Living in a Van During Canadian Winter - Day in the Life

[@TheLeopardGirl]

I don't get why people get so upset about when exactly you will be moving into sticks & bricks, I mean what does it matter to them? Its not like you're going to stop the channel in fact it means we get more of a variety of content from apartment living to part time vanlife. I suspect it's just that some people like to have a good old moan for moaning sake!😂🤣😂

[@Ladythyme]

Agreed! “SOME PEOPLE “! 🙄

[@deirdruex9591]

You invite us into your life you share your life but that never means you have to reveal your entire life. Take your time to my decisions for your own happiness!

[@VanlifePLUS]

I appreciate that, thank you

[@TheGhostlyone182]

Absolutely agree with what you said, we're along for the ride not in control of the itinerary! 👍

[@catrinamccasland5186]

You give something to watch before I go to bed thank you

[@jackieluckyangel5610]

Love Penny’s cushion- looks like a bed of little pink roses 💞

[@kimberlyobrien4677]

When you said (Oh what did you think I meant) and Penny meowed real loud, I busted out laughing 😂🤣😂🤣

[@SabrinaPaige-nz.7]

[@patriciac5214]

Matthew, your family is just the best. Thank you for sharing them with us.

[@jchawkjr2]

Just check the pringles ingredients. If it’s a bunch of stuff that might kill you, they’re from the US 😂😂😂

[@melisa8256]

I’m pretty sure he’s built up quite the immunity in his microbiome. He washes his dishes with a spritz of vinegar & a paper towel 😂 He likely can handle American food additives.

[@gingw7333]

​@@melisa8256 Vinegar is a pretty good sanitizer. My sister used it for everything from washing windows to cleaning kitchen counters. And it's less expensive than other cleaners. I don't use it because the smell in large amounts sets off my wheezing. But I love it in spinach!

[@lindageiling5922]

I don't get why we in the US keep getting poisoned . I'm sick of it. It takes me longer n longer to food shop . Other countries eat better than we do . Why

[@fran2688]

😂That was cute when Sadie popped in the video. The snow is beautiful 😍

[@capaddler]

Always 😅. Take care of yourself and Brooklyn too!

[@Landon-o7t]

I do love love the setup you have for penny she can look out 👀 the back window plus her bed on the dashboard too

[@preparingthebridefaithoutr6884]

GREAT video/vlog Matthew! ...LUV driving through the neighborhoods and the GORGEOUS winter scenery!🎉❄️😊. Your life journey is your own unique adventure ...and I think you're doing an EXCEPTIONAL job at co-parenting Lil Brooklyn. I'm confident that you'll make good choices in doing what's best for your family. As ALWAYS thanks for sharing ...take care, stay safe and God bless you!👍🤗💖🙏.

[@Valerygallery]

You've made yourself a very nice tiny home. It has tons of character! I like that! ❤

[@youtubehandle0]

Not sure when this was taken. SK got close to 10 inches this past week. It is such a mess out here. Calgary looks beautiful in the winter! You do you Matthew. It is your life, you decide when you move to an apt. I am looking forward to it though 😛

[@laurastewart2418]

Yipes! Look at the snow! For the first time, im not ready for it....none here yet...midwest usa

[@gingw7333]

South Central plains here. I'm never ready for snow. My old body doesn't like the cold. No snow here yet either. We're just coming up on our first real cold snap Thanksgiving night.

[@Likedale3]

Very well done Matthew!....I get it!

[@naomidonovan-perry2667]

Good night Matthew.

[@JoanMulhern]

happy for you mathew!🐱

Hi Matthew and Penny!!! I hope you are in good health. Stay warm and safe.❤

Good evening Master Matthew and faithful sidekick Miss Penny!

[@justinaward2133]

Hi Matthew and Penny. Thanks for the video, stay safe and warm❤

[@kimbrueck7811]

I soooooo enjoy your videos!!! Love watching right before bed. I know the “quality content “ will continue no matter where you end up. ❤❤

[@deboraward1574]

You make me laugh !!! Thanks. Stay warm

[@tinahardy9361]

Hey dude, when a combustible engine runs out of combustible, it quits. LOL!!!! Good to see you and Penny! Oh and let's not forget Sadie!!! Stay safe (and warm) and see ya in the next one!!

[@CindyCaVANas]

You always tend to make me laugh! Thank you! 😆👍🙋‍♀

[@connielentz1114]

Love the final music

[@naomidonovan-perry2667]

Hello there Matthew and Miss Penny! Good to see you.😊

[@mscattale]

Most kindergarten here in DFW is all day. They use to have 1/2 day but quit several years ago.

[@tracyk-79]

So I’m just wondering what kind of shenanigans the Christmas elf is going to get up to in your van Matthew.

[@ursulapercell4528]

Hello from Indiana! We used to go camping a lot. I was always happy to come home. I'm excited for you when you get your new place. It will be fantastic. You & Penny have a good night...😴

[@sheilacaine]

Yeah I liked the Sadie popping into the video too. I wish she would have done her famous head butt. 😂

[@annewinning9723]

First and last months rent is pretty typical here in Ontario

[@BrendaBrendabluestone-ho8hk]

Hello Matthew hope you're doing amazing today like always amazing video hope you keep warm and safe

[@leolaniukeulady4172]

Look forward to the videos. Cute hoe Sadie has grown into a young working woman. Sweet to give her a hug.

[@margueritemitchell1829]

I use magnets to hold my windshield covers

[@debramickley2295]

I do as well. They work great 👍😎🚐🇨🇦

[@roseannehayes9914]

Hi Matthew I sent you a water jug for your van or your stick and brick

[@connieshutts7074]

Penny needs her bed to go up the back wall some and I’m sure it will also be warmer for her… maybe some Velcro to hold it in place..😊😊

[@Kristina_Gisela]

You really have a way of putting inviting environments together. Both versions of Lucky show that. I wonder if that has to do with your creative eye for putting shots- both video and photos- together. That scene of your personal touches really shows that. (I especially liked the Benchmade butterfly.) I have no doubt that wherever you land will have the same touches that make a house a home.

[@johnlinn]

I think that UPS store is going to be a lot less busy once you return to renters status.😅

[@laurastewart2418]

In a couple days time, 15 duck jeeps....for variety i should count all jeeps and it would turn out something like this: 20 jeeps and 11 with ducks....lol😂

[@Lisa-on3ee]

I think when you make the move you should sit up ontop of Lucky like back in the day!!! I especially loved those videos 💜💜

[@kathywrightjohnson6804]

Hello Matthew and Penny

[@Christina0623]

Checking in to see if you've survived licking that envelope, Matthew! 😂 that reference made me laugh 🐾💚🚐

[@katreyes6358]

I expected you to insert the clip of that actor laughing when you talked about keeping your future apt minimal 😂

[@VanlifePLUS]

Hey now! 😂

[@LoriFranklin-ee4sh]

Can't wait til we go shopping with you for new living space!

[@barbatkinson5822]

Hi Matthew and Miss Penny 👋. Hope you are staying warm 😃🇨🇦

[@margueritemitchell1829]

Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦

[@James_P60]

There are a lot of food additives that are used in the U.S.A that are not allowed in Canada like Red dye 40 and Yellow dye 5, which is a couple used in the U.S.A that are not allowed in Canada, would probably explain why Fruit Loops taste different maybe better in Canada as a example. Just thought I'd share that bit of info.

[@jackieluckyangel5610]

Not sure if that comment from Penny was complimentary or not 😂🤣🤷🏼‍♀️

[@sandyd2331]

The Christmas shoe book is a great and hopefuly will. Be a great tradition that you and Brooklyn carries on.

[@rythemzlatin]

"How bad ya want Meat Puck ?" ( Penny starts sharpening her claws ) 😂

[@jefferyconklinjr7149]

It' look so nice out there

[@connielentz1114]

I’m curious about how many keys you have. It seems every door has a different one, then there are the locks on things. You should have a “guess the number of keys I have to have” competition. The prize could be a virtual key chain. My guess is nine different ones. Duplicates don’t count.

[@AngiesASMR]

Penny has you well trained Matthew! 😂 Have you thought of getting her a new companion? Oh..and last I checked...this is your life...you live it how you please.

[@kerrymcclaren3082]

Im allllmmmmooosssssttt caught up. Lol😂

[@caroltaylor63]

Kindergarten here in the states, is 7:40am to about 3:30 or so pm🇺🇲

[@mytinyjourney]

Ok it really wasn’t a Dixxon - I thought you were messing with me. I’m excited to see some of your apt shopping. Hopefully you’ll take us along a bit when you can.

[@karenlowes7802]

Loved this video Mathew!😊

[@thinkingkingdomthoughts]

❤❤❤ MATTHEW, was just curious, if we will be hearing about the ring you wear on your necklace. I appreciate your openness with us. For those who wanna complain and make accusations…. Really does not have to watch…. I am glad when you remind them of that lol. Tracie

[@VanlifePLUS]

Check out the last episode of Chapter 4 - all the answers you seek lie within!

[@thinkingkingdomthoughts]

@ oh my gosh…. That must if aired when KZbin unsubscribed me…. Made me so mad when i seen what they did! Of course i immediately subscribed again.

[@VanlifePLUS]

@@thinkingkingdomthoughts it’s very frustrating for sure. Definitely check out that episode though, it was lots of fun to film too

[@jonathanrunciman5676]

If the ingredients list is English and French, they’re Canadian if it’s English and Spanish, they’re American

Hi Matthew… being from the US, as far as Pringles go, I have to say I use to buy Pringles all of the time and enjoyed them. I hadn’t had them in a while and decided to grab some recently….they were awful….. I don’t know if they changed the recipe but I won’t be stocking up on them any time soon 🤮

[@Alberta_Canada]

Hey fella camper, I'm one of your followers, I passed u on opposite side of hiway this morning on hiway 1, you were towing the green jeep, was just before cochrane, anyways cheers, I was headed west into bc salmon arm

[@downtoearth1950]

Here in Australia there is a difference in the quality of Summer vs Winter Diesel. Summer diesel contains more wax that causes problems by thickening in cold weather. Winter diesel doesn't have as much in it. 😊

[@alanshaffer6724]

Hi Matthew

[@VanlifePLUS]

Hi Alan

[@alvinmousseau1100]

Great video

[@ceebee987]

Hey, how are you enjoying the new diesel tank location? Do you think Penny's unwillingness to jump up/down might be due to a touch of arthritis?

[@regbillings4955]

@22:32 all i need 😹🐈‍⬛ ❤ Great video Matthew sir :)

[@connielentz1114]

The stuff expands to fill the space available plus 10 percent. It’s inevitable

[@wanrapea]

Lucky 2.0 is great. After seeing several older vlogs, I noticed more inconveniences that you had to work around in 1.0. Although, at the time I thought she was perfect. Just adding the swivel seat & changing the diesel heater & diesel fuel locations were 90% of it. It will still be awesome for camping. Naturally everyone wants to upgrade their living conditions when they can. Onwards & Upwards. Are there any tiny home communities in Calgary?

[@JoeZyzyx]

Just looked for plastic straws in Canada, and ran into something called "Single Use Plastic" ban law there. Looks like Canadians are restricted now to those paper waxy straws ONLY.

[@jessicaw.6321]

Something you might want to consider about the Pringles. In Canada I think they don't allow certain chemicals in the foods there. In the United States they sadly do. And that may be why the taste is different

[@DallasLemieux]

Canada allows many toxic chemicals in our food.

[@marigauthier3475]

​@@DallasLemieuxmurica is worse. Also never buy u.s. dairy, pesticides and hormones in it. Even Europe don't allow lots of murican food stuffs

[@lindaterrell5535]

@@DallasLemieux But not the same ones. I think we should all go back to salt as a preservative. Soak everything in order to eat it.

[@naomidonovan-perry2667]

Oh my goodness Penny is so cute!

Many people believe “stuff” brings them happiness. I.E. Amazon wish lists lololol

Not a Dixxon! Wrangler from Wal Mart
