Van Tour Solo Woman Living Cheap in a Minivan

- Today we meet Kelly who had been considering vandwelling for awhile, but was finally pushed over the edge by a Traumatic Brain Injury that left her no choice but to make the leap and live in a Toyota Sienna minivan. It hasn't always been easy for her, but it has been worthwhile. I'm certain we can all find inspiration and guidance in her life and her minivan build!
Here is her RUclips channel

Thanks for watching!
she struggle with brain injury , lost her job but yet had a turn around and changed her life for the best , that is just amazing , she did the best with what happened and what she has, when life gives you lemon make lemonade .
Kelly may mention the “ brain damage” from her awful accident, but obviously it did not damage her creativity or her positive approach to life! This video is a gem and so is KELLY! 👍❤️
As someone who has also suffered a traumatic brain injury in the past, what she is doing is actually really good for your brain. Living a simpler, less-complicated life does wonders to heal the brain.
voiceOreezn i too have a tbi..ive been in my van for a few months..last month my oldest son asked me if i was feeling better..i told him i actually do..i do have other health issues that i think have improved as well..but my thinking doesnt seem to be as muddled..i dont feel so overwhelmed as often..i guess i feel more relaxed..
Cheryl Mongold - I actually spoke to a doctor about that. He said that after a tbi, your brain needs "rest" to heal. Going back to regular life doesn't allow for that rest, but getting out in nature, living simply, and slowing down from the rat race does wonders! It also continues to help as time goes on. It does get better!

Very true. I’m a brain tumor survivor and it’s taken years for my brain to get better. I joke it’s like an old computer slowly rebooting
I recently suffered a car accident and tbi... I stumbled upon this videos and I'm absolutely loving the idea of doing this to my Town and Country... just don't know how I'd make enough money to survive.
I met Kelly at the RTR and what a genuine wonderful person. Watch her channel! thanks Bob
Kelly is an amazing and genuine person. Her videos inform, entertain, and inspire! Thanks Bob!
wandering jimmy Aw, thank you, Jimmy! 😀🐶❤️
I totally agree with Jimmy. Kelly is a breath of fresh air with her humor and can do attitude. Wandering Jimmy has a very entertaining channel as well!
@@kellydoyle Thanks and you actually know so much more than I do about building. Now if I do this I have to get a dog.
just scrolled through the comments and it appears that Kelly wins THE most loved nomad award, also their name, Kelly and Sophie Doyle, is fun to say for some reason lol
I've had Toyotas for almost 20 years best cars ever, have a sienna and 4Runner. Best ever!
Love me some Kelly Doyle! She is a comedian and doesn't know it. Love her sense of humor
I love Kelly Doyle and Sophie Doyle. Thank you Bob!
carra coleman ❤️
Well done. Her van looks roomier inside than similar others I’ve seen. And she even has included a fridge and potty and have it still feel roomy.
Lindy Lund Thank you, Lindy! Yes, and a kitchen sink!
She has a great sense of humor, after the dog I'm running out with the porta potty lol. So funny. Janice
I like the way she used an aluminium strip to create a curtain track.
That's one of the best easy small van builds I've seen .
Thanks, Bob, for featuring Kelly Doyle. She is a fantastic woman with an amazing attitude. Love her and Sophie Doyle.
Have you healed? Praying for your continued healing!
Thank you for featuring Kelly and Sophie Doyle. She proves anyone can do this. Don’t let your limitations hold you back. I am one of her subscribers. She’s an amazing lady. Wonderful sense of humor.

I love Kelly & Sophie Doyle❣
It's always nice to see a person who even with hard choices and not much hands on experience in building can confidently move forward and be comfortable in doing so. Thanks to both of you for sharing this with us.
I like her set up! Lots of thought went into it! Loved seeing the doggie in the background!
I am so glad that Kelly found joy in her tough circumstances and stay positive. Respect.
Tak Cheng Sze Thank you, Tak!

I have subscribed to Kelly Doyle's channel.
Yay, Kelly Doyle! Thanks, Bob.
Amazing build, love the aluminum idea for stealth curtains, thank you and good luck :)
You're right Kelly, it's called a bird bath. Sponge bath is the term used when taking a bath in bed. Very smart and resourceful lady, glad she was featured in someone's video. Hope only the best for Kelly.....
my mom called it a PTA bath...
Terri Papatheodore that’s what we call it too. Lol
I have never heard of a sponge bath in bed!
@@nightlightabcd A bedridden Patient or someone that had surgery would be bathed in their bed

flaviln Thank you, flavin! I was just preparing to do my van tour!
The lady who has a traumatic brain injury but she has the best vanlofe video I've seen yet in terms of adding creature comforts to a really simple build. Go Kelly!
It’s so good to see how quickly you can put something together to get on the road and not have to spend a pile of money. I may be faced with this at some point and I’m just loving gathering info from your channel so I’m not in a panic when the time comes. You help so many people ( me for one ) to not be scared and to know it can be done and you don’t have to be Carpender or mechanic to do it . Thank you so much for caring!! 😊
Great video. We have to meet up on the road, Kelly. Nice build!
Vansion. Living Thank you, Vansion! Come say hello anytime!

ROFL, first the dog and then the portapotty - that's a fine emergency priority list which I can absolutely understand ;-)
Else: Very clever, simple and easy way to have a comfortable van life! Congrats and tnx 4 sharing!
