    Your nature drone shots with EPIC RELAXING MUSIC is so amazing! I’d love to watch an entire video just of this, no talking, just to relax to.

      I agree. Love the drone shots. Just enough here and there but nothing overwhelming.

    Wear a headlamp at night when you are out in the bush. You can access light right away and blind any predators and you can look into your carrier. 🤗

    The solitude and security of what nature gives, cannot be duplicated. Oh boy I'm jealous, spring needs to come for me to get back to camping again. Dang medical issues delaying my fun. Thanks for letting me live through you in my off season.

    From so cal. Cougars are a thing here. You don't see them. They don't want you to. If you do be careful because you either scare them or they want your pet.

      That wanting to be petted thing doesn't wear out, even for a wild animal. What you said is true, because it's happened to me. As far as wanting your pet, they don't really "want" it. Hunger is more of an option than an instinct to be afraid of something that the wild thing doesn't understand.

    Love your videos. Not that I will do any camping etc., because I have had back surgery that went south.😥 You are a wealth of information though for all those that are in the beginning, the middle or just "dolling" up their van!
    So, here goes my friend, buy, Cruzie an out side bed please. He would enjoy it so so much. Love you and Cruzie! God's blessings.

    Hey, Chrome! Not sure if y’all have Dollar Trees in Canada, but they have cheap, $1.25 puck lights that have a sticky substance on the back, where you can affix it to the inside of your storage.

    There's something about being out nature smelling those pine trees and fresh air after moisture has been on the ground it's heaven, I can't wait to get my van finished and just put the middle finger up to the world and say I'm going back to live in, lounge chair campfires in the beauty of nature is what it's all about

    Some years ago I was in Colorado's Roosevelt National Forest in a nice meadow and I parked my mini van with all windows to sleep for the night. It was mid summer still daylight as I started to go to sleep. As I closed my eyes I was awakened by something outside. When I opened my eyes there were 6 cows looking in my windows waiting to get fed or looking to bed down for the night next to a vehicle to feel safe from bears or coyotes.

    A battery powered kick board light that uses a strong adhesive strip may work for your carrier light if you haven't already thought of it. Yeah, I know suggestions are a dime a dozen, but just thought I'd mention it. :)

    @billkipper3264 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One of the things I always notice in your videos is the amount of clear cuts. They're everywhere. Years ago I spent five months in the Whistler area and remember that as well. Still, it's absolutely gorgeous. As far as animals go you're right. They don't want anything to do with humans for the most part. Although you do get some interesting encounters once in a while. Once, during a weekend backpacking trip in Alaska there were four of us sitting around the fire when out of the darkness a cow moose literally walked between us and the fire. Scared the crap out of us but she seemed totally unperturbed and just continued on her way.

    It is truly inspiring to see the van life from many perspectives. You bring a really nice unique view of it and the experience as well. I have been thinking about getting my own van for a long time, but always get sucked into convincing myself not to do it, even internally I know it is the right thing to do. Watching your videos might be the thing that pushes me over the line to gain the confidence to make that leap. Thank you and keep creating :)
