I, for one so appreciates you coming here! Thank you for the long trek. ❤ And you should be proud of yourself for what you have done. I think you did amazing!

Pretty amazing just how far you have pushed yourself out of your comfort zone Amanda. I have been very curious how things have been going so thank you for the update and the honesty as always. I personally would find that type of setup very stressful as someone who enjoys people but in small doses, and I have definitely found myself needing to leave situations when I've been over stimulated. You're doing great trying to find the balance, and I hope very much you get to relax more, work less, and get a chance to explore and connect. 🙏❤

I could see you were nervous but once you became comfortable talking to all those ladies, you had a lot to share in your van life experiences! And safety tips! You was rocking that lady! Kudos! I hope you meet a lot of nice people, and they give you your space!

Again, the scenery you capture and how you get it out to us is just so beautiful. The sunrises and sunsets looked so magical in a way.

Amanda, i met you briefly sfter your talk at the WRTR. My pup has been wearing her Frank button ever since. She looks like a little Frank fan girl. Lol. I have been wo dering how you have been doing with all of the people who wants to meet you. It was stressful for me just waiting in line to say hello. I would much rather be able to sit by a fire and enjoy a sunset. My days volunteering are hecktic and i come back and decompress. I must say i have the greatest spot at the adult games tent where we get to actually sit and talk. I so wished you would a have a plesant experience here so that Az. Would leave you good memories. This is a beautiful wonderous state. Go to Sedona after leaving here and check out more trees and beautiful hikes in the red rocks. It can be a little crowded in town but you can camp well away from people. I hope we get to touch base once more before you leave. I have a small token to give for your bravery in coming to Quartzite. I keep missing you at the rtr i guess because I do the 11 to 3 shift and you are there early morning. Bless you for all you do. Loved the video and your honesty. Hope to see you down the road. I did see Truck in the parking lot and was excited because i am a fan of your vehicle as well. I remember when you got a new engine and i was so worried Truck might get replaced. Im weird but i love my vehicles too and get attached. Ok, weirdo out. 👋

But it does make sense knowing how you are and who you are. Stepping out of your own satisfying bubble can be a challenge, but I think you’ll have a renewed enthusiasm about your wild camping and being in solitude. That will be a treat to get back to. I’ll be watching. ❤️✨✨✨

Just watched your talk on safety at WRTR on the Butterly lady’s channel. Wish we heard more from you as you have a wealth of experience and knowledge to share. But you did amazing with the talk for a first time public talk. I just love how self reliant you are with being able to get out of bad situations on your own and feel that’s important for any traveler and such an inspiration to solo women travelers. That’s a subtle thing you just pick up watching your channel over a period of time. I love your beautiful camp ups, exploring the area on hikes and cooking segments. Your visuals and storytelling makes your vids beautiful to watch. And up there is also the way you prioritize Frank is so beautiful to watch.

I am staying at a rv park close to the RTR. I went Saturday and Sunday. I was hoping to perhaps run into you but it didn't happen. I did see your van. I had a good time at RTR. I got to meet Bob so that was fun. And I got stickers. And the corn dogs were delicious. Q is definitely something you have to get acclimated to. I am 50-80 steps from a hot shower, laundry and garbage bins so I like it. This rv park is extremely quiet.

It was detrimental to my mental health to constantly try to meet other peoples expectations of what’s “ healthy” and as soon as I slowed down my overall well-being improved. I still struggle with people saying “ it’s good for you to push yourself, it’s character building,it’s necessary for growth”. May be true when appropriate when I feel strong enough energetically, physically to do so. Pausing to determine this is key. On the flip, I don’t tell social people “ you should sit with yourself more, it’s good for you and your personal growth”. It’s so subjective. As a child, I used to put myself to bed or go to my bedroom even during my own bday parties. That just about sums it up.

Good for just a wander hike, just avoid the cholla. I'm from MI and it's cool to see such different biodiversity in the desert. Anyway King road also has good cell service because it's close to the border control station (not often open and only if you are heading north from Yuma).

Thank you for sharing. Feels like RTR is all that you say. Would have considered a visit if only to say hi in person but schedule and RTR vibe prevented. Hope to say hi in person another time. Coming from sunny and burning SoCal. Sad for flames. Keep well and extra pets for Frank.

I too prefer to be farther out and away from the crowd but there are just times it doesn’t work out. Pooping in a bucket it a bag works perfectly fine. You can even get a very light plastic toilet seat to put on the bucket. I actually have a 5 gallon bucket and then a 3 gallon bucket that I stack on the 5 gallon so the height is comfortable. I store all bathroom products in the bottom section. You can even get a soft lid seat for the top and use it as a seat when not using as a potty. So much easier than trying to time pooping with privacy. Super light weight and super easy. Just bag it and throw away. I always say that my toilet is way cleaner than a porta-potty and certainly less smelly.

Hi Amanda! I’m so glad I got to meet you when you first spoke. Because I missed your campout due to vehicle problems. Maybe some day I can visit your area which might be out of my comfort zone. Have a safe trip home. Thank you for the Frank sticker! ❤❤

Hey Amanda, $store medical tape works great to easily and gently protect doggie paws. Just splay toes and tape across pad. peace and love

I think you’re doing amazingly well considering how much you’re out of your comfort zone. I’m a pretty serious introvert myself and I’m thinking all those people would have me spending a lot of time in my van away from the crowd. Glad you’re having fun anyway, that shot of Frank with his leg and tail hanging out,totally relaxed.❤️

So happy to have cell service enough to catch up. You really captured the beauty of the desert (and loving the ways you’re adding music). Learning from your perspective, too - balancing the social and the work with quiet and private time. I’m too old for this, coming to accept that it’s okay to prioritize my solo time and THEN enjoy the social stuff. Better late than never! 😂

I was wondering why I seen you on Plomosa Rd. I figured you'd be off in a corner somewhere hiding. 😂 I was gonna stop & say Hi on my dirt bike. KOFA Wildlife Refuge just South of town might be more your scenery. I was thinking about checking that out myself. I'd be up for some hiking.

The Transfer Station along Hwy 95 between Plomosa and downtown is free, open Sun-Wed. then on the left before you get to town is a good water station. Easy parking.
