Thank you Nicky, I have lived and worked in Curry Village in summer of 2017, as a busser, a server, a pizzaiolo, in the ice cream and coffee corner, pretty much on every spot. Every now and then I reminisce about that amazing summer, with tens and hundreds of friends I made from all over the world, the hot nights and cold beers accompanied by beautiful music almost everyone there made. When I get tired at the office I beat myself up many times for not recording the walk I took to work everyday, the places I spent my nights and places I hung out with friends in Yose. Now that I am living and working about 10,000 km away makes it even more nostalgic for me, especially being that it was my only time in the U.S. Every now and then I searched any footage to take me back but I never found much, but your video Nicky has done just that, I lived it again. I am grateful to you.
Thank you for the great comments! Glad it brought back some memories for you, i noticed that youtube didnt have much on curry village so i was always going to make this video as part of the trip. Thanks again for watching👍
Wow, what memories. In 1967 while at college in Michigan I took a train to Yosemite and worked in the cafeteria! And stayed in a non heated tent with wooden floor. Much updated in facilities since then of course but the scenery hasn’t changed!
Thanks mate! We loved our stay there, id definitely stay again. I did that walkaround really early in the morning so not as many people around. Enjoy mate look forward to the pictures👍
My sister worked here back in the day during the summer while going to college in Chico CA. She passed away in 2008 from Cancer she was 47 years old kind of sad to watch this I miss her very much.
Just applied for 3 jobs...I'm dying to work out here...my mom's a little overprotective though, not really down for me to do it...but I'm 18 and already have my applications turned in. EDIT:- almost a year later....I GOT THE JOB! STARTING NEXT MONTH! IM SO EXCITED 🙌🏾😆🌲
I don't know if you ever heard from anyone, but I overheard them talking a few days ago about getting ready to have a huge hiring event for the restaurant there. Good luck. Everyone who works there are such great people-really!
@@cleverstephy wow I totally forgot I even commented this...I JUST GOT HIRED YESTERDAY!!!! after trying and trying and trying!!!! I didn't give up! I'll be starting next month!🙌🏾💜🌲
Beautiful and I'm sure it smells so good with all those trees. Good call Claire, your own cabin with your own bathroom! That's the way to do "camping!" 😁
Worked in the store 1990......low pay then and you paid for everything. Biscuits and gravy best breakfast...A bear came in the deli one day... A mountain lion was on the Merced River bridge one night...on your day off they will pack you a lunch and you grab a free bike.....the white tents are sweet....if you pass a bathroom use it!!!!!!! They hire from 16 years to when you drop!!! village store is way bigger now......good library!!! Eat one night at the Ahwanee Bye!
Very interesting! Thanks for sharing! I don't recall the exact location but I think it was fairly close to the Ahwahnee. I stopped in a sandwich/coffee shop and spoke with the cashier and my brother asked if the pay was well and the cashier stated that it was way more than they deserve and that he lived in a apartment, with no rent, that was a walking distance of 5 minutes. I love it there and definitely want to go back soon!
Awesome tour. Very informative of what the village looks like and the process to check in etc. I'm staying in Curry village on my trip to Yosemite in a couple weeks. Hopefully the temps cool off some
Keep watching this in Lockdown for a bit of escapism. Brilliant vlogs. Funny and informative. You and Matt Bridger are easily the best vloggers. Keep up the good work when normality resumes 👍

@@nickyfurmage you're welcome. My pleasure.
There used to be more cabins but there was a landslide that wiped the majority of them out.
Just applied for 3 jobs...I'm dying to work out here...my mom's a little overprotective though, not really down for me to do it...but I'm 18 and already have my applications turned in.
EDIT:- almost a year later....I GOT THE JOB! STARTING NEXT MONTH! IM SO EXCITED 🙌🏾😆🌲
Good luck, it would be a cool place to work👍
@@nickyfurmage thank you...I still haven't gotten a call back, but they start to bring ppl in after memorial day
