Someone once said to me: “Sometimes, your art is just the way you live your life.” Chad, you’re an artist. ❤️
I just made this meal now I can’t stop shitting!!!!
@@dillanghee4683 😂😂🤣🤣
No apology necessary,,, The heater is all part of the experience ...... And what a GREAT LOCATION,,, Snow, Wind, and the whole Van so well equipped ..... I wish I was 40 yrs younger to do it all over again,,, enjoy every second to the MAX .... I had a van in the 70's, 80's, 90's and I really miss it,,, so many things I think of now I should have done then,, so whatever crazy adventure idea you have, DO IT,, you'll be glad you did !!!!!
Study,work,make money and all so Obama/Biden inflation can take it away. Do stuff when you are young. It's a shame most things require money.
@@mystuff1405facts :)
@@mystuff1405so Obama/Biden took it all away did they? You didn’t have very much apparently 😂🤷🏽♀️! Trump took your soul so…that’s who you should be mad at!
Pro tip: when scraping food from your cutting board, turn the knife over to scrape with the blunt edge. This will save your blade!
Lightly brushing a knife over a block won't dull it as quick as most think.. you will have to sharpen it faster, but the difference is so minimal.
Little adventure or big adventure Chad never fails to deliver. Great food great weather great van great film. Much love and respect to you ❤👍
A lot of years ago now I drove a sprinter van, it was done out to accommodate our four children and two dogs. I loved it, my husband worked on the oil rigs so a lot of the time it was just me taking the kids all over.,the only thing I found was in the bad weather it didn’t hold as well on the roads as I would have liked.. yours is brilliant. I miss those years, however we have 8 grandkids now and we bought a holiday home instead, my health isn’t what it used to be but I still help out as much as I can. Love watching these videos., from England
I'm glad I found you again❤
I lost my husband a little over a year ago and disconnected from social media!
The van looks amazing 😍, I love it!
You look terrifying
Was just watch the Norwegian Xplorer, who was watching you whilst he was out in the mountains in Norway! He recommended you on his channel.
You never disappoint and just the start of this video makes it a great one. Thanks for doing what you do.
The sound of the heater is actually relaxing 😊
This whole video was zen👍
The sound makes me feel anxious lol. Hate buzzing noises and the sound of wind from a fan.
😂
of all the van lifer's van, I like your van the most.
and i like your enthusiasm for the vehicle and the filming and the places you visit.
Your attention to details in 3 of those is unique.
I thoroughly enjoy seeing how far mechanically your Sprinter can be pushed beyond the original design of this van. Truly inspirational.
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching!
I just made this meal now I can’t stop shitting!!!!

Chad - I enjoy all your videos but I must say your winter videos are epic! Stay toasty 🙂❤🙏
Bless you Chad. Your wonderful adventures are such a blessing for us folks who will never be lucky enough to make the journey. Keep on keeping on. Thank you from the U.K. x
I love the sound of the diesel heater. It transports me into a cozy warm van. I found myself with my eyes closed falling asleep with that hum going. No better sound than the sound of a small heater.
Did that once in Wyoming, woke up to about 10 lodgepole pines fallen around our camper. Stay alert Chad. Great video and spot out in the open
Chad, its Time to do some eastern adventures, up thru , Indiana, Ohio, PA, NY and others states here out east and road trip up to Maine , so many beautiful areas out this way, love your videos, keep em coming!
Not really, the east coast is lame compared to the west 😎
@@pacificnorthwest9416 I do love the west coast no doubt! But many areas out east and north, not just the east coast , offer something different and certainly beautiful in there own right :-)
@@lndscpe I agree. The northeast is absolutely beautiful and has a great deal to offer.
I work from home and I watch your video whenever there is a new one because mentally soothing traveling the outdoor especially during winter in the woods. I hope one day I can buy my own sprinter van that is built for such adventures. Keep rocking and trekking, Thanks for taking us to your adventure.
Thanks for the comment and the very kind words. Keep your eyes on those goals of yours
you know what we like!....diesel heater just adds to the authentic ambiance 😁
Another great and inspiring episode. Thanks, Chad!
Chad, I love this channel!! Keep living it up! ✌️
Winter atmosphere is something else, especially when it's combined with cosiness of inside the van. Great video once again Chad!
You made of steel! Not only takes the trash out in a blizzard but films it from multiple angles in that weather. That's Beastmode! Amazing as alaways.
You are so brave and quite amazing too! Thank you for bringing us along!
I couldn’t agree more LTVL, the energy and power that comes with these winter fronts in Washington state is humbling! Thank you for the videos as always
I really do enjoy riding shotgun on your adventures, thank you for taking us along😊
Its been a blast with ya the last how many years, since the Combi and now, thank you for sharing and enjoyed every second. To many more.
Unless you've been there, it's really cool when there's bad weather and your inside your rig, what ever that might be?, Your cozy and warm like your in your little bubble . . .
Really enjoy your vanlife videos over all the others.....you live it, most others pose it.
Thanks again Chad for the amazing content!
Chad your amazing brother. Thank you for all your hard work producing amazing content.
I definitely enjoyed and learned alot from you.
Cheers friend!!
Cheers to Chad and thank you for what you do! I hope to be on the west coast with my truck camper! Taker sleezy!
Now thats a blizzard!!!!
Nice!
LTVL and Norwegian Explorer back to back this evening - what a treat. Outstanding videos every time.
It's great to watch both of those inside a nice warm house!

From Vancouver Canada

Outstanding posting. Many thanks
Love ur channel so brave to take us all along with u . I'm so envious Chad . Just love ❤️ it all hi from Scotland x
Cheers to you as well❤ stay safe in travels
Thanks for the video Chad. If you get stuck in the Oregon Cascades snow, Casey LaDelle can rescue . He has a track vehicle
Cheers to you and your wonderful channel which brings me so much joy
Chad, I've been a sub for many years. We have talked a few times at Expo, and I told you this in person, but I'll write it down here too. The thing that hooked me early on about your videos is your attention to the soundscape.. You have such artistry in your use of ambient sound, music, and silence. Combined with your videography, your channel is a joy to follow.. If I were a blind man, I would still watch your videos. Your comment about the heater sound, prompted my comment. I just had to chuckle.....David
So true David,he's the Master!
Chad, so many thanks to you for this great cinematography (as always) !👍💪🏻 Cheers from Germany 🍻
Such an amazing video!! Thank-you!
I love these videos. I've told many people about your channel and how wonderful and unique it is. Be safe and keep on enjoying life. We never know when we'll be called home.
Awesome life you are having my friend
Awesome pics, and dinner looks great!
My prep cook cuts onions the same way you do.. And here's a tip use the back of ur knife to scrap food off cutting board.. fast way to dull ur knives
I for one love the sound of the diesel heater. It's the sound of dominating winter. To me it's almost as pleasant as the sound of a camp fire. P.S. I'm going to try that recipe!
I love this real 4x4 Van.
Thank you for sharing, you amaze me every video!
Love it to get cozy in the van
Wow, I love how you put this video together especially the epic blizzard scenes. Well done.
This video makes me happy
These videos get automatic like as soon as it starts playing. The content is better than anything I get anywhere else. I came here for the vanagen but the sprinter is finally starting to grow on me. I try hard to watch em as soon as I see they’re available. Keep it up. You are a huge inspiration for me and my winter adventures here in west Michigan.
Another Great Video.
I love all your winter videos!
Outstanding video. Thanks again Don
Wow, that weather is crazy. I enjoyed watching. Great as always Chad
Loving your work. Enjoy watching. Cheers
Amazing work!
You are living my dream. Maybe one day, I can do what you do, but my way. Lol You do a phenomenal job. All your work and travels has inspired me. Thank you for all that you do.
I really didn’t notice it until you brought it up. Now my brain is infected! Thanks and keep up the amazing work!
Love the winter camping videos
Hey Chad. I've been watching your videos from before the pandemic. Your new van is magnificent. I envy you my friend. I really would like to live a van life myself, but I'm recovering from cardiac arrest. I have an internal Defibrillator that has to be monitored constantly. Just watching you in the van surrounded by a blizzard is remarkable. One question, have you ever been in a situation where some crazy person in the woods was stalking you? That's the one thing that worries me if I was on the road.
Thx sharing I enjoy the cooking parts the best
Absolutely awesome man! I’d love to do that!
Love watching your video sir ...Thanks for the experience love from Fiji lsland
Love it!
