Finally got my Sokozi window blockers and they are perfect for vanlife! Nice clean look with perfect privacy, check them out if you're interested - I highly approve. Unfortunately the other goal for this day proved to be a bit more challenging that expected.

My name is Matthew and I live in a van. I lost my job due to "cut backs" from the pandemic of 2020 and decided to seriously restructure my life. I am also a single dad who needed to find a solution that would allow me to remain in my daughter's life and plan for her future. After tons of research into #vanlife, I knew it was for me.
From March 2021 until October 2021 I spent my days building out my Chevrolet Express 2500, which came to be known as "Lucky" and as of October 18, 2021 I have been living in Lucky full time.
The build was done with almost no experience on my end and I used the one incredible tool I had at my disposal - the internet - to learn what I needed to build Lucky into a very comfortable tiny home.
I have always had a bit of a passion for being in front of the camera and really enjoy capturing the world around us. This really played into how I was feeling after almost a year of working from home when I "commuted" from the bedroom to the couch. I was starting to feel extremely unhealthy, unmotivated and despondent. I HATED that, and that's not a word I like to throw around. This new lifestyle gives me opportunities I just didn't have before and I am so excited to be able to share it all with you.
I truly believe we all have the capabilities to turn our lives around, should we choose to do so - and if I can inspire you to shoot for something better then I have done a decent job and that will keep me going.
There is more to life than the consume, consume, spend, spend lifestyle I feel we have all been conditioned to follow and I just want to do the best I can for myself first and foremost. Our time is limited and I do not want to waste another second on a lifestyle that doesn't bring me joy!
Be Happy, Be Creative, Be Yourself and BE POSITIVE!

The 'You ain't sugar, you aren't going to melt' bit is one of my favorite 'Momism's'

Mathew sokozie folks also do front door covers that have screens, so you can leave window down and not let bugs in. Also your ceiling fan for winter cold air blocking.

Polly and Harch Sokozi. Absolutely amazing people!
-
So nice to see the Sokozi's in action. I saw them on Chrome's channel and then Emi (cat lady), but they have Fords, I have Chevy express. So i talked to Sokozi and they assured me that they work just as well on Chevy Express, so I went for it. Waiting for them to come in the mail. Like you said, they have been in contact through the process. Nice people.
-
Sokozi for the 'WIN'!👍🤗💖🎉
-
Penny is like- "Matthew, you said cookies, can I haz some"
-
the sokozi's are a very thoughtful and sweet couple
-
The window covers will also keep the van cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. ❤
-
Happy Canada Day Matthew and Penny. Have a great day. ❤
-
Wow the back of Lucky looks a hundred times better with the new Sokozie window covers. Much more a cohesive look. Love that Miss Penny has her own sticker area 😻
-
my late dad always said we were all born waterproof lol
-
Matthew, I hope you don't mind my saying, "you, sir, are looking mighty fine!" 😊 You have transformed yourself so well. All for health reasons and to keep living your best life. Love to Penny.
-
The new window covers match your blanket which is really really nice! Somehow, makes the van seem bigger….
-
Matthew, I too have the Sokoszi window covers for my Ford Econoline, my favorite feature is the upper screen in the driver & passenger doors. These covers are so worth the money, I live in Florida with lots of sunshine therefore not only are these covers great for privacy, they reduce the heat penetration from Florida's sun penetrating through my windows all day . And the cookies were delightful. From a great grammie in Florida.

Air fryer is really a small convection oven. Reduced instruction temp by 50F degrees, and use about 3/4 of the time. You’ll learn to guess pretty close.
-
Your van looks so bright and Airy now with your back windows open. Very nice! ❤
-
The cookies are a nice touch. 👍
-
You are definitely moving up in the world with all of your improvements Matthew. Still loving your videos.❤
-
