The TRUTH About Campsites… (Van Lifers Don’t Talk About This) The Groovy Life 2025-11-19 | Everybody thinks full-time vanlife is 100% off-grid… but after 2 years on the road, here’s the truth.UK winters absolutely destroy your solar, your water disappears faster than your sanity, your laundry becomes a full-time job, and your toilet? Let’s not even go there.In this video I’m sharing every real reason full-time vanlifers STILL need campsites, especially in the UK winter. No fantasy, no Instagram fluff — just what it actually takes to keep life rolling when you live in a vehicle.Chapters:00:00 Intro00:20 Water01:14 Laundry02:27 Power03:22 Toilets04:08 Safety & Peace of Mind05:10 Spring & Summer Freedom05:34 The truth: Nobody is fully off-grid06:14 Final thoughtsIf you ever feel like you’re “failing vanlife” — you’re not.You’re just living the version nobody puts on their highlight reel.New here?I’m Harley — living full-time in my fully renovated motorhome with my partner Adam and our dog Willow.

We Woke Up to This… | Van Life on the Field The Groovy Life 2026-04-10 | This morning, we woke up to something truly special on the field… a beautiful new foal had arrived overnight. 🐴✨For the past few weeks, I’d been quietly checking on Jessie each morning, knowing the moment was getting closer but never quite sure when it would happen. Waking up to this new life felt incredibly special and was the perfect reminder of the beauty of spring and new beginnings.In the middle of a busy and sometimes overwhelming season, witnessing this moment of new life really put things into perspective and gently slowed everything down. It’s one of those experiences that makes you pause and appreciate the simple things.Thank you for being here and sharing this special moment with us. 💛Stay groovy,Harley ✌️#VanLife #NewLife #Spring #CountrysideLiving
The Truth About Van Life in Winter (Its Harder Than You Think) The Groovy Life 2026-02-27 | Van life in winter isn’t always cosy mornings and aesthetic sunsets.This is my third winter living in a van in the UK ..and this one stretched me more than I expected.

What The Council Told Me About Van Life Waste The Groovy Life 2026-02-16 | Hey, what’s Groovy?✌️In this video, I contacted the local council to get clear answers about van life waste in the UK.There is so much confusion online about where van lifers are supposed to put general household rubbish, compost toilet waste, and cassette toilet waste. Instead of guessing or relying on forums, I went straight to the source and asked Environmental Health directly.This video shares exactly what the council told me regarding:• General household waste while travelling in a campervan• Composting and bag and bin toilet systems• Cassette toilets without chemicals• What happens to waste from large public binsPlease remember always check the guidance for the specific council or district you are travelling in.If you found this helpful, make sure you are subscribed, because I will continue researching and sharing accurate information for van life in the UK.Thank you so much for your support.

Living Off Power Banks With No Solar | VTOMAN Jump 2200 Honest Review The Groovy Life 2026-02-01 | ✨ NO SOLAR. JUST THIS. ✨We’re in that in-between phase right now. Still living in the van, slowly building out the bus, and trying to get real work done along the way. The bus doesn’t have solar yet, so power is something we’re having to think about properly, and right now, power banks are what’s getting us through.In this video, we’re sharing how we’ve been using the VTOMAN Jump 2200 power station in real everyday van life and during our bus build. This isn’t a polished studio review, it’s real-world use. Power tools, editing, cooking, winter struggles, and everything in between.VTOMAN kindly sent us this power bank to test and review, and as always, this video is based on our honest experience using it in our actual setup. What works, what doesn’t, and whether it makes sense for people in a similar situation to us.If you’re living off-grid, mid-build, or relying on power banks while solar isn’t an option, hopefully this gives you a realistic look at what this unit can (and can’t) do.🔋 VTOMAN Jump 2200 Power Station👉 Link: bit.ly/4rdbwrS 💸 Discount code: GROOVYThanks so much for watching and supporting our journey 💛If you’ve got any questions, drop them in the comments and we’ll do our best to answer.✨ Stay groovy ✌️
I Called The Council About Van Life (And It Wasnt That Simple) The Groovy Life 2026-01-19 | There is a lot of confusion around toilet waste and general rubbish in van life, and honestly, I’ve been confused too.So instead of guessing or relying on forums, I decided to ring the council and try to get some clarity directly.This video is not legal advice. It is simply my real experience of trying to get answers, what happened during the call, and where things stand right now.Alongside that, this is a slow January van life vlog. Fixing leaks, rainy days, making jewellery for the shop, walking the dogs, and finding my feet again after the new year.January can come with a lot of pressure to have everything figured out. This is your reminder that if you feel behind or late starting, you are not. You are allowed to take time to realign, breathe, and move at your own pace.I emailed the council and I am still waiting on a response. As soon as I get clear answers in writing, I will make a dedicated follow-up video.Thank you so much for supporting us and being part of the Groovy Gang. It never goes unnoticed.Stay groovy 🌻🔗 LINKSInstagraminstagram.com/the_groovy_lifeShopetsy.com/shop/groovythingsFacebookfacebook.com/thegroovylife
