This woman is my hero. And her husband too. TBH, we're prolly related.

I checked the British Newspaper Archive and found an article in the 16 July 1967 "The People" Newspaper with some more info. Her husband's name was John Anderson, late of the Indian Army Medical Service and they lived in Dollar, Clackmannashire Scotland. He was still alive at that time. I found a grave record for Mary Agnes Anderson, died 5 Jan 1976 in Dollar, but not him. Unfortunately I can't find any more information, but maybe this will help someone.

I guess she's itching to go full on hobo or something.
She's going to fucking hate hiking/camping.
I'm not even subbed to her so the next time I see a vid from her, it'll prolly be her "I'm done hiking" announcement lol.
Speaking of which...

I think it's wonderful to be capable of a long haul hike...
But other than that, I think it's totally fucking stupid and I always have.

Climbing mountains, hiking... all stupid.
Just like I can't relate to people who like sports, I can't relate to these mountain climbing granola tards.

Whenever I walk more than a mile or so I call it a hike because to me it sounds tougher and more rugged.
I guess I'll now have to consider that to some, this instead sounds stupid. But walking sounds even more stupid and boring than hiking! Lol
And it can be pretty boring either way, especially on level ground. But I'd never climb a mountain... that would definitely be retarded.

Bob Wells is so fucking awesome. Truly.
I understand exactly what he means when he says his heart sang when he started traveling around in the little car, that's how it feels when you have a rig that perfectly suits your needs.
I think this is a pretty damn cool update.

Probably the coolest van build out ever.
You could also do this to a tiny home.
Because it's so small, you could deck it out in luxury pretty easily.

Would I want to ACTUALLY travel/roadtrip in a high top van, or any other vehicle you can stand up in?
No. Absolutely not. But I'd park it on a piece of land and live in it.

SUV is #1 for mobile living, and a soccer mom van would only be better if you were willing to go without all wheel drive, which I am not.

If it was long term, you'd want a carport... I'd have an oversized carport so I could put a picnic table under it too.
That whole setup would be fucking awesome.
