*My name is Brian. I started living full time in a self built camper van in 2014 in my hometown of San Diego, CA. I hit the road full-time in 2015 to pursue seasonal work and travel around the U.S. I find free camping on public land and enjoy photography, hiking, biking, and kayaking in nature. Join me on my adventures.
Thanks for watching!

What did I miss??? When did Kelly get a box truck? Have I been under a rock (I am a rockhound lapidary guy so most likely)? Always good to see you Brian, you are much better than any travel channel since you relate to real people. Peace out to you, Kelly and of course Hobbs.

There are some places (like the Utah side of Flaming Gorge) with 16-day camping limits. So what happens is locals come up on a weekend, leave their unoccupied trailers in prime camping spots during the work week, then come back for the following weekend. That sucks for the rest of us.

So nice to see people are happy that Kelly has a new truck. However, she lost her Mom recently and is still dealing with that loss. Just give her the time and space she needs for that. I am sure she will address it on her channel when she is ready. The loss of your Mother is devastating and there's no time line on grief. Right now at this time of the year , it's particularly difficult. Just be try to be patient , give her space and respect her privacy. She won't let you down. She needs hugzz and support ...Unsolicited advice from an old granny.❤

Man Brian, you are such an inspiration! I been watching your videos since 2017, I got my first van in 2020, been living in my van for almost 4 years now and every time I need some motivation you are the guy! Sometimes I don’t watch new videos right away so I can binge a couple later, I just love them. I am such a homebody and I also get so much social anxiety, so I spend a lot of my time at home being crafty. We haven’t been able to leave MA because we are afraid of the “what if” on the road, so we been doing vanlife in MA for now (not the best place for van life though). I know what you mean on one of your videos, I also make content and edit them and sometimes even upload them but never make them public because I don’t feel that people would like it or find it interesting or that I didn’t edit or record that much. But finding people that will still push themselves to do it, inspires me to do it too! Thank you for making content, I honestly am happy that I found this channel back then, so helpful. Wish you guys the best of luck, a great year of new memories to come! Take care you guys!

I mostly agree with you on the 14 day rule, but also have no issue with bending the rules as needed (too muddy after a rain, too windy on planned travel day, pet not feeling well, etc..). But yes, definitely shouldn't stay beyond your ability to leave no trace. I tend to find the locals far more abusive of the rules than the nomads. Can't tell you how many times I've seen an area full of unoccupied trailers, aka locals reserving their site for the weekends. And household trash dumping is most certainly locals as well.

Thanks for the sermon Brother Brian...I'm just ribbing you. But your right , it doesn't hurt to remind folks these lands belong to we the people. Take care of them so the people we allow to manage them won't tell us they are closed. Brian I've been subscribed 2 or more yrs .Really appreciate the entertainment. Don't feel pressed. A video once a week , once every 2 weeks it don't matter. You don't owe us anything. You produce content when it comes to you naturally. Having to meet a deadline , steals good quality. Show it to us when it's done. We will be here. Take care of your self and your two friends.Im always watching , when it's ready ! So- long my friend.

Brian, Thank you for reminding people to follow the rules. You're not preaching. You're being a good steward of the land. The rangers have been stepping up patrols and closing more areas off because of people abusing the land.It's sad to see. I was at Quartzsite camping by Dome Rock in January and witnessed it first hand. People cutting down trees to burn, dumping trash, and tanks. One guy told me he didnt move for the whole winter. It was "his spot".

I contacted the Oklahoma Dept of Licensing and had one sent to Camp Verde post office, I stayed out at the Coconino National Forest just north of Camp Verde for a week and a half till the new plate arrived and then headed north to Washington State.
