I knew you were going to be surprised by that Blackberry water :-) Your reaction was perfect! Keep having fun, we'll keep watching.

[@realMDizzy]

I wish you got a Honda Element!

[@MarkPauley-s7y]

I love that you are always willing to try something and build stuff on your own and make yours keep up the great content

[@arnoldsnodgrass2953]

I really like your dark jumper, it looks very warm. There are some superb sleeping bags that will keep you toasty in even the coldest conditions. A wonderful video, beautiful location. Thanks

[@Earle63]

You make everything interesting!

[@ranger8129]

Emma u should really look into geeting u one of those small 6pack slide in campers that have the pop top roof.they will have everything u need to camp comfortably.

[@ashtonmcmahen2137]

Usually my wife and I go camping or I’m with a group. I’ve been solo camping exactly once. No fire. I’m a grown dude and a rather large one at that. Once the sun went down I didn’t know what to do lol. The wind blew hard all night so I kept hearing twigs snap etc..I was Scared shitless. Slept with a hammer next to me. I think being spooked while camping solo is natural and it’s just a matter of getting out and doing it more. Having a fire is a huge help and totally changes the vibe. Glad y’all stuck it out!

[@ashtonmcmahen2137]

Also the Taco looks awesome!

[@mrmotofy]

In a tent...yes there's NO protection. I prefer a hardshell of some sort. I much prefer my cargo trailer now

[@kevinhayes1656]

I meant you need a curtains for the windows so that people can’t see in while you’re in the back and they will also help blackout light that may come through your windows while you’re asleep

[@dsflyerds]

Have you considered buying some leveling blocks so when you back up to that creek area the back of your truck isn't angled down. It might also provide a better sleeping experience and your not constanly flighting gravity and slding down towards your tailgate.

[@mrmotofy]

Slightly elevated head is fine. Elevated feet very uncomfortable

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

i have some, this spot was already level though :)

[@iamhe999]

Emma... travel to Hollywood go to casting calls, your life will change like you never dreamed possible, better than you ever imagined.. you got "it" Emma..

[@justwannasay5454]

Do you think it's safe to be doing all that lighting over your gas tank? 😮 Just wondering.

[@karldanhofer6712]

You are so funny but beautiful❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂

[@chrisgentry4427]

"Stay strapped or get clapped" will help with getting spooked. And a small efficient heating blanket would work wonders for that small a bed space.

[@dawngrey259]

Just a thought that I would like to share from when I was camping in my Tacoma. it would be easy for someone to open the top of your topper from the outside while you are in there sleeping. So you might want to find a way to lock the topper door from the inside. It left me feeling pretty vulnerable.

[@nourltuber]

Yep, you are always fun to watch Emma. You just know how to fun not even when you don't know what you are doing! 😁🎃👻

[@dnonya5208]

Love the Quilt!!❤❤ Also the scenery❤❤ Thank you for sharing.

[@jo100]

You have a very very very Beautiful Personality 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@ritabroils6190]

Girl, where are your curtains? You don't want to wake-up with someone staring at you .

[@Frosty_adventure]

tint the trunk windows next this way you have some extra privacy

[@samueljock7291]

IM new here.....and im already hooked ...doesnt take long to see EMMA is AWESOME!!!!

[@solitudeinthewild82]

Hello Emma😊! Very nice video, lovely camping and nice camera work. Keep on ! I also make camping videos, before in Russia, ow in Vietnam. Take care! Good luck with your channel!

[@kevinhayes1656]

Unique curtains on the windows so that people can’t see in

[@ribbleslipscomb5171]

Hey Emma, Your camper is uniquely you. Have the best time, having the most fun. I was thinking an electric blanket, too. I remember that spot.

[@garybrown9062]

You have such a great personality. It’s infectious. I really look forward to your videos.

[@stephennowicki7158]

I love it. You look and sound so happy ☺️

[@Tony-um2el]

We love our solo stove table top. I think you’ll love it as well.

[@bryans8656]

Great job on that door. Form follows function.

[@martinmoss317]

About the solo stoves. They don't recommend that you extinguish with water- you can warp the steel. I have a full sized version and if it's still lit when I want to go to bed, I cover it with a galvanised trash can lid but you can also used a steel mesh to prevent sparks escaping.

[@malikdigger4544]

Emma may ur new camper truck journey be safe & excited continue on

[@isaaclerma4847]

This is the coolest woman o have ever seen. I wish there was way more people like her. Maybe then the world would be a much better place. I have a dodge Dakota I will soon being upgrading like that. 👍🏼

[@jclements65]

You are just two damn cute

[@kenhoward3512]

What a beautiful place to be in autumn. The 4WD pickup w/(custom-painted) topper will open up plenty of new places to explore.

[@philippsdeaquino3131]

[@goodstuff]

I know what you mean about sparkling water. I once was very let down, I was in a hospital lobby, thirsty, see a vending machine. Put in 2.75 usd for 1 can of bubly sparkling water that i kept seeing on social media. I take one sip, regret sets in, damn I shoulda got the snickers. Toss away full can. Never again. LOL. Also glad to see you and your videos with or without the bus.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

they always look so pretty and taste so disappointing!

[@DeAnnaG_KissingFrogsMedia]

Nice to see you posting again. An arctic rated sleeping bag is a wonderful thing. Just sayin.. 😜

[@Dirtylilnugget]

I have a heated blanket and it really makes a difference! And I totally get spooked too. I find that having an audiobook going at night helps me from being paranoid about the quiet and maybe helps deter animals that generally stay away from human voices? I also have one of those personal alarms as a just in case thing and I find sleeping with that next to me gives me comfort ❤

[@0HARE]

Do you still have the Monkey? That truck bed camper is going to get very cramped, even for just one person. You might consider getting a teardrop trailer to sleep/live in, and using the truck bed camper for all your kitchen, fridge, storage needs. A pop-up canopy could be very useful whether you have a teardrop trailer or not. It’s nice to have a covered outdoor space. We recently bought a 5lb refillable propane tank to keep from using those green cans of propane that can’t be recycled. There are obviously a lot of logistics and details to be worked out. Wishing you well, and Happy Camping!

[@cyndib3587]

Cab have a baCk window? Leave open and could even leave shell window at cab open. In emergency, you can slide thru the windows and start truck, driving away if desired. Get cold weather sleeping bag! I keep a box of wooden matches in truck console, cuz yes second trip out forgot them!

[@adriankung1625]

Yes, those Clearly Canadian waters are addictive! I used to love them back in the 90s but never see them around anymore, here in Canda! Probably best -- they're as bad as any soda, just more addictive. You could pick up an electric blanket and plug in to your power station, and put the electric blanket in or under your sleeping bag to stay toasty warm. Also, where was that campsite? Cheers!...from North Vancouver

[@jerrybrashear5562]

"Jerry" rigged? I'm offended by that!jkjkjk😂. Ok so serious question. Now that you've sold your bus/home I take it that your paying rent now? Do you find that to be a burden or is it easier in a way to have a grounded location? I'm just curious. Have a super great terrific day!🙂

[@michaelirizarry5037]

finally emma day is back!💝 the camper door looks pretty dang sweet.

[@karlpatureau1936]

Super impressed with your skills building and filming. May God bless you and your people and keep you safe and warm on your way

[@hgj2019]

Too comfortable? 😳 that’s because you are young. As we age “too comfortable” becomes something that evades the concept of reality. Or maybe reality evades “too comfortable” 😝

[@suragencia]

The laziest Girl + new name of the channel, I came across this channel the other day and I was surprised that everything it touches on is done halfway. Just comment, it is not negative, rather constructive.

[@ShamimJahuri]

Emma....attractive,so pretty.shamim zahuri from bangladesh💚🤝👫🏭

[@derickwelch7842]

I really love your channel love the way you talk and you're sarcasm hello love your ability to be able to pull stuff off like building that boat I'm building the bus and all that by yourself a lot of times this video is really inspired me to go do stuff now

[@forumicebreaker]

I have what looks like the exact same topper on my '96 Tacoma on my truck. Great work!

[@Hiddensecretsrevealed]

There's absolutely nothing wrong living there full time! ❤

[@shake9574]

Hmm.. Maybe you like the idea of camping more than actually doing it. It’s okay.

[@mysurlytrucker7510]

Problem is your as vulnerable as your mind convinced you that you are , keep bear spray beside you .

[@traceytucker9125]

Check out video’s by Mav, you and him have a lot in common and he knows all about truck camping.

[@johnhannah9163]

Emma ...you need to limo tint your windows so people won't look at you inside your camper as you are sleeping...and its for safety as well...

[@madilynmcclendon4881]

Those drinks were popular in the 80’s 😂 wish I could find them down south! ❤

[@justwastingmytime852]

I decided to unsubscribed few weeks ago now I think Im not going back to your channel I miss Berbie. bye

[@sonjadlong7554]

Truck camping in the winter does not sound romantic unless it's on a beach in Mexico! Take care!

[@ekaa.3189]

For the curtains on the side windows. Use bungee cord for the "rods" Then you can use a loop of cloth as the curtain. Reflective bubble insulation then can be slipped inside the loop. I made my cloth loops with a light side and a dark side. The light side was a fun patterned cloth, and the dark side was theatrical blackout cloth. I'd camped and hiked lots with the parents, even in bear country, as I grew up, so I was well seasoned camper. I still was a weenie on my first few wilderness camping trips. We were going to canoe camp on an Island on the Canadian side of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. I didn't like the food hanging spot, and the campsite was too open feeling. As we were setting up camp, we saw both bears and wolves on the far lake shore, and they looked at us. They can swim, and I knew that. I couldn't take it. I wanted out of there. After a few nights, and uneventful bear visits to our campsites, I eventually got used to it. I eventually got to the point where I would do camping in just a bivi sack, no tent even, in grizzly country. Sadly, my ME/CFS no longer allows me to hike into the wilderness. So now I camp out of the back of my car.

[@davidmussack4529]

You could get an RC car, or 3, you will never lack for something to do.

[@oliverjantz1108]

“That is assuming u give a shit” 🤑🔥 going to the bus to this is sooooooooo impressive!!! But since ur not living in it totally makes sense !!

[@shadow.5404]

Stunning place Emma definitely enjoyed it, have an amazing weekend 🌈

[@derickwelch7842]

Put on your truck bed want you taking kind of like cut it in half that way you got one side where you can kind of sit down on the bed

[@jamesHadden-l6l]

Been thinking about her buying plans for a boat Knowing her it could be building a 36 foot ketch :)

[@goodandgreen]

I hope it is!!

[@Victor.McCann]

I probably would have fell asleep in hammock for the night lol

[@kastenolsen9577]

With the things I have seen you do, you NOT lazy!!!

[@theemeraldfox7779]

Lassie,you're bloody awesome,bloody wifey material!

What Captain?? No talk of the Boat, get to sailing Girl!!!!!!!!!!

[@johnbecay6887]

the only thing to be afarid of at night is other humans. animals are more afraid of you than you are of them.

[@patrickbudrionis1491]

Thank You Very Much For Sharing 👍🇯🇲

[@kannieschrijfnie2042]

Watching Emma’s adventures is addictive 😁. You may fall in love with watching me live my life. Maybe you should add a disclaimer haha. Thanks for yet another entertaining episode. Greetings from the 🇳🇱 and stay safe. 5:47

I didn't even know they still made Clearly Canadian

[@manfredfritz6068]

Skip the Boat go for Space Travel!! Birbie Booster

[@derfskittlers6125]

You are a pleasure to watch. Keep up the good work.

[@kylemarriage3987]

Adventure vehicles are for living " out of" not" in"

[@kevinhayes1656]

You should invest in one of those jet boils, I think they call them

[@zaftra]

Can't those vans have roof tents on the back of them - and what is it was no curtains?

[@jamesHadden-l6l]

First one posted :) Hammock? Cool I made a WW2 Navy style one out of Duck canvas Had to use a sewing awl

[@deshawniskeng-mixedmediatv]

Hello beautiful your wonderful creator ❤❤❤

[@convoyover-landing2360]

Hi love your videos. Also wanted to just ask how many miles on your Tacoma. I’m looking for something similar to yours. I’m hearing they are good trucks.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

thanks! about 200k

[@Ston3dNinja13]

Any idea of what you’re gonna rename the channel to?

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

idk man, it definitely seems like you're the one who's lost without the bus

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

no plans to change the channel name :)

[@Ston3dNinja13]

@@EmmaBuildsBirbie It can be difficult to change your channels name, sponsors can get confused, so I get it. I would almost bet that a time will come when the channel name changes, tho. Just will probably be the next adventure that you do after this one. Either way I’m here for it. I grew up in Jackson so I love seeing the surrounding areas, gives me just enough to not have to go myself 😊

[@norm5785]

I am glad it has flavor. Truck looks wonderful. Very nice camp setup. Great location. Thank you for sharing your awesome adventure. Everyone stay safe, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia

[@johnyaceyko9775]

You should find a fan that can help with circulation.

[@stevengregory8686]

Emma, glad you enjoyed your stay at that location which was beautiful.

[@Boosty_Boost]

9:15 I gave a shit 👍 😁 dont worry

[@myBIGtinyhouselife]

What brand is that fridge?

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

setpower!

[@traceyduffy3849]

Can always come out towards California

[@derickwelch7842]

Or you could take the bed and kind of do like a a futon

[@russellhopson1658]

Oh yeah you are in a Toyota. Get you anywhere! Point and go.

[@thecomputerguy6266]

What is that red camp stove? Looks pretty sweet!

[@AB-C1]

Great video Emma, Nice job on the tailgate! Dont blame you both getting a bit spooked in the woods, its better to be safe. And yeah no insulation its gonna get cold/same temp inside as outside.. maybe foil insulation might help? Have a great week!

[@manfredfritz6068]

Anyone research where Birbie ended up??

[@IAM...1111...]

💚 That bottled water was clearly canadian eh 👻

[@LemonAndBeanCo]

Love this! I’m pretty sure during the bus build you said you weren’t the outdoors kinda person 😂 Ps cute stove!

[@brads4667]

You if you had a BUS all of that stuff would be all included. I am just saying. Still love your videos

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

what a novel idea

[@austinstitzel]

I'm gonna guess that you are a Leo.

[@goodandgreen]

Down sleeping hood ! Helps a ton at night. Long winter nights are for planning and crafts, knitting, soup in a thermos, hot tea in a thermos for morning to ease the transition from cozy sleeping bag into the cold world ❤❤

[@carls4552]

I think your camper door is great. Yeah the inside could look a bit better but you can fix that. One thing that I'd suggest is to caulk around the window to make sure that water doesn't drip down between the glass and wood. That will keep it looking good and prevent mildew from forming under there which currently you can see from the inside. Great video though Emma.

[@nancyschad2969]

I recommend a wool blanket.

[@RexNevertolate]

U look so similar to Emily Blunt

You're so confused and funny.
