It's weird that I've watched you grow up. It's like I know someone, but they don't know me. Ha! Anyway, I'm pumped to see you with a bunch of other young people. It was pretty obvious that your personality needed more people when you were on the boat. You guys thrived when you brought on the visitors! But now that you have even more freedom, it's awesome to see you living life on your own terms : )

Hey Finn! Make keeping the kitchen area super clean and sanitary a PRIORITY because with those open doors, the first time an uninvited guest (think mice!) moves in because of the smells, you'll wish you had kept things clean!! I have seen vanlifers in total misery when mice get into their van and it's really, really hard to get them out in a humane way. Keep things clean and free of food crumbs! You'll be glad you did!

Damn Bro, you remind me of myself when I was your age. When you started out playing James Taylor, I went back 46 years. A group of about 20 of us would make a beach trip every year for the Son Festival. There were concerts every night. Sing alongs around the campfire 🔥 You take me back. And you're getting good on you guitar. You deserve a Martin. Keep it coming Bro!!! 💜

Funny I had a westfalia van, white camper van. A ‘73 and took it surfing and all around. Then lived in one in Florida in the keys. While diving, sailing, exploring Caribbean islands. And now I have an Excursion. I wish we had YT when I was young. The stories to tell. You get to do that. What a blessing! Safe travels Finn.

I think it’s amazing to be my age and watching many young people on KZbin living the life we all imagined for 100+ years. I love this particular episode at Banff and the epic morning hikes. The World is enormous…. We know this through watching Finn grow up on the catamaran @sailingzatara… and now on land. Blessed.

Had a 77 bread loaf, 81 (air cooled - Westfalia) and a 90 Vanagon Carat weekender version. Saw all of the continental US, Canada and bits of Mexico. I loved the space in between the front seats (pass-through) and loved the pop-up roof tent. It was an easy layout for me. Glad you have the Subie engine, much more reliable than the pancake VW. I wish you all the best! AND GO TO BANFF !!! 😊 It’s majestic !!

This man has got to do a collaboration with Ryan Trahan. There is no way I am the only one who sees the many personality similarities between the 2 of them. The funny awkward genuine niceness of them both would just be a perfect recipe for a sick video together. Anyways keep doing what u do Finn Ur just the best and your videos just put a smile on whosever face who watches them.

Don't stress out Finn. This will happen in many states. You're just learning. Do a couple minutes of internet homework before stopping for the night. Glacier National Park does have designated campsites. Go exploring all day and then just head into a good safe campsite to go to sleep. Problem solved.

Just got back from North Carolina, and suggest that the area around Franklin is a place you need to go. Just a beautiful area of our country with amazing views. Hey, Finn be careful when you poop in the woods for bear and poison ivy. This is the best time of your life to travel. If you come to Iowa contact me and I'll give you some great places to visit. Take care Finn. Can't wait for your next video.

Phewwww. I was so worried you were going to be stuck with the problematic original engine. Nice to see you have the conversion and now I can rest easier. The Westies are the most amazing vans to drive, having the engine in the back makes all the difference. Weird you're off the boat, weird to see you made friends and more importantly get to know yourself outside of family.
