Tour of Nomad Living in a Minivan | No-Build Van Life

[@rndmparker561]

This young man is so well rounded, it's unbelievable. Humble and friendly. I hope I get to see how he impacts this world.

[@susieq2cute]

I agree. He seems so sweet. I hope he does well in life. And, he is so talented.

I met Jayden at my first ever Caravan last fall in Puhrump. We camped close, broke bread together, he shared his cooking with me and I was eavesdropping in his music , he used headphones when on keyboards and had I known he is that talented I would have requested he nor and share it with me. I know right off he is intelligent, compassionate, has a great ...Compass . I doubt he remembers me but I gifted him a luci lite ( with prayers and hopes the Universe offers him an abundance of choices and opportunities...I think of him often and how his Journey is progressing. I plan on at least see some of Sedona town itself and will listen for his magic... It's pleases me much to see how well Payden is doing! I've learned that Solitude allows my skin to fit right. I've become comfortable with myself. I am my best company...and Friend. That's huge for this guy. I wasted so much time chasing after Me, Mine, More, Quicker. The four corners of the Rat Race. I wish Payden a exciting Journey and it be filled with all his needs and desires...such a fine Individual.

[@candacelemming858]

Such raw talent. His fingers just float across those keys in such a seemingly effortless manner. 🎹🎼🎶🎵🥂

[@ReBK1]

Jaden is fantastic and admirable. Bob you are a great interviewer.

[@katherinemcilwain8025]

Jaden is incredible and touched on an issue dear to my heart. Namely, there is a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in overcoming the challenges of a nomadic life, particularly in a tiny space. Bravo young man, and thank you, Bob, for this video.

[@susieq2cute]

I wish Jayden had a KZbin channel. I would love to follow his journey. He seems so sweet and humble. He’s somebody you’d love to hang with and listen to his music. Best of luck, sweet Jayden.

[@simonbattle0001]

Hello Bob, this young person could have been just another cog in someones machine, but instead he struck out on his own and has done well despite the obstetrical put in the path of all Nomads. I'm happy for him and grateful to you Bob for being a linchpin for everyone living this life to count on. I think it was a very good thing whatever it was that put you on the path you are on. Best wishes to you and yours.

[@livingitup9647]

"...despite the obstetrical put in the path of all Nomads." 🧐 Ummm, I think you meant to type "...obstacles put in the path..." 😉

[@egrace407]

What a sweet young man. He won’t regret the experiences he’s creating.

[@kimharpe6074]

I would never get bored camping next to him just to hear him play..Nice young man ❤ And he has the same name as one of my grandsons ❤

[@suedefringe]

Thanks for the mini show Jayden.🥰 So much talent. I hope you get where you are trying to go!

[@uol1051]

I'm in tears. That piano. What a fine man.

[@gailkellum832]

What a pleasant surprise to find this jewel in the desert. Jaden is a remarkable young man who seem to be on the path to a simple but fulfilling life. It was a real treat to hear him play his piano. Great interview Bob!

[@bvcmargie5887]

Ty Bob for bringing Jayden into our lives. My heart is fuller having learned of him. Its inspiring to know there are young men like him out in our world making a difference. His attitude his manner his belief system that he has shared with us is tremendously uninspiring. His music and grace in sharing is a gift to others. Jayden may you experience God's best every day in your life. And you too Bob as well ‼️

[@kendclife7913]

What I love about Bob's interviews is that the interviews are about the people, their lives, motivations, why they are nomadic. They NOT about monotonous: "my under is in this drawer, my socks are in this plastic cabinet ..." But rather, little slices of life. Thank you.

[@billyfordsr6235]

😆indefinitely agreed:

[@marilynrenaud1892]

He seems like a great guy and an outstanding musician. 👍😁

[@stanwinston3387]

This one means something. I'll unpack this for awhile. To have so little, and so much ability... Love the outdoor gym. Inspiring

[@thebestisyettocome4114]

Bob Wells, it's been almost 4 years from my last comment. I've been watching and so very proud of you. You are truly amazing gentlemen. This is Mr. Hahn, Naples Florida USA 🇺🇸. Happy new year 2022.

[@woodsandcreek7589]

I have really enjoyed this interview/ tour. The melodica is the same instrument that the Reggae Musician Augustas Pablo made famous. Thank you Jayden and Bob!

[@SuperJimid]

What a good old soul inside of a young fella he gives me faith that when I get the road with my drums Amir other musicians like him it's going to be great when I finally get my van

[@carolhieter3916]

What a talented young man! Best wishes to you, Jayden.

[@deniselynn]

Wow loved his passion and integrity.

[@thinknicethoughts88]

Oh wow Jaden I hope you come to Farmington New Mexico. You can stay on my land as you're passing through and I will provide you with food on nights I cook :-) what a pleasant and happy young man you are

[@TS-rd7oy]

Good for him!!! Travel, travel, travel when you are young. That's what I did, despite so many, most all, people telling me to settle down and have babies. I am so glad I did. Now I am 61. I still love to travel, but obviously don't have the same stamina as a young person. Best of everything to this young person.

[@sunshinedayz2172]

Love the simplicity of this lifestyle..

[@felixcat9318]

To increase the outside living area, consider using inexpensive tarps to make an add-a-room type tent. These usually start with an awning with two side walls and a front, all made from fabric like the awning itself. Google will have gazillions of images of these, and there's probably videos and blogs on how to make them cheaply using tarps. That will allow the full music and cooking set up outside of the van, to still be usable and dry in torrential rain. One aspect about spending time on one's own is that it allows you to get to learn more about yourself. Once comfortable and at ease in oneself, spending time alone ceases to be something associated with loneliness! Its simply a nice time in one's own company! To have taken charge of his life and to live as he pleases is giving him a really nice life, and what could be nicer than that. This very together man will inspire others to consider the versatility and reliability of a (japanese) mini van and to just travel as they choose without wasting money fitting their van out.

[@annnaegele1846]

I could listen to that song forever!! Beautiful talent!!!💞💞💞

[@OldMan1962]

Very talented young man.. Great job Bob!

[@happyglamper7412]

He seems like a truly authentic person enjoying life and his human experience. I hope he makes it to S. America! Good luck!!

[@oldermanvanner4026]

You shouldn't judge a person from how they may look. Amazingly talented and gifted person, well rounded and focused. Thanks for sharing your life and thanks for sharing hos video.

[@thomasfeldman3613]

Great video, love the philosophy of this guy 🇬🇧

Very talented and grounded, adventurous young man..good luck with your endeavors!

[@AnaFernandez-bu6bo]

What a beautiful humble soul this young man is. God bless him and protect him. He's amazing. 💖💖

[@judygipson3517]

One of the best interviews yet. What a fantastic young man.

[@nmr6988]

As a retired professional classical musician, performer and teacher, I loved this young man's talent! What beautiful music!

[@angelaratzay9034]

What a wonderful talented young man so clever, musical ,beautiful and an athlete. I wish you good health and much joy in your life.

[@stephanywilkes3598]

Jaden, you are so smart for prioritizing travel. No one tells you that you really do start to feel your age at about 40. If I had my 20s and 30s to do over, I would not prioritize working and would do exactly what you are while you have potentially fewer health or mobility issues to consider. You are a brilliant inspiration with a creative rig. Enjoy the world out there!

[@jayburke1601]

omg his piano skills are absolutely amazing❤ what a wonderful humble talented free thinker

[@betsy5749]

What a creative guy. Great interview, Bob, as usual.

[@kathleendonoghue6435]

Oh my, beautiful music and fine young man. Thank you for the interview.

[@rebelgirl7289]

What an interesting young man. A diamond in the rough. I'm sure he blesses everyone he meets with just being himself and with his many talents. I wish many wonderful adventures.

[@westcoastlocal1]

Someone should hire this innovative guy to help create new features on upcoming converted vans & campers. Would love to see more youtube videos diy from him. Thank You Bob for introducing us to him & his travel style etc.

[@karimarie5732]

[@marshabrown8337]

There is hope for the world with people like these in it. All the best to you all. Take care.

[@luannesmith5350]

What a amazing young man who is very wise beyond his years. He’s a wonderful musician as well! I just love these videos meeting so many interesting and fun people. A fully different outlook on life with your videos than the gloom and doom bad news that’s thrown at us so much with the media.

[@LifeBetweenTheDash]

Drifted off and woke up to his playing. Beautiful. Now will watch the tour again. Love his wall divider. Can put so much stuff in there.

[@katrinarefugee]

Nice! I've thought for a while that a Honda Odyssey would be a really good vehicle for a van lifer because of the reliability. Wow incredible piano skills. I want a Flamenko guitar!!

[@TravelingHat]

Really cool rig and an excellent musician! Inspiring

[@ABCpdc]

A true troubadour. What fun he is.

Great video of a very cool and talented young man. Humble, chill, mature, and self reliant. I enjoyed this video very much. I can't believe he found that solar panel on the side of the road? I wonder if it fell off someone's rig? 🤔
