I use to use rechargeable hand warmers. Charge them in the library put them under your blanket with you. Hand warmers you don't charge are cheap put them in your socks and gloves.
I saw a RUclipsr make a kind of pup tent over her bed. Her name is modern day pilgrim. So your body heat is contained within that area. Go to the thrift store grab an old sleeping bag or heavy blanket and give it a try.
I think I saw her channel or one similar. They literally took a rope and put it across where they slept then draped a blanket over the rope. I completely forgot about this until I saw your comment. I was thinking a tent but this is a cheaper option.
Consider recycling cans and plastic bottles to fill up your tank. Also get a bag of potatos, onions, bell peppers and make smothered potatos, that will fill you up over those noodles. Consider instant grits with butter too.
This channel is going to blow up like I said in the last comments because we're seeing from the beginning of Van life what it's like to try to get started you're freezing cold at night you're eating ramen noodles soup and so this channel is going to be so cool to watch grow because we're here from the beginning if you do a video everyday the algorithm will push it anyway I'm really liking this channel
Maybe he don’t know how or where to get it for his windows or to make it for his windows I’m looking it up now because I’m trying to figure out how you get reflective and stuff like that for the windows. I didn’t know that you can make them I’m researching now.
Best believe bro, you will look back at these moments as important. I’ve been where you’re at. Not exactly the same way but I have a roof over my head now. It will be worth it in the long run. A tip, layer up on nights you know it’s going to be cold and cover your face as well. I noticed if I left my face exposed, it made it uncomfortably cold overnight.
You have the most beautiful smile! You will do so well here on RUclips. I am sure that between us all we can make your life on the road much easier. I am subscribed for the foreseeable future hippy! Stay safe and warm xx
I’m in the health care field. I was just wondering if you know about local food banks in your area? That’s a great resource to get food. Do you have a library card? If not I suggest you get one so that you can utilize their computers to job hunt and for other purposes. Churches in your area may also be willing to help you out until you get a job.
Exactly I was thinking of this he needs to look for food pantries too. People leave food in them for anyone in need. There are also free retail stores that will give free clothes and supplies out. No need to suffer, everyone needs help sometimes, especially now.
I feel bad for people in these situations But if i was in that predicament I'd get heading south at least until spring You have to think about your health and wellbeing You'll end up very sick sooner or later
Just found your channel. Just subscribed. I enjoyed this one. I'm now going to watch all your videos. 😀 I agree with the other post here. Get you a roll of reflectix and make window covers. You will see a difference.
I was just doing the same thing in Northern Colorado. I don't think yall truly understand how tough this is. It's pure hellish for sure ..I had three sleeping bags to sleep under and one huge wool blanket. Buddy heater for the morning once up out of the blankets. Still it's no joke even with the appropriate gear like I have. I don't see how this dude is doing it. He's tough as nails. No this.
You will probably have to buy a pack of "hot hands & body warmers" as well as an electric blanket that plugs into lighter. Also, invest in a Jackery or Bluetti that you can recharge using solar panels or plug up at the nearest coffee shop.
I've been doing what you're doing since 2019. I make a mylar tent over my bed (emergency blankets) keeps the heat in and doesn't make you sweat profusely like when you wrap yourself in it. Also, lighting candles did help too, didn't heat entire van up but it cut the cold. You can do the same with Sternos but be careful with that flame. Good luck and much love from NYC 🙂
Just came from near where you’re at. Moving my daughter from Chicago to California. You’ve got to be so cold. Stay inside and cuddle up in your blankets.
Hi Hippi, please, please go and thrift some warm blankets and a sleeping bag. That bitter cold will make you ill and that's never fun! Look after yourself and be happy! 🤗✌️
Try putting reflex under the rug, under the mattress pad, on all windows and on the ceiling. I think you are loosing a lot of heat. Also, please ask the churches for blankets warm clothing, food and help. Fire stations may be able to help. I would consider asking hotels for a blanket. All they can say is yes or no. If you don’t ask, they won’t give.
Is your Mr Buddy Heater still working? If you keep a window slightly cracked it should stop turning off in the night. You need a heat source inside to keep you warm. Please let us know if you need more propane or anything for it.
Many people are right about the Reflectix and "survival " casualty blanket. They can be so effective, you'll start sweating which is not good but you can adjust them to avoid them. God bless you sir.
If you want your van to heat up faster get some cardboard and place it front of your radiator to block the cold air from coming into your radiator, also I noticed that you don't have anything/insulation covering your roof on the inside, those reflextives will help but really you need those foam boards and you can either use spray adhesitives or thin metal slants to hold them in place.
Mr Buddy heater. Or block off the front of your van with a blanket. And cover all your windows. About 20 votive candles (not tealights) or a bunch of bigger candles will warm up the van. Can not sleep with candles going of course. I'm a full time nomad started in a van but now in a hatchback small car. Been full time for 13 years. You can also get a single burner camp stove and use that to heat BUT what ever flame is burning you MUST keep a window cracked a few inches or you will have carbon monoxide poisoning. Good luck and stay safe❤
I know so many comments but I can’t wait till you can get a jackery or bluetti so you can run an electric blanket and other electrical things. Go to the dollar tree and get some puck lights at mini light strings -battery operated so you can have some cheap inside light. You’re wearing rx glasses so you need the light. Blessings Hippi. Love your vlogs
Stay safe out there, the next few days are gonna be cold. Your content seems real, and alot of van life channels dont show the reals of it. Finding a shelter for a bit would not lessen what you do. Most towns have staffing agencies that may help the work search..stay safe, try not to freeze!

Hey man I was in a 2003 ford 250 cargo van bare bones and it was me and my dog! We had some cold nights but the dog cuddling with me helped a lot and buddy heater! T was. Along hard road but we got out of it
I used to live in the northeast and I was laid off 8 times. Make a long story short, I moved south and the temp is more tolerable. One of the best decisions I have made. We have lots of jobs and they do not require any college education. I wish you the best.
Hello, when you can get a regular propane canister with the hose to connect and then refill it when it is empty....I don't remember how long it last....but that worked for me...when I was camping...just make sure you have enough air flowing through...hope things align for you soon.....blessings.
Kerosene heater from menards or lowes and a 2 gallon jug will last 2 days on low. Kerosene is the only heat that will overcome the cold inside. Kerosene gives off less vapor than lp propane. Insulation on the windows. Co2 detection to.
Hi, you just popped up on my screen. Love watching others like myself figure out alternative living situations!! Cool stuff and I got my laptop to edit and I still have to delete all my previous videos before editing 😭😭 but yeah the laptop makes it so much easier to edit.
What city and or where are you living right now, just curious because of the snow in the cold I could do some research and find you some places that you could pick up what you need very inexpensively
Also if there is any goodwill, Christian Missions/ service centers, and flea markets in your area. Those are great resources to sometimes find items to use in your van while on a tight budget. I frequently shop those places and find items for camping.
Well for many people it only takes a brief period of unemployment. Without savings or a personal network for support, won't take long to run out of money. He's fortunate that he's already hit the 1k subscriber minimum. Now he needs the watch hours to qualify for RUclips partnership. Potentially a decent side hustle for him.
hes got a full size van. Lots dont have that.. his possibilities are endless. Land a part time job. Use thrift stores ,food pantries. Be simple to get what you need fast. Churches, thrift stores give blankets away. Or super cheap. Layers. Plus you can slowly move around as you wish. To better climates. Truck stops ,fast food hires super easy. You have freedom! Keep at it youll have it better soon enough. Dont count on yt. Thats a side hustle.but you'll find disappointment if you think thatll be all you need.
what is wrong with people 😭 the guy needs to breathe... i don't get people being condescending, nitpicky and mean. like we get it, youve been through some hard times too, but it doesn't mean you know better and get to boss him around after watching him for ten seconds. especially not with some petty survival fact that worked for you once in a specific situation.
Nobody is being mean and nitpicking at anything, if we see something where common sense should've been used we're gonna say something about it in hopes of maybe next time he won't do that. Nothing is wrong with a little constructive. criticism
@jacquelinea8719 you need to chill out! Maybe its not worth watching this channel and should unsubscribe if someone is going to ball us out. One little statement about keeping the door open certainly didn't merit your over blown response. I like this kid and support him by subscribing. Not if you are going to react like that tho. You tell me. I think your response was an over reaction.
God bless you doing this difficult time, I live in Kansas City Missouri and she got hit card. I’ve missed 2 days of work due to weather. I hope things get better for you, get gas and some food somehow, the necessary things u need. Thrift stores definitely have a lot of things that would help you, blanket, boots gloves in this weather. Stay to stay warm prayers to you brother 😘
thought you got a propane mr. buddy for in there....... they are great 1rst thing in the morning or for quick heat when needed.......... but not to thrifty if you run them all the time unless your using a 20lb BBQ tank.......its been my savior up here in New England !!
@@allisonthomas8099 I very much doubt he will die from Carbon monoxide using a buddy heater in the van......in fact running one would have a hard time setting off a carbon monoxide detector....they also have an oxygen sensor on them ....proven ...tested ...1rst hand
Try getting some wool blankets and hang them around and make a mini tent inside or get a jackery type battery bank and a heated blanket they don't draw alot of power
Diesel heaters are getting better in quality also. But need a solid installation. Good luck but you need to go south for the winter untill you can learn the way a little better. Walmart has 18 hour hand warmers that work great.
Get yourself a small pup 🎉tent put over your bed. Your breath and body heat will help keep you warm. Do you have a portable solar power pack? Get a electric blanket. Use tea lights with clay pot with hole in bottom over the tea light. This will get the pot hot and heat a little bit .
Realty check it time to head back home to warmer climate… you can come back to see your kids but this time prepared yourself before returning to the cold climate.. A really big snow storm is heading your way. Don’t ignore the advice that is given it’s for your survival
Until you can get a mini diesel heater i would get a buddy heater and a propane tank to keep warm for cheap. Insulate your van this summer my guy. Check your local town dumps for foam board too depending on your state.
I agree you need to head to FLORIDA... THE SUNSHINE STATE 😎🌅... AT least u can warm up with the sunshine ... unless u have a good diesel heater or ideally a nice little log burner then its got to be too cold to luve there with the snow outside xx🤔❤❤
Get a Mr. Buddy heater that hooks up to a propane tank it cost about 20 bucks to fill it, but you MUST HAVE THE WINDOW CRACKED ABOUT AN INCHE, so the fumes do NOT unalive you in your sleep. Also, a CO2 monitor helps alot, because it beeps when CO2 is too high.
Question from Australia. Why aren't U using the buddy heater ..are you out of gas? You could make your van warmer. Love watching you...give us a q and a ❤

I hope you can link up and help in any way 🥹
Why would u get out and leave the door open if u want it to be warm inside
You NEED to make refleticks covers for ALL IF YOUR WINDOWS DUDE! YOUR losing any heat you got thru the windows. And separate the front from the back!
Yes! Please cover all of the windows. You can even remove them during the daytime, but but them up at night.
If you don’t have window covers you can use blankets over the windows to keep them heat inside
You can use it for the ceiling also for insulation to hold in heat
Maybe he don’t know how or where to get it for his windows or to make it for his windows I’m looking it up now because I’m trying to figure out how you get reflective and stuff like that for the windows. I didn’t know that you can make them I’m researching now.
Clear plastic over the window just like in a house helps a lot

You have to think about your health and wellbeing
You'll end up very sick sooner or later
Get a 20# cylinder they're only about 20$ at most gas stations
Itll last you several days
Much cheaper than idling your van

One thing I will say about you is you show everything about living in a van in Michigan. You are as real as it get.
Right on! That's why I subbed!😊
A zero degree sleeping bag will keep you warm. Not sure how much it would cost though.

@jaieatsplants it does but the propane canisters run out in 3 hrs
Go to the pantry or churches, they will help with food. Look them up in your area
I agree you need to head to FLORIDA... THE SUNSHINE STATE 😎🌅... AT least u can warm up with the sunshine ... unless u have a good diesel heater or ideally a nice little log burner then its got to be too cold to luve there with the snow outside xx🤔❤❤
I think he wants to be near his kids
Also, he'd need to fill his tank a few times, pay tolls, etc.
@@cyndeelou-i1eWow he has kids 😳
He has kids he visits. It's in his earlier videos.
Get a Mr. Buddy heater that hooks up to a propane tank it cost about 20 bucks to fill it, but you MUST HAVE THE WINDOW CRACKED ABOUT AN INCHE, so the fumes do NOT unalive you in your sleep. Also, a CO2 monitor helps alot, because it beeps when CO2 is too high.
He's already got one just no propane and no CO/CO2 detectors
Question from Australia. Why aren't U using the buddy heater ..are you out of gas? You could make your van warmer. Love watching you...give us a q and a ❤
@@janeforbes3060 He out of the propane he bought.
What city you located in? If you don’t mind me asking
don't forget a carbon dioxide detector and fire extinguisher.
Where do your kids live if you live in a van?
You could do Walmart deliveries. You know your tip before you leave the store.
Hippi, are you able to register on any of the delivery apps? I know the age of your vehicle may be an issue, but this may be an option.
What’s the temperature 16 degrees
Maybe you can use the free computers in the library for now ❤
He needs to update his Amazon wish list for things he needs to survive the winter 🥶 gas cards /propane
I couldn’t find his Amazon wish list ..How do I do that
Yeah, he's thinking about this from a wrong perspective. Fuel, propane, butane, and food should be top priority
@pamelarubio9372 there are no gas cards on amazon.
He needs a job.The speedway that he goes to get gas,is hiring.
I just posted that too, but I just happened to see this video after watching Winterisblu
This may be a question that you have been asked a bunch, but, where are you located?
