- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ต.ค. 2024
- Back on the road and back to a place I once called home…Big Sur, California. This time, alone. Every time I return here, I’m reminded of the many paths I’ve taken over the years, and also the ones I didn’t choose. In this video, I share a little more about life before the road and take you to some of my favorite places along this beautiful coast. Thanks for being here ♡

Hey :) I’m Christian Schaffer, and I’ve lived on the road full-time since May 2018. This journey began in 2013 when I left the corporate world to build my career as an outdoor adventure & travel photographer. As a semi-minimalist, I eventually decided to donate/sell most of my belongings and move into my 4x4 Nissan Xterra. After 14 months of SUV living and falling madly in love with the open road - I bought a van and hired a team to build it out. Van life enables me to experience and document the beauty of our natural world on a whole new level, all while having my home and office nearby. My hope is that by sharing my own personal highs and lows along this (sometimes) wild journey, you might be inspired to hit the road or spend more time outdoors. Maybe one day I'll see you out on that open road 🚐
*My van is a 2019 Ram ProMaster 1500 High Roof, 136" WB with 34K miles*

“Somedays you just have to have cookies for breakfast. And that’s okay”. A quote to live by. Really enjoyed the format of this one. Makes me realize I need to get back to the ocean!
The coast is so beautiful right now - wherever you’re at looks pretty insane too, tho. The van and I have to run from conditions like that ❄️😅 Makes me miss the 4x4
I love both of your guys channel!
❤❤❤
Makes me realize I need to get back on the road. I decided to work for the winter but miss vanlife so much, March can not get here soon enough.
@@ChristianSchaffer love is the energy of this video
I could listen to your stories all day
You are absolutely not “super weird” to want to be alone. I was born and raised in Carmel and Big Sur in 1946 and its hard for me to go back because there are now soo many cars and people. My mother and father knew John Steinbeck and Henry Miller and we lived on a ranch on the side of a mountain above the little Hamlet of Lucia. When you pulled out your copy of Chekov’s short stories that really caught my attention because that was one of my Dad’s favorite books. You are an amazing person and I’m so glad That I stumbled upon your site.
Wow what a small world. That is pretty wild that your parents knew them. Steinbeck’s ‘Travels with Charley’ is one of the first books that really sparked my interest around living on the road
@@ChristianSchaffer 1:52 You shocked me-Those hands look so manly-strong, rough on the edges and tough.Almost thought it was a dude writing
I can TOTALLY relate to “the sound of cars and people is starting to drive me crazy”. You are NOT weird. I very often feel the same way. Thanks for sharing another quiet, soothing, peaceful visual journey.
100k because of the hard work you do and willingness to be open and genuine. You also have great nature shots. Congratulations.
Thanks Scott 🥲
as somone who works in tv production, I cannot imagine how tedious it must be to make these videos by youreslf. Kudos.
wow thank you 🙏🏻 I’m still learning little by little so that means a lot
I was thinking the same thing. As someone who is new to making videos, I can appreciate all the work that she’s put into this video. Beautiful job.
That means no. Simp elsewhere. 😂
I'm proud to say I'm a new subscriber (well last 15 days or so anyway). Please count me among the many who now appreciate the value of having "cookies for breakfast".
As an individual contemplating retirement, I'll probably mess up your demographic just a bit, but as you've pointed out we're on a journey. Being on a journey is something we can all relate to. Thank you for sharing yours. Best to you!
Thanks for being here, Len ☺️
It's like visiting with you, and listening as you open up, while images stream across the mind's eye. Good luck wherever you're headed next.
Love that 🙏🏻 and thank you ☺️
I've watched all of your videos but for this one, I realate on almost everything. Always been unable to stand people and modern life for too much. Since day 1. Energy draining. And after 30 it intensified. I also relate on the end of a long relation for external reasons (she moved far for work after 7 years). Last, the sadness of rainy season and the urge to be in a open, sunny, natural place. Where I live we have these beautiful sunny springs and summers and then it suddently becomes dark, humid, and rainy for months. I usually find myself alone in the car and it literally brings me to the coast. Sun, open space and waves brings the peace back. So keep going sister. Do what makes you feel good and stop doing what makes you feel sad. Simple as that. You're not alone. Cheers from Italy. Take care
Grazie mille 🙏🏻🥲
"12 hours of driving later - Carmel-by-the-sea" - Best location transition ever ;-)
Definitely worth the drive ☺️
Love the calmness of your videos.
Thanks Brennan
Your video editing was outstanding. Love the beach scene ...how you did all those shots and angles was amazing. Your dedication to the art is very impressive. You will be shooting docs in no time.
Thought the same, amazing 🤩
I agree! I love the beach scene and making coffee. So so good!!!
Say what you will about California … the coastline is soooo beautiful.
What’s wrong with cali except the traffic taxes and homelessness lol
I lived in Lancaster back in the early '90s and if you are a motorcycle rider, the weather there in SoCal is just great almost all year 'round. Oh and I do miss lane splitting too...which is not allowed in KY!!!
Odd, in your searching you bring happiness to us knowing we are not alone. You should be very proud and don't stop reaching.
I totally get that need of isolation sometimes, actually alot of times , but with my dog🐕 🤗🌄💕! Thanks, for sharing this Christian. It really helps me to know that there are others out there who understand this. You Always share beautiful videos, they bring me up when feeling down!🙏😇🤗💞🌄💕 grateful for you!
Yeah, it’s really nice just knowing there is a whole community of people like us out there ☺️🍃
I always feel better and inspired after watching your videos. You are a gem! Thanks for being brave way back when when you started this journey of yours because people like me really need to hear it! I'm old so I can't get out like you do. I did a long time ago. So I guess I am reliving my good days of old through you. And that is a blessing. Thank you so much!
Thanks for being here ❤️
Thanks for sharing Christian. You make us jealous in every video you create.
Thanks for watching 🥲🙏🏻
I very much enjoy the way that you intertwine interesting dialog and storytelling with spectacular photography into your videos. Thank You!
The beauty you posses comes through in your honesty. This is why you are the winning soul on TH-cam...and...life. Yup. I am hooked on your messages.
Sunsets from Carmel to Big Sur=spectacular. The turnout above the sea lion sanctuary was my fav truck camp spot. Shooting stars galore.
One thing I like about your videos is that you just let us take in all the beauty of the scene without saying anything. This is quite meditational for me when I watch your videos. Keep up all the amazing work you do. And a very Big THNAKS!
Love the sound of the ocean! Thank you for sharing about your life and lessons.
Thanks for being here 🙏🏻
Congrats on your 100k award, a milestone in this journey we are glad to be on with you. I look at what you’re doing as providing a service to your viewers who for a variety of reasons enjoy your storytelling and video magic! I chose to build my stable home life with my family first when I was young as that was my priority over traveling, a very close second mind you, I could have just as easily chosen to be an adventurer documenting the “Wonders of the World” out on my own. Having lived my dream I’m proud of the life I have lived and my accomplishments over the years. My children and grandchildren are stable very grounded individuals full of a passion for life. My point is to say everyone has their own priorities in life I believe in doing what brings a light to your eyes whatever that looks like. So for me seeing this amazing world through your eyes is such a blessing because some places I know I’ll never see in person. I’m forever grateful for the time and energy you spend bring the world to my doorstep. Thank you Christian, stay safe and enjoy these moments. Why is it that the sounds in nature are not annoying but everything man made is disturbing to the soul. Noise noise noise lol. 😊✌️💫
1:52 You shocked me-Those hands look so manly-strong, rough on the edges and tough.Almost thought it was a dude writing
Nothing super weird about wanting/needing to be alone :)
Thank you Christian. I believe your quick rise in subscribers is your ability to break down that glass barrier between us. You bring us into your life for quick glimpses. We leave glad that you thought enough about us to share yourself, and looking forward to the next visit. I'm very lucky I found you. Stay safe.
Thank you for being here from the very beginning Steve ☺️🙏🏻
I enjoy your videos and also Maddie Taylor’s. Y’all are usually so upbeat and have beautiful scenery.
I love the coastal and beach footage. It’s always struck me how different the light (especially in the morning) is as you move from around Santa Cruz down through Monterey and Big Sur. The whole area is magical, though crowded.
Yeah it makes me wonder what it must have been like 50 years ago. Pure heaven, I imagine ☺️
@@ChristianSchaffer It was much wilder 50 years ago. The Santa Cruz mountains and surrounding environs have been my stomping ground since birth.🌀
@@ChristianSchaffer , born in Watsonville (1/2 way between SC and Monterey in '62). Yeah, it WAS beautiful and to some extent area still is, but not even close to how uncrowded it used to be, especially beaches.
She is legit amazing. So cute, so chill, so happy. Awesome!
I don’t know why I started watching, but the cinematography is great, you’re beautiful, and you are helping a guy who has been on the road in a semi truck believe again in road life.
If you’re ever in the southeast or Midwest, let me know. Safe travels.
California has one of the most beautiful landscapes to behold. Christian, you are a beautiful person. This unique experience will benefit you and others. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and videos.
You aren’t “super weird”. You are an amazing soul and you would have fit in perfectly with my generation (hippie time). We would go out to the woods and reset. Love your videos thank you It brings a moment of peace
I sometimes wonder what it would have been like to live like this 50/60 years ago. I’m pretty of jealous of people who did
Just like anytime it had its challenges. We were trying to figure out who we were and what we were meant to do. Right now at 70 I’m still figuring that out😂😂. But being on the road has really opened my eyes and so grateful I’m able to do that. Stay safe young lady and hope to see you on the road
I saw the piece they did on you through google pixel, the reviews were not good, and I hope it doesn't disheartened you to make more videos. I love your van and love your videos. Keep up the good work!
Just ran into your vlogs by accidents today. They are different than other travel channels I’ve seen, yours are like like prose, poems, and… dreamy yet very clear crispy shots. Nice!
Love your laid back approach. Hope we cross paths on the winding trail of life someday... thanks for what you do.
Thanks Nick 🙌🏻
Even if you weren’t a fixture in your content, the level of professionalism in the photography and videography is just visually stunning and would keep one coming back on it’s own merits.
The waves were so captivating! Glad you followed your heart and passion. I think you chose wisely chicky.
❤️
Congrats on 100,000 subscribers!!
You are now on your way to 200,000!! Keep at it!! 😊
Thanks for the love ☺️🙌🏻
You are my favorite creative photographer/vlogger. What you choose to focus on and share resonates with me very much. ☮️ ✌🏼 ❤️
wow thank you for sharing that 🥲
Thanks for being so brave and share your path. I needed to know someone who love being alone so I dont feel weird in the context where I live.
If you’re weird, then I’m weird too 🤓
Thank you so much for sharing, Christian. Appreciate your honesty and openness about your experiences and bringing us along on your journey. Glad you do not feel compelled to apologize for preferring your own company and solitude. Best part of being an adult is recognizing and embracing what you want and need.
I couldn’t agree more 🙏🏻 I’ve been learning to appreciate and honor my need for solitude little by little and it’s made all the difference
Glad you followed your heart and changed your life for the better. We would have missed out on your photography and creativity. Safe travels and take care.
I enjoyed watching your videos it’s awesome! U love the views everywhere in Big Sur it’s amazing my beautiful nature!❤️
You are so NOT super weird. When you talk about the solitude you need, I (and I'm sure many others watching this) know exactly what you mean. You do such a good job expressing that feeling in your videos that I can feel a little peace and solitude myself just watching them. Thanks!
I want to thank you for sharing your day and travels. I hope you really enjoy your beautiful travels. I'm handicap and can't get around so it's nice watching your travels. Please have a wonderful day and stay safe.
Sound of the waves was like ASMR for me. This was beautifully shot
Thanks for the shots of 8th st. at Sunset. I grew up there, and seeing that glow is like a shot of, well, a ton of memories. It's the only place in the World where the Sky and the beach mirror each other.
Sometimes visual stimulates the mind more than the spoken word…thanks for a fantastic visual video !!!!
Thanks for watching ☺️🙏🏻
your life choices and ongoing commitment to them are incredibly inspiring!
Your videos are so calming and to be honest, you are my favorite youtuber! :)
You and Maddie. Mariah is always too depressed for me
Loved the ocean shots coupled with the song choice around the 5:00 minute mark and used again around the 14:00 minute mark. Just beautiful. Could've watched/listened to that longer. Don't recall how long I've been following you, but I do remember that you were in a relationship that didn't work out before you made this lifestyle choice. But listening to your need for freedom and solitude, it makes complete sense that a relationship with someone in the military would prove challenging because it's a such a structured and regimented life. You should be proud of yourself for taking that step into the unknown. That takes great courage. And congrats on the recognition for the 100K.
Thank you so much 🥲 It’s been quite the journey, really honored that you have been following my work for all this time 🙏🏻
Great footage! Good to see you back on the road.
I came across your channel and watched some old videos. There was something about you I felt I understood, and then I noticed you had a copy of Walden on your bookshelf in one of your earlier videos, in fact the same edition I have sitting on mine. This book had an insanely significant impact on me when I read it at around 20 (I'm 32 now), one of the best books ever written that I turn to in dark times and manages to put into words my feelings about life like no-one ever has before or since. I feel more connected to a guy living in a shack in 1850 than I do to people around me today. All the best for your future travels, both on the road and within your own mind too.
After you mentioned photography near Highway 1, it reminded me of a picturesque collection of photos in a book with the name - (Hwy 1). I certainly see where photographers can get their work published and remembered. Carmel caught my attention the most during that winding highway drive. Thanks for all your sharing of beautiful places and your life experiences.
I cannot wait to park out here with my van
Hi C. The photography is off the chain and I feel as though I am right there. Was there on my honeymoon on a drive-on beach back in Oct 1989. Yes, we are still married.Keep these incredible images and stories coming and thank you so much for sharing your life. It means a lot😊
☺️🙏🏻
Your cinematography is fabulous as usual. From the empty swing at the very beginning I get sucked in and want to know more. Thanks for sharing.
What a surreal experience it must be to return to a place like that living your 'new' authentic life. I think the quality of your content reflects the good choices you've made. Hot digity Christian, you're crushing it with your subscriber count now ! I love it when you get pissed with the weather conditions and just bug out...although I don't doubt it's a pain in the arse when you're forced to do it. LOL ! In 8 months I hand in my early retirement notice, and in 12 months I am done working. I could be just another white van you see drift by ;) (it's already parked in my driveway just waiting for us to hit the road). Another great video to inspire me Christian, keep up the great work !!
Touching and beautiful story/video. It’s important to share these things.
There’s always someone that needs to hear it. Today it’s me, along with others I’m sure. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing that 🥲🙏🏻
i mean wow - you've put a lot of work into your videos with all the camera angles and setting up your shots- my GAWD..then the editing- go girl - i am impressed
Congrats on your 100k+ I also enjoy your content as well!
Congrats 👏🎉👏 on your TH-cam channel award too! You deserve it. You create such beautiful work here👏👏👏🙏💞
Thank you Renee 🥲🤍
Your videos are just so soothing for me. The scenic shots are spectacular and the soft spoken sound of voice is so pleasant. Keep on doing what your doing.
I used to dream about life on the road, but I was diagnosed with lupus. Now I'm in hospital because of flare up. I'm so happy yt recommend me your channel months ago and I can be part of your beautiful life. Love watching you, following your adventures. I'm happy you can run that kind of life and I'm grateful you share it with us. I hope you know you are such a beautiful soul ♥️
Wow 😭 I’m so grateful to have you here, thank you for sending so much love. Sending it right back your way ❤️
@@ChristianSchaffer Thank you, everything is going to be ok 🤗♥️
I really like the central coast! I took commuter and Amtrak trains from Southern California to Salinas then rode my bicycle back to Southern California. Great trip beautiful scenery. You capture with your videos so well!
Thanks for making these videos, they are amazing. The views are just perfect. You deserve all your subs and more. And the comment section is just as good, your viewers leave such interesting comments. Thanks for uploading and being active in the comment section. Very cool !
Thanks so much Nick 🥲🙏🏻
You are not weird for disliking mass humanity and the noise they make. I feel the same.
I hope you find and enjoy millions of moments of peace and quiet.
loved this….the way you put it together, the feel of just getting to “hang out” with you for a bit. I totally relate to your need for silence and solitude….desolation. That is when I feel most filled up….as then I can fully experience all the sights and sounds of nature….my zen. Congrats on your 100k on youtube….well-deserved, and I see that you are already well past it…yay! Till next time….happy trails 👍🏻🙂
Those moments of silence are pure bliss ☺️
I used to live by the pacific ocean for years. Loved it. Now i live in the mid west in a small town. I see video's with people sitting by the sea and it drives me crazy. I wish i could be back there. Some how i need to get back there.
Christian, I have to tell you, these videos are nothing short of fantastic. It gives us such Kerouac and Alex Supertramp vibes, and it's nothing short of amazing. It's really living the American dream, open road up ahead in front of you, your whole life in a van, looking out for experience, because that's all you really want and need. Amazing, I hope one day I'll get to make these memories you're making now, and live that kind of free spirit life.
This video reminded me of a song, "A long December", by Counting Crows. It has a similar theme to the song, a desire for something better after a complicated past. I think the song and this video really match.
By the way, I am an Italian who grew up around Americans in the military stationed in Italy, so since you mentioned living in Italy, I assume you were here because of your ex being in the military. It must have taken a lot of courage to be vulnerable, so thank you for sharing and being vulnerable with us.
Take care, stay strong, and we cannot wait to see more of your life on the road :)
Greetings from Switzerland. Great Video!
I especially liked the topics that you talked about, the music and the iced coffee!
Very chill vibe in this one. Definitely a feeling of solitude.
Loved this!! Intrigued at your love for jalapeños may have to snack that with some avo soon 🤤
One of these days when we all hang out I’ll slice some up for ya 🤓🌶
Not even ‘weird’ much less the superlative. You are in my favorite part of the world. Get what you need. 🌿🌀💗
☺️🙏🏻
Desolation is not weird. Jalapenos gives me the hick-up. This video hit the spot. Thanks for sharing
🤓🌶
So good catching up with your last few posts, friend. Peace, quiet, solitude. Not one bit weird to those who get it, which I _so much_ do. Currently, traffic and housemate noise seriously test my serenity. Some people easily adjust while others just aren't meant for it. "Escape in place" tricks provide the illusion of peace for now. High quality earplugs for sleep and ANC headphones whenever possible. They're my sanity-saving grace until I can break out and begin my own journey. // Your posts are comforting because I relate to you. They're also inspirational. Thank you for putting yourself out there Christian. It's helpful to many of us, in many ways 🙏
Awesome video Christian , thx for sharing & be well & safe 👍😘⚾️🎄
Such a chill style and so cinematic
Cheers Cody 🙌🏻
Just now watched your video. I am so tall( 6'7") that a van won't work for me. I am impressed with your organization. You don't talk much, I like that. Good job!
I have an E bike that I love. It’s a hybrid that is good on trails and pavement and has pedal assist so I get plenty of exercise. Cost about $1800 but well worth it. With all crime in our cities lately, living remotely is a huge plus. Van life is the way to go!
Mmmm... cookies! Yummm! Love listening to your stories, while being soothed by the background music, and then being delighted with the cinematography that's always so good! Big Sur looks amazing... and the beauty of Vanlife is that you can always come back and leave when you're ready. Thanks for taking us down memory lane 🥰
Thanks for being here ☺️
I understand your need and want of solitude. I’m the same way. I live in the UP in what I call my treehouse in the woods. I was just sitting on my back deck, watching your video even though it’s 18 degrees out. I’m on 26 acres and it feels isolated, which I love. The house itself is shaped like a chalet but it’s under the cover of so many trees, which is why I call it my treehouse. I love to sit on my deck and listen to the babbling brook that runs down a steep hill behind my house, through my yard and under snow covered trees. It’s very peaceful. . I can be a bit of a shut in and crave change so van life appeals to me. I have a very nomadic soul. Hopefully some day. But for now, my home gives me peace (doesn’t hurt that the rest of my family don’t like going outside in low temps! 😂)
Wow that sounds so lovely and peaceful 🍃
The sunset with the fire was AWESOME!
Big Sur - one of my favorite places on Earth. Can't wait to get back there.
Love your videos. You’re an inspiration. You are a beautiful person, keep catching your dreams
Thanks for the love 🙏🏻
Congrats on 100k subscribers, you deserve it. You are a inspiration!
New subscriber here. Your van tour reeled me in, your chill and open attitude got me intrigued, and then that shot looking out your window with the sun flooding in convinced me to subscribe 😀
100K Christian! Congrats!
Thanks Roger ☺️🙌🏻
Your cinematography is absolutely amazing! Love your music choices too. Thank you for sharing your life and talent for those of us who desire that freedom of the road. You inspire me to get there someday.
Good thing you left Washington because the weather up here is terrible. Cold and rainy. I sure do miss living in California. Hardly ever rained there. Be safe out there. Looking forward to your next awesome video!!👊🏻
Love the peace ….. the ocean …. Thank you for sharing 😌
congratulations on your 100k subscriber award. well done!
I don't comment often, but I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your uploads. Watching solo female travellers is a heartening experience, and so different from person to person, but please believe me when I say that you are a comfort and hope to me if I am ever left solo at any point. I no longer have fears about travelling alone and filling the remainder of my life with wonderful (and challenging) experiences on the road.
My OH's first grandchild is on its way, but definitely want to do some part-time van travel to the places we stumbled on with our previous partners. We both adore California (we're British, but my OH was based there for 3 years). Meanwhile, 2022 will hopefully bring about our relocation to an off-grid stix n brix, which is our first imperative before travelling again. All the very best for next year. Merry Christmas!
Love this area of California Coast ❤ the footage of the surf was so peaceful & beautiful. Great snack, my exact favorite with a lil hummus. Oh yeah, the drive through the trees AMAZING. Congrats on 100,000. Soak it up girl!! 🌊🚐💕
..wow...this is not just a youtube video, it's art
What a great video! Your beauty and the beauty of nature. Just perfect.
I’m weird too. Love the solitude and introspection I get doing my Van adventures.
You're really good at this! Your story that goes with the amazing vid capture is engaging. I spent most of my life up in the NW and just couldn't do the winters anymore so I totally related to your need to escape. I live down in Charleston SC now, minutes from the warm ocean...and sunny most of the year....without the Cali press of people. It's good!
ahh Charleston is so beautiful! I used to live in Northern Kentucky and I took a week off to travel through North Carolina- spent some time at Folly Beach. Will never forget how beautiful it was to see the ocean again after so long 🌊
Small point, but Charleston is in South Carolina. I was raised in Chas, but I live in Knoxville TN now. Was able to spend time in Charleston around Thanksgiving. I can never get enough of the seafood there! Or the beach...
Stunning footage of the waves. Your videos always offer little gems that are a cut above other youtube channels
Hi :)) I'm so happy that this video was recommended to me. I'm a super weird person too, I love when I'm alone. I'm having a hard time lately, i don't know if university was the best decision. All I can think about is to move to a warm/tropical country, where I can work in a little cafe and be everyday by the beach, hike a lot and don't overthink everything like now. You're an inspiration for me.
Loving the reflections you make about your lifestyle. They are helping me with making one of the biggest decisions of my life coming up in the next month. Thank you from Downunder in AUS. Ben Brauer
You're living my dream so I am watching your dream being fulfilled. Good for you girl! Happy trail's 💜
On a rare trip to the west coast, I once spent a couple weeks exploring the PCH from Santa Barbara to Tijuana. I've never taken the PCH further north than Santa Barbara. That stretch from SB to San Fran looks absolutely amazing! It's on the short list! Thanks for a gorgeous glimpse of what I have to look forward to. Your presentation skills are so enviable! Talent! 😊 Thanks, as always, for sharing your adventures!!
Yeah, you definitely ought to go back and see that stretch of coast 😉🌊
