New sub here. This was a nice little car camp. I sleep in my car when hiking and generally adventuring somewhere. I love the sound of rain on the car roof, I find it’s like white noise. Mac & cheese looked awesome. Take care and greetings from the UK.
@@lifeinmyelement I’m currently living in a Vauxall Zafira, I took the back bench seats out, put a mattress in and it’s like a mini camper now. I love the freedom of living out of a car, and living costs are super low. It’s tougher now the weather has turned here in the UK but looking forward to better weather next year. Do you live out of your car full time?
There’s something so soothing about being out in the rain sometimes…. Especially when camping and your nice and dry and comfy… Loved your grilled Mac and cheese mess…lol Looked tasty! 😁 On the other side of the Atlantic, there’s a young lady name Claire (Wildbeare) that does wilderness camping videos. More often than not, she’s out in inclement weather testing all sorts of gear and like you, she’ll always bright and cheerful. You should check her out sometime when your just chillin’. (But I doubt you’ll ever see this…) Stay Safe, love your posts…TC 😎
Sunshine or rain, your videos are super fun to watch. Great food! I actually like rain in videos. The pitter patter of rain is relaxing. Looks like you're taking Elrond on an adventure through Middle Earth.
I think we're kindred! Glad to have stumbled upon your page. Inspo!!! I was in a jeep for a couple years, now looking for something to stretch out in. But like you said in your QnA.. keep it rugged and adventurous. 🎉
This might be weird but something about your videos brings a comfort level it’s snowing here in Canada so maybe that’s why but your videos are truly amazing thank you 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I should say I was addicted with your adventure experience. I had viewed your previous vlogs some I commented, some I don't but this video "camping in the rain" was so cool. Was very surprised with how you position your own tarp. Very innovative of you. Thanks for sharing. ❤❤
A small Tarp, some decent strength magnets, cut (or buy) a couple poles. A hank of paracord & a couple stakes. You can build a rain shelter attached to the rear of an SUV.
Hi there. I use a reflective sheet to protect my dog in the car. I use magnets to fix the sheet up to save trying to set guy ropes up. Much easier trying to set a tarp up on your own, especially if windy.
Life doesn't get much better than a toasted KD sandwich and you kicked it up nicely with the onion garlic and real cheese. Nice minimalist camping and with real coffee!! You got me hooked lol
❤ Rosa anything you like, like coffee is worth during right. I saw a can if busetlo Coffee that's the best. Seltzer machine I don't know much about them, but sounds good. Your little Coleman stove love it I bet you can bake a cake on that. I love your videos you stay safe and don't taz yourself those things hurt. ❤
Cold Pacific NW weather calls for a cool camping hack. The “rubbing alcohol paint can portable campfire”. See minivan camper gal’s channel from about 2 mos go. Great review and how-to. Smokeless and easy.
Welp, thanks to you , i have to make homemade ravioli soon, (first time) been thinking about it , but now its gotta happen , thanks to your 5star tailgate ! Oh,, don’t let the candle wick get too long , that clump at the top of the wick can lift-off in the heat and land on something flammable
@@lifeinmyelement yea most of those candles say something about trimming the wick , but they don’t really explain the “why”. It happened to a friend , the candle was on a cabinet in the living room , the cinder (from the nite before) landed on a stack of magazines and just smoldered until after they left for work, about mid-morning it turned serious. The fireman said its “common” to them , and the “gel candles are the worst” . I was thinking good to know, had never heard of that
these vanlife/car camping videos make me wish there was a dating site to find like minded people. In my area I talk about this sort of thing and women look at me like i'm crazy... meanwhile you have these beautiful women out there living their best life! Keep going!
@@lifeinmyelement yes. I started off watching his old boondocking documentary from so long ago and it's beautiful to see how he's changed into such a nice person. You can tell he was hurting back then. Now with everything going on I hope he finds some peace he truly deserves
@@lifeinmyelement I'll be joining vanlife in spring and I can't wait. Things are a little more complicated for me because I have twins 2 year olds and a 5 year old son. It'll be shared custody so I can't wait to show them there's an alternative way to live!
I stumbled apon your channel, Im a fan now, Very enjoyable to watch. I love me some Kraft mac n cheese, I always put ketchup on mine, But i may have to try it your way very soon 🙂
I'd would go to a hardware store. Get poles & clamps for the tarp. She had the right idea in tieing off the tarp on the left side. She should've down that on the right. Good video.
Your an amazing little cook dear even in the rain you make everything better I love to watch you enjoy your freedom out there enjoy be safe God bless!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
The classic KD can be improved upon greatly with a few additions but -- Annie's for the most part is a lot better. $1 to $1.50 more per box though. If not more depending where you are. I tend to wait for the 12 pack of KD to go on sale and then stock up. HOWEVER, nothing beats purely homemade Mac n Cheese with whatever noodles you desire and a homemade cheese sauce started with a roux and completed with the proper cheeses. Also steamed cauliflower added is pretty damn good.
mac & cheese, grilled cheese looks good. Making in a Moka pot, reminds me, I need to get mine out and use it again, instead of always using my Nespresso.
Hi, hope your doing well. So I see that in rain and cold days the moisture collect inside the car and you can sleep well. But what about on hot days? Do you open the windows, or have some ventilation on those hot nights?
can you talk about your mental process of going hike or spend the night alone, what do you do to prepare yourself? do you do a lot of research about the location, danger situation, backup plan, intuitions. I would love to do what you do as a female, however I keep psych myself out and is too afraid to putting myself out there!
I'll be honest... I don't do much thinking about it. I did in my first couple years of travel but now I'm just used to it. I'm always a little scared but I've found the more I think about it, the more scared I will get. I don't think the fear will ever leave
@@lifeinmyelement Thank you for your honest feedback. I should be more like you and not be always afraid of everything. I really enjoy your videos and I live vicariously through your videos!

That tall back top gate is perfect for your size, such an easy setup with the tarp. 🐻☕
Very cozy and chill video, thank you for creating this!
U said it, Annies way better brand. Also keep it up, we love watching you Rosa. Even just cooking in the rain, lol.
I like your little system with cooking in the back I've noticed how you tie up the trash bag right there that's pretty cool
Sunshine or rain, your videos are super fun to watch. Great food! I actually like rain in videos. The pitter patter of rain is relaxing. Looks like you're taking Elrond on an adventure through Middle Earth.
Thank you! Elrond desperately needed a cleaning so the rain came at a good time! ❤️
Rosa. Have you thought of getting a buddy heater for yourself to keep warm on those cold nights. Seen on Outdoor Gear Review also in America.
Thank you for your kindness. It means a lot to us outdoorsy folk. Let it rain, let it rain.

Also binging your videos. Living vicariously through you ❤❤❤

Been watching the older videos when I get a chance. Going to try to make that soon

Good comfort food and the latte looks delish! We have November rain here to, although we are expecting snow later in the week. Tis the season)
I know, I've finally accepted I'll have to go to the desert to escape the cold lol
Do you have a video about the practicalities of cleaning the car and your cooking equipment, how you do laundry and how to deal with bathroom needs?
Free And rain 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍😍😍
Hi there. I use a reflective sheet to protect my dog in the car. I use magnets to fix the sheet up to save trying to set guy ropes up. Much easier trying to set a tarp up on your own, especially if windy.
You are definitely a foodie and sometimes when I watch you make food it makes me hungry
I add Jarlic to everything, luv it
Very nice...yes, white soooo ! Ty😃
Rosa, I enjoy your Videos.......Thanks..
love the home made tent if it works you go girl. food looks amazing. Stay Safe
you should publish a little e cookbook of your car camp meals!
Breadbowl and mac n cheese... GENIUS!!! Id add some garlic to it and make it some kinda garlic bread mac n cheese
Life doesn't get much better than a toasted KD sandwich and you kicked it up nicely with the onion garlic and real cheese. Nice minimalist camping and with real coffee!! You got me hooked lol
Thank you!! I'll give up a lot of things to live in a car but I'm not giving up my fancy coffee lol
Just binging your vids and dropping likes and love! ❤️🍟❤️
Doing the same 😊
New sub. I’ve been binging your videos. Love them!
Thank you!! ❤️
That food looks good, I might have to try that sometime lol. And yes everything is better with garlic for sure
It's perfect cold weather comfort food! Garlic = life ❤️

Try the new spicy kd, it’s a gamechanger. Takes a bit longer in the boiling water, follow the package directions
Nice video thank you

That Kraft Mac looks amazing! I usually add jalapeños to mine. I never had it in sandwich form. I’m going to have to try it sometime.
Ohhhh damn jalapeños is such a good idea! Definitely going to be trying that
Howdy Rosa, yummy 😋
Macaroni and cheese...
Grilled cheese 🧀 😋
Oh Yeah Lady Rosa 🎶
Basically how can I make Mac n cheese even more unhealthy lol worth it
Good video, sunshine in Montana right now.But cold.Gotta love mac and cheese, and garlic.
Yea, you guys are having some very cold weather right now! It's almost warm in Washington by comparison!
One of those videos that really makes me want to camp😎💪
I'm so excited for some nice summer camping in a couple months. Long days, campfires, all the good things
Looks like a delicious comfort food.

Ketchup on Mac n Cheese?? I have never heard of that before lol

I've never tried that I'll make myself two tomorrow lol 😆
That looks pretty good there I will try it

i def vouge for annie’s or organic options! they look better on camera! there’s even chickpea mac and cheese
Rain= Free vanlife\carlife shower! LOL!
Exactly, why pay for a shower when you can just wait for rain 🤣
I just came across your channel m. I’m loving it! Your so hyper, energetic and very beautiful!
Wow, thank you so much! Appreciate ya being here 🥰
Where are you from?

@@jonathonholland9022 ooof no offense but come out west instead lol
U just invented the Mac & Cheese Burger lol...
It's almost midnight when i'm watching this but that macnchees-burger made really hungry.
I'm gonna pop open a bag of chips.
Goodnight from Italy.
Yes don’t watch her videos late at night as they make you hungry 😬
That Mac and cheese sandwich looked so good lol
Thank you!!
Try making Kraft Mac N Cheese box. Then throw in a can of Chili. Mix it up. Really good when camping.
Holy YUM Batman!!! Save me some!!
the fact that you balanced the half of the bread in your leg while eating amaze me
mac & cheese, grilled cheese looks good. Making in a Moka pot, reminds me, I need to get mine out and use it again, instead of always using my Nespresso.
you crack me up girl
🙂 Hi Rosa✨ Since you go on so many hikes by yourself, what protection do you carry in case you encounter a bear? 🐻 Love your videos!! 💕
❤️🧀❤️🧀❤️🧀❤️🧀❤️🧀and you aren’t screaming! Volume much better ❤️
Thank you!! Appreciate the feedback, I'm trying!

Hi, hope your doing well. So I see that in rain and cold days the moisture collect inside the car and you can sleep well. But what about on hot days? Do you open the windows, or have some ventilation on those hot nights?
Apologies if you've said it , but what espresso do you like to use?
So I use Illy if I am feeling fancy, but usually I get Lavazza! It's almost as good and half the price
That looks good
Try adding some brown sauce next time it's amazing.
So when are you going to open up your cafe?
pork & beans would probably be a good meal for you since there’s not much to it & it’s pretty quick 🤷👍
Hiii couldn’t you put the tarp on top of the car to help absorb some of the rain & sounds ? Like a canopy above your car to lessen the noise? :)
Damn that looks good angel eyes
Now I’m a big dude, but even that’s a lot of food for me. Looked delicious though!
Lol to be fair, I really only eat one meal a day so it's usually oversized 🤣
❤ the 👢 on you😁
Thank you 🥰
I just realised that you're left-handed!
That mac & cheese was pretty intense.
I like the IDEA of rain (& wind), but as a tent dweller I try to avoid it.
Oh gosh, yes. I give major props to regular tent campers. I could not do it!
❤❤❤
Save some Mac and cheese for me lol
Where I live in California it's not as beautiful as there
❤️

Camping in the Pacific Northwest.. rain, followed by rain, with a chance of rain ☔
Pretty much 😂 except for july/august where it's just sunny endlessly
Watch this a little longer she did tie off the tarp on the right side. She carries a stun gun . Very good idea
Annie's white cheddar all the wayyyy
Maybe you should have some bungee cords along with you for times like these.
Yummy
You are adorable
I’d be nerves as hell being a woman camping alone in some of those places u go. Stay safe out there.
I watched another camping video. That woman showed that she carried a satellite phone and pepper spray. Good ideas for bring alone in the outdoors
Same. I'd prefer parking lots of allowable public spaces
Are you still car camping Aug 26 202!?
I love my coffee over all others.
This looks like the best stoner food 😂
YUM
Do you have a job or how do you make money on the road? Are you living in your car full time or just part time?
Exactly what I thought…. No comment huh?

Not work, I have Thanksgiving plans in Washington! But I'll be leaving right after

A stun gun is like a condom, I'd rather have one and not need it, than need it and not have one.
I just noticed your a lefty
