We're excited to start sharing different ways YOU can make money and travel full-time too! Drop your questions about working online, from a van, or van life job questions below! We'll be making a video in the next couple of weeks to help you hit the road :)
What do you think is the cheapest way to boost your internet signal while on the road? How much solar do you need to work without feeling as if you might run out of power? I was thinking of getting 200 watts and using that to charge my Bluetti battery while I'm working, but the solar/electrical components are what confuses the shit out of me the most. I already purchased the battery to use, but have other ways to charge it before purchasing the solar. How often do you work at your gigs that aren't RUclips? What is the RUclips other work balance like? Do people often use apps for odd jobs in the area? I've heard of these, but never known anyone to use then. Are there websites we can try that are similar to Indeed but offer positions that are only fully remote? Considering most employers only look at the bottom line and not the people who work for them, would you say that working remotely might add the issue of the employer asking too much from you or firing you more easily because they haven't met you in person so you are just a statistic? How difficult is it to find remote jobs with decent insurance/benefits (paid time off for instance)? Do you think it might be easier to look into international companies if we want to be treated like a person? What did you want to be when you grew up? What do you want to be now? No one dropped any questions yet so here are some that have been on my mind. Sorry some of them are a bit pessimistic. I may or may not have a bit one sided view on how employment is done in America. I hope your day is beautiful.
@@TheShauNanigans my wife and I use our laptops ALL the time. They use a lot of power when plugged in all day. But if there’s good solar power happening it will sustain us all day and even charge the batteries at the same time. But when it cloudy we could potentially drain our battery in 1-2 days with two laptops plugged in all day. Solar: 525 watts (3 panels @ 175 each) Inverter: 2,000 watts sine wave Batteries: 600 amp hours (4 batteries @ 150 each) AGM not Lithium. With AGM you only can use half of the amo hours so we really only have 300 working amp hours. With lithium batteries you can drain them to empty like a laptop or cell phone. So if you have 600 ah lithium, you actually have 600 working amp hours. But that would cost you about $6,000. We definitely want to upgrade to Lithium as soon as we can whether it’s for this van or for the next one we build.
Thank you for sharing your income sources, most people seem to be a bit cagey about it, but this is really helpful. Looking forward to the next one 😀 Also just want to say how genuine you two seem, which is really refreshing 😊
I can't wait for that video, being I don't have the financial stability to get a vehicle to live in full time on the road that's where I'm starting....money and saving. Once I can save up I'm getting a bus or something big enough for my family to live in full time hopefully by then my plan is to be making a small income to travel with n still get a little ahead. I really want this so it gives me motivation to work towards it which is where I believe it has to start (doing what u want n what makes u happy).
Hi. Love. It. as a married couple it’s a blessing that You were able to find each other and learn to live together peacefully to enjoy your lifestyle. Amen !
Thanks LaRenda 🙂 let us know if you have any specific questions! We’re working on a pretty robust video for it because we want it to be as helpful as possible.
I knew immediately when this-channel started and I have sub since the beginning. That this channels was way different than the others. I really love you guys and you’re vibe you are very genuine and it comes through the screen that way. That’s a gift that many people don’t possess. Thank you again I will be watching
Thank you! And thanks for asking :) I am just in the midst of re-doing my website and will be sharing more soon. I have a VERY old youtube account you can check out. I do plan on using it in the future as I re-brand. You can check it out here: ruclips.net/user/colormekale. I will tag you this next month when everything is complete with the new site!
He looks much older than her....He is the one who press all the Buttons. Sound of music career.... You reverse...... Wow, what you have alot of knowledge together.
Very informative! You both have found things that you are passionate about to earn a living. Keep following your dreams. Wishing you enormous success!!❤️
Super excited to hear some options. I watched another one and they listed a bunch of small ways to help supplement but not really anything that would be consistent and enough to sustain living on the road.
Looking forward to your next vid. I really, really want to get on the road before I can’t. Holy moly. I’ve been in the film industry working with food for 30 years. I make sterling jewelry and I watercolor. Surely there is something I can do from the road. Here’s to your next share!
You DEFINITELY have some great options! Do you film yourself, edit, or ? Tell me more. I (crystal) LOVE talking biz and getting creative with options 🤓
Eagerly waiting for ur next video. U guys r an absolutely amazing, down-to-earth couple who I adore. I follow several van lifers and I find that u two r my favorite. What u see is what u get, no pretentiousness ( if that’s a word) lol. Stay humble and true and you’ll earn a great following. I actually can’t believe u don’t have hundreds of thousands of followers, but I think someday u will. Ur van is beautiful and if I had a van, I’d want it to resemble yours. My favorite is all the wood you’ve used in ur build. I love ❤️ rustic dwellings also. Be safe and we’ll b anxiously waiting to hear from u two soon!! ❤️❤️😊😊
I soo love this channel. I am a home based worker since this Pandemic and it made me really sick being just Home (work and rest day in same room) and I found you guys as an outlet of my rest time and thanks for the informative and relaxing videos. I finally found a new favorite RUclips channel. And oh, I find you guys so beautiful couple. Keep filming! God bless and Much love! ~watching from Philippines (My first time leaving a comment lol)
How exciting You are both Amazing!! Its a Big eye opener as to how far you can take things. And that it is definitely do able! God bless and keep you both.💜 Thank you.

Thank you so much for this video. I am definitely looking forward to any tips you may have for starting to work from home. I already do for work, but they will make us go back into the office soon and I don't want to. I already bought and started building out Jean Claude Damn Vann and my goal is to travel a couple weeks and have a home base a couple weeks. I already showed for a year and a half that I don't need to be there to do my job successfully, and I have transferable skills to other similar online businesses. It's just a matter of knowing where to look. Hence how I found this channel and your video. I really appreciate all of the tips you've already provided. You both are fun and interesting to watch. I also wonder if Brian traveled with Third Eye Blind to Amsterdam in 2018. If so I was definitely there. The touring gig sounds super unique but and I hope he has the opportunity to get back to it soon (if he wishes to). Safe travels.
You guys are awesome. ❤❤❤ I am a prayer warrior and you two are definitely in my book. Your Love and passion for what you do is incredible, may my Lord God of the Universe, Bless you abundantly, and continues to guide your paths. Stay safe. 🍃Love Life🍃
You two are amazing! Love following your adventures! One question...when Brian's touring starts up again, will you be following where the bands go in your van?
@@vanhallaadventures Over the past few years I have been trying to switch over to a more natural lifestyle. Changing the things I use on my body, clean my house with and the medicines I take. I think if anyone could make a video helping people transition into an all natural lifestyle it would be you Crystal. Beginner steps to take, companies that support this lifestyle and maybe communities online. I loved the Tea recipe. I think so many people look at food health as just a weight loss tool. I love that it had changed your life and your health. I want it to be more to me than just connected to "weight".. I sometimes feel overwhelmed with the choices and lost as to where to begin. I am going good and super proud of my progress but would love to hear anything more you are willing to share and natural foods/herbs and medicines. xxxx
Ce serait " Wonderfull " si je savais comment traduire en français vos paroles ! Il y a certaines recettes ( cuisine !!) que l'on peut traduire . J'ai regardé et je ne trouve pas chez vous , pouvez-vous mettre la possibilité de traduire en français ?
I just stumbled on your channel and I love it! Have you heard of Ménière's disease? I’m asking for my wife but interested in the herbal/holistic approach for her.
@@vanhallaadventures, In approximately 1995, we were in an electronic-music class together, and Brian lent me his Alesis SR-16 drum machine so I could make my first-ever hip-hop beat, which I realized on one of those Akai hard-disk recorders in the audio booths in what’s now called the CBI building at DCC when I wasn’t working on those “serious” pieces for the class, which was so new that it was called MUS 909. He also held down that Roland keyboard in the big studio on the same floor for 10 minutes for me so I could record the droning bed of the piece in which we were given a painting (in this case Mark Rothko) to interpret through sound and text, and was one of the people who played the hand bells on another piece of mine-and what Brian did by himself with that Roland keyboard was so incredible that he should’ve been signed on the spot by one of those new-age labels. I still have the T-shirt that I won at the end of the semester and always wear it for luck when I start an important new creative venture. Now that I’m in a band and making music semi-professionally, I’ve never forgotten, and I’m forever grateful for the help that got me started! Peace.

RUclips is definitely an investment. Having a backlog of videos is one of the more important parts of a sustainable long RUclips career.
I’m on board! lol. I see your vision and can’t wait to see how it transpires :)
