Hi! I live in a van in Hawaii

I ended up getting a job here on the island, but rent was expensive so I found an old van and converted it. More stories soon maybe!

[@imagrasshopper9510]

I didn't expect to find a personal blog that would inspire me to go back to the beginning to watch them all, but here I am. The Isabel Paige effect...

[@ReynoldsMiss]

Same 😅🥰

[@mckenziepeffer1062]

Legit same lol

[@katrae5071]

I’m also doing the same thing. 🥰

[@LunaGer]

Doing the same. Just watched her most recent, and my first Isabel Paige video. Immediately afterward, I subbed and went right to her first video.

[@BeccasBreak]

Same! I’m late to the party, but here we go. Did you make it through them all?

[@NicoleCrystalCreations]

Seems to me like many of us just found your channel after you went on your trip with Hannah. I’m glad we found you 🙂

[@RuEs27]

I love how everybody is watching from the beginning to get to know her

[@kayetompsett1887]

I found you while you were building your off grid house. I'm subbed now and am going to watch your vid's from the beginning.

I’m the reverse actually. I discovered Isabel about a year ago and Hannah a few months back. They are both very inspiring young women ❤️🙏🏼❤️

[@aurorajames9464]

Yeppp

[@princeza7030]

Opposite actually! I just found Isabel, and searched for Hannah bc of this comment!

[@JennnSaidWhat]

So, I've been binge-watching your videos today - not in order, I must say. I came across one where you told us how you had started to date a guy, but he was moving. In that video, you came to the realization that you've been living in fear or living via fear (however one states it). Then I came across this particular video of you living in a van in Hawaii, exploring by yourself. It dawned on me... ...that "living in fear" is all so relative for each person. I find it incredibly brave of you to live alone, travel alone, having lived in a van, and exploring places by yourself. All of that makes *me* fearful! I wish I could be that brave -- maybe one day! But for someone else, like yourself, the fear of being rejected by a guy you like is what you've been scared of in the past. So basically, no ones' fear is greater or less significant than any else's, and I love that about the human experience!

[@steveryan1799]

That's some deep shit.

[@julienjean6711]

Yes, people have different fears, and that is just part of what makes us so different. Every person has a different perspective. It is amazing.

[@DesireesJoint]

This is beautiful! Also it’s funny that I read this comment because right before this I was watching a different video of hers & I thought about how she always goes out in nature by herself, which I have been doing a lot this summer. Often times I tend to get paranoid that I’m gonna get hurt by myself or I’ll be attacked by an animal or person, so often times feel anxiety & end up leaving. Well I thought of the fact that if she does this stuff all the time, I shouldn’t be afraid. I should always be cautious of course but I should be a little more fearless.

[@eulalio02]

You should read Immunity to Change. It explains how our brain both keeps us safe from what we judge to be a danger as well as keeps us from accomplishing what will most make us happy in life. Its a perfectly balanced equation. Once you begin to deconstruct some assumptions you begin to see how they hold us back from happiness.

Congrats on your sobriety! I myself recently got sober from alcohol. I’ve only drank 4x in the last 6 months- working on cutting it out fully. Life changing already- I’m playing catch-up right now but by the end of the year I’ll be more able to do what I want to do and love how I want to live. Got to catch up with paying off some debt first though!

I just started watching these Isabel Paige videos, and I've decided to back to the beginning. I can't put my finger on what has drawn me in. I typically do not watch personal blogs, mostly just watch sports and current events. I think what I like about Isabel: she is adventurous; she is fearless; she can figure out how to do anything, how to construct/make ANYTHING, be it construction, clothing, bread or other food, etc. Also, she is real, and gets lonely and down like everyone. But she has a burning persistent optimism inside her; she seems to be confident that no matter how sad or down she gets, she knows that she will eventually bounce back and be better than ever. Also, she loves nature, especially off the beaten path. Isabel Paige can add one more fan to her huge number of followers.

I started at the Hannah trip; But did you think you would be where you are 3 years down the road: Having built your own tiny house!!! You are INCREDIBLY inspirational :-)

[@jayadams2801]

[@Pete_R63]

A skydiving buddy of mine moved to Hawaii and lived out of a car for a while. He had a funny story about how tough it was when he met a girl and they would be driving around and she would say, "Let's go back to your place." and he would respond, "We're IN my place." I miss him. He died surfing while he was living there.

[@Pete_R63]

@Dog well, for you, knowing basically nothing about him except two short bits of information in a life of 33 years, nothing is apparent. He was a Rhodes scholar, lived an adventurous life. He was funny and annoying and did so many things. He bought a camel for $500 and at the time, was one of the few white men to take a camel caravan across the Nubian Desert in the Sudan. He hitchhiked across South America and taught English in South America so he could take a pack trip across the Andes mountains. He learned to skydive in England while there for his scholarship. He broke his leg in a demolition derby and had his lower leg in a cast for 9 and a half months and was able to still skydive with his cast and land on one leg. ln his arguably short life, he packed more living, adventure, travel, and experiences than most people do in a lifetime three times longer.He died in November of '92 and is still missed to this day and so many stories about him live on. Since I don't know you, I won't make any assumptions. Surprise us all and post videos of your adventures. The question also remains, 28 years after you have died, will you have friends who still remember you and tell funny stories about you? Or will you be forgotten?

[@ElizabethSollazzo-Daland]

" I am open to anything".. That is where this video lands up and isn't that the truth!! Back then proud you built a bed and now you can build and renovate your home. Then you got excited about buying mangos and bananas and eating them. Now you grow things in your garden and when you harvest them you think of them as ingredients for some amazing thing you can bake and cook and feed other people!
