Hello Alyssa, I was in Quartzsite the past few days, and I was hoping to run into you because I really wanted to say thank you. Your way of sharing your feelings made me understand that it is time to look for real help as my life at the moment is going down a spiral
P.S.- there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING wrong with you. You are so so wonderful, funny and engaging. I feel like I’m in an army of moms who love you and know that your parents thank God everyday they got such a talented and lovely daughter in this life. Can’t wait to see the next adventures in SRV with you!
It was the "something's wrong with me" for me!🤣🤗💖 Thanks for the chit chat girl, I really be talking back to the video like we real friends 🙋🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
It's no big deal being alone on Valentines Day, been doing it since my divorce 23 years ago. Holidays/Man made holidays are just another day to get through. Although last year on Valentines Day turned out quite different. I went into cardiac arrest and had to be brought back by Paramedics zapping me (shocking experience!) Two weeks later I had triple bypass surgery. I healed quickly and life returned to normal, with some changes of course. When Valentines Day came last week I found plenty to do to keep myself busy and not remember what happened. Do I wish I had someone to share Valentines Day with? Yes, but I'm glad there wasn't anyone on that day a year ago other than the 911 dispatcher did all she could to calm me until I collapsed. If you have someone in your life you love, tell them every day. Okay enough of that. My plan is to be on the road by end of March, if my van is finished, or close enough. Stay safe, keep it between the ditches and may God Bless you all.
These unholidays all about the money... They just tell everybody all you know this little story about how you need to love your girl or vice versa.... I don't need a holiday to tell me when or how to love someone or went to give them gift...
Thank you for sharing that and I’m glad you look at the good that comes out of everything. You are honestly very inspiring. You go, stranger! We are all rooting for u:)
I hope You can have a Q&A soon. It would be fun. Like what do You eat living in your van? What do You work with? What You have for dreams and so. You are one of my favorite youtuber 🥰
The "Huttons Trippin" channel is also fun. They were in Quartzite and now here in Yuma. They mentioned they were going to go up through Kaliphernia and I shouted NIX NIX!! No place for Van living. I recommended going up through Utah.
Dude the chemical spill was crazy!! I was at work and was following the updates on the news being I live in Tucson. Well safe travels . Also I would suggest doing a full mechanical tune up and fluid changes on your van before you hit the road. And maybe invest in a jumper pack and trickle charger if you don’t have one. 💪🏽😊
I am looking forward to seeing your new adventures and experiences while exploring our country. Lots of historical places in each place. I love historical stuff. I love your genuineness style . Stay safe 🙏🏼 🤠💪🏽🛻💨🏕🏞
Valentine's Day and holidays are always hard being a widower. But watching your videos made me feel better. I'll always miss my wife but I know she's in a better place
The ending had me 🤣😂🤣 and I love the fact that I get your sense of humor. You really make me laugh. Glad I found your channel. 😘 and I’ve said it before, but will say it again, your editing is really good, you really have a knack for it, makes your vids very enjoyable to watch, like we are a part of your journey. 🤠 keep doing what you do.👍
Thank you so so so much Alyssa for making my day special with this vlog because I was so bored and I love your vlogs so so much and I wish you reach 50K Subscribers very very soon!💫☺️💕
Love your videos! I’m becoming a nomad myself in a few short days. Extremely excited! And I’m looking forward to meeting cool ass folks like you. 💯👊🏾✌🏾
I love watching your videos, I’ve seen them all and I live vicariously through you. You did inspire me to get out of my comfort zone and I drove to Florida last fall and camped on the beach all by myself and had the best time ever. Now that winter is coming to an end I’m ready to get on the road again!
Never judge you are amazing. I get that boring time. And just doing nothing. Yes have fun we only have this one life to live. Enjoy. Keep,your beautiful smile
Wow it would be just your luck to be in the area for that chemical spill. Spring is always a weird time for traveling in the van. It's easy to find yourself in a spot that is still more winter than summer.
This is such a sweet thing for you to do! You have inspired me to start giving Valentines Day gifts to people I know that do not have a Valentine. I remember many years ago where a friend of mine brought me a birthday cake by foot because they didn't have a car at that time. i will never forget that day. One of my best birthdays. I bet you made their day.
Great video don't worry about it everybody here in Quartzsite is super cool no one here is judging it's actually very cool to meet you you inspire a lot of us
Me and my kid totally ❤️ you 🌟 you are uniquely authentic and true, stay strong and continue being you 🫶 Also like your “summer world tour of America only” 🙌 I’ve been single for the last ten years, valentines solo and then with my kid has made me calmer and enjoy buying flowers for myself, watched Netflix movie Moxie - love in many different guises begins with self love first 🫶 You’re a creative - write, sing, keep creating content - maybe share more of your words and life wisdom, we’d listen and watch for sure 🙏
So glad the spill and shelter in place was isolated to the direct area around the area on I-10 near Kolb where the semi flipped over. It was a bit nerve-wracking at first for sure. We were fine 5 miles north
We will be here no matter what platform you use. Thank you for sharing. Stay warm, safe, happy and healthy. Have fun traveling. From Henrico County Virginia
I love when i get that notification from you. I'm gearing up to leave pretty soon too! idk where you're headed but i plan to spend summer in the northern cali/oregon area! if you're near by i'd love to make you a meal!~ -Fellow astro vaner Mateo
Romantic love is not the 'pinnacle'.... LOVE is all around us and you can share that with anyone you deem worthy...whether you're in a romantic relationship with those people or not! You are so kind to think of others and share your journey the way that you do!
I like how you said that none of us have a valentine and i think that’s so profound and i never really thought about it like that. But that you took the time to make up goodie valentine bags for people and i think that it shows who you are and that there is still civility in the world….. Good video👍🏿😂🔥✋🏿
I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart Alyssa. This question has been haunting me for years. I thought I would never find out the answer. Thanks to you I finally know what Michael Jackson looks like doing laundry huzzah!!
Happy Belated V Day. I’ve been fallowing your channel for a little while now. You seem like a beautiful person and such a positive attitude towards life. It can be a bit lonesome around this time of year but it looks like your surrounded by some awesome people :) and that’s a great! Thing. All the best 😊
Im a 54yr old English Gentleman (very rare breed) and ive just brought my first motorhome so im binge watching all these nomadic videos atm, ibcant wait for summer to get out there with my dog, looks like a fantastic and free lifestyle whilst your young, just hope i can cut it at 54. Stay safe ✌🏼💙✊🇬🇧
One thing someone told me is that relationships come with risk.There are some constants...1) Be that person you expect from someone else. If you need truth ,then do not lie nor deceive you require integrity, then do exactly what you say, and stand behind everything you do. ...2) Actions are the reality ,not words., claims ,and self entitlement, and NO ONE owes you anything....3) Do NOT compromise if something is important to you, and be upfront about your own intentions. For example, if he wants something sexual you do not, then leave him alone and move on. There is no 'you can get it on occasions', because that is being a control freak and dismissive...4) Stay who you are yet IMPROVE all the time, and never expect to go backwards and demand that your spouse accept mediocrity. my last beau had all sorts of so called plans, and every time those milestones were supposed to happen, there was an excuse instead. If you want a hubby/wife, one has to be trained through guidance,instruction, and living one's life in that direction. I am older and at a point of self reflection, where I went wrong, what choices I made, and how that's going to translate moving forward. You are a beauty and Hopefully you will find a man who can teach, listen, guide, and watch you shine..
🙋🏽♂️imma vanilla bean! I look forward to a lifestyle similar to yours but I never really think about the holidays. Maybe because I hardly think about the holidays now. And that's really because I'm around civilization. My mom is from Belgium and my dad is from DC. I happen to live on the Southside of the country and travel costs an arm and a leg so my mother and I never really celebrate. We just say "happy *insert holiday here*" and keep it moving. Though, I can imagine the magic of listening to some chill music with the wind and trees rustling against the windows to be a great way to spend the day, and an even better one to spend it on a holiday where you can focus on loving you. Besides there are better holidays lol
My Pomeranian is my valentines been divorced twice not doing that anymore…….I loved the ending of video you are adorable. I do videos too and all my friends are on RU-vid it’s my only socialization….. Finding love and having a relationship these days seems impossible . No one talks anymore everyone is on their phone. I love your channel you make me feel less alone….. Happy Valentine’s Day
Hi Alyssa. I'm a newbie to your channel and I just had to subscribe to ya on here. You are just too bee-u-ti-ful to not have a special someone in your life and in your travels. I really appreciate and enjoy watching your videos and it takes a very strong young woman to get these on here each and every week. Please don't ever get lonely or depressed 😔. Your amazing and always know that. So with that being said I wanted to end by saying take care of yourself stay safe always and happy travels to you...JP
Alyssa 😃, I’m so looking forward to your trips 😍. You’r so funny and spontaneous, loooove that. Happy happy Valentine’s day 🌹 💝 🎁 🌹, even if it’s already February 21st, happy Valentine’s day to you, everyday 😊
