Don’t Visit Santa Cruz |

#vanlife #vlog #adayinalife
For years I’ve heard good things about Santa Cruz California. But I haven’t been to this area since I was a kid.
My verdict is not to visit Santa Cruz. It’s a beautiful, safe, extremely friendly and peaceful city. If you visit, you won’t want to ever leave.
Today I parked at The Hook, a popular surfing spot in the Please Point neighborhood.
After making a quick breakfast burrito, I got out for a walk along the cliffs overlooking the ocean.
Santa Cruz is a very walkable city. So I did a lot of walking. On the walk, I stopped in a Cat & Cloud Coffee and ordered a drip coffee and a flat white. Both were excellent as was the service.
Later in the day I walked down to Capitola Beach as the sun was setting. And I couldn’t help gushing over how amazing this city is.
Don’t visit Santa. You will be smitten and won’t ever want to leave.

My name is Scott and in 2015, I bought a Ram ProMaster City to live in. Even though I didn’t know much about RV’s and campervans, I set about building the van out as a minivan camper. And in April of 2016, I moved into my minivan full time.
Over the years, I’ve learned you don’t need to have a big skill set to build your own campervan. And that living as a minimalist and utilizing solar power can be a less expensive way to live. I’ve also learned that a minivan can be a very comfortable home.
Please follow along as I document my journey.

[@heatherwhatever7714]

Thank you. I haven’t heard of yellow bird. I haven’t gotten Trader Joe’s tortillas in forever. I always thought they were kind of tough. Capitola is a perfect place and Santa Cruz. I’ve heard San Francisco isn’t great so I’m resisting until I hope it’s better. I lived there and in Marin and one of my kids went to school in the city and my oldest was born there. My heart really get left there and I don’t want to cry. I just want a safe Bay to Breakers to run again. I think the tortillas I get are Guerrero. I wanted to double check but I’m out. They’re very sturdy but soft..not organic but really great. I crisp up the corn ones but the roll nicely too.

[@janisvahanian1911]

Scott, I’ve been wanting to tell you this for a very long time. I’m almost legally blind. Traveling has become very difficult because of it. You take me to places and show me Beauty that I would never get to see without you. I thank you from the very bottom of my heart.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Thank you for telling me that. Wishing you well, Janis.

So True

[@Jotchae]

I was born and raised in Santa Cruz, I’ve lived in Capitola my whole life, and as most kids I took it for granted. As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized that Santa Cruz is an incredibly special place and every time I leave, wether it’s for a day or for months, I’m always reminded of how beautiful this place is and how lucky I was to able to grow up here, and it’s been pretty heartbreaking to see parts of the town that have been there since I was a kid get destroyed due to the recent weather.

[@brusselsprout5851]

Do you remember 1989 when the big earthquake hit Santa Cruz? What a mess that was. It struck just before the World Series was to begin. The old coffeehouse everyone loved to go to collapsed. Freeways collapsed and there was aftershocks for months, making it hard to rest. Our nerves were on end.

[@lauranewell5200]

Even though I Grew up in Capitola, I was living in Silcon Valley (Sunnyvale) at the time of that Quake, home alone with two small children! Even though it was quitting time for my Husband, it took him over an hour to get home!😮 I believe we slept in the backyard that night! 😬

[@hernandezhernandez3764]

Hobos on train tracks!! $$$ 40 dollars per adultd to ride roaring camp train!! 😤😡

[@aliciakretsch752]

Glad you enjoyed our town. We have our struggles but overall it is a slice of heaven. Those of us who live here feel very blessed.

[@laurbearsquare]

Scott, glad you liked capitola/Santa Cruz area. You were right by our old home. How cool. It’s a neat little spot. Cat and cloud was one of our favorite coffee places too 😊❤. Their coffee is good, and they have some yummy gluten free treats as well. Thanks for another great video. Take care of yourself!

[@StaticCamperVan]

Such a great place! Glad you liked the video

[@nanabananainavana7534]

Love your new tuque!! And no, I won’t ever get tired of seeing you walk along the waves and the beautiful sights. This was an exceptional video .

[@StaticCamperVan]

Aww, Thanks. Hope you’re doing well

[@Lisafrank6]

I was literally going to make comment saying the same thing❤

[@greeneyedggirl]

Well said, I very much agree!!!

[@user-ob7rc4mi3l]

I have been living in capitola for the past 3 months and I have never fallen in love with a place faster than I did with this area! Pleasure Point is so peaceful and magical and it’s so hard to capture it’s true beauty without experiencing it yourself! I’ve had family come to visit me and it’s the first place I take them :)

[@chuckaudio3191]

Rockview is my jam! haven't gotten over there in years :(

[@LivewithKare]

Santa Cruz truly holds a special part in my heart. I didn’t grow up there but spent a few of my adult years there. Nothing can replace the feeling I got living there walking along the ocean everyday. ❤

[@truthsstranger1594]

Yay!! Santa Cruz...where I've ALWAYS lived except for a year here and there. Now, you have a new subscriber, follower, and fan! You hit the nail right on the head with the title, too! 'Don't visit Santa Cruz,' because the town is like a magnet that holds you here, and always brings you back when you try to leave! Biggest downfall is you basically have to live in poverty with the rent/home prices--even with a moderate income. I'm a teacher, my wife a nurse, and we have 5 kids, so most of our money gets flushed away with rent/utilities...$4000 to $5000 a month! 😮😢 But, I guess that's the price you pay to live in paradise! Thank you for the video, and I look forward to following your travels! Best, Jamin

[@StaticCamperVan]

Hey Thanks. Glad you liked the vlog. Santa Cruz sure is something special. I think people make the place. I've been to lots of beautiful places but if the locals aren't nice, it's simply a beautiful place. Santa Cruz and Capitola seem to have it all.

[@safffff1000]

My friend lived there all his life and his daughter just got a job as a masters degree nurse at Dominican making $80/hr. When she was born in the 90's her bought a rental home in her name as a baby, locked in the tax rate till she dies. I bet 2/3 of people in Santa Cruz have been there 40 yrs or more or have house passed down to them

[@KaltrinaDemiri]

I used to go to Santa Cruz when I was young and loved it. It’s so beautiful there.

[@joelpm503]

I have been opting to go without a lid for a few years now. Perhaps I feel guilty for the plastic problem I've contributed to over the years. Hearing you mention not using a lid made me smile.

[@StaticCamperVan]

It’s actually all about the coffee for me. Coffee tastes better without a lid

Lived in Sacramento and Bay Area early 60s Santa Cruz was our vacation spot the fun house. & Big Dipper were my favorites, my favorite place in the world, I too moved to Arizona in 2018, couldn’t afford California anymore…….Tobey

[@burkedm175]

I tried the Yellowbird Serrano for the first time recently and now I'm a fan. Much appreciated tip. Your comment on cooking pasta was also interesting. Ethan Chlebowski's cooking channel recently covered this topic too. He found that you can start with pasta in a cold pot with just enough water to cover, then heat to boiling. The cooking process for pasta starts around 180 deg F so roughly time it from that point using the box instructions, Add a little water if necessary along the way. When finished, you have cooked pasta in just the right volume of starchy water, which makes a base for any sauce. That's my new standard approach as well. One pot meal, less water waste, life is good.

[@StaticCamperVan]

I’ve been cooking pasta this way after reading an article from a food scientist about twenty years ago

Aloha Scott - Beautiful ocean scenes. Thank you for the sights & sounds of Santa Cruz.

Really enjoy this video. The beach is beautiful and very nice neighborhood. Thank you for sharing with us. Also enjoy your cooking as well. Got some yellow bird as well. ❤

[@Archie583]

Haha. As a young pup in1973, hitchhiking down the coast during a year off from college, I drank too many beers an made an inappropriate comment to a woman. She reached into her purse and produced a revolver. For the first and last time in my life I had a gun pointed at me! Thankfully, my friends intervened, and their words to her, combined with my extremely profuse apology made the difference, and her better sense saved the day. I'm still alive at 71 years of age. Good video. I have enjoyed Santa Cruz many times as a sober adult.

[@tfhahs9619]

Glad you enjoyed Santa Cruz, watching videos like these really makes realize how spoiled I am to be born here and live here in the Bay Area, with how many incredible places like this are just a quick hour away, it’s always cool seeing it through another person eyes! Happy travels

I live in the north coast of Puerto Rico. There is a place nearby in a municipality called Quebradillas that is somewhat similar to that place where you were. Off course, I never get bored with the sound of waves. Quite soothing. The weather you experienced in this place the day of this video is pretty much our weather during the winter time. Love our winter because of that. Blessings 👋🏼

Hi Scott - I visited Monterey, Carmel & Santa Cruz a couple of times a long time ago. At that time Santa Cruz had the remnants of an old roller coaster right on the beach.

I try to go back to visit every other year as it's my zen place and anyone I have ever taken there falls in love with it too. There's just something about the Cruz. 🙂
