Newly Nomads (2021) - Full Documentary | Wild Hixsons | Full-time RV Travel Documentary 

As fellow full timers - yes we watched to the end. Your enthusiasm and skill in producing this video made it very captivating throughout - well done. It’s difficult to show and document the full time RVing lifestyle because it’s very hard to capture the experience but you did a great job in this video. Thank you

What a fantastic movie. I literally chuckled when he said, “Think anybody watched it till now”. But, the completely intimate moment you shared, just after that, was so powerful. Thank you for bringing us along.

When this video popped up I thought ok another couple thinking they are experts in camper. But I must say this grabbed my attention from the get go and took me on an adventure the whole way. Very well done.

I didn't think I would watch more than a few minutes, but y'all kept me to the end, good job 👍😊

Wonderful !! Thank you for taking us along. It was nice to watch as both of you seem so down-to-earth, pleasant, low-key, and very charming.

WOW FANTASTIC I loved your wonderful journey!!! I have been stuck in my motorhome at my son’s home in Oregon this last year. After retirement from Hawaii. He lives in the forest. First Covid then then fires (1/2 mile from home ) then ice storm that trapped us because of hundreds of downed trees. I watched your video straight though. Thank You so much ❤️

I really enjoyed watching this documentary style video! Great camera work, great montage and very well narrated. But what really brought a smile to my face was the love for each other and the world. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and I can’t wait to see more. Greetings from Belgium!

This is a lot of work! More accessories, more toys, more gadgets, more maintenance, more things will breakdown, slide-out (more breakdown/maintenance), long trailer (limited accessibility), pets (more expenses, more effort/time). Things keep get piling on...more power to you. I can't do it. What is your fuel cost per month on average?

It's not what you expected, it's growing through what you didn't expect! Yes, till the end. Beautifully done, ahhhhhh. I got up and walked around my trailer in my driveway. First time in a very long time wishing I had a travel partner. Thanks for inspiration. Be blessed!!🤗👍🌻❣

I have to agree with all the comments I have read thus far. I’ve been watching couples videos about RV’n and before this video I would have said that if you’ve seen one you’ve seen them all but there is something refreshing and dare I say special about this video. I can go on and on about why I feel this video is special and well worth the time to watch it in its entirety but that would include too many spoilers so I would just say that you can take my advice, sit back and relax, and you can thank me later. Thanks again to the Wild Hixsons for this great video. I can’t wait to watch many more from you guys.

Can't wait for their next adventures documentary! You guys are truly talented! And are such inspiring people to many like me!

I have been a van lifer for a year and a half now and wish I had started this years ago after retiring from the military. It has been fun, educational and the freedom to travel whenever and wherever has been so gratifying. I can never move back into a bricks and mortar setting and the thought of having a mortgage again. Now I am ready to upgrade into a Class B RV. I thoroughly enjoyed your vlog...almost seemed like a movie, actually. I fell in love with Mose. I would love to have a couple of travel companions. Anyway, awesome production. Looking forward to your future travels.

Awesome & Inspiring! Over the past year, I have watched hundreds of hours of RV videos. This is among the best! Thank you!

I swear, each generation becomes the young old. Nothing new under the sun! Beautiful couple! God bless!

Ha, so glad to meet you two! I watched the entire hour + video and actually got choked up for you trading off to a new trailer. So to me, you two are on the right path of your life journey and can emote the energies through your craft. I LOVE it! Love your essence you share and am going to enjoy the following. I plan to get on the road during retirement in about four years. So I do all the things of watching and learning through those before me over the past four years. :D Thanks, guys! Enjoy your life, you have so much of it ahead of you. As one of the guys below said, "I couldn't stop smiling watching the documentary"... ha, me too!

An excellent video. It must have been hard leaving your families behind as you set out on your journey in your RV, and then Covid stopping you seeing your family when you had planned to. How wonderful that East West have helped you with the next stage in your journey. I look forward to following your further experiences. Best wishes from a disabled campervan owner in bonnie Scotland who always wanted to explore the USA and Canada in an RV.

Hello. My wife and I watched your documentary from start to finish. We found it very well done, informative, with honest insights and great photo shoots. We are older now, and unable to live this type of lifestyle due to health, but we found ourselves living past life through your video for at least this one hour. Your video skills and comfort speaking to the camera are highly refined. As I've aged, I realize I have many regrets of opportunities passed by. I love your minimalist approach and your love of nature. Your love for each other is clearly evident as well, and heart warming. Keep following your dreams and make everyday count. Do not grow old and end up with regrets. P.S. I think you and Tyler would love the area around Asheville North Carolina. Give it a try.. Blessings and safe travels from Michigan.

Just sat and watched. Was actually looking for South Dakota rv parks. Stumbled upon this video about your fulltime rving… watched it from my rv… while fulltiming. Grats to y’all. Love the content.

watched to the end and loved it! I car camp for weeks at a time and then come home feeling so much happier then when I left and I plan to keep being a part time nomad...

My wife and I enjoyed the video. Even though I don't love traveling--but she does--I want to fulfill her dream by taking her on the road. As I'm approaching retirement, I am watching these videos to explore the options. Your video is very informative and we watched it to the end. Grace and Peace!

i've been on the road full time for 4 years, i've never stayed in an rv park, but i have a senior pass for the national parks. the pass gives me free entrance to the parks and half price camping in most parks. what i liked most about your story was the discovery of boon docking and living with less and the joys of each. hint: you know you're into the essence of "boon docking" when you grab your camera and forget your phone when going for a hike or exploring the new area. safe travels :)

Probably the best nomad video I have seen. I'm a grandma armchair traveller. Scoring is amazing, seamless editing! Loved it.

Loved this. Wonderfully compiled and edited, was really a joy to watch. From beginning to the next beginning it was inspiring to watch you guys enter into and evolve throughout your journey to date. Thank you so much for working so hard to share it with me. I am looking forward to following your adventures in life that you continue to share and wish you all the best of everything!

Minute 1: Skeptical about length... Minute 77: This is one of the most beautiful documentary films I've seen all year. Demands sequel.

I couldn’t stop smiling watching the documentary, such a brilliant adventure, thank you for sharing it with us

I watched the whole video alongside my wife. You guys deserve a million views

You two are inspiring! I have never traveled in an RV. I have always been a tent traveler but I love what you have shared here. There are always other ways to live and explore. Think outside the box! Cheers !

I watched your video. I am so happy you guys are sharing your travels. You seem so down to earth, when I am watching I get caught up in the moment and it feels as though I there too. Thank you so much. Congratulations on your marriage. You look so happy.

Wanted to say. Hey, a couple that planned...yall got this and Happy for you. Congrats on getting married

I had one free evening to spend and I chose to give this documentary a shot. Here I am, sitting on the couch, sipping on my wine, and watching YOU living the life. It made me reflect.. I even shed a tear or two. Thank you for this beautiful film. Of course we know that you chose not to include the struggles n obstacles for the most part in this video, but I can also see a purpose in it. Just beautiful. I don’t regret spending my evening like this.

The COOLEST couple I’ve ever met 🤩

Very cool story guys 👍❤️😊 enjoyed learning about your RV life. Lots of fun and helpful information. I’m getting ready to hit the road in my new to me Lance TT. Headed west towards Utah Arizona and Colorado. Also want visit the Palm Springs area. You’ve given me lots of cool ideas of how to travel and not rush it. Thanks for sharing and safe travels from Birmingham Alabama 😎

We (Randy and Sylvia) watched all the way to the end, sometimes we backed the video up to see certain places again. Love it!

Watched all the way to the end and loved it. Didn't even realize the time passing. Inspired too..travel, here we come.

Wild Hixsons, WOW! Love this documentary, you two did excellent videos beautifully put together, so impressive and you both are so young, I grew up with 12 brothers and sisters on a huge farm as a young child and my parents was kind of like these people that travel all over. I enjoy this video so much. Thank you, for sharing. Life is one big journey. I am retired now. And on a different journey and it just kind of all hook together from baby to way up in years, but I still do not feel old. I hope you two stay happy in love forever.

Watched the complete video, great job. I am stranded in Colombia Latin America for the last year. Hope the government will get me home soon .I haven't been home to the USA for over 2 years. Love your video keep making them.

LOVE your video and life together! You remind me of me & my hubby but a lot younger -- looking forward to meeting you out on the road. You are both 'old souls' and embracing life & all that it affords - continue to enjoy!! XO

its so cool you can go on a year long trip and still be friends only needing eachother to make it happen

You guys are charming and very good filmmakers. I look forward to your next adventure.

Dont miss Cloudcroft and Ruidoso NM. El Paso, Tx Desert, three hours later, 9,000 ft. Forest and snow skiing.

Hi from Australia 🇦🇺. You kept me captivated until the end. Great vlog 👍

Wow! My wife and I are amazed, impressed, encouraged, blessed! What a wonderful gift to experience the "better things" rather than the "expected things" or seemingly important things. Yes, we watched all the way to the end. Andrea, excellent work! Tyler, you did a great job in your "supporting" role. Mise, you bring a lot to the the story as well! Keep it up folks! Maybe we will see you once we shed this archaic daily grind! Be well and be blessed!

I have watched so many RV and nomadic type videos over the past several weeks. Even since deciding against the big purchase , I still like watching. For us because it felt like we were just being impulsive because where we are in life. I was very drawn to your story because of the feel, the videography, and the calm nature of it all. You didn't have to scream to keep viewers watching. I get that some feel it wasn't representative of the real side and pitfalls but then that isn't why I was watching. I was interested in the evolution and your development as a new couple on the road. Your passion for living and the beautiful world around you was captivating. I also thought your ability to capture the quiet beauty of each area was also wonderful. Very nicely done. But I really stayed to see the travels of Mose the Wonder Pig. Ya gotta love Mose. Good luck and happy travels

Yes, watched (admiringly) to the end. Yes, tho we could be your parents, you’ve inspired us to go and experience all the miles on the journey. Thank you!

What an amazing documentary! I was riveted from beginning to end. This was as professionally filmed and well-edited as anything you'd see on a major network. I look forward to your next one. Thank you!

Me gustan sus videos, su RV esta hermoso. You are speaking slowly and then understood very well.Thank for these. Enid

came across your video, and i love it very much. I am very happy for you two to have a new RV (even thought your "old" RV was a brand new purchased and only 1 year old). You two are correct. It is not about the RV. It is about how you can live out your life. Cannot wait to see your next chapter.

Born and raised in New Mexico. It was so refreshing to hear you speak so highly of it.

Thanks for an awesome share. You both are so endearing. And your reflections are good food for thought if anyone has lost sight of the simpler joys in all this chaos. To many more wonderful travels and strengthening your connections.

A few things that I really love about you guys--you're both rock climbers, you got a 'bike, and you cook pizza outdoors. Hooyah.

Great video. You guys really did it right. Your rig is gorgeous.Your photography is amazing. I usually hate most of the music in RU-vid videos, but yours was all wonderful. It was a pleasure watching the entire thing. (And I have a pretty short attention span.)

My wife and I spent two decades traveling magic show going from school City to City School to school throughout the country ... I wish we had done it your way combining work with rving would have saved us so much in hotel fees an airline tickets!

Yes, I watched to the end. Absolutely loved the beautiful photography and the relaxed feel of the video. All was beautifully done. I liked the way you engaged with your surroundings everywhere you went. One thing that was unexpected was that when you visited Tyler’s family near the end, there was talk of reconnecting with places, but no mention of reconnecting with people you ... love? Of course you do, but i was looking forward to hearing more about your people connections while you were there, because people are the most important thing, but not much there. Thank you for a wonderful video!!

Congratulations. The quality of the contents of your channel and the topics of discussion are excellent. Your channel will have a great and successful future with lots of happy subscribers and followers. Stay safe and happy traveling.

I love this!! Made me wanna travel more!! Very well done!!

Wow, I really envy you two! I'm 68 years old, you two are doing it when you are still young good for you! Watched the whole video and loved it! Thank You!

We watched all the way through, loved it. Thank you.

One of the few videos on RU-vid which is absolute gold! Great job!

I loved everything about this. You are so talented. Thanks for taking us along with you on these beautiful adventures. Stop and see us the next time you’re traveling through St. Louis! Stay safe.

Flew a Hang Glider from Enchanted rock about 1973. Wife and I retired full time RV over 2 years. But like you we went on our honeymoon 30 years ago in a Brand new Class A motor home. Wish you all the happiness.

I watched it all the way. Thanks for bringing us with you on such a nice journey Andrea and Tyler, I wish you both all the best

Sandra Westley from the UK we haven’t lived on the road like you have but have spent over 40 years holidaying and weekends and weeks, and it gets into your blood you never lose the feeling your ready for the road again. Yes, I watched to the end and enjoyed your travels.

What's missing is the reality of RVing. The downsides, the breakdowns, and the expenses. It's like there was a filter on this whole documentary. Not to mention how dependent you are on the Big Oil industry. Good luck on your journey!

Great documentary! You kept this 65 year old man's attention for the whole video. You are enjoying life and making memories to share with your children and grandchildren. I get to live your nomadic lifestyle vicariously through your video. I hope this is not the last.

Just wanted to say watching from the UK, thanks for sharing this. I have been to the states a few times and think you have an amazing country. Being able to live the way you do is a brilliant opportunity.

I enjoyed the moments between you two the most. I watched every minute, and shared this with friends. I loved your perspective on life and finding joy everywhere it presents itself to you. Your journey and perspective seems very much like mine, even though I’m in technology living in an apartment in New York City. I’m rooting for you guys, and I don’t know why you two aren’t America’s most talked about couple! Don’t forget about us, keep sharing.

They remind me of Max and Lee. Especially the young lady. She really reminds me of Lee. Kind of sad but I'm glad I found this channel.

Excellent presentation! I have watched your video five times, and absolutely love your work!

Absolutely loved every moment of your journey, conversations, the gorgeous scenery, and of course, Mose. Such a good little travel piggy! My husband and I are older, but have visited many of the places you have, with hopes to return West in spring of 2022. We live in the southern Appalachians of north Georgia, but I adore the diversity of the western states and their deserts. We were making our way towards Utah and staying in in Big Bend NP in March 2020 when they announced a Covid closure, so we hightailed it home. I think you’d like it there, too. May you both have many full and happy years together and an abundance of treasured adventures along the way. Maybe we’ll see you on the road someday. Peace~•~

not my cup of tea, just thought it be a couple showing everyone a DIY video along there journey. This was a fresh surprise. I enjoyed this from beginning to end. Great job! If you ever in the Green Bay Wisconsin Area feel free to shoot me an email I love to camp and have many suggestions for unforgettable locations!

This was such an enjoyable video to watch and so heart warming at so many levels. Your love for each other and for your little piggie was very touching. Your journey and experiences along the way made this video very memorable. Thank you for sharing with us.

Good storytelling,choices of music wonderful videos. Thanks

This was captivating, heartwarming, and informative. Thank you so much for creating this content and sharing it. The videography, editing and post production were amazing.

I just watched it, fantastic! I’ve been doing this stuff for 5years, 3rd rv and a new place every time. We live down under. 🇦🇺🙏🏻🍻

Good content, found the music over powering.

Home is where the heart is... me and my wife enjoyed your travel documentary very much. We are in our fifties now and waiting for the day when we can travel like you guys exploring this great country of ours. Stay safe and happy travel.

I watch to the end. You guys are amazing! Thank you for sharing your journey, Once you told me you would do a video on your annual cost for full timing RV living. I would really enjoy seeing some of the basic numbers put together now that you have a year under your belts. Thank you for sharing! Darrel

Really cool! This popped up in RU-vid recommendations, and I went ahead and clicked and watched this SUPER long video straight through from beginning to end! I think I’ve been conditioned to gravitate toward the short videos most RU-vidrs make, but this video, closer to the length of a movie, somehow held my attention. Great job Hixons. And what a fun life!

Yes, we watched all the way through. Loved the video and your story. We are looking to get on the road full time later this year. Very much considering an East to West Tandara 5th wheel. Good luck in your new rig.

This is John, I did watch all of your first year journey. It is nice to see a young couple. Living a healthy and living life style. God bless you two, and happy journeys. Good luck with this

music is way too loud!

Oh, I have been living this life style since 1990. I love it! Will Not stop!!!

Thank you for taking me with you on this wonderful journey. It was so much fun to watch and - of course - so beautifully professionally made. All the best to you from Munich/ Germany

Enjoyed seeing beautiful scenery! He seems not much into her even with ending the video with him professing his love. She seems to be strong, intelligent and sweet....

Nice music! 🎶

I can’t believe I stayed up till 2 in the morning to finish this. Don’t get me wrong I was only going to watch for a few minutes and finish the rest tomorrow lol. I love the video. I just bought a new RV for the first time not knowing anything about RVing and was looking on RU-vid to find some tips on what to do. Then came across your video and thought it was so inspiring. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there!

I'm glad I had my adventures before wifi was so accessible. To be truly lost and free.

I camped only twice in my life,you ve inspired me so much,I loved and watched the over 1 hour video to the end.be blessed furthermore ❤️⚘️

Money doesn't appear to be an issue, not exactly doing it tough...

Incredible and very touching. Loved it! Thank you

No such thing as wealthy nomads, just wealthy slumming in a luxury rv .....

I watched all the way to your film credits! Great documentary of your first year living in your RV. You are a beautiful couple, courageous and adventurous. Keep making beautiful memories. I will love to follow your journey.

Just seeing this, and I have to say as a "been there done that" old skool semi-boomer, y'all revoltingly cute :) I am truly grateful you took the time to share "how weird" you are, because you aren't, and it gives me hope that more younger people will realize that most of the pressures in this life are self imposed expectations that don't need to be lived up to. Cheers and thanks.

I watched all the way to the end. Your video and photography is so beautiful. So glad you enjoyed New Mexico. I live in New Mexico, originally from Florida. I miss the beaches but New Mexico does have that beautiful white sand and amazing sunsets. Watching your documentary allows me to see all the other beautiful places you get to see as well. Anxious to watch more. Thank you for all your beautiful work.

I'm watching this for the second time now, and I just have to stop and say how much of an inspiration you two are. After the first time watching, I had really hoped to share this video with my girlfriend of 6 years in an attempt to show her how this lifestyle could look for us. The second time around, we've broken up, and I'm hoping that I can cobble together some sort of nomadic lifestyle for myself. I have a long ways to go before I can make that a reality for myself. But I can't emphasize enough how much I appreciate this honest, and in-depth review of how you two made this your reality. Andrea, you're immensely cute and expressive and I love seeing your enjoyment throughout, as well as your willingness and ability to do things that some men may find themselves doing alone (prepping the camper for the road, loading the bike, etc). Tyler, I think there's a lot we may have in common, and I enjoy seeing you take your talents and interests to their full potential. Together, I really admire your drive and dedication, and the way it seems you bend your own reality to your combined wants and needs, whether adventurous or professional. Thank you for taking the time to compile, edit, and publish such an inspirational and beautifully produced look into this lifestyle. I wish you both the best in your adventures.

Watched all the way to the end!!! Love your love for life, adventure and each other. Stay cool!!!

Your living my dream life. I unfortunately have no way to support myself while on the road and with too many health issues. I can live through you and that is awesome!

What an absolute pleasure to spend our evening watching your 1st year journey! So Au'some 💫 thanks for taking us along for the journey...cheers from manitoba Canada 🇨🇦

I watched all the way threw. I hope piggy stays strong. We lost ours when it got too cold. It broke our hearts to loose her!!!

Cool video. Answered all my questions from the other vids. Look forward to your other adventures and yes, we made it to the end.
