30 highs and lows about 10. It’s about hot for me give me -15 any day
@ ahh that’s too much even for me. But do you really want 15- C with about 20m/s amount of wind? You’re a beast in that case
Merry Christmas!!
Fantastic video watched it 3 times already
It’s really good that you talk about the wild life of NZ as I live in the UK it’s really interesting, I have 2 brothers that live in Dunedin , I follow your adventures as the weather is similar to the weather here , I also have a camper VW T6 called Bobby thanks for your videos
