We survived a WINTER STORM in Our VAN (HEAVY SNOW!)



We survived a winter storm in our van. Go get healthy, get some Huel – https://rebrand.ly/kingingit
The weather has been extremely stormy since we got to Norway. There has been storm after storm battering our van with heavy dumpings of snow and winds of up to 100mph. It’s been crazy! And we haven’t slept much. After winterizing the bus at home decided to overland to the Arctic circle and We, as in me and Craig, physically survived the storm but the van has really struggled. Our pipes have frozen, our water heater has exploded due to the sub zero temperatures, our air con cover has blown off and smashes into pieces against the side of a mountain and now our roof is leaking into the van onto the bed 😂 Custard the bus needs some TLC as soon as we get home! Maybe we’ll re-think winter camping again, i’m not sure she can handle the extreme climates of the arctic!

🚍 Our bus stats:
2001 Mercedes Vario 814
4.2 Litre Diesel
Was 24 seats (now 2)
Air Suspension

  2. Your videos just make my week that much better, they remind me to be in the moment and be silly!! Congrats to you both on an epic buss journey!!

  3. Absolutely awesome. Wish I’d of travelled in the northern parts of Europe before I emigrated to NZ. BTW……. If you,d like to come to NZ and travel around the beautiful main island. We’d love to host you down here in the Deep South 🧡👍👍

  4. You two are like the crazy friends who're never in one place long enough to make plans with! Love your videos and your antics

  5. Oh my goodness! I have just found your channel and haven't laughed so much in ages! Love the scenery, makes you want to visit…..but I don't have a passport 🤣🤣

  6. Hi I have just come across your vlogs I think you two are the most genuine you tubers I have seen I would love to be a super fan x

  7. Amiee is killing these cold water swims. Love the positive support always coming from both of you. Left this video on a complete cliff hanger. Can you remind us of where you got your dinosaur snood hood 🙂

  8. I do not have the words to express the joy you both bring to my life. I am a homeless 73 yr old Cancer survivor living in my car and it makes my day when I see you have a new video out. I feel much love for you both and Thank You 💕

  9. You two have fast become my favorite travel vloggers. You’re smart, interesting, and absolutely hilarious! You have a fan in me. Stay safe

  10. Fantastic.
    wonderful scenery, ice baths your braver them us lol.
    You haven't done many videos lately and this one seem to go so fast.the northern lights were magical. Can't wait to know why you have to rush off.have you seem a moose. We were drive alongnear crash in to one.that was our second one the first one we saw omg we screemed amazing to see.

  11. If you watch Downielive YouTube channel you will see this in the summer months.

  12. Just watched this, OMG it has to be the best yet, but what a bloody cliffhanger! At least I only have a day to wait to see what's happened. So many things to comment on, but if I did it would be more of an essay!! What an amazing light show, it made me cry, so beautiful ❤️ your drone footage is stunning and those views totally unbelievable. Custard looks beautiful in all the snow. Loved the frozen waterfall too, I had my heart in my mouth thinking you were going to jump in through the ice, so relieved you didn't. Can't wait to see the next video, you two are absolute stars, it's brilliant to see you both having such an epic time and enjoying every minute, even the hurricane weather xx

  13. I love y’all’s child like personality’s.
    That was a terrible cliff hanger like why? Why do that to us?

  14. Really love you. We live in Canada, on the shore of Lake Ontario near Niagara Falls and Wine country. Please come and visit us. We have a lot of room and a summer family cottage on a lake. Beaver, porcupines, Bald Eagles, great swimming!

  15. Ahhh Craig & Aimee, you are the most hilarious couple that I have ever met (On YouTube!). 😂😅🤣 Loved your sled ride down the little mountain that you stopped for.
    The Scenery you are sharing with us is absolutely spectacular!! Thanks for sharing it all with us!!

  16. That was the first time I have actually enjoyed a you-tubers sponsor advert. Have sore ribs at the moment, and laughing at this did NOT help! 🤣

  17. I am loving all the love and light you share as you travel both with each other and others. I really appreciate the adventurous spirit and, despite well meant warnings, that you go ahead and take the calculated risk to do something new and wonderful. Whether going through Iran in the Mongol Rally or taking on van life during winter in the Arctic Circle it's always truly amazing to watch the show, learn to go anyways, and to always rule your own world <3

  18. Get some pool noodles to put around your pipes so they don't freeze. You can tie a tarp on top of roof. Insulate the vehicle more

  19. You have the most beautiful drone shots! I would love to know how you film all these. Especially when you’re driving around. I have no idea about technology so would love your insight 😂 loved this video! You’re both so infectious 😊 all the best on your travels!
