➤ ABOUT US: Hi! We’re Nick & Raychel, the couple behind the blog Not Luxe - where we write travel guides & help people open their eyes to alternative living, whether that be teaching English online, moving to Cambodia, taking advantage of working holiday visas (like in Australia) or building a DIY stealthy camper van to live & work on the road. Right now, we’re living the van life and travelling throughout Canada and the USA.

Our goal here is to bring you weekly content where we hope to inspire you to break free & live the life you desire. On this channel, we talk everything from finances to minimalism to working online to mindset and post a weekly vlog of our daily lives. We hope you join us on our journey to see the world, save money, live minimally, and most importantly, have fun.

So if you're looking for a channel about van life and budget travel, you're in the right place.

Love,
That couple that lives in an ambulance

First influencers I've seen taking other countries laws into consideration instead of thinking they're above the law cos it's legal in their own

"How we stay safe" it's Baja sur it's one of the safest places in Mexico. I live in Louisiana, way higher murder rates especially now with Mardi gras just cuz it's different doesn't mean it's dangerous

Very good you take the time to learn the rules in each nation.

It is so nice to hear you are staying safe and following the law 😊.

There's other people living in Vans just like these people who think the World is basically good and people are basically nice and nothing bad would ever hurt nice people like them. I used to think like this also until I found out there are evil people in the World who don't care what they do to others. Don't put yourself In harm's way and you will a live longer life.

You are very brave I had a place in San Quintin Mexico Baja California Nice place but just getting there is dangerous I have not been back since 2009 when we were chased across the desert by cartel and then on the way back home stopped in Puerto Nuevo had lunch we cross the border the next morning I turn on the news in that same restaurant parking lot the chief of police and five of his men were decapitated by the cartel you are very very brave and it wasn’t the first time that happen to us but it was the last please be safe and they don’t care if you travel in groups because they have groups that would kill your group without thinking twice about it please be safe and good travels I pray that nothing happens like that to you it is very very scary when you think you’re gonna die yes I’m trying to scare you just so you know what’s up

What’s more dangerous Mexico or Florida during spring break?

[courtnie]

When you have to worry more about military checkpoints and personal safety...why even go to that country?

[mikepotter]

So, totally cool with the concept of doing that in the USA, would love it if Mexico just joined the USA, but what 50 some college students disappeared there not so long ago, its not safe.

I just watched one of your old videos it says you are from vancouver British Columbia and guess what I am from there to I am watching this video at my house near ritchmond

I will never go to Mexico my great-grandfather got pulled over and they wanted him to pay for some kind of a traffic fine he didn't have any calf they shot him in the head wrapped him in a sheet and bury them on the side of the road, , and he was a missionary building churches handing out food to people there's no way you would catch me in Mexico

[serpentbearer]

This is one of my dreams... Few more years

[omg_yeah]

I love how she actually talks nice about Mexico and not saying it’s an insecure, shitty place.

[randycallow]

Local rules in all of Mexico both rural and urban.. never ever ever park a vehicle full of stuff anywhere.. and walk away from it for more than 5 seconds..

[juliersawyer]

Rather be in Mexico then Detroit, south LA, Chicago or any other US State.

[gregregor]

There’s no such thing as being 100% safe, but you can mitigate risks.

[jewelloreen]

I love your videos cause I'm a girl alone in van life and it can be scary. So I appreciate all of your tips, from safety, jobs, all kinds of stuff. Thanks foreal ❣️

The older I get the more I like staying alive.... you couldn't pay me money to go there.

Looks like solitary confinement in that van, especially with the windows covered, looks depressing too!
