  • In this van life vlog, I go camping with Diane from the RUclips channel Diane Schmiane! We give a quick rig tour for the vehicles (car and minivan) that we live in, taste local beer, and discuss how we starting vehicle life. Living in a vehicle can be a new thing for a lot of people, but everyone starts somewhere!

    What is Road Trip Brew-S-A?
    To challenge myself and live life to the fullest, I am trying to reach all 50 US states while living in my minivan. In each state, I will
    •go on an outdoor adventure
    •get involved in a good cause
    •drink a local beer
    What is Beer in Beautiful Places?
    Hi, I’m Maddie! Celebrating an outdoor adventure with a beer has been a long-time tradition for me, and I wanted to create a platform for like-minded folks to come together. In my videos, I cover all types of adventures and review beer! Topics include day hiking, kayaking, travel, thru-hiking, and life on the road. In short, if you would describe yourself as an outdoorist, outdoorsman, outdoorswoman, hiker trash, nomad, or dirtbag, come on along, this is the channel for you! Welcome and cheers!

    Maddie, it was such a pleasure meeting you and hanging out with beer by the fire... You are an inspiration to so many others looking to live their best life, and I admire you for following your heart with such authenticity. Keep on adventuring, I'll be watching... ❤

    Nearly 30 years ago Chris Farley's motivational speaker character, Matt Foley, debuted on Saturday Night Live where he first used the example of living in a, "VAN, DOWN BY THE RIVER!", as an example of the negative consequence of bad life choices. Fast forward three decades and living in a van down by the river is a coveted goal for many that their supposedly good life choices hold them back from.
    A good collaboration there, Maddie. And thanks to Diane for being game to participate.

    That was fun to watch...two women, of different ages, who have so much in common. just goes to show, just because we get older doesn't mean we stop having dreams of adventure, or that we lose touch ....and it's nice to see a younger person open to a fun experience with someone who is a little older...I think we can learn so much by being more open about our freindships...looked like you had a blast...love the last segment when youn were bundled up next to the fire...I always love fires when camping...especially when the company is good.

    Newly Updated Safety Suggestions;
    I just happened to see your channel, and others similar channels recently, and I think that you, and others sharing their actual reality, and some have expressed some of the up, and down sides to van, RV, or vehicle living.
    I believe that it is very helpful, and beneficial to others who may be thinking about this type of living without actually thinking through, about the some of the realistic problems that could occur with vehicle or van living etc...
    People need to know what up sides there are, as well as some of the down sides of vehicle living.
    I believe this channel, and other channels have been informative to others, including myself.
    Although, I am NOT living in a vehicle or anything like this.
    I feel that you , and others RUclipsrs sharing this with your viewers will be very helpful.
    I wish you ALL the Best with your traveling endeavors.
    I shared this with another traveler as I watched their RUclips channel for the first time, as yours, and I shared with them this information that may be helpful to you as well to others.
    Therefore, I would also like to suggest a few Safety tips, and items that may help you, or others in your viewing audience.
    Although, you may have knowledge of this already,
    I am not sure, so I hope this will be helpful to you, others or someone.
    *Keep a Extra working cellphone with you or in your vehicle.
    You can purchase inexpensive phone with a very low monthly price between 25, 35, 45, dollars a month with unlimited data and text, and some have Nationwide coverage
    Do your research for the best fit for you
    Carry Several Extra portable phone chargers, and cables.
    Consider theses items:
    *Mini portable power charging station.
    I have also seen outdoor portable solar powered power stations, that can be recharged from sunlight this may be very useful to have, to power your devices.
    *Invest in a Cellular signal booster for outdoor use, and camping situations to boost or amplify your cell signal and reception.
    Research to see what you prefer.
    *Very Inportant:
    Invest in a SOS distress electronic signal device, this a kind of device can send out a distress signal with your exact location.
    There are various types of these devices, and including signal that can be used when boating or camping situations.
    There is also the Satellite communication devices, that can provide SOS emergency signal and GPS, and provide satellite text messaging capabilities anywhere.
    *Some have emergency Strobe lights SOS signaling with location alerts, and location updates that can be sent to your family, and emergency first responders.
    Some can be synchronized with your smart watch or phone.
    You can check online, and on Amazon, research what SOS emergency GPS devices will be a good fit for you.
    *Mini portable vehicle battery jumper charger
    *vehicle battery jumper cables
    *Vehicle Jumper cables
    *Keep a Fire extinguisher handy
    Smoke, and Carbon monoxide detectors can be helpful...
    *Mounted Dashboard camera front and rear possibly.
    Exterior vehicle cameras
    Interior vehicle cameras
    *Flashlights or pluggin spotlights
    *Portable spotlights, and lanterns
    Keep a few whistles around with you, and in your vehicle possibly in your vehicle’s center console
    *A set of long range 2 way radios, walkie talkies, to communicate with others during trips, some have 100 mile radius keep for emergencies.
    Use your own discretion regarding the use of any weapons.
    Don’t forget to bring
    Bear Spray
    Pepper spray
    Where is allowed
    If you own a drone you can use it to survey your area for animals etc.
    However, Please Be Safe and Beware of your Surroundings.
    Stay Alert, and Be Safe even when stopping at Rest stops, Truck Stops, and conducting your various tasks.
    Keep in often contact with your family, friends etc.
    Although, I just noticed your RUclips channel, and other similar channels.
    You seem Very Aware of your surroundings and Alert, and you may be aware of many of these suggestions, however, I Don’t know, so I just posted this anyway to help anyone who may benefit from these suggestions.
    Keep up with the latest Weather Updates, beware and prepare for unexpected Weather events and conditions.
    Keep your vehicle gas filled
    Don’t chance your Safety by running your vehicle fuel or gas too close to Empty.
    Fill it up anyway, it will save you alot of time, and headache later on.
    Remember to keep up on routine maintenance, check your tires for wear, keep up with your fluids for your vehicle, like oil levels, washer fluid, brake fluid, antifreeze.
    Remember Because you are on the road riding for sometimes very long distances, and long periods of time, I would suggest investing in 2 sets of tires, and a spare, the extra set to rotate.
    Check the mileage ratings on your tires they all very.
    Conduct visual inspections of your tires often, check for damage, wearing, air pressure, etc
    Keep a pressure gauge to check your tires pressure and a tire pump.
    Keep towing insurance to Be Safe if you ever need it.
    It Doesn’t cost much try to get National coverage if available, or where you will be traveling.
    Keep Extra financing, and savings for any unexpected issues, vehicle repairs, and overnight stays, in a emergency or if you need to rest indoors.
    Keep Enjoying Yourself,
    Keep Enjoying the outdoors, and Nature
    Just..Please continue to
    Be Positive, Safe, and Alert..
    Wishing Success, Well-being and Happiness to You All.
    God Bless You, and everyone
    Traveling, or living in their vehicles, Vans, RVs, etc.
    Please Be Safe...
    Peace and Wellbeing...

    It's great to see the van configurations and I'm about to do my own. I saw a video that said it's safer to put the bed on the passenger side since more parking accidents result in damage to the driver's side. Just a safety 💭 thought and you could enjoy a rearrangement? 🤔 Loving your episodes.
