How Living In A Van Has Changed My Life 1 Year On

Living in my van for 1 year, the good, the bad and the ugly!
This channel is all about my personal journey as a Full Time Van Lifer with a dog called Rupert and complete beginner trying to build a KZbin Channel. In May 2023 my landlord gave me 60 days notice to leave my rented house. Long story short, I couldn't find a suitable property to rent. I only wanted a small flat but because I have a dog (Rupert) none of the landlords would accept me. So, with time running out I decided to move into my small Citroen Dispatch Van temporarily until I could find somewhere for me and Rupert to live . After 5 months in my tiny van I decided that I loved van life but needed a bigger van, so I got one! Follow me as I re-invent my life, my work, my relationships and my mental well being.

Your video is very inspiring, I look forward to the next one and I’m your new subscriber.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thank you, Kev

[@simonharding3109]

Me too 🙂

[@stephengirling7859]

Good to see you doing well Kev. Now about to do the same at 67. Sick of throwing £1200 a month into a rented house. Spent the last two years getting my van ready with everything i need and now gonna take the plunge.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Well done mate, just go for it! Kev

[@mikeclare5907]

Good day to you Stephen, Mike from County Durham..............Pleased to see you as an older person making the move, I am so envious :) I do have a small van, a nissan nv200 done out in a simple manner and thoroughly enjoy the stealth camping just about anywhere. Your rent is eye watering and could be put to a lot better use.....................as you are doing. Best wishes Mike

[@ktd2956]

Hello, fellow wrinkleys :). I'm 67 and in the process of finishing my conversion of my 2018 peugeot boxer L3 H2. My ex wife(we're still good friends) thinks I'm a little bit bonkers but nevertheless has encouraged me to do what my heart tells me to do. Wish I'd done it many years ago,but,life always seemed to get in the way. But now,my kids are all grown up with kids of their own,they tell me to go for it and take time to "find myself" so,that's what I'm going to do. I wish you all the very best Kev,and any others who on this road.

[@mmwaashumslowww7167]

By the time that you have sorted everything out and are finally free to travel, you shouldn't be far off getting your state pension. That should cover the costs of running the van and a few hours working at something, will ensure that you have some put by for repairs and emergencies. No more house bills to pay is most of the battle won.

[@64PaulR]

I am 60 and thinking of doing van life now to see the UK and Ireland. To retire I don't think I would have enough to continue renting and living a brick and mortar existence. I live alone. Your video is very inspiring and brings me hope.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

It can be done! go for it!

[@chrisc9406]

Ìnteresting to hear you talk so openly about your personal situation. May you continue to enjoy van life and the freedom which it brings. 👍

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thank you so much!

[@leojmullins]

I admire your attitude. Gratitude keeps away despair and resentment.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thank you, Kev

[@symonsmith3497]

I have lived in my van for 27 years. but for the past 3 years, in a small flat. (getting old) If i had a newish van now, I would move back in. Miss my van day's

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thanks for sharing

[@Go4Corvette]

I retired two years ago and now living on social security. I was traveling in my truck and pulling a trailer that I lived in for about a year but I didn't like towing so I rented an apartment sold the truck and trailer, and purchased a Ford Econoline Van that I am currently converting into an RV. I plan on hitting the road again in about 3 months full-time nomad, free camping, and seeing all the things I never had time for while raising my kids. It's go till I drop for me. Good luck to you and have fun.

[@user-vs7lm5ns4f]

I started on the same journey a few years ago at first its difficult but as time goes by you discover that life is alot better ...less stressful...my journey started after I was operated on for Cancer and forced to slow way down...but I think GOD has all of this in his hands and who can argue with his way?...nice video, down to earth and honest..thank you for sharing

[@joeblow1942]

3 years and 1 month of 24/7 van life for me so far. I don’t miss living in a house.

[@shauncooke9837]

2013 I had nothing, so I lived in a van. Ended up on my feet with my own business doing well and I still live in it why pay someone else's mortgage to sleep and look at TV. You get used to it and I love it

[@patriciagorn6645]

Hi kev I moved to Spain to live in a caravan no regrets after living in the one house for 30years . Want a van now just me and my dog . Glad you've found a way through 😂

[@kathytaylor2605]

Enjoy your life because at our age we never know how much longer we have. I enjoyed listening to your story, have a great day

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Spot on!

[@Willzivanlife]

Great to hear everything’s working out for you.. Vanlife for sure is a better life and meet amazing people.. Hope all your wishes and dreams come true my friend 🤟

[@cheesecake7671]

Be aware of condensation and deadly mold when winter comes which can easily occure with poor insulation, lack of ventilation and heating.

[@mrsmedlock5222]

Nice to hear you are happy inside and out. Hugs to Rupert. X

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thanks Mrs Medlock ;-) Kev & Rupert

[@Jchristopher-lg9bz]

Inspirational. I think making such a big change later in life must be very good for the mind, problem solving, constant challenges versus the humdrum familiarity of everyday ratrace living. I wish you a long and healthy life, Sir.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thanks for your message, yes I have always liked to challenged, I seem to do my best when I'm in corner, it's hard sometimes but that's just life

[@dna6440]

Hi kev could you afford to take yourself off for a week get a break from the unit . Maybe come back feeling a little refreshed to tackle the stuff you’re trying to sell in the unit . I love your videos look forward to your chats about life and looking forward to your freedom to hit the road ❤

[@my2cworth4U]

Van life is hard, but it's good for the soul. 👍

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Spot on

[@zoethepom357]

ive been binge watching your channel and if you go travelling maybe get a drone to capture footage, Rupert will also help draw more watchers as well - its inspiring to watch and makes me want to do the same as you

[@Sunris19k]

Hi kev. I live full time in my van I've nearly finished converting it. If you need a hand finishing yours I'd be happy to help.

[@petreamccarthy8635]

Thoughtful analysis Kev. Your channel grows because you're so open and realistic. It's a refreshing change from all those who make this life and their vans seem so perfect. Real life is people like you - and me - with our imperfect self converted work vans. 😊😊

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi Petrea, thanks for your message. I'm just keeping it real, I wouldn't enjoy making theses videos if I had to put on a different act all the time. Cheers, Kev

[@jedics1]

1 month into "vanlife" I knew I was never going back, 5 years later and it could not have worked out better. I have all the comforts, few of the bills and none of the stress of our regular modern life of servitude to the dollar. Instead I have plenty of free time in its place to look on at the madness of our civilisation while it chokes on itself....

[@peterrowe9454]

Great honest vlog Kev, keep them coming mate, all the best to you both. Stay safe and take care.

[@smooth111012]

Well done, what happened is you stepped out of the box, freedom. Your vibration has become raised and older friends are lower, newer ones match your frequency

[@lucyjay7963]

Be happy. You did what was best for you and your dog at the time. Walk by faith not by sight. Have a safe blessed peaceful day. Shout-out from Ohio

[@youwouldvelovedit]

You are much happier because you are following your true self, to my mind.

[@hafa231]

So happy to come across your channel. You have shared some real jems. especially talking about your business taking a back seat and the focus to work on it in the future.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thank you, yes keeping things in balance is a struggle for sometimes, I feel like I'm spinning plates

[@ceciliamachado8177]

Hi Kev! I hade a major event happen to me and going vanlife was the only thing that changed my energy for the better. I just got back home (Sweden) and drove thrue seven countrys all by myself. Scary as a single woman at first but then you just feel more alive than scared. Im 50 now and cannot see myself going back working 8 hours for just paying bills again. My wake up call was a burnout. We only live once so I hope that my van will stay with me for a long time. ❤ Glad I found your KZbin. You describe the ups and downs in words so well. Subcribed

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi Cecillia, thanks for your message, what a story! I admire your strength of character to do what you are doing! Kev

[@amiteshdattamath]

Great video as usual, Kev! I love your authenticity and how it is just you talking to the camera, and the large view counts your videos consistently get reflect what a great speaker you are and how powerful your words are. Congratulations on hitting 2k subscribers!! 🥳 You've basically got a town full of subscribers at this point and it's wonderful to see how fast it is growing!

[@Re-CreatingKev]

I appreciate that! thanks o much as always, Kev

[@jayb429]

I love your honesty Kev. I spent two years travelling on my own after setting myself a challenge to see if I could travel as cheap as renting a flat. It was amazing! I went to Portugal, Spain, Norway, France, Iceland, The arctic Circle. It was wonderful :) 8 weeks ago I came back to England and rented a little cottage. Its lovely but I miss travel and would love to do what you are doing! Your are a lucky man to get off the hamster wheel. All will be good! Jay x

[@Theresa-s9u]

We can't t do much because l work . I stay in parks we to.poor to travel. But we happy living in our van

[@letsgo9969]

I've been full time nearly 3 years not looked back love the videos

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thanks mate, I don't think I'll look back either, cheers, Kev

[@ptonpc]

Work to live not live to work. Enjoy the time you have and give Rupert extra pets from us.

[@Drew-uu7qh]

Just come across your channel love it

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@thegnarlybarn4135]

Brilliant video: A brutally honest review of your first year. It's very easy to fall into the trap of thinking all you have to do is sell up, pack up, move into your lovely converted van and off you go. That may be the reality for the few, but as in your case, there are many who experience a sudden, unplanned change in personal circumstances and before you know it you're living in a van. Thank you for your direct and honest content - it's still inspiring to watch.

[@railinly610]

I lived in a long wheel base Renault trafic for 5 1/2 years. Not a high top either, couldn't stand up. I found it to be sustainable as long as i had a decent place to park up on private land, because i work and need a postal address at least. There are up-sides and down-sides to full time van life and you /anyone really have to be up for it and prepared to accept the compromiseses and challenges that come with the life in the UK. These days I'm in a small touring caravan, which is better really. I can't see me any time soon being able to ever live in a bricks and mortar property. Mid 50s and this is what i have to show for life.

[@Dottydoraukexplorer]

Hi Kev...great video as always and congratulation on the growth of your channel😊

[@merlenechambers575]

Good on you Kev, making changes and going with these changes. I am very happy for you and Rupert.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thanks Merlene, Kev

[@lizscott6911]

Glad it is going well for you. I got a 2 birth Motor Home after my husband of 50 years passed away. I still have bricks and morter but travel the UK 4 minths a year. Free parking. I love it. I guess it suits the free thinking amoung us. Keep on Keeping On.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Fantastic, well done and happy travels, Kev

[@l.a.v.alindysawesomevanadv3428]

You'll get it together

[@jimfromm3981]

I'm 80 and have a wanderlust. My wife is 78, and she loves our home. I have enough money to travel cheaply and she supports my little (usually fishing-motivated) adventures. I have to be careful to plan well. I live in the United States and healthcare is difficult because the insurance companies make it difficult if you are not home-based. Take care, and enjoy your adventures. It's nice to know there are folks like myself who are willing to change perspectives and are not depressed by new horizons. I've become a subscriber. I hope you can continue to create more new and interesting content.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi Jim, thanks for watching. You are an inspiration to us all sir! Kev

[@ad-van-ture]

Unexpected journeys are often the most enlightening! I've experienced van life first through necessity then through choice, it seems to get in your blood! Its amazing how little is needed to not only survive but thrive both materialisticly and financially it seems once you get off the treadmill you can view it for what it is"a drain on the spirit"happy travels bud im off from uk next week going up through europe to Sweden and Norway🤞 I guess we are all caged nomads but some of us know and some dont? 🙏

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Thanks for your comment, at the moment I can only dream of going on an adventure like that, have a great time, Kev

[@catmando4448]

Good luck on making the changes you want in your life. Congrats on one year!

Came over from mark's channel mate , just subbed. Love how you keep it no nonsense and basic. Shows people like me that's being overwhelmed looking at posts on Facebook thinking can I do this 😄 nice one kev

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi Billy, thanks for the message. I know what you mean about being overwhelmed by all the social media stuff! I only look at KZbin now and just stick to the people that I like to follow! You can do it mate, go for it! Kev

[@scoutfinch47]

Reflections and honesty make this video brilliant. Thank you.

Hi Kev, I saw your Mad Mark interview. I'm a similar age to you and have been full time for a year. I'm happier now than I've been in years and won't go back to bricks and mortar again. I have not travelled anywhere yet but have been living next to a lake with wild swans,geese,ducks and other wild birds.. I may travel when my next van is finished (at least habitable). I haven't got a KZbin channel cos I wouldn't know where to start for one thing. I don't fancy a van build series as there's enough of them already, maybe something just about life in general...

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi, definitely go for the KZbin channel, it's a nice hobby! Have we met? Kev

[@chirovandenbos2339]

People are programmed robot slaves of the system thinking happyness starts with extern factors like status, money, material things that means nothing and its relativ and an illusion create by society. If your happyness depend on extern factors you will never be because extern factors are endless. Happyness starts inside you. The more people around you, the more expectations, talk about others, lying, frustrations, negativity, jealousy, double standards, violent, hate, own benefits, judge, comparing etc..... reflection of their broken souls. Alone or in solitude you have more strength, peace, power, happyness, freedom and time. And no, not feeling superior or better then others but more be carefully and awake. Be the light in your own life.

[@letscook63]

Well said, I’m 65 and not old by any means and just started car camping. I want to travel the UK. For years I’ve saved money to get out of poverty back in the day now I can afford a decent vehicle. I don’t waste anything, don’t smoke etc I’m leaving a regular home life to explore & travel.

[@chirovandenbos2339]

​@@letscook63 very nice and yes, you are never to old....you have 1 life and its yours and your happyness. I am 44 now and choose to stay single, no kids and save to do that i hope before 50 I have to look where because the Netherlands has to many rules and its to small for vanlife or explore.... Blessed to you and your journey 🫴✨✨✨🍀

Great comments, thank you, Kev

[@davelee9791]

Enjoying your down to earth content without the clickbait drama of so many KZbinrs,Hoping you get the business sorted soon I was in a similar position with a container full of stuff from house clearance trying to sell it on the usual outlets until one day I totalled the whole lot up it amounted to about 6 months rent on my unit.. I decided to donate everything I could to a local charity shop and rid myself of the overheads.. never been happier..Take care Fella.

Hi Dave, great comment! That's just about where I'm getting to now! So hard to let go but you are 100% correct! Thanks, Kev

[@lindaalaniz7129]

I can relate to your circumstances of how you came to living in a van. I’m enjoying your genuine and down to earth content. Another good UK vanlifer to meet up with is Craig from KZbin channel Destination Unknown vanlife. Cheers from Sydney Australia ✌🏻

Hi, thanks for your kind words. I also like watching Craig, he seems like a decent guy. Kev

Hari OM Congrats on the year! I have been vanning for 14 months now - missed the anniversary due to being down with COVID 😬- and really ought to be doing a van tour update and review like this too. I have been converting The Grey as we have travelled, so it does take time, but it has also meant that I could adjust and shift and find the layout that best suited how we are going to keep rolling - so do try a trip or two away, Kev, in order to check that out for yourself.

Kev my boy first time I've spoke on a KZbin channel I admire and envy you I live in a beautiful little cottage in the middle of a field in Normandy France, but I feel trapped and not free as you are. If you're ever in France please pop in and share a bottle of wine or two...

[@joline2730]

Good day to you 👋 it was interesting hearing about your progression over the last year . . . and mostly for the better. I hope you can make a big effort to get everything out of that second unit, making some money in the process, to build up funds, and perhaps only work from the other one, since you still need some kind of income from the sound of it - especially with those recent repairs. If the van is liveable, then that should come second - trying to deal with two things at once will just be distracting from your real goal of having/making enough dosh to enjoy your new vanlife. As someone else has commented here, the State Pension beckons, which is just wonderful when they pay you - after all you paid your stamp (I hope‼️) over the years so you rightly deserve it. Two suggestions : One: make a point of getting a heater by around Oct/Nov, so you will be ready when Winter arrives, and Two: take some time off for a brief holiday to re-charge your batteries now the weather is warmer (we hope 😮) . . . Nothing like a change, it's as good as a rest - come back refreshed 👍👍💯💯

[@brendancosgrove664]

I'm 67 once you get state pension ites a lot easier get yourself a cooker that runs off refillable butain bottle alot cheaper 👍

Thank you, Kev

[@tenners3258]

Same situation myself,but 5 years older,and surviving on a reduced State Pension.I bought a Hiace (don't need a high roof as I don't move about that well these days anyway). Done all the insulation/cladding,though still got to finish it with Danish oil.I've lived in a motor before(ancient mini traveller!) during periods of homelessness so it holds no terrors for me...anyway,when you're this old what is there to lose?! I'll move into mine mostly incomplete,not least because I want to experience in practice the best place to position cooker/bed/etc I only watch youtube, as computers are pretty boring,so I'll be glad to subscribe and watch how stuff turns out for you. You make a nice change from the people that stuff some van full of MDF and loads of cheap gadgets imported from China.....they know they can always run back to Mum and Dad's when it gets a bit chilly....

[@irenemohan]

If you are on a reduced state pension you should apply for pension credit - it will give you extra money to help with your living costs.

[@tenners3258]

Yep,thanks for taking the time.Up till recently I had a carer that lived in and because they weren't of pensionable age, they were considered a partner.....I'm tired of fighting the system,I can manage on what Iv'e got.Things have been worse. Take care.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

They make everything as hard as possible! I wish you well and all the best, Kev

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi, thanks for watching. I've got a couple of years to go before I reach my pension age, unless they decide to put the age up again! Kev

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi, I wish you all the best. Like you, I think it's best to live in a van with the bare basics at first and then build it how you want it and how it fits in with your own life. Thanks, Kev

[@vetworker]

Just found your channel. Great stuff. Will be watching your content with interest. I’m on that hamster wheel, paying rent, bills, going to work etc. fed up with paying a ton of money to live in a house I don’t own or am rarely in. Will be living the van life in a few years hopefully.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Go for it, best of luck

Much appreciated, Kev

[@krisgen29]

That's interesting Kev. I would say that there are a large percentage of people who do not enjoy van life, and are only in that situation out of necessity. So well done. There is one thing that needs addressing eventually, though. What are you going to do when your 'body' can't do it anymore?

[@minigirl6839]

I heard him say in another video that he doesn't want to live anywhere when he gets to the point where it's difficult for him to live as he's living. I'm paraphrasing ,so those weren't his exact words, but it was something very close to what I recall. I do remember when I heard him say it, it really did get my attention because I can relate to his feelings.

[@Re-CreatingKev]

Hi, thanks for your message. The simple answer is, as long as I have done it, when I get to the stage in my life where I can't do it, I will have no regrets, Kev
