We cannot wait to have a place to call our own!! Sharing our first days of SPRING with you this week... we can see the light at the end of this long, dark and very VERY cold Canadian winter!!

How Did We Get Here?
Abandoning our Van in Africa bit.ly/2Kff0HT
After an incredible 3 years of living, working, and traveling in our self converted Sprinter Van we made the very tough decision to abandon it in Africa to take a rescue flight back to Canada. As it has for all of us this global pandemic has flipped our world upside down. When our Prime Minister announced that he was sending repatriation flights over to Africa to pick up Canadians who were stuck (due to border closures) we consulted with friends and family closest to us and realized that in this time of crisis we should be back in our home country. Halting our dream of driving around the world was a hard pill to swallow which is why we knew we needed a big project to keep our mind + body busy while social distancing back here in Toronto. Enter building an off-grid tiny house on wheels!! But after nearly 6 months, we realized that our dreams of continuing van life across North America in our new van build were not a current reality with the state of the world. So, we've found ourselves pursuing something we've dreamed of since we first got together 8 years ago... a cabin in the woods 😊
Tour the renovations we've done to our self converted sprinter van:

Who are we?
We're Eamon and Bec, a Toronto-based couple who live full-time in our self converted Sprinter Van!! SUBSCRIBE for wanderlust travel, behind the scenes of what it's really like to live in a van, and videos all about the yummy vegan food we make + eat! VAN LIFE COUPLE.
Our goal here is to inspire you to chase after your own dreams however big (or small... tiny homes anyone?) they may be! We hope to create a community of like-minded, positive individuals who will grow to love and support one another on their own journeys.
Hey are you guys there
Hey Eamon and bec are you there
Where did you purchase the Lexan? Love the clear look!!
Love your videos! You two are adorable & fun to watch! 🤗💖
Paint the fan blades black to pop!
TEAM EAMON!!! =p
💛 both of you guys!! always bring a smile to my face, love the podcast as well. This is a huge THANK YOU to BEC!!! I finally found jeans I can afford and actually fit. Bonus shop in the comfort of my home!!!! Thredup is amazing and im so grateful for your info. Hope you guys are doing ok, good to see you staying busy. Winters up north can be hard on a person mentally and physically. (moved south over 10 yrs ago for that reason) fun can be had but cold and snow make the short days even shorter sometimes. Stay positive, real and keep eachother number ONE! Your both amazing
Hey Bec and Eamon, I'm so sorry for the lost of your dear freind. I can not stop crying . she was and is a shining star that will always be your light in the night sky. Val from Montreal. this to shall pas.
Team Bec!
Sending you all the love ❤️💕❤️💕❤️
Kinda disagree with the comment about IKEA furniture... depending on what you buy... it's on the whole ingenious and well engineered.
They are called chester drawers around here.
I’m on team Bec!😁
I love what you did with the ceiling fan! It was thorough and clean 🙂
Team BEC all the way.....babyyyyyy!
Please someone tell me what kind of dog Bruce is, he’s beautiful ♥️
I'm on team Reduce! Buying things is never good for the environment ;) Love the videos though !!
Ok I gotta admit, awhile ago it seemed like all youtubers used the same skill share layout but glad to see you guys back to unique
Becs side dur
gg
Hey, is that bear country? Door knobs are harder for them to open than those door levers. .... Just an FYI !
I love how my family can Watch you guys! 🤍🤍🤍
team compromise =D build the second fancy dresser but dedicate a shelf to the fan =D
15:32 "Hey Bec, Is that a vape pen in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"
In the warmer weather you won't want screens in all your windows to let a breeze come through the house?
Just paint it white
Chest of drawers
13:27 - We named our boat Pivot. We know Bec can get sea sick, but incase you're interested, you're welcome aboard M/V Pivot.
Bec all the way you got Too much clothes man
Give that man his shelf!
Sunday funday with you guys!!!
Thank you for the fun and lessons in ice skating & yoga pants -Mosa's settled in so well with you- please 'fail' at fostering mines been with me 2 years ( a temporary foster honest).
In my eyes, Tim is the actor Michael Keaton!
gosh 😝 the skating montage made me choked up and I had to hold back tears! Long covid year and seeing you guys have so much fun with your family was just so good for the soul!
When you buy your kitchen make sure to get a sink with an integrated draining board! I really don’t understand why over the pond you don’t have draining boards but disgusting absorbent mats! Even with an under mounted butler’s (farmhouse) sink you can have a wooden draining board at the side made out of marine grade wood with grooves to drain the water to the sink.
Waiting for this week's vlog...❤️
Team Bec
team eamon
Y'all are literally months from being 30 YEARS YOUNG....watch how fast the clock ticks after this 🎂 birthday~better find you a good multi~vite to start repping online.
Where’s my vlog?! I’ve been waiting all week!!
next:a mirror on the ceiling?
a little late but... team bec&eamon ...:)
amazinnnggg guys, although me and my partner both thought you were going to paint the wood on the ceiling fan in white, it would contrast the black spray job nicely.. just some food for thought ;-) the white paint/stain could go on lightly so it would still show the wood veins(partner works with wood floors) he mentioned this! looking forward to the new windows!!
The floor wasn’t installed in the correct staggered pattern. :-(
Y’all have a dog?!
So never anymore van life?
The place is looking great 🥰
My blind dad could put that on in half the time ;) great vid though, love the new Ikea furniture x
What is the brand of folding reclining deck chair you have at about 1 min. in? Thanks!
Good word "I thought winter were over" and it is snowing
Armoire is a fancy name in French for dresser. On the too much stuff argument, put the stuff
Inside and away get seasonal toyes for season like clothing. New stuff rule........ 1 new item. Lose 2 old. If you don't want to lose something don't add something new.
To cut Lexan safely reverse a plywood blade maintain constant speed on the circular saw measure plex sheet mark with water marker at each mill edge. Take masking tape and mark your cut. Take your drywall square and clamp it saw table of the saw plate directly over the cut. Use the drywall t to give you a perfect straight edge.
I unsubscribed over Lee, now I am never watching another video over your supporting her disgusting treatment of Max. I hope you learn how to be loyal and appropriate to all humans. She did him wrong in so many ways...you should have been less biased to the ugly human.
It's my 50th birthday today March 26. I can't wait for Sunday love you guys.
Team Bec because I know how it is 😝🤪
Do you guys ever discuss the music in your videos? The song during your rescue mission sounds extremely familiar.
Love Tim's appearances, nice guy. Another fab vlog, thanks guys.
My partner is the exact same. I'm team Bec!
I don’t understand how they don’t have more subscribers it’s like watching a renovations show that keeps me entertained, good video good music and good content
Haha, u should know better....winter is never over in Canada 🇨🇦 before end of May!🤣
Lightweights!!! :-) I have put up four of those Ikea PAX wardrobes, by my single self this week.
Go Team Eamon!
Lordy, please don’t skate on the ice in a vehicle next to your dog. I’ve seen that go horribly wrong :(
hello guys team works makes perfect
Bec of COURSE!!
Team bec all the way!
Team fan
i was weirdly attracted to this show and today i realized why- Bec looks like Natalie Wood its eerie
what breed of dog is Bruce??
Bec’s energy is just so 🥰🥰 and love you too Eamon
Is your atv electric ??!
Have you guys decided if you are going to adopt Mossa?
Bec, it just hit me who it is you remind me of.... Ali McGraw... 1970.
Team BEC 😂🙌👍
I love the songs in the episode
Your bedroom is so great for sex, not only can you look inside from the outside, but you can also check yourself out in the mirrors
Yeah sorry, changing the side of the bed is a deal breaker.
can u tell me where i buy that ikea cabinet
U guys should of spray painted the individual fan panels as well make it all black but either way the cabin is looking amazing hard work pays off 👌
Glow up on the fan reno
Hy nice work! What is your job?
The smile on the window just makes me so happy🤣
Everyone says that assembly ikea furniture is a drag, but personally I don’t feel its fair, assemble furniture is a drag yes but at least ikea furniture come with easy to follow instructions. I have tried to assemble stuff from other places with so crappy instructions you cant tell left from right.... now that truly does sucks.
I really love assembling ikea furniture
That ceiling fan came out great! Nice DIY!
Love u from India
Becky is so sexy
I love how much of a perfectionist you guys are and how hard working!! It would take a lot of effort filming this many angles. I hope I can find my other half like you guys have.
Team Bec always !
Hi guys . I love watching you. I also love my Chaiwala. Yum! I’m not sure but it was a while ago you had a filter for your water bottles you used in a stream? What kind were they? 🙏🏻🙋🏼♀️
Why do I feel like Tim may adopt Mossa??
I just listened to your newest podcast and wanted to say I have a 15yr old turning 16 in May, SON Kai (Avery Kai actually, but we call him Kai 80s of the time 10% of the time Kai Monster and the rest of the time Boy or Avery.. Both names are traditionally boy names
Also in some cultures, it means The Sea and other cultures EARTH. How cool is that?
Family day on the ice looked like so much fun! Really enjoying the videos!
Team Bec, always team Bec
