Three things are drawing me to your vlog, Emi: 1. Kelly kitty. She is amazing. 2. Your photography of nature and wild life. 3. Your cheerful attitude despite the difficult circumstances. Keep warm & safe. Here in New Zealand we experrience a heat wave. It is very hot summer. I wish I could send you some of it. 😀

Hi Emi! I’m also a patreon member for a long while now. Ive made many of your recipes from your book and your patch is sewn on my bag. I follow you because you give me hope in overcoming some of my own anxiety. I use to not be able to leave my house out of fear but for the past year about 2x a month I now will go to the store on my own. I couldn’t even drive myself but started that just by driving in my neighborhood. I follow a lot of van lifer but only look for your uploads because i know you are a true person not doing this for likes or money. I feel you really want to inspire people to live life and so I hold onto that. I’ve been saving for 3 years since watching you first time for my own van and my goal is to one day travel and live free like you do. I will be here for as long as you are. Joseph is another van lifer that I look forward to seeing. I’ve learned so much about myself because of both of you sharing your own journeys of self discovery. Thank you for sharing. ❤

Hi Emi, you need to get you a heavy folding Mylar car windshield cove to place between your head and the vans doors. When it's cold in the spring and fall my husband and I placed one between our heads and the tent wall. Really helps. My Sweet hubby passed away on May 31, 2023. I did go tent camping a few nights before our favorite campground camp host left. It was hard but was so needed. .I can't wait for Spring. Be safe!

It's supposed to get down to 3 degrees F overnight Tuesday (-16 C)..Brrrrr! I always enjoy your mostly cozy posts. You and Kelly stay safe, warm and well in your own upcoming storm. How cool on the otter!!! You got some great shots to share. If you ever have a place for more art, one pulled from the otter video today would be amazing.

I saw another person use flattened cardboard boxes to block the cold air coming in from the doors. I think otters and chickadees are the only creatures that enjoy a Canadian winter. Chickadees are always singing in a snowstorm, and otters like to slide on the ice. My dog and I were once approached by an otter wanting to play. Scared me to death.

There is a river otter in Lafarge lake....which is not a real lake. It's the oddest place to find an otter. Most of us have no idea how he got there since it's a man made lake in the middle of suburban neighborhoods. He likes to eat all the fish they stock the lake with every summer for local fishing. He's adorable. We also have a couple beaver's. Really wild for a tiny man made lake.
