surviving car life in 105 degrees

it was very hot and not very much fun lol but i still do love the desert

You impress me in so many different ways but I'm truly amazed at your food prep/cooking skills. Basic stuff combined in amazing ways. I love your videos. Thanks, Rosa!

[@001Catey]

You should get yourself a dish pan. So you can fill it with water and stick your feet in it when you're hot. That's what my greats used to do before there was ac. I've tried it, even if the water isn't cold it still cools you off.

[@Juju-l3o]

This is so true, for some reason my feet gets super hot in the summer heat so I always had to wash my feet or dip my feet in cold water and it literally helped with my body temperature.

[@001Catey]

@@Juju-l3o There are more bones, muscles and where nerve endings converge in your hands and feet then the rest of your body. Even if you can't soak your feet, you can wet the palms of your hands to cool off too.

These videos are really making me want to take the plunge into full time van life. Unfortunately I live in England we have summer for 2 days a year 😂

Must be Southern England if you are getting two days per year..We get one and a not so cloudy one up North..😂😂

😂😂 I have a friend who does KZbin car camping up in Scotland! He makes it work somehow

[@hamster4618]

Relatable. Netherlands. Rain, little nature, high cost for car parking 😂 Not to mention job that requires 2 large computer screens. I’ll just keep on dreaming. One day I’ll be retired, then I might do a road trip.

[@rogershaffer1]

Living in MA. We used to get summer. Now with global warming we just get really hot and humid or torrential rains. On a good day it only rains lightly. I envy you getting 2 days of summer

Rosa some of your photography is brilliant. You managed to get a great shot of the different shades in the desert, amazing with just your phone. Maybe you should sell a few shots online, make a few extra funds. I couldn't stand that heat but the desert looks beautiful in nearly all your scenes. It must have been especially hot inside Elrond, but you had the fan. Thank you for sharing all the great things you do. Take care.

Element tree, my dear, HotSun.

[@kriskabin]

A neat window ventilation idea can be found @ Rental Car Camping. ( A Japanese auto camping YT channel.) Mount in a thin plywood frame 2 to 4 usb computer fans. Power these fans with a battery pack. The plywood board frame holding the fans slides into the half opened window tracks on a vehicle's rear door.👌 Corrigated plastic sheet board works too, instead of plywood; it's more flexible. So, for ppl who don't want to hack a big hole in the roof of their rig for a Maxx Air fan, this is an easier ventilation idea.

[@bdheine2300]

You have plenty of fans!

[@lifeinmyelement]

😂😂 you guys are the best kind of fans

[@kenferrari9056]

Hi Rosa, Wanted to tell you your channel is fun. At the very least you place a smile on my face. Just finished watching all of your channel. First episode I saw was you cutting your hair. Favorite episode, Rings of Power rant. I agree!! Watched it. Never gave it a thought again till your rant. Sadly, your Phillies have beat my Giants two games now. Stay out of the heat.

Drink plenty of water in such temps. Ice coffee doesn’t count, caffeine actually discounts water content. Gorgeous sunsets. Texas has some good ones, although, the view is usually blocked by traffic lights &/or ugly buildings.

When I lived in my Jeep in SoCA last year, people knew it bec all my windows were 100% covered. I left the front side windows uncovered. I put up a black curtain between the front & back seat, hanging above my hips when I sat or slept. I put thick foam down in the passenger floorboard, I perfectly reclined everso against the center seats, and with all my pillows it was a perfect place, bec I was so low that people didn't realize I was inside..day or night. My blanket was black, so my legs were hidden. I was able to park in any Rich neighborhood, so no nightly hunt for a place to park. I was never harassed again or constantly listen to every car that parked near by. ~Cooking and cleanup took 2hrs plus a Lots of space, so I did OMAD, a new restaurant everyday! ~Living in a Apt now has been nice but a huge part of me wants to travel...but with Solar/AC/Heat.
