Our last days in Sweden - Leaving our cabin for good (and struggling)
Emotionally we are not really ready to leave this #winterwonderland yet. But it's hard to argue with certain visa restrictions. In this video I am sharing our last few weeks in our little cabin, trying to cherish the fleeting time before we shift back into our new (old) life in the US. We are not sad about the shift, but it's not going to be as comfy in the beginning...

Surströmming Challenge - Trying Swedens stinky fish with locals
Просмотров 2,9 тыс.5 месяцев назад
We did it. We tried the stinky fish for the first time. Our kind neighbors invited us to their home to show us how it’s done. But just seeing all these videos on youtube, we were quite nervous, to have it in someone else’s home. I guess that’s the only option, when it’s -27 degrees… :) #surströmming #sweden #swedishculture 0:00 Intro 1:01 The Before 2:05 The Opening 5:01 The Eating 9:41 Other H...

    I don't really like any of these. Rear U shape sitting area that has minimal conversion is what Im leaning towards - NO TABLE. We want it as open and clutter free as possible. All the gadget stuff is so heavy, overbuilt and clumsy. Also.... so many of the builds are focused on van life, we want a travel van for camping and travel, not for living. Different pyramid and approach.

    • @lisasomewhere88
      @lisasomewhere88 Месяц назад

      For showers I would either just do an outlet to the bottom of the van that can be shut if necessary (but then a higher shower pan might be good). Ideally though would be some sort of holding tank of that shower water underneath the van with draining option.

    • @lisasomewhere88
      @lisasomewhere88 3 месяца назад

      Hi! Yes, I was very confused too! Started with just going to Homedepot, seeing what kinds of connections there are in the first place, and the terminology. Basically knowing the name/size/material of what you want to connect with the plastic tube (but for faucets most compression fittings are the same), and then just seeing with which connector you can get a bit closer to it. Also just googling what end you want to connect to another end, helped a lot. There’s a lot out there but not everything, so you need some inbetween connectors usually. Installing the foot pump needed much less pieces than with the electrical pump though, so that’s a plus. :) Good luck on the install! 💪We haven’t had a leak/problem with that system at all after 2+ years. 👍
