Brenna Living Joyfully
Австралия
Добавлен 19 мар 2015
Hi, my name is Brenna and back in May 2018 I decided that I wanted to live a simpler and more joyful life. I am currently travelling Australia in my self converted Toyota Hiace campervan with my dog Abby embracing the simple things in life and living joyfully. Come along with me as I share my current journey as well as how I made my dream a reality. Life is short and all you ever have is the present moment so make the most of it. xx

Awesome! Thank you!
Happy Van-niversary!!! Loved seeing how you built your home, given me lots of inspiration! 🤩
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉
Yeah, I'm hitting that problem now... it depends is a perfect answer! it just depends... I'm just going to work through it and add as and when I need.
Exactly!
Thanks Brenna, now working on a mud map for the "what if" situation :D
Happy for what sounds like your wise decisions. All good thoughts for you and Abby! Looking forward to seeing more of the relaxed day-to-day here. <3
Hi Brenna. Just asking what process do you do when getting your van serviced?
I hang out with my dog in a park.
Impressed x
You are amazing!
I really enjoyed this video! Good to see you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
👍👍👍
Yaaaay 👏👏👏 .. keeping the Van 🥰 .. I too love 💕 my 2011 Mitsubishi Express 2.4 van & am so happy & content to keep it
That is awesome!
Great walk through Brenna! I am new to this and still experimenting what will work. Back to the storage be room today to switch out some things and try that. I’m certain I will learn so much from your channel that will help me along the way! Thanks! Van Girl Shirl is a fan for sure! 😎🚐🇨🇦
Glad it was helpful!
Lovely video Brenna.. You made your van super comfy and practical too :) Great work!
Welcome to your 5th year, I'm it the same boat here in the states 👌. Congrats and... 👍 Rock on 🙂.
Thanks, you too
interesting. i enjoyed it
Hello from north Carolina
👋
Enjoying your videos! I have a friend visiting me from Australia next month. I'm in the US, Michigan. We are planning a trip to the Upper Michigan peninsula to take a river boat cruise to see the fall colors. She just sold her house in Australia so she is traveling and I am going to tell her about the nomad life, however I bet she already knows, 😅
Sounds great!
I've never seen a half-hour camperization without showing the action 👌. I loved how "well-furnished your head" is (in Spain that's what we say when someone thinks intelligently and acts logically), brilliant 👏. Great to have tested one night before tying down any furniture. I also built my van on my own with help only on the ground and I understand your effort. You look so happy, that is the most important thing, supercongratulationssssss 🤗 .
You are so clever…no really ..l think you did a great job..l love your van …a great size…some camper vans are too big
Thank you! 😊
I’m a new subscriber and thanking the youtube algorithm gods for directing me to you. Thank you so much for this. It’s exactly what I needed.
Thanks
Thank you 🙏
Oh my gosh this is the video I was wanting!!!! Thanks so much Brenna. I can't wait to build my van one day. Have a good one and hope Abby is well (and keeps barking happily) Harry
You're welcome Harry😁
Yikes!😮 It is mind-blowing to me that you did your build in 4 months while emptying the house! Kudos to you!!! 😊 I can't even just empty the house, and I have been working toward that for over a year!
I was exhausted at the end 😳
Yes, thanks to your excellent descriptions, I could indeed imagine how it was done and how things looked. ❤Thnaks.😊
You are so welcome!
I have not watched you for a while. This is very interesting. Thank you for sharing. How is safety in Australia? I have not lived in my van that I bought with plan to live in it someday but now we have crime skyrocketing in the USA and I am not sure if this is a good idea to live in the van now days.
It is much safer in Australia, especially in the West
@@BrennaLivingJoyfully thank you. That’s what I thought. US soon will become the most dangerous country in the world
I really like the keep it simple philosophy 😀
Good on you Brenna, you're an inspiration for sure. Love your videos and thank you.
Hi Brenna ...I remember you sharing how you made your wall storage pockets , folded hem, no stitch but fabric glue. I did my blockout curtains with only scissors biro and ruler and fabric glue. No heading needed as I created holes to hang, by two fold peak , a small snip of each with scissors to create small diamond holes and sealed each with drop of fabric edge sealer. Then hooked each on original curtains' hooks between them and windows. Still holding together and great insulation on my vw transporter "house windows" Your experiments and tips are brilliant .....thank you 🤗 Looking forward to seeing more of your delightful art. Enjoy ( in joy ) ❤🐾🐾🐾🐾
Which video were the pockets on?
Oh dear a can't remember It wasn't demonstration but just a verbal view of pockets in use ....maybe you can request Brenna to share how she made them 🤗
Thanks Brenna - this was so helpful and inspiring to hear that you managed most of it on your own, and created a space that feels right for you.
You are so welcome!
thanks brenna, that was so fun and informative. i have a toyota sienna mini van that is my camper (mini r.v.) and i love it so much. tell abby , Hi !
Hi Brenna, go watch the wise words of bushmanmick. Simple living to a new life. His last video was great. He lives out of a van too.
Thank you Brenna, I love the simplicity of your van and how you’ve explained your setup. It gives me inspiration to just go and get one and get started on it. 😊💖
You can do it!
13 my very favourite number, I think you have done extremely well, always enjoy your videos
Many thanks
Another great vid Brenna. You should be very proud of yourself for even attempting it on your own. Well done you ! It looks so comfy. Take care... Terri from Tas.
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi Brenna, you did a really good job of the van. Like how it is practical yet homely.
Do things slide around much?
Not at all it is all screwed down
Is this September 13, 2024? Do you have much use for things like aluminium foil, glad wrap or baking paper?
I use glad wrap occasionally and baking paper for my wet paint palette
I loved seeing your pictures that time we got to hang out, and I loved seeing it all for a second time. It’s so very cool that you built the entire thing from scratch!! I feel super proud of myself for the bits that I’ve put into my van starting from the existing bed platform and pull-out drawer. 😊
And with so much inspiration and ideas from you!!!
Thanks, Brenna. Very enjoyable video. Can I ask, did you have any prior experience building or renovating, before attempting your van build? 👍🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
Not at all
@@BrennaLivingJoyfully Well then, good for you. Great job!
23:36 Angle brackets! 😊
Yes!
What did you use to put up the walls?
Wood screws
Congratulations on your four year anniversary. You explained the process well. Yes, measure twice cut once. It looks like a very cozy van. 🐈
Thank you! 😊
The real mattress is devine
Heavenly 😁
That so interesting what a difference the (lack of) insulation makes over the wheel arch!
🌞Nice to see you looking forward to another Aussie summer I've just got a new fone that took weeks to set up It's been hell not being able to interact with all the special vid creaters I'm feeling better now I can
Welcome back!
Very informative Brenna! Second-hand gold :-) Do you not get condensation under your mattress being on a flat (not slatted) platform?
Only on extremely cold nights, so very rarely.
@@BrennaLivingJoyfullyThere are pads that have “bumps” on them that lift your mattress up just a tiny bit to get airflow under the mattress. I don’t remember what they’re called but I’m sure you could find info on an online camping site. You will get mildew if you don’t have airflow, either the pad or cutting holes in the base. Loved your ideas.
I remeber in one of your other videos Brenna you do air your mattress out at some stages ?
Can you do one on your cooking/kitchen set up if that’s possible.
Love how simple your did your van and it looks really cosy . I think the thing is to just get on the road and enjoy . Hubby and I are deciding wether to get a van already done or get an empty van and do it ourselves. I'm for getting an empty van and doing it ourselves . 😊
