We're Eric & Allison and we're on a journey to find the most interesting places and unique foods this planet has to offer! We've traded in our steady paychecks and permanent home for a life of travel and adventure. Come along and see the world with us!

[@jerrycratsenberg989]

I am beginning to understand your attraction to the Travel Beans, the nearly endless complaining, wishing for bad luck and consistantly finding it. Lighten up you guys.

[@miscellaneousHandle]

As I'm sure others have and will point out. Black first. Let it drain completely. Then grey/gray. The "cleaner" gray water flushes the hose for you.

[@Duurti]

That being said, you still want to use the black flush if you have it, you just don't need to waste as much water.

[@davva360]

Yep, I usually drain black, and refill and drain again before I use the gray (don't have a flush), but you definitely will be dealing with a less gross sewer hose if you do black first.

[@tonys1636]

Things have moved on since the 70's, no hose on the black or grey tanks, one had to manoeuvre until the drain pipes were over the sewer manhole, having removed the cover first and not putting a wheel down it. Some covers were a two person job as thick Cast Iron or concrete.

[@ScottPDX]

For sure, Black first, then gray. Also get a screw in sewar adapter for the dump.

[@forevrsweetangl]

Here to say the same thing

[@darrenheaps9272]

Ok guys....first of all....love you guys! Now, you mentioned that you may not film while in Vietnam...you GOTTA film in Vietnam!!! Not only because it's Vietnam, but you guys are KZbinrs!..hundreds of thousands, which I'm sure will be millions soon, of people wait for your vlogs every week!! Please film in Asia.....pretty please?!?...if you don't, I get it, you have a camera in your face 24/7 and a break is probably needed....did I mention that it's Vietnam?!?...Travel safe guys and have a blast!

[@lunarwench]

My god, seeing Clementine again, she is one of the MOST GORGEOUS tiny homes I've ever seen in my life. The work you've done is stellar and I cannot wait til you can be back in Clementine for good. What a beauty, with function and form in spades.

[@lindamoulton1560]

I literally cried at how adorable your Uber driver was! That was too sweet and genuine!!!

[@TheresaBeanBeanie]

I loved his positive energy.

If Clementine doesn’t drive anymore, then you should park it on a piece of land and rent it out.

[@dubdaz1]

So nice to see Clementine is getting the engine she deserves , thanks to you two she is a unique, beautiful one of a kind motorhome. Giving up on her because of an engine after the absolute heart and soul you put into her transformation would have been a crime. 💕

[@williamgentry3483]

Wd 40.. I used to work on safes and every once in a while to lock it gets stuck and WD-40 was the easiest fix

[@WhereRVGoing]

you should dump the black tank first, then the grey one.. never ever open them or keep them open both together

[@adventuresofjandk]

Correct

[@deestanley9836]

We just got our travel trailer back from the rv repair shop at our dealer. They had to replace our whole entrance door because it wouldn’t lock! Also our air conditioner stopped working so they replaced it with a brand new one. Thank goodness our trailer was still under warranty! Good to see Clementine again! I love the Black Series though, so versatile!!

[@robcreel4257]

I can imagine the stress of cramming last minute storage mixed in with the visa holdups, not to mention the other extraneous issues. Take a breath y'all. Remember to breathe. Take in the small moments that make you smile. Remember to have fun. The taxi driver was good to see. Safe travels, take care!

[@barbarahimes5625]

The work you have both done on Clementine is absolutely amazing. Just beautiful. 😍❤️ BTW, I love that Uber driver! What a sweetheart. ❤️

[@BucketListTravellers]

That uber driver was so nice! If you have lock issues again, maybe try spraying some WD40 in there to see if that loosens things up. We've had some lock issues recently as well. So frustrating when you can't get into your own home!

[@cjcj6945]

Omg y'all, seeing Miss Clementine was like running towards a loved one in slow motion after a long separation!🧡 She looks beautiful! I was very glad to hear you say that you're going to enjoy this trip without filming it, y'all deserve some down time and to immerse yourself in all the wonderful sights & sounds Asia has waiting for you! Much love to you both, we'll se ya when you return stateside.💙💜🙏😇

[@rt3156]

Ohhh, I hope we can have a peak of Vietnam. My Brother served 3 years over there during the war. But whatever you decide have a wonderful and blessed trip.

[@petec9582]

Make sure you get a heavy duty radiator and an oil and transmission radiator, especially since you’re towing

[@mattcramer9187]

My heart. Seeing Clementine again brings back a lot of memories of the past few years. Hope things go smoothly with the trip and return.

[@sophietucker1255]

I know it isn’t your trailer but many people replace the door and hatch locks with better locks. Most of them are just the cheapest thing that works. One person I know replaced the door latch with a touchpad lock that is like the regular key lock on your house.

[@darlenewillbrandt1628]

Please for us old Vietnam Vet's take some pictures and videos. We want to see the country and how things have changed. Hopefully for the better. It wasn't go great when we left there and we weren't so greatly received at home eithier.

[@barbarahimes5625]

I’ll always go with vintage over fancy and new. Serenity now! 😂😂😂

[@scottyrobinson5708]

Anybody else like the video before it got started?! Eric and Allison never ever disappoint you guys bring me so much joy & happiness lots of love 2 you!💯⭐️🤩❤️❤️❤️

[@adventuresofjandk]

Agreed 🎉

Every time. 😃👍

I honestly miss seeing your adventures sans car trouble. One can only take so much headache.

[@grayeagleswolves]

gm Eric and Allison what's going on Adventures That is super great y'all getting things updated on Clementine and storing the Truck and Rv Best of luck on the trip and hope you see a bunch

[@NafiMali]

So sorry for all your stress in this episode. I hope you will have joyfully uneventful flights and can get some rest in L.A. and on those long plane rides. Enjoy Vietnam and Bali.

[@jilllusey7001]

Enjoy your trip. And a break from filming. See you when you get back!

[@bekimoore8761]

Glad you got that lock open. Loved seeing Clementine. ❤She is a beauty! The bigger better engine sounds great. Enjoy your trip. Safe travels. 😊

[@sharakate]

It’s hard when things seem to keep going wrong. But I’m sure you guys will have a GREAT time. I’m sad we won’t get to see it but sometimes, you just have to unplug. Enjoy!

[@yorukkizigeziyor]

Very nice video 👍👍

[@magicmagicman]

I can't imagine how much money you've spent on buying/renovating/fixing Clementine.

[@epp]

They could have just driven their white car from Airbnb to Airbnb across the country

[@Rsaai69]

If you need a break, then take one. We want you to Be happy-rested and continue with the channel. 🙏 enjoy a vacation ❤

[@shawns3113]

Another tip I saw, run a little grey water first to be sure you’re connected to dump line well. Then start your black water and then the grey. Love you two!

[@thanemcrae497]

Love watching you guys. Look on the bright side; You weren't attacked by a swarm of Cluster Flies like your friends the Beans were. Have a great next adventure.

[@drlong08]

I'm beginning to think the only luck you have is bad luck....welcome to vintage RV ownership! As you may notice, it rubs off on any RV or camper you decide to use... new or old!

[@2112acj]

Film the Vietnam trip. It's such a beautiful country. Good you are getting a new engine and transmission. That will do ya until the rear end goes out.

[@waytoson]

Your uber driver was so fun.. Love the smiles.hopefully he helped lift your spirits.. Safe travels....

[@sugarsalt6637]

Back when you were renovating it, I warned you that all that wood would add to much weight. Your standard issues engine was not made to tow that weight. Hopefully your new one will work better.

[@KevIsOffGrid]

Enjoy your break, if you don't film and take that break enjoy it even more. I'm sure a break can only make future content better - everyone needs a break, good for the mental health - don't deny yourselves that.

[@picklesontheroad]

One thing I've learned about our Winnebago is to NOT use all 4 locks on the door! Why it has 4 locks, I'll never know. We have a standard deadbolt that I could replace with any hardware store one and then the standard lock has 2 more "Deadbolts" built into it as well as the standard locking latch. Happy travels, and we'll see ya when you get back. We're sitting still for a while to repaint, upgrade a few items and help our daughter out a little. Not filming a bunch right now either. BTW Clementines new engine swap is going to be great! It's pretty common to replace older small block Chevy engines with what they call an LS swap. It's super simple with all of the aftermarket support you could ask for. You're going to love it!

[@PWS777]

What a nice looking dog in the truck wash place. That alone would have turned the difficult day into a pleasant day! What kind of dog was Billie the Kid?

[@caddyzig]

Poor Clementine! I’m glad she’s okay and that she’ll be back on the road soon. Too bad they screwed up on the first replacement engine! Safe travels.

[@mikeanderson6522]

Please film some to show how 1 day went. Glad you showed how to break into trailer. Ha. If they want in that bad,. They just break glass. Have a great trip. Love your videos.

I’m sorry you’ve had so many hiccups. I totally feel you when you talk about the little things that keep happening that can be frustrating. We just appreciate you both and your videos and even the transparency when things go wrong. I hope you have a fantastic trip! Wear sunscreen!

[@doug_harbaugh9476]

Nice to show the world how to break in these campers. There’s stuff you share and stuff you edit out.

[@robertdragoff6909]

Billy the Kid was a cute dog…. But, if he has a litter of puppies, where is Mrs. Kid? Hope you guys have a safe flight and a terrific time in Vietnam.

[@jeannesauvage117]

Yikes! I am so sorry you have had to go through all of that! And I hope you have a wonderful trip--enjoy yourselves and we will see you when you get back!

[@nancyhaynes4459]

You guys are really an inspiration. My husband and I are retired and are trying the RV life for mini vacations. We are currently on a trip to 2 Harbors, Minnesota. We are from Oklahoma and so far we have had a blow out which damaged some wiring under the pull-out. Then our keys got locked inside the camper and we also had to break into our camper. Then I trip and fell which cracked a rib. However, we are so blessed knowing that God has been sending just the right people our way to help us in our time of need. Do we ever have some stories to tell our kids.

[@musictherapy7870]

Hang in there yall! I have faith you guys will overcome & get through those hurdles because you have always got through 🙏 Prayers for safe travels & looking forward to the new adventure ❤️ We love you! Sending you lots of hugs

[@ANgThur]

You guys did a great job on Clementine, it's gorgeous inside. Are you guys gonna ride the bike along the coast in Vietnam? Really excited to see your videos, have a good trip and see you guys soon on the next videos.

[@janadachingwa9234]

Please have a safe trip and be back an Clementine will be ready for he road. Do not have any problems, where will be prayers for a safe and good trip. Will miss your videos but will see pictures you take. Stay safe. Walk in Peace. Be Happy.

Not surprised you have been feeling down, with everything that has gone wrong. New chapter am sure things will get better. Best wishes from UK.

[@jonathanself1263]

Before you commit to a new engine...what about adding a custom radiator? We did that to my kid's Jeep that kept overheating. The stock radiator just wasn't enough. Mechanic either built or had one built with a lot more coils. That resolved our issues with the factory design :(

[@adventuresofjandk]

Great video as always you two. Thanks for the early morning entertainment.

[@angelacraw2907]

Nice to see Clementine again and yes you guys did do a great refurb. I wasn't sure you would go to this expense of putting in a new engine, but i'm so glad you did. Enjoy your holiday guys.

[@gemmacorinne9487]

As a fellow content creator (stream in twitch) I always encourage people to take a break from creating, and then if you miss it while you’re out there. You can always pick it up!

[@DavidandSarah]

That was great thinking going in through the grill cupboard! That's some camping ingenuity right there... camping forces us to be creative in a whole different way. Poor Clementine is just not having a good run at the moment hopefully the new engine will just be a fresh start for you guys. Also, there's nothing like some international travel to cheer you up!

[@ColoradoSoundboy]

Just met the Travel Beans in Manitou Springs, Colorado and talked about your van swap. Too bad y'all didn't get to the whole journey together.

[@The_Charlie_Whiskey]

You will enjoy Vietnam. Beautiful country, good food, reasonable prices etc. The markets are a must see as well.

[@RustyCannon34]

We had the same problem with our locks when we brought our new Travel Trailer home. Changed our locks out with a keyless entry lock

[@Mashariki_0]

I love the energy of the uber driver, such an awesome guy.

[@fangsbites]

I know it wasn''t funny for you at the time, but it was funny to watch you break into the trailer. And I got emotional watching you reunite with Clementine. Looking forward to seeing you in Vietnam! Awesome video.

[@travelertrome8449]

Wow van/RV life takes so much patience! I felt your frustration with that lock, Eric. I was excited to see you guys back in an airport again! I know this is selfish of me, but I hope you guys continue to vlog a lot while in SE Asia. You guys were in Thailand when I first discovered you and subscribed. So excited to see you guys back in Asia again! I've watched your reruns countless times. Looking forward to a new one!! 🌎

[@alexisalbright6376]

You could always find a little plot of land in a big city that people travel too & make clementine into a sweet little air b&b! She wouldn’t have to drive & you could make an income on her!

[@rick0757]

Next time don’t pull both tanks at the same time. Flush black first. Then rinse black. Then flush gray.

[@christopher962]

You need a keyless RV lock. Latch It! makes great ones. I've been in the same situation, never again after I upgraded my lock.

[@chelseacarpenter6332]

Just wanted to drop and in and say that I am absolutely loving your channel. I only discovered you guys a few weeks ago and have already spent so many days binge watching your videos - so much fun, adventure and great food! Keep up the amazing work :)

LS conversion is the way to go. Starts in the cold, etc. The small block Chevy works, but LS much better

[@lindseys4978]

I’m soooo glad you’re keeping. Clementine! I was so worried you were going to sell her! She’s beautiful and I love you’re getting a newer engine. 🙏🏻it fits and goes well.

no way would they sell her (after just finishing her) after all that work they put in!

Safe travels! I totally understand what your flights are going to entail. But at least you're splitting it up with some time in LA. In 2016, we flew from Fort Lauderdale to Singapore, but the route was through Atlanta with a 2.5 hour layover there, then a 15 hour flight to Seoul and another 2.5 hour layover there, then a 6 hour flight to Singapore.

I hope that Clementine's upgrades will solve all her issues and yall get back in your home soon. If however that doesn't happen you might want to rename her Lemontine... I'm pretty optimistic you're on the right track with the bigger engine though.

Have a great trip. I think you are smart to take a vacation from filming. Others have mentioned your dumping. But ...... You can buy a plastic elbow the will attach to your hose and fit snuggly into the dump pipe. This eliminates any chance of spilling.... at least at that end.
