- A surreal moment in the trip as we say goodbye to the vehicle that made a trip like this possible. Who would have thought that a PRIUS could have taken us on such a crazy adventure!?

Wow, hard to believe it's over and a whole year has gone by. Congrats on the journey and I'm looking forward to whatever you get up to next. Especially the baby!
Thanks so much! We have a couple of big adventures ahead now! haha
4:29 Leah enters her most feral era and we are here for it
Welcome back! and a huge congrats on the achievement!!!!
Haha yeah she gets a little goblin-esk now and then 😅
That’s one hell of a baby moon you guys had! Congrats on getting all way!
Now the seats are back in so you can put the baby car seat in there!
Haha yeah that’s the idea! 😳😅
I can't believe it's the end, huge congrats to the both of you for doing such a wonderful job on this journey and letting us come along for the ride. Was great to see the continent through your eyes and I couldn't think of 2 better people to do it! Welcome home!
Awe this is so lovely! We are so lucky to be able to do this kind of trip and especially so to share it with all of you!
Big congrats to you both, I could cry! How does it feel to be home AND to have accomplished such a cool thing? Love ya'll!
We're SO lucky! Thanks for the lovely comment!
I cannot believe it's been a full year since you left for your epic trip, it's gone so fast! It feels like yesterday that I was watching you guys convert the Prius into a camper at your parents' house, and now you're already back! Thanks so much for sharing your journey, I have absolutely loved following it from start to finish. It became a little ritual for me to start every Sunday morning (I'm in Australia) with watching your new video whilst having breakfast, so comforting. I cannot wait to see what next adventure you will embark on, both baby wise and travel wise. Sending you lots of love from Sydney, Australia! ❤ P.S. I knew you two would make it and do the full year, was very happy when you could finally say "suck it, haters!" to the non-believers hehe 😉
Well thank you so much for this message! We;re so lucky to be able to do something like this and it's so special to be able to share it too! So thank YOU for being here and continuing to follow along. 🥰🥰🥰
You're right - the white camper you showed is darn cute!!
I've been catching up on your adventures, and you just released this video within 8 minutes of me catching up. Fun!
Wow that's perfect timing then! Thanks so much for being here!
Congrats, you two (three!) What an amazing adventure, way to rock it! All the best in the next chapter! 🙂
Thanks so much! 🙏🏼
I think the condensation was from the cooler/fridge. It probably evaporates the moister produced from cooling. Does it have a drain pan like most fridges? Or you can also check your AC hose in the car isn't leaking. Thanks for sharing your adventures with all of us! And have a great time back home.
They work just like a fridge, just with the weather change being cooler the moisture hasn’t evaporated away, more airflow/run the AC.
Also, I was thinking even though I know you haven’t been sleeping in the Prius a lot over the last few weeks, human occupancy causes interior humidity, which will condense on cold surfaces. And a car body is not insulated to prevent that.
Just my “man-splaining”. Congrats on getting home safe, loved your travels, and look forward to future adventures.
@@BryanB0308 That works also, but generally, it is more window focused, being this was down low under everything.
We're going to see if it happens again here over the next little while and the AC system is our next test for sure. Thanks for the comment!
@@LeahandLevi Though regarding the car, check the filter for the battery unit... at the rear passenger door, on the left should be a vent and behind that is where the filter is located.
Congratulations on completing your “navigating North America” adventure!! I’ve watched you for years, but the anticipation of every Saturday morning episode throughout this time, has been crazy! Couldn’t wait to watch what you’d been up to! I thought I’d be sad it’s “over” but I’m so excited to see you move back home, the baby, etc!! I was so bummed there was no “next time” trailer😂. You should both be so proud of yourselves!! And thanks again for sharing!❤
Thanks for commenting! the adventure continues and a new rig is on the way! 😬😬😉
Bro I can't believe I got as emotional as I did watching this end. Also, like where has the last year of my life gone?? ... Give me a moment while I have an existential break... I've watched every single Saturday (even tho not always commenting) it was engaging, beautiful, inspiring. Thanks for sharing with us. NGL if i said I didn't feel the overwhelming desire to change my life right now as well.
Yeah we’re feeling it right now… transitions are always hard but you don’t get the good stuff without going through some hard stuff right!?
@@LeahandLevi you're 💯 right
Congrats guys! I've been watching since the beginning, you have completed a pretty amazing journey!
Thank you for taking us along. What a wonderful adventure 🤗
I can’t believe it’s already been a year! Congratulations on an exciting journey, safe travel, and the little one ❤ Can’t wait to see what y’all do next!
Aww a whole year over! It has been so fun to watch your adventures. Xx
I adored coming along for this year of your adventures! I teared up throughout this video. You guys are so freaking great and did such an amazing thing! ❤
Aweee! 🥹🥹🥹 Stop it! 🥰🙏🏻
I just have to say, I love watching your videos and can’t wait for the adventures to continue. Thanks so much!
Well thanks for leaving this lovely comment! We are pretty excited for the next chapter and it’s going to be fun to share too! 🥰
Gah! Such great moments in this video. So bittersweet heading home! Why are my eyes wet!?!? ❤️❤️ you guys and can’t wait to see more adventures!
🎉🎉congrats! You'll enjoy the baby when it arrives! Have a great trip
Excited for the next chapter ❤ thanks for the inspiration sharing this whole adventure!
Thanks for being here! 🥰🙏🏻
Such an accomplishment! Kudos to your parents! You have a wonderful family! Looking forward to following along on more adventures❣️
Thanks for being here! 🥰
Wow, watching the build take down really feels final! Congratulations on having circumnavigated North America and taking us along for the ride!! Best wishes for settling back in and enjoying all the creature comforts of indoor life!
Congratulations on your successful year long journey! It sure doesn't seem like it has been 1 year but it has! Well done and it was all done safely. Amazing! I followed along and enjoyed your experiences. Thanks for sharing this unique adventure. 😃✨🎉
Thank you for being here! 🥰🙏🏼
Wow! What an adventure the two of you have been on. It's been great following you for the past few months of your journey. I look forward to the future!
Thanks for being here!
What an amazing journey! ❤
You guys are simply adorable!
Aaah congrats for this adventure! It was fun to be along for the ride :)
Can't believe it has been a year! Time truly fliesss. Glad you got to take the trip of a lifetime :)
This is so bitter sweet, but congratulations on completing your trip - cant wait for the babbbbyyyy!!!!! ✨✨✨✨✨✨
Congrats! It's been great to follow your journey (as well as the Future Proof channel blowing up) over the past few months so thank you for bringing us along. 💙
Hey thanks for being on both channels! It’s been a hell of a ride 😂
You guys are such a joy! I only just found you like. Week ago. Right at the end of your journey. Cant wait to go back and watch from the beginning!
Thanks Jon! We'll be making a wrap up video so that will be a good way to get a overview of what you missed haha
So bittersweet! The end of an era indeed, but a new one has already begun! Keep on rocking it
I'd love to see more of places each of you loved, as well as not so loved + why.
Congratulations you two. What an achievement. I loved following your adventures. Say hi to your folks for me and don’t worry about the small amount of water build up. That’s likely just condensation due to the cooler weather and high humidity combined with you being in the car so much. Enjoy being home!
Thanks Chris! It feels good to be back in the Cariboo 🥰👍🏻
Welcome home. Looking forward to seeing what you guys get up to next.
you both are adorable! Have enjoyed following you adventures!!
@Toyota: How are you _not_ sponsoring Levi & Leah??? Get on it! 🤠
😅😅😅
I’m going to miss your road trip extraordinaire! You feel like people who’d be fun, even if you were grumpy! That’s a lucky baby to have your family ready and waiting to heap love onto. Be safe and well. My Prius life starts this month - much love. ♥️
Enjoy! It’s such a great adventure! Onto the next one!
Mo!! 🥰 So adorable! Reminds me of that little cleaning robot on Wall-E hehe! Excited to hear about baby names! Guess you're full on voyagers!! What a feat!
We like it! Haha just something to call them until we know who they are you know?
Congratulations! I have enjoyed watching your trip.
Thank you! Another journey is on the horizon 🥰
Wooww you guys!!!! Unreal!!! Hole circle!! Isn’t it beautiful when cycles end? Meaning a purpose, work, objective, and outcome unfold all in the way it for you.
I am so proud and happy for you guys!!! And of course, big thank you! For sharing all this adventure so gracefully with all of us!!! We love it!! We love you guys!!
What’s next?? Meaning will we still have videos coming ?? Neither less to say we hope so!!!
Thanks again for such an amazing trip, all of it, the documentation, everything so amazing. I have little memories of each of your videos!!
But like Leah said, not the end but the beginning of a new era/cycle. And we’ll be right here following along!!
Salute!! And look at that Prius!! What a rager!!! 🤪🫶✌️✌️
Well thanks for being here! We're so lucky to have been able to make this trip happen and it's partly because of people like you following along! 🥰
Yes pleas do a year in review video. So crazy how fast a year can go. Congrats on completing your journey. Can’t wait to see what is ahead.
I remember when you posted the first video announcing the trip and converting the car and WOW can’t believe it’s been a year already! I THOROUGHLY enjoyed every video. Thank you for documenting
And thanks so much for watching! Having comments like this kind of make it all worth it tbh 🥰
Last stretch of THIS journey and the beginning of the next, eh? Can't believe it's been a year! Love you guys
Thanks for being here! 🥰🥰🥰
Well that's the end of an era. What a year it's been, hey? I've thoroughly enjoyed living vicariously through your exploits and I wish you all the very best for the next chapter. Love and blessings to you both, and your families, gorgeous people. ♥
Thanks so much! 🥰🥹
So, that’s a wrap?
Thank you for a full year of entertainment and curiosity. I enjoyed every shared moment of your journey. The journey ends but a big new adventure awaits. What perfect timing with the pregnancy. Baby left Canada with dad and came home with mum. Congratulations. We all are hoping to follow along with you for your transformation from free spirit couple to parents.
Thanks for sharing your odyssey. (So glad you and the amazing Prius arrived home safely).
Thanks so much! And yes... many adventures to come now! 😬😂
I can’t believe it’s over! So fun! I want a Prius now! Can’t wait to see what’s next for you!
Haha they’re an epic car but wear protection unless you want to end up like us 😜
@@LeahandLevi BAHA noted hahaha
Congratulations on your EPIC year of travel.
Our first trailer was a fiberglass trailer called a Trillium it was made in Canada around 1978 and it's still in great shape. Highly recommend for a small family and they are so lightweight!
I really loved watching your adventures, but you both are such a cute couple I can't wait to see you as a family! I could be your mom!! What a journey to show you little one once he/she has grown a bit. Love you guys!!! You did something I could never do and survived your marriage too!!!! ❤❤
Haha well thanks for the vote of confidence! A lot to learn still 🥰
I don't want it to end! 🥺 I look for your video every Saturday! Glad you are home safely though. Will you move back into your old apartment??
We will still be uploading every Saturday still! Lots of plans in the works!
Congratulations on an epic adventure.
I was half expecting this video to end when you attempted to close the Prius and your audience (aka camera) fell over 🤣 🤣 🤣. comedy ending with an iris out exit.
super enjoyed your travels guys 🥰👍👍. looking forward to the next chapters of L&L adventure let's go!! 🤩 👏
Low key a bit sad it’s the end of your journey. I watched every single episode! Glad you’re home safe and onto the next adventure!
A revisit of that earlier video where you listed off the things you wish you did different in the prius and see if you agree or what changed throughout the year would be fun, glad to see you back home in BC! #westcoastbestcoast
Ooiooooohhh ok I like that idea!
Welcome back to Ciento Mille Casa :) Really enjoyed following your journey. :)
As the owner of a Prius, you two proved it can be done. I won't be doing this in my car (claustrophobia!), but it can be done and enjoyed for an epic adventure. Congrats to you!
Haha it isn't for everyone! Great to hear from a fellow Prius owner 🙋🏻♂🥰
From a fellow Victoria dweller, 🎉Welcome home!!🎉😊! It’s been very inspiring, watching you, because I have always wanted to circumnavigate North America! I’m on the other side of parenting (all my kids are 18+, my partner and I mystified about where time goes, ha ha) and we are two again, or with our baby adults, who have inherited our love of travel. I’m excited for your upcoming adventures. And I think your child is very fortunate in their parents!
This means a lot! We’ve got a lot to learn and experience but that’s kind of the point I guess! 😅🥰
I can’t wait to see you guys install a car seat! It makes it feel so real!
Wow, It's hard to believe it's been a whole year. Congrats to you both!! I look forward to seeing what you will be up to next.
p.s. I am currently visiting Ontario. I saw a Cruise Canada RV at Killarney last week, and for a good couple of minutes, I was excitedly thinking that it might be you guys' but then I realized you must have left Ontario by that point xD
Hahaha yeah those things are EVERYWHERE! 😂 Thanks for watching 🥰
I’m sad too, but looking forward to what’s next.
You had a remarkable trip. Very well done! Review your time at the Grand Canyon. Perhaps make a list of the top 3 (or 10) experiences for each of you. What have you learned? Am sure you've got the makings of a book!
scamps are awesome. and can be towed by like anything.
be safe kiddos!
Hey regarding the condensation, cars over time will slowly have their rubber seals, on the frame screw, degrade. Causing rain and water that runs under your car as you drive, to slowly get into your car from underneath. Nothing to worry about! Just wipe it up every now and then.
Can't wait to see the wrap-up video!
I believe the reason you had all the water/ condensation is likely because you started to sleep in the car before deciding to drive through the night. You had very humid and moist conditions and were breathing in the enclosed space, followed by the drive which can cause the battery to get quite warm or even hot. Wondering if originally there was some carpeting with absorbent underlayer on the floor?
That scamp is fairly light and could be towed by a car like the Kia Sorento it was with ( I have a 2012 Sorento -- it's rated for 3500 lbs. but you wouldn't want to tow that much despite having the power to do so). I've been studying roof-tents and they seem to be less than ideal in many cases. That said, putting an expandable hard shell tent (iKamper Skycamp or 23Zero Armadillo) on a small utility trailer would be really easy to tow and still offer a lot of versatility. Don't much care for towing myself, but if you don't mind it that would be easy and more affordable than most other ideas.
Cheers!...from North Vancouver
Welcome home you guys!
Thanks! It’s great to be back!
So excited to find out your next adventure into parenthood and seeing what kind of rig you come up with having a child in toe yay congrats 🎉
Yes! Haha sooooo many new things to learn/see!
wow love the wooden salt and pepper ... it's like a special edition one
😎 U2 are a lovely couple, you both have such wonderful attitudes, beautiful smiles, and you obviously love each other very much, I have enjoyed watching U2 on this journey, I wish you all the best. I know the baby will be a challenge, but he or she will bring you much joy and happiness. Good luck you too.👋✌️
Thanks Joe! ❤️
"...make a baby in here" reminds me of that old Concorde commercial. It still makes me laugh. (Okay, I also laughed when I heard about the Indian car commercial where the person tries to commit suicide by inhaling the "exhaust" from an electric vehicle. I am one sick puppy.)
Good luck with your new Prius!
The laugh I had when you almost dropped the camera 😂 I'm so sorry 😅🤣
Welcome home!
Thank you!
Hi from Sweden! Can't believe its already been a year. That car/caravan combo is very common here in northern Sweden. But with more swedish brands of caravans. When I drive to work now in the summertime, I'm seeing at least 5 of them daily.
It looked like you drove through parts of Sweden, it's interesting how similar it is.
We have a Casita which is like the Scamp. Small 16 footer which has everything, bathroom included. 😂😂 Congratulations on the journey and all! 💕
Hey, you had us at bathroom! 😂
What an adventure. Here’s to the future.
7:26 thanks for helping me get up! hahha
if you weren't planning already, make sure the car gets checked fully before the kid comes. extra saftey feeling
Does not feel like a year, crazy 🤯😍
A scamp trailer combo with the lifted Prius would work really well. Though you’d have to put a seat back in for baby!
Welcome back to BC.
💯 Albuquerque New Mexico love
Thanks for being here!
Oh I wish you were closer - LOVE to snag your homemade storage box!!! Would I have had to fight your folks for it? lol
I would love a Scamp! Perfect for one person! Just need to win the lottery first! 😂
I hope it’s not “over”. I hope your adventures continue with baby! Can’t wait! I hope next is a reveal video!! 😊 Sad the weekly Saturday video is over!😢
Now the backseat is ready for a carseat!
Lol yeah the lottery would be nice eh? 😅
How has it been a year! What is time haha, but it's been so amazing following along
Time flies! Phase One: [Prius] is over but here’s to Phase Two: [Leah’s Nest]!
All that fresh air must be incredible after dodging fires and poor air quality. Peace of mind for Leah & Mo too.
Happy Pride month! Cheers from Ontario
👋🏻🇨🇦🫶🏻
Thanks so much! We’re in the nesting phase and it’s more overwhelming than we thought it would be!
What a trip! I was wondering if you are planning on staying somewhere else if you still have tenants in your home on the island? Was wondering what the situation was with that since y'all ended the trip earlier than anticipated originally.
Leah, from one pregnant lady to another, please link that green floral maternity tank! It’s so cute!
I love the Scamps.
Can’t believe I’m a subscriber for so long 😂
Thanks for being here! Time really flies eh? haha
I really appreciate you all taking this journey and that you shared it with us. I’ve enjoyed it. Thanks!
It was so sad watching the prius deconvert 😢
🙏🏿
Jasper is gorgeous. I took the train there and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
The train would be amazing!
You could probably pull a Scamp like that with a Tesla Model Y or Cybertruck. In any case congrats on a successful road trip! And best of luck on whatever is next!
Scamps are the best. In fact, right now I am a few miles down the road from where they are made. Sadly, there is a two year waitlist for the new ones and the used ones sell really fast in the market so finding one is difficult.
Yeah we looked into them and wow… the hype is real! 👀😳
A pull behind has disadvantages as you can’t utilize it while on the road. Not being able to utilize it is a big deal. Something you can drive and live in at the same time with some bikes for easy getting to and from.
Love a scamp!
When you get some rest and settle in can you post templets for your Prius box. I done need my back seats ever.
Have you looked at any teardrop campers? You could pull it behind your off-road lifted Prius and explore the Canadian wilderness on some shorter trips.
We have! Sadly the Prius is rated for exactly zero pounds of towing capacity haha. We’re thinking whatever we get will have a bathroom 👍🏼
@@LeahandLevi i certainly understand wanting a real bathroom. I’m sure whatever you pick will be fun. Cheers.
