PLEAAAASE!!! Do not put you fire extinguisher next to your gas bottle!!! For the rest; Amazing job guys!!!!

[@thebuddymoon]

Thanks buddy, will definitely change that💪😁

[@diabeticnomad]

Also I don’t know the regulations in the uk but in the states you shouldn’t use green hoses for drinking water as they contain formaldehyde but opt for potable white hoses.

[@clarekelsey2774]

HEY...DUH. WHY DID NEITHER THE 'P L E A S E' COMMENTOR OR DANIEL SAY **WHY** IT'S A BAD IDEA TO PUT FIRE EXTINGUISHER NEXT TO PROPANE TANK?

[@61kimmarie]

I love the hand craftmanship. You have a gorgeous home on wheels!!❤

[@Thejus_5511]

The best vehicle for a trip, Well planned and well executed van, Great to see❤

[@SharingTravelMoments]

Hey guys you have done an amazing job with the van, it must be nice to have that feeling of home from home whilst you travel and somewhere that belongs to you, hotels are great but you can never beat your own personal space

[@thebuddymoon]

Couldn't agree more, your own space is always the best😁😁😁 Thanks so much…. Love our van😁

[@georgealexander9179]

You guys did amazing job. Now let's roll and show the world who is the best travel vloggers to the world. Love you guys! Enjoy and be safe.

[@thebuddymoon]

I like this comment😜❤️hahaha much love and will be safe😁

[@yasminedey8612]

You really have a lovely, elegant and well planned van. Besides the fire extinguisher right next to the gas being a danger, I would also add a holder for the shower head in the van. Great job! ❤

[@RAMAN.SAINI..12]

Best tourist you are that I find on youtube

[@thebuddymoon]

Thank you😁

[@SakibTube]

Once thing is MISSING you need First AID KIT ❤❤ and SALEEEEEE I LOVE IT 😅😅😅

[@thebuddymoon]

Oh, we have a first aid kit but that's part of our luggage😁😁😁 hahahah SAAAALLLE😂😂

[@TeresaJohnson-nr4hy]

Omg that is a Beautiful Van house on wheels ❤❤

[@user-cs9ii5io5l]

Fire extinguisher near the gas cylinder is not advisable. If there is fire due to gas you can not reach to the extinguisher.

[@Denise-uo7rv]

My word you guys were geniuses with the planning and DIY❤️ Can’t wait for the next adventure!!

[@VanshManocha-jj2jq]

Your van series is very nice 👌🏻!! I want this series to be continued !! I love watching your videos . ❤

[@thebuddymoon]

Ahhhhh😁😁 many more videos to come and some really cool ones😁

[@hollyvick181]

Never seen the batteries under the seat! Love the wood counters and where you set up the kitchen. Love the wood between the kitchen and bed. The " bathroom" area is awesome.

[@thebuddymoon]

So glad you like our van😁 excited to show you more videos of what we get up to in the van😁

[@Chris-xj4kk]

A wonderful transformation to your van! You will have to do a North America tour someday!!! Greetings from Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada 🇨🇦. Have a great adventure!!!! Cheers.

[@RanaureliFarm]

Very methodical and excellent planning, love it ❤ . Let's start the adventure 🎉

[@valynteena]

Beautiful home, I loved everything about it. I wish a way could have been made for the toilet to have a slide out from the shower as opposed to lifting it in and out.

[@ramennaidoo162]

Hey guys, greetings from South Africa. Nice to see you guys doing great. Of all the series, this one is the best. Now both of you can travel at leisure wherever you want and whenever you want. Time for you to show us the glitter and gloomy side of UK Wish you guys all the best and take care

[@Radiatingbeauty]

Great sprinter van and I agree move the extinguisher away from the gas tank then it’s perfect! 👍

[@thebuddymoon]

Thanks😁😁😁 we have moved it away from the gas tank😁

[@shirleyperera7859]

WOW that's a great transformation of the van. All the best and safe travels. From Srilanka ❤

[@thebuddymoon]

Thank you! 😃

[@amim7359]

[@gregrodrigues5453]

Lovely video. Very well set up van. You should check those happy days. They are a young couple who are touring UK now

[@alanwesley3568]

I don’t think there’s ever the perfect conversion, there’s always going to be compromises but I think Big Red is close to perfect and you’ve done a fantastic job. I love the ceiling! Good choice with the fabric bulkhead curtain to block out the cabin. Enjoy you travels and look forward to some camper van recipes 😉

[@SweetHurt]

Congratulations on the new van guys! What a cool van to live in it is! 👍 But as a female viewer, the moment Daniel took over explaining the electronics and batteries - all I heard was blah blah blah blah blah!😂😂😂 Nothing registered but what an awesome van!😂👍

[@1954biggeo]

Great video guys enjoy.

[@jugalnarainsingh]

Leanne & Dan. An amazing job done on the van. You guys have really thought everything through. Such good utilisation of space. Also good to see the sustainability elements. Perhaps you now need some Elon Musk satellite Internet connectivity to have net on the go! 😊 Maybe you can think of adding a very loud hooter alarm system to go up in case of any threat and also auto dial emergency services with your location. Enjoy your new home and keep sharing your travel blogs. Tons of love & best wishes 🥂💕👍

[@thebuddymoon]

Yes….. Tell elon to give us internet😂😂😂 we have an alarm in the car already, the locks are just extra safety😁

Woooow Amazing ❤❤❤

[@michellerenee9772]

Hey guys, I absolutely love, love your house on wheels. I've watched many videos in the last couple of days trying to get ideas for converting my Ford Transit 2013 into a tiny home on wheels. I enjoyed watching them all. However, your video has stood out the most. Your vehicle is beautiful. Thanks for sharing and stay safe out there. 💕❤💙

[@thebuddymoon]

Ahhhh thank you😁 im sure you will be making an amazing van yourself😁 and am sure you cant wait to get on the road to explore😁❤️

[@earthangel2522]

Exquisite build. Just EXQUISITE! "Ah, Precious. We must haves it. "

[@sattenapalliganesh3059]

Hlo buddies Your van look like a big red😁 Small customisations but nice All best for your UK traveling can't wait to see you through camping.

[@user-hs3zy1qf2v]

Hey buddymoon guys,you are both very energetic cats😻,I wouldn't ever seen another blogers..

[@ivo367]

Carbon monoxide is a heavy gas, heavier then air so you might want to keep the detector at a lower height so you won’t suffocate in your sleep. And I love your van! Have a great time van-liveing!

[@thebuddymoon]

Thanks for this tip👍 Definitely going to be changing that.

[@PS-mk5wy]

This is the van I want, I envy you

[@thebuddymoon]

Maybe you can buy it when we done with van life😜

[@prasadkulkarni8033]

[@asmajoolfoo4139]

Really what a genuine setup, you have calculated every bit of what you will need in order to make such brilliant arrangement! Well done! You both are a vey happy, lively and joyful couple! I wish you lots of happiness for the rest of your life. Very happy for you two. Believe in the Existence of God, be good worshippers so that you can live a long and beautiful life.

[@brunowest5027]

Shower is nice idea!

[@knv0123]

i know you guys would do this someday.. happy and safe journeys ahead, fam🥰💌

[@bluestraveler2980]

Your carbon dioxide(heavy gas) alarm should be way lower, where the gas gathers.

[@beanoyip06]

Oh yea the outdoor shower make sense! 😂

[@nncadi1]

Great presentation.

[@Ms.Frankenbuilder]

You kids did a great job.

[@thebuddymoon]

Thank you 😁

[@raymonde4272]

Great set up in Big Red. 👍🏻 If an Indian built that spice rack it would cover one entire wall. 🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙 And it was funny seeing Leanne doing her SAAALE skit again 😅

[@thebuddymoon]

Hahahaha that is the funniest thing ever🤣🤣🤣 maybe we need spices like indians…. Goof food😂😂….. SaAAAAllllLE😂

Awesome all the best 🙏🏽 🌞 👍🏾 👌🏾

[@kennethvandael518]

Glad you like it Kenneth😁

[@thetransferaccount4586]

another nice one

[@thebuddymoon]

Thank you😁

[@reginacamanag7570]

hello buddymoon, Precaution; The kitchen fire extinguisher should be within 30 feet of the stove so it can be accessed quickly in an emergency. But it shouldn't be installed in the immediate vicinity of the stove, where smoke and flames could block access. You have beautiful home🚐

[@MEDITATION990]

you're a lovely couple, enjoy your travels!

[@thebuddymoon]

Thanks so much😁😁

[@ElanaMccullum]

Does one go outside when you need to use the toilet😂😂

[@keciaanderson6317]

Beautiful home on wheels

[@lawyermahaprasad]

Mate in the same battery space you can add 3-7 KW LFP battery. Which can give you 3 days of off grid capability

[@jascaesar]

Wow! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@harjindersinghlotey3784]

Godspeed ✊🏽

[@liedia007]

great camper I haven't seen your entire series, but if you haven't, you should get a hole made from your gas cupboard and out into nature if a leaky seal were to occur. 👍

[@thebuddymoon]

Thanks for the help. We do have a hole there but just forgot to show it in the video😜😁

[@lifemyway200]

Beautiful van!! I'd just need the toiket a bit more accessible....small bladder😂

[@garyvandweller6959]

Amazing van 💓💓

[@thebuddymoon]

Thank you! 😃

[@Ckrisg1]

What a great home on wheels Buddymoon. Leanne these metric measurement's don't mean anything to us older Brits, feet and inches please. 😁😆

[@thebuddymoon]

Hahaha we don't understand feet and inches😂😂 will make sure to put the feet and Inches in the subtitle area in future videos for reference😜😂 thanks for supporting us @Ckrisg1 😁❤️

[@violettehicks9363]

for your safety please check out the proper location for your detector, i believe the carbon monoxide is heavier than air therefore it should be near the floor.

[@tusharhaldar03]

You both together are so cute❤

[@thebuddymoon]

😜Hahaha thanks😁

[@keeranbodalikar5911]

Please take Care when lifting out the toilet, can hurt your back 😮love your videos ❤

Will be some good exercise😜

I love the van. So inspiring. Can you get from the main living space to the front seat without exiting the van?

[@alpeshvasant]

That's really wonderful tiny little home!! Wonderful guys!! Not picking....but just a little observation, what will happens to those small containers ( or even some others as well) near Tea nook, when you have to suddenly apply the breaks or when you are driving uphill or downhill with some angle ? Won't they move and spill the things inside ??😊

You could get a waterproof cover for the toilet then you could sit and shave and wash your feet easier, beautiful van!

[@saratemp790]

I noticed that the US and the UK do vans differently. The UK always blocks off the connection between van and drivers area. So they put the kitchen in front. The US has it open so they put the kitchen on the side. Not sure which is better.
