Hi, we are Stephen, Jess and little Hunter, a travelling van life family who self-converted their dream house on wheels - we now live full-time in our Sprinter van called Cooper as we do a full lap of our home Australia.

[@flyingthenest]

We hope you all enjoyed this type of video - definitely something we have not done before! If you want us to show you our evening routine (which is a lot more chaotic) let us know below :) see you all soon!!

When Hunter grows up, she will thank you guys for everything you have done for her

[@flyingthenest]

awww!!

[@snehabapana3844]

awww..... she is too cute , and I just love the way how you take care of her as a parent , you guys are great parents and I would like to see your evening routine

[@gamerdaddy2570]

lol right

[@kimharris9226]

The effort u guys put into hunter is paying off she's a clever little cookie, she seems to understand so much

[@cathybechtel4376]

Yes, please, show the afternoon and the Witching Hour!. Hunter seems like she has a pretty good temperament overall. That certainly makes it a touch easier I'm sure!. Thanks for sharing!

[@RaisingVoyagers]

Cheers guys! We know how difficult it can be even having a routine in a van period, let alone with kids! We van life for a while with a 5 and 7 year old and at times it can be absolute chaos! We love the way you are handling things, living out of your van but then taking a break in airbnbs. That's something we would have loved to try as it would make things so much more sustainable! Also, our 7 year old is now obsessed with your channel :)

[@emma8362]

Loved this style of video! Hunter is too cute. She is so lucky to be having such amazing experiences at such a young age! Jess I would love it if you could let us know where your outfits are from! Bit of an OOTD!

[@flyingthenest]

most of my outfits are from Saboskirt or Billy J Boutique :)

[@emma8362]

@@flyingthenest thanks lovely! What about the gingham dress you are wearing in this video? Looks perfect for warm summer days

[@NZKiwi87]

@@flyingthenest I love that summery gingham dress, perfect for summer & super cute!

[@janiehemphill7469]

I loved seeing your morning routine, Hunter is a great little girl, she is so lucky to have such wonderful parents as you two! I’m enjoying all the adventures. Keep up the great work!

[@OziJo1]

Just lovely to watch. The experiences Hunter is having are absolutely priceless. Thank you for sharing x

[@fiore2151]

Oh how I needed this! My whole family is down with covid symptoms and this video was like a breath of fresh air. Thanks a mill 🧡

[@ishitajalan1858]

Why is hunter growing soo fast will miss seeing her in videos like this!!❤

[@The_Travelling_Jonoberries]

Hunter has grown up, we travelled Australia working especially in WA and where also adventurous 4 wheel drivers with a single child, she appreciates all the good times and some bad that we had, she has grown up a much wiser women and we have two beautiful grand daughters, so guys enjoy your time with Hunter as she grows up and she will always be so thankful for the life she has had. Take care, be safe and God Bless.

[@soniageorge]

Oh gosh! What a beautiful little family! I would love to see all the possible routines. Loads of love to you all. ♥️♥️♥️

[@ldhpc]

Thanks for giving us a glimpse at your day. As nana to 3 precious grandchildren I would absolutely agree with those same “witching hours” for them. Always good to hear you’re not alone when it comes to your child’s behavior. Hunter is obviously a normal well adjusted happy child with common times of crankiness like her peers.

[@apetxaggie91]

I discovered your channel only just last week, having watched your train ride from NYC to Orlando. Then, I saw your morning routines in the van. You are such a sweet family, and your baby girl, Hunter, is so happy and curious and sweet as well. Safe travels, and thank you for sharing.

[@missurbanlifestyle9187]

Hunter is so sooo adorable Jess!🥰 I love how she's trynna help you with hanging up the clothes! Ahh! Just too cute to handle hahah, and how she's starting to understand words tooo! How lovely! Lots of love to your familyy🥰🥰

[@itsamyyy91]

I swear everytime I watch a new video that hunter does something more adorable than the last.. I can't get over that little cutie 🥰 It's been amazing to see her personality grow so much especially on the road and learning new things 💗

[@martinalemmerhofer6937]

This was lovely to watch. To be able to spend so much time with Hunter while she is little and having ball day to show and teach her must make you feel incredibly grateful.

[@cass060stk]

Hunter is so adorable and very clever! Would definitely love to see an arvo/evening routine.

[@annagibsonofficial]

Wow KZbin recommended me your channel when you first had Hunter and I was so intrigued because my toddler Andrew is 2 days younger than Hunter (born June 4, 2020) and I've lived in Australia long-term twice (before covid). Let me just say I'm shocked to hear that Hunter wakes up at 5 am!! Andrew wakes up around 9:30! And I usually sleep until about the same time. I love that she loves to read. I see a lot of the same mannerisms and developmental skills in Andrew. She is so smart!

[@xlillaoise1497x]

The amount i smiled during that video watching Hunter is nearly embarrassing, she is so happy and seeing her in aw of the roo’s and birds is heart melting 💕 the way you guys laughed at the bug straight after a second of fright reflects directly on her, and you can see how she is so happy out and chill because of you guys, love watching little Hunter and the Flying the Nest vanlife

[@yvonnekneeshaw2784]

Love your family. Hunter is adorable as she climbs into her chair. She is definitely understanding words and learning to talk. ❤️🇨🇦

[@poppybloom7571]

Love your Channel When I’m older I would love to live in a van like you I watch your videos for a year you now it’s making me looking forward to living in a van when I’m older☁️ :)

[@sabrinadelgado2485]

OMG I LOVED THIS VIDEO!!!!!! Please do a afternoon vid!

[@kels96]

I haven't watched your channel or just KZbin in general in a few months. Watching this was so wholesome, seeing how big Hunter is and how you are living is amazing to see!!

[@Mel.H_]

Such a beautiful family❤Thanks for taking us with you on your adventures!! Love the day to day as well🥰

[@flyingthenest]

So glad you enjoyed it :)

[@rustypebble6196]

Continue to Cherish every moment. What a Beautiful little family you have created. Thankyou for sharing your experiences and for your reminder of Gratitude. All the best on your Journey.

[@melissatomei6637]

oh yeah Steve is also an amazing father and u are an amazing mother!!

[@bethkellum4308]

yep! holding toddler down like a ninja

[@anetazelazko493]

Great idea for this kind of video ☺️ I can't wait to see one about evening routine with the toodler 🙈 all advantures are amazing but for me this kind of video's are also exciting to watch. It is good to have the whole perspective about van life ☺️ love it! All the best and kisses from Poland ❤️ P. S. They started to put christmas decorations in shops already. Christmas adverts are on tv 😌 whenever I see them, I always think about you (especially Jess) 😉

[@motherwolf8407]

I love the peek into what a normal day looks like. I had 1 of 4 kids who had a (witching hour) struggle daily. She out grew it though and is a very strong young lady. I hope you live like this for a long time, maybe moving to bigger vehicles as your family grows, but people who homeschool and travel live the most amazing lives. I love seeing you both enjoy the toddler stage. It is such an amazing sweet time of life.

[@cherylkavanagh3387]

It has been such a joy to watch Hunter grow and experience new things. When watching this video, my first thought was that all of you are such an adorable family, which is so wonderful. Continue to drink in all of the these moments with sweet Hunter. Time goes so quickly. I love all of your videos. Sometimes it is nice to have an ordinary day mixed in with extraordinary adventures. Looking forward to the next.

[@joywilson9212]

I just love watching your videos. Hunter is so very adorable 🥰.

[@tamarafissoun2861]

This is like a recipe for a perfect childhood, and not only travel-wise, but emotion-wise as well!

[@aninditasyafri]

I love this! More food videos please! And also grocery shopping time would be fun to watch ✨✨

[@moniquevelasco20]

It’s so nice to see you guys having a normal and family routine. It is so important for Hunter to be in such a healthy environment. Loved it. Be safe guys!😘🤗🌼🇻🇪

[@chiinyii]

Hi Jess and Stephen! I’m curious if you’re planning to continue this lifestyle when Hunter is at the age to attend school? Love your videos btw ❤️ super entertaining

[@ashleegiles4548]

Yeah I'm curious to know how long they plan on van life for too!

[@sweetpotatey]

I absolutely love this kind of video. The structured travel videos are really great, but your family just makes me smile. Seeing regular day stuff is still such a mood booster with you guys. Thanks for all the smile-inducing content.

[@kanchanchoudhary7368]

This was such a wholesome and sweet video. Please do share other parts of your day as well. Watching your family is a true delight. Lots of love.

[@lins_132]

I love you guys, Hunter is going to be so thankfull for everything you have done for her these years. It is really sad I had to cancel my roadtrip through austrailia because of covid, but I will be back!

[@flyingthenest]

aww so sorry to hear we hope you can go on it again soon!!

[@barbarapatterson5487]

What an amazing life little Hunter has .Routine is important when they are little and you two have nailed it. 🥰

[@Wiley_]

Aww Hunter's outfit is sooo cute

[@ullimoser2529]

Such a nice way to end my day watching your new video! 🤍 You are such an inspiring couple with such a lovely little daughter. Hunter will thank you later for saving all her milestones on camera!! And Jess, you are such a loving mum, who gives her best at educating Hunter. I'm a preschool teacher myself and love seeing you both how you raise your little girl 🤍 It's heartwarming ❤

So nice to see and reminds me of our longer trip trough Australia with our newborn girl! Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@IKEMENOsakaman]

I love this channel. It really gives me hope that there is not only one way to live this life, but countless ways to be happy. I'm gonna move out of my small NYC apartment, and will start my life on the roads for the next couple of years. Thank you, Flying The Nest, for your inspirations.

[@flyingthenest]

aww woah! that's gonna be such a massive change! Let us know how you go!

[@rachellehartley]

Your videos are entertaining no matter what you're doing. Love you guys. Keep going ❤❤❤

[@cindynelson992]

Hunter is absolutely the cutest baby💝💝even my husband watched this one with me this morning, and he would laugh when she would do something cute! The kangaroos were so hilarious-that one was like lounging on the beach all sprawled out! It looks like you guys have mastered the van life very well with a toddler, and remember not to sweat the small stuff. I’m a grandma now and wish that I wouldn’t have stressed over the little things like tantrums, refusing to eat, etc. but you two seem relaxed with it all and are doing a wonderful job💜💜loved the vlog! And Jessica-I love those dresses you wear💜💜

[@RGarg-zj4eo]

This is such a wonderful video... Really wanting to hear hunter speak, call mom and dad

you guys are such an inspiration. when i grow older i want to get a sprinter van and hit the roads and document my trip through youtube and write my findings about the environment and wildlife! you guys really helped jumpstart this along with kara and nate. thank you so much for the inspiration!! can’t wait for your next vid! 🥰

[@ashleegiles4548]

Hunters camping chair is so cute! And those rice paper rolls looked so yum! I really enjoyed watching your morning routine with a toddler.

[@hattiereed3617]

The way he didn’t just except her to make breakfast but when she did he was very grateful and happy and said that was nice and he Wayne hunter while she cooked and didn’t expect her just to watch her and him sit on his phone I was happy for her

[@Mr.B_Kingston]

Loved this video!!! It was really nice to see you guys just as a family and see Hunter in all her glory. My wife and I just recently had our first baby and in the run up to her birth we rewatched all the baby hunter videos. Our little girl June also has a witching hour and I know my wife would likely really appreciate seeing Hunters. She often refers to “baby hunter didn’t do this at her age”, so it would be lovely for her to see that this to is normal

[@sandrawenger7921]

Love seeing videos like this - just doing life! You guys are so pleasant and fun to watch! Many blessings to you!

I love love love seeing your family in daily routine life. I could watch it all day. That's just the weirdo that I am. Your videos are always beautiful to watch. No matter what you're doing they are cinematic. Plus who knew kangaroos were so gentle and laundry was so pricey.
