Your Van is soooo pretty!

You are wise. Best of luck with all your endeavors, kind person

I want a workbench too. It can't be that hard to build, but like you, I don't have the tools.

So wonderful to see so many of us small channels here in the comments in the same boat. Clearly we all resonated with the message of the KZbin grind. We’re all in this together ❤ I see the work you’re all putting in and I applaud you all! Let’s keep at it. 💪🏼

I love the styling of your videos 😊

Dear Lucinda, Yet another exciting and inspiring video! I truly believe the tide has turned-you are on the verge of making your dream a reality, and nothing can stand in your way of achieving it! Your video holds great value as it draws the viewer into a world of inspiration and hope. It resonated with me deeply and has been both enjoyable and helpful. Stay creative and true to your goals. You have many talents: endurance, dedication, enthusiasm, and a unique gift for connecting with people. The more you open yourself up, the more people you will reach-but this openness must be rooted in creativity, just as you are doing. Only then do our actions become solidified, transformed into works of art-a true personal legacy! Thank you so much! Greetings from North Europe 😀

Another banger 🎥🔥

I love your videos. Keep going💙

Oooh, this is so exciting. I’m looking forward to see all the adventures and misadventures you encounter. I have no attention span or mental capacity for Sketchup. I went the traditional path with pencil and grid paper when we built our first camper van. Your meal outing looks delicious. Love your content, Creative Director.

I just love that you are stepping out into a new chapter with courage and imagination!!!!😊

I was cheering and so happy…. Laughed so hard at using the seasoning for the packet of crisps ha ha… loud, proud and in plain sight!!!!! Ahhhh xx

Wow, I'm not the only one feeling this way. I swear, lately that I have been feeling like I am in a Alice in wonderland loop. It's the same ol same ol, day in and day out routine. For Years, I have been watching and admiring people living their life in a van, car, bus, truck or whatever. I feel that I can and need to do it. I have been saving my coins with the intention of buying a shuttle bus and converting it to a tiny house on wheels. Thank you and the also the people in the comments for reminding and inspiring me to move forward. 🫶🏾🤗🫶🏾

"Becoming the creative director for my own life." I love that and will definitely keep that in mind in 2025! It's interesting how we've bought into this myth that we have to figure things out on our own when so many of the successful people I talk to have mentors, accountability partners, coaches, etc. I don't think we were meant to do anything in life completely on our own.

Yay for camping!! Did you get a chance to sleep overnight yet or just go for a day trip? I don’t think we’ve been since September and it’s really getting to me. We usually go once a month and we planned this weekend but temps got below freezing so we had to skip. 😢 It’s ok though because I got to work on a bunch of cool projects!

Thank you for sharing this message, no need to hide until you're "perfect". love love love !!!!

I really enjoy the authenticity of your videos!! Love how you are learning to camp, what you will need, how you will build it, etc. This is really the fun part. I also loved your breakfast burrito….. onions, peppers, eggs, spinach, rice, quacamole?? Yes, please this will be on my camping breakfast meal list this summer!! Thanks for the great idea. Enjoy the process 😊❤️🙏🏼

I was very happy 🤩to see your Praktica. Firstly, I am an amateur photographer myself and secondly, it was made in Dresden, Germany - I am German and have a personal connection to the city and fond memories of Praktica cameras.

Love the temporary set up in your van. Cozy. The breakfast burrito looked scrumptious! Keep going!

Asking for help is good, 2025 is going to be a great year for growth..... yep yep !!

Didn’t realise Wallace and Gromit made it to America! Looks like you’re off to a great start in your camper - jealous the weather is warm enough for it. It’s freezing here!

I mean I am only 3 minutes into this and I’m loving your advice! So good! Thank you!!!

How many 120v electrical outlets are in the van? What is the maximum wattage those outlets can handle? What battery is powering those outlets and what recharges it? Does the van have to be on to use the outlets, like could you plug in a fridge and leave it running indefinitely, or as soon as you turn it off will it disable the outlets.

This is awesome, excited for you and husband and Elfie! Good journeys

Love the van and seeing the view you got on this vlog, you deserve it and the van x

My furry friend isnt verry friendly!

Qwlcome back, missed ya, yes life is messy, storytelling or more like authenticity and realness

Hoping you have a fantastic journey! I'm excited to follow your adventure. Enjoy peace ✌️

You need ventilation. Stick on some rain guards above the windows, and make a screen that you can set in the crack of the window. Also a battery operated fan will help with the air inside.

adore your van series. Looking forward to the modular built, it will be amazing!

I don't live in my van, but I have a high top van that's 10 yrs old this year. It's had 4 different "test" layouts, and I've got the major components of the newest layout in place now. I spent 6 weeks this fall adventuring & visiting family, and I had a blast. Spent $0 on hotel rooms in nearly 4000 miles. The VW ID Buzz is the first vehicle that might pry me out of my current van, but not until the wheels fall off of this buggy! Enjoy your build & thank you for sharing it with us!

Be sure to check if that 12V outlet is powered when the van is off. There's no camping mode or dog mode as Tesla has. There are some European van users who put concrete blocks in the driver seat to mimic a person in the seat & force the van on. Security locks are disabled, if I recall correctly. Best wishes & great video!

One is never too old to dream. I am 63 and have many dreams! Great video!

Do you girl!!!!🎉

Pursuing dreams as a creative frees your soul. Dollars and cents are not guaranteed but not giving those creative dreams a chance to see the light of day can lead to regrets for sure. I hope that you have many major wins on your creative path.

How come I see Dutch writing on a laptop and wall 🤔 very nice van, by the way .😀

Thank you for making this video. I really admire your videos, and it was nice of you to share some tips that go into it... I always wonder how u come up with the cinematography ideas too. ✌🏼

Hey Lucinda, ik reageer even in het Nederlands want ik zie af en toe wat Nederlands in je video’s. KZbin is jou echt niet goed gezind helaas. Als ik de views op je video’s bekijk en je kwaliteit zie dan vind ik dat er iets misloopt voor jou. Mijn laatste video vond ik zelf maar zwak maar ik had em toch online gezet en die video kreeg 16k views op 3 dagen. Leuk maar in mijn ogen onverdiend als ik jouw video kwaliteit zie en de views die jij krijgt. Super dat je zo’n werk in je video’s steekt, ik hoop dat youtube je snel geeft wat je verdient!

Great video. Well done. You even hit all the things i knew how to create good quality videos. Really good content. Hopefully we could see more of this great stuff in future. I subscribed.

I always enjoy your videos. You always have some very helpful tips.

That is the Coolest VW Van you got there. Have fun with it. 😎😎😎🔥🔥🔥

Dear Lucinda, this video is absolutely stunning! The visuals are so aesthetically pleasing, and the insights on storytelling and narrative techniques are incredibly helpful. Things have changed radically and positively since the beginning of the year. I feel like this marks a real turning point in your work-it's definitely one of your best yet! It also brings a lot of value regarding filmic storytelling. Bravo, and keep creating! Greetings from the foggy Hamburg 😀

This has inspired me to try and make a better intro for the video I've just filmed! Thank you :)

Hello you’re very good at making videos. Thank you for sharing. 🐓NonnaGrace 🐓

Thanks for sharing these tips 🙂

The lighting in the last scene with you typing is beautiful … the orange glow on the left and the cool blue on the right. This is really helpful Lucinda. I’m working on a video (yet another one that seems to take me 500 years to do) and I was struggling to put the footage into a story. My brain is ticking now. Xx

There is absolutely NO WAY your channel isn't going to blow up.

And you are an excellent storyteller. Thanks for the tips. What you cover in this video is one of the keys to growth.

Great video. I had never heard of this vehicle before and I must admit that it looks fantastic. It will be quite interesting to see how you put your van together.
