Hello! We are Brian and Michelle, a dynamic couple with a passion for adventure. We have decided to take a bold leap and transform our lives. We sold our house and most of our belongings to buy an RV and hit the road, embracing the full-time RV lifestyle. Our mission? To explore the beauty and diversity of North America (maybe even the world eventually) while sharing our journey with the world right here on our RU-vid travel channel (LivinRVision).
This channel is full of content that documents our adventures, offering viewers a front-row seat to the joys and challenges of full-time travel. From stunning travel vlogs showcasing breathtaking landscapes to practical tips on RV maintenance, budgeting, and boondocking, our channel is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the RV lifestyle.
We mainly use a car wash and once in a while a truck wash but always make sure to tell them not to use chemicals such as hydrofluoric acid, which can react with chrome and aluminum to cause corrosion and pitting.
Kuchen is a custard base also using cottage cheese in many. I love the peach kuchen. I make it myself just like I make rosettes, lefse, caramel rolls, krumkake etc. A lot u don't see anywhere else or not often!
Bryan another great video. I love the information on the history. I’m writing down these places for our future travels. We like the offbeat quirky stuff like the big cow.
I absolutely love this channel. Marking another destination on my places to go because of your videos. I was in Yellowstone last month because i watched your trip there and followed your advice. I loved it and appreciated your advice and experience. Thank you.
I just came across your video blog.. i live in Montreal and was just telling my BF that I wanted to do the whole 'be a tourist in your city' kind of thing. This video inspired me to look into it and i shared it with him. On a side note, what is the csmera yiur using? Keep up the good job 👍
I'm confused on what type of bedding you're using. We have a 2022 Grech Strada Tour and are looking for a queen size solution to what your using. Thanks in advance for your help and response! Best, Matt - Albuquerque, NM
Here’s the link to what we use from our Amazon Store on livinrvision.com Someone recently told us that they discontinued them but I would check because they still show up. amzn.to/4coAHjd
It's nice you enjoyed your time at the Frontier Village. We live near Jamestown. Kuchen is something I grew up loving and eating. My mother made the best ones. I, too, have made them and while they aren't as good as hers, they are pretty good. The crust is similar to a bread dough. There is no cream cheese in kuchen. It is a custard made from sweet cream, sugar, and eggs. We like ours topped with small pieces of fruit like, peaches, raspberries, or rhubarb.
Your camera handling is spectacular! Great editing! Care to share the camera/lens that you find most useful? It looks like you are using a 360 camera for the shots over the top of the van, and a smaller action camera for the arm's length selfies, but it is gorgeous landscapes you capture that sets your videos apart on this 2 part series. Are you using a gimbal along with a mirrorless and a longer lens? Very nice!
Hello! Any campground we stay at is listed in the video. Sorry, we get so busy that we don’t always recall the names but we do put them in the videos so that you can find them. Our videos are filmed and edited then scheduled for release, so by the time you watch them, we are long gone and working on more projects.
Hi Love following your channel, we meet you in Tampa last year. What I was wondering when you are at a campground and take off for the day is how do you save your sure so someone else doesn't pull on to it? We lost a come we had on our spot someone just came and took the cone, we did still have the spot but liked my collapsible come I had. We have a new Roadtrek headed to the 50th year Rally today in Canada
If you reserve a certain spot at a campground and the campground has you assigned to that spot, nobody else should get assigned to it. We had a cone stolen once a couple years ago so we stopped putting it out. We have not had anyone steal our site yet, but we do worry about someone doing it even though we have the site reserved. We always tell a campground that we come and go since we have a van and sometimes they give us a reserved sign to put on the pedestal. For the most part though, an assigned site will not be assigned to someone else when you have it reserved.
Welcome to North Dakota, you should drive west on highway 200 when you get to Beulah and go through the roundabout continue west and about 3 to 4 miles look north and you will see the largest coal dragline in North Dakota, ran completely on electric power
24 ft long if you need to measure your driveway, but to answer your question, it depends on what is considered average. Some homes have a very short driveway like townhomes but some HOAs don’t allow homeowners to park these in an HOA neighborhood, so people should check their HOA.
Beautiful video, paired nicely with the inspiring music! I've been watching your channel as we are in the "discovery stage" of downsizing our RV. We made a similar voyage as this one, back in 1991, in our first Class A motorhome, taking in all 5 of the National Parks (and other "highlights" in Utah, Arizona, and Nevada) you referred to. I thought we blasted through it back then, covering it all in about 10 days; leaving and returning to the Black Hills (in western South Dakota). Yes, we were working at the time, and it was all our schedules would allow. And our careers were not something we could do on the road. Being retired is my favorite job (so far)! 35 years of RVing, and we are thinking about getting another Class B. Considering more trips, with less time out on each trip, so another downsize would be logical. Our first Class B was a Leisure Travel in 2002; very different type of traveling from the American Coach diesel pusher we also had at the time, but both great traveling conveyances. Your videos have been helpful as we make considerations. We are just about to wrap up a month long stay in Maggie Valley, NC, with a Yamaha and a Suzuki in the cargo trailer behind the motorhome (yes, we came here from Arizona) for the riding. We'll take a few weeks to work our way back to the desert. Keep the videos coming! We are often asked, "How do you two spend all that time together in a motorhome?" It's what we know. We also worked together for most of our adult working lives. You two show it can be done... and survive! Best wishes! (Captain Jim & the Blonde)
just saw your latest video. we were there in 2021. its cool to see the same places we went to. The campground outside of Roosevelt National Park is where we camped and picked up a hitchhiker, a baby kitten. She rode with us for over 300 miles before we could get her out from under the truck. Safe travels
You two packed a lot into this weeks video! So sad the Albino Bison died at such a young age. I love those little replica towns. We have one here in Dallas,Tx. The Cow...LOLOLO
Come on down to sw OkieLand Dogg and I will take hiking with the Buffalo down here. The Wichita miuntains is the first Buffalo protection area in the USA.
I watch a lot of you tube RV channels. You have great video, but what you do so great is the BACK STORY of the area in such great detail. Thank You !!!!! Has to take a lot of research to produce such detail. THANK YOU !!!!!!!
FYI...next time you're in Asheville, there's a phenomenal restaurant there named Posana. It is a totally gluten free upscale restaurant. ALL of the food is gluten free & absolutely delicious. I noticed you get gluten-free food. I was in heaven because I get so sick with gluten.
Hey Brian and Michelle, always love the videos. Just FYI on Dickey’s BBQ. They started years ago in Dallas and well known for great food when original owners had it. They were bought out and franchised. Food is horrible compared to original. My wife and I loved it back in the day. But we won’t eat at these new ones.
I was bee bopping to the open song lol. The bison museum and frontier town looks like some place I would like to see, guess I’ll add it to my bucket list ( that seems to be getting longer everyday lol). Michelle were you trying to clean that bisons nose?? 😂 when Brian walked under the bison and Michelle went under the cow, I lost it!! 😂😂 $42 for bbq and $45 for one night stay, you guys will have to be doing a bunch of boondocking to make up for it 😂. Stay safe! Safe travels!!
Not well travelled (yet) from Missouri, so it was neat to see your video of Jamestown where we stopped in a few years ago when visiting our son in Bismarck! Itching to get on the road again in 2025 after we sold our Class C last year.
We were watching your new video and I couldn't believe it! We are in Custer South Dakota for the summer and we drove up to Rapid and ate at Pizza Ranch! Not only that, but we wanted to explore a place called Dakota Butcher in Rapid City and after spending an hour in there browsing in awwe, a lady that worked there said you have to try this German pie called a Kuchen! Never heard of it before! Bought one, a caramel apple and it was very good!sort of like a cheesecake, but lighter. The crust reminded me of the flavor of a Chinese fortune cookie! The Kuchen is the crust, filled with various things! Wow! Coincidentally??
Bisons I was not born in America I was born in a small island in Pacific Ocean 😅 there was no TV station until early 60s and most of the show was Americans western shows and some of the show has Indian attacking the wagon 😅 and bisons will be in the backgrounds 😅 the island only has one TV station because of that the TV industry is developed like in America so it shows are most popular in America shows like bewitched,get smart, bonanza, Hawaii five o😅 that show was really popular in the island and one year when my family was flying to America and we have a stopover in Hawaii to refuel the plane my dad and I were in the waiting room waiting and there was a policeman in there my dad asked is he from the five O policemen just smiled and shook his head my dad said macgaritt policeman just laughed and said that is just a TV show of course my dad knows it's a show but he just wants to joke with the police officer with it 😅
My husband and I are from North Idaho and went as far as Bismarck, did not go to Jamestown. Enjoyed Medora and Teddy Roosevelt National Park. Spent a week in Bismarck and went on the keelboat cruise.
Yeah, we notice a lot that we have to pass up, so we have to pick what we have time for. One day when traveling isn’t part of our business and we can move slower with no commitments, we’ll do more stopping and go slower. Sometimes we hit these places on our next time around too, but it’s hard to say when we’ll be back to ND.
We are on day 45 of a 59 day Adventure Caravans Tour of the Canadian Gaspe Peninsula and Atlantic Provinces in our 2018 Tiffin Allegro RED. Today we toured the L’anse aux Meadows historic site in Newfoundland, where the Vikings established a trading base 1000 years ago that lasted 10 years before they abandoned it. It is a Parcs Canada national site. When we were leaving, we spotted a Grech Strada Ion AWD in the parking lot, the first Grech Strada Ion we’ve ever seen in the wild! It had Maine, USA, license plates. Can’t wait to get our Strada Ion next year.
Fun video! Bev was wondering why Sue’s utters weren’t pink. Yeah her brain works that way. 😅 Can’t wait until we get to see the Worlds Largest Ball of Twine!
