Surviving a Winter in a Van - Van Camping To The End Of The World

The biggest video project of my life is here!
After surviving a winter in a van, I hit the road to the extreme south and eventually made to the end of the world!
This video consists in a journey of 8 months, wich I've made about 10000 miles, recorded around 3000 pieces of videos/photos and edited this video during a month to bring this project as it is.
The story begins in northern patagonia during winter in southern hemisphere (july) I was travelling in this region with a almost 40 year old van withouth insulation, neither a proper heater or insulation for a situation like this. Eventually the winter was over, the flowers started to bloom and the birds to sing, then it was time to took off my long pants and drive against the elements and more than anything the exreme strong winds of patagonia. More than once, I've had to drive in second gear at 20 miles per hour due to the extreme headwind, even on flat paved roads!
Patience was required several times to face situations like this with a car like this.
After snowstorms, blocked roads, brake problems, engine problems, skiing, seeing glaciers, penguins and a lot of adventures of any sorts, I've made to the end of the world, and now I share this story with you! Thanks for coming by!

I'd find spending time in a camper, in winter, more exciting than summer.

[@jamesrogalski2085]

I am totally shocked at your beetle van's ability! I had assumed the Beetle van was way under powered for mountains and extended driving. Absolutely amazing! 😊😊

Hola Rodrigo, buenas noches.
Que lindos videos que te filmaste. Me gustaron mucho. Me llamo la atención de que expresaras las distancias en "millas" y no en kilómetros. Muchas gracias por registrarlo todo y compartirlo con todos nosotros. Muy buen trabajo. Segui adelante. Gracias Rodrigo.

Hola Rodrigo. Estuve viendo como camperisaste la Kombi y luego me enganche con este video. Que locura la de pasaar el invierno en la Kombi sin Aislante termico, te mandaste una terrible proeza. Te felicito por el trabajo, y contagias para salir a recorrer un vehiculo cualquiera. Felicitaciones y Bendiciones.

Gracias amigo!!

[@regiondeleste2011]

[@renedemers3205]

I had a 68 VW bus in the 80s when I was a ski bum. It had a very powerful gas heater that fed right from the gas tank. With all the glass and metal in the bus you absolutely freeze in the winter. The van just couldn’t hold heat so you had to sleep right next to the heater on full power to not be cold. I have winter camped in other vans comfortably since with less heat source than that VW. It was a great summer camper, But no one way could my 68 with a 74 motor handle the cold. Thanks .

[@Firefoxtj]

Vi el video completo 👀. Que magníficos paisajes, sabes mecánica, eres un buen cocinero, súper bien 👍

[@lucbourgeade5069]

Il est trop beau ce petit bus, paysages magnifiques, calme et sérénité, c'est pas mal de temps en temps...et la neige 😃, superbe vidéo je vous salue vous deux 🙏👋🤜🤛.

[@lccsd2392]

thanks for making this wonderful film. I really enjoyed the lack of talking and commentary. Will watch to see how you fix up the Kombi. Some insulation would be nice.

[@RodrigoKaspary]

Awesome, thank you! I'm just doing the camperization job of the Kombi, take a look at the new videos. Cheers!

[@matheusangelo7001]

Cara, ano passado fomos eu minha irmã e meu cunhado para Bariloche de carro saindo de Curitiba, foram mais de 3 mil quilômetros de viagem, 4 dias para cobrir o percurso de ida e mais 5 dias para voltar, isso viajando o dia todo. Eu digo que foi a melhor experiência da minha vida, é o tipo de coisa que eu sei que vou estar com meus 60-70 anos e ainda vou ter tudo oque vivi nessa viagem na mente, é uma experiência realmente única. Vídeo muito top cara, muito bacana mesmo.

[@bandplop6162]

Das Problem von Busfahrzeugen ist, dass sie mangelhaft isoliert sind und dass die Einfachverglasung ein Megaproblem darstellt. Die Holme müssten mit unter luftabschlussfähiger-aushörtbaren Bauschaum versiegelt werden, die Zwischenräume mit Glas- oder Steinwolle, die Aluminiumkaschierung bring deshalb nichts, weil sie nicht durchgängig über die Holme geht, effizienter wäre es vielleicht, Aluminiumfolie in die Rückseite der Sperrholzverkleidung zu kleben, Kleister und wasserfester Ponalleim, muss vorsichtig abgerakelt werden und braucht zwei Wochen zur Trocknung.
