    I’m Amanda and Frank is my co-pilot. We have lived in a van for 10+ years. I am a photographer and forager. We enjoy hiking, camping, paddle boarding, climbing and being outside as much as we can. We have countless stories and lessons to share and are always trying to learn new skills and improve in many aspects of life. Thank you for coming along.

    Thank you for joining me for this special topic video 💜 I really enjoy the challenge of making videos like this one and my one on frugal living which you can watch here: th-cam.com/video/2BC2O_Yqvww/w-d-xo.html
    Its a challenge because filming nature is what comes naturally to me and while I’m not the most concise I do plan out these video and try to include some nature footage so you’re not just watching me talk the entire time. I hope you find it interesting and I’m looking forward to editing and sharing the three adventure video from Haida Gwaii I currently have filmed. See ya soon!

      I have great respect for TH-cam creators. Even more today as I just spent 14 hours making a video. Grant me it was my first long video. Just a challenge I wanted to accomplish for a long time now as I've been working on my self-esteem and fears.
      Thank you for all the countless hours you put in to your videos.

      I ALWAYS watch your vids to the end 😊Sometimes I wake up to a dead phone with my headphones still on, but at least it played all the way through! Then I have to go back later to rewatch so I don’t feel like I missed it. As for questions/suggestions:
      I know you’re very busy but maybe you can teach us a few things as you’re doing them, eg. how you make a fire and put it out, how you identify what you forage and how you preserve it, how you handle wildlife that gets too close, how to ‘leave no trace’ etc. Speak to us like we’re completely clueless because some of us really are and would need a guide or mentor. Much thanks and love to you Amanda!❤

    I'm new to your chanel. I'm a 71 year old woman and I am totally shocked at how sharp and professional you are with your chanel!! You are so articulate about the process of utube and how you have built your business and fan base. You are a determined young savy business woman. You should take time to pat yourself on the back. Also take time off every now and then so you don't get burn out which is an a occurring theme in my own life. God Bless you on your journey!! You are Amazing!

I like the variety of topics you share because it is interesting to see all aspects of your unique style of Vanlife. I’m glad viewers help you with Frank and your van. And you don’t have to stoop to the fake scenarios that some do. All creators work hard, I’m not criticizing. I appreciate that keeping simple is important to you more than going big. People are struggling so much today and I point to you as someone that lives simply and happily. ❤✌️🚙

    That was super interesting, thanks for talking with us about all the things you piece together to make this a sustainable career. Man alive, there are so many stunning video clips you shared with us. Those northern lights were so beyond the norm! Frankie breathing deeply, drifting into sleep with his lil tongue peeking out is so sweet. This was a great looking video and I love that you gave us those wonderful images to look at as you kept talking. Oh, one more comment: I don't feel anything negative or boring when you interject with a promotion for a sponsored product. The main reason is that you never promote something you wouldn't buy yourself, and second, you're very transparent about explaining from time to time how these sponsor deals help sustain your living costs. There are some TH-camrs who promote every product that comes along and I don't waste my time with those channels.

    As a creator myself it’s extremely heartbreaking, especially when people in your close circle don’t consider this work. I’m also building my business by myself as well as studying TH-cam art videos to improve my skill as an artist.
    As much as I love my decision in moving into my van and pursuing my art, it’s exhausting, doing everything as a one woman show. So thank you so much for also acknowledging all of this and putting it in such an articulate manner.
    Just listening to you is giving me wind beneath my wings.

    I think almost anything can be made interesting in film with editing and a good soundtrack and/or voice over. Even things like watching you edit your video, answer emails/write patreon posts, talk to sponsors, or filling envelopes. Whole videos of that could get boring, but giving a taste here and there wouldn't hurt, I think.

    Print on demand companies do usually offer direct printing and shipping to the customers so you don’t have to do that. You can even ad a personal message with each order.

    Holy crap...I didn't realize how much time you spend editing. At 27.23 or abouts you were picking some leaves that looked like raspberries. I have a bush type thing that the leaves look like this but I got it half dead from my brother and he doesn't know what it is of course lol! Are they raspberry leaves? Another question...do we need to watch the entire ad on your videos for you to get money?

    • @tidelinetoalpine
      @tidelinetoalpine  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      😆 it’s a lot, especially because I don’t make short videos. Ideally I would be able to afford to make less video but put even more time into them and learn new editing tricks but right now I’m trying to balance creative enjoyment and actually making money.

    I have a few You Tubers that I follow each week, and I can honestly say that you are my favorite. Your content is interesting; your story telling, your opinions, observations; your videos are stunning. But this is all true, as *you* are an interesting human/profound. This was extremely interesting, even though I do not plan to become a Y Tuber, I still found it very interesting, all that goes into a life/career such as yours. I would love to hear more stories/videos like this, I think you have a lot to impart. I've said this before, and perhaps I'm in the minority of viewers on this, but I think hearing your reviews/reflections on books you read would be really interesting. I also love it when you explain about the various trees, plants, ecosystems, rocks, geology, etc. that you come upon. Anyway, your channel is top notch! Hugs to you and Frank x

    This was a great update. About halfway through I thought "oh, Amanda is an entrepreneur!"

I am one of your happy patrons - you are amazingly generous with what you share. I'm grateful I have a life where I can afford to help your creative lifestyle! And - I'm lucky I ordered stickers when I did, I treasure the "live" Frank paw print!

I tried them this spring, by making them into my own fettuccine, it was work rolling it thin, but i made a nice Alfredo sauce, to top my cooked noodles and it was amazing. i have also made it into tea, it takes the stress of the day away, very nice and relaxing. foraging is so much fun, glad to see some one interested in it too !

    I've had this bad relationship with TH-cam. I have another channel with almost 10K subs, monetized for 5 years and it feels like I've been blocked online as time wore on. It makes me some money every month but my latest video on that channel was a huge eye opener for me. I can't spend the hours it takes to make pennies again. I will always enjoy filming and creating. I'm just going to spend more time doing what I want to do, opposed to doing what I think the algorithm wants out of me. That BS is over lol. Thanks for sharing.

      Yes create for you, the algorithm is a cruel and mysterious mistress 😂 it’s always changing. One day it’s happy with you and next there’s no doing anything right. Infinitely frustrating. It’s definitely a grind but at least if you create what you feel stoked on you’ll always have that and who knows maybe that will end up doing better in the long run.

    Another TH-camr mentioned to, "Watch the videos all the way to the end. It makes a difference in the algorithms!!!" So, I do that now!
    Also, I listen to the ads for atleast 10 to 15 seconds beyond the 5 or 10 seconds of when the 'Skip Video' sign comes up. You get money this way! If it is an obnoxious ad, or I've heard it too many times ... I turn the volume down. Or, I let the ad play out - I leave the room to get something, or I'm cooking, or something else.
    I've got your back, Amanda!

    My other channel is monetized and it is basically a full-time job if you plan on getting anywhere. I don't have any sponsors at this time so all my money is from TH-cam ads or a purchase from my website. Last month was my best month ever and I almost made $200 but this month is doing a bit below average with only $20 estimated earnings. Just bought a couple stickers also.
