AI GeneratedThe speaker shares a day in their van life, starting with foraging for blackberries and visiting a mailbox to collect packages. They discuss the logistics of maintaining a legal mailing address for a driver's license while living on the road, deal with Vancouver traffic, and unbox gifts for their cat and fitness gear for themselves before heading to Squamish.
Good morning. Morning. You got some stuff on your lens. Again? Yeah. You guys are dirty.
Look all the blackberries guys. We're gonna have a smoothie. Smoothie time.
Should grab a bowl or something. See that's why I want a freezer. I'm gonna be able to freeze them.
I know. Yeah that's why I want freezers you guys. If you're building a brand new van put a freezer
So I'm gonna pick up some blackberries and have a smoothie. So there we go. Later on we're gonna
have a little smoothie. I already had some cherry that I purchased the other day. A little cold
cherry and some blackberry. So I think I'm gonna go. I have to go pick up some package and I'm
gonna say bye to Joseph. We slept in this little place that he's like don't show too much. It's my
spot which is a really nice little spot. But yeah he's parked right there in front of me.
And yeah so we're gonna go get some package and I think we're gonna go
in Squamish today. I have a couple things to do as well.
We arrived to my mailbox. It's been such a long time I didn't come here.
I just opened my mailbox just before I left for my road trip. So I'm like
where's the building? Where's the place? Somewhere close. So yeah I come
pick up a couple package. And yeah we're gonna head to Squamish.
I wanted to cover one thing before I go get my package. A question that some of you were asking
me about the legal way to have your mail delivered and your driver's license done and all that jazz.
First of all I may not know all the law and I'm in British Columbia Canada. It might be different
where you live. So make sure to look before you take that. But for what I know you cannot have
like a PO box as your driver's license. It needs to be like a legit address if you want. So the
place that I go is actual like almost like an apartment address. So it's got the apartment
number which is like a PO box if you want. Like it's a little box where I get my mail. But the
address is like apartment building. And this is my friend who had this address before me doing
van life who told me he was using that. And I didn't have any problem to renew my driver's
license. Before that in Squamish I was using my friend's address but she moved and all that. So
yeah I don't have like a legal way to tell you more than that. I know it's probably different
from where you live but for what I understand we cannot have like a PO box as a driver's license.
It needs to be a legit address. All right enough talking let's grab the package.
All right guys this is what my van looks like. Oh my god it's full of bugs. Okay so
I'm gonna go drive closer to Squamish. We're gonna stop have a smoothie and open a couple
boxes. I think making some space here. We're definitely gonna have to
stop at the recycle too for all those bugs. So yeah let's do this.
We did two seconds and we're stuck in the traffic.
Oh must love Vancouver traffic. I love it. I hate traffic.
Really we turn the corner and that's it. I'm stuck there. Oh and move and move and move.
Two inches. All right I think that's gonna be uh take me a little bit to get out of this.
And uh not so much that I can do. Oh my god. If you know my friend Jeffy Bear
look how much this van look like exactly that old style of it
of uh Jeffy. Oh my god it's Jeffy. Really look like his van. It's not him.
All right we're just gonna stop here by the ocean. Ocean is right here.
And I have something to eat, drink. I didn't have a cup of tea. I just been chatting with
Joseph all morning and uh I guess unpack a couple of those packages too.
All right I know I said that I would have like a smoothie for breakfast but I make my regular uh
breakfast but I add my blackberries and a little bit of cherries. So I'm really hungry. So good.
So yeah look at what's going on in in the van. Are you okay kitty?
Um so this one I'm not gonna open in front of you. Uh I think if you're following me
for a little bit you have an idea of what this is about. You want to jump?
Are you gonna jump? Do it. I'm looking for you. No? Not anymore? So uh yeah those two things go
with it. I ordered a bunch of stuff for myself and I think this is a subscriber box. So really
exciting. But this one's basically. All right let's start doing some unpackage. Oh that's a
subscriber. I thought that was my package. Oh my god. You kidding me? She doesn't eat that
much of those treats. It's a box full of treats for kitty. Oh my god. This is insane. Those are
huge bags too. She already have the seafood one. Let's see if she likes that.
Yeah someone give you some treats. You say thank you. That's our server. Oh my god. You sell it
for life with this. You like the chicken? You want some chicken? This is the chicken one.
Oh my god. I already have like cat food forever. Thank you so much. I really appreciate.
I thought that was my package this one. So I think this is the second part of the package.
So by the way with my mail address. I didn't release my mail address to everyone because
I'm on the road and I didn't plan on going back to my mailbox. But she's on Patreon and
she reached out to me. So I give her my address and I'm just gonna release my address when I'm
gonna go back this winter. But for very limited of you know. I know some people want to send me
gifts. But I'm very limited on the place here in the van. So be careful with this. Oh my god.
This seems like another gift for Kelly. Oh my god. This is huge. Oh she's gonna love it.
Oh yeah. Oh my god. That's huge. Yeah Kelly that's gonna be your chair this one. You want to see it?
That's gonna be your chair. Your chair when we're gonna go outside. What do you think?
It's gonna be nicer. I'm gonna have my chair. You can have this one.
This one is huge. You can have a party with like two other cats if you want.
Thank you for the gift. I really appreciate it. It's nice and compact which I love it.
Awesome. Oh my god. You start having bugs everywhere now. Okay this is mine. Thanks.
This is yeah. This is my full name. So mine. I ordered a bunch of stuff and this is just
one part of it. Okay. Yay. Yay. All right. Stocks on the side. I ordered myself a thermometer.
So I know how warm or cold it is inside the van and outside. A little gadget that I was thinking
about for a little bit and now I'm gonna have to share that part. I want to get a little bit more
in shape. So I purchased some. I already have a 10 pound dumbbell to do some exercise and 10 pound
yes is enough for me. I do have a shorter problem and all that. And I ordered some band so I can
exercise. Yeah. I've been kind of like looking for something right now lately. I used to go at
the gym way more often but you know I don't have the luxury of a gym like right beside me all the
time. So a couple of little things inside the van should do the trick. It should just make me
move a little bit more. So yeah. This. This. Oh my god. This is why I don't order stuff on Amazon
very often. Stuff everywhere now. Okay. And the two. All right. I think we. Yeah. That's it. The two
of the box. I'm not gonna open it here. It's gonna be in next video or two. You're gonna see why I have
a Jack Cree box. I'm sure you figure out pretty soon. All right. I'm gonna flat those box
and we're gonna drive in Squamish and go at the recycle center. I already had some recycle to do
so it's gonna be a good timing for that. I have to do a couple things here in town. I have still
an old like mailbox address here that I just want to go there and close everything and just
grab the couple of paper that might still go to that address and all that stuff.
So I will let you with this. I'm still waiting for one package. My freezer cooter
is in the plane right now for the last time that I saw. So hopefully it's gonna come tomorrow maybe
or Monday and Joseph gonna install me a 12 plug 12 volt plug so I can have the fridge
mounted where I want it. So all that little thing and sorry someone and yeah so a couple things here
and hopefully we're gonna go to Vancouver Island maybe on Tuesday. Maybe I'm gonna go with Joseph.
He's going pretty much in the same time so that could be cool. So yeah I'm gonna let you.
Thank you for watching and I will see you soon. Bye!
