I interviewed to pastor a church in Alaska about 10 years ago. We got down to the final two but they chose the other guy. We had been there before so I kinda knew what it would be like. We're in our late 60s so living there is out but going back to visit is still on the list. My "bucket list" item is to camp in Yellowstone in January. We winter camp!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

God had a different and better plan for you I’m sure. That is a great idea!

[@moore_2_explore]

What a refreshing change!! Looking forward to it. Thanks for the book recommend-sounds inspiring!s Be well!

[@lauriedunn6198]

I told my husband you were flying to Alaska, first thing he said was " You know what happened the last time they went to Alaska...." loved seeing JJ's reaction to snow and ice :-)

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

😂😂😂

[@harrygoodman6724]

A great video, but a great start of a great chapter in your story! We are planning to go in our RV summer of 2030 after we both have retired. We love everything we have seen about Alaska… especially outside of the cities. Love you guys! P.S. You can still enjoy going into the gift store… just don’t buy anything! LOL

[@louheindel8673]

We are headed to Alaska this summer. Have watched all your vids….🙏🏻 thanks.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Yah! You will love it!

[@jmdavis4251]

We’re going to Fairbanks, Alaska 2nd week in April. What must have clothing should I definitely not forget for a female.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

We did layers! Good socks and shoes and layer up with a good warm jacket.

[@jmdavis4251]

Thank You. Stay Safe.

[@anniedew2592]

We went in early May 2017 and rented a Class C RV. We love it. Can’t wait to go back. The Milepost is an amazing detailed book and app for Alaska. Have an amazing time.

[@jfjdjdji723]

Seeing Judah's reaction to the snow and ice was precious!

[@vickywray7285]

I think it is amazing the life/experiences you are giving your children.

[@LiveFree123]

What fun! You guys are the sweetest and cutest family! It’s so much fun traveling with you through KZbin. Until next time.❤️💙

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Thank you for sharing your out-of-the-box experience. Blessings

[@shellyohara3379]

Woohoo! On my bucket list…. So looking forward to watching you all on this journey. What a wonderful experience for your little ones. You guys rock.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@HollywoodHappenings1]

Love the spontaneity of the adventures. I can't wait to see the next video.

[@amypletcher4411]

Never been to Alaska but have watched shows filmed there and videos here on KZbin and boy, does it look like an amazing place to travel to and see!!!! Can't wait to see your next videos... I'm living curiously through your videos. Thank you!!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you.

[@sondralane2798]

This trip will be just as spectacular as the first time….well maybe not quite, since JJ was an added family member on the way back to the lower 48!! We had planned on RVing to Alaska for our 50th Anniversary this year sometime but with all of the traveling restrictions for Canada we will take a wait and see approach. Since we are full timers we can pick up and go when things ease up. Can’t wait to see your next adventure in Alaska! The first Alaska trip was epic!! So enjoy your videos and your commitment to giving your children a extraordinary education through travel experiences!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Yah!!!!!

[@patbeaudoin4237]

So nice to see you go to a cold destination.Your children are such good travelers & Alaska is so beautiful. 🙂🇨🇦👍

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

We are pumped!

[@gatorfdx]

Hey journiers, you're awesome!!! Livin' life to the fullest! I ordered the book, thanks for sharing, stay safe up there!!!!

[@elainewilliams7184]

You might should patent and market your idea for the car seat roller for getting thru the airport! Smart! Can’t wait to see what all you do in Alaska!

[@jodymooney255]

I am so excited for the you and the family! Enjoy your time!

[@jamietardif2168]

Smart idea with the luggage carrier made into a stroller. Genius.

[@dorkladytravels]

Fantastic twist of plot in your story, can't wait to see how this trip goes... :)

[@asadventures_moriicoddiwomple]

Totally exciting! Enjoy it and the souvenir shops! 😉😊

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

😂😂😂

[@tinaroza8860]

WOW. What a bucket list? What an adventure? Thank you for taking me. Thank you soo much. I felt like I was there with you.

[@CheleBoxy]

Nathan, love the beard! What a surprise! Looking forward to seeing Alaska in winter through your lens. Love watching your adventures.💖

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thanks!

[@srice6231]

I lived in Fairbanks 20 years ago and March really is one of the best months for Alaska! It is filled with hope for Spring, the mama and baby moose would hang out in our yard, and we would cross country ski right on trails in the city besides watching the Aurora.

[@jillrandall4193]

March in Alaska is the start of breakup season Snow,slush on roads,rain and mild weather.The nice tourist weather starts in May.The further north you go the worst it gets.Good luck on your adventure.

[@Elizabeth-rq1vi]

Sounds so cool! I personally like breakup time. Never experienced Alaska in winter but have spent the last 64 years experiencing winters & breakup season…the season of joy & hope for drier & longer days

[@kimproffer695]

I love how you all are living life to the fullest! Have the best time!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Pops5]

Glad you winterized. In West TN we had 70... Then 4-6 inches of snow... And gonna be 75 midweek!!!! Looking forward to some epic adventures in the coming vlogs!

[@amynelson9362]

Wow guys, Alaska in winter! What fun! Ultimately, I think we need to consider if our life's story is about Christ - about loving, glorifying and, enjoying Him, about serving Him and others, and about making Him known.

[@Nitro5454]

Alaska is awesome. My wife and I along with my brother and sister in law were there also in 2018 on motorcycles. Have a great journey

[@living2ndchildhood347]

As a young men in the Coast Guard, I put in for Alaska. My Detailer spelled Valdez, Al this way: NEW YORK CITY! We never asked for a west coast assignment after that. PS: the 3 year tour in NYC was great!!! The reservation situation in Florida sounded a lot like a “Bait and Switch” con.

[@gailsfoodandstuff]

ok, sooo, wayyyyy back in the day, there was “name that tune” (a tv game show) and my mom and i could name that tune in one or two notes… she was huge into music and had a band that opened for some big names.. anyway, I just started your video and my guess is the song playing was “ode to joy”. ;-)

[@user-vm5ud4xw6n]

I’m with you Nathan! One bag travel? Dream on!! 2 thumbs up for air compressor action. Boy if traveling by RV gave traveling miles Hensley could probably go to Europe. That child has got some serious traveling under her young belt!

[@sow9880]

Born and raised in Georgia, I was stationed in Anchorage for 3 years in the early 90s . I would go back for a visit in summer but I'll never go back in the winter .

[@haraldweltzin5117]

The army sent me from Phoenix, AZ to Anchorage, Alaska with 4 hrs notice, in October. Very interesting trip.

[@jackel440]

What an inspiration. My life right now wouldn't make a great story. That hits in the feels but it's so true and I need to change that. Keep these great videos coming

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

So glad you found this inspirational! It is easy to get comfortable, but just pushing ourselves out of our comfort zone is so rewarding.

[@sarahseevinck8470]

alllllll the snacks. round trip transatlantic with a 3yr old and i almost gave up travelling....except we just booked to majorca lol. oh lord.

[@stephencantbewrong8250]

Fantastic!

[@defrost8648]

Oooh! Obviously, you’ve come and gone (from Alaska) already. Dang, it’s the main thing I don’t like about video lags. I would’ve loved to just said HI! while you were here. Now I’m wondering if you were here for one of the recent big snow storms or maybe the wild, nearly state-wind wind storm. I hope your family had some awesome, memorable adventures here in my home state! Winter travel here can be challenging, but OH! the scenery! Did you happen to take the AL Railroad “Aurora Train” from Anchorage (or Talkeetna) to Fairbanks? It’s an awesome winter experience. I’ll be watching for your next installment.

[@judithcoe7551]

I hope you stay warm and drink plenty of water and give your bodies time to adjust. Prayers for wisdom and guidance.

[@tonyafun244]

I am so glad I came upon your channel. I love watching you guys. I will be going to Alaska at the end of May via a cruise line. My first visit and hopefully my last vacation not in an RV. I am hoping by this time next year I will be selling my home and living in an RV full time. I think the scariest part is possibly doing it alone, but it seems there is a great community out there. Thank you for sharing your adventures with all of us.

[@donnawarren4210]

We choose to go to snow anytime! We love Alaska and glad you've done it in winter. It is truly fabulous.

[@darcyrobb3692]

Catch up with the Somers Family. Enjoy Alaska” is on my bucket list too!

[@laurieneff4780]

No Way! I was in Alaska for the start of the Iditarod! Was there for a week, went on my own dog sled ride! This being my 4th trip to Alaska, was the best one yet!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Very cool!

[@bettyruth9142]

Sure y’all had fun!! Such a cute family !! 😀😀😀😀

[@sophia4christ]

Baby #3 Loading....... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Enjoy! ❤😁🇯🇲🤗 ❤

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

😂😂😂

[@fjbutter1813]

You are 'visiting' the souvenir shop, just not buying! :-)

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

😂😂😂

[@keithramsdell2691]

And I thought we were so unique, pulling our son along the streets of Paris in a car seat attached to a luggage carrier. Great minds...

[@jfjdjdji723]

We're just leaving Florida and now I wanna go to Alaska! It's so great that you have friends there that you can visit. Have fun!!

[@michelleconcannon7584]

aww, just let her check one bag!! Nothing ever goes back in the same way, on the way back ;)

[@ED-ti5tc]

Really glad y'all made it back! My favorite place also. Hope y'all have a fantastic trip!

[@mikenowak2360]

Amazing looking forward to all the new adventures.

[@alaskastarr]

Woohoo, ya finally got to see our state in the “spring” I’m glad you got to visit. I’ve been hiding in my house being cold!! Lol! But that’s a whole other story. Love seeing y’all enjoy life. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you.

[@bevtrue6937]

Alaska!! What are you, silly? Jayjay wants to take his globe to Alaska.

[@irenehinojosa6629]

Enjoy Alaska we will look forward to your videos of the area you explore.

[@CookingwithCatLover0330]

So cool! I'm excited to see all that you do. Thanks for taking us along.

[@nancysmith903]

Brave family living their best life. Good for you!

[@ashleywtson5788]

I'll be in the Key's in July can't wait. What do you think about gas prices? Will you reconsider rv life due to gas prices?

[@CheleBoxy]

I'm wondering how that's going to affect all the full-timers.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

We will not reconsider RV life we will just adjust. 😀

[@richarddavis2712]

Can't wait to see this chapter of your journey!

[@1MillionMileRoadTrip]

Antifreeze in the water lines? How do you flush it to drinking water again? We are fulltime and only drink from a Berkey . Hope y’all “enjoy your journey”. We are faithful followers.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

It is non toxic RV Antifreeze. When we are back we will just flush the lines.

[@melissalee333]

Looks beautiful 🤩 stay warm.

[@dianasellars6114]

Would love to see Alaska but NOT in the cold.

[@claytonvogel1252]

My bucket list is one year in Alaska. Hanging in Arizona boondocking it a friends small Ranch. Heading to Alaska in May for a year. Wife will fly home for holidays. 25 ft 5th wheel. Safe travels. Show Me RV Adventures. C&D

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That is awesome!

[@brianlawton6162]

Hey guys! I saw that you referenced “A million miles in a thousand years.” Have you read his book, “Through painted deserts” about his cross country journey in a VW camper van? If not, I think you’d really enjoy it! Thanks again for sharing your life with all of us!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

I will check it out, thank you.

[@brendenspudsbenjamin]

That is so freaking awesome! So exciting! The crazy thing is, I'm about to do the same adventure! I leave May 1st and I'm spending the entire summer in alaska! I'm driving up there with my trailer from Idaho. My grandparents are also going with me and taking their truck and their fifth wheel is already in Alaska. I sold my lawn care business and decided it was time for a change because of the exact same thing you were saying, what is your adventure story?! I'm so freaking excited! Love your channel and videos! Stay safe! 🤠

[@stratos175escape7]

Going to Alaska backpacking the end of August 1st week of September, never been so really looking forward to it. Enjoy the road and stay safe.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Sounds great!

[@mimijohnson7714]

Y’all have a blast! So Marissa….were you just joking? I thought on your last FB post you said you ARE pregnant? 🤔

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That was a short throwback video to when I found out I was pregnant with JJ. This is was in honor of JJ's birthday coming up.

[@sherriweber7105]

Sad you couldn’t go to Florida within friends but now your in Alaska. That’s a great place too! Cold but Alaska is beautiful from when I saw your videos. The kids will have fun there. Awesome you have a place to stay at a friends house. Can’t wait to see more videos of what you will be doing in Alaska with your family. Enjoy yourselves have fun. Oh I love that seat plus stroller you used for JJ. That is so cute. Have fun see you all soon! Stay safe.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you.

[@blk123]

Love this video and the life you are giving your family.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Thank you so much!

[@kevincoughlin4459]

Nathan isn't that a bit drastic? Trading the Keys for Anchorage in the winter? At least you won't get sand in odd or unusual places! Didn't Marissa have problems with that bag when you packed for Hawaii?

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

This winter was more frustrating trying to find places to stay so we thought we would go the exact opposite and head north. 😀

[@SILzimb]

Love the beard on Nathan and new highlights on Marissa (superficial detail)❤️🌹

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Aww thank you!

[@brittneyzarcone]

I still have that Roxy jacket too 😅🤩

[@Challway]

I did you try “Boyd’s Campground”? That’s where I stayed when My Son Moved to Key West.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

No, reservations this winter were tough and frustrating. 😀

[@kaygalg6533]

Dont know why I first thought of Greenland lol. Marissa what brand is that green fleece?? It looks so soft and cudly!,

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Would love Greenland! It is from Target.

[@douglasnuijten3441]

Go to Texas

[@BillandKelleyAdventures]

I (Kelley) love snow over sand any day!!!! I can't wait to see everything y'all do.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Aww yah! Snow over sand. Love that!

[@julesj8139]

I need to know where you got that adorable fuzzy green jacket! I love it 😍 🏔 🏔🏔😍

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

TARGET!

[@weldoncummings3989]

I live in the Florida Keys in Islamorada…on the ocean..have set up for rv..

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

That would be awesome. A 40 ft 5th Wheel? 😀

[@jolenecreech7648]

Wow 😯 ALASKA????? How fun!

[@juliannwatson9232]

Have A Blast! 😀😀🙏🏻❤️

[@wolfeb99]

I hope that wasn’t auto anti freeze. RV antifreeze is not toxic but auto anti freeze is very toxic.

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Yes RV antifreeze.

[@kellyparies1983]

I need a recommendation for around Oklahoma City area for full hook up for a class a

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

We wish we could help, our trips to that area have been quick.

[@ChasingTravelAdventure]

Hope you or someone answers but WHAT are those packing cubes???? Link please!!!! I’m headed to AK this December 😁

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

Not sure which ones you are referring to but we originally used them when we went to Hawaii. Here is a link to our gear. www.lessjunkmorejourney.com/gear/hawaii

[@ChasingTravelAdventure]

@@LessJunkMoreJourney it was the tripped cubes!

[@wanderingstar3498]

I'm so jealous. Alaska is the only state I have not been to. I've tried three times to go and something always happened. I finally gave up (temporarily) on my dream of driving the AlCan highway and planned a cruise with friends and you guessed it...Covid. Someday, I WILL make it. Have a great time.!!!

[@daisyspeedy1]

It's so beautiful in AK in winter .. it's way worth it ! Dry cold and so much fun. My hubby is from Anchorage and me and the kids lived there a year.

[@bobmakow55]

One way, love it

[@livethelifeyouvedreamed4040]

P.S safe travels

[@alaskaheidi2955]

The biggest one time snowfall I can remember was March 17th 199? Hopefully that won’t happen again 😊

[@drinkinslim]

Did Nathan sing the intro song? If not, it sounds just like him!

[@LessJunkMoreJourney]

😂, no Nathan doesn't sing anything.

[@johnnylightning1491]

OK this proves it. I'm thought for a while that Nathan had lost his mind, running around in the snow barefoot proves it. But then he married Marissa so maybe he hasn't lost his mind. Whatever the case I don't think I'd be running around barefoot in the snow. Have fun in Alaska. Keep the good stuff coming guys and give the kids a hug for me.

[@allankroll7786]

I was going to Guess Alaska I worked up there during the summer last year and I am actually heading back this year as well.

[@kristinekloepfer1505]

If you guys are still in Alakska you should schedule a meet and greet for us West Coast peeps in Seattle on your way back!

We were at Dollywood Friday and it was 70 degrees and by the time we got home it was snowing Hahah you just never know. I love Alaska the winter I did a 6 month travel nurse assignment back a few years ago and now yall have me wanting to go back !!!!
