We are Linnea and Akela. Through the van build, I used my stubbornness and drive to show individuals that they, too, can convert a campervan by themselves and on a budget, with a lot of learning, rolling up the sleeves, and getting to work.
Our goal is to inspire individuals to chase their dreams… to break from societal limitations and live the life they truly desire.

  1. Do you have link to your peeler?
    You have a very healthy relationship. Trust and communication is everything.

  2. I'm happy for you both. Many blessings to you. You are an awesome young woman, and not to sound egotistical, you remind me of myself from my youth. I'm 62 and was building things, climbing electrical poles for my job in the 80s. I was the only woman, in my early 20s and took a lot of crap!! But there were a lot of great times to it also. Now I'm building out my van and follow your videos from 2 years ago.

  3. I think you have the best of both worlds. I think it’s nice to be able to have some space in a relationship, to create some anticipation and appreciation, when you see each for date night 🤗 even if you do live next door to each other. Also, both of you keep your independence and identity, which is really important for a healthy relationship. I’m 65 now, and even if I fell madly in love head over heels, starstruck, found a gentleman that took my breath away. I would still keep my home for all the above reasons. As my dad would say, life is not a dummy run, so you guys have fun.

  4. Hello both. I am new to yhis channel. I dont even know how I stubmle upon your channel; But you both seem pretty cool peple.
    Young lady, my only unsolicitated advices for you is that when neither of you can't agree to something let the man have the last word. You'll thank me years from now. Young men, my unsolicitaded advice for you is to love, sherrish and respect your woman and tell her AND show her your love for her often. There is nothing more manly than a man who cares for his woman and family. We need more of that nowadays.
    Glad I found your channel.
    Keep up the good work
    God bless you

  5. If you wash those apple peelings very well, add apple cores with some sugar along with sheer gel fruit pectin and just a little bit of water boil them really good you will have apple jelly!!! There’s no waste.p and you have jelly for your toast. Of course, run it through a sieve before you put it into your jelly jars.

  6. For games: get Blokus! It doesn’t take that much room. You’ve got 21 pieces each in one color (like Tetris pieces) and try to place them on the board while blocking the other player or players. There is a two person version or a four person version (that two people can also play if you take two colors each). So fun, easy to get started, and it’s different every time. The person with the least amount of pieces left wins.

  7. Two really awesome people doing the right things and just enjoying each other and life. So special. Thanks for sharing.
    New viewer who is really enjoying all of your videos and Chris's too. Oh yeah, originally from Wisconsin, so especially love the North Woods videos.

  8. Binging your videos for the past 2 days after watching videos on how to do my van floor…. no experience, not sure if you'll see this comment but wow this video spoke to my soul. Everything you guys said makes sense. 100% trust in yourself and the life you live the past got you were you are the future isn't for certain embrace the present cause in reality that's all we have.

  9. Do you have a history of knowledge and experience of DIY that you put into your lil home? Thx

  10. So I guess you answered one of my questions as a first-timer watching your videos that you don't have a permanent set job you just take jobs here and there and you don't wait for retirement to travel

  11. This feels like the most wholesome and truthful channel I’ve found since 2011. Edit: since 2007! 😊
