- VAN LIFE VLOG | why we choose to live in a park model full time
Instead of just telling you why we love van life/RV living/camper van travel we thought we should SHOW you!!
Thank you for Go RVing Canada for sponsoring this video. Check them out for all your RV, park models and Canadian adventure travel needs gorving.ca/ AND tell us in the comments below how YOU #BringBackWildhood ?!
If you've been following along our summer adventures, you know that we cannot get enough of British Columbia, Canada. So we bring you along for another vlog from our country's most beautiful province.
The morning begins with a hike to all three Joffre Lakes -- talk about pristine blue lakes and scenic mountainous backdrops!!! Then, we head to North Arm Farms to handpick our own blueberries and finish the day with a dip in One Mile Lake. Ah van life, never a dull moment.
UPCOMING MEET UP DETAILS:
Saturday, July 28th 2018.
Portland, Oregon
Alberta Park
10:00am
Hope to see you there!

I have seriously been binge watching your videos. They are such feel good videos. With so much negativity in the world when I sit and watch your videos it’s a nice change of pace. I’m far from the van life but totally love y’all! Your positivity is contagious:)
You guys are killing it atm! How good is Joffrey lakes! So crazy seeing it packed with people. When we were there in late October it was just us and one other group.. It was bloody freezing though!
PS I love your B-roll! Max : )
Max & Lee haha pros and cons eh?! When we were in Banff last year October time we had a few trails to ourselves too but also caught some minor frostbite haha so ya know?! Missing you guys (as always) XX
Haha that ol' weigh up, frost bite or photo shopping people out of your pics... Likewise guys!
I couldn't stop laughing after Eamon said we are gonna make a bench then I see Bec put down a big rock and Eamon put down a big rock then they both put down a board to sit and eat looking so serious. You two are funny. Lol
Hello beautiful people! Excited to share this video that we believe SHOWS you why we choose to live in a van XX Let us know your thoughts and why you would choose to live tiny...
You guys are so fun..
I looking for a van now and making plans for fulltime Van Life! Yall got me so excited I feel like were friends. I'm a new Vegan aswell so freestyle friday has helped so much. I cant wait to order the tea, I hope I get to hang out one day! Kisses
My sister and I slept in an old school canvas tent while traversing the West coast, Canada and the East coast down to Florida. Our parents slept in the VW van. Tiny is cozy and routines are easy due to lack of stuff. Think about it, most families on earth have one (1) pot to cook in... And often to eat out of.
I want the van life so bad for me and my 10 lb chihuahua. I've got alot to learn but thanks to you guys, Max and RIP Lee, Kara and Nate, and Craig and Aimee, I've got alot of info under my belt. Thank you so much!!
Hahahaha I just was watching the blueberry picking! One berry at a time! I did blueberry picking for a few summers when I was younger. We had these buckets we could strap around out waste so you could use two hands then you just kind of hold your hands under the branches and use your thumbs to roll the ripe ones off into your bucket! Full bucket in no time! Tips for next time!!!
Eamon, you seemed to be in the best mood I've ever seen you in! Your comments weren't snarky! You were super respectful to Beck! Eamon, you made the video even more enjoyable than usual!! Thx
Please keep the B Roll. Love and appreciate the creativity!
Roxanne Jameus thank you Roxanne!! Sending love 💛
Wildhood - Saturday mornings, neighbourhood kids, picnic lunches, outta the house before the parents were up...biking around town, the beach and back trails. Only rule...be home before supper. Yup. We'd arrive home exhausted, dirty and starving. Best days.
BEST DAYS!!! Thanks for sharing Tami XX
You two need to write a cook book! I'm kinda like, sorta, maybe vegetarian! But all the way gluten free because of celiac disease. I have to have the chick Pea salad/sandwich recipe and the potatoe hash recipe! Please!!!
The reason you two live in a van is because it’s epic. All of the adventures you go on are extraordinary. I envy that. I’d totally be out there with you every step if I could. This was an enjoyable vlog guys. Thank you so much. Eamon and Bec are so cool.
You guys cracked me up towards the end “Hello Hilton, free accommodation for a week no thank you!” 😂😂 Keep living your best lives, you inspire me!!
why I L♡VE you two is your rapport, chemistry & ability to conquer problems......not to mention how you show the human side of relationships, like, when you're preparing delicious food & you both start eating it, hahaha! Everybody does that, but, in this world of dieting, watching your weights, being a super slim model body, etc, everybody acts like it's taboo!! You show aspects of human relationships & you make them work! Becca, I cannot see you as introverted! Anyway, look forward to your next vlogs!!!😁💙💚💛💜💟
Awesome video, Eamon and Bec! Joffrey Lakes is such an amazing spot to relax with a cup of tea and enjoy the views. Life on the road can't be beat! #BringBackWildhood
Dark chocolate peanut butter nice cream with cacao nibs and a video by Eamon and Bec. Great way to wrap up a super busy day.
Melony oooo wow!! I can't think about anything else but nice cream.... niiiiice creeeaaam..... gah!!!
One day you might make it to my area. Park at my house, vegan nosh fest!
You live in a van because you can! The color of the lake is amazing!! #VanCan
Absolutely right!!! #VanCan :)
Eamon & Bec You guys are too cute🖤
One of my favourite videos you've made! Also something about 'Buddy' for your couple names haha! So cute.
I never comment but I watch every vid. This video hit home I’m actually RVING right now! And you hit it on the nose. We run and play all day and then crash in the RV! Our home away from home 💕❤️ you guys are so fun!!
Ok, I just want to say this. I think it’s awesome how you both keep your content appropriate in every way. Never crude or anything my kids could not watch or hear. Just wanted to say thank you. -John
Keep the braids @eamon! Also yours and @minimalmillenials videos just hit the next pro level 💜
I just love your guys the realness is always so refreshing! Thanks also for always showing me something beautiful in your videos! You have no idea how much it means to me and my recovery!
Bec, your smile always brightens my day 😍 love you guys!!!!
Awe thank you Britta!! So happy to bring a smile to your day 💛💛
Rigght her personality is amazing
I can’t stay away from the videos you share, the more I watch the more hooked I get and understand. Lol.
You guys are nailing it! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking ..oh and you guys were awesome as always! ❤️
Trina Golas thank you Trina!! You're the sweetest 💛🤗
So much fun watching your older eposides when one has started to follow you more recently, with the whole cabin reno. You guys seem to have evolved in a really great way together.
You guys should be "B&E"
After contemplating on how or why I could / should get a mobile life. It looked bleak last night but after this video you have restored my dream. Ha ha ha. Keep being amazing.
"can you imagine the STATUS of that toilet? Holy Smokes! SO MUCH CONTRIBUTION! You guys CRACK me up!!
I used to live across the street winter of 2016/17. Winter wonderland that year, loved one mile lake too!
That place is so gorgeous it literally looks fake! So beautiful and I'm so jealous
I love how you guys call each other "buddy" so your followers should be buddies or van buddies! That would be super cute I think!
I love when my notification pops up saying there’s a new video.
Ah, you just made my day Taylor!! Thanks for being a part of this community and always supporting us :)
You guys chose a perfect park! There is a wonderful little Vegan bar called the Bye & Bye only a few blocks away on 9th & NE Alberta, We live in the neighborhood and its one of our favorite places to go grab a bite when we're feeling lazy
Beamers? Bec/Eamon/happy beaming smiles? lol no idea what the name should be but just glad to be one of them :) Love your videos and your b-roll is always so beautiful! This video especially was so much fun to watch. Much love!
Great video, loved it. Not sure exactly what B roll is, but I can say this......you do it exceptionally well. You are an inspiring couple, travelling, working together and living in a tiny space together day after day and you still show respect and love for each other. All the best to you!
i really really love your guys videos! you guys are inspiring my family and i to go see the world together and depend on each other. you have changed our lives and i want to say thank you! love you! always good vibes!
Joliesse, this is such a wonderful comment to read. Eamon & I are so happy to have you and the entire family as a part of our RUclips family and are beyond thrilled to know that we've helped inspire you all to travel more together XX
I'm a new(ish) and huge freaking fan. I love you guys and the minimal millennials. I recently bought a van and started working on converting it. I looked up some videos on RUclips and y'all are my favorite people. Your videos are soo upbeat, happy and inspiring. You guys make such a great couple. I will be starting a new remote job in a couple weeks and CAN'T WAIT to start traveling everywhere!!! Wish I could meet you guys in Portland, but I'm in CT on the east coast, lol. Hopefully next time!!!!! 😜
Wow 😮 it’s absolutely beautiful there! I’d fall off the log 😂. Love all the recipes can’t wait for Friday’s! Thank you for including us in your amazing world 🤗

Eamon, I love how much power you put into mashing the chickpeas. So much love for Bec!! :)
Love seeing you guys explore BC! Can't wait to get there later this year myself. You guys should also do a day where you swap roles -- Bec films all the gorgeous B roll while Eamon frolics around on camera. Hahaha! Safe travels kids!
Meghan Lalonde haha I want to so bad I just have a lot of work to do on the cameta shooting front... Eamon on the other hand would make an EXCELLENT frolick-er with little to no additional training 🤣😂
Holy shizballs man!! You're almost at 100k 😲 I'm so happy things are happening for you guys.
I’m loving all the videos !!!!! Can’t wait for more!!!!!!
Again, you two are amazing, beautiful, carefree, delightful, exciting, fantastic, great, happy, inspirational, joyful, kind, lovely, magnificent, noteworthy, optimistic, positive, quick, radiant, super, talented, unique, vibrant, wonderful, xenial, youthful, and full of zeal. That was another amazing video with such beautiful scenery. Thank you for always encouraging others.
introvertedlens thank YOU for the kindest words ALWAYS 💛💛
You two are so much fun to watch. I really enjoy living vicariously through your adventures. I hope to own my own van one day and hit the road in the future. I’m a senior citizen so my adventures will be a bit different than yours. Every time you post I think to myself what are they up to now? Whatever it is I know it will be fun!
I love the B ROLL!!!! I love that your doing another meet up! You really need to do one here in Texas!
Hi friends! Glad to see another video. My husband and I are making a trip to Seattle and possibly Vancouver soon! I’ve never been to Canada so I’m excited to explore. 👍🏻👍🏻
Bec: "Ten second rule or.."
Eamon: "It's a goner"

Top notch editing on this one buddies.

The scenery is absolutely amazing! Great job with the video! You two are so genuine and entertaining at the same time. Portland is on my bucket list. Stay real....keep being in the moment. I second Buddy Squad....epic! Luvs
Caught the video late today, in Thailand, but definitely enjoyed the episode. Doing my own travels, but still watching. Keep exploring. I will always sent you positive messages. Bec love you.
Hi Beautiful! Was thinking about you earlier. Hope all is well in Thailand XX
You guys are awesome, this video is awesome, you make each place you visit look sooo attractive. BC is pretty much top of my bucket list atm although my bucket list is really long, lol. The idea of being out in nature all day long and coming home tired, hungry and ready for bed but stupidly happy.... Brilliant!!! Love you guys! 💖 😘
omg y'all are seriously the cutest. I can'ttttttttt
Your videography and editing has gotten so good. Having binged watched your videos, you make really interesting and beautiful videos.
I love Alone. If you ever get here to Alaska, you are welcome at my place. Plenty of parking area, shower, laundry, vegan food!
StarFlower99654 thank you love!! I think Alaska will be for another time 💛. And yes, Alone is so good!! Only TV show we keep up with 🤗
I winced at the soap in the river and her touching his nose but you know it's love when she picks your nose boogies for you. Thats wife material right there. Lol
Really enjoyed this video! I love the way your videos are evolving. Killing it!
I'm well getting into this channel you guys crack me up! 🤣🤣 can't wait to start my van life! picking up my first van for conversion on Friday!!! soooo stoked for freedoooooooom!

This was SO chill to see before bed time, now I'm gonna dream of van life. Love you(r videos) guys! (And your hair Eamon.)
I miss you guys, that meetup sounds so fun! Keep up the fine work.
PS: can't believe you ever doubted the beard eamon, I can't even imagine you without it anymore.
If you go back to BC you should visit Othello Tunnels I think is about 2 hours from Vancouver and also Cultus and Chilliwack Lake, like an hour away 👌🏽
Great vibe from you both, you inspire me to enjoy more every moment. Thank you guys!
You guys make me smile every time
Thank you so much! I feel really inspired to discover you! We are going to get a van for a Year in New Zealand. Which is not the same but this really get’s me excited for life and I feel like I’m there with you! Beautiful videos!
Really enjoying your videos! Especially loved this one, thank you x 🙏 xxx
Yessssss our family is growing im loving it
I just realized I had friends who were just there and had the exact same day as you guys. Went to the same lake and farm. Wild!
I definitely won't be able to see you guys I live in Michigan but you guys make van life you look amazing I can't wait to do some van liking of my own
AWW, I'm going to miss you in Portland. I am leaving Fort Lauderdale on the 1st, I converted a Sprinter for my daughter, son in law and grandson, they live in Bend. I have a 3200 mile trip, I hope it goes well. I enjoy your videos, keep it up. So where is Bob?
You guys are the best! You look so happy today 😎❤️

Sarah Stott hi love! We have a lot of fun meeting this beautiful group of people so I'm sure there will be lots more meetups in the near future XX
Texas yees please
Fun! Yes, it's Alberta park 😋 we live right down the road! Not sure if we can make it, but maybe we'll see you there! Safe travels 💚
Colette Doerschuk-Tiberi totally understand! Would love to meet you if you have a couple minutes but no pressure ever! Happy Wednesday 💛💛
Eamon & Bec yes! If we have a few minutes before our little one naps we will come by 🤗 just unfortunate timing as we already had plans to see friends who are visiting from out of town 🤷 hopefully see you sat though 😁
Ahhh Pemberton is amazing. Nothing like being a little bit crispy and tired at the end of a great day.
I would looove to meet you guys! Been following you for a while now and I can truly say you are the coolest people ever :) Unfortunately I'm in NYC atm, but have fun on the West Coast you guys! Lots of love from Germany :)))
guys loooove it! somehow i have the feeling that Peter McKinnon showed you how to b-roll? happy sunny greetings from germany ! Keep on going!
my grandpa would go to B.C. once a year for fishing. I always wanted to visit BC, seems lovely :)
Rachel Kent oh wow, if you ever do get the chance I cannot reccommend BC enough. Of all the places we've ever been BC is a top pick through and through 💛💛💛
Love this vlog guys! Totally wish I could go to the meet up but just a bit to far.😪 One day.... ✌
Awesome vlog. The Hilton shit made me laugh.Have to beat Dave2D to the punch line.: You know your living a good life when picking fruit is considered fun. Cheers from Ohio
Haha fair enough!! We always say we're living our version of the dream life... picking fruit on a Sunday afternoon isn't for everyone Haha 👌😘
Becon 😂 better than bacon. Loving your videos ❤️
That hilton bit was hilarious.
Much love from the U.K., you’ve inspired me too follow along a similar path too you both!
Literally want to cry when i watch van life videos because ugh i wish
Wish I could take off and drive 10-12 hours up to Portland to see you guys! Keep having fun and sharing!✌❤🌱🕉
ohh yeah I grew up in a farm, the smell is the hay! lol That's what it smells like when it's kept in bundles like that for a long time hehe. Kat
Ahaha, glad you two got a proper masher. I have been eating your ultimate chickpea mixture as a wrap for lunch four days a week for lunch. Gorgeous setting and fab video- thanks! 💕
Just found your channel today and wow you guys are couple goals! Living the dream but also keeping it real
Good times ! have never stopped at Joffre Lakes, usually just blast by on our way back or forth. Thank you for showing what we have been missing. Have not seen enough of yourselves to have any input on a monicker... yet : ]
