The drone footage with the classical music is absolutely beautiful.

[@arlettewhite8046]

Great videos. Be careful out there by yourself. It looks lovely, lonely and peaceful all at the same time. I'm 63 years old and not terribly adventurous, but living vicariously through all of you brave adventurous people. I love this!

[@joesr.shannavanausdall855]

I'm 50. But I'm going to do it !

The moment I saw him with the tortillas on the burner I knew then... he's definitely from California! 😆 got a little bit of Mexican blood in him!

[@markrichardson1657]

i do that too though, just had a gang of mexican homies.

[@nicolasblanc816]

Soooo.... for certain other states do not do this?

Very relaxing & calming video Jonathan. Great job on the editing. Your getting better and better.

[@youraussienomadfriends]

Hello gosh your videos have improved so much since we started watching you. Yes MAV is cool and he cooks fantastic food. Now never say old people,! We are aged people or seniors 😊😘. Enjoyed this video very much. Love from your Aussie nomad friends. Ps missing your girlfriend ❤️🤗❤️🤗

[@rustynailmendlesohn8710]

The scenery footage at the beginning of this video was absolutely beautiful Jonathan. Wow. I live in flat as a pancake central Illinois surrounded by corn and soybean fields. Stunning footage. TY

[@davidstreiten4693]

I live in shithole Arkansas and love the California coast as well as the Pacific Northwest. Stuck here in a shitty state because most of my immediate and extended family are here

[@joesr.shannavanausdall855]

Corn and soybean is beautiful as well. I live on the Prarie. Its all beautiful.

[@beetroot48]

Keep up the great work. B role drone footage with seascapes and red woods set to piano simply gorgeous . Loved the Mav reference. Blessings on your journey.

[@antlerjones9772]

I’m telling you, if you come out with a Beat the Status Quo t-shirt I’ll so buy one.

[@dorothyvaldez8458]

I would buy one too🙂

[@juliavater4648]

Just thinking the same…

[@jayj2day]

Yessir! You're finally doing it...living that rv life. Make them videos a little longer. Show some hikes, maybe some catch and cooks, and some city sites that you drive thru makin some stops and restaurants.

[@krusty1027]

The Costco membership would more than pay for itself with the savings you get on fuel alone if the ones in your area also have the fuel pumps.

[@dianaleila]

I absolutely love the music you use in your videos esp the 80s style synth pop. I feel like I’m watching an 80s road trip movie lol 👍👍👍

[@connieosburn6886]

Look at the trees 🌳their so big just amazed

[@Lylo-mj8ek]

"10 out of 10 morning!" "You all know the drill" BRAVO Mr.Yentch! You just made my week, Thank You. Peace.

[@maartena6283]

You’re amazing bud. Love your videos, super positive attitude, and the work you have put into your camper! Wicked.

[@pennyh3101]

Beautiful droneography… stunning views.. glad you finally living the life.. home on wheels.. enjoy enjoy.. God bless

[@samanthadodd8112]

Omg... that is so my usual breakfast when I camp. I just take a few apples and a jar of peanut butter for breakfast. Sometimes it's cheerios dry with peanut butter. Pouch tuna, crackers, cup of peaches, and pickles for lunch.

[@danieldixon4568]

Get you a folding tv tray to use your laptop and eat your meals. I bet at a garage sale you can find one for less than 5 dollars. They fold flat...

[@Babaghanoosh6]

I want this set up so bad. Looking at the older Tacoma’s and truck campers

[@sharongypsydove6080]

You know slumber queens are a Canadian camper.. Just in case you weren't aware..sooooo almost impossible to find is states

[@nicholastorres2442]

I love your shots with your drone!

[@chakaula8642]

Thanks for the pleasant, appropriate music! No head-banging, irritating, nerve-wracking, LOUD drum beats... finally, a youtuber who knows the difference between music and teenage discordant visual/hearing antics. Thanks. Aloha

[@hilariecalijo4643]

I live in northern Cali, But grew up in southern Cali. I’m in love with Northern California, it’s soooo beautiful

[@joesr.shannavanausdall855]

A young American living his Fullest life ! I enjoy watching inspiring people 😌 ✨

[@fenraven]

All the scenery and drone shots were gorgeous, but I particularly liked the coastline at 6:47. How beautiful is that?!

[@douge2657]

Dude, that was awesome

[@traceytheisen8067]

New to your channel. LOVE that you have a retro camper ..... so practical and real. Don't get me wrong, many of the van videos with crisp new interiors are gorgeous......but there's something so real about having a perfectly great everyday camper and you're bringing it back to life. Well done!

[@fireblitz999]

You should get one of those folding hitch steps. Would make getting in and out better!

[@reneevalery9449]

Yaay. My favorite meal I literally learned from you. I had some today too with sour cream to top. My new Military wife meal. Made some for hubby today

[@DigitalPetrol]

Thank you again, Jonathan, for another delightful video!

[@chingp7583]

Love your editing skills 👍

[@nomaderic]

Just left from there. Drove the 101 north from San Francisco all the way up to Washington There is soooooo much to see and do along this corridor. The redwoods, the epic ocean views, it took me days because I kept getting immersed in everything along the way

[@Hobojimmeh]

I love everything about this

[@jobethk588]

Love the ethereal music with the drone views.

[@---Joy---]

Absolutely gorgeous! Ty for taking us along.

[@treasureseeker2738]

Beautiful, thanks for taking us along with you and for sharing your journeys with us.

[@missmandolinaa]

So loving the drone shots!!! Such beautiful scenery. I never want these videos to end.

[@stevewoods8116]

2nd. The hike looked AWESOME..please show more next time...

[@LauraJayneRobinson]

Loved the drone footage, you are really good at filming ☺️ sometimes there's nothing better than going on a long tranquil walk. It’s definitely a great way of clearing your head.

[@vero8496]

❤❤❤Woh beautiful place and the images so crisp!

[@jestaaaa69]

Totally living vicariously through your adventure! Rock on!

This was awesome! I actually did that exact trail when I drove through the redwoods on my way up to Portland! The drive just keeps getting better

[@lawrencek9748]

Holy drone shots! What a well put together video Jonathan.

[@johnjohnson3447]

I’ve enjoyed your camper build videos. Thank you. Now you are on the road, these videos are enjoyable as well.

[@PlayingOutsideSomewhere]

I love how you can just pop out the top for morning coffee and crisp new air ahhhhhh those vibes

[@acesdoggieinn557]

Feelin your vibe on this. I like the fact that you have evolved in your pickup. That is inspiring enough alone. Just the idea of renovating and making it happen is enjoyable to see. Keep it coming. I got next :-)

[@RVSimpleLife]

Thank you for the video, very helpful info. Happy trails!!! ⛺️😊❤️

[@tone005]

Man love the videos just bought a pop up truck camper remodeled it for my weekend fishing trips got my inspiration from your vids. Also what sets you aside from other nomad vlogs for me personally is you show the ins and outs of living in the truck camper I love the food prep and cooking going to bed waking up making coffee dude don’t change that!!! Keep it up!!!

[@rw3100]

The Pacific Northwest vicinity is so well nourished(with the rich soil helping the trees and ferns)and everywhere you look, it's beautiful! As long as you're watching your back every now and the with the food and snacks, it's all good!🦁🐱🐻😲🤭! What an environment to do that coffee part!🤗☕🌲🌲

[@alexanderweaver4838]

Yes, I totally agree with Coleen Goodell. Your drone shots and the classical music really enhanced the quality of your video, Jonathan. Another enjoyable video and you eat well...the burrito looked amazing. Man, I cannot wait to hit the road and enjoy the freedom awaiting me. Thanks for sharing, brother!

I live in Humboldt and enjoyed seeing you enjoying it up here. I was at Costco on Friday! Cheers bro, happy camping!

[@donthomson1795]

Yes this video was great, & beautiful scenery

[@aaronvianzon]

Just finished a road trip from Ventura to Portland and back down, in my 05 Tacoma with a camper shell. Fueled up at mostly Costco, I wish I knew about camping there. Thanks for the tip. That would’ve saved us driving mad miles and hours to get to a rest stop closer to the Oregon border. Being a Costco member guaranteed us a clean bathroom, cheap gas and quick road meals. Great content my dude! Def encouraging me to vlog and documenting my trips.

[@IvyDhen]

What an awesome life😊! Love watching your vlogs.

[@graffix11us]

Born and raised in Nor Cal, it's where I fell in love with the mountains. In Colorado now, probably the only place that compares.

[@8Jah]

Beautiful and excellent editing.

[@alriciab.p.7936]

great video man.. keep it coming

[@ryancourtney2925]

Yo! A solid place to check out next to Lake Tahoe is a grouping of reservoirs. Ice house is the largest, but Loon lake and Gerle Creek are solid smaller options.

[@adventureswithrick8032]

That is a cool deal with the security guard! Thanks Cosco

[@leeeverett8109]

I just did this trip last April 6th - 20th. From L.A. up the PCH/101 California Coast, then I U-Turned @Crater Lake/Medford, OR; going south on the back side of the Sierra Mountains: Reno, Lake Tahoe, Bishop, Lone Pine and back to LA.
