Hola 🤗 Subtítulos en español ya están disponibles! Gracias Oscar por tu ayuda!
Max & Lee good job South America is beautiful 🙈🔴🙈🔴🙈🔴
How do you avoid contacting malaria or Dengue fever?
Why can i just do this? Life would be so much more enjoyable, what a beautiful life haha
kung Few asking the right questions
Nice
You look so happy here lee. Your smiles were not fake. So sad youre not here anymore 💔
Seriously bizarre. 🤯
@Xin Dee Lee is gone.
@@Sololaverdad429 😭😭 how she died?!??
@@bouchra3862 jumped in front of a train
I am devastated by the news about Lee, I wish speedy resignation to all who appreciated her and send a hug to Max and Occi.
We will all miss her.
Lee was brighter than any star. Miss her every day! Rip ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great video! Lee was such a shining light in this world, it's great to see her laughing smiling etc, but SO HEARTBREAKING that she so TRAGICALLY lost her battle with depression and Anxiety and took her own life! SHE was an AMAZINGLY beautiful person in EVERY way! An amazing soul and a FANTASTIC advocate for raising "awareness" to "end the stigma so wrongly associated with mental health issues and illness!" She was ONE OF A KIND! AND SHE WAS TRULY KIND!
God Bless you Lee ❤️, God bless Your family and Max, Occy, ALL her Close friends, and everyone she touched both in person and who followed her online, everyone of which, lives she brought LIGHT to and CHANGED for the BETTER! x
I pray ALL that were close to and loved Lee, find the strength to get through this tragedy! I just hope they will be able to take some small comfort, that she is at peace now, but ALSO in the legacy that she left US ALL, in the MANY videos she made and which are a LASTING testament to this wonderful, kind, warm, bright human being! Who lived more "adventures" in her short life than most could ever live in 3 lifetimes! ... It doesn't make it any less devastating but we can all look back and remember her in happier times! I for one am watching every video she made with Max and Occy and Life with Lee, in memory of her.
God bless you Lee, R.I.P. now. 😥💔🙏❤️
My goodness ... Lee was absolutely stunning. These videos have been recommended to me non-stop in recent days. Nice to reminisce about happier times for her and you, Max. Thinking of you and Occy during this devastating time xx
She really was like a supermodel. And such a beautiful smile. Just goes to show the internal suffering really does exist regardless of how beautiful or blessed anyone appears in their life.
Yeah exactly ☺️
RIP Lee, Those of us living the Van Life will always remember you. I'm sorry you thought there was no way out of your depression. I believe that there is. Jesus has kept me alive thru my darkest hours and I have had some deep dark ones. See you in Heaven Lee.
💔😪
Wait what!!?? she's dead??!!
no freakin way!
@@keaganvaldez24 Yes she died a couple of weeks ago
@@jobo8281 why she died, what happened
u guys luk so amazing together ..... i pray for her.. RIP Lee ... keep shining wherever u r now... ❤️
Hello Lee. I know you can hear me. Probably even see me. I've never heard of you and your Van life adventures with you and Max and the dear pup until today's news of your going. My heart is completely broken. But surely you had some reason. You are so full of grace and wisdom. And clearly full of great unsolvable pain. My best friend is mixed Ecuadorian so nice to see her country. Thank you both for that; thank you for showing us how important is to know and learn how to live on a vegetarian diet. Thank you for being modern day Renaissance people. My head is spinning and I can hardly breathe between you and George Floyd. It's all pretty heavy as you know. Love you, sis. ❤🙏🏽🙌🏾💥👏🏿💫🗣🥝🥑🥥🍎🍉🍊🍋🫑🌶🥒🥬🥦🧄🧅🍄
Mompiche, Esmeraldas ❤️ is my hometown ! You guys are so cool for appreciating the little things like this little town! Take care and enjoy our little green space in this awesome earth we live in.
Peace🙌🏼
Such a beautiful place to call home Sari! Do you still love there?? Thank you we will! ❤️
I am interested in Puerto Cayo area. In Mexico now on my way down.
Hi😍
aljon alvero hello
I'm 60 years young. The music was "groovy". Perfect sounds for the video. Loved the beach where each of you got some well deserved "head space". The lady who stared at you in the local grocery store was probably thinking how beautiful and tall you are Lee. Those toilets aren't bad at all. The "comfort rooms" in many countries give you a bucket of water and a scoop with a shared bar of soap to wash yer backside after dooing.
Occy looked so relaxed on Max's surf board. Loved every minute. Until next Sunday,,,, " Hang Ten" ! 🥑🍆🍒🍓🍅🍍🍌🍋🍊🍉🍈🍇🥒🥦🌶🥥🍑🍐🥕🌽🥗🥨
Definitely groovy 😉
Stoked you enjoyed it and we will see you next week! ❤️❤️❤️
I followed your entire journey, you put smiles on my face ,reminded me of my youth,you lived a short life and did more than most could only dream of,miss you,see you down the road
I just discovered today that Lee had her own CZcams channel. I had heard about her and her death on other channels, but I didn’t realize that she was a CZcamsr. She really was an amazing and beautiful person.
Love to see you kids doing the kind of things I did when young. Your video postings are something of a joy to me. I'm older now and sick so cannot even plan for such adventures. Keep posting videos please because for some of us it is all we get to " remember" youth. Thank you.
Jack Cooper
Very poignant statement and should be taken to heart for all today's youth; do it when you're young!
The older generation can still do it i promise bit.ly/2tcrEz5. Enjoy! 😎
Jack Cooper so glad to hear this Jack! We both remember vividly running in to an elderly gentleman in Baja Mexico & him telling us that ‘there will always be time to make money, but this kind of thing is best achieved whilst you are you and fit’. It really stuck with us and re-enforced that we were on the right path. We are so happy to have you along on this journey with us and would love to hear more about your adventures one day!
Ken Munoz 🙌🏼👏🏼
Jack Cooper no we’re working hard to make up the mistakes the baby boomers made. This is an exception, granted not one that happens often. Rather stay at home and work my balls off and provide for a family, and a house. Stress and die like a real American.
Okay, who loved the music in this video! 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♂️
Both songs are by Felipe Baldomir. We met him at the van life gathering we attended in Australia and were blown away by not just his talent but also how genuine and down to earth he was. Please give him some love (and tell him we said hi 😉). His instagram is @felipebaldomir and here is a link to his CZcams channel czcams.com/channels/06tlgTzbYkNrxnbTb4B9uw.html
Thank you for spending your Sunday with us!
Love, Max, Lee and of course, Occy ❤️

As an ecuadorian this is so weird and great! People usually don't care about our country, so i feel happy that this channel is sharing this experience, I hope the best for you two!
czcams.com/video/InXjTueMK1o/video.html
Your videos are so genuine, authentic and beautiful. You both carry such a humble vibe. Never change!
Sian Owen aww thank you 🙏🏼 we won’t!
Watching you two is like walking in on old friends and enjoying a beer over a conversation. Nice video.
Tony Notstated absolutely love that ❤️❤️
My residents and I just watched your video from the comfort of our senior living community in Dallas, TX. Thank you so much for sharing your day with us.
That's what i call happy stress free real life. Enjoying every moment in BLISS. best wishes u folks.
I really loved this video style! !! I love any video you post actually and Sundays seem so long away from each other. This seems like the best kind of day with some fun, exercise, family time and always some needed alone time.
So glad you liked it!!
Yet again, another awesome video. Loved the edits. Occy as lush and chilled out as ever. You guys are an inspiration. Look forward to next Sunday.
Aww thank you Kim ❤️❤️❤️ See you next week 🤗
@@MaxLeeandOccy Hopefully one day you'll visit the UK and more specifically South Wales (where I live). The beaches here are spectacular and amazing surf. See ya next week
@Love you so much South Wales, UK
Absolutely love this! The kind of life I want... and in my country! Love and light!
Max, Lee , Occy and Mum ---- your making van life a bucket list for me
Max and Lee, I am from Alabama where the mosquitoes will fly away with your pets if you let them. I have found over the years that anytime I open a drain pan and let out old transmission fluid to do a transmission service the odor of the burnt transmission fluid drives away any and all mosquitoes and just about any other insects that bite. These days, I actually keep a gallon of burnt transmission fluid on hand and when I want to do any social activity such as a bbq I will open that gallon of burnt smelly fluid and dribble some drops of it around the perimeter of my area and the bugs will not touch us. They hate it. I hope this helps you some sunny day. Good luck. Dan
Wow such a random way to find out but seems super effective, thanks for the tip Dan!
Simple vibes. Simple living. Simply the best.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Although was hoping for a bit more dry humour from you Zdravko!
Aloha. Terrific video; thanks for sharing! Small things - big things; fun to follow you guys.
Just found this channel. Lee was such a beautiful spirit. So sad that she's not with us anymore. 😢
That intro was so lovely! When you 2 were smootching in the waves, I shed a little tear. Love is grand!!! Thank you for always sharing such stellar content, guys!! It is my lifelong dream to have a rig that I live and travel in one day, so living vicariously through you guys, warms my heart so much!
Love is grand indeed! ❤️❤️❤️ Our pleasure, & pursue those dreams!
Un gusto de verle en mi terra 🐬🌴🌳🌷🍍ECUADOR 🙏🙌
This was the video that introduced me to vanlife and i instantly fell in love thank you max and lee for helping me to realize my dream
a mi también... que triste que ya no estén juntos 🥺
czcams.com/video/InXjTueMK1o/video.html
Max and lee i love your life. The way you living your life. It's so existing. God bless you both.
They’re not though. Lee cheated on max and he kicked her to the curb a few months back. She’s really devastated and has chosen to join Eamon & Bec as their “third” - polyamory is not dead afterall
I enjoyed this immensely. Max back on the board! Very primitive village. The three of you bring the beauty to your surroundings. This vid was perfect. I felt like I was there with you. This is the life. I can't thank you enough. You both looked relaxed here. That was the best part.
Aww stoked to hear it Irene! Thank you smooch for the kind words ❤️❤️❤️
Just started getting into watching VanLife videos and ran across your channel. Great stuff. Really like your chemistry, the adventures, and you two being genuine and good people. Thanks for sharing your experiences and allowing me to live the VanLife vicariously through you!
Be safe and have fun!
James Dunn thank you for such kind words James! ❤️
ECUADOR!!! 🇪🇨 Served an LDS mission down there (1998-2000). Amazing place! The people are so awesome, the food is amazing, and the country is (although not rich) rich in beauty. Be safe!

All Blessings to all.Thanks, for sharing this continued exciting travel adventure. Amen! 🙏❤🙏🤗
Wow! More power to u guys! Sending love from Philippines! 👏👏👏🙌
in confinement, depressed, looking for some happiness in your videos, thanks for that. Greetings from Chile, South America
I'm so happy for the dog. All dog owners should strive to be like these wonderful people.
czcams.com/video/InXjTueMK1o/video.html
The thing some people seem to miss in these kind of videos is how happy these people appear, they seem to love and embrace the fact that they are not forced to societal timetables and its restrictions.
I had an accident 8 years ago which totally changed my life, i used to be focused like the vast majority on grinding away my life to earn money to sign up for a mortgage to tie me in for 25-50 years of paying it off, and rinse and repeat, i am now mostly housebound due to spine and muscle damage (amongst other things) but your lifestyle and adventures are something i would love to do, please keep these kind of videos coming, as a few others have posted previously, i get to go outdoors and live these adventures with lovely people like you through you.
It is a wonderful feeling and a gift to be able to put a smile on someones face across the other side of the world, and to make my world feel a little bit bigger and less limited than it is through you guys.
Much love, keep smiling and living a wonderful life of your choosing!
I always LOVE the music choices in your videos! I need a Max & Lee playlist! This editing was top notch. I so look forward to your videos every Sunday and never want them to end 🤗 give Occy a big kiss from me! He honestly gets cuter every time I see him. Love & safe travels ❤️❤️
We have put the playlist on our to do list Felicia! Thanks for making us part of your Sunday routine ❤️
