You are seriously a gift to so many. Your poetic voice and gentle spirit bring such peace to me. Thank you for sharing your journey.
I am blown away by how beautiful your videos are .. you are are wonderful story teller .. it’s like you bring us into a novel about you ..well done Maddie. And about loneliness…well it is just a place to begin …
I always thought the same things about her
Your filming and editing is really impressive. I can see how you’re learning that editing is really just like writing, but with images. I love your wordsmithing. Well done.
Have to say it's nice she did...l appreciate it. I like her philosophical insights and sharings. Yes her videography is excellent but is consistent with her artistic skills.
Maddie you bring so much light with your gentle spirit. Thank you for sharing these special discoveries to us with your curiosity for Mother Earth. You’re so beautiful and adorable💛💛💛
Rivers, streams, and rain. So therapeutic and relaxing.
A lovely end to Arizona. I'm looking forward to seeing how your flower pressings turnout. Inspiring as always!
Maddie, it’s been so fun over the past year to watch your channel develop into gorgeous storytelling. Nice job on this one!
:') Thank you so much, Yvonne.
Love this chapter. What a beautiful time in AZ and the sunset fire on the edge of the canyon was ethereal. You mentioned one day not living in your van. I'm so sentimental. I think if I were you knowing all the time spent building my baby and experiencing all the adventures (mostly alone) in it, I'd cry 😢 ❤️
Thank you Maddie for another wonderful video. It is interesting seeing how you have developed your different skills an interests as you have been travelling around all those amazing places. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe and well.
What a precious gift this record of your life is to all of us and I am exceedingly grateful for it.
You are such a great story teller. Words, actions, film, facial expressions and your lovely voice. The affection you show Eliza is natural. It shows the kind of person you are.
I hope you don’t mind me saying that when you were preparing the flowers for pressing, I was reminded of The Cottage Fairy and that is a compliment.
This was so sweet to read, thank you so much 🥲 ESPECIALLY for the compliment relating me to The Cottage Fairy. She is one of my absolute favorite storytellers. :)
AZ local here... You happened to visit at one of the best times of the year! Happy you were able to stop at all these places. Enjoy your next journey ✨
To look up into a night sky, sans luminous pollution from any given city, is why I love camping. Beautiful spot.
Your artistic talent is what also makes your videos special! Keep up the good work.
Yes Arizona is very diverse. So is New Mexico. After traveling the west for decades, I knew where I wanted to settle. So I bought 1,000 acres on Arizona/New Mexico border. I have land on both sides. My little place of heaven. Keep in mind where you want land to settle one day. Off grid life TH-cam channel sounds great. Don’t forget to install diesel heater before winter comes. Great video.
Thank you Maddie :) , for letting us be on your journey also . Such a calming period watching your vlogs , helps us to forget briefly , all the madness that has enveloped the world currently !!!!!!
it’s been so cool seeing you explore AZ! i’m living here and from here and so cool to see these beautiful places through your eyes! glad you enjoyed it
Arizona is a special place. There's a certain comfort to the desert, but also in knowing you can drive to different weather on a whim there. So glad you appreciate it!
I agree with the viewer who commented that you are a gift to many. Your videos truly bring us peace and beauty. Thank you, Maddie.
You are just the absolute sweetest person ever!! It's mesmerizing to me. It makes my heart happy that there are people like you in the world. Truly a rare gift in this world. 🌻💝😊🌍🌻
What a beautiful video, the reading of the poem at the end left me daydreaming and wanting to hear more. Those flowers are truly wonderful and I hope you set them in a frame as you mentioned. My flower pressing hasn't been too successful but watching you has given me the urge to try again. I wish you and Eliza a safe journey to your next spot, and I can't wait for your next video. 🌺🌺
Your watercolours are amazing! You are so very talented!
I'm looking forward to what's next :)
The southwest is amazing. I did not spend much time in Arizona when I was traveling last June/July, but I absolutely fell in love with New Mexico and its diverse terrain.
Maddie this is definitely one of my favourite videos of yours to date. You’re an incredible story teller. The sunset over the canyon was a beautiful tribute to your time in Arizona! I’m so excited for your next adventure 🧡
Love your videos!! Such a joy to experience these days with you. It’s so relaxing.
Such thoughtfulness to end your video , sitting by a fire. As I watch you prepare and press the wild flowers, I’m remind of my quiet moments of making a lei. Mahalo for sharing joy and peace.
You are such a beautiful spirit. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Your videos popped up on my feed this week...so I gave look and they are wonderful...you really have a knack for this kind of medium...one great plus is you have a perfect voice for narration! I look forward to viewing future videos! Good luck and safe travels .
Welcome to the channel! I appreciate the sweet words. :) Thank you for subscribing!!
Hey maddie..I love hearing the rain on the van it’s so soothing. Your such an amazing artist I would snap up your art in a heartbeat! Thank you for allowing me to be on this adventure with you and your beautiful fur baby..take care and lots of love to you both xx💖💕💖💕
Such a relaxing, calming video. As usual. Thank you.
So many beautiful views and peaceful moments. Loneliness has a way of becoming less lonely when you lean into it.
It's so inspiring when you show us your world. It's authentic, humorous, humble and sincere and often quite poetic. Best wishes from Germany, stay healthy and thanks for sharing this great journey with us.
I love going on these peaceful journeys with you. Eliza is SOOOOO cute when she curls up into a little "puppy ball." One of the many things I deeply appreciate about your videos and similar content is the still camera work. For years I have been weary of manipulative, jerky, restless camera moves in film and television (i.e.: flash cuts/ ADD editing/ wandering camera-- on a cooking show, no less!!)- longing for that timeless, "PBS" style of wholesome programming that just allows you to immerse in the material without trying to make it "more exciting." The material sells itself without cheap tricks. I love your chyrons, voice overs and framing- they are perfect details at the perfect time. Long-time professionals at major networks could learn something from you. :). You deserve the success you are having and I wish you the best. Onward and upward! :)
Wow, the filming, the editing, the narration. What a work of art. Very nice. Have great travels and experiences.
Loved seeing Eliza asleep on the bed with the rain coming down. Content and peaceful. 😌
Hello Maddie, l have just started watching your channel along with Anna's 'Anna Uncut' channel finding out you are both actually friends. I am enjoying both of your content very much. You are both so lovely that l am looking forward to watching more. You are very creative. Thank you for sharing. Jason from Melbourne Australia.
So many times alongside this delightful episode I wanted to make a supportive comment. Nevertheless, I was so pulled into the entirety of this sense tingling, heartfelt journey of yours that I gave the video my full enthralled attention. Gravity works.
Love the way you narrate your life’s stories
AZ is indeed a diverse refuge in winter but come summer the heat sucks you dry. Glad you could visit when it was at its best.
Wow! The videos just get better and better. I haven't mentioned Eliza in any of my previous comments. She is as incredible as your are and reminds me of my favorite previous Chocolate Lab that met a tragic death many years ago. I super love your alone videos, this is where your relationship with Eliza really shines. Most impressive on a cinematographic level was the poem, the fire and the sunset. Amazing!!!
I love that idea with the flowers!!! Waiting a few weeks will be hard tho!! haha so pretty!
The flower frame is so pretty and what a wonderful keepsake. Cactus flowers are pretty wonderful too. But I don't think they would fit in that pretty frame. Nature is wonderful.
The art lives inside you. God bless you all, Maddie!!!
Thanks for sharing the campsite with us.
It's so beautiful to find and feel at home anywhere in the world - thank you for sharing that with us - it's such medicine in our current world. I make TH-cam videos in a similar spirit to yours (although I'm newer to it and while I have a lot of adventures, it's not quite van life) and I can't tell you how much I appreciate other creators that show up with beautiful authenticity - keep up the good work!
P.S. Come to New Mexico - it will also surprise you and blow you away with beauty!
your images provoke so much feeling. you have a rare gift. thank you for sharing
Oh, the flowers in the glass are so beautiful!! 🌸🌼🌿
Great video…. Your paintings are wonderful, thanks for sharing.
Lady, that was one of your best videos yet. Thanks for being such an awesome human.
You bring such beauty and serenity to life in your videos. I plan on looking for local flowers and a frame to attempt dried flowers. This may well be a new skill for me. Thank you!
Another fantastic video Maddie, thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful passions and skills. We're living a bit vicariously through your travels through the great SW desert regions as we wait impatiently for our trip south from Canada in May. I'd so love to be camped on that beautiful cliff, wherever it is!! Well done!
Wow. I sure enjoy your artistic abilities. Your filming and editing a and your love of natural beauty
Love your videos and thank you for sharing them. Looks amazingly fun to experience vanlife. ❤️💃🏻Stay safe out there though and watch your surroundings
Found you through Sara's channel your videos are really good and your art skills.🌹🌹👍👍🌵🌵
Maddie, I live in Payson north of Roosevelt Lake. We love it here & you captured the beauty of Arizona!
March in the desert is gorgeous!
Very cinematic!! Really beautiful video, Maddie. Thank you!
Love Mary Oliver, the watercolors, your flower pressing - you are wonderful & so was this video!! 💚💚
The sad part is we could all be living a happy life with no worries if not for the few greedy folks out there wanting more than they need . We need change in humanity to live peacefully and without worry just like in this video. One life one love enjoy ! .
You have reignited my love and interest in medicinal plants, thank you for these beautiful videos! Keep exploring and sharing, you never know who you are affecting.
I loved the crane water-colour. thanks for sharing.
I sure love your videos. Your artistic eye is truly a gift. Thank you for sharing it with us. Love to you and Eliza. Safe travels. Can’t wait to see the next video. I look forward to them.
You have such a soft soothing voice. I enjoy your videos very much.
Maddie, from what I have seen through your lens of Arizona it seems to be a wonderful place. Really unique habitats, animals, and plants. Did I ever ask you if you’ve ever seen a roadrunner while there? Anyway, your videography is always picturesque, elegant, a suitable for framing all rolled into a snippet of video. You are a very creative and talented person and watercolors are so beautiful. You have been blessed! :)
Another heartfelt beautiful video, Maddie. Thank you. ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it! :) This one was very special to me.
This is a great video! Thank you for reading to us :) and also showing the beautiful process to make a dried flower frame. I am going to try that also.
Thank you for these beautiful videos. They bring peaceful, soothing and heartwarming times to my hectic life 😊
So Happy you feel in love with our State. My wife and I moved here 7 years ago and were similarly surprised by the states diversity! Hope you do make it back, next winter perhaps? Maybe we wii see you on the road some time. If you see a middle aged couple waving at you and yelling hi, it’s probably us. Safe travels!
Love your works! You keep it busy and interesting. Thanks for sharing you with us!
Beautiful artwork and another beautiful video.
Wonderful video, thank you for sharing your experiences in Arizona with us. It is a very special place and there are so many things that people either never knew or have forgotten about Arizona. Have a wonderful drive to you next experiences. We will follow.
Hi Maddie and Eliza.. that is a beautiful photo of dry flower that your friend made. 🥰.
I love think you should sale your little pic drawing. These would be great post cards of your travels.
Quality time.
Like her way with books and poems, flowers, people, feelings. And all her ways.
I will try to read it myself.
I wish Maddie Taylor would read us a whole poems, every once in a while.
A poem reading from Maddie Taylor, is better than a thousand miles hike.
By the way, i am not an audience, rather a great fun.
You are so talented, shine on girl, shine on!!!
As I said in my other comments to you your videos calm and slow me down which I really needed. I had just watched Anna’s latest and was so upset ok pissed that that happened to her and how she was treated. Well Maddie to the rescue again, I am now feeling better now ! Btw love your artsy side I have been drawing for decades and own a metal sculpture business something about creating with your mind and hands is so fulfilling 🤔
You are a masterful and very delightful storyteller. Thank you.
You are so talented, your videos, your art and your knowledge of botany. For me your videos are so needed in this chaotic time .. I just want to say Thank you! ❤️
YOU and the sunset in a place like this... Who can ask for more in this life... Take care 💘
I’m definitely getting my flower presser out again. I have t just it nearly as much as I wanted to so thanks for the reminder. Safe travels and full throttle ahead 😺👍😃
Yay I’m so happy to hear this!!! ♥️
thanks for another lovely video, you have such a beautiful soul.
Maddie, such a great video, maybe the best one yet, seeing you growing on the road gives a lot of inspiration to others, best trails.
I enjoy your videos so much. You are absolutely amazing. I love the sound of your voice. Thank you for sharing your adventures
Maddy, your content is so entertaining, educational, and emotion filled. Safe travels. Tom and I are just getting into Zion. Any certain hikes you recommend? 😻🤗
Love your videos. Thank you for sharing your story and Eliza is so cute. Sandhill Cranes are beautiful birds and their migration is surely a spectacle to see.
Really beautiful video, think its one of my favourites of late well edited kind of poetic in some ways you definitely have a lovely way to bring a soothing calm to a troubled world, this was a really nice escape thank you Maddie.
That looks amazing you with the fire by the Canyon!
Arizona does get addictive doesnt it? Especially the cacti and flowers, canyons....especially everything! I never knew about that currentless river. The footage of it is most impressive. Especially the saguaros growing on the cliffs above it. Arizona is also a biodiversity hot spot as you now well know.
3:42. Love Cliff's art piece with the flowers and look forward to seeing what you will make. I am glad you inform your viewers that they must ensure they comply with local rules regarding wild flowers.
I really hope and pray that you get the opportunity to visit all the other biodiversity hot spots in the world and show them to your viewers.
11:06. I really like your sandhill cranes drawing. You ended your time on a real high note with your campsite aside the Grand Canyon as the darkness comes on.
You are such a good artist! If you ever need a break from traveling you could do watercolor painting tutorials.
Favorite scenes: Eliza steps out of the van, tail high; Eliza all curled up snug after your walk, a poem read at sunset, by the fire, next to a canyon in Arizona. Thanks. Safe travels.
Your video is a gift. Bless you 😊
Oh Mads.. such a beautiful tribute to your time in Arizona. You have such a poetic way of utilizing the natural world and story telling, and bring such beauty to your work. I’m so grateful that these videos give all of us an opportunity to see the world through your eyes and insights into your incredible life. I’m endlessly proud of you.. it’s ever expanding. I love you so much! The biggest hugs and kisses to my extraordinarily talented best friend xo Hannah banana
Really loving your videos. Your creativity is refreshing. Love the content.
Your artwork is beautiful.
I’m a new subbie, also from CA (Bay Area, originally the Central Valley). I enjoy your videos very much.
Beautifully filmed story!
I love your video's... always sas when time is up...
You are such a gifted artist...beautifull painted....bless you
Looks like we're going in the same direction these days. I just got done backpacking in the Grand Canyon yesterday and now I'm in Page and eventually heading into Utah to do all the parks there.
Your videos are so lovely Maddie. I enjoy the way you tell your story through art, nature and the modern lens. 😊😊
Your videos are great and so inspirational. I would love to rent a van for 2 weeks and just do what your doing, hiking, living well. Enjoying nature at its finest. My two dogs would love it too.
