[@fredericklasch630]

Everyone should do what you both do, once in his life. You both look happy

[@maximusstarblazer]

Got to be some of the nicest people ever. And to show off their home so happily! Thanks for sharing!

[@UNDNYABLE2U2002]

This I can, was one of your best Interviews yet. Great quality!!

[@KombiLife]

glad you enjoyed it Ashley

[@WanderingIdiots]

What amazing people! I love that they picked up people along the way, actually I love everything they're doing. Nice video, nice people. Nice!

[@davidtrueslayor7474]

God bless these 2 , the human spirit so desperately fragile but so amazingly resilient, love does conquer all !

[@ExploringAlternatives]

Great video! Can't believe you were able to restore the van and make it look even better than before the fire! I feel your pain about the tiny low roof van but it also has many advantages :) Looking forward to the next video!

[@johncnorris]

Ancient technology - it's sort of a Yurt on wheels!

[@KombiLife]

Thanks guys! We're glad we decided to fix it after the fire. Well worth the hard work :)

[@Slaytanik.]

I want to win it!

[@adventureswithgnomie6553]

VW Bus = Character Building. Great tour and what a neat tiny home.

[@TrailRecon]

Freedom life! What an awesome location!

[@kelvinyany]

I am loving your new filming technique: no talking, but let your interviewees talk.

[@kearress7350]

Ben has a few years experience ;) Check out his channel Kombi Life, it's awesome!

[@adventureicecream]

I've been following Kombi Life for years. I'm so glad you guys got to meet each other.

[@KombiLife]

So were we! Very happy we finally met up.

[@multidimensionaltraveler806]

That's so cool. A van life home that can travel in the ocean. Driving from Brazil to Alaska must have been fun and a one of a kind experience

[@euaereginaldo]

Só eu que sou do Brasil aqui? (I was the only one that i am from Brazil here?) I loved the idea of transforming an Kombi in a Motorhome, simply brilliant.

[@kahineg]

Two of my favorite channels getting together. This was an absolutely wonderful video!!!!! Love all of you !!!

[@KombiLife]

thanks Kathleen

[@wcbibb]

My girlfriend and I drove down to Cabo San Lucos in Mexico on the new road in 1976 in my 1971 Adventurer van with a sunroof. We used to drive the van to trailheads, park, and then go backpacking in the Sierras.

[@TravelswithYoly]

I traveled in a 1965 VW factory camper (no pop-up) for over a year back in 1970/71. It was just me and my dog Haiku so there was lots of room :-) I routinely picked up hitchhikers as well which almost got me into real trouble crossing the US/Canada border one time ! Heading over to subscribe from here :-)

[@KombiLife]

It's great to have you join us :)

[@TheTravelingTogetherJournal]

omg, I love Alaska the dog in a jacket. We have 300watts of panels and we are still not 100% off grid if it's cloudy for more then one day. Love Kombi Life, tell that guy to make more of his original style of movies!

[@fredjust6194]

I’ve always loved VW buses and can I just how funny it is that this vid was posted on my birthday two years ago?!! Well tomorrow is my birthday and the two year anniversary of this vid!

[@michelleg.8190]

4 years wow ! You guys are living my dream ....the real deal too in that adorable van ! Best of luck and I cant wait to see ur next video!

[@asgram1980]

Wow what a true duo of adventurers! Thx Chris for these video exploring other types of the RV life.

[@JenShea]

So glad you could fix it. I found their channel some time ago. Love these Adventureres :)

[@vanseventy]

Main issues on motors... adjust the valves every other oil change. And put lock washers on everything if you can. Adding an oil cooler will help tremendously. In cold weather use 10w30. Hot weather. Straight 40 weight. Castrol. I live in Florida and have owned Vdubs for years. Make sure your valve covers and distributed gaskets stay soft or change them. Same with oil screen. Do not overtighten anything . Hope that helps. Run sea foam through gas every now and then to keep ethanol from gumming up carb. Cheers guys and stay safe!!!

[@GOTTshua]

People totally SMILE whenever they see a VW bus. I call it the contact-high effect. Such a joy to drive one. Share the love.

[@moomman89]

That was cool. Kombi Life. I have not looked this up yet.Thanks Chris. The man and his drone........and camera .

[@labdad8124]

Awesome Chris, been following both of you for a few years, legendary meet up.

[@louisfougere6786]

Love this series. It gives a ton of insight on living in a van. I've been thinking about doing the same along the East Coast of the US. these videos are awesome cuz they tell you what your signing up for

[@juliab9261]

The "shuffle" move...was pure joy!

[@nirmalherath2168]

Amazing work guys! It's lovely to see how much you two enjoy this together :) Cheers!

[@daddyjohn2007]

you have the right idea , don't stop living the dream .....

[@NoProGoPronto]

OMG you met Ben? That is so awesome! I love that guy and his channel. His adventures are of the charts. Cool meet up 🤗

[@VintageWanderer]

Super cool. I just picked up a bus that traveled from Argentina to Alaska! Now it’s in North Carolina 😊. It’s. 1984 and similar build

[@393Dan]

I actually began watching them through this video. I never do that, but their picking up hitchhikers project got me curious.

[@ariannal.o921]

I've been following Kombi Life for a long time and I have to say, it's so nice to know from you guys from another perspective! This is an awesome video, thanks for sharing! Happy travels :)

[@saadandalib5812]

they are still so happy , stay blessed rock stars.

[@timgirolamo6682]

They look like a cooool couple. Thanks for sharing chris and G

[@kathrynfoster1585]

I found your channel last night and watched all from chili to present and in love with your show.

[@oscarkarais175]

3:41 thats the south klondike highway, which goes all the way to Skagway. Which is near the Yukon Territory, in which I live.

[@ConnollyCove]

Great adventure..I hope you enjoyed it. :)

[@BatzBenzerFPV]

you guys are really so lovely. greetings from switzerland

[@davidtosh7200]

It is a mixture of the first generation (1950-1967) and second generation (1968-1979), but it is mostly the second generation, except for the side window that are square and a swing out type side doors, as well as pre 1965 wrap around quarter windows.

[@RhettTheFable]

I live in Seward, Alaska! I am so bummed I didn't get to see your awesome bus!

[@thumperpaul]

Wow. Makes me appreciate our 25 foot Grand Design Imagine 2500RL. Not to mention our townhouse....

[@spencermoon1371]

WHAT A WONDERFULL COUPLE WELL DONE!

[@0HARE]

It’s so cool that you bumped into Ben and Leah in Alaska. I’ve been following their channel for years. All the cross pollination of channels on KZbin is amazing. One of my favorite channels was Happily Homeless. Do you know what ever happened to him? He, and his channel, have completely disappeared from the internet. All The Best

[@shelleytomlinson3947]

What awesome people, thanks for sharing. Inspiring for sure, if you two can do this anyone can do anything, including me, thanks guys. :)

[@leilal8053]

Wow. UR trusting souls 2 pick up hitchhikers and actually sleep with them. I hope your kindness does not bring you misfortune. Happy Travels.

[@dibyendudas01]

Super Cool Folks... All the best for your future adventures

[@adventureicecream]

One criticism, not nearly enough video of Alaska the dog. She's a legend!

[@KombiLife]

She is a great travel companion. You can follow her adventures on Facebook or Instagram if you're not already @k9adventuretime 🐾

[@johnbeckman8916]

Man! I can't imagine what time of day that was shat at. The sun is so low that their shadows cast on the van are very close to life size!

[@Thewalkingtravel]

I like your adventures very very much. We are prepairing our Europe vantrip next year. Your videos inspire us... we want start right now!! congrtulations and regards!!

[@musicismydrug765]

Cool video! I want drive around the world when I'm older.

[@brandonsmisek]

Those are some great ideas, thanks, cool stickers to, GoPro and Trump. good job.

[@ClassALiving]

What an awesome setup, and beautiful scenery! This was a great video

[@AugustoLugo1983]

Kombi Life send me to your channel, Can't wait to be addicted to your travel advice :)

[@LeaTex]

Hi. The big question is... how do you get money to live? I would like to do the same like you, but the economic part is complicated I supose. Greetings from Argentina!

[@kiernanhuggins4451]

From what I have seen from their channel they rely entirely on the support from their Patreon users. They offer additional videos and sneak peeks through Patreon to those who support them as an incentive and reward. They even randomly selected one of their donators to gift their kombi bus to them at the end of their journey. Check out their channel on youtube called Kombi Life, extremely entertaining and inspiring content for those who love to travel and want to live in the moment. Now let's all wait for Hasta Australia! Can't wait!!

[@healththenopulence5106]

Living in a van and cooking food on a gas canister is a lot less expensive than living in a flat in a big city

[@georgeguiney3454]

I think they spend like 10 dollars a day, so saving up a couple of thousand JUST for food, drink, petrol, etc would go a long way

[@iamviviii]

sometimes people teach online and do online stuff idk if thats what they do tho

[@brianbrown6342]

Kool.. I watch both of you guy's channels, I want to start traveling the world

[@bobjones1620]

WOW! Very Cool! I admire all you guys! Really! Way to live a life!

[@5starmaniiiVice]

So happy the background isn't click bait

[@fouleddiver]

Awesome! What a wonderful journey.

[@oriongiurfa6722]

Chris, it is from Chile to Alaska. Never been in Brazil or the East part of south America. Cheers.

[@camfam52002]

My wife and I traveled Australia in VW Camper before we married. Nostalgia aside I'd never own one again, I worked on that damn thing every day.

[@godfromheaven2525]

I logged 8 round trips from Monterey California to Chihuahua Mexico in a 71.VWbus

[@woudjee2]

This is the first video I watch, amazing and inspiring! :)

[@MsGeminorum]

lol on the little shuffle and the bed curl.

[@Deadthinker32]

i laughed at this video . enjoyed watching you guys .. looks like your having a great time . jealous

[@kennethrosbury2819]

sounds like a lot of fun it would be nice if your RV was just a little bigger for you not much bigger I have a 73 Shasta and it's small but it would be perfect for you got a new motor in it too so that's a plus and a new Trans Andrew tires but I have some leaks to fix I enjoyed watching your program keep up the good work

[@GiridharaKrishna]

Awesome... I'd love to meet you guys when you come to India.

[@22tcm34]

You guys are to nices Just be careful when you pick strangers people's God bless you both of you

[@PhilipLengden]

Awesome video! Just about to by a 1966 Clark Cortez that needs a little love. Can't wait to get the project going and hit some of those remote locations (next year). I'll have to dig through your archives to see how you manages some of your mods. Good luck with the giveaway!!!

[@creekjonsun]

AWESOME ! Love Your Kombi :)

[@videomagictv6403]

Now there is a couple that I have to say are Awesome with a capital "A", loved the video folks and hope you don't mind if I show case this on my own site.

[@Game-Preacher]

Good on both of you for finding adventure.

[@justinlinnane8043]

What great video and a great bus ! Thanks Chris

[@Kanoee64]

If You go threw Percell Oklahoma they used to (hope they still do) have a good VW junk yard.

[@elstyr]

That "opposite direction" fuel gauge stealths the van from getting gas stolen. Interesting idea :).

[@SVELFARO]

Glad you met up with ben, check out his chanel Combi Life

[@NovellaTravel]

I love it :) Awesome way of living!

[@Camp_Runamuck]

Great video .. Glad Ben is enjoying Alaska finally

[@bobshaw4063]

WOW all the way from Brazil to Alaska inspite of a fire .

[@bobshaw4063]

Wonder if they've ever heard of a solar oven ?

[@naud3717]

[@ChrisMcEvoy]

Awesome I watch his videos also :)

[@Russellbeta]

wooo, i'd love to tag along for a bit when you make it to europe. i've been playing with the idea of doing belgium to india and around there for a while.

[@mirandadonovan1272]

If you're passing back through Washington I have some brand new solar panels I'll trade you for advice on how to fix up my Combi.

[@TranscendExistence1111]

So cool you guys were able to meet up! I've been a patron on patreon for Bens' adventure for a bit over a year now. What a great journey he has been on! Great video Chris...hope you're doing well!

[@KombiLife]

Yeah Wess - glad you got to see the vid!

[@TranscendExistence1111]

Heck yeah Ben.....good times always!

[@billtimmick112]

How about Africa? No one has done Africa. More remote, more diverse and seemingly much more interesting than Europe which has been previewed Ad Nauseam. That is my vote. Other than that cannot wait for new adventures. I hope you out Africa at top of the list.

[@mrmagoo9901]

Cool folks...

[@VincentGerbouin]

Just awesome ! Thank you for inspiration ! :)

[@jackwalsh1468]

I would like to purchase the "Kombi Van" a serious inquiry, too. Cheers, Mate.

[@TheMranonymous2012]

definitely subbed, this is my life goal😄 it's so awesome

[@WanderingBeast]

love those three, Alaska didnt get much screen time ;)
