I recently subscribed to your channel. Have been wanting to get out on the road myself. Appreciate your style of video sharing the dailies and cooking on the road. This video was really important to see as the weather isn't always perfect and what do you do in the rain. I'm also scared of the the idea of the nightly sleeping spot challenge. I know it must get easier as you do it. But could definitely feel the stress of its almost night time. Nice to see you posting again, your videos are super helpful for those of us looking to get on the road someday. Thanks for sharing!!
Hi Chuck, after living on the road myself for quite a while in a rooftop tent on a 4runner that it's true that trying to find places to sleep can be stressful. It can also be kind of exciting *if* you are out west near a lot of BLM land. It does depend on the rig too though especially if you are in populated areas... I do a lot of work out of a Toyota Prius these days and as long as I don't have to do crazy off-roading I can sleep in that thing anywhere the door is locked and heat or AC going.
@@chucktrow8577 it definitely does. I have camped in over 100° Fahrenheit and in temperatures below freezing. Also there's almost nothing that beats it's stealthiness
Illegal to sleep in your car in public and private places in and not all Walmarts allow it beyond myth. Popping a roof tent will get a cop to say hello for sure. And running your vehicle is not ethical. Financially and environmentally. You need a solar battery/inverter to run off of while you drive in the day or charge via panels in the day. Huge waste of gas and attention is brought to you as climate control needs engine power to work. Or suck it up. Crack a window.
Calm, serenity, introspection, harmony of silence, peace... That's exactly what I think all campers are looking for, and this video illustrates it perfectly. A big thank you directly from Portugal for these videos and for the enormous video-photographic quality. See you soon!
Thanks for doing this video. I understand you and other vanlifers want to be interesting and entertaining but I think sometime y'all forget we also follow you for real life information because we're interested in living this lifestyle. Seeing what you do when you're not out hiking, taking great photos, and hanging with your friends is part of the information we want to know. Everything about van life is interesting to people who aren't living it, from how you do laundry to how you entertain yourself on rainy days. Vanlifers rarely, if ever, show their laundry days and I think that can actually be a disservice to their audience because it gives the illusion of freedom from regular life. So thanks again for doing something outside the box.
The Artist’s Way! I have used the tools in that book since 1996. I have journaled every morning since then (including left handed after two surgeries to my right arm). As a result I am editing the third draft of my first novel, editing a web series I wrote and acted in, had my photography in a few shows and sold some work, performed in an improv show and two plays, was Script Supervisor my friend’s first feature film, and am preparing for a spring shoot of my first short film. I’ve also facilitated TAW as 12 week courses several time (aforementioned filmmaker friend was in it and had a lead role in a Law and Order SVU episode a couple years ago). His film is winning crazy independent film awards. Anyway all that to say-with that book I can’t wait to see where you go from here! I love your videos. Keep creating! 📷
Artist Way is a great way to make sure you are doing work for your self. I’ve been doing pages for over 25 years. Every day! Keep at it! Thanks for sharing your journey.
Hey, Nathaniel! Great rainy day vid. I've been SUV dwelling about 70% of the time for five years. It can be a challenge. Spent four years up in Colorado's White River National Forest working at a mill. Rain wasnt usually an issue, but snow and wind. Man! Wind! I loved it, but had to leave so that I could do the things I'm doing now. Seeing more of the country, meeting the people. Life is good on the road. Thanks for sharing. ~Sonny
My secret to resolving the sleep location stress in populated areas has been to stop at hotel parking lots. It’s not glamorous, but they’re always lit and it’s expected that cars remain there overnight, so it lends to a sense of safety as long as you remain completely stealth.
This was a wonderful film. Seemed more than a vlog. Some of those images were so overwhelmingly beautiful and I really laughed out loud at your-stating-the-obvious humor. Thx u!
nathan thank you for sharing your experience and unique perspective of this life. i feel like your times can i get rough both mentally and physically, yet you continue through, for this journey of self discovery and for us the viewer. i appreciate that so much. your videos are incredibly inspiring. they make me feel confident i can give my soul the life it truly deserves, keep moving forward ✊🏼
This is a good balance to all the woohoo, life is perfect, travel videos. Sometimes you are just in your car. Or stressed looking for a place to spend the night. Nice simple set up! FYI. In a pinch, you can make that couscous with cold water. It takes about an hour to soften up, but tastes good. Kind of like leftovers.
Thanks for this slice of real-life... It's easy to romanticize vagabonding around the country in an SUV, so it's good to know about days like these before taking the plunge.
Love your videos. Very masterfully made and enjoyable to watch. The quality of the picture and audio, the act of video recording itself, the way the cuts and transitions are made -- are great. (and also the situational audio track!) The video content is great too, very chill, beautiful scenery, the whole romance of adventuring alone by car and so on. Great 18 minutes of escapism.
Hey Nathaniel. Nice to see you're uploading again. I hope you'll manage to keep it up. I really enjoy your videos, they have a real calming effect on me. Also, don't feel like you have to do something special for a vlog. Your way of life is unusual and that makes it interesting to people like me who are stuck in the rat race. I'd happily watch anything to do with how you go about your everyday life. Hope to see more from you. Enjoy the desert 👍
thanks for watching 🤍 went through a creative rut for a few months with photography and video (and social media), but happy to report i feel much better about it now after taking some time off. i actually filmed this in december. still in the desert though, and some new videos coming soon!
Keep telling your story any way you would like. I’ll be watching. Always enjoy what you do. You have been one of my biggest inspirations as I dove into car camping (just drove from Baltimore to Palm Springs in my Prius.) Learning every day and loving every minute - well, almost every minute.
Good raw transparency Nathaniel. I appreciate the effort to share the vulnerable side of life on the road. Don't be too hard on yourself, but way to push yourself! Carry ONWARD! : )
It's been 17 days since I had no other option but to live in my suv after chaotic roommate situation. This is my favorite way to wake up- the pitter-patter and petrichor of rain is my absolute favorite. 🌧😌💕 (As is this video of yours!) The Seattle the rent is too high and I want to avoid another roommate nightmare, so shifting my perspective from panic/survival mode to _adventure mode_ with *gratitude* to God has helped me immensely. Every day I'm thankful to Him for breath in my lungs, sight to see, ears to hear, the warmth of my car, and the beautiful community of vandweller nomads online who have a plethora of knowledge and creativity for me to consume! Thank you and God bless you! 💛 _P.S. if you're ever back in WA: my favorite place for solitude with a beautiful landscape is around the Ollalla area._ 😉
I was excited to see you post come up on my feed! I enjoyed seeing how you deal with the rainy days in your SUV camper. Those were some amazing shots of the coastline!
Nathaniel your videos are soothing to watch. Thank you for showing the subtle. I live in norcal by the way....it's an environment here that's heavily...regulated, so I get what you're conveying. Keep going! You have a beautiful eye.
I’m on the road a lot with my hobby which is bird photography. You reminded me so much of myself when you started off in the morning heading somewhere and then ended up at the end of the day somewhere completely different.🤣
I just watched this as I am drinking my coffee and preparing for my day. Very relaxing to see the rainy coast and all of the weather you experienced on the road to the desert. I saw you filmed this in December, and I look forward to seeing your upcoming vlogs. Your content has a great style.
Well, it's about time! Really funny with the weather reports while you drove. Understand the need to be alone and the self-journey, but whatever you do, keep up the filming.... you're good at capturing the beauty!
I really enjoyed seeing the more challenging part of your life on the road and I enjoyed the story of this one a great deal. I liked seeing your tripod setup too... It's nice to see the behind the scenes... I would love to purchase a udemy course where you teach how to vlog like you. It's a dream of mine to vlog like this. Was so excited for this upload Nathaniel. I'm so happy you are checking in with yourself and thinking about how you make your art. I was beginning to worry a little bit and wonder if you were all right. Relieved to see this upload
Your work does wonderful things, for my mind and my soul. Thank you 🙏 Also, I really appreciate your quality over quantity aproach. So I hope you never create and post from feeling pressured to do so, but do it only from a place of joy and excitement. Your content is the kind of stuff that stands the test of time. That's a very unique thing here on YT 😊 Stay happy💕
To anybody: Most people speak inspirational quotes about chasing dreams, not giving up, and being passionate. But no one speaks up for those who don't have dreams (or haven't realized what they want in life). You might feel lonely and lost, but just know that you are not alone. I myself do not have goals or dreams or passion. I learned not to bother. I am fine and I hope you are, too. Sorry I am not sure about my English grammar. it's not my native language. Stay safe everyone!
This was the PERFECT video for me to watch, as I am going to be living in my Suby Outback soon, and have been, mainly, concerned with two things…..being stuck all day in a small space ( smaller than yours as I will have much of the room taken up with supplies), and how am going to go to bathroom when not alone in the wilderness. If I would be in a van, neither of those would be an issue. And you captured this mood very well……I hope you do post vids more often as I enjoy them very much
also I peeped you’re reading Clarity and Connection. Such a good book! you should check out “The monk who sold his Ferrari” another awesome one to keep you in tune💫 Cheers man. love your work!
Thanks for sharing your life with us, doing things in life is is not always easy, but always stay encouraged and live your life the way you want to. Always stay safe and take care 🙂 🙏
Noticed you are reading The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron. That one's a game-changer. I hopped up and pulled my copy from one of my bookshelves. That book is worth a second read! Thank you for the reminder. :)
The rainy car interior scenes remind me a lot of "PRISIONERS" by Denis Villeneuve. It is not a boring Vlog at all. Calm and relaxed. To film something for pleasing audience I guess it is the worst lifestyle to live with.
Hey dude just after spending the last few hours tuneing in to your videos, ive just recently subscribed to your channel, wow you are amazing , realy enjoying your footage from ireland🍀🍀🍀
This was a very interesting and enjoyable vlog, thanks for sharing the challenges as well as the highlights of living on the road. Some nice moments in there as well of the scenery. Look forward to you getting your mojo going soon. Not too long for Spring :-)!
First time here. Every person has their own style, TH-camr or not, and yours was very different from others I've watched. Very honest, introspective and realistic (I would be in that mood if I had to be out there in that weather alone)..I hope you are feeling well and not too stressed from everything. I live alone, and recently for the first time recognized a feeling of loneliness. Could be pandemic related.. Take care.
it really is lovely. if it's just raining i sleep great. but the heavy wind was shaking the car so not this time 😊 i use a few different vanlife apps for sleep spots. or just look for national forest land or bureau of land management land. for hiking, i generally have a very good sense of direction because i hike a lot. but using an app like gaia or alltrails to track location is never a bad idea
Really enjoyed this one. It’s definitely a bummer that it’s hard to find a secluded campsite on the coast in any of the 3 states. Your setup in the back seems pretty perfect for enjoying a rainy day though
I love your videos. What’s boring for you is serene for me! I love Hwy 1 from Oregon south. Couldn’t figure out exactly where you were there though. Yeah, we had some nasty storms recently, but the rain is welcome! What all did you put in your cous cous? I couldn’t figure it out! Why do you not have shades on your windows while you’re sleeping? That gym in Barstow? Enough said!! 😂 Happy and safe travels. I’m proud of you!! 🥰
@@NathanielWise I love Cambria. Did you get a chance to eat any olallieberries? This place Linns sells all types of foods made with them. They are SO yummy!!
Honestly I was just thinking to myself "I wonder if anyone's done a stormy day suv life video" and boom, this pops up to answer my question! It's good to know before going out there.
I have very little experience camping in general but was wondering if two things would help on long rainy days like this: a roof awning and an electric wall towel drier/warmer (not sure on power usage, but something I try myself) 🍻
can relate to the toughness of finding a sleep spot on the coast. I was suv-ing in the redwoods and went looking for a blm spot but directions took me up a mountain trail that was blocked off so i parked by the gate surrounded by redwoods and woke up to a black bear. #adventure
I love this video Very realistic Down to Earth Wet 😓 I wonder if you ever tried push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups (maybe need to mount a bar on your ceiling, pull up from lying position/ better than nothing)?? Even some leg lifts or planks or butt lifts. I mean just to get your body temp, circulation up. I try to do at least 100-200 of each everyday (sets of 20-30, break, do next exercise and repeat until kaputt)
Hey Nathaniel love you content bro keep bringing your authentic self like you do ,its the best and I can really tell you are on the right path just keep listening to your calling inside (hope it makes sense haha)🙏

Your vid isn't boring. It shows the REALITY of some days of being a f/t nomad. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Not boring at all. The rain sounds and wind sounds alone is refreshing.
This is my favorite of yours so far. There’s something so magical about rainy days by the sea. Also that couscous bowl 😋
you really can't beat a rainy day by the sea 😊
Calm, serenity, introspection, harmony of silence, peace... That's exactly what I think all campers are looking for, and this video illustrates it perfectly.

Rainy, windy days like what you posted brought back memories; mostly of how cold my feet got! Desert is the place to cure that! Stay inspired.
love the atmosphere when it storms on the coast, really beautiful!
Good raw transparency Nathaniel. I appreciate the effort to share the vulnerable side of life on the road. Don't be too hard on yourself, but way to push yourself! Carry ONWARD! : )
thanks charles! trying to be more open on here
Rain brings so much magic! This video is so nice 😊
Times like this I think eating is the highlight of the day!
It's been 17 days since I had no other option but to live in my suv after chaotic roommate situation.
This is my favorite way to wake up- the pitter-patter and petrichor of rain is my absolute favorite. 🌧😌💕

thanks johan!
Thanks for showing us real life. It’s not always sunshine and glamour

I don't know why... but I like these kind of videos. I love the rain, snow, and videos about it. LOL! I really did enjoy this.
the atmosphere is really fun to film!

Watching from Philippines
there will be more soon! thank you for watching
First time here. Every person has their own style, TH-camr or not, and yours was very different from others I've watched. Very honest, introspective and realistic (I would be in that mood if I had to be out there in that weather alone)..I hope you are feeling well and not too stressed from everything. I live alone, and recently for the first time recognized a feeling of loneliness. Could be pandemic related.. Take care.
thank you patti! love hearing that, so happy you enjoy my videos :)
Keep up the good work and videos!! Chin up better days are coming!! Avid fan of yours!!
Im glad that you're back been missing your uploads 💪
thanks for watching maro 😊
I have been thinking about yours videos since January. Keep with good working. I love yours vlogs.
Such a calming video 😌
thanks renee 🤍
I’m going to be transitioning to living in my van full time and appreciated this ‘real day in the life’ vid 😂
Rain is my favourite sound of all time 🌧 ☔️ How do you search places to sleep? 😴 and also how do you not get lost on hikes and so on? 😊
it really is lovely. if it's just raining i sleep great. but the heavy wind was shaking the car so not this time 😊 i use a few different vanlife apps for sleep spots. or just look for national forest land or bureau of land management land. for hiking, i generally have a very good sense of direction because i hike a lot. but using an app like gaia or alltrails to track location is never a bad idea
Love this one, lots of rainy days in the pnw and feel ya but what happened at anytime fitness??? That’s my go to as well. Stay out of Barstow?
ha- basically just incredibly run down, shower was downright scary / gross and everybody in there was giving me super dirty looks
Really enjoyed this one. It’s definitely a bummer that it’s hard to find a secluded campsite on the coast in any of the 3 states. Your setup in the back seems pretty perfect for enjoying a rainy day though
I love your videos. What’s boring for you is serene for me! I love Hwy 1 from Oregon south. Couldn’t figure out exactly where you were there though. Yeah, we had some nasty storms recently, but the rain is welcome! What all did you put in your cous cous? I couldn’t figure it out! Why do you not have shades on your windows while you’re sleeping? That gym in Barstow? Enough said!! 😂 Happy and safe travels. I’m proud of you!! 🥰
thanks for watching :) I was near cambria, ca. i just didn't need shades because it wasn't a busy area, no street lights, etc!
@@NathanielWise I love Cambria. Did you get a chance to eat any olallieberries? This place Linns sells all types of foods made with them. They are SO yummy!!
Cool atmosphere! Artist’s Way is a good book 👍🏼
indeed it is! one of the better books i’ve read
Honestly I was just thinking to myself "I wonder if anyone's done a stormy day suv life video" and boom, this pops up to answer my question! It's good to know before going out there.
indeed! it can be a little cooped up but it's not so bad :)
Loved this format! I love the others too
thank you! happy you enjoy
I have very little experience camping in general but was wondering if two things would help on long rainy days like this: a roof awning and an electric wall towel drier/warmer (not sure on power usage, but something I try myself) 🍻
could get an awning for sure! wouldn't have helped at all in this storm though, was waaaay too windy haha. sideways rain
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS AN NEW VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha thanks for watching man!
This is fantastic, and an inspiration. Thank you :)

I enjoyed this vlog greatly. Thank you.
I really enjoyed this. Thank you for sharing.
I watched every second...at normal speed. Nice video.
We miss you man! Welcome again :)
thank you! miss being on here too
can relate to the toughness of finding a sleep spot on the coast. I was suv-ing in the redwoods and went looking for a blm spot but directions took me up a mountain trail that was blocked off so i parked by the gate surrounded by redwoods and woke up to a black bear. #adventure
ha! it can definitely be tricky sometimes. never been woken up by a bear...
@@NathanielWise well I had to pee and opened the door. he popped out of the woods and I popped back in to my SUV. 😅😅😅
I love this video
Very realistic
Down to Earth
Wet 😓
I wonder if you ever tried push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups (maybe need to mount a bar on your ceiling, pull up from lying position/ better than nothing)?? Even some leg lifts or planks or butt lifts. I mean just to get your body temp, circulation up. I try to do at least 100-200 of each everyday (sets of 20-30, break, do next exercise and repeat until kaputt)
could definitely try that! good idea
So long, so good!
thank you!
Hey Nathaniel

and I can really tell you are on the right path just keep listening to your calling inside (hope it makes sense haha)🙏
