I personally like and love your way of living in a van brilliant fantastic and I mean it Mark as at the moment I am jealous with envy 2024 sorry to say this as I am looking for a caravan " temporary " until I find a van suitable but watching you lifts my heart
My father in law lives a very similar lifestyle, but on a 35 ft boat. He has done so now for 25 years. He just turned 80 and is not planning on stopping anytime soon.
Hi Mark Ive been building a camper van since last year and largely because of Mel at Big van small world and yourself I intend to live in my newly built van when its finished. Id just like to say thank you for being such an inspiration to us older guys (I am 59) so I'll be 60 when I start livivng in my van. good luck with the channel and keep up the good work.Dave in North Wales
My top tip for anyone boiling water whether it is in a van or a house is to boil precisely what you need. It saves time and money on gas/electric. Pouring the water into the cup you want to fill and then pour that into the kettle to boil.
A fiend of mine gave me their full kettle the other day to boil because they forgot their stove. 1.5 lites of water for two cups of coffee. 🙈 It took friggin ages to boil only for 80% to be left to cool.
Thanks for sharing your day and PEACE WITH NATURE & ALL THAT FRESH AIR!!! 🙏🌄🔥🥳🥳... That first spot was just like a painting 🖌️🎨 ... KEEP ENJOYING 😂😂🤗💜✌️🌏👻🤪XX
Inspiration mark , I’ve 6 months to go before i walk away from corporate and explore in the van , you have helped bring the decision forward , thanks mate 👍😊
People don't realise just how pointless the 'rat race' is. I do work, but even my job has changed. I do campsites and also have a few house cleans... and dont work at all in winter and as you say, the cash is all mine when i get it. Used to be a night carer but that got too stressful, the jobs changed so much. I hear so many people saying 'wish I could do that'. Just get on with it. The more the hesitate, the more they are missing out. It's a great life. Loving the videos. Am a newbie to you. Glad I found your channel.
I haven't watched broadcast tv in years then whilst at my brother's his tv was on...advert after bleeding advert!!they pummel people's brains to consume consume consume.....sod all that malarkey,im happy with what I've got unless it unfixably breaks.your a good deecent humble man with advice i do take in
I don't have a tell-Iie-invision /TV either, That's why they call them programes, they are programing you to think and do what they want, and most folks do just that.
I looked into toothpaste ingredients the other day. The most expensive ones like Colgate Total and Oral B pro do have extra ingredients for killing bacteria for fresh breath etc. When I compared a cheap Colgate and Aquafresh with Aldi's own, Aldi had the best ingredients and was a lot cheaper. A lot of people are against flouride though.
love your videos, i live in a house and i dream to live in a van been watching van life videos for years now just too scared to make the jump. your a inspiration. i basically live in one room of the house anyway so its pratically the same.
you should get a metal detector pulling up in places like that brings some right finds ! .....off subject, jacket fits well.............on the swing subject,..never lose the inner child.....
Morning Mark .. why was ur channel taken down ? I really enjoy ur channel . U show just how it really is .. van life .. 👍🏻I’m actually in the process of sorting my house out ready to sell , for me to start my van life 😃happy days ..
Don't do anything to your lovely beard. Leave it natural. It looks great. Mine is the same. I don't understand what happened to over 500 videos. You are the best channel on RUclips. Your comeback will be greater than ever.
Hello pal. Just found your channel and really enjoy it. Quick question tho, why you boil the kettle then pour in to coffee machine when you can just put cold water in to machine then put on gas?
The amount of stigma to "sleeping in" was one of the reasons I realised our system smelt of BS, like your body understands laziness, its just doing what is best for you. This applies to all the crazy going on in the world now, twisting common sense until it bleeds some money. You didn't say why you got demonetised or how to avoid it?
Whats wrong with you ?! , you could be making money for subbies and big builders on site while crippling yaself putting down 800 bricks on daywork , cmon , ure just strange ..🙃
“You’ll never find anyone like me.!!” -That’s the fucking point.!!! Had me in stitches, mate 😂👍🏻

Brilliant thank you 🙏
Happy days Mark, youre living the dream, good for you mate. 😊
Absolutely
My father in law lives a very similar lifestyle, but on a 35 ft boat. He has done so now for 25 years. He just turned 80 and is not planning on stopping anytime soon.
I looked into that and it seems to cost an arm and leg to moor your boat
With those amazing natural views you could get yerself an easel and dabble with the paintbrush!
Hi mate, great video so envy🇦🇺👍😍
NICE TO SEE YOU BACK ON FORM MARK 😀
Love, love, love your channel. Love that it's not edited, love the authenticity, love that you talk about the system. I hope I am just waking up ❤
I Love watching your vlogs. I find them useful and interesting.

Check out the solar Grill/Oven,, I reckon a load of Aluminium Foil lining a box with a Pyrex Bowl and plenty of food can bake for next to nothing. 😊
Wise statements and jam on toast, what could be finer. The Allpowers was at 93% when you started mate. Great video. Love Light and peace
Thats pure gold lad,your best vlog yet!
Yes I think you've got the right idea Mark I've only been on the road about a month and I'm loving it I am retired so it makes it easier
Just found your Chanel. I love how honest you are, I love these longer videos. ❤
I love the English accent, so cool

Morning Mark .. why was ur channel taken down ?
I really enjoy ur channel . U show just how it really is .. van life .. 👍🏻I’m actually in the process of sorting my house out ready to sell , for me to start my van life 😃happy days ..
funniest line ever, you will never find any one like me!! thats the fucking point.
Maybe try Nescafé Azera instant coffee, often on offer at £3 or £3.50 - it's the absolute finest!
Good chat ..this resonates with me
Love the life,,,,

Have you thought about foraging for food on your walks, plenty of advice online
Hello pal. Just found your channel and really enjoy it. Quick question tho, why you boil the kettle then pour in to coffee machine when you can just put cold water in to machine then put on gas?
It was 93 % 😂❤xx
I said you could come do my driveway also mate
Don't know why some toothpastes are so expensive. I've been buying Aquafresh from Savers etc for ages for £1. Still have all my teeth😃
Probably shouldn’t be using toothpaste with fluoride in it mate
Is that in Gosport
Euthymol toothpaste has no floride and tastes beaut
Ruining that jam on toast with margarine tho 😢

99 pence toothpaste and your teeth fall out!. 5 pound toothpaste and they fall out a week later!. 😂
Fuck the system mark🫡
