I turned on the wipers for a second and then they hit the GoPro and it broke the wipers. I'm driving into Kansas right now and there might be a snow storm, which would mean we'd need our windshield wipers, so I try to fix them, maybe with some duct tape, good luck, oh yeah, that broke. I think I just broke it the wrong way laughing it'll probably work fine it'll get us through this storm let's try yours fix something buddy that's my little guy good job I mean he's the one who broke it in the first place .

I don't know why he patted her. him putting his hands down he rolls the video and it's 20 degrees and snowing we should all be fine even just filling up baby what did you do in the freezing cold?
Guys, just get out of the car and search everything, you just searched our car. I guess drugs and things like narcotics because there's a big problem with that here, obviously we don't have anything with us, we've been sober our whole lives, so if you don't have anything with us, we'll freeze within 30 minutes. The cold behind us following us was so strange brother that it made me put my hands against it calling as if I was looking for weapons, I say stop doing that, the little bird is my best friend, thank you sir officer for freezing my balls, he said, it's you? transporting large amounts of drugs and I say no, I'm just going to see my mom in New Jersey.

Good gentleman, wow, this woman. time for a cold shower, go to the public bathroom, life on the road, first time, chair, we had a truck stop and no hot water, oh my god, that didn't show, it stayed so cold. I've never showered at a gas station, so now I can. Say I've done that, heads get cloudy, what was it like? They're tough bro, what was the shower of work that ever was in my life? Something was so bad. Now we're going to map New Jersey and try to get

home

today and we're 11 years old. hours and a half away how many miles 784 miles we are going to have to go back to sleep on the roof once again in a little house who knows where because we have no plan, right?
I guess what happens is driving, that's the fun. about this van life, even though it's so spontaneous, you're forced to make spontaneous decisions, okay, we have to eat our way, get out, you're getting to the band, let's go get something to eat and get out of here. Why is the ground wet? That's not good. Water cannot be wet. It is 15 degrees from the Earth. Venus. Alright. I don't know if you guys heard that, but there's hail hitting the car. Let's see, we are entering another storm. It's like Haley got. placed on the ground you think we should try to get home I think so, there's so much ice, buddy, we're driving into another storm, we serve 300 miles until it's morning, we said we'd do a little series of adventures at home, mother. nature said yes oh yes I can't believe it we are literally an hour from home in the home stretch we escaped the storm I didn't want to get stuck in anotherstory we arrived without good we arrived home guys I can't I think our honey house that was right at our house in Los Angeles is located at our house in New Jersey.
I can't believe adventures come to the name, but adventures don't end forever. We will have this for a long time. We'll be doing even more customizations on this truck, redoing the entire exterior and making it just as adventurous. It's funny, but let's talk about what it was like to live in a van. In fact, I am very proud because we went through the most difficult thing. weather conditions we were

cross

eyed, it was so cold they couldn't even tell, holy Sh, we went through the harshest weather conditions we could have gone through and it held up, we made it, we were able to live relatively comfortably in our van that we built ourselves.
I always wanted to design and live in a little house of my own and I finally did it, it was even cooler that it had wheels and we could go wherever we wanted whenever we wanted. I will say that if it were summer, that trip would have been the best. Funniest thing ever. The only time I didn't feel uncomfortable was when it was cold, but I don't think I'd be so proud now. I think it just made it more fun. It gave me more of a sense of accomplishment. our house surpassed that and now we are here at the finish line before we leave.
I put the trip meter on the car and just checked and it's 3,000 372 miles. I think that's how much we drove it. It took us what, three and a half days, guys, okay, that means we drove about 900 miles a day, same thing,

living

on the road was a lot harder than I really expected. . I just didn't think much about the future. Oh, we're just going to live in the van, park where we need to, and then fall asleep in it, but finding a place to park where you have access to a power outlet where you feel safe isn't that easy to find, esp. when you're in the middle of nowhere and you feel uncomfortable you've never been there before taking a shower.
I was very high from the natural showers. I bought this natural soap and thought, well, jump in a river. I didn't realize that it was going to be 20 degrees and I also didn't realize that you had to find a river or a hot spring or something before going there, but on a higher dose, but one day we had to drive two hours. even taking a bath and then the cold shower at the gas stations was just nice, it was a lot of fun because I could say I did it dad. I think there's one thing you don't know that you want to be able to say, but now. once you're able to tell he feels pretty good, I think a cold shower- guys, he really doesn't feel like he hasn't improved my life that much.
I only did it because they forced us - yeah, eating we had a lot of food prep before we came and our food is up there, so that's what was able to keep us on the road. We didn't have to stop too long to eat even though we did one of the boys seasons we went to. He took his information. and then he tried to rack up all these charges so we blocked his car, luckily I have mine but we expected that to happen and they are also very good people, I think they give us free showers, oh he was an amazing guy. this video for the guy who gave us three showers he was so nice honestly genuine real people like that are the coolest and also there are so many vibes in this world yeah and we both never knew it until we went and found them. you just get hit with these feelings when you drive through certain areas where you feel a little out of place but for some reason you feel like you should be there, it just shows you that this world is bigger than ever.
I thought it was and is so much more beautiful than you could ever imagine. Honestly, that's staying on your toes and there are different types of lifestyles that everyone lives around and you can't even see if you have time in your life or not. You shouldn't take the time for it, you should go out and explore this world. This was an amazing experience and you should know that this truck will not be cornered and never used again. I'm going to use it a lot for more trips. Yes, keep up to date with us on our other social networks.
I'm sure we will make many other trips. You also thought this series was intense and crazy. We saw an alien. They stopped us. Are we stuck on the highway next? The series is going to be yeah, well I have to say the clean version of that, our next series is going to be a frog, okay, put in a frog, he just made it sound like it's no good, okay, actually it's going to be Jersey, our next series. It's going to be literally and I'm a little scared but I want to do it. I have to do it.
I didn't mention you guys first, but we had to go pretty fast on this trip because we had to do Return to Los Angeles because we're headed to Australia and we're doing something gnarly there, it's going to be crazy, so stay with us, subscribe if you want, we will be back soon.
