Van life⧸ What I do on rainy days inside my tiny house？ Solo female traveler

Welcome to my morning. Ah, it's a beautiful morning. So uh good morning. Today's supposed to rain for pretty much all day. Every rain I think today. But right when I started filming of course the rain stopped. So I'm gonna drove out of here um and hopefully um probably when I'm gonna be at the spot it's gonna start raining. It's always always but um hopefully I can just do a little quick walk with Kitty because she doesn't like the rain and she think I'm the one causing the rain. She get mad at me. I'm like I have nothing to do with the rain. I didn't decide. But uh we cannot complain. It's been I think three months we escaped the rain now. Um I thought about escaping this one too to be honest. I was like oh let's go drive somewhere where it's dry. But the whole value where I am it's still raining everywhere like. So we are back in Prince Rupert. On my last video I was kind of like getting out of Prince Rupert but I drove back. Yep I was like all right it's gonna rain wherever I go. So I managed just to you know enjoy this little place. So uh we are back. It rained yesterday for most of the day and uh today's supposed to get even worse. I think this afternoon and evening's supposed to get worse. So let's go walk the cat a little bit and see what we're gonna do for the rest of the day. So uh you can probably tell it started raining again and so Kelly didn't get her walk. But I decided to go by the ocean because I think it's the best place to watch uh the rain. Yeah you probably cannot see so much because it rained. So we're just gonna chill here and I'm gonna have my breakfast. So I'm just gonna make my typical breakfast lately. Uh oatmeal uh blueberry oatmeal. So what I do um I just grab some frozen uh blueberry. So I'm gonna make like something around like almost like a jam. I'm just gonna let that uh cook for a little bit and it's gonna get even more sweet and after that I'm gonna make the oatmeal. So right now I'm doing like what I don't really like to do when it's raining day. Which is to cook something that's gonna release a lot of steam inside my van. So I don't have like a fan if you don't know. I don't have a fan on the roof. I only have my two side windows that I open but because it's raining every second I cannot like open them too much and because it's cold outside and it's gonna get warm inside the van with the with this um it's gonna get a lot of condensation inside my van. A lot of humidity inside my van. Right now we are at 60 percent humidity and it's probably gonna go at 75 with this uh quite confident. So sometimes when it's like like this especially in the winter when it's raining a lot on the west coast I'm just gonna make something barely any cooking like something super quick like have my other uh the breakfast that I sometimes do like it's got no cooking just um oatmeal with milk and uh chia seed and all that um but I don't have I didn't go at the grocery get no milk I'm gonna go there uh and I just feel something to warm me up so yeah it's kind of like something like a balance that I have to do um sometime too if I I'm just gonna add a little splash of water um sometime too uh in the winter um I might just go like grab something at the restaurant sometimes in a while just to not add any moisture inside the van and also I don't have a heater which is coming in I was to say September but we are in September uh probably more like October when I'm back around Vancouver, Vancouver Island and it's gonna be a dry hair heater I'm not sure which one if you ask me um so this will help me to dry the van um today I'm just gonna do maybe a couple driving in town so kind of dry the a little bit more the inside of the van it's kind of like those strange things that uh when you don't live in a van you don't think about it on those days that it's raining like that's gonna like affect the moisture inside the van and all that um probably if you have like a fan it's a little bit easier for that but I just found for me that um try to reduce my cooking in the winter to not add moisture inside a van so it stopped raining a little bit so I opened my window a little bit more now uh I can always open them like one inch even if it's pouring rain and the rain is not gonna come but um yeah right now I just opened them a little bit more and just for I just started this and it's 68 percent humidity so I'm gonna put the oat in the water and let that cook for a couple minutes I could hear like someone on the radio was like where's the car where I don't see it it's the boat it's the boat where they are probably uh talking to the coast and I like to put the maybe half a scoop of protein powder on my oat so one of the things that I do every time that it's raining because right now it's stopped I open my window like fully to let like things like breathe and change and try to reduce my humidity as much as possible inside the van because it's kind of get like a little bit like sticky and like you know not nice feeling when you have a lot moisture inside your van and I went on the west coast it's always something that we have to battle with in the winter and so I always like try to open the doors open my windows um as soon as it stopped raining just to reduce the humidity but obviously if it's got a lot of moisture outside good chance it's got a lot of moisture inside my van but yeah so I'm gonna enjoy this little breakfast uh looking at the ocean all right my breakfast is done I've been watching the boat for a couple minutes now um I'm gonna go at the gym have a shower and actually do a workout so let's do this you always wait for me yeah oh it's been great to do some exercise I'm trying to uh to do a little bit more exercise I used to like go out of gym seriously last summer I think like six days a week I was like I'm going to gym to have a shower so better to just you know exercise in the same time and I hurt my back last November October and I didn't really go since and like my shoulder bothering me and my back bothering me and I was like maybe I need to stretch and just just go at the gym but like really like slowly progress you know instead of like just going for for the weight because like I can feel that I lost you know like muscles and like strength and yeah so I've been kind of like just trying slowly doing some bicycle and like stretching a lot you know so yeah slowly getting back to that but yeah feels good feels good to stretch just to do a little bit of exercise um so I thought that hello I thought it would rain a little bit more it was supposed to be like really bad rain um so I think what I'm gonna do I'm gonna try to see to walk her uh give her a little bit of and for the rest of the day I think I'm gonna chill inside edit a video maybe watch a movie sometime I just park like here they have a library they have really good wi-fi and I'm probably gonna park in there beside the library and just yeah chill in the van so um thank you for joining me I thought it would be fun to just join me on a rainy day to see like what I do because that's a question a lot of people are wondering like what you do on a rainy day like you can do pretty much what you do inside your actual house like you know laundry shopping you can drive if you don't feel to uh um be in the rain um yeah it's usually where I just do laundry edit a bunch of video which is great for me because I kind of have like my work if you want on the road so I can um edit a bunch of video on a rainy day and just when it's sunny just do my thing you know and not having to uh worry about work all right I'll let you with this let you with a little kitty and thank you for joining me and by the way I don't really say that that often but if you are um wondering everything is inside my van from the stove from pretty much everything that all like I have inside the van if you wonder what it is I do have my website thecatladyvan.com uh under the van yeah under the van gear or something you have all everything I have inside my van and I'm gonna go back and just like add a couple new things so if you see something that's not if you want to know something that's not there just let me know I'm gonna do my best to try to track that uh sometime I don't purchase that often on Amazon so it's hard for me to like link on Amazon stuff because yeah I do I do shop like in a regular shopping quite often all right guys I will see you soon take care of kitty you're busy you need there you go hello I am watching a documentary about the fitness on earth a decade of fitness which is the crossfit um kind of documentary very good so far and just chilling I'm in front of like oh beside McDonald's now if you see me in those places not because I'm
