⭐ About Travel Beans:
Welcome to the official Travel Beans KZbin channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

Yes Alex/Alan, you have a white tailed eagle and looks like it's still not out of it's immature stage. You tell em Emma, why do you have to ask, it's a person driving and it doesn't matter if it's male or female. Great video, you need to see that "van life" has it's ups and downs as well as challenges. You two seem to have it all sorted out and doing a great job as individuals and as a couple. Your videos are awesome and I always look forward to them. And yes, I think I would do just fine living in a van that small, but I'm not a couple so I can't say for sure if I would do well sharing that size of a space. Take care you two!

Hiiii! Love your videos! (And the couple from MO you’ve teamed up with!) About 15 years ago I trucked around in a GMC VAN, aka ‘Vannie White’ as my boys called her, after they had left home. I loved it! The van was stolen once I moved to Little Rock to work, broke my heart, and now that EVERYBODY is reminded me what I’m missing!!!! I’m Van shopping again! Window shopping for now! -/-side note, I loved all the features in Frank, the Ford, and HATED IT FOR YOU GUYS when he met his untimely death. (So happy yall were safe, and that it happened pre Noah.). Also should add that your hubby reminds me of one of my youngest friends he played ball with. Baseball team. His mom and dad were from England and Scotland. I loved the accent. I’m rambling. Thank you so much for all your videos. Enjoy this time with your babes! B Barham

I built out a 2007 GMC Savana 3500 Extended (US). I learned, by building it out, that all vans are small vans. My wife and I don't live in the van full-time, but we are still crowded in it. I will be working on trying to gain more floor space in the coming months. I thought we had loads of space under the bed, but that quickly filled up with folding ebikes and water (we do not run out of water nearly as quickly as you do, so that's the good news). I will often step outside the van while she is dressing and vice versa. I would love to travel more with her, but I do feel I need to rescue some space.

To answer your question, at our later stage in retired life we could not live in a small van, the lavatorial facilities or lack of plus having to use public loos and showers would put us off! You are very brave being in a small space and having to maintain a close relationship and entertaining us at the same time. Thank and kind regards from a nearly sunny West Sussex by the sea Crawford

I love my husband but. 24/7 in close proximity er naa! Drive me crazy. But I’m 62 see how you guys feel in a ‘few’ years?!! 😅 Well done Al your editing is actually really great!!! You two as a couple do a super job and I’m so glad I found you!! I enjoy your vlogs sooooooo much. I’m disabled and stuck in bed/house 90% of the time and watching content on KZbin like yours is my thing! Thanks guys! Coming back to the question of would you do it, I think if I’d met my husband 40 years ago then I would have loved to travel in a van (with shower and proper loo!) He did it before we met and his Land Rover he did up, had shipped to South Africa blew up like your van did. He lost all his documents, cash the lot! But also travelled all over the world before settling down. Good to do when you’re younger. 🍦🍦🥰🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️

It never once crossed my mind even once why Emma does all the driving. Maybe because I do all the driving in my marriage too. We've been married almost 30 years and learned fairly early on in our marriage that I love driving way more than he does and he's way better at navigating than I am. Plus I am a horrible passenger and need to close my eyes in order to keep from pissing off whoever is driving with my anxiety-ridden "backseat driving" tips (it's hard to navigate and sight-see with closed eyes, LOL!).

Yes we bought a small caravan (3,5m long x 1,8m wide, similar to what you have in your van as living space) and enjoy our live many weeks each year on various campsites in europe. A full van life with no homebase would probably not work out well. Not becase of the narrow space or something, but because of the job requirements.

Brilliant vlog. You've become tremendous film-makers. Much as I'm an admirer of the v-dub for its compactness and the shrewdness of your conversion (Emma!), I've realised that it would be too small for me to live in for an extended trip. Respect to you both for managing it (being young helps, I think!). I tow a large pop-up camper for holidays but if I was to turn to vanlife I think I would have to bite the bullet and go for a MWB / LWB Boxer or Sprinter and accept that parking & access may be compromised. Great sandwiches Alex, you da man!

Enjoy watching. I could probably do a custard size bus, maybe a sprinter van, but this is just too small for me. I think so would at least need a composting toilet. 😂

Ooh, Beans, this vlog was so cozy and personal. Thank you for creating this. I have been soaking up so many van life videos to where my mindset is currently: YES I'd like to live in a van! I even convinced my boyfriend, and we're saving up for the van and build itself. I am so excited. I like what you mentioned about having your own tasks as a couple living in a small space. The apartment we live in right now isn't that big with one separate bedroom, but it would be a huge difference to live in a van. As of right now, I'd like to purchase a van in which I can stand up without having to extend the roof ceiling. I also would think to invest in a shower inside the van. Only the future will know what we got in store. Lovely video! I wish you both a great day. PS. I can imagine you get the question about the driver often. It is quite crazy that people tend to think of a male when they're thinking about who's driving. I too wonder why such an image exists in people's minds; however, I too sometimes notice myself thinking to myself "please don't be a woman" when someone's driving poorly. I have yet to adjust my own thinking even though I consider myself a feminist. I also remember thinking last summer, as I sat in the park looking at many boats float by, why the majority of people were men who were in control of the stirring of the boat. Thank you for mentioning this in your video!

I wish I knew what some of their best dinners are to make in the van. This one looked perfect for cold weather!

I'm thinking of getting a campervan and so, yes, I'm interested in the practicalities of 'van life', and in this case, when the video editing is done, never mind all the basics like showering and pooing! I'd noticed that Emma was doing all the driving in the first couple of videos I was doing - I thought this was odd, as you might want to share it over long distances. I assumed Alex couldn't driver, then I saw the Portugal video, where he seemed to be driving the hire car. As to whether I could be in the same space as anyone else over long periods - well, I expect one of us would end up at the bottom of the Danube!

I think before they ask why you do all the driving, they should be wondering how bad Alex’s driving is that you don’t want to share! 😝 I don’t let my hubby drive my camper because he seems to think parking sensors lie and should be ignored, alloys are there for kerbing and gears are made for grinding 🙈😱🤯😝😅 In all seriousness… until you mentioned it, it’s never occurred to me. Travel sickness is absolutely the most valid reason though ♥️

We are two adults and two dogs in a VW California, so we know what you are thinking, when you say living in a tiny van. We actually don't live in our van, but we use it on trips.
