Hi! I’m Christine! After working for many years in sales and business ownership, I felt major burnout 😵‍💫 I sold my houses, extra cars, and most of my belongings. Now I'm happier than ever having very few material things. I travel living out of my vehicle with my old and blind best friend, Chase the Dog 🐶 We roam the USA looking for adventure, food, and fun! I'm never sure what the future holds. Join the adventure and find out with me! 🤩
In this video, Chase and I drive from Reno, Nevada to Eureka, California to see the Pacific Ocean for the first time!

@mattcombs8778 6 месяцев назад

I think this is your best video yet. I enjoyed the outdoor and beach scenery so much. You were so excited during this trip to the Pacific. It was fun to see your excitement. The music was really great in this video. Especially, "Honey Take My Hand" by Cody Francis. That song pretty much hits exactly what you are doing - getting out of town, driving around, and seeing the world. You talked in this video about "letting go and going with the flow". Is there any other way? When you are in the flow, you are one with the universe, and you being to experience things and go places you would never imagine you could. That is something we all seek, but rarely ever attain. It was so nice to have you share these experiences with us. Keep it up. Stay in the flow.

@always.wondering.wandering 6 месяцев назад

Being from Calif. it was neat viewing you see the Pacific Ocean for the first time and little Chase right there with you getting his paws in the sand. No doubt this will be a cherished memory. May you find comfort in friends and family during this holiday season. Take care and hope to see you back out on the road soon.

What a true love between a dog and his care giver. I have watched your geniune affection for Chase. The way you have protected him, the way you have met his needs with walks in the buggy, backpacks, special treats and just gentle love you gave Chase. Its this kind of beauty in the world that makes it worth it all. Thank ;you for sharing with us the beauty in this relationship. We are blessed to have shared some of Chase and his sweatness with you on your adventures. We send you much love and support. When you are ready we will love continuing to follow your adventures with your little Chase angel along for the ride.

I highly recommend checking out Washington State! In my opinion Washington and Alaska are the two most beautiful states, especially in the summer time. Washington has everything from the ocean beaches, mountains, deserts, and even a rainforest! The best hikes I have ever been on are in Washington State. Highly reccomend to visit at some point in your journey of life! Great video btw love the content you produce!

@belindamceathron304 6 месяцев назад

I 100% agree with you. Washington is true gem.

A blessing to see you on this video, Chase! Your mom took you to so many great locations in our country, so you were blessed! Your mom misses you now, and so do I and so many others! 🥲. Know how it feels to lose your beloved dog, as mine passed as well. Maybe you and my sweet girl, Paddy, have met. 😊 Glad that you two were able to get to the Pacific in CA. 😊 It all looked very picturesque! Take care and stay safe. Sending support and understanding with regard to your loss. 💔

Thank you for showing me/us the Pacific ❤ I claim the west as my home and where my heart belongs because I grew up there (Oregon) and I miss it so much. I tried moving back but it was so expensive that I couldn’t make a go of it 😢 I’m back in the Midwest but I still hope to go back to my “home” someday. I loved your adorable reaction to seeing all your “firsts” and it made me so happy for you. I know exactly how you felt because that’s how I always feel when I’m there. Also, thank you for one of my new favorite songs “Honey Take My Hand”. I love that song and the lyrics are so perfect. I’m so tired of my life being nothing but working to pay bills and survive and I don’t even get to do anything remotely recreational. All I do is work constantly and sleep a few hours a night. I want to be out on the road 😢

@PartyUpLive 6 месяцев назад

I like how you really enjoy the different locations and animals along your trips. A lot of people just go from point A to B and miss so many of the cool things in between. Thank You for sharing and giving me ideas of cool locations to add to my list. R.I.P. Chase. Hope you are doing well this Holiday Season Christine.

You're so lucky to have had Chase, and saying that he was lucky to have you is an understatement. Most dogs will never experience a fraction of what you gave him. What a life! Wishing you comfort and I hope you are getting through this difficult time as best as you can. My thoughts are with you daily ❤❤

Manzanita is the red barked trees and the white feathery-like plant is Pompas Grass which is an invasive species from Brazil that looks like its here to stay for good.....enjoyed it and take care !!

I remember the first time I drove past the Santa Monica Pier. I live in Phoenix,AZ and I saw the beach for the first time when I was 10 and been back a few times. I had driven there to visit a friend and the next day I drove from Santa Monica Pier up to Santa Barbara...I had that same moment of excitement when I started to see the different cliffs and rocks in the ocean that you had...I will never forget it. I plan on driving up the coast in my VAN that I just got next year...vlogging the entire way! Thanks for sharing your experience and bless you and may Chase R.I.P...he's such a cutiepie!
