I’ve gotten rid of all social media other than TH-cam (which is not what I call regular social media)…just bought several acres in the mountains near a hole-in-the-wall town in CO, and aim to slowly build a retirement cabin over the years…disconnected, surrounded by trees and nature; that’s what I call the good life. Cheers!
Congratulations, happy you are living your dream. I am hoping to buy land, it's my exact dream to build something on a small piece of land that is not bricks and stone. For now I solo part-time car camp around work, as another solo female and love being in nature. 🇬🇧
That’s amazing! I love that, I also deleted social media and I feel more grounded and present, (TH-cam is an exception for me lol) it’s a lot healthier mentally and emotionally for us. Congratulations on buying land in a beautiful state, enjoy😊
I know what you mean about civilization and not wanting to be around it. When I go shopping I just want to get in and out of there as quickly as possible. People generally just suck. LoL 😅 I do enjoy your videos because they remind me of my youth and hiking with my dog in the mountains. Thanks for sharing your journey with us!!
Pour the creamer in the mug first then pour the coffee in the pot you heated the creamer in and then pour the coffee in the mug on top of the cream. Makes clean up is so much easier and conserves water.
It takes a minute to settle into the pace of nature in a place. I like staying in places with no cell service. Tapping into the rhythm of the earth without distraction . Soul work.
I live in a XTerra and I have been watching you for what feels like a really long time now. I honestly do not understand why you don't have $250k-500k subs!!!! Your content is dope! Keep going!
Hi Rosa... you are always in beautiful places...and you made great video...Thank you so much and see you next video ... Bye ! i cannot imagine how cold was the water !!!!!!!!
Such a real, easygoing traveler - in exactly the same SUV camping style I have enjoyed for years. Thanks for sharing with us, your happy life Sans People! 😊
Just got home and saw you uploaded! Time to relax and watch you 😊 also the angles are so good, this place looks so beautiful and peaceful. That swim looked so refreshing and fun ❤
Another quality video. Lots of shots and angles. Hard work. Your food shots are crazy good! Keep doing this. You're really talented. Got that intangible quality. Thanks
Thank you for sharing your experience with) Many years i dream about exactly this car and exactly this lifestyle) may be other country and not such a long period) but i will realize this dream) and your videos are one of the reasons to do it
With a spot like that, I can't blame you for ever wanting to leave. And you found a great place to soak in some vitamin D after your cold plunges. That always feels amazing
8:31.... Always love watching your videos... Kinda wish I could do that.. but have to keep an eye on my dad ... It's just the two of us now.. in a house big house he is 83 .. so maybe someday but until then I'm glad to see someone else's having a good time... Be careful stay safe.....
Hey, I read your comment, and it made me emotional. I can relate, man.. Before I joined the road life, I was taking care of my parents for a 8 years. There's a time for everything. Now's the time to keep your eye on your dad. Your travel time will come, and it will become your reward if that's what you truly want. I don't know what else to say, other than, I get it, man.
@@mikemurphymagic I didn't have time to get back to you it's was kind of late last night when I noticed the message I thank you for reaching out and it's not so bad I mean my dad is a pain in my ass sometimes but it's okay he's always been that way now I'm kind of like the dad and he's the kid
The site looked great indeed also that hiking spot with the falls was amazing and i am sure even though the water was freezing it must have been refreshing. 😊 it's not you every day i get up to go to work i feel the same way just want to find a nice piece of land and just disconnect.. Thanks again for another great video looking forward to the next one as always . 😊
Kalama as in Washington, one of the most beautiful states in the union! I believe that is where you were. NICE job of capturing the scenic wonder of the place.
You're quite the waterfall collector, Rosa! You have an amazing spirit, and you know your element. I was afraid at 8:20 you were going to say you were leaving your element, but, no, you gave it a big embrace! (all element puns intended) You're an inspiration. Thanks for sharing your path, the hikes, scenes and insight. Happy trails!
Oh my, that campsite looked awesome. I love being close to running water like that, especially when the water looks like that and not a muddy mess. This just looks like a surreal spot compared to what I normally see on my hikes. Thanks again for another great video showing these amazing spots to visit.
I love mossy green places! My favorite places to be. I totally understand your want to spend more and more time in nature. We truly need it. I'd live like you in a heartbeat, if I could. But I'd probably still not be able to submerge myself into water that cold. 😂 ❤
I watched over half the video, and even though i knew you said Kalama, my donkey brain kept tricking me into thinking you were freezing water frolicking at Koosah and Sehalie Falls up the McKenzie River which is one of my favorite nearby quick dip out sanctuaries to soul reset and wash the city's cluttered pace and din from aforementioned donkey brain...Upper and Lower Kalama, at first glance...clear thru to eleventh glace...appear to be a mesmerizing analog to Koosah and Sehalie. Love your vids. It's pleasant to experience someone simply being content with being where they are. I love donkeys too ;) Wander on traveler. Thanks for sharing the moments.
Kalama Falls reminds me of the Falls of Rauros of the River Anduin. I'm glad Elrond got you to the trailhead safely! The color of the upper pools is stunning and the sound of the water flow is glorious! Cold water is very healing too. Your "leftovers" looks extremely palatable (tastier than waybread I imagine). I guess if you don't want to see people except may be some dwarves, you can hide in Khazad-dûm. Thanks for sharing this very beautiful adventure! That low roar of the water while sleeping must have been so peaceful and restful. Your wisdom to "disconnect from cell service" is so enlightening. See you in the next one.
Hi Rosa . Your surroundings are pristine ! Like pictures on a calendar . Do you have an under water metal detector ? Some of the places you go should produce lots of coins and jewelry . Something to think about and it's a lot of fun . Take care , have a good time !
Hi Rosa, another beautiful video with some amazing scenery, thank you and thank you for taking me places I never thought I would see, you are amazing, stay safe, all the very best from Nick in the UK x
Your photo and cinematic videos are amazing. You are one the best at this on TH-cam. This is something that you have talent for. I suggest you take wildness survival lessons. How to survive with little or no tech. These skills could save your life one day.
Rosa, I think we all need to go w/o cell service for a while or as long as we need too ! I just wanted to say watching your favorite movies and TH-cam videos, reading, hiking, and meditating for over and hour in nature is such a luxury few ppl can master; The art of being one self. Im def in the process of converting my 4Runner Willie Earl and hopefully recording it too.
These waterfall pool is spectacular. I would call you a lucky person to be there, but I know that it’s all your hard work to find places like this one :) lol
Now that ts my kind of camp site beside running water..... Nice swimming hole, but you were brave staying in that cold water..... Lucky for me when I went in the back country there were no cellphones & yeah II spent a lot of time at the river always feeling free because there were no people around..... Stay safe ❤
My parents always tell me stories of their 5 week honeymoon roadtrip and it's wild how they used paper maps for everything and didn't even have a cell phone lol times were simpler back then ❤️
😅😅😅😅- that reminds me of one time when I was a kid and I ran and jump into a lake up in Colorado- it was so cold that I couldn’t breath and I swear my heart stopped for a second. I believe it was called Beaver Creek Lake if I remember correctly.
I have that coffee maker. The handle does not handle heat well. I find that opening the lid while pouring makes less of a mess. I use the same amount of coffee but also heat some water to add making it weaker. I enjoy your cooking but perhaps show how you are making it. I am an old single guy so step by step would be good. Not a deal breaker for me, so no worries if you are not in the mood.
I’m also a solo camper and thru hiker . I do a lot of national park camping too just because I love them so much. I’m solo but travel with Sig Saur. Hope you do as well, there are seriously disturbing humans anymore. Animals are lovely out there but not all the humans are! Great video
I hike, camp and backpack mainly solo as a man and rarely see solo females other than near trailheads. One time on the Superior Hiking Trail, I had just finished my morning constitutional in the latrine which is just off trail, when I heard someone walking up to use it. Button my pants and find a woman standing there. Said hello and went on my way, ran into her later that morning and we chatted awhile, she was a local and I noticed a sidearm on her hip. I asked her is that for animals or people, she said "Yes". I told her I understand and advise the same for others as well, especially solo females. I recommend two friends, Smith & Wesson. 😉 I usually have bear spray on my hip and a sheathed knife hanging around my neck as well. More sketchy people incidents than animals in my experience too and the one animal was a dog off leash...which was a people problem.
@@thesuperioraffection4502 I’ve never had an animal encounter that was dangerous, I’ve seen bear far off from me and we were separated by a good lake! I like it that way. I have encountered some weirdo humans and unarmed I’d have been very afraid. I’ve never pulled my weapon on a human while on travel/ I did to a home invader. I have used bear mace to get a man following me to comprehend when I said get the eff gone I meant it. He just stayed too close for me . He was clearly able to pass and continue on as he’d had caught up to me. He tried to talk and I was very blunt. I said I’m a woman alone in the woods , no offense but I’m not here to meet men and I’d like you to go on. He insisted he should keep me safe. I don’t need help! After about 2 hours I needed to pee and he was still about and was going to remain. I said I’m done go on or - I aimed that crap and he said “you wouldn’t dare” I said try me and he quick stepped my direction and I let loose bear mace. If he wasn’t a creep, oh well. Needless to say he was rendered useless and I hastily made my way to another trail and luckily many hikers were on that trail. I hate California as it’s the only place I’ve had real issues that spooked my inner creep sensor. That man shook my soul. I gave him every chance and every nice word to encourage him to carry on. If you ask me, he asked for it. I provided. I’m sure he won’t be bear maced before sorting out a situation ever again.
@@thesuperioraffection4502 I do readily show the sidearm so while I don’t need to make it known I have put my hand on it to point it , I’m armed. If people smell like rusty old cans they smoked smeth. I found that out also in California. Those people make me nervous as well …also worry about their skin touching anything I’ll touch. 😳
@@israelizzyyarrashamiaak766 Sorry to hear you've had 2 legged predator problems. Thankfully you kept it from becoming a bigger problem. The first incident I had when I lived in Mpls, I had a couple of sketchy incidents near a local lake popular for biking and hiking. Trails that were in the woods were less frequented so once in awhile there'd be some unsavory folks up to no good. That first incident I was out there and met a guy and I said hello in passing. He didn't respond and I immediately could tell something was off. I looked over my shoulder in about 10 seconds and he had turned around and was following me. I had nothing with me other than water and my keys as I walked from my apartment nearby. It was a trail with only two exits and I kept thinking I would run into an accomplice as I walked faster. I started jogging an eventually lost sight of him and thankfully no accomplices. Learned my lesson and always carried my phone, pepper spray and knife after that (Hadn't made friends with Smith or Wesson at that time). I met a solo traveler woman in Theodore Roosevelt NP in ND 6 years ago, and she lived in Mpls as did I. We hung out for the day in the park and had dinner a few weeks later and kept in touch for awhile. She mainly traveled solo as well, it's something I really admire in a woman. Haven't hiked in CA, since getting into it in 2012 I have REALLY wanted to see Yosemite and the Sierras up close and in person and perhaps do the JMT someday, but I have settled for home state adventures along with the Rockies, Tetons, Black Hills, and earlier mentioned TRNP.
❤ congratulations on accomplishing fulfillment with simplicity very inspiring how videos are stellar thanks for the hidden gems and relate profoundly with the social sentiments take care ❤
omfg that campsite is so lush and beautiful! And I love the feeling you get when you find your favorite campsite is AVAILABLE! :) You looked especially happy. Your food segments inspire me, but I hate doing dishes! Maybe it's worth it!? Rosa, I have a request!!! -- Maybe you could show how you do your meal cleanup / dishes. :) And finally, unfortunately, I need cell service for my digital work. I need to respond to clients quickly. So I'm limited where I can go. Sadness. Despair. :( I wish I could retreat to the wilderness for a week. Rosa, I will TRY to create to no-cell-service life, ok?! You inspired me. Maybe I'll hire a manager! haha. I agree with you about cities and 'burbs -- I stay away from them, now. But small-town life -- by a beautiful mountain lake (Tahoe) -- for a couple years ... isn't so bad for now. :)
I don't want to show how I clean my dishes because y'all will judge me 😂 I usually just boil water in the dirty pots/pans and then wipe them out with paper towels. I also just don't use a lot of dishes! I'm not fully off grid!! I also need service to post my videos so I understand completely ❤️
I've camped near a loud river couple of times and on the beach with the sound of waves.......I always wake up and I'm still tired, even though I slept all night.
I’ve gotten rid of all social media other than TH-cam (which is not what I call regular social media)…just bought several acres in the mountains near a hole-in-the-wall town in CO, and aim to slowly build a retirement cabin over the years…disconnected, surrounded by trees and nature; that’s what I call the good life.

That's so freaking cool! I love that ❤️ I hope it goes well!!
All I have is yt and twitch, but I only watch one girl on there (lilsimsie) and Pinterest for house inspo😂
Very cool to disconnect....love it !
That’s amazing! I love that, I also deleted social media and I feel more grounded and present, (TH-cam is an exception for me lol) it’s a lot healthier mentally and emotionally for us.
Congratulations on buying land in a beautiful state, enjoy😊
OMG!! Rosa, this campsite is so beautiful!! I need to put this place on my list!
You and me both!!! She finds the best spots❤❤
I know what you mean about civilization and not wanting to be around it. When I go shopping I just want to get in and out of there as quickly as possible. People generally just suck. LoL 😅 I do enjoy your videos because they remind me of my youth and hiking with my dog in the mountains. Thanks for sharing your journey with us!!
Yes, exactly!! I get kinda overwhelmed by a ton of people. I hope you're still out there hiking 😊
“Sweating just existing.”
Rosa is giving us pearls folks.
Wow I really can’t wait to get to the PNW! Everything looks so enchanting! You did an amazing job!
Come visit 😊 let's hang out!
Great video. You find the most awesome places to camp, to explore and to rejuvenate. Cold water is good for your body.
Thank you!! I try my best ❤️
Awesome videos with a beautiful lady with an fantastic personality !🥰 Thanks for sharing your day! Video makes me get motivated to go hiking again!
Beautiful campsite.....👍👍
Wow this is breathtaking and beautiful
You are so lovely and natural and a great communicator thank you Rosa 🙃
You're very sweet, thank you ❤️
Most people are not ready to disconnect. They need the Media to tell them what to do. 😊 Splendid video. Thank you! 🙂
Definitely one of the big issues in our world 🤷♀️ I'm glad you understand!!
Thanks for sharing gorgeous waterfall 💙

Absolutely ❤️
Thanks for showing some of the beauty that is out in the Northwest!❤
You are the master at finding the most amazing locations !
I saw an element while I was out yardsaling this weekend and I thought of you lol
Elements are the best ❤️
what a beautiful place in the forest big love from sweden stay safe 🥰
Awesome views all of them 820p 1 12 24 really like the way you do your videos your cooking 🍳 is spot on 😊
thanks for sharing, Nice place !
Great spot for camping! It’s hard for me to imagine camping somewhere without water, like a river or lake.
I live in a XTerra and I have been watching you for what feels like a really long time now. I honestly do not understand why you don't have $250k-500k subs!!!! Your content is dope! Keep going!
Hi Rosa... you are always in beautiful places...and you made great video...Thank you so much and see you next video ... Bye ! i cannot imagine how cold was the water !!!!!!!!
It's was really really cold but also super fun. Definitely will be doing a lot of polar plunges this summer ❤️
That’s a beautiful area! Wish I was there.❤
You’re a great TH-camr!
Aww thank you 🥹❤️
Those leftovers look darn fab ❤🇦🇺
Beautiful camp site, Rosa. And I need start using my Moka pot
What a beautiful video to see when traveling the US roads
Great video as always. The peace and solitude allowing you time to reflect is truly healing. Your food looked tasty. The scenery was top shelf.
Thank you!! ❤️
you have the coolest vibe, just wanted to say that
Well thank you!! ❤️
PS luved your bedtime rambel super cute!
Thank you ❤️ I'm glad I have y'all to listen to me!!

Loved your honesty about the water temperature 😂 Stunning pond but freezing 🥶 😅
It's too hot for hot springs so it's freezing cold water season now 😂

Watching these in my Ebox makes me want to venture- I agree with you civilization & dealing with people:)
😆 😅 she is funny. I was saying that water must be cold 🥶Just stay safe darling.
you should try a place called Anahim Lake B.C. its a amazing there in the summer time
I watched over half the video, and even though i knew you said Kalama, my donkey brain kept tricking me into thinking you were freezing water frolicking at Koosah and Sehalie Falls up the McKenzie River which is one of my favorite nearby quick dip out sanctuaries to soul reset and wash the city's cluttered pace and din from aforementioned donkey brain...Upper and Lower Kalama, at first glance...clear thru to eleventh glace...appear to be a mesmerizing analog to Koosah and Sehalie. Love your vids. It's pleasant to experience someone simply being content with being where they are. I love donkeys too ;) Wander on traveler. Thanks for sharing the moments.
Kalama Falls reminds me of the Falls of Rauros of the River Anduin. I'm glad Elrond got you to the trailhead safely! The color of the upper pools is stunning and the sound of the water flow is glorious! Cold water is very healing too. Your "leftovers" looks extremely palatable (tastier than waybread I imagine).

Trails that were in the woods were less frequented so once in awhile there'd be some unsavory folks up to no good. That first incident I was out there and met a guy and I said hello in passing. He didn't respond and I immediately could tell something was off. I looked over my shoulder in about 10 seconds and he had turned around and was following me. I had nothing with me other than water and my keys as I walked from my apartment nearby. It was a trail with only two exits and I kept thinking I would run into an accomplice as I walked faster. I started jogging an eventually lost sight of him and thankfully no accomplices. Learned my lesson and always carried my phone, pepper spray and knife after that (Hadn't made friends with Smith or Wesson at that time).
I met a solo traveler woman in Theodore Roosevelt NP in ND 6 years ago, and she lived in Mpls as did I. We hung out for the day in the park and had dinner a few weeks later and kept in touch for awhile. She mainly traveled solo as well, it's something I really admire in a woman.
Haven't hiked in CA, since getting into it in 2012 I have REALLY wanted to see Yosemite and the Sierras up close and in person and perhaps do the JMT someday, but I have settled for home state adventures along with the Rockies, Tetons, Black Hills, and earlier mentioned TRNP.
I mean I really love your videos and watch all of them no matter what the thumbnail is. But still I love how pretty your thumbnails are

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
omfg that campsite is so lush and beautiful! And I love the feeling you get when you find your favorite campsite is AVAILABLE! :) You looked especially happy. Your food segments inspire me, but I hate doing dishes! Maybe it's worth it!? Rosa, I have a request!!! -- Maybe you could show how you do your meal cleanup / dishes. :) And finally, unfortunately, I need cell service for my digital work. I need to respond to clients quickly. So I'm limited where I can go. Sadness. Despair. :( I wish I could retreat to the wilderness for a week. Rosa, I will TRY to create to no-cell-service life, ok?! You inspired me. Maybe I'll hire a manager! haha. I agree with you about cities and 'burbs -- I stay away from them, now. But small-town life -- by a beautiful mountain lake (Tahoe) -- for a couple years ... isn't so bad for now. :)
I don't want to show how I clean my dishes because y'all will judge me 😂 I usually just boil water in the dirty pots/pans and then wipe them out with paper towels. I also just don't use a lot of dishes! I'm not fully off grid!! I also need service to post my videos so I understand completely ❤️
So pretty there, who wouldn't want a river in their backyard 😂. Do you see yourself always traveling?
I hope so. This lifestyle makes me so happy and I don't know what else to do...
you sure are brave swimming in that cold water
I love getting out of service, not really hard in NW. Montana.The suns open! earliest since 2005 I think.
Wait seriously??? That's so early, I love it!
I've camped near a loud river couple of times and on the beach with the sound of waves.......I always wake up and I'm still tired, even though I slept all night.
There's definitely certain weather and noise that makes me just want to stay in bed all day ❤️
Enjoy the food babe❤
