Got some comments saying this video is sad, thats wasn’t the intention and I am not Sad 😂 just a peaceful day on the road.

[@cokeboys8590]

you really didn't say a word the entire video kinda boring to watch without any commentary

[@mkudron1]

Everybody's different. I've been married for 25 years have two kids. I do a lot of stuff with family, but I also never mind doing things alone. Before I got married I used to do all sorts of things, including travel, camping, RVing, basically anything and it never bothered me. In fact I enjoyed it. I think that's why my marriage has worked because I never needed somebody there, I found somebody who I wanted there with me. Still do.

[@SpareTimeGame]

Looks like the good life to me....I could use about 2 years of this in my life!

[@TonySparklp]

@@cokeboys8590 Nah. You need some chill videos now and then. It was a great video

[@geremycamasis5792]

You're living a peaceful life bro , keep doing that 😉😉

[@TexasPanhandler]

These videos are great. You mentioned in a recent video that you were concerned about putting stuff in that we would think is boring, but I think you underestimate how interested some of us are in the lifestyle holistically. It’s like a documentary for us; none of it’s boring to me! I’d be interested in hearing more about how you maintain your relationships while living largely alone as a nomad; that is something I can’t really wrap my head around.

[@soupasteldenata]

I fully agree!

[@alloasis]

Agree

[@SashaMaiC]

I agree too. Will your gf be travelling with you in the future? :)

[@amischair1906]

Excellent topic idea. 😊

[@aodonnell0257]

Well you just put it perfectly. Stay safe. 🙏🙏

[@doremae]

As someone who actually enjoys being alone this video is so enjoyable for me ❤

[@diamondly6250]

ya same as someone starting this soon its nice to see how things will really go

[@travelerscoffeecup]

A lot of people may say this boring or lonely. But in my opinion this is the dream for me. What you’re doing is my ultimate goal in life. So peaceful and beautiful. Keep it up man

[@sajithdinuka]

mine too. I love to be alone.

[@blackporscheroadster-yw8hb]

It may be good for 6 months even a few years, but you will get too lonely. The reality is a lot different than the dream. Loneliness can eat you up from the inside.

[@MyCleverHandle]

​@@blackporscheroadster-yw8hb And it can age you faster than smoking a pack a day.

[@BougieFeral]

looks like heaven to me. I love meaningful chit chat with strangers then...off I go! BYYYEEE!

[@CheeseMasterSports]

Ryan makes videos that cater to everyone; he makes travel vlogs of exciting places, simple videos about his van, and ones such as this one, that just silently showcase what it’s like to be in his shoes. Ryan is awesome

[@orapronobis2149]

Ryan you define alone and lonely perfect. You are in constant state of traveling and connecting in between your preparation in sharing with each of us. Your style is one to look at as healthy. You take time to connect with family by going home to Maryland (I live there!) and the friends you make are amazing. Your sharing I believe has allowed so many to be take a mental break like this. Yes it can be scary to expensive and you give all the great information in your video’s/. Alone is what you are doing or maybe call it SOLO. Seems so much healthier in sound. When someone is truely lonely they have nothing to look forward to. The lack of energy is so apparent in their appearance to attitude. You are doing a great service to so many who are thinking of disconnecting frrom the proverbial rat race. Stay safe. We love your journey.

[@LaurenceOConnor-fg4dk]

I lived in Bethesda, Maryland, decades ago. I left the U.S.A. for Ireland to live off grid for 15 years. Furthermore, I returned once to the USA in 2005 and will never return again.

[@redcronojm]

These videos are always soothing and calming, always positive vibes and fun adventures.

[@davenelson4334]

except for the feet cleaning part

[@lindat2009]

This chap is living the life for sure. Peaceful, active, organised. Love it

[@JASON-vn9nn]

My wife and I have a VERY busy house cleaning company and when we are all done for the day, we find your videos being so relaxing and perfect for unwinding. This one you produced was amazing. Thank you 😊

[@khamisama5747]

Do u want a 3som?

[@TBTeams4]

My god, I absolutely LOVE that peace and quiet of nature while having dinner!

[@Thebrolwmhubby]

You’re not alone! You got us with you every step of the way!!! Stay safe brother!!

[@DavidBryant]

So, if he gets into a car accident, you’ll be right there to lend your assistance?

[@Thenesrookie]

⁠@@DavidBryantYou must be fun at parties. Oh wait no one invites you 🫠

[@DavidBryant]

@@Thenesrookie ok.

[@SpyderWoman7]

So peaceful and beautiful, all of it. From the amazing views of mountains and stars, to the sounds of the desert, to the sounds and movements of cooking, cleaning and preparing for each moment of van life. Living minimally forces you to slow down and be mindful and grateful, I think, and you captured that beautifully. Thanks for sharing your journey!

[@nikkiep23]

Love the calmness and peacefulness of this video. Sometimes its good to just be in the moment.

[@captainsplash]

very quiet and peacful. it takes alot of mental strength to be alone that much for a long time. love the videos dude!

[@VanDoghies]

Agreed, very peaceful and excellent editing to show some of those Zen moments while being out in the wild, alone. Love this spot!

[@kathyhatch8982]

This video was phenomenal! The editing is spot on. It must have been so hard to do this without talking to the camera. Amazing story telling without words!

[@kenhenry297]

Your videos are great and thank you for showing the entire day, the cooking, cleaning, and everything that you have to do to live in a van.

[@colinbooth1265]

I love these videos. This type of nomadic living seems like pure joy, especially the solitude of it. Max respect!!

[@Johnny2Feathers]

Appreciate the time you take to set up cameras to record footage of you exploring the landscapes and also getting out of bed to turn them on then getting back in bed so they record you waking up. Makes us viewers feel like we’re there watching you in your natural state.

[@jpaulinc1]

I'm living vicariously through you and I'm enjoying every video. Thanks man.

[@CardboardChef]

I love these kinds of videos. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy all your content and hearing your plans and ups and downs through your journey, but these solemn kinds of videos are always a nice reminder of what it's really like and I really appreciate that. Edit: Also, from one cook to another, I love seeing the kinds of dishes you make while out there on the road. Always puts a smile on my face.

[@emmanuelmwangi6155]

Bro... Nothing about this is sad... Its actually entertaining to watch you live on a van and carry on that lifestyle for that long. Some people can't do it. I know i can't... I salute you bro.

[@SuperZekethefreak]

The nearly ubiquitous stack of dirty dishes in the sink in so many of his videos - classic! How I miss pulling up to a remote camp spot nobody had used in forever, just me and the campfire, the stars at night, the wind, a quick swim in a nearby lake or river perhaps, a camp cooked meal which was always more than I ever did at home. This was my church for years of my life.

[@braun3659]

I love these day in the life videos. Relaxing to watch

[@amischair1906]

Another great episode Ryan! Stay strong and safe on your journey. Thanks for bring us all along.

[@Zuendy420]

Man, the quality of your videos just keep getting better. Love them. Stay safe on the road!

[@gulftherapy]

I don’t know why this type of silent video is so captivating, but I could watch for hours. Very peaceful to go to sleep to also! Thanks for sharing!

[@chriskyle41]

Love the silent videos - makes me really appreciate your narration. Loving this road trip mate, keep up the good work!

[@amatz7605]

you are not alone.we all here watching your journey!❤

[@johnmainella3405]

Love the peace and serenity in your videos big fella.

[@kubilaykalkan7196]

It is such an amazing video. I love to hear the real life sounds the fire, traffic, footsteps, even gaming :) etc. Also i think that it is great way to show how is life for someone alone. Keep it up.. Cheers!!

[@islandgirl5472]

Aloha Ryan - Even when not a word is spoken…..it’s a great time to be had. How wonderful to live an empowered lifestyle that people like me only dream of. Thank you for taking us on adventures that we may never get to experience, to places we may never step foot on and those days of your “me time” is almost as if for that 14 to 15 minutes I’m having my own “me time” too.

[@dickasstley3738]

Exactly type of video's I like, it actually inspires me to live like that. Now I'm young, but in few years I really want to build myself a campervan. As I'm ok with small space and I can make compromises, and I'm highly introverted, I think I'm gonna enjoy it with all it's pros and cons. Thanks for these videos and your perspective

[@theriverqueen]

I love all your videos, I find these ones to be really comforting, thank you for sharing.

[@jego207]

I'm so tied down to many responsibilities at home and work. This looks like a welcome reprieve from the daily grind I deal with in the city. For a few days, I just want to explore the country, live a simpler life, and focus on myself. Thanks for sharing.

[@natashagalaxy7228]

As an introverted person with social anxiety and depression. Van life is like close to being perfect

[@gus4674]

That's called being a loser

[@wyork200]

Loved the change up from the usual content! Always love the normal videos but this is a cool change of pace. Keep it up man and safe travels!

[@azikuru8107]

man this is really beautiful, it looks so peaceful

[@brett_i]

Loved the story telling, I imagine there’s a lot of silence and very little dialogue being on the road by yourself. Much love and safe travels my dude!

[@KittyMewKat]

These versions of van life are awesome. A van doesn't make your life exciting you have to make your life exciting wherever you are and whatever you are in. The showing of the daily basics of living and maintenance is great. Love when you have added brushing your teeth into the video, priceless! The gas to move those vehicles all the time, wow especially with today's gas prices. It's all a trade in. Some days will be great and you will meet some special people or see some special places. Otherwise welcome to what you are showing here. Love the videos!

[@DIYlifer]

This looks the best time ever. I am so ready to get away from the hustle of it all and relax. Something about cooking on a fire takes all my stress away too. Great job Ryan!

[@lenr1762]

Loving these, Ryan. your videos are so soothing to watch. Keep up the uploads i'll be waiting for it

[@SABOREAME68]

⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love this video for the simple reason that, the peacefulness that you convey to the viewer is simply enviable. I have always said, I Don't Mind being alone, but feeling lonely is devastating for me. This is one of the reason's I admire those like yourself, who decided to try the Van-life and get to enjoy all of the beautiful places, that USA has to offer us without any rush. Stay Safe & Healthy... Abrazos

[@hstewar9757]

I lived in a camper van for one year. Your videos is EXACTLY what it’s like. It’s quite and peaceful.

[@VegasKeVa]

Here's EVERY video... wake up... drive drive drive drive drive someplace.... have dinner... go to bed.... repeat. One of the saddest videos was where you didn't go to Mexico. You constantly put yourself on such a time schedule, here at 11, here at 2, here at 3 - you need to RELAX and spend a couple three days in a place and visit the area/sites - which you do not do.

[@Rsfarmerbob]

Super chill video! This is my favorite video you have posted. Hats off to you for editing all those short clips! Was really neat to see the other half :) keep up the good work sir! Stay safe and drive on🖖🏼

[@TheWinterfox10]

Honestly... really sounds like a fantastic life. I'm glad you've been able to make it happen!

[@hectornunez7165]

Absolutely love these kind of videos! They give me peace & make me want to hit the road & explore this country.

[@WowAgro97]

I love this style of videos. They're the best to play in the background while I'm gaming. Love these

[@prelunatic]

Love it. Super chill and cozy. Kinda like a ASMR-esque video.

[@colindawson2590]

Watching your videos makes all the better to watch really enjoying your journey.

[@rhondalafond6832]

Thank you Ryan, as I start my journey in Vanlife Your videos are appreciated.

[@KimandFrank]

I like the content showing the Solitude while you're doing your traveling it's very self-expressive keep them coming

[@adrians9042]

Love your videos! So chill watching from bed after a stressing day at work. Greetings from Norway.

[@Sakura-zu4rz]

I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. ❤I like the essence how you live on. I need to be true to myself and find a job I am passionate about. I want to find a way to live as who I really am.

[@MikeSchellingMusic]

The thing I’ve come to realize about being a fan of these type vids is I love seeing someone else’s plans and routines in action while I sit on my ass.

[@iluvcat]

I really like these no talk videos it’s very calming

[@Stud440]

Hey Ryan! Hope your travels are going well! Appreciate the advice you gave me on your stream 🎉

[@route51]

Van life thru your eyes. Love it...

[@astreyert3723]

So peaceful. Glad i found your video.😊

[@JK-ly7fb]

This "what vanlife alone" video, is a completely different vibe to the other ones. I think Ryan shows how much appreciatiation he has for it in this type of video, where as the other ones did feel kinda sad cuz we felt bad for you. But like i said the story you told in this video made a clear understanding how you take it seriously, and you treat your van like your own home (duh) lol. Ofcoarse it may be bittersweet not seeing friends or family, but we can see that you admire the trade-off of all the amazing places you get to see! Love this video, and even more how different it is from your vlogs, ofcourse you documentarying what goes on in your day, or your recipe for the mouth watering camp fire cooked burrito are even awesome, but i like how you do something different in your videos every day (quite literally). 💖

[@alanbartley9347]

I think it’s so cool how you can do these kind of things and just go anywhere you want to.

[@prophecy3332]

I’m loving this kind of living 😍 peaceful serenity with a small house on wheels in the middle of nowhere beautiful 😍👍🙌🕊

[@Brandon12199]

I am really enjoying these Alone videos. I don't think you look sad at all I think you look at peace and digging your lifestyle

[@Asphodel27one]

Thanks for the views of the scenery (And the recipe ideas)! More of both please.

[@monklingtoneverjet2536]

you are not alone, we are all watching ya!

[@williemarroquin2965]

After a long ass day at work, these videos are exactly what I need. Great job man.

[@idunnomang]

This video made me feel awe and loneliness at the same time. Awe at nature and the freedom to enjoy it at your leisure combined with the loneliness of time passing by without another soul. On one hand I'm jealous and wish I was there but at the same time the thought of living this way all the time makes me almost look forward to going to work tomorrow and seeing everyone there. I think I would enjoy being semi retired and being able to go out camping on my own to decompress now and again. There has to be an adventurous young lady out there that would jump at the chance to go adventuring with you. Good luck with everything.

[@niceanology]

Still great content... always entertained.. thank you for your time

[@AdrianLamb]

These are my favorite videos. I'd love to see this style in the more urban/suburban areas too!

[@sharlenecook9865]

Great video.... I also camp alone.. I love it... it's totally freedom.. no drama... refreshing the soul mind and spirit... beautiful everywhere.. thanks for sharing your story... looking forward to seeing more...

[@apollo209]

Love this kind of vidz sometimes. It gives a better view on how it is when you're alone.

[@bonjourhappykids]

I love this kind of videos, its so calming to watch it :)

[@IMP3TIGO]

I really liked how you changed things up by not talking at all (except at cracker barrel) in this video. Solid work 💪

[@Jonathan0sterman]

I like both style videos, I'm really interested in buying a van and converting it. I've got a really decent paying job right now and I'm banking some serious cash, videos like these only encourage me to take the leap even more. Great work Ryan, keep them coming.

[@tijrus]

My guy! Thanks that was a realistic look at one day of van life. Loved the no talking!!!!

[@danmcdonald3723]

Looks like a good fire, good food, good games, and a gorgeous view to me. Great video!

[@conciergefrank1]

Awesome. Simply awesome. While I sit behind my desk job in downtown Philadelphia I watch with envy! Please keep up the good work.

[@elvirahancock9319]

Every Friday I catch up on your videos and have old school runescape on the other screen. Thanks for the hard work.

[@InkyTheIdiot]

Always enjoy your daily videos 🖤

[@davidgleason3379]

Nothing wrong with no talking nice to just hear the background sounds .I like the van very well laid out.have a great day

[@shanesmith5460]

I cant get enough of these videos. Simple.

[@Jimmy_Boy_Kalahati]

Raw and real. I like it.

[@calvinmarshall1610]

Looks like you're doing just fine thank you for sharing

[@CobyBWA]

i really like these style of videos tbh

[@dawnfisher7749]

I usually don't like videos without some kind of talking, but I understand why Ryan did it this way. Informative in its own way.

[@ilars_23]

Words cannot describe how proud I am off you. I have been watching you I think since the 20k of something and now you are at 178k. One day you will hit the 1 mil mark my words. 💯. Its just a matter of time. You will get there I believe in you. Not only I believe in you al your subscribers do.❤💯

[@motolife620]

vidoe quality always on top. keep up the good work Ryan! much love from Norway

[@nathanhofland5622]

that choice of music for the firepit scene was spot on

[@1Sparkyny]

I think you’re life is awesome man!!! It’s funny what ppl perceive as being alone is.. the loneliest people I know all just happened to be in relationships.. yes- you can be more alone than you ever felt sleeping right next to someone.

[@john-xu9iz]

I actually enjoyed this video and all of your videos I've watched. Thank you for keeping it basic(not an insult or slam) typically people have several others traveling to film but talk about being "alone"

[@subcult3329]

Please keep doing these!

[@michaelmeyerson5051]

Keep livin the life! While you strive, we all strive. For our intensity only defines our propensity for love.

[@khairulanwar8303]

your van layout is the most perfect i ever see...

[@carriegriffin123]

Love your Videos Ryan. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@XxSuPeRFLYFaTGUYxX]

Love these type of vids brotha!! gotta do more like this!!

[@LifeWitSed]

These are dope. I'd watch a whole series 🔥

[@pattyl60657]

I thought this was great! I watch them all & the solo days No commentary ones are awesome! They’re all awesome but showing this is reality! Stay safe Ryan!

[@seanquinn9288]

Really enjoying watching these videos at the moment keep up the good work

Amazing song montage at the end!! Real RDR vibes
