Traveling safe as a GAY COUPLE | RV LIVING full time

  • Today we're discussing the decision to leave Northern California and head to Palm Springs instead of continuing down the Pacific Coast. A few years ago we did a two week from trip down the PCH stopping in Big Sur and all the epic places along the way. We couldn't believe how much it has changed since in that short time and rather than "sucking it up" and just getting through it, it was important that we honor what makes us feel the most comfortable.
    We hope that you enjoy this video, if you did…please make sure to give it a thumbs up, leave us a comment, and share it with someone who you think will find it interesting. This support helps our channel tremendously and allows us to continue to grow our community. There isn’t a lot of visibility online for a gay couple living on the path to minimalism through rv life, van life, tiny house living (or whatever you want to call this adventure). Please help up share the message of positivity, representation, and the values of living minimally FAR and WIDE!
    Who are we?

    Hi guys...we just wanted to quickly say that by no means are we saying that Northern California/Coast is not a place you should visit. You absolutely should, it's beautiful. Howerer, as we mentioned in the video our safety has to be our most important priority and sometimes you just have to follow your gut. We really hope that you enjoy this Sunday's video, much love you guys! 💛

Can you guys image I could walk from the hospital I worked in our capital in the middle of the night after a shift and be safe? I so wasn't used to being threatened that it took a while for me to get used to. It's insane but reality.

    Hi Boys my name is Mark. My husband and I live in Tampa Florida. I never never make public comments or opinions since everyone has one. Lol. However I feel a compelled to tell you how impressed we are with your life choices. You're living for today and planning for tomorrow. Most people don't do that. They either live for today, only, or plan for tomorrow, only, not both. We placed heavy emphasis on the planning for tomorrow part and didn't start really living until we were in our forties. I'm an electrical engineer and my husband is an architect. We saved and invested since college and now I'm retired at 50 and Charles decided to continue to work from home. We spend our money on traveling heavily around Europe but after watching your well developed videos we feel we're missing a great deal in our country. It's wonderful to see another gay couple living life and doing it smartly while enjoying each other's company. Thanks for sharing yourselves and your travels with the world. You guys are the best. Mark

    When it comes to safety when travelling, I think you did the right thing to follow your gut instinct (or use your 'street smarts', as some call it). It might be different if you had two Rottweilers instead of those gorgeous Retrievers.

You two because of who you love and others cause of skin color. There are a lot of people out there that look down on people like me. I am Indian from the Colville Confederated Tribes in Central Washington State. There is a lot of hatred around. I think that is why I love you two. Your videos make me feel good and make me think that perhaps one of these days we can all treat each other with respect. I better stop. Love you two. Take care🐾❤️

    "How beautiful you two are," I say this because I am little older probably a lot because I was a teen in the 80's, and lived with the horror of what HIV & Aids to my generation as gay men. However, not to be melancholy of that part of time in history of my life. Now I can let go of most of all that hurt , ugliness & put it the past where it belong. Yes, not to forget those we I lost but see and enjoy the beauty of today. In short, I can be happy, content, and proud not prideful of being born a gay man in America again. Sincerely thank you for sharing your travels guys. Myron. PS: safety is always first it's not cowardly to walk way in that heated moment when other people have chosen ignorance, hate, bigotry or simply refuse any kind of understanding because of our sexuality. Also, sometimes its best to choose your battle in a difference time & place if you must.

    If you haven't had your jack fixed yet try hooking it up to the truck, wind all the other jacks up but wind the bent one down until it just touches the ground then try backing the whole thing back slowly. It should straighten. You may have to take it off the truck and lower the front once it is straight in order to wind it back up again. Anyway, good luck and stay safe!

    • @tylerandtodd

    OK I left my ass off on this one….. ! Between the detour to the pee bottle discussion to the picture of I think it was Eddie with his head mushed against the door asleep as it was bouncing bouncing bouncing on the road was just too funny! As soon as I saw you guys in the hot tub I really hope that that was your Christmas card to family and friends because it was a beautiful portrait of both of you. I’m just so impressed with what you guys do ….oh! I,be been meaning to tell you the drone shots are wonderful and just beautiful and clearly a testament to your videography skills…. Love the sleepy morning wake up calls it just feels like I’ve known you guys forever and just thank you. Thank you!

    Tyler and Todd,
    Like the 2 of you, my partner, David and I have been together for over 10 years, (albeit we are a little older, let’s just say we are both over 50!) but I wanted to share that the 2 of us find it so refreshing to see the love that you 2 so openly express for each other!
    We look forward to seeing each new vlog post, not only to see your continuing adventures, but to see the 2 of you and the loving interplay that you share with us all!
    Of all that is available for young gay viewers on the internet, you two Gentlemen are the MOST positive visage of what OUR lives truly should represent as gay men and a gay couple in particular!!
    You two are a gift and a blessing to those young people who do not have enough examples in this world of what a loving, caring, intelligent and yes, responsible gay male couple could, can and should be!!
    My David and I thank you and send you our love to both you as well as your boys, Charlie and Eddie!!
    Safe travels and happy adventures!!
    😘❤️

    thanks for these videos which take me down my own "memory lane"! I've driven along the California coast from San Diego to Bakersfield, before heading back east by way of Grand Canyon on my way back to Manitoba; and I've driven from Vancouver down the Oregon Coast all the way to the Redwoods on a 2nd trip, and then through the midwest back to Saskatchewan ... both were beautiful experiences ... with the one exception of a tent-camping stop at the base of Mt. St. Helens, which was over-run with "bikers" ... the negative memory of that campsite was of going to take a shower, and every shower stall was filled with excrement!

    Omg I loved this video. As a trucker here in america I definitely recognized many things you guys pointed out. First being yreka. I love that area because MT. Shasta is near there in the town of Weed California. Small town, nice people and there's a travel stop called pilot. One of the major truck stops we trucker use. Good for parking your RV there. Same with the loves. I use that truck stop all the time. I'm actually parked here commenting on this video haha. A good amount of truck stops will have RV parking in the front parking lot. TA travel stops, Loves, Pilots and flying J's. All good places to park. If you can try to avoid the truck lot. Not saying you cant park there but some truckers are rookies at backing in and I've seen incidents where someone would wake up and find more than half the front of there truck spread across the parking lot. I spend weeks to months on the road trucking just me and my dog. He's a border collie/golden retriever mix. 8 years old. Walmart's usually allow parking but for us truck drivers there starting to not allow us to park there anymore. If we do we get booted. Not sure if it's the same with RV parking so be careful on that. I would HATE to see you guys wake up with a boot on your truck or RV when they could of simply asked you to move your vehicle. But some wont. Definitely take safety precautions when traveling. Especially in an area your not familiar with. All and all Loved seeing this video always wanted an RV myself. Love the western side of the US. I'm from NY state. Hope to see more stay safe!

    Hey guys, a bit of a late reaction from me, but I just discovered your channel. I must say I love you both! And the channel! My BF and I have crisscrossed the whole of Europe for 30 years in our camper vans. We mostly spent the night at camperplaatsen (spots where you can stay for free in a camper and they’re in some of the most beautiful places). I can only remember one city in France that we felt so uncomfortable about that we left after dinner and spent a good deal of the evening finding a better spot. For the rest of the places we have visited, we never felt insecure. But then again we always had a very large and protective Hungarian Kuvasz dog with us and later also a, albeit smaller but just as protective, Dutch Friesche Stabij, wish I could include a picture of those two. No one could ever come near our camper without consent from us. Not even that bear up in the woods in Norway … That was scary though, but afterwards we felt pretty safe :-) I could tell you hundreds of stories. I do miss the traveling and the doggies …
    You also have dogs with you; how protective and vigilant are they?

    I just subscribed to your channel yesterday. My husband and I started RVing in 2017. The only time we felt even remotely unsafe, was in a 24 hour Walmart in Manhattan, Kansas. I'm careful about where I choose to camp, and usually have reservations ahead of time. Rarely stay in an independent RV park. It's true there are a lot of homeless in California, and certain urban areas are scarier than others. I've always felt that when we are travelling, we are the only gay couple out there, however we do belong to a gay RV group here. By the way, we live in Palm Springs. Congrats on doing this. By the way, I've never seen people emptying pee bottles on LA freeways, and I've lived here since the early 80s.
