Greetings from Colorado. Watched both episodes. Good for you what you're doing. It's good you appreciate these are your "golden years" as we never know where life is going to take us next. Have a great journey.
You have a very unique life and it's so Cool that your resume dovetails right into your jobs! Kudos! The Lighthouse "caretaker", the Ships caretaker, and Hotel Manager, and you are having fun while doing it!! The thing that gets me though, is that L O N G commute from the Hotel to the Ship... How do you handle it?? 😆😆😆😆! The Vaporous Guests are in most hotels that are over 100+ years old..... We have a few here at the Hotel Congress downtown, at the Copper Queen in Bisbee(I didn't get to see them...), and in my home town of Douglas, The Gadsden. I'd pay money😁 just to watch Casa Blanca, Key Largo, or any old B&W movies in the Ships "Theater".. lol! That would be a blast! Yes, I watched both "episodes". Again, very cool! Have fun and enjoy yourself!
I love that she lives completely outside society’s basic expectations of her and she loves that about herself and her life. She’s proudly doing what she’s passionate about. A beautiful woman, inside and out. Respect!
This is a very interesting video. She is living her best life. I might go stay in her hotel. Good food, facinscinating history and interesting company equals a really fun stay. ❤❤❤
I wonder if when she gets bored she starts channeling all her inner American horror story characters. But plays w/ her stuffed dolls instead. 🥴 I need to be studying. All my munchkins toys r gonna be my pretend residents. Or if I need the challenging kind, I'll just practice on my bb. Sigh, I wish I had enough funds to be this quirky.also, nevermind. I take that back. I'm not living on the freaking ocean. I'm not sure if I'd even live in that haunted hotel. But maybe. I'm broke. Let alone her kind of work. I already feel nauseous
Who else would love Desiree to have her own channel? Her uniqueness is such an inspiration and should be experienced or at the very least have an option to experience. She blows me away!!!! BTW, I'm new to this channel and love his content!!
I have one, I'm just so caught up in living out my life in the moment that capturing it, editing it & posting it are always an afterthought. Thanks for thinking my world is interesting enough that people would want more though! (blushes)
Desiree has got to be the coolest person ever. Her vibes are pure, her love for life and history is astounding. I would feel honored to be in her presence.
The moon controls nature. Idk y ppl don't think that we're not affected by it too. That planets and stars don't have energy in exchange for ours. Vice versa
Desiree is living the dream - her dream! What an uplifting, inspirational story from the most beautify city in the world! Here's hoping it returns to its full glory! I'd love to live in SF one day but alas - we cannot all be Inn Keepers living rent-free. The Bay Area is magical and I have many fond memories. Perhaps one day I, too, will return! Thank you for posting and Desiree, thank you for sharing your life with us!
I could listen to Desiree(sp?) talk about these amazing places for hours! You can tell she has a deeply rooted sense of gratitude and respect for these historic landmarks. I just moved to southern California about 2 years ago so my partner and I could be closer to his family and I have so many places I want to visit! I love cinema history and anything having to do with it so I am up to my eyeballs here 😂 Listening to Desiree talk about the synchronicities of life just makes me want to go out and find my own chips and make them fall into place.
What a great video. Showing the life of a very interesting lady. Her world, and the appreciation for history in her community. Great story, and some very nice folks.
I was so sad that Hotel Mac closed for a time but I'm so happy that it's reopened and busy. But, I didn't know anything about the ghost, or the General Manager. Such a good story.
Lovely to meet you Desiree, love your enthusiasm and lifestyle. I have to say you are a total natural on camera, you could easily have your own YT Chanel but maybe you wouldn't have the time for that. Future project?
This was phenomenal, Jonathan! Great reporting and production of an already fascinating story. Desiree is such a character too. I have to watch the other video you did on her now.
Yeah this is a bit odd. There's an entire video by the same channel dedicated to her life on "an Old World War II Cargo Ship" that, best as I can tell, makes no mention of the fact that she also lives here. I mean hey, I skipped around, maybe I missed it. But I'd expect this video to start with "Hey, we're following the same woman from the previous video and she **also** lives here!"
@literarynick She rotates around the two different properties. It says in the beginning she spends half the week at the ship and the other half at the hotel. There's a co ship keeper.
I absolutely LOVE this woman and her ADVENTUROUS Self! Golden opportunities have been gifted to her and she is the PERFECT person to hold court over them all.... with obvious Gratitude. What an INTERESTING Life! I trust she will continue to receive everything that she so richly deserves. MUCH Love & RESPECT... Deborah 💫❣
What a beautiful and interesting story! Thanks so much to Desiree for sharing the 'magic' of her life experiences 🌟✨ May they continue on this fascinating and fulfilling trajectory 🙏💞
Great video…Desiree is a very authentic and impressive young lady. I really enjoyed your interview. I could tell you enjoyed capturing the moment. Desiree has that special something that captivates you.😊
This is a wonderful woman so talented in her genre of skills. There is a certain amount of charmed living here but for many that's just environment. I love the trio of the Lighthouse, the ship and the Hotel that keeps her life full.
Thank you for sharing your awesome life with us! I watch both the Red Oak Victory & Hotel Mac. I love it when people live their dreams. If my wife and I get to that part of the world, we are going to stop by and say hi. Life is good! From Arizona with much respect!
Well, John - I DID see the other video of Desirée and that is what made me subscribe to your channel. What an amazing woman she is! She is living life on her terms and I am over the moon about that! To say that Desirée is an incredible role model would be a terrible understatement. I am so impressed about how you don’t let your ego rule your production style. It comes across as confident and inquisitive; too often I have seen what would have been an interesting topic turned off for me by the producer over-narrating or over-inserting themselves into the story. You handled the message perfectly!
What a great video I'm gonna check out the other video right now. I love the East Bay. I was born and raised in Santa Cruz and currently live near Moss Landing but I've been going up to the Bay Area my whole life.
New subbie. Your videos remind me of home in the SF Bay Area and are seriously documentary level quality. Amazing! Thanks for sharing; I am enjoying your back catalog.
It is so amazing to see some of the amazing sights in the US as I am from the UK and wouldn’t have ever known about these amazing places and people over there. Thank you for doing these videos as they truly are the open window to the world :) x
Just discovered this channel when the video about Desiree & her war ship popped up on my feed. I've watched both videos that featured her- now I'm about to hit that subscribe button. Great videos, I look forward to seeing more.
Desiree Heveroh rates very high on my coolness scale! I certainly hope she has a writer friend who is documenting her journey through life. It would be an amazing read.
Not sure how I got here but glad I did, Desiree is a lovely person and so fascinating. The kind of person you know you could meet and just be friends in minutes. No wonder she's running a hotel, perfect character for it.
Wow sweet Desiree, much respect for you!! Love what you are doing and wish I could stay in Hotel Mac, (haunted or not!!!) for a long time!!! I'm a ferm believer and would not mind their presence at all!!!!! It seems I'm like you what that concerns HIHI. OOO sweetie, I loved watching 'The Gilmore Girls' too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know, good things happen to good people like you, sweetie!! I'm almost 65 and wish I could live there for the remains of my life, with my son (almost 30), we have both a serious chronic illness, that is why nor he nor I could/can work. He is a starting auteur. We are from Europe but I love the USA from when I was a child, I never understood why this country draws me, but it did and does. It will remain a dream cause we can not travel, sadly enough. I wish you all the best, lots of luck & succes. Love from an old rebel-Pinkie BTW: shout out to the fab owners!!! Lots of love to them both.
When I was a teenager, living in Lafayette Calif., me and my girlfriends used to go spend Fri/sat nights at “The Point” (Point Richmond) because it was the coolest place to hang out and there were a lot of cute boys hanging out down at the park. Lol Memories there are all good. I loved it there.
Nice to see this lovely lady enjoying her life. I can relate because I have always had the good fortune of being able to do things I enjoy. I have never had a job I hated. I am self employed, in my second career and enjoying using my digital technology expertise to help people.
Desiree is an amazing woman. Easy to fall in love with. Amazing energy. I am so happy she is living her dreams. We need more people like Desiree in this world. Great video and I am a new subscriber.
Thank you all for learning more about my other place! YES- I do both jobs. Im a great juggler.
Greetings from Colorado. Watched both episodes. Good for you what you're doing. It's good you appreciate these are your "golden years" as we never know where life is going to take us next. Have a great journey.
Yeah, we saw Gilmore's up in Canada!
❤Amazing!❤
You're also a super interesting lady. ❤

I clicked because of the "haunted" theme, but stayed for Desiree's story. She is one fascinating woman!
Same!
SAME! 😅
She says “It IS lived in” as if apologizing for her apartment for some reason…? What on earth, her apartment is so lovely! ☺️
She works her butt off for her rent and it’s obvious that she loves it. Thank goodness for the Desiree’s of the world
Did you miss The Video ? She's living rent free!!
@@Norcaloutsideshe works 7 days a week for her rent
She seems like such an interesting and intelligent person!
@@snailart14she lives there rent free Jesus she looks after the place do she lives there for free
She’s quirky, eclectic, and pretty. What a thoroughly wonderful woman ❤
I wonder if when she gets bored she starts channeling all her inner American horror story characters. But plays w/ her stuffed dolls instead. 🥴 I need to be studying.

It seems she does but hasn’t posted in years she’s the top commentator on this post
I have one, I'm just so caught up in living out my life in the moment that capturing it, editing it & posting it are always an afterthought. Thanks for thinking my world is interesting enough that people would want more though! (blushes)
If she was honest, maybe. Nimrod.
Me I would love it. Especially her talking about Bay Area hidden treasures. Or even telling historical landmark stories
Desiree is a shining light and inspiration to us all. God bless her.
Desiree is like a magical experience!
Life on the ship, in the hotel, is cool enough.
But life on your own terms... something i can admire.
🌹
This woman is awesome! And she has crystals, herbs hanging and an altar too! Sending love and light 🧡💜🌒🌕🌘
Desiree has got to be the coolest person ever. Her vibes are pure, her love for life and history is astounding. I would feel honored to be in her presence.
The moon controls nature. Idk y ppl don't think that we're not affected by it too. That planets and stars don't have energy in exchange for ours. Vice versa
I have watched both of the Desi segments.
I love a good hearted person who is able to mysteriously manifest their desires.
Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz also learned about finding adventures in your own back yard. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Desiree is living the dream - her dream! What an uplifting, inspirational story from the most beautify city in the world! Here's hoping it returns to its full glory!

The production quality just keeps improving, Jon. Thanks for yet another interesting story!

What an amazing life and woman! So cool. So envious. God bless your beautiful journey!😇
Love seeing The Hotel Mac along with your good filming/editing... makes it shine!
Thanks for watching!
@@worldofnuanceshe is very interesting. She could be a great Author.
I love this she is living out her dream, becoming her best self surrounded by great friends and family🎉
What a great video. Showing the life of a very interesting lady. Her world, and the appreciation for history in her community. Great story, and some very nice folks.
My hat's off to you for following your dreams and being open to extraordinary circumstances!! Enjoyed the video!
I was so sad that Hotel Mac closed for a time but I'm so happy that it's reopened and busy. But, I didn't know anything about the ghost, or the General Manager. Such a good story.
You should definitely check out the new restaurant when you have the chance.
@@worldofnuance I have! I went there a few months ago!
What an interesing life she leads! So happy the couple revived it after Covid!
I love that how wonderful, special and unique this experience is to Desiree. She's got it!
omg i love her energy OMG she is magical!!! so glad to know people like me are out there being awesome.
Lovely to meet you Desiree, love your enthusiasm and lifestyle.
I have to say you are a total natural on camera, you could easily have your own YT Chanel
but maybe you wouldn't have the time for that. Future project?
This was phenomenal, Jonathan! Great reporting and production of an already fascinating story. Desiree is such a character too. I have to watch the other video you did on her now.
Nice to see your channel pop up for both parts even if its a few months old now.
Lucky lady - definitely has an interesting life! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Love this. She is a sweetheart. There is so much respect for her community and history. A free spirit
this lady lives on the Red Oak liberty ship and she lives at this hotel. she lives everywhere free.
Yeah this is a bit odd. There's an entire video by the same channel dedicated to her life on "an Old World War II Cargo Ship" that, best as I can tell, makes no mention of the fact that she also lives here.

@literarynick She rotates around the two different properties. It says in the beginning she spends half the week at the ship and the other half at the hotel. There's a co ship keeper.
She lives off donations like the bums kn the streets
Jealous?
I think it is awesome!.
Aww! Desiree’s a sweetheart! How cool she has a home at each job! Love it! 💕 🥰💖
The universe has heard you and positively responding to you. Good vibrations.
I absolutely LOVE this woman and her ADVENTUROUS Self! Golden opportunities have been gifted to her and she is the PERFECT person to hold court over them all.... with obvious Gratitude. What an INTERESTING Life! I trust she will continue to receive everything that she so richly deserves. MUCH Love & RESPECT... Deborah 💫❣
She’s living my dream life! Good for her! And I loved the Gilmore Girls too! ❤️❤️
Why can’t Desiree just have a reality series. I just love her
The world ain't ready 😂
I worked at the Mac pre Covid! Cool Hotel! No ghostly experiences for me.
Haha, me too also clicked in for the hunted part but her story and personality kept me here...
Omg I love her! I watched the video with her in the ship and lighthouse ❤❤she is such a quirky bubbly one of a kind….. my kinda gal! Take care!
I love Point Richmond! Such a great little town. I used to housesit for a family there. Their house was crazy haunted too!
What a delightful story. Thank you kindly!
Desiree, I love your life stories. Thank you. The best to you.
This is a fantastic place and story! Never would have believed Richmond was haunted. I know Polk Street is 😂❤
As soon as she showed her altar I was like “I knew I got a good vibe from her” ❤❤
What a beautiful and interesting story! Thanks so much to Desiree for sharing the 'magic' of her life experiences 🌟✨ May they continue on this fascinating and fulfilling trajectory 🙏💞
Desiree is an extraordinary person. Good blessings to her. Chapeau! She goes for her dreams. 👍

Her life seems pretty sweet. She has a cool place she pays nothing for and obviously enjoys her work on the ship. Good for her!
Love her story.
What a pleasant, intelligent, hard working woman.
Very interesting piece, thank you for sharing. That hotel is gorgeous
This woman is very nice, and she is happy living in this beautiful hotel.
Thank you for sharing. ❤
Thank you for sharing your awesome life with us! I watch both the Red Oak Victory & Hotel Mac.
I love it when people live their dreams.

I really enjoyed watching this.Very informative and interesting
So excited about the history of places like these, thanks for bringing them alive.
Just randomly came across your channel this morning. I’m hooked
Loved both vids, Do more...I subscribed and really enjoyed both.......
What a sweet lady. I think her apt is adorable. She is living the best of both worlds. The ship is awesome.
Great story and loved the tour. 🌹🌹
I loved how this story of a haunted inn was so positive and interesting. I’ll be watching out for more 😊
Her apartment is so cute!! And she adds her touches here and there, it makes it charming I love her style, even her clothes and glasses are so cute!
New subbie. Your videos remind me of home in the SF Bay Area and are seriously documentary level quality. Amazing! Thanks for sharing; I am enjoying your back catalog.
Wow! What an intersring and cool life she must have.I loved watching this episode and esp the one where she lives on the old ship♥️👍🏻
I’ve enjoyed both these videos. Thank you for posting them.
Love the story but most of all I love your video editing style. Your voice is calming and that's what made me subscribe.
Thanks for that!
In Desiree's mind...she must feel like she has won The Lottery. She has everything she needs
What a sweetheart! I love that she cherishes every moment.
It is so amazing to see some of the amazing sights in the US as I am from the UK and wouldn’t have ever known about these amazing places and people over there. Thank you for doing these videos as they truly are the open window to the world :) x
I hope you get to come out and visit them some day!
@@worldofnuance that would be amazing but yes hopefully one day xx
@dheveroh You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your unique journey.
ooooh, the ghost stories gave me chills---the young widow who drowned herself is so, so sad! (P.S.....I LOVE how her magnets are *alphabitized!*😄)

Great job . Love the video.
Honey it is incredible

Very cool lady! I have enjoyed watching this and the ship video.

Oh lawd.... guys it's clearly explained she splits her time between the hotel and the ship. They're 7 minutes away. Ffs 0.o
I love this so much! She's an inspiration!
Great story absolutely enjoyed it. Thank you
