I feel like the spotlight of the video was stolen by how sweet the couple are 😁, I absolutely love their attitude towards picking up their campsites to be cleaner than when they got there 🤘
Thank you for your kind comment, if everybody just filled a little bag, it would make a huge difference to our environment 😊so it's our way of helping, 😊
That's actually nothing special. Most vanlifers are living that credo. Leave no trace. Leave every camp better than you found it.
@@orcaflotta7867 van lifers get such a bad reputation for leaving rubbish when in our experience it's usually day trippers who leave their rubbish behind more, all our van life friends are conscious of leaving their camping spots clean and tidy
I love this couple! The van really reflects their personalities and it's wonderful to see people not leaving an ugly environmental footprint when they camp.
Gorgeous beautiful adorable! That is so unusual, I love how different it is, the two tone paint (lol, rhubarb & lemon custard!), The corrugated bits on the outside. It's fantastic, you did such a great job, going to watch the video again.
Thank you for your positivity 😊
The before pic on the thumbnail totally looks like the truck in the movie Jeepers Creepers , lol! I love it!
Loved watching them do things in unison...
Just driving this fantastic van up and down the roads and streets makes the world a happier place...definitely puts a smile on everybody's face...this video put a smile on my face. Thanks and Cheers.
I love how they’re laughing and enjoying each other’s company even while picking up trash! What a lovely couple, bless their hearts 💕
My greetings to the charming couple. The world will be a much better place with more people like them.
Thank you for your kind comment, that's a beautiful thing to say🙏😊
We just saw your van parked up and goggled it! Amazing, absolutely love it!! Our hymer, parked up the road is 30 years old. Love the old timers xx
Absolutely well beyond FANTASTIC!!!!
Way to hang in there on that Citroen panel truck Andy and Jacqui. Nice seeing vans not of the normal sort.
What a beautifully simple life. Not disturbing mother earth, leaving it cleaner. Having coffee out of the back door is amazing and priceless!
My plan is getting where you are. My retirement has just begun! Haha!
Congratulations on your retirement, have a wonderful time 😊
Great way of living.
As a french guy, I am always envious, nostalgic and grateful to see people restoring this vans. Or Ds, a 2cv, Elena, caterelle,... .
A brief story...
In my youth, 10 years old or so, my football coach who was also a builder, would drive the team of to matches, sat at the back on ciment bags with a bucket of lemonade for after the match. In the same van that you see on this video.
Thank you to this lovely couple.
Great memories!
What a delightful story, thank you for sharing it, we absolutely love our van, not only for how beautiful it is but also for people's stories of them from times gone by 😊
Oh my God. This van is older than me !!! You people are lovely 💕 enough that you restored this historical vehicle. Lovly couple, awesome couple, my all respect to you Sir and Madam. Stay like this stay safe 💖
Thank you😊
Leave things better than you found them........what a great way to go through life.
Absolutely adore the two of you. Here's to you having many more happy adventures in your fantastic van!!
Thanks so much, for your lovely comment 🙂
It’s great that you pick up trash left by others.... More people should do that too.. Actually everyone should clean up after themselves... Nice conversion!!!! Cute vehicle
No laptops, or electronics..........Sounds like the most tranquil way of life.
Yep, disconnecting can be so freeing sometimes!
Beautiful van and what a lovely couple you are. Love your way of thanking the world for being allowed to camp for free. If only everyone else would do the same what a wonderful world we would have.
Thank you for your kind words, we are so overwhelmed by everyone's positivity towards us, and our van, 😊
Book marked to watch later with husband - this is wonderful!
Glad you got back to building out the van, it turned out great!
We are currently making the changes we talked about in the video, but we love our van so much, and are forever grateful to have found it😊
You are delightful...they wave when we go by...sometimes twice because we're lost. Have to tell you my sides are sore from that laugh. Enjoy your journey. Your van is charming
Thank you so much for your lovely comments they made us smile 😊
Yes, lovely people indeed, my neighbours in Portugal… Good positive people ❤️❤️❤️
Really love people who fix up a normally forgotten vehicle and make it look classic!
Thanks, we tried to be sympathetic to the age of the van and restored it with lots of love 😊
What a lovely couple! Love their jovial disposition and thoughtful way of moving through the world.
My parents had a Renault Estafette when I was young - and my mother had to fend off the same "chips?" enquiries... lol
This is really brilliant, so well done. One of the very best conversions I've seen. I love the revival of the old Citroen. Love that you do without the electronics.
Wow, you did have a litter pick, didn’t you?! That’s a lot of trash. Good for you! And nice vehicle too. We ❤️ it!
Thank you 😊
Another gem, both the van sand the owners. I fell in love with the 2CV years ago, don't have one because of my lifestyle, but one day maybe. There's an active club of them in Adelaide, South Australia☺ Happy travels👍
Thank you, yes we love 2cvs too 😍
@Allegro Sotto The 2CV Sahara is a twin engined, 4WD version. Designed for French officers serving in North Africa. It can easily travers sand dunes in the Sahara, and has unrivaled abilities off road.
What a lovely couple! Very unique camper.
Lovely couple. Love this ❤️ outstanding van camper. It is full of character & old style charm...like you 2 sweeties. Safe & extraordinary travels.
Thanks so much for your kind comments and positivity xx

Unique van. It's beautiful.
Have had Total AV for a year now & it's great. Never knew about it before then saw an ad about it & read all about it & is great. I recommend it to everyone. Excellent product for the Lap Top for me. :-)
I'm all smiles with this video. All good vibes 😊😊😊
Top job. I’ll never know how much hard work the conversion was. Top quality video, so well presented, I was smiling throughout 😄

Hello, félicitation restauration HY, good job.
Merci 😊
Absolutely darling, travel well!
You guys are great. Trying to get the wife on board with van life. Great job you two. Love it.
Keep trying, it's the best thing we ever did, I'm sure she will love it 😊
Just love the uniqueness of this van. Never seen one before especially over here in Canada. It’s a van that stands out in a crowd, that’s for sure. Do they come in a longer wheelbase for more interior room?
They do indeed and they come with more headroom too, citroen h or hy vans they are called 😊
Nice van, seen it drive past yesterday in New Brighton. Looks great. 👍
Hi from the Wirral, hope you had a good day in New Brighton 😁
Ohhhh my love you two. Love the concept of leaving a place better than you found it! You have great ethic's, would love to be completely surrounded by people like you!!!
I'm mad about your camper, love that you painted the van, very vintage colors. Am crazy about the back bench seat, and how it converts to a breakfast table! Best of luck!
Thanks for your kind comments 😊yes that backseat has given us so much joy, great to sit at, at the beach watching the sunset😍
The van is wonderful! I'm inspired to try and find one here in the US. Love what you do about the trash; I dispise littering.
Adorable RV!
I have seen the van driving around the wirral lately, i love it
Hi from the Wirral 😊
Remind me holidays in france as a child
Such a beautiful couple.. love them xx..
Thank you that's so kind of you to say 😊
Cheer from Thailand.
Lovely couple.
Sweet people, love the video.
Thank you, we really loved doing it 😊
What a lovely van and what a lovely, loving couple! So many details that show they have a great marriage, heartwarming to see, thank you!
Thank you 😊
Thanks for sharing. I LOVE THAT TRUCK! Hard to get in the States... I have seen a few in Europe as coffee trucks. Be safe.
There are lots of them used as food trucks in UK 😏
I was in Liverpool staying with our daughter i seen your camper at your garage magic fantastic job nearly stop but the wife thought I was mad
You should have, everybody else does!! Takes us hours to get anywhere 😂
I've been looking everywhere for one of these vans to convert into a camper and they are all so expensive, I would love to do this one day

The BMW wheels don't pair well with the restored H van. Otherwise the restored H van look amazing! Respect for that!

That's interesting to know thank you 😊

Good people.
Well done, thank you for saving the Citroen Van! The kitchen area is a bit too large and the bed too small.
We are currently refurbishing the layout of the van to give us a larger bed 😊
