I'm watching another amazing video, and you are talking about how good camp fire cooking is, if you ever get a wild hair, I live in Arkansas, and my dad, hands down, can show you campfire and cast iron cooking that will literally blow your socks off!! As an Eagle Scout and growing up with my dad and HIS Westfalia, I have memories on memories of camping and cooking and eating. Maybe a series of some sort. Love the Videos! Jealous as hell!! Be Safe, peace.
I don’t want you to take this the wrong way but I think the first 2/3’s of the video of you just working in silence was absolutely perfect. No commentary needed. Just a man in a harsh environment taking to work. It was so peaceful but the introspective moments spoke for themselves. I enjoyed that very much. Amazing content buddy!
*** DRONE SHOTS **** Hopefully this will help clear up some confusion. :-) I DO NOT HAVE A TEAM OF CAMERA PEOPLE FILMING ME. Here is a BRIEF explanation of how these drone shots are achieved. YES... every single one of these shots is all shot by myself, and only myself.... My DJI Mavic Air is actually GPS guided as most all drones are these days. I drive to a safe spot that I would like to capture. I launch the drone and fly it into position. Because it is GPS guided, the drone holds its elevation and position without me touching the controller. I set the controller down on the passenger seat. Then I drive the van through the scene. Once I have captured the shot I wanted, I fly drone to my new position in a safe parking spot and land the drone. Notice that any drone shot that has the van driving in the shot has very little to no movement? That is because the drone is set and I drive past it while it holds its own position. If you see a shot where it is tracking the van in a shot, the drone has been set to "active track" where it is set to follow a moving subject. I can also set the drone to follow a specific flight path. It is all very simple folks. No need to fret... It is all filmed by myself and I DO NOT have a team of camera people following me. I just needed to clear that up for everyone. Thanks for watching!!!
Sorry. I just cannot take on the responsibility of an animal like that. My life is too chaotic and on the go that I just cannot dedicate the time needed to care for a pet.
avery s I was thinking the exact same thing. Nothing needed to be said and it was very peaceful to watch. When he first said something 25 minutes in, it finally dawned on me he hadn’t said anything yet. Amazing video.
No talking, no music for + 25 min, just a good quality video I LOVE IT !!! Chad you are inspiring me so much to do this, not full time living in a van but winter camping this look just amazing.
I'm a bit suspicious myself! For example, how did he fly a drone whilst drivin over a bridge? I think they're a team, financed into convincing us all that it's great to live in a van! Welcome up-coming poverty with open arms!
@@kbwmetalhead If you listen to David Dubye (adapt2030) he'll tell you that the plethora of these survival videos are all by design, trying to get people prepared for life after the crash. I believe this blogger is Military, ex-Military or a Freemason, paid to do this.
@@suewarman9287 Really? so you have never got a drone to follow you then ? and for the rest if your not happy with Chads channel then don't watch it #GETAGRIP
Chad, nice to see you and the van back in action again! I can't even imagine how long it took you to edit this footage but please know it appreciated and really makes my day when you post. I almost got cold sitting here at home watching the video because I was so deep in it. Love the new fridge by the way. Glad to see you got one!
Am I the only one who loves watching this dude cook and drink!??? His cooking is almost therapeutic and watching him drink you can tell he royally enjoys it. Plus dude has earned that drink!!! 👌👍💪
Just a word of advice for anyone about to watch this video. Don’t watch it when you go to bed. I’m now starving bloody hungry and can’t get to sleep 🤤😩😂
God, i wish i could live like this, get rid of useless, anoying people around me and focus on simple things in life that really matters. No more first world problems!
Yeah. You'd just need that first world van decked out with all those first world accessories paid for with a big bag of first world money. Or, you could just be a bum which is cheaper but less romantic.
I cant even make these meals at my well equipeed kitchen and this guy just make these delicious meals in this snowy weather....... After watching this i m hungry now
I lived in my van and tent for two years in the Mountains of North Carolina. Best two years of my life. When I retire, I'm gonna do the same thing. The only time I felt free.
We’ve lost our way. We need to turn off the TV, stop listening to the media and connect with nature and ourselves. The incredible peace and beauty your videos show is healing for the soul. 10/10 🙏🏻👏
I recently came across your videos and boy oh boy, you’re not only a fantastic adventurer, a very skilled photographer/editor but also an amazing cook! Thank you for being you and sharing your amazing videos with us. 🙌🏼👌🏼
Dude, you crushed this. There was surgical precision in putting that meal together, under those conditions. When you finally sat down and poured a drink, I just laughed and said "you've earned it, man."
This is my kind of man, travel the seven seas, through rugged terrain, cook delicious meals over an open fire that I can’t even cook in my kitchen, in all freezing temperatures. A man’s man😍😍😍😍😍😜
I think after a while, you get it down to a system. I’m sure he gets out there, sets up a bunch of go pros in good spots, let’s them record non stop and then sorts through the footage in between trips. I think maybe the first time it takes some planning and trial and error but he’s a pro film guy with a knack for framing and it seems he doesn’t have any shortage of decent equipment.
Btw the “Alone in the Wilderness” silent treatment was a nice touch. Prefer you talking but once in a while the Dick Proeneke style would be cool to do. It really gives the viewers a sense of the peaceful atmosphere
I just want to say that your videos are a welcome escape from the drab conglomerate of steel and glass that I live in. I love getting away from the city, but my 9-5 job makes it difficult sometimes. These videos help alleviate those feelings and reminds me that there are other ways of life. Cheers. That stew looked fantastic.
I travel solo frequently and find pleasure in stopping to brew my own coffee instead of swinging by Starbucks. First time with Dutch ovens too. I was impressed. Definitely looked like an enjoyable experience. Also I've got to believe that it takes longer to prep a meal on video than it does to just prep a meal.
My favourite You Tuber. You can put an incredible video together and it’s pure magic. You have incredible talent and I always wait for that next video. Enough of the compliments but I want you to know your have the gift and magic when it comes to editing and piecing things together.
This gives the saying “Slaving over a hot stove all day” a whole new meaning lol Love the content don’t kno why you popped up my feed but I’m glad you did
I introduced your channel to my family over the Thanksgiving weekend, and we actually binged about four hours of your videos! Our favorite by far has been the arctic circle trip.
Since I was a kid (I love in Oklahoma) I've always enjoyed snow and winter time even though at best we get a couple inches the years it it does snow. I have to say you are one of the luckiest people alive to be able to live the way you do. In nature without all the noise of the city. I enjoy watching your videos. Look forward to more content. Stay safe man.
In the beginning I nearly started thinking that now we've finally reached the point when B-roll becomes A-roll and vice versa 😅 Thanks for the nice video again mate and keep up the great work you're doing 👍🏼
@@LivingTheVanLife btw. gotta also take my hat off to you because of the awesome lifestyle you're living. Seemingly you're concentrating on the things that matter in life which I think is a rarity these days.
Chad had mentioned in an interview that his goal is to out do himself with each subsequent video. Impossible, I thought - he has already reached amayzing heights- then he does this. He deserves All the accolades!
That place is awesome. I lived there for nine years and spent every spare moment I had in that wilderness. Cooking that bacon and beef rang the dinner bell for every thing with in five miles that is not hibernating! That bread looked awesome! Made me hungry.
Love the drone shots while you are on the road. Not sure how you do that since you appear to be traveling solo. The image quality and general production value are superb.
purewonka sets up the drone for a tracking shot, then stops as soon as he gets the shot, and edits out the part where he parks the car and gets out to grab the drone.
Chad in case your are not aware of this but it is a violation of FAA rules to operate your drone from a moving vehicle. Just don’t want you to get in trouble.
@@lnlyby_yt Okay, I get that, but that would mean he is watching the shot as he drives. Maybe he just sets it and drives for awhile without watching the shot and hopes for the best? Otherwise, he is driving while being distracted by watching his drone shot. Not the best plan on winter roads.
Love the black & white intro , specially the part @1:46 where all the cars are heading one direction and u are driving right into the mouth of the Beast/ Winter Wonderland. Thanks for sharing your journey Chad....! 🙏 Keep on Keeping on Brutha...!
I am used to " hey guys Chad here with Living the Van life up here in Washington" and this is the part where you are mixing the mushrooms and i had to comment. As always i love your videos feel hungry when you cook and cozy when when you are in your van. However this one was all together a real different experience because u didn't say a word, now your food is ready you enjoyed it already. I am gonna enjoy it too. Love your videos man! Cheers ... Holy smokes i thought the video will be mute but you spoke man
You know, when I first started seeing the Solo stove/firepit being advertised on IG, I kind of scoffed at the idea. Now that I've seen you use it twice I am starting to understand the real benefit. Also, thanks for making sweet content - esp love the winter shots.

I still don’t get it LOL.
Didn’t say a word for 25 minutes and I was locked in the entire time man. Incredible quality on these. Love it

I was hooked in to figure out what the hell he was making! The bread took me a while to figure out, as did the stew **laughing**
avery s yeah I love it
same
I know right, talk about talented 😊😀
This man is actually a chef who likes go outdoors sometimes.
Exactly what I commented a few days ago. It's a cooking show from a van. Ha
OR A PERVERT SPENT SO MUCH TIME TO COOK lol
I think so too
No talking, no music for + 25 min, just a good quality video I LOVE IT !!!

The quality of your channel speaks volumes, especially when you can tell a story without words. You are skilled my man.
Cheers Jason! Thanks for watching! Much appreciated!
U r so right
Nu bener wa?
One man, solo, silent, doing his thing. I get it. Silence is golden.
I loved one of his statements "you need to be lost in order to find yourself" ..
He's afraid to loose those youtube sponsors
Same here snow cold fire food. I am sat here in England with a smile on my face
@@haydenarter7505 what do you mean by that dude?

Just a word of advice for anyone about to watch this video. Don’t watch it when you go to bed. I’m now starving bloody hungry and can’t get to sleep 🤤😩😂
same here lol😂
Crazy starving now. That stew....👌
What a meal.
I just eatin something thankyou or the tip💪🏻
Beter prepared💪🏻
You are not alone, God is always with you
I'm sitting here watching this video and I swear I can smell that bread cooking!
Niceee!!!
Had to pause an go cook myself some bacon 😂
Thanks for creating such an immersive experience. The first 25 minutes felt like meditation. Cheers
Literally just watched this man spend 24 hours to bake some bread and cook up some stew 😂 in the middle of a snow storm. The simple things man!
No music! Fantastic! Just the sounds of nature, of human movements, breath, etc. Beautiful, peaceful, and learning experience.
Who else is waiting for him to say ‘hello this is Chad, living the van life’..?
🤫
Just in time 🤣🤣🤦♀️ me too
Honestly if he’s living out of his van and has all his gear & food plus all that gas money, he’s definitely not a peasant lmao
The quality of this video, along with the editing, is incredible!
Love watching these before bed and feeling the amazing vibe and damn the quality of these videos are crazy
I LOVE it! Thanks for watching!
That Beef Stew with the buttered roll looks amazing! I bet it hit the spot
THAT my friend is the best looking stew I have seen. Smells good too.

"get rid of useless, anoying (sic) people ". Yeah, maybe it's you.
Me too!! I'm going to do it but with a bigger rig. I have to get rid of alot of stuff first and build my rig this year
I miss my camper. Lol
Dude, this was so relaxing to watch! And I'm so jealous of your food! It looked delicious 👍 I really like this kind of videos! Great work :)
Thanks for watching!
I don't deserve to watch this for free. Content is top notch
The intro with the weather forecast is so dope, really sets the mood! Masterclass in film making - Great work!
The no speaking was actually working really well. May be my favorite video yet.

Dear sir, I am no expert in cooking itself, however that is an insane amount of effort/work done for a single meal.
Nikhil Singhal You should have seen the amount of effort it took back in the 1700s and before.
That's why they have ramen, hotdogs and chips for some folks 🤷🏻♂️🤦♂️🤙

Baked fresh bread and cooked a gourment meal in this type of weather...amazing
You know, when I first started seeing the Solo stove/firepit being advertised on IG, I kind of scoffed at the idea. Now that I've seen you use it twice I am starting to understand the real benefit. Also, thanks for making sweet content - esp love the winter shots.
Thanks for watching!
