@josegoodwin8812 Lol we are just getting started, Jose 😏

[@margaretlight3863]

Thanks for the smile ‘s😅😃 😅

[@SarahvanCaravan]

You are welcome, Margaret! I had a lot of fun with this one 😁 I cant wait to do another dance scene. I will have to think of another scenario to interpret

Hello from Ynys Mon an island off the coast of Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. I'm looking forward to watching your van build unfold. Good luck

[@SarahvanCaravan]

@@janemsxrayspecs9843 WOWZAS!!! You come from a far off land! That is super cool. I have never been on that side of the world. I hope you like what is coming up next! 😁 wow. Wales 😳

#103 on Dec 29 I am loving the detail drawings! I am not a carpenter, but I can visualize this now. Thanks! Big encouragement sent your way!

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Thank you, Louise!! #103 🥳🥳🥳 I wonder if anyone noticed in the drawings that our drawer fronts will be curved. I am excited to get to that part 😁

[@Seams_in_the_Wild]

​@@SarahvanCaravanoh, no,I missed that detail! How interesting! I thought the 10" depth was at an angle. I can't wait to see the building of it!

[@gordonhenderson1965]

@@SarahvanCaravan Oh I noticed them. My first thought was- "This is clearly a fellow graphic design Grad", my second thought, from having been a woodworker for quite awhile, was "Nope". Not dissing you, just know that function will override form eventually.

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Haha talent knows talent!! A graphic design grad and woodworker you say?? You are my people. The curved dresser actually serves a very important purpose… it provides my big butt with enough clearance to get through the door!! so I would say it is very functional in this case 😅😅😅

#41 here from State of Iowa USA Love your video, your humor and editing is top notch. Can't wait to see more!

[@SarahvanCaravan]

@@grumpyiwegianpodcast3505 teehehe thank you, Grumpy! Welcome to the first 100 subs! Wow all the way from Iowa! This is going to be an amazing community. I can tell. Y’all are frikkin awesome. I hope the next video is good. I will be filming a very dramatic build scene tomorrow. I hope it does not rain on me or I will probably be crying in my video.

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Its ok though. The rain will hide my tears 🤷‍♀️

[@kaydub9060]

Merry Christmas ... If that is something you partake in🎄⛄ A carpenter who can interpretive dance ... talent all around 😉💃 I love that you're going to present vanlife, warts (or poop) and all ... keeping it real ... more of us will relate 🙂

[@SarahvanCaravan]

@@kaydub9060 hehe Merry Christmas to you too!! Thanks! I am all talent, no blessings it seems lol. I was nervous about posting the ugly side of things but it is the reality of why so many folks are living in vehicles these days. I would feel strange if I were pretending I was living in my van for fun lol (although some parts about van life actually are fun). Hope to see you around!! This is TWICE now!!! 😁🥳🤗

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Also, congrats on making the top 25 Subs!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@dmiroy]

Wow very creative! Love the dust bum zooms! Can't wait to see what you build. Good luck and Merry Christmas. Have a great 2025! 🎉🥳

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Haha thank you, Devolicious! I was wondering if we were going to talk about that 😅😅😅 sometimes I feel like Im the only one giggling at my own videos. Glad you liked it

[@toastedcheeze2357]

Keep dancing! Keep smiling!

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Lol thank you, Toasted Cheeze! Your name is funny 😂 I am sorry to announce there will probably be more dancing in future videos. I like the drama 😅

[@tjandthebears5523]

@@SarahvanCaravan You absolutely have your OWN Sensational KZbin Identity, I can feel it already....and I see a TON of youtubes!

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Oh wow! Its nice to have someone who knows trailer pains lol. Let me know when your video comes out! I would like to see a tour 😁

[@tjandthebears5523]

@@SarahvanCaravan I will, and I'm more inspired now THANK YOU!

[@esands7821]

6 minutes in and I've decided that you're my new bestie! Hi friend! No fancy stuff. Interpretative dance. No shame. Plugging along. What. Is. Not. Too. Love? I'm 54 yo and slowly transitioning to a minimalist life to get to minivan life. You're an inspiration!

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Hahaha I love your energy!! I am glad you enjoyed my shamelessness although I do admit, I did blush a little when I decided to post that interpretive dance scene 😅😅😅 but hey, Why not have some fun? I hope this van-build helps you while you are making your transition. All these comments really have me thinking about how I might be able to help people that are in the same situation as me - maybe we can make things look a little less doom and gloom while we strive to survive 🥳🥳🥳

[@ncdservices]

To be honest, I see something in you that reminds me of myself! life will get better if we keep hope, at least we don't have a choice hahaha!! I can't wait to see the first part of your build. Much love ❤

[@SarahvanCaravan]

@@ncdservices you my #1, stoic Rad!!! 🤗🤗🤗 sometimes all we have is hope but sometimes hope is a greater gift than worldly possessions. It is great to see you again in the comments 👋 I also can’t wait to share the build. I have decided to do something unique with this one but its a secret 🤐

[@ncdservices]

@SarahvanCaravan it's even exciting to mention that it's a secret and unique, please do it. Forgive my English, I'm not a native speaker !! haha

[@beebong1]

The fact that you are being honest is refreshing. The interpretive dance had me rolling (especially Hammer Time!)😉 Looking forward to the build.

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Hahahaha I forgot about the hammer time!! Just like my boss I guess 😅😅😅 thanks for the chuckle. I am glad people appreciate the honesty because it’s really embarrassing to admit hardship sometimes, but if we hide our struggles, I think it makes it much more difficult to overcome them.

[@goldpanvanman]

Love the video..! 😊

Oh cool!! I lived in my van in Toronto a couple years back but now I am in London. Canadian van life is a totally different beast. The cold is scary and debilitating. Hope you are ok!

[@Oneverythangilove]

Nice to come across your video I also live in a mini van Chrysler pacific. And right now it’s a no build setup. I have been doing van life for 3 years now. And I have been thinking about getting a bigger van I can stand up in or have my van built out on a more permanent basis. Just not sure I’m always looking for mini van videos on KZbin. So I’m looking forward to seeing what you come up with. So I kinda know a lot about van life living but the only thing I don’t get to travel because I have a full time job. So I have to stay in the city I live in Phoenix Arizona and live year round in the van. And I love it if I do decide to build out the van I would have to hire someone to do it. I can barely hammer in a nail without hitting my fingers.😅 looking forward to seeing more of your videos

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Wow, I’m so glad you shared your story with me! I am a professional carpenter and a professional finisher. I realize I am blessed in this sense when it comes to Van life. I know that living in a vehicle is not ideal. it is my hope that for those of us who find it necessary to live in a vehicle, I can teach us how to do so with some sense of permeability, sustainability and stability. I hope that this Van build weather for a minivan or a high roof, will help you make decisions in your future build. I will do my best to explain my methods.

[@a.lh.886]

I just love how positive you are and every video brings a smile to my face. You are so generous and kind, the universe will bring it back to you!

[@SarahvanCaravan]

@@a.lh.886 thank you, A.L H!! I am stupidly positive lol 😅 I am so happy I can make folks smile with my content. That makes it worth while. I hope it helps someone else find hope like I always seem to do 😁😁😁

[@vinnyOdea878]

I'm in a situation where living in an apartment/flat in the 🇬🇧 uk has got to expensive, paying all the bills to sit there wat hing youtube, I can do that in a tent! Move on to a van around September next year,so it's tent life,think yourself lucky you have a vehicle

[@SarahvanCaravan]

I am so sorry to hear about your situation. Unfortunately, it is the lot of many in these trying times. I hope I can be an inspiration for those who are struggling and eventually be able to help people myself. I know what it’s like to have no help and no sympathy. The world is a hard place . I hope you can find a way to set up your tent in a way that brings some level of comfort to your life. I pray you find a way to make this work.

[@AugustusOmega]

Truly, a vehicle is safety, away from the elements, a place for privacy and convenience. It should be a clear priority for you to get out of that tent and into any sort of a car providing you have your license and even if I didn't I would still take my chances in a car. A tent in England is ill advised its so cold there in winter.

[@gordonhenderson1965]

You're clearly talented enough to either make living in a van very profitable... or figure out another way to have a nice life! I'm not worried about you at all but I'll subscribe to ya cause you're cool weird.

[@SarahvanCaravan]

Oh Gordon! Me likey. Thanks for the encouragement! I seem to be all talent and no blessings lol. It will be interesting to see what talent can do under unblessed circumstances. I like to think I could make anything liveable 💪💪💪
