I didn't see a tantrum, I saw a woman who is overwhelmed with the stress of a multitude of issues coming at her all at once - working through your feelings about your mom, being sick, living in a flimsy tent while trying to build out your van w/o an adequate or consistent power supply - any of those alone would be enough to melt down. I'm glad you have some helpers to make it a bit easier. I am loving watching this series on YT, having originally found you on TT. You are very inspiring to me, who is struggling to get my bus built out w/o any help.
@@bunnyandbeyond I did accept help this past summer but turns out, the guy decided since we get along well we obviously must want to have a romantic relationship and started touching me inappropriately so I bid him adieu.
Thank you for keeping it real! You are my new best friend… I travel a lot but don't have a van yet and I have watched so many glamorous videos about women that are apparently journeyman carpenters lol… Thank you for showing me what to expect. I hope I get to see you on the road someday
Good plan is to turn the bed supports on their edge instead of on rhe flat. They will be 3x as strong for more support Have a nice day. Tom up in Canada in the Maritimes at the NB-NS border
Fellow van lifer in West Aus also trying to live and build my van at the same time - thanks for the reality haha it is a CHALLENGE that is for sureeeeeeeeeeeee!
Yay for chris!! So happy hes helping you..sorry i couldnt help more. Anyway it looks good!! I knew it woukd all work out if you got to Q. Man i gotta say i def started crying when you did haha...cuz i KNOW that feeling all too well. Traveling and living in a camper or van can be cool but its not glamorous by any means for most of us. Except for maybe the ones that have alot of money. Anyway...i love how honest you are girl, keep it real and never change. Did you try looking up on youtube about the grounding? Idk i have a bluetti so i just plug mine in...and i have no idea about that but if you dont get an answer lmk i coukd message someone at my campground about it.❤
@@JeffeysMom I would suggest calling bus and van sale companies because they often get vehicles back when companies are ready to replace their older vehicles that still have the lifts in them
Sorry, I’m late for comments, just ran across your video. So, I’m impressed by your determination and realistic adventures living in a van. Your personality is relatable. So basically, I’m a new subscriber. And good luck with the van build, hang in there!
Hi ms. Bunny...Perhaps you already know that Ryobi makes a 12V charger plugs into lighter...I have it and it is awsome...worth the investment. Great video
Hi Bunny! I’m new here this evening on 12/10/24. Sparrow is so precious!! Glad your friend, Chris is such an awesome help to you! I think you said he saved your mental health. Now that’s a true friend! While watching this, I thought you were still at the Q? The video didn’t show you left. I hope all is okay for you? LeeAnn 🌸
That’s not always the best option for everyone’s build, especially when they’re living in it and they need insulation. There’s also the trouble of where you’re going to mount it and without anything to mount it on you can’t really install it.
I was not clear. I did not mean, on the roof. Rather just get the system going. My ,build it 3 times rule. I know money is an issue. I would suggest a ,500 to 1000 ish watt, PURE SINE WAVE. as the modified will damage your Ryobi charger. It will also allow a lot of things to run, better. Clocks keep time, motors run cooler.
Oh look, it’s a man who doesn’t feel comfortable expressing his own emotions, so he projects his disdain for not being able to do so on a wonderfully emotionally intelligent woman who has freedom of expression.
BubbaStaines in a world where some many struggle can't we at least be kind? Learning how to do a build on the fly while living in it is stressful. She's had leaks and problems come up. She's sharing her journey. It's "her" journey. She could do a channel only showing shineshine all the time. That would do us all a disservice if we thought van life was only about traveling and great views. We would only see one prospective. This girl is as real as it gets. Live and let live.
You can use your van as a wind block for your tent if you place them correctly

It’s a longer process than we can ever guess it is - best of luck with your build and accept ANY and all help anyone offers! ❤

I hope that this build will be everything you wanted and you find some peace
Ty 🙏
So true we choose to share our lives, ❤🙏🙏🌻
Deep breath in the sunshine ~ talk to the Ravens they speak back, and sometimes sing ~

Headed down in a few months. Enjoy the sunshine ☀️
And Sparrow singing the song of his people is hilarious! 😂
Wow it’s really coming together Bunny!
Ty for sharing ❤
You’re so welcome! Thanks for watching 😊
My van looked like that for 3 years while I built it out. SO SO SO glad I’m done. Enjoy.
I’ll follow along. 😊
I’d love to see how your build came out! Thanks for the follow 🙏
@@bunnyandbeyondwas a lot of blood sweat and tears. But now it’s my zen

It would be a relief to be in Quartsite. Wow! A lot accomplished!
Wow almost got the bed done 😁 You’ve worked so hard…Chris….thank you for helping our girl!
So glad you got some help! Thank you Chris! 😊

Definitely a challenge but a worthy one ☝️ best of luck with your build and have a blast!
Sparrow is a good boy! 🍖 ❤️

You are always so willing to help out and I appreciate that so much - even if it’s getting answers ❤
I really want a shuttle bus with a lift upfront for my wheelchair. Can’t wait to see what it looks like when you’re done!❤
This one had a lift that the previous owner had taken out - it would’ve been perfect for you
@ that is the problem almost every shuttle bus I look at has had the lift removed and scrapped🥹
@@JeffeysMom I would suggest calling bus and van sale companies because they often get vehicles back when companies are ready to replace their older vehicles that still have the lifts in them
Sorry about your mom. Congratulations on your build progress 🎉
Ty for kind words 🙏

Very first thing would have been the solar

Weren’t the instructions on how to build a tent inside the bag with the handles?
Unfortunately they were not ☹️
Long term...

Goatheads??
You moved in with nature, and then yelled and cursed it out. 👍🏽
I’ve lived with nature forever & sometimes we get a divorce but we always reconcile 🤣
Hello ma'am,

Are you a bot?
I love that you showed the stressful side of Vanlife when you’re doing it all by yourself … 🫶🏻
It’s real, although not always pretty 😜
