Loved this video! I am a not small girl, and when a lot of the vanlifers I follow are 20 or 30-somethings in the best shape of their lives, my own confidence (or lack thereof) about how I negotiate the small space in my van is something I don't feel comfortable about and/or wouldn't want to share publicly. (I also have four small dogs and a second person in the minivan as well) So even though I could hear the twinges of insecurity in your voice about the camera angles being unflattering, I applaud you for putting this out there. No one talks about the leg cramps because you can't stand up and stretch properly, or when you need to pull yourself out of bed using the handles on the ceiling because there sometimes isn't enough room to roll over or sit up properly, or how difficult it is to put a bra or tight pants on in a hot enclosed car, much less about what you do when you are half undressed and realize that something you need is in the back, and the only way to get it is to open the back door and get out. That is the unglamorous side, but it is reality. In the end, your system looked effortless, well thought out, and very convenient.

What do you do about leg cramps? Magnesium oil is great to stop them after the first one happens but I usually have to hobble around a bit to get it to stop. I just thought about this in the last week and have been curious and honestly a little worried. Staying properly hydrated prevents it and it will be a good reason to stay on top of fluids and salts. 💚

One of my favorite breakfasts to cook in my minivan is as follows: melt some butter in the skillet, add a diced roma tomato and saute' until most of the juice is gone. Add two eggs and scramble. Add some shredded cheese. Season however you like (I use cajun spice), mix all together and spoon into small tortillas. If you feel motivated, add a few slices of avocado before munching!

Hi Dani! I have one of those bendable tripods. They're so handy and fun to set up. Thanks for making this cooking in the van demo for us. If I do this coooking in the van ... using the camping stove ... I would also be a complete newbie. I gotta say though with the spices you used on your eggs, you're a girl after my own heart. About the only thing I would add is a little tumeric. Mmm.... And sometimes if I don't want to do the 2 spices, salt and pepper, I will use cumin instead. I like it either way. 🤷‍♀️ And pink sea salt is really yummy. 😋 Thanks again and enjoy this weekend. 😊 I like that you also made the avacado toast, because it is not something I've ever done yet. When I do it I want to make the toast like wheat I guess or the healthut bread. Then the spread the smooshed avocado on one slice. Topped w the hard fried egg. Like I'm guessing maybe it'd be better to do it theother way around, but ... who are we kidding? I would probably use 2 pieces of bread and make a sandwich. And get it over with. 😆 🤣 😂

Hi Dani, I was at minivanlees meetup in quartzsite. Sharon took a picture of you and I at the campfire. Wearing a yellow floral visor and looking kinda goofy. I can also identify myself as the follower who is more in love with the Abq balloon fiesta than the Grand Canyon. I recognized the wooden bollards on the beach being located in Port A. When you mentioned DG and no Walmart that confirmed it for me. My husband and I lived there from 2009 to 2015. We were camphosts at Island RV. Best time of our lives. I hope to revisit someday. A quaint little drinking town with a fishing problem🥴. I super enjoy and look forward to your new vids

I enjoyed it! I've boondocked a LOT but never cooked inside my SUV or tiny trailer, I was nervous the risk of fire & mess would stress me too much. But you made it seem perfectly feasible.

Your video popped up so I decide, "Hey, she's new to my feed!" I'm so glad I checked you out! I am a bigger woman also, traveling with my Hubby in a Dodge Grand Caravan. I love how you can access what you need to cook from inside the van. We decided 4 months on the road it was something to change. Rain, wind and heat makes for the reason to be able to cook and live in the van. Great video... I really enjoyed it! I love your easy to love personality. If you're ever traveling to Southern Arizona during the winter season, it'll be cool to have meet up!

That WAS helpful! And you know, you were concerned about how you look moving around, but I was way more interested in what you were doing, and where things were stored (you really have this well organized!) to even think about what you looked like! Funnily, I just bought one of those exact same camping stoves recently, as well as a Jackery 300 with a solar panel like yours, just because I get so many power cuts in the rural area where I live. So I already have some of the things I need to go off travelling. I'm an artist now, so I'm wondering where the heck I'll put my art supplies! But I guess I'll just limit what I take with me, and work with that! Thanks again. You are really good at sharing this lifestyle!

Good job girl. I like the Reflectix under the stove & the way you make toast. I love avocado toast too. A little hack I learned the other day, to get the pit out of the avocado just push on the outer skin behind it and it will pop right out. Lol.
