We spent 48 hours in world’s SMALLEST campervan
In this Japan travel vlog we continue our vanlife road trip down towards the Izu Peninsula, spending 48 hours in this TINY Japanese Campervan. We also discover how different vanlife in Japan is compared to what we’ve been used to – sharing the pros and cons of our experience with you.
The Izu Peninsula is a great Tokyo day trip or weekend trip destination. We take a beautiful coastal drive, visit a number of Japanese Onsens (hot spring baths) in the areas of Atami and Jogosaki coast, as well as some of Japan’s most beautiful beaches, the Ryugu Sea Cave and Mount Omuro Volcano.

⭐ About Travel Beans:
Welcome to the official Travel Beans YouTube channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

Who needs Judith Chalmers when you have Emma and her trusty sidekick Alex 👍
Three people crammed into one tiny van. 😏
@17:08 anybody else screamed put the shoes under the car? lol oh well…
That is one thing people who live in camper van's hardly talk about is how to pass the monotonous hours. People who live in houses can kick back and watch cable TV all day. I know how hard it is to kill time because when I was a small boy I played Hookey from school a lot.
What a spacious car you have I have lived 30 years a go in a mini cooper for 3 years and across through europe
Have a good time youre two and have fun
Still look beautiful with your belly 😏 beautiful places 😊 and everything smell of piss in the UK 🤣🤣🤣
"Pregnant. And fat."
I like your channel. I do not like that you thought it was ok to say that. Women have been shamed for their bodies ever since men decided they were in charge. Whether too fat or too skinny, or somewhere unacceptable in between. I understand your beautiful partner laughed it off, that doesn't mean it's ok for any person to pass judgment on someone's physical appearance. Especially someone with your positive, actually really loving platform!
Isn't it nice how Japanese people keep everything so clean. It would be so nice if everyone respected common areas enough to pick up after themselves. I think considerate people is one of the next stages in human evolution. Hope you doing great:).
Please don’t use hot tubs during pregnancy! It’s can cause a lot of issues with babies development 😮🥹
I am so excited for ya'll!!!! I am sending ya'll lots of love.
Love the video they are always fun and your honesty is refreshing about the places you visit, while it looked cramped in the sleeping area it looked like you were having fun and enjoying being in there. Can't wait for your next video enjoy Japan and your travels.❤❤
Enjoy ur journey & happy travels,guys💙💞💙
We loved Japan. The onsens are amazing.
This has just made me want to return and do it whilst camping… but with a bigger van! Lol
I was wondering do you know what you’re having yet??? I am guessing a girl❤❤❤
Mrs Beans, How could it be uncomfortable sleeping on top of you all night in a small camper. Mr Beans, wouldn't want to sit on you for a second:)
So glad to see you both so full of joy, even more than usual, no doubt influenced by the impending extra bean. I think the choice of van was perfect for you as it will make it even more memorable. No chance of it merging with other van trips.
You both are a joy to watch thank you sending my love.🌹
You mean your Barbie and Ken doll campervan doesn't have its own shower?😆 could not resist that one.
What a neat trip! 👍🏻
I got busy and haven’t been following you .. seems like YouTubers are all pregnant! Congrats
I love how you can laugh at everything. I have only seen a handful of your videos. How do you support yourselves?
Nice adventure! Greetings from Jamaica.
What an amazing experience! Enjoy! Stay Safe!
Want a bit more?
No
😂
Congratulations and love you both. Keep the fun coming
What's better than watching the beans on a Monday evening? Watching them tour Japan😍. I hope you guys got to do the Hakone golden route when you were at Lake Ashi. And I hope you know how lucky you are that you actually saw Fuji-san because I read somewhere that one has roughly 50 days a year when it's not cloudy or foggy. I was lucky back then in November 18 as well and soooo happy when I found out afterwards. 😊
Well done you two, and a half. After seeing the struggle you had, I dread to think how I would go at approximately 6'5" or 2 metres tall.
If That's Really Hot Water,,, I Was Told Not Good During Pregnancy,,,😬
A great trip. Alex, your production values are excellent. I'm sure not many understand the time and hard work it takes to edit your videos. I imagine that finding the time is the hardest part these days. Em, you look so radiant and happy; pregnancy suits you. What a lucky Little Bean he'll be. Any ideas for a name yet?
I love how confident you guys seem to be in a non-English speaking country. I'd love to see how you book into Onsens and buy food. The inability to communicate is the biggest hurdle to foreign travel for me.
Alex's new nickname should be slimer 🤣 he eats like him and leaves residue everywhere he goes 🤭🤣😂🤣, awesome video beans, I really like that mini camper, that would be better than living in my car lol. I'm looking forward to more of these videos in Japan, its the one country I've always wanted to go there. 😁
WOW Soulmates, I enjoy watching your connection with each other and your enviroment❤😁
You made her "fat" dude 🤨
You should spend 48 hours in SocksWithSandals microcamper.
Sorry y’all were uncomfy 💜 beautiful coastline, I love how rugged it is as well. Hope you get more comfy y’all Beaners 💜 how beautiful is the spa, I’d love to vanlife in Japan now
I just hope you're headed to a hotel/airbnb next!! 😅
It looks nearly as pretty as England.
