Love watching your videos Jack & it’s always a pleasure to see you & hear about your travels but could you turn the face tracking off? The camera bounces around too much! Just a suggestion 🙂

The road to freedom must be up hill! So true, but the view is so worth it. Don't give up! And don't film to please the algorithm do what you are passionate about and that vibe people feel and follow you for.

I personally started watching your vids because it was fun to watch you evolve and pursue what makes you happy and we were along for the adventure. I know you are a little extraverted, but it would be cool to see what you do in your daily life in public, interacting with people, talking with people etc. Maybe even show what you eat and how you cook. I do like your one on one talks, that's what I think is great, but show us what else you are doing when you're not within eye sight of Dean. Thanks for the vlogs, I always look forward to them. Happy New Year Jack 🎉

I thought that’s was your most professional looking video yet. And yes a mix sounds perfect. Thank you Jack. Jeff

In the end, the style of YT videos must be what you enjoy creating, it's the only way to do this sustainably. The types of video you create will attracted the audience that likes that type of video. On another topic that you mentioned in this video, and this might be too personal a question: have you considered that you might have ADHD?
@jackvandean
@jackvandean 2 күн бұрын
You know, Lynette, you spoke the wisest words on here in my comment section: in the end, if I don't like the way I create my own videos, I will not enjoy doing it and in the end will just give up. If that means I lose the odd subscriber - so be it - I might just gain a couple of new ones. Thanks for that ... As far as the adhd goes, I think I am to "passive" for that. But will have a chat with a GP once I get a chance ....

Your grasp of English is better than a lot of people's who are from an English speaking country. I agree with other comments about concerning yourself with music or fancy filming too much. It can get really same old. I've recently bought a van and I like tips but I mostly find the person or people doing the videos the most interesting. I'm not interested in expensive van or caravan setups. I agree with another commenter that you are a cutie patootie. Have a great 2025.

It's a great first year and you have a great channel but you're now facing the inevitable choice that You Tube demands of you. Do you let it dominate your life ? or do you live your life ? So many channels are utterly taken over by the "You tube " hunger" . Hunger for money , for celebrity of just an addiction to posting and getting a reaction. . All shallow ambitions and you could end up living the absolute opposite of what van life should be . Will be interesting to see which way you choose to go ?? Good Luck !!

Nice video as always, Jack. Thank you! I've stopped off in Sagunto a couple of times in recent years, on the way to & from Moraira where I spent a few winters, driving down from Bilbao after ferry crossings. Sagunto was eerily quiet each time in December and February, but that suits me. Will seek out the park up you mention, the next time I drive down... probably through France. All parkup recommendations (or warnings) welcome. Keep up the vlogging and hope you manage to repair your roof! Feliz Navidad, et cetera... 🎉 Robert (solo travelling Brit)
