  • I admire her for her courage and vision, the only problem is, because more people are turning to van life the government is starting to clamp down on vanlife and stealth camping, the government want everybody under control and paying exorbitant amounts of tax with no freedom at all, I wish success and happiness to all vanlifers
  • @tonyeff4447
    As a fellow van lifer approaching my first year in a van I admire her courage. And doing it with a little one. I wish her all the best with her new build

    It is devastating that a single mother must live in a vehicle to be able to afford taking care of her child. But she is doing what she has to do and has done it in such a beautiful and intentional way. They will be happy and comfortable and I hope that things get easier for all of us out there someday.
  • Cherish these moments because you have the opportunity to spend quality time with him. Big homes are over rated your van is beautiful but the time with your son is priceless

    When I was 21 My baby and I lived in a VW transport van with a pop top and bed in the back. Was so liberating to have that freedom as a young single mom financially. It was also lovely to know I could go wherever I needed when I needed. I worked in health food stores and had many friends with children . We camped at the base of the Tetons for one summer. I think it's so good for kiddos to see, experience live the world. And you don't need to be Uber wealthy to do it. 😊😊

    I’m a fellow single mum of two a 8 year old and a 5 year old and I think your a wonderful parent and inspiring during cost of living crisis that you can make future plans when most single parents can’t and are really struggling. I hope you find your tribe I think you are amazing and I would love one day to do some van life with my kids x

    Being a UK resident who is obsessed with Tiny houses and van life, I'm so chuffed to see a channel from an English couple, featuring people from England. Thanks for sharing.
  • I own my house and dream of selling it and be free. I just purchased a 2023 Mercedes sprinter … cannot wait xx such an inspirational woman ❤
  • The bedroom is amazing. There so much this little guy can learn on his adventures with mom.
  • I just wondered where do they shower n for reg bathroom use I definitely need a bathroom set up. I wished they explained this. Many of this vids don’t even touch the subject. I feel its very important. I love this lifestyle but need bare minimum like a working bathroom, kitchen n electricity w a/c. Wish her the best, beautiful baby n momma, stay safe❤❤❤❤❤

    Don't ever stop doing what you love. May you always have good fortune and sunny days in future.
  • What a inspiration this young lady is , She has done the London thing (work) and has come to the conclusions it’s out in the van or boat is where she feels happiest. With a positive attitude anything is possible ,I for one wish you all the very best were ever life takes you Bec .
  • @tinalange5471
    Nature will be this little boy's playground! God bless you from Wisconsin!
  • @jenpfluger8419
    What a unique layout in this van build. It is absolutely perfect for your living situation with still having your privacy. Raising your son on the road will give him exposure to the outdoor adventures that he would probably not have otherwise.
  • @Justabitnosey
    Her little boy seems to be happy and healthy so she must be doing something right. There are so many people who moan about living in over crowded homes expecting to be housed by the local authority. But sit on their bums popping children out they can't afford. Not actually doing anything to change their circumstances. This mum will be living a better life than many who are just working to live.
  • @kristinap6300
    We are a couple and we live in a van 6 mo per year and our boat 6 mo a year- it’s pretty glorious
  • @dlight2669
    I remember when my first born was that age and I read to him daily and he is very very intelligent Love's books and is self-taught in several things he taught himself through books. It's nice you can spend a lot of time with your son while he's at at that age.

    What she has is luxury. I was a single mum with a 2 year old and traveled the East Coast of Australia in just a tent for 2 whole years until my daughter was 4 and a half and close to school age. We mainly visited national parks, so bush and beach camping, 70 in total in 2 years and I constantly had to put the tent up and down, blow up the mattress etc and same with the bedding and cooking stuff. Constantly packing and unpacking everything. That was 20 years ago. I would have loved to have had a van in those days.
