My Morning Routine: Life in my Toyota Corolla

I didn't think I had a routine on the road, but then I noticed all the little patterns I fell in to, especially in the mornings that I was not waking up for a sunrise hike somewhere. I suppose us humans tend to crave consistencies in life, and I realized that I was really enjoying the tiny routine I had created for myself each morning on the road. Anyway, I just thought I would share, because why not? Thank you all for watching, and I hope you enjoy the weekend!

You are learning valuable lessons most people never do in a lifetime. Savor it.

Beautifully narrated Angie. ❤ It looked like a peaceful & serene place to start your day. I have, of late, been ignoring every beep my phone makes... I'll get to it when I'm ready....am trying to find some quiet in the 'noise'. Getting out in nature certainly resets my mind, and allows the volume of 'fluff' in this world to be turned down. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤ I hope you have a fantastic day & safe travels. ❤

[@aliciathomas6868]

Loved this one so much I did not want it to end… love your narration of your travels.. thanks for the great videos ❤

[@samrusoff]

really nice. not trying to show off a routine that everyone is going to be jealous of or impressed by, just showing what seems like a genuine and real example. left me wishing we could continue watching to see what the day brought, where she headed, and how she ended the day. glad to see very attainable, down to earth, non-sensationalized content about living a nomadic, minimalist, independent life.

[@swiftpaine]

Hi Angie, you have a lovely way with words and your insights on the quiet, slow way of life are so inspiring.

[@salmanhaider3876]

Amazing! I got inspired to car camp in my 2018 Toyota Corolla after watching your videos and traveled to Badlands and Yellowstone from Indiana!

[@Melifter]

Your back and joints are going to feel like a broken 2x4 when you’re 50 sleeping in a car.

[@newsystem3667]

Do you really live in your car or only while recording the videos?

[@IntelligentAtheism]

4:15 Not a dog but i can be your pet bear whenever you want 😅Just kidding. Don't get angry, please 🙃7:24 Besides i could do the dishes for you; tbh i think you use too much soap 😅Just kidding. Just kidding 😂 Sighhh. Love is beautiful, isn't it? 😊👍

[@777cretbo]

Wow, I'm exhausted after a week in the office cubical 😕 Its been years of a trapped mind! I've gotten older! Thanks for the escape even if just for a few minutes! > Bob

[@FastasFox35]

Your storytelling is amazing. So soothing. If you're ever back on the Oregon coast look me up I will get you a free oil change from my work.

[@dr.alaricshawncastleberry6789]

Peaceful, serene, and coffee ☕. Thank you again for sharing 😊

[@dbree9668]

I spent 30+ years out there, I'm old now and had to put down roots, I do miss traveling along, but it's nice to come home also, I will suggest you get a dog as they can be very useful for many reasons

[@lukekao8136]

Time for dumpster pancakes! yay! jk Sorry, couldn't help myself, Angie. lol

[@RenegadeRideout]

I love this video. I could listen to this as a podcast journal. Great storytelling, Angie!

[@harijagarnauth]

I enjoyed watching this video and found it interesting 👍

[@Chicago_Clout]

Where do you manure?

[@darrenanderson7200]

We need to get you a small van. I'm only an occasional viewer but a small good quality van.

[@explorewithme4707]

I like to go on roadtrips in my Toyota Matrix. Its just a hatchback Corolla. You should remove your passenger seat. Then you got more room. Then you can buy a Camp chef oven. Would be a nice upgrade for you. Or just a small BBQ.

[@lukekao8136]

Did you name your car, Angie? If so, what her name? hmmm?

[@Glorifiedslave]

Thank you for sharing your journey and wisdom with us; also your PEACE & FREEDOM🙏🏼💕🎶

[@jacktheman1989]

A girl living alone in the woods is scary... maybe I've been watching too much Dateline, lol

[@sofachang]

Thanks for sharing Angie, everything was beautifully said

[@jeremyweatherly5979]

How do you make money while your out there

[@supremecloudbusting]

This is great. Love the pace & the peace ❤

[@doriscollins3590]

Another great one. Thanks for this. And I think the feeling is...Freedom!

[@kharismaarum1696]

u just made ur own movie. u good at story, u're the main character in ur life

[@kingcraven8056]

The River Why by Duncan is a good book to read while traveling the coast range. I have a feeling your an English lit major so you might have already flipped though it. Big Sur is Kerouac and Monterrey is Steinbeck. Ken Kesey fits in there somewhere. Lets not forget Tom Robins. Coast Hwy has a way of slowing people down with all the twists, turns and foggy mornings. Just remember to stop and have a beer along with some fish and chips. I've done coast hwy any number of ways and a Vette, credit card and a day pack seems to be the most fun. Endeavor to persevere as you are putting a good spin on the travel vlog.

[@JimJenks1]

Thanks Angie, the days with your videos are so much better than the days without! Now please put me on the waiting list for a signed first edition of your first novel.

[@roadtripmitch]

You're always hungry. I've only had 1 cup of coffee in my life and that still doesn't sit very well, even today. Please don't leave your shoes outside for any length of time, things scurry in. While that can be startling, it also can send you to the Hospital, a few minutes possibly a few hours... Safe Travels and adventures!

[@shoshishaw8762]

How do you make money living this way while traveling? I've always dreamt of doing this and have been working on converting my car. I've been struggling lately trying to figure out how I'll make an income while traveling to and through places with spotty or no service

[@OlegFilippov-e5m]

Angie I make coffee same way you do , I see you drink Peets I don't know if you know , but , least roasted coffee beans have the most caffeine , just to help you have complete pleasure enjoying life , freedom , nature :)

[@phaedrawhite3746]

You are a gifted storyteller this is one of my favorite videos

[@shubhamsalunkhe7636]

01:57 you can save some propane by lighting up firewood from the jungle and creating a stove with 3 or 4 stones

[@Mayankbhattacharya]

Very well written and narrated Angie. More power to you! Keep ‘em coming. :)

[@kali5587]

It's brave of you to do this 🎉

[@serenitycoastUK]

I enjoy your videos. Do you have any plans to maybe get a slightly bigger car like a people carrier or something

[@enricoflor3601]

Here's one to add to your morning musings... gifting Old Faithful the hubcap that she misses, for giving you your trans-American sojourn.... which we happilly ride along with you, BTW 😊

[@ibz3474]

Do you genuinely like this life? Being completely alone 24/7 nobody around no human contact no friends or family or anybody around you idk living the kind of life you’re living it just looks sad no offence if you like it good if you do but idk seems crazy

[@hearto_fion]

I know right?!

[@thesloth944]

​@@hearto_fiondoesnt show the struggle of waste disposal, unsafe sleeping, hygiene practices, dangers , shes fooling her viewers 😅

[@conrad1468]

Perfect spot for a nice morning. Mind wonder is the best for the soul. Enjoy the day.

[@kovie9162]

Although the specifics were different this reminds me of my own daily morning routine when I went on my cross-country adventure in my car. When I didn't stay in a motel or with friends and family I camped, usually next to my car. Like you it was boil water, make pour-over coffee (I'm a cream & sugar guy), some sort of hot or cold cereal, linger a bit, then clean it all up, take apart my tent and pack everything, organize my car as best as I could, and hit the road. I usually knew where I'd be headed as I planned things out, but there was always uncertainty and surprises, like bad weather, closed roads, traffic, side trips to restock supplies and maybe get some "real" food (Taco Bell was my favorite, cheap, tasty and filling). But although I've never been a morning person this morning routine felt special, a time to get my bearings and in touch with things before heading out. I also kept a journal, but it was more about what I did, bought and spent, where I went and what I saw and did each day than my thoughts and observations. I should dig it up and re-read it. I miss all that. I feel like I should do a mini version of it, even if just for a weekend, just to get away from my regular routine. I think that this is why most of us watch your videos, Angie, to vicariously experience or re-experience this cross country adventure of yours. It's important to do something like this now and then, even if just for a day or two, although everyone should have such an adventure at least once in life.

[@yotu9670]

Wow. Damn good music at the beginning love it. And the words just pretty good. So lyricy. Woah the whole video is damn good. You really have thought through everything here. Music, Text, Composition. Wow I am really impressed

[@ruelpile]

Love your videos and quirkiness!!

[@1emin3mfan]

That’s the goal 🤘🏼😁maybe can do this eventually. Your doing a amazing job keep having a wonderful time.

Were u in the Navy? Looked like Interstellar in the beginning. Poetic verbiage. Thank you for sharing!

[@dcornel77995]

We sleep on opposite sides of the same car same color same dishes too. I left a house or two behind with a fence and a dog. What is this feeling, such writing and editing of the question of your movements thru your day and not just the efficiency of reaching your destination, this feeling is being in touch! Thank you for sharing this beautiful insight to your love. I cried a joy for you as it ended.

[@GameFlife]

like a poem

[@petemarron6677]

I thought you got a van

Nice video Angie! Thanks for sharing it with us!😎JP

[@MagisterialVoyager]

that was absolutely lovely. thank you so much fro sharing, Angie.

[@karensiddall3511]

I’ve just watched two of your vids. I loved this one! Your observations, feelings, questions about feelings, etc. A lovely set up in your Corolla! Way to go. Enjoy your adventures. The outdoors is so very special. Doing this alone is also special. Enjoy. I have enjoyed camping in my Corolla with a tent, past few years. But next week I am planning to camp, and sleep in my car. Lol Im retired and my greatest times are camping and padding my kayak. Alone. Lol.

[@Knserbrave]

This is an excellent video so beautifully worded. It resonates perfectly with me and I know with many others. Thanks for sharing your journey.

[@soljohnson3307]

One tip in case it isn't part of the morning routine. Check your engine oil every other day and top up if necessary. The Corolla is the most reliable car in the world but any engine may still burn small amounts of oil with temperature fluctuations, lots of idling, extended drive times etc. Would just hate to see you slowly wear your engine out prematurely due to low oil. Safe travels. Welcome to life on the road..🙏

[@Lisa-eo9gd]

Yay! A new Angie on Tour video! I discovered your channel by researching living in a corolla. I wish I knew how to promote you to others. I'm sure they would like you! On your travels have you considered a trip down the Buffalo River? It's a pretty place with clear water, rock bluffs, etc. It's in northern Arkansas. You could float the river this time of year or come in autumn to see the tree leaves turn color.

[@simplybeingme]

What a beautiful video! Thank you for sharing

[@ImaniD.J.Jackson]

You’re such a beautiful soul(inside and out), thank you for sharing this journey with us. Praying for continued blessings to fall into your lap!🤍🦋

[@simplybeingme]

[@utrips4free]

Angie, I really love this episode. From the begin to end. This feeling…Is it a curiosity or a craving? Possibly a thirst for our soul? I anticipate it will take time to fully answer. In the meantime I’ll look forward to your future videos. Thanks Angie, I love your creativity.

[@kingcraven8056]

Question. Is it worth the money and time for a couple from Kansas to drive up to Alaska or take a cruise? I'd say no. Go to Amsterdam

[@danimarco]

Great appreciation for you Angie and your exploration which I have enjoyed and inspired me!Love and Peace from Italy 💚🙏

as a tenkara fly fisherman, I kept looking for trout in that creek.

Hola Angie, I enjoyed watching, but not in a creepy way, your very talented!

"What is this feeling?" Beautiful :) If we all lived like this more often I think the world would be better off

[@solidzeng]

[@werbnaright5012]

Sounds like the feeling of finding your place in the world, if even just for today. I don't know if there's a word for it.

[@nickhoward7952]

You enjoy a level of freedom few are able to experience. Keep enjoying it, and inspiring others to seek that freedom too.

[@jimmyrhino6176]

Well looks like you're doing it. Stay strong, everyday is an adventure. Enjoy every minute

[@smalltownhomesteadAC]

Lovely Video. Thanks for sharing.

[@MyLittleFarmhouse]

I watched this video and now I sit here looking around at all of my belongings. It’s all nothing I need. I walk past it each day and not notice it. I could walk out tomorrow and not miss it. What is this feeling? “It’s my plan for tomorrow”! 💕

[@noseraph]

I'll take all your stuff, leave it with me.

[@rachelwoodbury5593]

This video was pure poetry! This really makes me want to slow down and unplug more
