Living the BOND LIFESTYLE with Clothes, Travel, Cars and Events

Come with me as I prepare for BOND travel to a BOND event in BOND style! Working closely with BOND brands, I walk through my process to get the most out of any BOND excursion. You will experience my stay in a hotel fit for BOND, culinary delights that would tantalize BOND himself, and even discuss BOND sartorial choices to be comfortable, but on brand. Then, we will give you a front row seat to an exclusive experience into the world of BOND where all the BOND lifestyle worlds collide together into one amazing evening.

When David is not running an advertising and marketing company, his hobby is The Bond Experience which is primarily a video blog where he discusses Bond experiences and the people and brands that help to create those experiences...
The mantra of living like Bond, one moment at a time emanates from a concept of experiencing the joy of collecting small moments in life that add up to amazing journeys and stories....whether it's through style, locations, literature, fitness, and the movies themselves the world of Bond is explored through its people and their stories.
Ultimately though, The Bond Experience channel is a celebration of the James Bond franchise and the many people that form a true community. Our core mission is to create a strong connection in the Bond community amongst all the fans, regardless of interest or demographic.

'What's the point of living if you can't feel aliiiiive' Meanwhile I'll persevere with my bargain wheelie travel case from Aldi.Also my wash bag & toiletries from Home Bargains. While living the Bond lifestyle....on a budget😏👍

[@TheBondExperience]

That's the best way!

[@seanwarren5613]

Great video, David. I really enjoy this type of content from The Bond Experience🍸

[@michaelpoplawski2998]

A day in the life, what a great idea to cover all aspects of the lifestyle. On my recent DC trip, we ran out of time to visit Moonraker, but made it to the wharf for dinner and drinks. Love the welcome cocktail but no straws, no straws! Nice walk through the museum, seemed like one take...genius. Love the hotel, how was the special meal at Moonraker? The last item, key chain, brings back memories of my first (I think) trip to the Spy Museum in 2003 which started my rediscovery of 007; I have the exact same one and have used it since. Kudos on a really fun and informative tour.

David, you’ve outdone yourself with this video. Like the NYC-Bond Brands video, the length and scope of this one gives us what we’re missing during this Bond film “hiatus.” Locations, hotels, bars, cocktails, food, fashion (product placement). It’s all here, fresh and a feast for the eyes. I did Bond in Motion in London years ago but you’ve sold me on going down to DC to check this out. A couple of nights at The Pendry could entice my wife to join me! Well done and keep them coming.

[@TheBondExperience]

The DC exhibit is worth the trip!

[@jingjoh5297]

i am amazed about how much you love JB. good for you

[@TheBondExperience]

Me too!

[@stevepbrady]

I chaperone an 8th grade trip to DC every year and we used to go to the Spy Museum at it's old location. Have not been to the new one yet- looks great!

[@TheBondExperience]

You need to bring the class back!

[@GosseDrent]

These videos are always some of my favourites. Thank you, David!

[@RolandHulme]

Saturdays are always improved by an early morning TBE video release!

[@TheBondExperience]

Like Saturday Morning cartoons for adults!

[@thestarkknightreturns]

I've been to Bond in Motion in Brussels last year, in June, and it was awesome. The amount of Bond cars is insurmountably good. It even had the Thunderball jetpack, which I'm a real fan of.

[@alexandravoicu7046]

Live the dream ...😊🎉

[@HotelActual03]

I wish I would have known about this! Would loved to have met you, beings as I missed Gatherall last year. DC is only an hour away from me. Will definitely have to take my son to see this exhibit and the whole museum

[@giamb26]

Your videos are always a great escape for me. Love all the John the Barber videos also. Great work! 👍

[@DBear789]

I was so confused when you sat down cos your trousers merged with the carpet! Was like wtf happened to his legs

[@TheBondExperience]

Hilarious!

[@kverkagambo]

Dressed all black in a yellow environment - you look like a extra from Spectre! :D

[@ralphroshia9247]

I'm Going to Washington DC from July 2nd to the 10th for my Summer Vacation and can't wait to go to the International Spy Museum to see the Bond in Motion exhibit and of course the rest of Museum and The Rest of DC but my main reason for going is Bond James Bond and can't wait

[@tonyfarrant1095]

David many thanks for all that you do to make us Bond fans enjoy life more! Keep up the great work.

Great video David. Have to say, I love the AMC Hornet!

Last week I received my Casino Royal Madagascar running "parkour" shirt from Royal Filmware". It looks awesome, the fit is spot on. Feeling like DC 2.0 .Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@billkoenig1552]

re: Tracy's Cougar...There were two cars, a summer car (for scenes filmed in Portugal) and a winter car (for scenes filmed in Switzerland). The Ian Fleming Foundation got the summer car but added the skis. I once drove the IFF car. It's very hard to drive. No power steering. No power brakes. It may look cool but most people today would not want to drive it.

[@TheBondExperience]

Without power brakes, thats a tough one!

[@DafyddBrooks]

18:21 hahaha love it

[@TheBondExperience]

It's a go to quote!

[@johnwalters4792]

Welcome back man

[@TheBondExperience]

Thank you!

[@asdrabkin]

Hi! The video seems to imply that all you used to pack your clothes was your new Bennett Winch bag. I assume you didn't pack the TF suit in it. What did you use to transport the suit?

[@sandersson2813]

As beautiful as the DB5 is, its actually a wretched car. I'd take the OHMSS DBS over it every day of the week.

[@dtuk22]

Yeah! With a "New era" of Bond which will eventually arrive. I hope Eon can move away from the over usage of the DB5 & Aston Martin. The car is a 60+ yr old classic , it just doesn't fit with 2024 & beyond. I'd like to see Bond drive another brand of vehicle like a Bentley as in books. Or I'd like to see a more relatable brand like Jaguar.

[@sandersson2813]

@@dtuk22 I didn't mind the DB5 in Goldeneye, but it just became a tired cliché after that.

[@dtuk22]

@@sandersson2813 So true. The DB5 was Connery's era car. The DBS fitting that Lazenby would drive that. Moore in the Lotus. Dalton in the later V8 all contemporary cars muching that Bonds era. Even Brosnan had BMWS. But when it got to Craig still driving a DB5. A museum piece as he's daily driver...really? Just didn't suit him. Although the DB5 scene in NTTD is a highlight.

[@sandersson2813]

@@dtuk22 The only good thing in NTTD is the step up jump on the Triumph Scrambler. There is not anything else redeeming in that steaming turd of a film.

[@NiceGuyAidey]

Just need to add THE Women for the true Bond Lifestyle 😁😛

[@agent00asmr]

I'm hoping that for Bond 26 they partner with Great Value, Kirkland, Invicta, and Nissan. That way I can afford the Bond brands, LoL. I really hope they open a Bond in Motion on the West Coast soon. Tickets to the exhibit which includes The Spy Museum are $35, that's not bad at all. Thanks again for sharing!!!

[@TheBondExperience]

West Coast needs SOMETHING!

[@billmahan.]

How do you find out about all of these cool events to go to? I never know about them until you feature them. Please share how you find out. Thank you

[@TheBondExperience]

I have a pipeline into these things, but join my Instagram for more up to date announcements.

[@Johnmhemp]

Do you think that you wear something connected with James Bond every day? Besides an Omega watch...do you put on a casual shirt...or slacks...or chukkas? Even if you and your wife are the only ones aware...I find that even unintentionally that I will......except my wife thinks I am going for Steve McQueen....good eye...but no!
