I suspect most of those 1M #VANLIFE people use the money to stay in hotels. Those vans always look way too pristine to be lived in.
When I was on my trip you never saw them in the Pan-American Highway Facebook group unless they were pitching something. They contribute nothing to the community.
One of them showed up begging for money because they were supposedly robbed. Somehow the only thing the thieves stole, out of the whole van, was the camera equipment they use to make videos. Lol **** off with that. 99% they were running some kind of insurance scam and trying to get donations off of it to boot.
Instagram is fine for its intended purpose of sharing pics with friends. But for everything else it's the nut low.
