YES INDEED!! I watched these videos during covid lock down, when everyone was stuck at home. I was so pleased to be able to watch these videos and travel along in the comfort of my home, watching on my big screen TV. What beautiful travel videos!!
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? It’s a guy driving across America in his caravan. He shows many places of interest, some great views, he doesn’t talk too much, he even made his own music for the trip. You thumbs down people should get a life...petty
Been there done that. More times than most. Started when I was 17 and quit school. It must be the nomad in me? Joined the Army and said so long to a life I hated. After my Honorable discharge 5 years later I'd been around the world 4 times, crossed the Pacific by sea and by air multiple times, been in a war, lived in two foreign countries, and crossed the U.S. 6 times, and Canada once, amongst other things. Best experience any young man could hope for. Sure beat the hell out of high school.
I just watched this last night, and I can sincerely say that I learn more about America through these videos than I ever did in school ! I had no idea that a part of Texas is desert. And I saw that Tombstone's main street is named "Allen", which is my maiden-name; so now I want to investigate how it got its name. Thank you my friend for your very fun and informative videos!
@@jenniferlorence185 I discovered him by accident while looking up reviews for the Micro Minnie camper. I love the genuine enthusiasm he has for his trips.
This guy has a gift; to be able to take a solo road trip and make it so engaging that we are drawn into a 3 hour ride for the highlights. Robert reminds me of my father with that appreciation for everything. Great camera work and selection of music for the background. Much talent showcased here. Thanks for being you Robert!
I would love to hear how you started your journey and what all you faced in life it will be an inspiration for people like me who are actually planning or have already completed their projects.
Is this my third or fourth time watching this video in its entirety? Why yes it is. Four years ago I stumbled across this masterpiece and fell in love with Traveling Robert's travel videos. I'm in the mood for some nostalgia tonight, his first RV, who's name I can never remember how to spell, and old Kia that took him back and forth across the US a few times. I'm looking forward to revisiting the " old days"
My Dad was German and lived out half his retired life in a camper like this guy's, describing his own travels in an accent just as thick. He spent the last few years of his life in Ft. Myers at an RV park while working as a baker at the Hyatt. Dad finished his 55 year stay on American soil the same way he started it: Baking and traveling. (actually his first vehicle in this country was a boat, and he took it to work on the Hudson River in NJ each day). He found work wherever he went and pretty much "died with his apron strings on", exactly as he vowed he would. Dad also for a time had a pop-up camper that he pulled around in a Jetta Wagon. Seriously, just being inside of this guy's station wagon and hearing his accent gives me goosebumps. The truth his he is way closer to my age than Dad's,.though..Dad would have just turned 81 and I just turned 50. Dad's been gone for 6 years now...but I still get to hear a nice accent when I travel with my wife. She's from Peru!
All I have to say is WITCHCRAFT!! I was on my way to Walmart and hit the play button. I've been sitting here for 2:16 minutes watching this trip. I guess Walmart has to wait until another day. Best Cross Country Road RV Trip I've ever seen. I can't wait until I get my child and myself something to travel in. Best of 🤞 Luck!
You voice is very addicting. I told myself there is no way I will be watching 3 hours of video but here I am sitting and watching every moment of it. I truly enjoyed it.
Omgoodness! I'm retiring in 7 years and my dream has always been to HIT THE ROAD! Robert, you are living my dream. This is the best road trip that I've ever been on. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME RIDE ALONG. I'm looking forward to checking out your other videos. Keep up the great journeys. You have inspired me to get on the road sooner than retiring! THANK YOU AND YOUR MUSIC IS WONDERFUL AND MOTIVATING.
Angela H Actually I have started planning. My son told me to take my early retirement next year in April and for me not to worry about anything. He told me to go enjoy now so I am. I have unofficially retired. I won’t be going back to work. I’m looking at travel trailers but I’m going to have to look at this tiny house on wheels. Thank for the encouragement and info. I’m looking so forward.
My husband is just discovering RUclips videos and he has been raving about you. He has been singing "Driving to the West..." for days and even paid for the download of the song. I told him that had to be you singing, and he didn't believe me. Well, I just found your CD and bought it as a surprise for our first Valentine's Day together since getting married. I can't wait to give it to him! We both love your videos and make it our go-to for 'date night' entertainment! LOL Keep on traveling, and making music!
Been getting 😔 depression from missing all my traveling but I came across this video by accident and I can travel at my very own home laying in my bed but watching this brilliant calming video. Love the introduction and Story plot.
EXACTLY why I'm watching these videos! Just had it on autoplay, touring the country from my quarantine cave. These walls are getting tighter! This was a wonderful break.
Can't believe I've watched the entire 3.5 hours video in one go. Must have been a good adventure travelling with your RV. Best wishes from Islamabad, PAKISTAN 🇵🇰
damn i thought 3 hours was a looong video, until i started it. i enjoyed every minute of it, drone shots were amazing! the trailer cam was amazing, the Kia was amazing, mini cooking show was amazing, you are now my Top 1 favorite amongst any van life youtubers.
I'm Japanese and I've never been to America, but I feel like I'm driving in America by watching your video. I am also learning English.Please, traveled careful also to the body from now on.Kick ass !!!
That's great. I like the fact you're learning English instead on insisting we learn yours. You're the immigrants that we like having join us. Some come to US with one shirt and five dollar bill and don't want to change either one. That's a true story!!
@@kenduyhien9548 Sure hope so. Our educational system, I think, has doomed up for years to come. I have teenage and younger grandchildren. I look at them and wonder how things will be for them in their future
I'm amazed at how many people I run into who aren't aware nor have considered going on a roadtrip. I on the other can't comprehend staying home bored, I've taken many short road trips as well. There is so much to see.
Got done watching your road trip from Tampa to California and I was absolutely enjoying every second of your video. I saw it was 3 hours long and thought to myself, there's no way I'm watching this all and guess what? I did. You have a way of talking and presenting your videos that makes it a very engaging and enjoyable experience. It's like I'm taking the trip and doing it also. Thanks a great adventure.
I’m really glad that I found your channel, I used to drive all over the country for work. I was on the road 40 weeks out of the year. Now I am in a different chapter of my life and I miss those rest area sunrises. In time, I will buy an RV and get back on the road.
As I was making my cafe' "tinto" you were giving some context , history of the destination.Had to chuckle for a moment, because I could almost hear my late Dad's voice ,as he would do the very same thing when we traveled as a family.When he retired invited me to accompany my parents to Spain and Morocco .Wished that had taken him up on it now o,f course.And my late Mom sure wished that I had gone-if only to give her a break -cos my Dad was up before the rooster & always ready for a new destination, the people ALL the history that goes with it.
So glade you took the time to film Salvation Mountain in Slab City. The fact that it was not destroyed with graffiti is a testament to the dignity of mankind given by his Creator. Much respect and awe for that man’s work of his hands to glorify his God ❤️ Thank you so much Robert. This is actually my second time watching this trip. I love your attention to detail 👍🇺🇸
this is by far the best road trip ive ever taken....felt like i was riding along with him on a mission to get to cali...and the drone work was spot on..hope he does more road trips.....
Great video! 25 years ago, I also did a solo trip from South Florida(Ft. Lauderdale) to West Texas(San Angelo). It was an amazing trip! I also took I-75 and then I-10, so seeing your video brought back some great memories! Thank you for this amazing video!
I love this video so much, I’ve been planning to move to California, San Jose when Im older. This video showed me what its gonna be like moving from florida to california. I have less than 4 years until im able to go, I have a growing playlist with multiple songs to play driving all the way down there. Thank you Robert for this video, I will always cherish this.
Bravo, Traveling Robert! Time well spent. I'm a video professional, and you have taught me volumes on story telling, making visuals interesting, editing, the power of great soundtrack, etc. It was like a Master Class for me! You make it look so easy, but I know better - the hours of work and decision making were probably as big an effort as the driving, if not more so. Thank you for pulling it all together and making it work like it was a breeze!
Well it’s official, “Free in my RV” is now the only song I can sing, whistle & hum to, lol. My coworkers might rip out my larynx, but that’s ok!🤣. We watch your videos in the morning on the couch with our coffee & talk about how we will do the RV thing when we retire, lol. Great videos Robert!!!. Come to Cape Cod & visit us!!!❤️
Dear Robert, I am so very pleased to have stumbled upon your amazing piece of work. I spent time in the last three evenings after my wife went to bed and savored this fantastic trip with you. You have a special way of taking all of us along to not only enjoy the drive but to experience your personal touch and artistry as well as your wonderful musicianship! I can't wait to check out more of your entertaining videos. Thank you sir. You are a rock star!!! (And those sunsets were spectacular!)
The dry, truthful dismissal of all the boring, inauthentic nonsense that so often confronts travelers is delightful, and a big part, for me, of what makes Robert's videos so fresh and enjoyable. Keep it up, and see you on the road.
I Love Your Show! Thank You for Sharing All Your Beautiful 💕😘 Travels, & Experiences. They give Me Great, excited joy, considering I haven't traveled since I was like 21 & am 64. I'm Extremely Happy!! You have showed Me parts of Our Country I Will NVR get to see, nor Explore!!!! I B Praying for Your Safety too! So Much is Happening in the World! Thank You! Love U!
I have been traveling the world together with my partner for over ten years now and one of the things we love the most is the freedom that travel and this lifestyle gives us. So your video brings us back some adventure, excitement,things that we lost the last year and we definitely need....... Thanks for sharing,keep going my friend!!!!!
Love it. You need a travelling companion though. I enjoy that dynamic on other RV travel VLOGs. Or you could meet-up with some other travellers on your journeys
Driving to the west I’m driving through New Mexico, Arizona Even California I’m gonna Gonna get my kicks on 66 The mountains and the desert are my fix Driving to the west Into the sunset 🌅 is where I wanna beeee
This was probably the *SHORTEST & MOST ENJOYABLE* 3h35m that I ever watched on YT. I was mesmerized from start to finish! Thank you Robert, to watch the USA from your POV is just *ABSOLUTELY spectacular* !!!
ROBERT! this is gold!! I can’t believe I’m just now finding your channel! I’ve watched many of your videos and movies and honestly you inspire me to get out and see our country 🇺🇸 Love from Washington 👍🏼🌈
Aloha from Hawaii! I only recently discovered your traveling videos! They are top quality and the information on places are so informative! I wish I was young enough to get on the road and just drive!!! I hope you get to visit the civil war battle sites. They would be so interesting! Thank you for showing how great our country is, especially the back roads and interesting stops in small towns. I am learning about the RV life and adventure through you!!! Thank you so very much!!! I am still looking at some older videos. Aloha from the 50th State!!! Sita
Took me 3 days to watch this.... thank you for sharing! I drove from mississpi to new Mexico and i thought new mexico views were amazing until i drove over to Arizona. I'll take a moment and thank God for the views 🙌🏿
One of the best you tubers ever ! Particularly like Prada in nada 😂 big nose Kate's saloon , the urinal in the gents WC is just a bathtub filled with ice !
My first time ever watching you! was wishing I was with you in person. What an awesome trip you took us on. It has been so long since I came through there and enjoyed it so much! Thanks for taking me.
I never watch long videos like this. Your story is very impressive for me. I can watch until I fall asleep. It make me dream about my road trip like your trip. Someday I will make it. ❤️
Robert, such a heart video. After watching , felt like I traveled with you and visited all those places. ... Driving to the west into the sunset. This song really grew on me.
I'm not entirely sure how I stumbled upon this, I'm not an RVer or even watched anything particularly related but... I enjoyed every minute of it. I'll likely never be in a position to travel the US like this but this video has given a great taste of what it would be like. Some truly beautiful places and your narrative is spot on. Thank you for producing this. I very much look forward to watching all your past and future videos. Much love from the UK. 👍 PS. I've had that 'Driving to the West' song in my head all day at work. Catchy tune. 😄👍
Ditto from the other side of the pond. I'd love to visit Europe, especially the UK, but sadly the odds are against it. The UK looks like an amazing place to visit, including the quirky Brits! 😊 ❤ from the U.S.! 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Driving to the west...in my RV; Driving to the west... Extremely catchy tune.. yes, it has ground it's way into my synapses!!! It won't go awaaaay!!😂😉😎😖
How can you not be in a position to do something like this? Everybody has hard things in life but unless you just can't drive, have medical issues, or some other unknown I don't see why not. State parks are 20-40$ a night and dispersed campsites are free, heck walmart or cracker barrel park. Use a high gas mileage car so you don't tow. You can do a month trip for less than a grand that way. I am going to do 24 days with a family of 6 for right around 1G minus gas "8 dispersed sites" 8 federal sites 10-20$, and cali just went up to 40$ on most of their sites :( so 320 for cali camping alone.. from 25 to 35 then an extra "fee%" then having to pay park fees... cali will be 700 of it and 5,500ish miles soon. Gas We 975$@3.89x13 tanks. Just say 1G with an oil change before and after :). You could cut that 2 G in half if you split it with somebody, then by 1/4 if you split it 4 ways...
I love the trip to the west coast. Never travelled the southern route but I drove I-40 from NC to LA pulling a horse trailer. That was an adventure in itself for sure!
Watched the entire show in the wee hours during this coronavirus pandemic. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire trip. I did it twice from DC to LA. Thank you.
Got done watching your road trip from Tampa to California and absolutely enjoying every second of your video. I saw it was great to know about how to go in an RV that far and a great engaging experience to know how all of it worked out.
Wow a true professional! So relaxing and a joy to watch your journey with you. I watched this from start to finish, which I have never done before with this sorta thing. You have a great humbling and down to earth nature about you that is so charming, warming & relaxing! What a breath of fresh air you are. Great footage with a nice balance of information when needed. Keep up your amazing work!! 🙌👌👍 You now have a new fan and subscriber!!
I have discovered your channel and sub'd a few days ago. I love travelling from my armchair mostly and I feel like I'm actually travelling when I watch your amazing videos. I have a fifth wheel on some land in Florida, so I always get itchy to get there 2-3 times a year for 1-2 months at a time. I'm from Florida, grew up in the panhandle, but I have learned so much about the state just watching your videos. Things I never knew. The Destin video, took me home again, grew up north of there and visited the Destin/Ft. Walton/Panama City areas so many times..now I'm homesick, again, lol.Oh and of course your voice is so soothing with a touch of humor. One cannot help but smile when listening to you. Very pleasant. I also discovered your intro song is all yours and you are singing it. I'm a roadtrip singer, but you are a real singer...singing voice is top-knotch.Ok, now you are travelling across my old home areas in this video also. Thanks for sharing your talents, awesome videography!
I can't believe I stayed to watch till the end of this 3 1/2 hrs video. But I got hooked by the quality of your production, and your unique narrative delivery. Is that you singing too ? Thank you for introducing me to soo many places I never knew. I am going to re-watch all 3 1/2 hours again, but this time, I have my notebook beside me, and I am going to jot down the places. And btw, thank you for posting all your equipment, and the links to them.
I just discovered this channel, better late than never! I made the 1-10 journey five times round trip from Key West to Santa Monica (later Beverly Hills when my friend moved) to visit my childhood buddy. I hate to fly. He would fly to see me in KW where I lived for 20 years and I would drive out west to visit him. Twice I made the drive with my blind, diabetic dog. She was the best travel buddy. Sadly she passed away after 17 years and sadly so did my dear friend who was also diabetic. He was only 48. Anyway, Texas is a looong state. So is FL when you drive up and down the east coast which I have done many times as well. The longest stretches are San Antonio to El Paso and Jacksonville to Key West. Texas smells like BBQ and the gas is cheap. I've heard gunshots in both states while stopping for rest or fuel but never in any other state. Once I drove for what seemed like forever through TX and the only other living thing I saw on the ground was a coyote. I love to drive, it's great to not be in a hurry and enjoy the journey. You have an awesome RV, I'm so jealous! I stayed in hotels, wish I had an RV like yours. My favorite hotel is in Tucson, AZ. I broke down on my way from CA to FL on 1-10 just off the exit to the El Conquistador where I stayed with my dog for 3 days while my car was being fixed. Great cabins with fireplaces (dog friendly) and orange trees outside the door with big juicy oranges. Your video is bringing back memories of all my cross country adventures. Maybe we passed each other. Have fun and Happy Trails!
Thank you Robert....from a cold and damp UK in January.....to a bright and sunny US desert....I'm definitely living vicariously through you right now! Loved every minute of the whole 3 hours!! Happy travels xxx
Nearly 5 years later this video is still legendary!
He’s amazing!
Was thinking that same thing 😊
YES INDEED!! I watched these videos during covid lock down, when everyone was stuck at home. I was so pleased to be able to watch these videos and travel along in the comfort of my home, watching on my big screen TV. What beautiful travel videos!!
This man must be protected at all costs. He's too wholesome.
I think Robert appreciates America more than people who were born here
Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? It’s a guy driving across America in his caravan. He shows many places of interest, some great views, he doesn’t talk too much, he even made his own music for the trip. You thumbs down people should get a life...petty
Because people(not all) are moronic idiots. You can’t fix misery.
6 years later and still going. Who's watching in October 2024?
Me!
Been there done that. More times than most. Started when I was 17 and quit school. It must be the nomad in me? Joined the Army and said so long to a life I hated. After my Honorable discharge 5 years later I'd been around the world 4 times, crossed the Pacific by sea and by air multiple times, been in a war, lived in two foreign countries, and crossed the U.S. 6 times, and Canada once, amongst other things.

This guy is a RUclips gem. I love his accent, humor, comments, and the fact that he made a movie out of his trip out West. Lol I love this dude!
Yeah, I like his videos too, but He already has a Fan based, I discovered him Recently.
More, like Discovered Me, first. LOL.
Me.too!!
@@jenniferlorence185 I discovered him by accident while looking up reviews for the Micro Minnie camper. I love the genuine enthusiasm he has for his trips.
He's tio Cubano.... or uncle Cuban....
Me: “I’ll watch a little bit, but I’m not sitting through all 3 and half hours of it.”
....and three and half hours later, here I still am.
This guy has a gift; to be able to take a solo road trip and make it so engaging that we are drawn into a 3 hour ride for the highlights.

Just discovered Traveling Robert. His videos are absolute perfection: video quality, audio, content. Can't stop watching them. The best of the genre.
Agree
With bad music the entire trip
@@barbarabarker8256 I have to disagree
Yes I just started watching recently too! Love the videos!

Love the 3 hours , 4 , or 5. Keeps me company while I see things I'd never get to see ever .
I didn't notice this was 3 hours long until I read this comment
I mean, I feel I'm seeing so much of America I would ever been able to do in person. Much appreciation from Kenya |🇰🇪
I very much enjoyed your ‘Driven to the West’ adventure and song. I now need to find your adventure back to the East.
Given that I have watched the whole 3:35 hours, I declare this video gripping!

His videos are so entertaining makes me wanna hit the road
This video goes to show you how amazing America's landscape is. She is beautiful! Thank you for making Rob. I really enjoyed this video.
I don’t know how I ended up watching this, but glad I did. Felt like I was there😁
Every time I watch your videos, I feel like I am on vacation. Thanks so much mon amie !!!
Me too!!! So great!!
@@scruffy281 ME TOO
You and me both
Me too, me too . . . 😇
😁 count me in also!
Still enjoy watching the older videos from time to time
I love this video so much, I’ve been planning to move to California, San Jose when Im older. This video showed me what its gonna be like moving from florida to california. I have less than 4 years until im able to go, I have a growing playlist with multiple songs to play driving all the way down there. Thank you Robert for this video, I will always cherish this.
Bravo, Traveling Robert! Time well spent. I'm a video professional, and you have taught me volumes on story telling, making visuals interesting, editing, the power of great soundtrack, etc. It was like a Master Class for me! You make it look so easy, but I know better - the hours of work and decision making were probably as big an effort as the driving, if not more so. Thank you for pulling it all together and making it work like it was a breeze!
Well it’s official, “Free in my RV” is now the only song I can sing, whistle & hum to, lol. My coworkers might rip out my larynx, but that’s ok!🤣. We watch your videos in the morning on the couch with our coffee & talk about how we will do the RV thing when we retire, lol. Great videos Robert!!!. Come to Cape Cod & visit us!!!❤️
Dear Robert, I am so very pleased to have stumbled upon your amazing piece of work. I spent time in the last three evenings after my wife went to bed and savored this fantastic trip with you. You have a special way of taking all of us along to not only enjoy the drive but to experience your personal touch and artistry as well as your wonderful musicianship! I can't wait to check out more of your entertaining videos. Thank you sir. You are a rock star!!! (And those sunsets were spectacular!)
My dad and I absolutely love watching your traveling videos during quarantine it’s a great bonding experience 😂
the sky in Texas at night is amazing!! beautiful
The dry, truthful dismissal of all the boring, inauthentic nonsense that so often confronts travelers is delightful, and a big part, for me, of what makes Robert's videos so fresh and enjoyable. Keep it up, and see you on the road.
Thank you!
Amen to that!!! No fake hype here, just pure fun!!❤️
You remind to appreciate and enjoy each day and all the Heaven on Earth that is around us!!
I Love Your Show! Thank You for Sharing All Your Beautiful 💕😘 Travels, & Experiences. They give Me Great, excited joy, considering I haven't traveled since I was like 21 & am 64. I'm Extremely Happy!! You have showed Me parts of Our Country I Will NVR get to see, nor Explore!!!! I B Praying for Your Safety too! So Much is Happening in the World! Thank You! Love U!
Love to watch these videos on Sundays while having my adult beverage.
I have been traveling the world together with my partner for over ten years now and one of the things we love the most is the freedom that travel and this lifestyle gives us.
So your video brings us back some adventure, excitement,things that we lost the last year and we definitely need.......
Thanks for sharing,keep going my friend!!!!!
Love it. You need a travelling companion though. I enjoy that dynamic on other RV travel VLOGs. Or you could meet-up with some other travellers on your journeys

This was probably the *SHORTEST & MOST ENJOYABLE* 3h35m that I ever watched on YT. I was mesmerized from start to finish! Thank you Robert, to watch the USA from your POV is just *ABSOLUTELY spectacular* !!!
I agree.
Thank you for the wonderful journey.
You should come up north...Vermont, New Hampshire is absolutely beautiful.
ROBERT! this is gold!! I can’t believe I’m just now finding your channel! I’ve watched many of your videos and movies and honestly you inspire me to get out and see our country 🇺🇸
Love from Washington 👍🏼🌈
better late than never
Aloha from Hawaii!
I only recently discovered your traveling videos! They are top quality and the information on places are so informative! I wish I was young enough to get on the road and just drive!!! I hope you get to visit the civil war battle sites. They would be so interesting! Thank you for showing how great our country is, especially the back roads and interesting stops in small towns. I am learning about the RV life and adventure through you!!! Thank you so very much!!! I am still looking at some older videos.
Aloha from the 50th State!!!

Robert is a Really good guy.
And he can cook and fix stuff.
Drive, drink India pale ail and explore.
From sea to shining sea. Thank you Robert. Thank you. 👍
What a trip - long drive….
I am from Los Angeles - Love to see the East…..
I love your music and you do such a great job commenting on each state, town and the landscape. Thank you❤️‼️
Took me 3 days to watch this.... thank you for sharing! I drove from mississpi to new Mexico and i thought new mexico views were amazing until i drove over to Arizona. I'll take a moment and thank God for the views 🙌🏿
One of the best you tubers ever ! Particularly like Prada in nada 😂 big nose Kate's saloon , the urinal in the gents WC is just a bathtub filled with ice !
You've created an earworm with your Riding in my RV song. LOL I can't get it out of my head! I really enjoy your videos.
My first time ever watching you! was wishing I was with you in person. What an awesome trip you took us on. It has been so long since I came through there and enjoyed it so much! Thanks for taking me.
I watched your video for two days. And all I can say is it was worth it.
I never watch long videos like this. Your story is very impressive for me. I can watch until I fall asleep. It make me dream about my road trip like your trip. Someday I will make it. ❤️
Robert, such a heart video. After watching , felt like I traveled with you and visited all those places. ... Driving to the west into the sunset. This song really grew on me.
Thank you so much Mr. Robert for this LONG video....I enjoyed it during my coffee time for three straight days...... Good luck.
Mr. Robert thank you for this amzing and fun trip, i really enjoyed watching it.
anybody else recently discover Robert's channel and binge watch it for two days straight?? anybody? somebody... lol
Started watching thinking I'll never watch all this. But I didn't want it too end. Brilliant stuff. . . Thank you
Who doesn't like the Traveling Robert uploads? And now, he has an epic video of epic length!
He jumps all over the place. He did this trip about months ago and just reposting other videos he didn't before.
I'm taking a drive from Maryland to West Palm Florida this Spring. First time I'll be doing such a long drive!!
I'm not entirely sure how I stumbled upon this, I'm not an RVer or even watched anything particularly related but... I enjoyed every minute of it. I'll likely never be in a position to travel the US like this but this video has given a great taste of what it would be like. Some truly beautiful places and your narrative is spot on. Thank you for producing this. I very much look forward to watching all your past and future videos. Much love from the UK. 👍
PS. I've had that 'Driving to the West' song in my head all day at work. Catchy tune. 😄👍
Ditto from the other side of the pond. I'd love to visit Europe, especially the UK, but sadly the odds are against it. The UK looks like an amazing place to visit, including the quirky Brits! 😊
❤ from the U.S.! 🇺🇸🇬🇧
Driving to the west...in my RV; Driving to the west...
Extremely catchy tune.. yes, it has ground it's way into my synapses!!! It won't go awaaaay!!😂😉😎😖
@@JeffCKeane
I think he wrote and sang the song himself.
How can you not be in a position to do something like this? Everybody has hard things in life but unless you just can't drive, have medical issues, or some other unknown I don't see why not. State parks are 20-40$ a night and dispersed campsites are free, heck walmart or cracker barrel park. Use a high gas mileage car so you don't tow. You can do a month trip for less than a grand that way. I am going to do 24 days with a family of 6 for right around 1G minus gas "8 dispersed sites" 8 federal sites 10-20$, and cali just went up to 40$ on most of their sites :( so 320 for cali camping alone.. from 25 to 35 then an extra "fee%" then having to pay park fees... cali will be 700 of it and 5,500ish miles soon. Gas We 975$@3.89x13 tanks. Just say 1G with an oil change before and after :). You could cut that 2 G in half if you split it with somebody, then by 1/4 if you split it 4 ways...
So do we
🎶 driving to the west. Into the sunset🎵 that song has been stuck in my head for 3 days now!😂
This man is living the American dream.
I love the trip to the west coast. Never travelled the southern route but I drove I-40 from NC to LA pulling a horse trailer. That was an adventure in itself for sure!
Watched the entire show in the wee hours during this coronavirus pandemic. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire trip. I did it twice from DC to LA. Thank you.
“Driving to the West”
Is my Jam!
And I CAN’T stop singing it.
Excellent production. Note the rare "turquoise glow" at the last glimpse of the sun as it sets in the Pacific.
Bravo Roberto!
Got done watching your road trip from Tampa to California and absolutely enjoying every second of your video. I saw it was great to know about how to go in an RV that far and a great engaging experience to know how all of it worked out.
This is one of my favourite videos on RUclips. Cheers mate. 🇬🇧
Wow a true professional! So relaxing and a joy to watch your journey with you. I watched this from start to finish, which I have never done before with this sorta thing. You have a great humbling and down to earth nature about you that is so charming, warming & relaxing! What a breath of fresh air you are. Great footage with a nice balance of information when needed. Keep up your amazing work!! 🙌👌👍 You now have a new fan and subscriber!!
Thank you!
Ya it was nice
I have discovered your channel and sub'd a few days ago. I love travelling from my armchair mostly and I feel like I'm actually travelling when I watch your amazing videos. I have a fifth wheel on some land in Florida, so I always get itchy to get there 2-3 times a year for 1-2 months at a time. I'm from Florida, grew up in the panhandle, but I have learned so much about the state just watching your videos. Things I never knew. The Destin video, took me home again, grew up north of there and visited the Destin/Ft. Walton/Panama City areas so many times..now I'm homesick, again, lol.Oh and of course your voice is so soothing with a touch of humor. One cannot help but smile when listening to you. Very pleasant. I also discovered your intro song is all yours and you are singing it. I'm a roadtrip singer, but you are a real singer...singing voice is top-knotch.Ok, now you are travelling across my old home areas in this video also. Thanks for sharing your talents, awesome videography!
Thank you so much!
Watching this 11/2023 and love it!!! Driving to the West!!!!
I can't believe I stayed to watch till the end of this 3 1/2 hrs video. But I got hooked by the quality of your production, and your unique narrative delivery. Is that you singing too ? Thank you for introducing me to soo many places I never knew. I am going to re-watch all 3 1/2 hours again, but this time, I have my notebook beside me, and I am going to jot down the places. And btw, thank you for posting all your equipment, and the links to them.
"Prada in the middle of nada" hahahahahhaha
Singing Driving to the west all day.... great video!
I just discovered this channel, better late than never! I made the 1-10 journey five times round trip from Key West to Santa Monica (later Beverly Hills when my friend moved) to visit my childhood buddy. I hate to fly. He would fly to see me in KW where I lived for 20 years and I would drive out west to visit him. Twice I made the drive with my blind, diabetic dog. She was the best travel buddy. Sadly she passed away after 17 years and sadly so did my dear friend who was also diabetic. He was only 48. Anyway, Texas is a looong state. So is FL when you drive up and down the east coast which I have done many times as well. The longest stretches are San Antonio to El Paso and Jacksonville to Key West. Texas smells like BBQ and the gas is cheap. I've heard gunshots in both states while stopping for rest or fuel but never in any other state. Once I drove for what seemed like forever through TX and the only other living thing I saw on the ground was a coyote. I love to drive, it's great to not be in a hurry and enjoy the journey. You have an awesome RV, I'm so jealous! I stayed in hotels, wish I had an RV like yours. My favorite hotel is in Tucson, AZ. I broke down on my way from CA to FL on 1-10 just off the exit to the El Conquistador where I stayed with my dog for 3 days while my car was being fixed. Great cabins with fireplaces (dog friendly) and orange trees outside the door with big juicy oranges. Your video is bringing back memories of all my cross country adventures. Maybe we passed each other. Have fun and Happy Trails!
Sad to hear about your friend, my condolences. Seems you have done a lot of roadtrips, which is something to cherish.
@@davidd5636 Thank you, that's very kind.
Thank you Robert....from a cold and damp UK in January.....to a bright and sunny US desert....I'm definitely living vicariously through you right now! Loved every minute of the whole 3 hours!! Happy travels xxx
Your truly said
I am glad you made it to the west coast and got your feet wet. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Awesome video. Reminds me of when I was a kid on road trips with my family. This is a beautiful country. Great job Robert!
