First Time VAN LIFE in Australia Begins | What is it REALLY Like?

[@yumemirutenshi]

This inspires me to do my own van trip. The rawness of the vlog gave us a real glimpse of potential issues we could face. Really great and enjoyable video.

[@project_where]

So glad it inspired you! ☺️🫂

[@pcfcgt]

I am so happy for you guys, enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ometofu]

Wait wait wait. 1 hour. We are here for a treat!

[@kartof1]

Very entertaining. So much cinematic technique setting up shots to show walking away and then after going back for the camera.

[@stephard1616]

G'day guys. Try to get into a habit of setting up a table and chairs outside. Also invest in butane cartridge stove around $30.00 at kmart or woolies to cook outside. It will add variations to your dining experience

[@CruisinMotorhomes]

What an amazing episode guys! We're SO thrilled you enjoyed the van life!

[@project_where]

An amazing episode thanks to your wonderful campervan☺️🚐

[@stojanpavlovic5935]

Great to see you again guys! Best regards from Switzerland ❤💪

Great video, with a natural feel to it. Good photography and I am sure as the trip continues, so will your experience. Just a side note that many people do not realize . When turning on a gas bottle you only need half a turn, it is not like a tap. In an emergency it is only half a turn off. The valve does not need to be opened fully. Drive safe.

[@project_where]

Really? We didn’t know that😮we were told to open the gas fully! Thanks, now we’ll keep it in mind.

[@GaryDiamondComedy]

Great video guys! I watch a few travel vlogs and this is one of the best! Love the detail and all the places you stop at, meals etc Plus an hour long is great! Can't wait for the next one. Keep having fun guys and never forget how lucky you are to have each other 😊

[@edwin-qb3lm]

You guys really organized for the trip! Best way to spend time together and see Australia. 🌷💓♥️🌹🙏💪🇨🇳🇭🇲

Thank you so much! 🫶

The Umpherston sinkhole looks amazing and is something different. Great road trip.

[@otabekpardabaev4929]

A great channel and a great video. I wish I had explored Australia more when I was there. Hope I will have another chance in the future.

[@project_where]

We hope you have another chance to explore it! We’re loving it so far! 🇦🇺

[@TungNing]

I am from Indonesia and a fan of your journeys. I do hope u gain more and more subscribers (maybe activate the auto generated Indonesian translation to reach more Indonesian audience that can't speak English?) . Really like your videos. And this one is one of the best 👍❤ Can't wait for the next episodes!

[@project_where]

Hey, thank you so much for your support! We always enable auto-translation for all countries 😮 Could you please check if it’s not working?

[@TungNing]

​@@project_where oh never used the auto translation before. Have tried. Yes it works! 👍💪

[@shanelambert6192]

Did a Perth, Adelaide, and Sydney trip a couple of years ago. In February so I didn't take any winter clothing. After my first night in Adelaide, the first thing I did in the morning was go buy a jumper. Then the weather warmed up, and it was several months before I needed warm clothing. The temperature can be unpredictable in Australia.

[@jeremysun7365]

No matter how hot the day is, the night can be so different.

[@mervynpeka]

Horses love you guys.....happy days. Great food idea from mum.....lentil bolognaise....

[@oxoelfoxo]

so nice to go on this trip with you guys! Australia's so beautiful (at least the coastal portion haha)

[@project_where]

We are so glad you’re enjoying it with us!

Have a great time....I wish I could do this.

[@Oleg_Ya]

Ещё полностью не посмотрел, слишком уж огромное видео, прям целый фильм :) Но уже здорово! Поздравляю!) Когда исполняются мечты это прям шикарно!) PS. Кстати, по поводу формата, имхо, час - это многовато, т.к. не у всех есть время посмотреть такой большой фильм за раз, а потом можно и забыть досмотреть :(. Обычно 25-35 минут считается оптимальным вариантом длительности, чтобы там всякие параметры важные для ютуба не падали (удержание зрителей и всё такое, например, могут подписаться чтобы посмотреть следующую часть если видео остановилось на интересном).

[@project_where]

Да мы когда снимали, не рассчитали что так много выйдет 😅 уж очень были взволнованы новым путешествием и хотелось все все показать и запечатлеть ☺️ но спасибо за совет, учтем!

[@user-od3ur5em4c]

Hi have been there many years ago and it is beautiful in summer on a 44 degree day

[@project_where]

😁

[@user-od3ur5em4c]

@@project_where The sink hole in SA where you both walked down to touch the water. When I was there here was no stairs or man made platform, we jumped in and had to climb back up. It is something I will never forgot. SA gets very hot in Jan/Feb and I remember that it was in the 40s that particular day. No one ventured to far away from the edge. Enjoy your travels and I look forward to watching many more :)

Mount Gambier!! Lots of Vietnamese settling over there back in 1970?

[@alanbgtan]

When you first picked your vehicle & the later was introducing, best to video record her instructions.

[@alexzonneveld34]

Love it

[@darrylk808]

That's my favorite Laksa, too! They make it with whole grain also. Love both. Don't over cook the whole grain noodles.

[@project_where]

It is the best!! 😄

[@Moscowexpat-u1f]

I liked the content very much. It s something I want to do. How much was the van per day or week so we can figure expenses or will you post that later? Enjoy. Take care of each other.

[@TheAisha922]

Try to get a used Mercedes T1N sprinter van. Get the year before 2006 and older. Its diesel engine is very reliable. You can still get those from Europe.

[@project_where]

Won’t it break down often if it’s from before 2006? It sounds like it’s a bit of an older car

[@TheAisha922]

@@project_where I own two of these vans. Give you about over 28mpg. They call this Mercedes engine a million-mile engine. In the Middle East or African countries, you will see old Mercedes 300ds that have been driven for more than a million miles.

[@frankborg1534]

Awesome guys how much is it per day for the Van? Has it got solar charging?

[@project_where]

Hey! It depends on where you’re headed and how long you’re renting for. Just hit the link below the video to check out the site we used and see prices for dates that work for you ☺️

[@project_where]

Yeah, we have a solar panel right on the roof of the campervan, it’s super convenient!!

[@jeremysun7365]

checked the site. so it is roughly $500 a day for a minimum of 10 days. That's quite some money. That said, you save the bill for a room, which is roughly $100 a night. You can cook in the van, which, in Australia, could be more expensive.

[@ermond]

Are you coming to Brisbane? I'll show you both around

[@OKDownUnder3000]

Come to Perth. We have cookies 😂

[@leeflynn8734]

Love ❤ from vietnam

[@nicholaslam831]

Easier to buy a complete done one than doing your own trust me

[@project_where]

Did you tried to make it by yourself?

[@Labelcoke]

Justin is time to workout😆😆

[@darrylk808]

I've been looking into vanlife for the last 8 years... haven't pulled the trigger yet because my wife refuses to 💩 in a bucket. Basic cargo vans run $40K-$70K. At the upper end you can get a Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 cargo van. To build it out, there are companies that can do it for $20K (minimal) to $80K (pretty nice). One like yours that is built out will run $120K-$180K (new). US pricing. If you don't mind not standing you can build out a minivan, you have a HiAce in Aus? These are not as comfy and probably best for 1 person.

[@project_where]

Thanks for the insight! We’re in the same boat, torn between saving by going secondhand (loads of options on Facebook Marketplace) and the risk of repair costs, which aren’t cheap here. New, pre-built vans are pricey, so we’re leaning toward a DIY build. It’ll definitely be time-consuming, but honestly, I think it might be fun?!🙃

[@darrylk808]

@project_where lots of youtube videos on van builds. Check out the CheapRVLiving youtube channel with Bob Wells. Lots of good videos.

[@oxoelfoxo]

i'm hoping the romance of van life doesn't wear off after a few weeks. maybe if you're forced to live in one for years then it surely will

That said, it is easier to find one in a house than a van.

[@pimesonhadron]

@ mate my comment was based on the bit where they left their shoes on the grass so as not to mess up the van. I did see their shoes inside eventually - so all good :)
