Solo Woman's Remarkable Tiny Transit Connect Van | No-Build Van Life

[@felixf4378]

I love this channel. It makes me think that I'm not crazy for wanting to live in a van. Everyone near me thinks I'm out of my mind.

[@blue_willow48]

your not crazy. It’s my goal. People look at me like I’m crazy when I say that’s what I want. Luckily my mom is supportive. She said if she was younger she would do it.

[@SuperTruthful]

be concerned with what you want not what others think. sometimes it's best to keep your plans and ideas to yourself.

[@simplyrise5217]

Do what suit you 👌

[@judylloyd7901]

@@blue_willow48 You're* not crazy 😊👍

[@paulmood308]

Your not crazy, you’re adventurous.

Her rig may seem small but she has it all. Great job.

[@jacquelinesmith2966]

I love seeing small vans that are built out without carpentry skills. Really inspiring.

[@MommaOsoIrish67]

She says she had to do what she could like she's embarrassed.. This lady did a phenomenal job at making sure she addressed all her needs! I am completely impressed!

[@Sten775]

Live in Nederland, have a house, children, pets, not plans in doing van live but here I am watching these ppl and enjoying it😂

[@Bronte-on6tm]

I hear you. I have a condo that I enjoy, and I am not fond of traveling, but I enjoy watching these videos.

[@lalarebelse5985]

Het verschil met Nederland en Amerika is dat we hier een inschrijving moeten hebben, dus eigenlijk een huis dus voor ons is het lastiger dan in amerika.

[@thanatoskatakrima5864]

Just goes to show how little we actually need to survive and be happy 😊 Not to mention that our ancestors survived with way less! We have become so spoiled we have failed to enjoy life with less because we have bought into the mindset that more is better!

[@AlvinUselton]

So cool just to see people who seem happy 😊

[@pdq5465]

I totally agree with you. She seems happy & proud.

[@donteatthefoxgloves377]

Nothing more joyful than getting to see people living their authentic lives. What a blessing! 🌿🌿🌿

[@markymark5104]

I can completely relate to this lady. I traveled with work my whole life. You do grow apart from friends and some family. You do find yourself alone later years. There’s freedom in loneliness.

[@Bronte-on6tm]

I love the ladybug story! Awesome!

[@mikestone9129]

What a smile and attitude. You can tell just by looking at her that she's loving life.

[@MicabooMedia]

What an absolutely wonderful set up. I am very comfortable in small spaces and a conversion like this inspires me on many levels. This lady's joy and happiness is infectious. Miss Lady Bugout, thanks for sharing and keep doing you!!

[@michellelester243]

Lady bugout has made herself a fantastic van home, lots of great ideas for making the most of your space. Thanks again Bob!

[@martymuniz4426]

Beautiful story...♥️♥️

I am all about looking for the synchronicities the universe presents. The story about the lady bug warms my heart. ❤

9 ppl need her attitude!! She's so positive and uplifting and creative! I'm in a Transit but 30mpg could adjust my world! 😆 Thanks Bob for another great video.

The inside of that van is amazing! This lady could have a new career converting vans ? she's awesome ! Watching from 🇮🇪

[@Tom-Travels]

Great videography Bob. The crisp, clear, video with close-ups is outstanding. I'm very proud of you. Also Dee is a trooper. A tenacious life warrior. I tried Nomad for two weeks in 2005, after Katrina. Her van would have made it easier.

[@mikeflanigan4896]

Very clean no build, build! I love all the ideas.

Lady Bugout is one of my favorite channels! I love her build, everything I've wanted in a camper. Thanks for featuring her. ✌❤🎶

Enjoyed this interview and buildout. I’m in similar situation. Key take away “Conscious decision about life”.

[@normaevett]

I've been following Dee, Lady Bugout, for a while. Glad you two met!

[@donwyates]

Dee has done an admiral job on her build. Very positive vibe, and smiles for miles! Interesting woman.

[@mariaruiz7318]

She inspires happiness in her van life. It's simple with an exotic touch. Thanks to both for sharing ideas👍🏼

A wonderful tour and interview, thank you!

[@raegaenmc3582]

Dee did a wonderful job with such a little space. Thank you for sharing this with us, Bob!

[@MommaOsoIrish67]

At 57, a single female, I've been secretly dreaming about becoming a nomad for quite some time. Both my sons are grown and live 100 plus miles away from me. My mom was here in the same town until she recently lost her battle with cancer. Although I have a wonderful living situation in a subsidized senior complex, the town is very rural. Medical services, other than standard, nurse practitioner issues, require at least 100 miles journey. There's only one market and it's very expensive. Then there's more positives... I live in this rural town on the shores of a gorgeous lake... Negatives. It snows. It snows a lot in the winter. In fact we had snow just two weekends ago. Not feets worth, but still. It highest temperature in the summer is an average of mid to upper 90s with an occasional rise to low 100s. I just think it makes more sense for me to go mobile so I can be nearer my children, nearer medical services, and I can always travel back here when the weather is ideal. Camp on the Lakeshore.... Yep. It's doable.

[@mhayes6864]

She is just a delightful lady that loves her life! Love everything about her van build n gas mileage!

[@c.lavery6037]

This lady is so freaking cool. 😎 She should really be so proud of herself, following her own intuition and using her own ingenuity.

[@XeniasWorld]

I thought I was going crazy bc I was watching Ford Connect builds yesterday and I saw her on GLOW 😁

[@mamawanderlust6000]

Such a great use of space and 30 miles to the gallon is awesome.

Wish I could like this video twice. Amazing set up & incredible Lady! Thank you Bob for more inspiration. 👏👍💪

Lady Bug out, you are so easy to listen to. I learned a ton each time I watch this video. I really wouldn't have thought your vehicle would get such great mileage. Thanks and to you Bob too. From Central Oklahoma

Hey you did a good job. Nice work, be safe out there.

[@gratefulgram]

I loved this interview, what a wonderfully beautiful soul! She did an amazing job and you can tell she just loves what she has and what she is doing. Thank you for sharing

[@jondonahue7163]

I also have a Transit Connect, and they are wonderful. So easy to drive, able to go off-road almost anywhere, and stealthy in the cities, just another little delivery van. Thanks for this video... her layout is excellent, and I will copy that back-door shower rig. My only caveat would be that it is too small for two people. But perfect for one!

[@bradleysmith3963]

I just love hearing her excitement about everything! What a wonderful spirit!💛

[@rndmparker561]

I'm so glad you shared this. It's snug as a ladybug 🐞

[@patriciamuskevitsch8359]

When I find that perfect connect I am doing her exact build...it is perfect. Love that she did all this without complicated electronics, without altering the van and keeping an open floor between the doors...it is perfect for the space.

[@lagunn327]

I follow Lady BugOut and absolutely love her set up!

[@lyndasmith593]

I love love love this van. She has done a magnificent job of getting everything she needs... putting it in very neatly and everything just works for her perfectly. Sooooo nice. Well done!

I love how she had the shower and usb faucet set up! I've never seen that before! I am going to save this video in my favorites so I can come back and see it when I get my van one day!

Funny to see Dee in this video 2 years ago as i follow her since few years and her van had many modifications since and she is the most incredible, adorable , smart , brave , funny , beautiful , inteligent woman in the RV world community and i admire her minimalisme so much to be able to do it in such a small space , living almost full time. I am minimalist as well but could not make it in a small space like this Ford ( I am 6,5 feet tall as wel ) Awesome time with you guys !!! Thank you !!!

[@madamadadane7989]

So great! Thank you, Dee! I love transit connect videos, the owners are so creative with their designs to optimize space

Deeeeee, great interview with an amazingly uplifting lady! I live off grid and found Dee awhile back because she's always sharing hacks that are relatable. Lady Bugout is such a well thought out rig and I'm so glad she got to share her story of how her final van decision came to be, love her channel. I can't help but smile back when that little red Transit rolls through my screen with her huge, beaming smile! Glad to see you're getting to share your journey and live your best life possible Dee, someday I'll go Nomad again, if this place ever gets in order, lol. Thanks for doing these interviews Bob! ❤️🇨🇦

She did an amazing job for a no-build build. Her setups looks very functional. I have a similar usb rechargeable water pump in my camper and they work well and last a long time. Also her van is so cute. Always have liked the little transit vans, and you can’t beat the gas mileage.
