Van Stealth Camping in an Active Oil Field on the Arctic Ocean

[@thetravellingpicker5096]

Give your van a pat on the dashboard. 15000 miles, no breakdowns, no major issues. This journey has been fun to watch.

[@Originalman144]

Would be a great advertisement for Dodge. Their social media team lacks creativity and they rarely post any real people stories. This story would be a great feature for Dodge and Ryan could earn some marketing cash.

Thank you for taking me along on your journey. You took me to places I will never experience. This 78 year old single lady thanks you from the bottom of my heart. You are a joy to watch and I look forward to all of your videos. God bless you and keep you safe

[@Ryantwomeyy]

Thank you so much, Im glad you enjoy the videos! Is there any place in particular you want me to go check out? Maybe Ill do a video on it for you

[@joansimons6205]

No place in particular. Just keep taking me along for the ride. You are a joy. Thanks for responding .

[@cyntiaspadafore1457]

I can honestly tell you, I do not miss those ridiculously large mosquitoes that we battled in Fairbanks most of my early life. We wore the same little netting top and bottoms that you had on actually had to wear them even to go to the grocery store or to your friends house to play or even to hang laundry out on a clothesline. They were relentless. There weren’t any oil fields when I was in school in Fairbanks we would go to the Arctic Circle to camp every summer as a family and there wasn’t anything like that not even an airport. It was very primitive.

[@titaniumismagical8643]

I would have never thought there would be a mosquito problem up there. You learn something new everyday.

[@smilin_wanderer]

Had a similar experience growing up in Vermont. Those little guys are relentless

[@SirSmokeAlot536]

That would suck. I am in Washington. Clearly nothing comparable, would hate that.

[@SirSmokeAlot536]

I guess I’ve had a few critical camping experiences but they was never “fat” “big”

[@theathjr]

I remember studying Alaska with my son years ago for his major school report and I learned so much about Alaska. BUT NOT ABOUT THE KILLER MONSTER TEXAS SIZED MOSQUITOES ! Lol. Thank you for that info.

[@shabazan]

As a vanlifer, I know I’ll never get to do this. That said, I love that I can make this journey with you… stay safe.

Hey Ryan, I’ve been watching your videos for quite a while. I’m a grandma in Florida. Congratulations on achieving your goal. You are literally in the van down by the river in Alaska. I’m ready for our next adventure.🎉🎉🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@Grevlain]

I have wanted to get an RV and hit the road full-time for many years. I recently decided to just get it done. Im preparing and I'm probably 6 months away or so from starting my adventure. But I want to tell you, Ryan, you are an inspiration to me. And this series has been a major motivating factor. I will now plan to do the trek North probably in year 2 of my travels. So, thank you Ryan.

Create a KZbin channel so we can follow u too!

Will you be posting your adventures on KZbin? If so I will be subscribed to your channel

Crazzyyyy how I started watching you 8 months ago already! Times flown by for me haha so maybe it didn't feel as long as it did for me than it did for you.

[@cyntiaspadafore1457]

Sure enjoyed your trip from Key West to the Arctic Circle. Fantastic adventure.

[@nickyp310]

I would love to see more of these EPIC road trips. This was amazing. This is my second time watching your entire FL>AK playlist. Have you thought about doing the original Route 66 from Santa Monica to Chicago? I did it in the summer of 2020. It's a time capsule of pre war Americana and ghost towns.

[@patalsup8572]

That was a hell of a ride. Thanks for taking me along and braving the ugly mosquitos😊❤

[@benwagner1014]

Ryan you should do a full US series. Like visit every US state and see all of the cool landmark and naturistic spots.

[@Ryantwomeyy]

This is actually a really cool idea. I might do something like this next summer

[@BramWarrick]

Simple little comment. Cooking isn't my thing, but your videos are. They're simple, happy, authentic and a wonderful pocket of zen. Thanks for doing the thing you do.

[@billthomas6296]

Congrats Ryan! I want to thank you for sharing your wonderful life long dream and adventure with all of us.

I have always wanted to travel throughout the USA in an RV for a long time, before I was a truck driver. I don’t drive a truck anymore, but you taking us on these trips are phenomenal. I might be looking into getting an van and start my life journey. Hopefully sooner than later. I might end up regretting it if I don’t. Thank you very much for all the hard work you do.
