i have a really hard time sharing that it hasn't been easy for me lately
because i don't take for granted for one second how lucky we are so this is currently the state
of the van sun's gonna come back out can't hear me through this i don't think they can hear you
very COVID proof um this is not what we thought 2020 would have in store for us
but this has been a super big lifelong dream of ours good morning everybody Eamon Bec community
people who i love and adore my name is Lee i am one of Eamon and Bec's close friends i've met a
lot of you before when i traveled in morocco when we went to tobermory we've shared some
good laughs and some good times so if you haven't met me before it's nice to meet you and i just
went into Eamon and Bec's van and stole the camera and decided that i'm gonna take over their vlog
today because they are pretty damn stressed out Bec has been carrying stress for months through
this pandemic and through all the business changes and through all of the ups and downs and you know
i've been here i had a youtube channel i understand how stressful it is making content so
i'm gonna help them out today and i want to vlog their life through the perspective of
a third party so i'm not gonna lie i'm not a coffee drinker i'm better at making chai
this stuff also can we talk about how cute Eamon's mom is that she wrote us all a note this morning
coffee for you oh hello gracias mucho
good morning i'm vlogging today okay good morning i'm just saying i don't need coffee when i have
Lee around because her energy in the morning is amazing i'm definitely making us two pots of chai
so okay perfect yeah well i've already introduced myself so it's more you need to say good morning
we're trying something totally new i guess i basically forced Eamon and Bec into the
situation i said tomorrow guys i'm gonna vlog for you yeah all day and it's going to be freaking
fun because we have such a fun day coming because my name's rebecca and i'm burnt out

super champion love you girlfriend i love you too van life problems 101

so to give you some context what's going on here i was running events for chaiwala before
the world flipped upside down this is actually a cafe partner that i have been networking with
and working on it's my personal favorite cafe in Collingwood it's called gibson and co it's down in
alleyway we'll show you it's super cool and i just have like the wow factor by having the owners with
me today so i was like wow that's a big shout out for gibson and cody better buy the shot
if they don't become our cafe partners we're just going to delete this whole section out of the vlog
i know but
yeah it's down the alleyway have you guys never been here no it's super cool oh cool
i hope you know that i obviously picked the best one i love it oh so cute
this is luke he's one of the owners of gibson and co down a really cool
alleyway here in collingwood so come check it out hopefully they'll have
some chai for you to try and uh looks like we might have a new uh partner
no pressure no pressure okay we'll see you soon well that was a pretty crazy interaction
oh we should bring lee to our business meetings more often we we didn't bring any product
nice to meet you luke but i i thought that went well what did you get to say yeah it was great
it's pretty chill please convince us to go play golf so i need to reschedule our pickup
don't we have a bank meeting and ruby at ten i think you need to reschedule for today it's
too much otherwise your skirt my shoes thank you erica this is the vlog vlog this is erica
hi she's my golfing partner oh good how are you good kid good how was your guys this morning
stressful well no we're not stressed back's on a day off i'm vlogging for becca what's going
on with the cabin just life yeah oh it's okay i'm gonna give you a you right huge
okay let's get our golf balls on yeah yeah i'm good for you
and who invited this guy i'll just be like no offense but like i don't know if he can
sit with us this looks perfect yes back it's for you i think you're gonna be warm actually i feel
much better yeah it is as cold as soviet russia you look like you're from good we're great sorry
a bit late i have a couple noobs with me might not be the best way to intro back into golf cold
and rainy but if the sun's gonna come back out i don't think they can hear you very common proof
oh my god that's amazing you probably just drove that 200 yards
thank you all right
so selfishly i couldn't be more happy right now because i'm obsessed with golf
eamon's unreal and beck is so naturally athletic that she's gonna love it too and i think why i
love golf so much is because you can do business on the course first shot on a golf course ever
i can't okay put your ball on your feet like this yeah hold it like that okay and then you push it
in yeah and with the driver you want to speed up pretty high oh my god that was amazing wow
that was really good that was unbelievable like you have no idea
like eric and i worked so hard for you'll do that and you just did it without even trying
well it's probably called beginners proud of you baby that's my girl yeah girl get it luck
girl did you see his drive yes i did oh there's a [ __ ] shot can you meet me up there
yeah no problem
oh
you have to take your pants down because you didn't pass the lady's teeth
yes money that was amazing
so i just want to say let the world know that beck is naturally crushing it at golf oh
and what's your stress level at now i think it might have knocked down an
another half peg i'm seeing you smile a lot more so they need the information from you today
we can face it this way but there's a two percent chance that they're they're not going to agree to
it they'll send it back so it's up to you guys if you want anything like just clarifying here
these guys actually have purchased this land and you have proof of purchase let's call it yep but
what we don't have is a proper registered piece of land even though they have purchased it yeah
yeah so when it was supposed to be of transfer it wasn't properly conveyed because they missed
a box but unfortunately one of the friends is now dead oh um so we need a death certificate for mr
to effectively give uh soon or his children to give or his daughter authority to transfer that
um to themselves so they can convey it to you oh wow gotcha
and all of okay i'm i'm up to speed now thank you for that i think if we tally this up i beat you
guys i promise this will not turn into a golfing channel but i am a golfer now
aren't man you killed it dude i'm super impressed
really yeah honestly you're not just saying that honestly you're unbelievable like the
fact that you never played golf before yeah never in my life it's incredible
so the truth behind our burnout probably began back when we left our van in morocco
because i feel like when we were traveling we had a clear vision on the next few months and a clear
idea on what kind of content we were gonna make and instead of dwelling on what could have been
or what should have been we jumped right into another project which was this van build we were
super grateful to have a project we felt like it kept our mental health really strong during
that time but it also meant we didn't really sit with and digest that our life had totally
changed we're not in the most sustainable place with our content schedule we literally film the
same week that we upload so come monday morning it's kind of like hey what's happening this week
and we don't give ourselves enough time to process and breathe and come up with new concepts
how you doing good man i'm here for a
pickup and to be honest this cabin project is
no different we jumped head first into something that has caused a lot of stress behind the scenes
and buying a cabin on a normal day with a normal job during these times can be difficult
being self-employed has made our mortgage really difficult
not to mention when my credit was ran i found out that i've been a victim of identity theft
identity fraud and we've had some issues with the title of the land and of course guys we do
recognize how lucky and privileged we are to be doing any of this so we never want to come across
like we're complaining but we always also want to keep it really real with you that it is stressful
i'd also like to second one amon just said there i have a really hard time sharing that it hasn't
been easy for me lately because i don't take for granted for one second how lucky we are to be in
the position we're in so please know that i know that i wake up filled with gratitude
every day um but like he said really important to share um the good the bad the ugly anyways
good morning
battery died try that again good morning good morning it's a big day today
today is marking the day where we find out if we actually get the cabin because we kind
of explained it yesterday how we've been going through a lot of yes no yes no maybe
i don't know so it's gonna hopefully all click together today with the banks and the mortgage
and the home insurance and all those big boy things that we're learning about
yesterday i basically spent the afternoon just kind of cruising around in the gator
getting the feels probably needs a tune-up but i think overall that was a pretty good buy
i saved quite a bit of money by buying it on auction although it was a high risk
i'm thinking it was high reward we're gearing up to finally finish those back doors that are
driving all of us nuts and i just came to grab my air pods because the paint
department is officially open which means which means i'm going to be listening to an
audiobook so i just wanted to say a quick thank you to audible for sponsoring today's video
you guys know that eamon and i love to listen to audiobooks while we're driving on the road
for doing dishes or if i'm painting i'm currently listening to you are about us i feel like i just
need a little pep in my step and uh who doesn't need a little self-help book every once in a while
if you guys are interested in checking out audible they're currently giving members access to all
audio original books plus one free audiobook of your choice you can head to audible.com eamon and
beck or text aiming back to 500 500. plus audible has just launched stories.audible.com where anyone
from anywhere can stream hundreds of titles for free no strings attached come on back i
got your pink head open yeah yeah yeah i'm coming i'm coming to the construction zone
no i didn't pawn this job off to back she volunteered
love it it's gonna keep you warm at
night
you see bob did a nice job here it's gonna be nice and easy to put the insulation on
but i think he's getting a little tired you got a new plan here bob
what do you call that slap and go slap and go if the stuff works uh they tell you it works
but i've never seen it work in my life looks like the top ones are coming down
hello sir
okay so we can celebrate
now we just got to finish the van this is basically done with the exception of paint
i don't know why the paint shop never got cracked but it's been one of those days
and then this is like a temporary we taped off that so we don't get insulation on our bed
and yeah so maybe fix that up at the cabin more straighten the wheel out
okay now you get out so there they are they're all set to go a couple of hillbillies
and they're heading up to their first home in their life how exciting is that making good
progress we're halfway the truck is noticeably heavy you can feel it on every single bump
more
oh my gosh i can't wait to make this first i hate those things
yes well guys it is a strange wonderful exciting feeling um this is not what we thought 2020 would
have in store for us but this has been a super big lifelong dream of of ours hasn't it to
have a place where we can have our family and friends gather and another reminder that
everything happens for a reason and if you roll with the punches you'll find some light
at the end of the tunnel uh we are beyond grateful i just want to reiterate if we did come across a
little bit negative in this vlog we were burnt out but i think this is an exciting new chapter
oh no i'm still very much burnt down and the fact that we're about to take this on
is absolutely insane but we'll be back sunday see you someday oh also whoever
sent us the siphoning tool from amazon oh that was funny very class act thanks for your service
