Noobs Try Living in a Van for a Week | What We Learned from Full-time Vanlife

After finally finishing our camper van conversion we decided to go on a week long trip to test things. This was our first time living in the van full time or going on a long road trip so it was a totally new experience for us. We wanted to share some things we learned such as places to sleep/park overnight, where to fill up water, and more. As well as challenges we faced and what we plan to change in our van to make it even better for our next adventure!

Who we are:
We are Jon and Ray, a couple from Seattle, WA. We are full-time van lifers, traveling the US with our dog JJ, in our converted Promaster “Road Dreamer” or “Roadie” for short. We make videos about traveling to new places, what it’s like living in a van, and tips/tricks to help fellow van lifers. We hope to inspire others to try new things, alternative ways of living, and to explore the beautiful world we live in. We post new videos every Sunday. We appreciate your support on our journey!
