    You tubers Carry and Dave (one adVANture at a time) went to Newfoundland this summer (3 months). If u want to get a good review of there and ferries. I went to Nova Scotia this summer but found it too expensive for me. But I loved the whale watching and the Cape Briton Na Park. Which is set up very differently that the US Na Parks I’ve seen. But I also recommend the Adirondacks in upper New York ( lots of free camping). The green mountains of Vermont. The White mountains of New Hampshire. And oh my the winder free camping public lands of Maine. Moose Head lake is gorgeous. Then the Cutler public land over by Machias (that little town is fabulous and has two overnight parking areas right on the river. And has gorgeous rapids and waterfalls right in town. All of the places have no restrictions on dogs. As long as they are leashed or under control. Campobello island while technically Canada has a free national area where FDR’s family summered Beatutiful homes you can tour for free. Whale watching from the lighthouse and little town just as you are at the bridge to cross over.

    The ferry to Newfoundland allows pets. We traveled with a number of travelers that had their dogs with them. I think you do need to reserve early to ensure you get a space that will accommodate the pup but it’s well worth considering. We found Newfoundland to be so amazing that we’re heading back this summer and adding a bit of Labrador to the plan.

    20:29 Hey there! I have been watching your videos for years. I dragged my wife into this lifestyle kicking and screaming on January 3, 2020. We started out just part time. On September 30, 2023 we sold our house and went to Michigan to work the beet harvest. Mostly for the experience. We are currently in Okeechobee Florida caring for my elderly father. If you get down this way we would love to take you out for dinner or lunch and chat. We are wonderers like you and would love to pick your brains!

    My dream place to live when no longer full timing is Tiny Tranquility in Waldport. And you are from that area. He is no longer taking people on a wait list, so I am disappointed. I did the maritimes in 2022, it was so amazing. You would love that. There were a lot of people on the tour I was on with pets. Even in the ferry. I feel the way you do….about stopping. I think my determining factor will be physical limitations. So far so good, but I am 75. Loading the bike on the rack and setting up camp alone and breaking down gets old by myself, I can still do it, so who knows. Great video!!!😊

    • @justlucky13
      @justlucky13 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I love the Oregon coast we have a vacation house between Seal rock and Waldport.
      Tiny Tranquility is a nice community if full go there and find another spot on the coast or upriver on the Alsea lots of places to put a tiny house I've noticed extra small almost tiny homes in Bayshore if you want the clubhouse, pool, ocean and Alsea Bay views???

    Great discussion about traveling. Going many places living in a tight space works with the perfect partner. We started from FL and enjoy the Oregon coast. Yes, mostly in Mar to Jun. Winters in desert south are wonderful, less crowded, unlike here in FL. Perhaps in your next travels south, we can meet up at Satchels Pizza in Gainesville? Be here until mid-Mar.

    • @CareyOnVagabond
      @CareyOnVagabond  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I love your insights. We are retired and go on 3 week trips, then come home to Ohio, which is nice in summer, but winters are depressing. We are doing a trip to Upper Florida in January. I'd like to go further south, but it's such a long state, and we're already tired of driving by the time we get there. We try to do at least a couple of long bikepacking trips a year. I agree about the crowds at National Parks. Check out Theodore Roosevelt, north unit. It's pretty quiet. There is a BLM campsite right outside the entrance, and the Maah Daah Hey trail leaves from the campsite, although you've probably already been there.

    • @CareyOnVagabond
      @CareyOnVagabond  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Great video!! Use to think when you sold your van you weren’t honest with your viewers about the truck camper but now I realize it was more about the adventures than the vehicle and maybe why you didn’t seem as happy is because you might have been getting bored and needed a change?

    One of my favorite videos of yours is when Dave got the drone, and you were boondocking in the desert. I also enjoy watching Irene cook and am forever impressed that she was able to cook the way she did in the van's tiny kitchen.
    If you get a chance to visit any of the Keys in Florida (in addition to Key West), I'd love to see them. Also, I've always wanted to do some of the historical stuff on the East Coast, though it might be too "people-y". But a visit to Jamestown, Roanoke Island, Tybee Island, the battlefields of Gettysburg...those kind of places fascinate me.
