I am sure that it is a surprise for a lot of you to see me driving around an old VW bus but my life has changed in so many levels lately. I will never be the same (if you feel lost please check my last vlog or subscribe to my Patreon www.patreon.com/lidiarico ) What do you think about my new/old van? I know she is a total classic van and to be honest I am in love with her. I am also glad that I found California Westys mechanic shop www.californiawestys.com so I can feel at home and taking cared of! I love when the comment section is alive and showing support, don't be shy and leave me a comment!
I am Always Lost! I have lost ALL My Loved ones and only my grandparents are left and that probably won't be much longer... Pls Pray for Me that I'll be okay on my own... DBC..Daily Blessings Coming! .. Thank You ALL for Everything Everyday!! ... The GOOD, the Bad, Happy & Sad. I BELIEVE EVERYTHING Happens for a Reason and I'm BLESSED EVERYDAY Regardless the Situation!
I love you, ik life is not easy I'm struggling myself mental health and tbh ur vlog about Philip left me totally lost and hurt for u and as well as seeing him on here with you n now he's gone rip Philip we love u. I like ur van but for me idk if I'd be able to live that small maybe but idk..... I'm in a camper now but I need to fix my car(s) n save to buy a van or something so I can go where I want too.....

Blessings to have you back. You are braver than you know🏝 GO for it... love the van its going to look bomb.. woohoo.. Cant wait for your next chapter.. will you be getting a dog.. And your music choices yes love it... Yay🚐🛹🌅🌻💗💖
The only constant in life is change. This year has seen me sleeping in the front seat of my truck in LaMesa, Houston, and now outside Chicago. At the end of March i move on towards the east coast for a few months. Do I like it, HELL NO, but its what i have to go through to make a better life for myself 3 months out. Its wonderful to see you back Lidia. Your bright smile is back, and the joy in your eyes melts my heart. I'm looking forward to your next adventure.
Lidia, you are a light that shines bright, and you light up others around you. I can see it. Just live in the moment and enjoy it! You're stronger than you've ever imagined. Stay positive. It's great to see you again! ✌
@@Unknown--user610 Honestly, she's not my type physically. I was talking about the way she interacts with people, and how she makes new friends everywhere she goes. Not that I'm in any way obligated to explain that to YOU.. Now go back to minding your own business and stop being a hater. It's ugly.
I've had major setbacks in my life and I've always steered through them by changing my environment first and using that as a fresh start to clear my mind and get back to being excited about life and what tomorrow brings. Best of luck Lidia.
So glad you are back Chica considering what you have been through !! Hope you post more consistent videos ! Be careful of the homeless people, stay safe out there !
I'm so sorry for your loss. I just watched your video about the loss of the person who meant everything and more to you. May his spirit live in the trails of your journey and his memory forever a blessing to all who had the honor of knowing him. I will make it a point to continue to watch your RUclips channel, as your adventures continue to evolve...
I was a HUGE fan of your old channel with your husband. You guys were so cute, gorgeous and fun! I forgot the name of that channel but this channel looks great too and this VWVAN shop looks top notch!!! Westy Life!!!
Your the rock Lidia. The pain you’ve gone through nobody should have to. My heart goes out to you. ❤. Be so so strong girl. You have amazing support and all of my prayers. Take good care of yourself
Welcome back LidiaRico’ it’s good to see you back you deserve to be happy you look so refreshed if no one mention it you’re missed 🌱… still gorgeous and beautiful
Lidia, I have truly missed your smile... Still wish you would get the heck out of California (or the entire West coast) though. Mental illness is running rampant out there. Anyway, stay safe, BIG HUGS and much ❤as always from Tennessee!
Hi Lidia What a transformation for you We love the vibe girl keep it going you are one of our favorites and the new cabinet is a rock star addition for you tons of storage yes and the speakers will do well
Awesome video as always Lidia Rico. I'm glad to see you back posting vlogs again you are such a amazing and beautiful person you're a bright shining light in a sea of darkness sending love and prayers from a friend in South East Georgia USA.
Glad to see you back again this week. Hope you are able to post every week. I will be here watching all your videos! Don't know if it pays much, but have you thought about doing shorts? They might be a way to get more subs. Have a beautiful week! ❤
Love the new van!!! 💕 I think you should just refinish the floor. Just sand it, then stain and seal it or just sand and seal leaving natural color. PS- love your sai 🗡 don't mess! 💪
Lidia!!! It’s so good to see your videos again! Love your VW! You could go with a luxury vinyl plank floor. They come in many styles and are waterproof. Olives are awesome! Much love and safe travels!!!❤
DBC..Daily Blessings Coming! .. Thank You ALL for Everything Everyday!! ... I Can't wait to get a vehicle or a van soon hopefully... I'm Not getting along with my Family members that well so it's Time for Me to be on my own again...
Lidia, you look Marvelous, you bring a smile to my face every time I watch your video's. Massachusetts, USA here....Kisses and Love your video's !!!.....................You Go Girl !!!
I’m just an old man in my late 50’s just trying to help those and support those who need it. I’m also, learning about myself and what has helped me through tough times, I just share that hoping that it will help them.
Happy to SUBSCRIBE to you Lidia🎶 I've been vanlife living for around 28 years. Just take your time doing everything. It's okay. About your floor, maybe just get a carpet cut to fit, then use ut as a bottom rug so it's easy to take out and shake it outside. Then maybe have another fun rug for on top of it. Eeeeeasy!!! Keep everything "simple!" Clean, simple, very organized, and easy... then vanlife will be more fun. Remember ... everything is "okay." Because it is! You're a real sparkle for real🌻 Stay sweet Lidia💥🪻
I have seen one of the most beautiful sunsets in this video but it pales in comparison to your smile. Thank you for taking the time to share part of your life.
@@LidiaRico You are welcome, I feel blessed to see your contagious smile and to be able to share some kind words of love and support for such a beautiful soul.
Awesome to see you back on RUclips Lidia so sorry to hear about the hard times you've been going through much Love and hugs coming your way. Love your videos and the New van looks to be in really good shape. Best wishes 🙏 for all your adventures moving forward in this crazy thing called Life that we all experience on a daily basis. Much LOVE 💓 coming your way.
So good to see you back, you are such an inspiration and a blessing! Praying for your safe travel, joy and healing, and hope you can feel the love from all of us! Aloha!!! ❤❤❤
Welcome back girlfriend missed you. Sorry for your loss. Keep that positive attitude going and everything will be fine. Working on that van will keep you busy and keep your mine clear and open. Cant wait for the next video.😄
I like old VW Westies very much. For the floor, I recommend a vinyl plank if it's available, it's warm for you on cold evenings or mornings and durable. Great that you came back to make videos. You are a refreshing firecracker in the van community. ❤❤❤
Hi Lidia, just found your channel, YT recommended it since I watch a couple other van lifers. Really interesting content, good luck with your travels this year.
Lidia, I'm giving you a big giant HUG right now because you deserve it. I love that you are back and found a cool van to use. I also love that your nunchucks are readily available if you need them! lol Its good to have you back. As someone who has lost more loved ones than he has fingers to count and recently ended a 12 yr relationship with an amazing woman I just have to say you have a purpose and everyone that sees you sees your light so please don't ever loose it. ~Truth~Love~
If the metal below is good, add some poured clear or amber colored epoxy to fill the gaps and smooth the surface. If unknown fill the gaps, smooth the floor and use peel & stick faux hardwood for a fresh look.
Lidia.. so glad you are back I love your fresh new look you've always been an inspiration your channels going to be awesome no one else like you I'm so happy to see you back stay strong my friend❤
Qué bueno Lidia, también me encuentro en pleno downsizing, pasando de una autocaravana de 6.5m a una mini camper 😍. Me alegra verte contenta, poquito a poco, mejor 🤗. Cuídate mucho!
Oh! In the early 90s (when I was younger, and willing to live somewhere without a bathroom!) I lived for a year in a 1968 Westfalia. She was a bit cramped (for 2 people), but she had these amazing red glitter vinyl seats (from a previous owner. I would have never chosen vinyl seats for Texas van living! But they sure were pretty and always made me feel like i was in a 50's diner!) I just loved living in that Westfalia. It's a bit small, but they are easy to work on and generally cheap. I'm very excited for your new adventures! Go, Lidia! 😄
I love olives as well. All of them. Even the green garlic stuffed ones. Makes for a good snack. Even when cooking, Black olives go good with most dishes.
It's good to see you moving forward with your life. I love the new VW Bus. I love olives, too. Be safe, and I'm looking forward to seeing where you take us next. Much love. ❤
