I almost deleted this video. I felt like it was boring because of no adventure, but I wanted to show you what my life is like On the road. A lot of times it’s not adventurous. It’s just mundane and of course relaxing at times. I know these videos are not very popular. But this is the reality of my life. Most times, which is preparing for something.

I would rather see the reality of your life than something that is not true. Too many people are getting into van life because they think is always an adventure and that is simply not the truth

@@empress2500trust, I have plenty of mundane days on this channel. I don’t sugar coat anything. What you see is what you get. I show the good, bad, ups and lots of downs. I knew what I was getting into when I decided to live on the road. I knew it wasn’t going to be easy. I show all that in my videos. I live on the road because I want to. Not because it’s popular or trending. I’ve been living on the road for two years now. I just wasn’t feeling this video, but decided to post it anyways. Thanks for watching.

I wore it on a sailing trip in British Columbia where it was COLD. One time when getting off the boat to go hiking, I fell into the ocean. I went ahead and went hiking soaking wet. That Patagonia gear kept my body heat in; even though the layers under it were soaking wet, I was toasty warm! I have been a loyal Patagonia fan ever since! Congratulations on your great purchases.

The same can be said, for the puffer jackets and rain slicker, the puffer jackets that I purchased from Walmart keep me just as warm and are very reasonably priced. I tend to stick either with Cabela's or Columbia products, due to being able to find their products for lower prices-Happy trails.
