A Few Hot Beach-y Days in the Florida Keys 🌴| Van Life in the South

[@femalepower6244]

A little advice to avoid mosquitos, a clove of garlic squeeze with vinaigrette in a spay bottle, put on before getting out and after to relief the itching bits. Yeah you will smell, but try it. Love & hugs from Denmark 🇩🇰

The US has so many different landscapes it’s INSANE

[@FranCescy]

I’m a native Florida keyser, my husband and I live down here full time and myself and my son were born in key west. I’m sorry you’ve had some bad experiences down here. No one should be singled out. I promise not everyone is like that. Lots of people love the tourist and when people visit because that’s how we all make a living. If you ever come back, let me know, I can tell you all the best spots to see 🥰👍🏻

[@donnamaco1]

100 THUMBS UP! Not all Floridians are haters. Some are lovers and wish you a wonderful, fun filled, joyous life. Prior to 15 years ago, people were very friendly but it has continued to go downhill since then. Currently there is a lot of hostility toward each other and it has hit record levels since Covid. Everyone is uptight, stressed and hostile.

[@haydenGwells]

OK am I the only one that thinks that the thumbnail to this video is just absolute fire? I mean for real like it looks like you’re about to drop in R&B album soon. The lighting. The angle. The expression. The vibe. gUrl....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@tamistanley8593]

ENJOY YOURSELF WITH MAMA.....CONTINUE YOUR WONDERFUL JOURNEY AND BE SAFE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING......👍😀

[@Sky_Hiii]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge of plants every time you can, left alone they are so beautiful and smart

[@Butterfly19708]

I love your relationship with your Mom. Thanks for sharing your adventures. The dogs are truly blessed to have the two of you.

[@vanjoy1781]

Im so sorry you are having a bad experience with the people there. I traveled to Florida and stayed for 8 months and had an amazing experience. I was a solo traveler and am indigenous to this land. I hate hearing stories like this where travelers are made to feel unwelcome. I truly hope your time in Florida improves. It is a beautiful place with amazing wonders. All good blessings to you and your dear Mother.

[@browneyes8444]

Love love traveling along with you and moms and the pups.

[@raymondray8672]

Forget the haters, you’ll find them everywhere unfortunately. Head north on the west coast, Crystal River, Cedar Key, and the most beautiful springs in the state. Ginnie Springs, Santa Fe River, Blue Springs. Safe Travels.

[@christyhammer218]

Your doggo was SOAKING in that sun and hug 🥰

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

William is a sun boi!

[@Destiny-fx4my]

Your videography is improving with every video! It’s very inspiring to watch❤️

[@LadyBugout]

So beautiful. Thanks for sharing. You and your mom are awesome!!!

[@daunknownatural]

Keep your head up! I am from Michigan and moved to Florida as an adult. I lived there twice for a period that totals over 12 years. It's a very rude state to live in or visit. The people who are from there are not nice at all. Remember...it's not you. It's them! Have fun and focus on your travel journey. But if you need to, you must, just go off on them. That is the only way to make them understand. They do not like people from the north and they don't like your skin color. Be safe.

[@beyzaxoxo]

I love your crazy lifestyle ! Im gonna start my vanlife journey in june omg so excitingggg i love how real you are 🎊💖🎀

[@StephenWarrenArt]

What a different world over there so beautiful

[@thelisaofmonalisa4829]

[@maxineoliver7404]

I like your hair naturally.💕I'm sorry about those mosquitoes-I know that all of that can be a pain.🦟I'm glad that you guys got a chance to camp at those areas in the Florida Keys!🌴🌅🌞

[@blahblah2blahblah260]

Love'em Loui keep them coming. Yup shake the negative folks keep enjoying yourself. Remember, a lot of people are miserable for whatever reason. Let them do it alone.💖

[@MyVividLife]

You have a good attitude to the rude people that you have encountered. Sorry that has happened. I am not a Floridian but I have lived here for many years. I too focus on the good things. Safe travels!

[@roderickwalden9671]

You guys need to go to Daytona Beach,just not during spring break, the beach in Daytona are drivable, it's a nice ride, you'll love it🥰🥰🥰

[@f1guremeout]

Beautiful scenes from a beautiful place, welcome to my state of Florida! I have lived here in Miami since 1995 and there is plenty to see if you have the time and do avoid the tourist traps on South Beach. If you want a quieter beach, go up to Sunny Isles where its free to park and walk across Collins to the ocean. Take a look at Wynwood for the world-famous street art, there's the planetarium on the beach by Bayside, and check out Coral Castle you can't miss that, Fairchild gardens, Viscaya, I'm sure I'm missing a few more places, but Miami is mainly its all about the beaches and the weather. Have fun Loui! 🙋🏾‍♂️😎

[@daphnegarcia2322]

I don’t think I’ve seen much you tubers I would love to meet but you and your mom seem so down to earth and I love it! I live in my RV with my kids and husband. If you are in Massachusetts I hope we can meet 🥰 safe travels beautiful ladies!

[@ramirezcarlos1246]

I'm Mexican I I've lived here all my life even started my own family here and everytime we go to key west we get the same reactions .....sorry and hope see past all that and pay attention to the true beauty of the keys...when y'all head back down take the other way to the main land ....so u can see Carson bridge.....its a really nice spot to pass by .....and we have good animal feed store here in homestead fl.....sunset feed store has everything you'll need for ur dogs.

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

Nice to be validated! I feel like I’m crazy and I gaslight myself a lot thinking that it’s not them being hateful towards us. But it’s a real struggle out there. Thank you for the tips and for watching! 💗

We really enjoyed our time in the Keys but it is definitely more difficult to boondock there! Love your doggo! Too cute!

[@dwalker6868]

Enjoyed seeing you both have fun!

[@youtubecreators8475]

I enjoy watching your videos, so I want to start my adventure in van life as soon as possible, lately I have seen that things are being tougher than usual, my recommendation is that you buy a box of rose or strawberry incense and Feel out of your van, turn them on all the time and let the Hun surround you with your peanuts and cars, so you cleanse yourself of negative energy due to the events that have affected you lately.GOD BLESS YOU GUYS!

[@RoxyEwe]

If you buy "Skin So Soft" from Avon and dilute it with water in a spray bottle from the dollar tree, it can be sprayed on u and the pets for fleas, mosquitos and no see ems. It smells nice too. My dog used to get pancreatitis easily from fat food too. ❤️

[@elivie2804]

I live in Georgia and the mosquitoes and tics here are terrible. I can’t imagine how bad they are in Florida at this time of year.

They're not bad. There's no rain right now. No rain=no mosquitos

Try keeping some cedar oil because it kills mosquito instantly. Just mix it with a carrier oil.

Use Avon's skin so soft to fight off mosquitoes. It works, I live in Texas

[@BoomerGirlInaGenZWorld]

Boil skinless chicken in a crockpot on low. I use breasts because Zoey is the one with tummy issues but I have to feed all 3 the same thing to avoid WWIII. The chicken will be incredibly soft and easy to debone and you can use your hands to mushthe chicken. Mix with cooked plain rice and a couple tablespoons of low fat plain yogurt. They love it, and it’s very easy on their digestive system. My Zoey has tummy issues all the time. I do this 3-5 days in a row when I first notice issues - blood in her poo, slow to eat, or throwing up. Saves me a vet visit every time.

[@summergrace5102]

[@NatureRecycleFlorida]

welcome to the best state Florida

[@mariabetancourt6797]

Nice video

[@jmmcmahon]

In Florida one only needs a rear license plate, so in parking lots like that they want you to park head in so they can read your license plate. I don’t know if you have a front license plate. Im thinking the lot attendant only comes around every so often and who knows who was parked where, when and how, when the attendant was around.✌️✌️

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

I totally agree people just doing their job. However, there were no signs indicating that you had to park like that and there were about 15 other cars parked exactly like me in the parking lot. Also, I think people don’t realize I don’t put everything in the videos. We then proceeded to flag down a ranger and confront him and he began to tell me that he was tired of the games that I was playing and that he sees “vans like mine around a lot” and that “I come here a lot playing games” haha like duuuuude I’ve been here for two hours haha never been here before in my life. Now tell me that’s not him being hateful because I lived it and I know for a fact he was trying to give me a hard time. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@nancyosmun3664]

Louie, can you wear Skin so Soft to keep the meskitos away? It works. Its by Avon. Use the original scent.

[@catpatrick3838]

theboatgalley.com has a "recipe" for mosquito, no-see-um, flea and tick spray made from essential oils. I am not affiliated with them in any way but I've mixed up this stuff and used it for years with excellent results. I usually go mix up a combo that pretty much does it all. My mom uses it too, she is soooo allergic to no-see-ums (it's crazy how her system reacts to them, they literally make her feel ill) and it works great for her.

[@jellyjude5760]

I’ve been binge watching all your videos for the past week or so, I love your content and energy so much! Having lived in Florida my whole life, there are some genuinely good people here, but so many more are mean and bitter and, not to say all northerners are like this, but snow birds have taken control of Florida and they are a lot of greedy, selfish people, I’m sorry you’ve had such a poor experience of the state outside of the beautiful nature (minus the mosquitoes!)

[@AdventureTimeLoui]

Thank you for tuning in! 🥰 and yes I totally believe there are good people in Florida and everywhere in the world. Sucks that it had to play out this way for us, but hopefully things will get better. We never loose hope for finding good people and seeing the good in an area no matter what happens .
