First Night Sleeping In Our Campervan | USA Vanlife Begins!

"Leaves of 3 let it be. Leaves of 5 let it thrive" A rhyme to remember... Great start to a new week. Thank you for sharing your adventures. 🤟🤗

Oh my gosh!! My jaw dropped when I heard the sun watchers clap. I’ve never seen that happen! 🥰🥰🥰

[@jeffstation70]

They clap at the sunset in Oia, Santorini. Must've caught on

[@zareththealchemist8982]

I've been to a few places where the sunset gets an ovation. I've entertained the idea that when I move back to Atlantic City that I start a trend where people applaud the sun rising. Its a way of expressing gratitude for having another day of life. 🙏

Nor I with many years of Michigan camping. It’s delightful.

[@lynandjay]

Table tip: check thrift stores (or Walmart/Target/Big Lots etc) for what we call "tv trays" - they're just small folding tables meant for eating dinner while watching TV in the living room. We have two in our van instead of any sort of formal fitted table, and they're endlessly useful for all kinds of things, including outside on the campsite. We're so excited to watch your adventure unfold!

The stereotype at sunset absolutely had me laughing. As an American, I never tire of seeing a chipmunk. They seem much more rare than a squirrel and I'm always enchanted when one crosses my path in my local park. I'm so inspired by your camper van journey. I hope I can do it one day myself.

[@JoeVloggsYT]

That sunset clap on command was hilarious! People in America really do clap a lot more than us Brits! Another great video guys! I'm so happy that you've settled into your new camper!

Love your enthusiastic embracing your new adventures of exploring America! I really do thoroughly empathize with you because I feel just the same when I’m visiting England! It is always and every time an amazing experience when you set out to explore another country that you’ve read about a dreamed about traveling to, and then when you get there it exceeds all expectations! I enthusiastically suggest you visit the Pacific Northwest in Washington State, especially since you both love wildlife and the outdoors so much. I believe you will truly be enraptured with the wonderful wild beauties of the Cascade Mountains, the Olympic Mountains, Puget Sound, the beaches along the Pacific Coast, Olympic Peninsula and Rainforest, and the many spectacular views and trails and campgrounds of all of these places. You will fall in love with Washington, just as I fell in love with the Lake District and the Cotswolds and Wales and the British people. 🇺🇸❤️🇬🇧.

Well done, you all deserve the very best! BTW - I also grinned from ear to ear that Alex is finally starting to appreciate a few American food/cultural experiences. I can tell you are warming up to us boisterous Americans, Alex!! Just steer clear of mcD’s!

Some of the newbies like me came for the Van fire because of the algorithm but stayed because you guys are absolutely adorable, charming and fun! Blessings from Ontario, Canada. P.S - Don't forget to travel here some day! SO much wildlife and beauty 🇨🇦 Ontario has 200,000 lakes and so much forest. You'd love it.

[@moonbug2266]

The best and most relaxing part of camping (IMO) is a sitting outside watching the sun come up while sipping a hot cup of coffee. People aren't up yet, and if you sit still you can see so many birds and other animals. So calming.

[@michellecaselton4647]

It's so lovely to see Michigan from your point of view. I can't wait to see what other areas you visit (I assume Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore made your cut...). As a Michigander, I do wish to caution you: the great lakes are mighty and beautiful and not at all like regular lakes. They can have dangerously strong currents and riptides so please enjoy with caution and pay attention to any water warnings as you enjoy all the beautiful sites here. 💜

[@dananorris6242]

Good advice! Lake Michigan has wicked riptide. Warnings are not to be ignored!

After Frank, I’m so glad to see you both so happy in the U.S. again. And Phoenix is a good name. Love that Alex is so into seeing squirrels and chipmunks. And so happy to see Emma in love with the new van. Looking forward to seeing more of your U.S. travels. Best of luck for the next couple of months.

[@melissamoeller9608]

Phoenix seems like a wonderful new addition to the Bean adventure family. I love how cozy and bright she is. Please come to Western Washington during your travels.

Dont Forget in Startrek Next Generation Phoenix was also the name of a Starship that The Enterprise had to hunt down after its Captain went mad and began Killing Cardassians that episode seemed scary imagine hunting down somebody u knew as Friends but somehow they go insane

[@monicabrown3789]

We also live on the Gulf coast of Mississippi and are Boondocker Welcome hosts, so you are welcome here anytime. We have a nice lake across the street from our home and have 2 kayaks and a paddle board you are welcome to use. As far as things you should get for your new to you camper van, you should get a surge protector. Before plugging into the power pedestal make sure the breaker is off, plug the surge protector in then turn on the breaker. Let it perform it’s test on the pedestal. If everything checks ok , turn the breaker back off then plug your cord into the surge protector then turn the breaker back on. You are now safe to use the power. It will protect your rig from many issues that could damage your electronic in your rig. They are not cheap, but neither is have to repair your rigs electrical system. You should also get a water pressure regulator (the one with the gauge is better) to protect your water lines from over pressure damaging your water lines. Also an in-line water filter for when you hook up to campground water faucets. You should look into joining Harvest Host/Boondockers Welcome so you have other choices of places to stay for free or very cheaply. Good luck and safe travels with Phoenix. We are Rambling Rovers Base on Boondockers Welcome

Get a thick door mat with to drop outside the door to scrub off your shoes 👞 👟 when in dirty/sandy areas to keep down the cleaning and mess in the van! They also make a narrow block style boot scrubber for about $20 that not only cleans off the bottoms and in the treads but also the sides as well and would be easy to store in the doorway step when traveling!

[@marthagaluszka8888]

Get a sticky lint pickup roller for crumbs in the bed. To prevent bringing sand inside is a small floor mat at your door and a shaker container of baby powder. Simply sprinkle it on your bare feet and legs and the sand will brush right off, then you'll be comfortable. Love that you're traversing the USA. There is SO much to see!

[@jkneumann]

I swear, even before you said it, i knew people would either "woo-hoo" or clap the sunset. I, as a Texan-American would most definitely have been the sterotype--and gladly so. This beginning to your adventure is simply a joy to watch!! God bless your journey

Just so happy for you that you are starting your US camper van journey - finally! Besides black squirrels, there are white squirrels in the US but rare. Certain cities and towns are known for their large population of white squirrels, including Brevard, North Carolina; Marionville, Missouri; Olney, Illinois; Kenton, Tennessee; and Exeter, Ontario. I'd never seen them myself until I went to Marionville, MO.

[@JJMarkin]

And, for those who have never seen or heard of white squirrels -- just to be clear: these are *not* albinos. They are squirrels like any other, except with white hair. And they are lovely. (We very occasionally used to see them in Hendersonville, North Carolina, but they're growing more rare, alas.)

[@annescholl420]

Congratulations on your 250k subscribers. The Phoenix is great. Also one of my favorite states are Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona. The black squirrels 🐿 are all over the US. As a French expat I can conquer that Americans are a lot more joyful than my Countrymen. My hubby is a lot jollier than my cousins and uncles. My dad was the exception. He was the life of the party. Enjoy your camper van 🚐. Come to South Florida on one of your trips and we will show you around. 🤗☺️🙏

[@freyadrazan3257]

Adding on to this: Please get a berkey or zero water filter for drinking water. Not all water is the same in the US and much of it is less than desirable for drinking.

[@tedeast4789]

Great start to many more exciting "Travel Beans" adventures. It will interesting to find out which states you guys like the most. Since being retired for just over a year, we have done more traveling abroad in search of our roots and haven't given the US much thought for travel. We just recently purchased a 30 foot travel trailer so we can start exploring in our own back yard. Living in the Pacific NW we are surrounded by many many areas to camp and explore, but are looking forward to expanding our adventures. Maybe we'll run into each other during our travels. Looking forward to next weeks episode. Safe and Happy travels.

A recommendation, get a surge protector to put between your power cord and the electric supply. Some of the sites will have "dirty" power that can damage the systems in your van. And if you have a black water tank, read up on black water tank management. Let it get mostly full before dumping and then add some water back in after it's dumped and flushed. The sloshing while driving will help keep from getting Gunk stuck to the bottom of your tank.

It is very nice that someone reached out to help you buy a camper van. I hope to find one soon myself. I was born in michigan, and have been to 30 states currently. I have also lived in 4 of them, and never seen; or heard of people cheering when the sun finished setting behind the horizon. I would expect it when children are involved to keep them entertained, and excited so they won't get grumpy or cry. Anything to keep a kid happy, and away from being bored, because they will scream, and cry otherwise since kids can't just live in the moment, and be a human without a phone should be a stereo type. Oh, and the black squirrels: squirrel color 3.0 apparently. Good find! lol
