You have YEARS to work but less years to LIVE.. Go young man LIVE
In this economy?? I’m begging for work right now!
If you feel super lonely, a pup would make a GREAT companion that doesnt take up much more space. This kind of life would be great for a pup
Fuck that only assholes live in cars and have pets
“Idk how long I’ll be doing this for” dude keep posting and this is all you’re going to be doing ! We are all hyped for you as long as we get some cool videos every week you are gonna rolling in the dough ❤️
I’ll tell you what, I’ve never seen your videos or heard of you before. I clicked on the video cuz I saw the regular cab truck. A rare breed. I’m a regular cab guy and always have been. Anyway if you ever roll through southern Wisconsin I’d be honored to fill your hopefully almost empty tank up to full. Reach out to me if you find yourself in the area. Safe travels brother 🙏🏻
Nice thing about being an equipment operator, is that you can pick up work anywhere equipment is being used. I know a lot of guys who travelled and followed work all over Canada and the US over the years. No worries if you run short of money or just want to make some in one place for a while, there's always a place that needs operators.
It's a well earned benefit of being a skilled hard-working person is to have viable work options wherever you may be. ❤
especially if you pick up a first aid ticket too.👍
Congrats man, enjoy the journey.
Breathe. Live. Enjoy. Great plan!
You got this bro. Your on the path to true peace, allowing yourself to find your true path of understanding 😊
Kevin, always been a fan of yours as you seem so level headed. Not sure how quitting a job fits into that description but this is a scenario where you just trust those you believe in. If you have been planning this then good for you. I hope your decision is not built on a dream of creating a RUclips and Patreon empire like so many others have tried. Whatever you do most of us just want the best for you. Use caution but give this dream your best shot! Dave
Congratulations! I love new beginnings. This will be an amazing summer for you. Thanks for sharing.
Goof for you young fellow. Follow your dreams for as long as you can.. All will be well. enjoy your summer and have many adventures.
Congratulations on the beginning of the next chapter of your life young man. More boondocking camping videos are fun to watch. The wife and I are full time in are rv boondocking saves us a lot of money and peace of mind not saying in over crowded rv parks.
A quote that always kept my compass pointing north. “No matter what, you’ll be okay”. Good travels!
Im 56 and would give about anything to do this. Love to travel and visit the gkids. Wow! Can't even imagine
Almost in the same place in life. It's quite a change not having to go in to work every day. Still working to figure out what to do with all the time. I keep stressing about money, but I know I will make it just fine. Cool to see a new person take the same step from a different country haha. Thanks for the vid! Have fun!
Thank you!!!! 😊
Life is scary my guy 💯 you got this 🖤✊🏿
You will fins your way through life. All the best to you!
Congratulations and enjoy the journey.
Happy and safe travels!! 😊
One of my managers told me, "Everything will be okay in the end, and if it's not okay yet, than it's not the End"... Enjoy the journey my friend. Thanks for posting your journey to RUclips, will be following along the way from Edmonton. If there's one thing I could recommend is maybe put in some important quotes or messages during some BROLL. You're getting some amazing footage! Excited to see where we go from here! No day is promised, nice to see you out enjoying it!
Thank you sir! 🍻
Hey, just came across your channel, keep it up I can't wait to see where this leads you. I've been wanting to do this for years.
Happy for you man. Keep posting and i will keep watching and commenting. looking forward and excited to follow you on your journey. 👍
I'm so glad I stumbled onto your channel! Go out and do it while you're young! Life goes by way too fast especially once you hit 50. I'm 54 and working up in the oilsands and now waiting to do what you're doing once I retire, no complaints but I kind of wish I had done something like this when I was younger. Maybe you'll inspire me to just quit sell my house and do it! Don't get me wrong working up here has given me a lot of opportunity to do some traveling and give my 18 year old son the same opportunities, But I think it's just about my time to move on! Have fun and safe travels!!
Good for you, enjoy yourself and have fun 👍
Only look back to see how far you've come! New beginnings. New and exciting adventures await! New subscriber. 😊
This is awesome! Let the adventures begin...
Bless up brother! Life on the road is the best! Never stop exploring!
Grab a kayak come for a visit, have a cool place to camp. Lyme disease and cancer have slowly taken me out off the market, so I've been off grid and simple for a few years now.
I really love watching your videos. Good for you for taking the BIG STEP out of work. It is the best feeling not having to deal with all the crap. Anyway it will be a super big adjustment but hang in there it’s worth it. Take care.
actually living the dream! congrats!
Hey good on ya!!! Looking forward to watching your adventure!
I totally feel the same way. About to leave my job and hit the road. I personally love the alone time. It can be a bit boring but gives you some time to try something new! But enjoy the freedom to rest, explore and be curious on your own time ❤
Proud of you!!!!
Wish you luck on your journeys and living your life to the fullest. Always remember we all only have one life.
Just came across this video and I am so excited for you! I have subscribed and will watch your past videos. You’re inspiring many people.. looking forward to more adventure content.
WHAT! 😳 Holy cow batman!
So happy for u dude! You're doing what i fantasized doing 30 years ago. Freedom!! So exciting u can go for it. Look fwd to your travels. ✌🏼🍻
Thank you!!! I look forward to sharing!!!
Good Luck to You! Enjoy everyday!
Just stumbled upon your channel, Congratulations man!! You’ll love the journey and the places you’ll see, best decision you’ll ever make. I hope to do this one day!
I just found you. I am so glad you are able to do this. Life is too short not to enjoy it. Please make the most of it. You never know what tomorrow may bring.
Great video can’t wait to see more of your adventures
Always have your "rainy day plan"even when is not raining😊Journaling, painting ,learning to cook well ,reading and finding what you really want to see over
The rainbow 🌈 😊
Best of luck! I'll be watching.
Congrats on living your dream!
Charge ahead hard and don't look back🤘
Thanks dude!!! 🍻
You got a new subscriber. I commend you for making the leap! Enjoy life as work will always be there if needed.
Awesome video
Congrats on making it to this point! I'm in process of a bus conversion and look forward to life on the road as well. See you on the road - Regina, SK
Congratulations! Subscribed 😊😊 Keep up the good videos!
happy for you bro, I'm currently saving for building a van very excited to start this life in the next year or so.
This is a really cool channel dude, I have been working for 15 years myself, just didn't save anything. Wish I did and could start something like this. Anyways, good work and your moving in the right direction. Life is too short, make the most of it!.
Congrats on taking the leap brother. It may feel weird at first but you'll get used to it. Embrace the change! Following your journey!
Good for you! Is what I want to do and will do it with my 2 rescued pups.
You got this! Relax and enjoy yourself!
Congrats dude. Keep pushing through. Onward and upward!
It took me a bit over a year but I finally found a job I could tolerate, hell, even kind of like and now I'm socking away like crazy while I stay with my parents.
The dream is to buy some bare land by the beginning/middle of next year and then work the land in my free time/save until I feel comfortable stepping away and going full time on the property. The cool thing is my job pretty much welcomes back people, like if I was dire for work I could probably get in and then once things open up more I'd likely be able to rejoin full time if needed.
Anyway, all that to say, it will work out, I didn't think it would for me but I'm finding my way and I know you will too. Stay strong.
I’m curious about this journey! New subscriber! Can’t wait to follow! From what I have gathered with a few friends who live on the road put yourself in a routine! It can be done even on the road! Like coffee/workout/run in the morning then something in the evening! Enjoy the adventure can’t wait to follow!
Atta boy! That is one legit smile!
Hell yeah! I’m doing the same thing - living in / working out of my truck, going across Canada! 24 y/o from BC. Trying to figure out where to go next, what to do, all that fun stuff. Stoked to follow your journey!
Awesome dude!!! Stoked for you!!!
Got to be an awsome feeling.
OK, how cool is this? I was given the suggestion by friendly RUclips suggestions. Your opening B Roll gave me a good clue I immediately knew where you were. I’m from Alberta. How fun to find a Canadian nomad. I did laugh when you mentioned you had to hit the road so you could get to your parents for the hockey game
Going to be tough......a lot to adjust to......IMO which we know what opinions mean.....lol....I would have stocked up a storage unit while I was working, I would have stocked a couple sets of tires for truck, oil/filters, plenty of dry food and necessary tools to keep truck and camper in good shape. Money can go fast with a few unforeseen problems.
Good for you! Everyone dies but not everyone truly lives! I'm also living my best life in the same way!
First time see in you but you are literally living a lot of our dream
Sent a like and subscribe. I really dig what your doing. I am very close to doing the same thing. Something inside of me just yearns for the freedom and unknown of quitting your job and hitting the road. Love it. Keep it up. Do what makes you happy 😊 one life to live is all we have 😊
Just found your channel. Giving a follow because we have thought about doing something like this when our last kid is out of high school!
I just found your channel, I can tell youre uncertain about your choice, that " what did i just do " moment that we all experience from time to time. I think you just began an interesting story and I look forward to more from you. Good luck Kevin
I’m looking forward to finding out what I just did! lol it’s a big shock but I’m loving it!
I am sooooo jealous! Loving the adventure! 😂
Congratulations Kevin! So happy for you. You have a skill, so you’ll always have a job so don’t worry. You’re also learning new skills everyday. I follow a RUclipsr who worked years as a HVAC contractor then installed car radios, wenches and other equipment, built his first van and hit the road. He’s in his 4th vehicle with a VERY successful mobile solar install business he started because of all the skills he picked up on his journey.
I’ve thought about doing solar installs on the side! Seems like a great idea!
First video I'm seeing but man is this inspirational! Hoping to do something similar in the near future. Enjoy the journey, lmk if you come through Fairbanks area in Alaska and you got a place to park!
Go for it Remember to have fun😊😊😊
Do it, worst case scenario you can go back to work, but with a lot of experiences gained.
Stay safe ☺
Yooooo, I’m a brand new subscriber, keep doing your thing!
I dream of doing this one day! Best to you and I look forward to watching more of your journey. Would like to see a video on your truck and camper.
My father worked in Nordegg as a prison guard/ crew chief back in the 60's and 70's, when there was an adult prison. He also had a huge tract of land east of the Brazeau range for hunting and trapping. I was very fortunate to have inherited half of that land. I grew up traversing all of the slopes, ridges and peaks around Nordegg and Abraham Lake, both on foot and horseback. It brings great pleasure to see others appreciate the same thing that i am forever grateful to be able to experience daily. There are many forgotten things on the slopes and in the valleys around there. Things that I have yet to see posted on the internet.
Two things that you can try and find:
1. A rarely mentioned, all but forgotten, concrete ruins of a WWII German POW camp. It's location is less than 50km, as the crow flies, from Nordegg.
2. A glacial erratic that is very close to the size the Okotoks big rock and most likely a sister to both the Okotoks and Rocky Mountain house erratics. I actually think it is bigger than the Okotoks one, because it is in the middle of a muskeg field and in a very swampy spot. A lot more of it is buried and cannot be seen. Regardless, it sticks out over 30 feet above the ground/water level and is about 200 feet long by about a hundred feet wide... a massive stone monolith, where no stone should be. That is about 40km as the crow flies from Nordegg.
Al the best to you moving forward!
LOVE this. We recently quit to travel as well, and it's terrifying, but so exciting!
You Gon be fine!!! I will be driving to the us from south America
Hope you enjoy your new freedom. I'm a new subscriber who just started watching.
hell ya man cheers from rocky mountin
Yah bud!! Do it!!
Wow. Just found your channel. Keep posting man. You will find your footing. 👍
Subscribed. I love the Alberta content. Keep it up.
There are several options for work on the road. Work camps for short term. Look into those. You can stop and work for a few months in an area while living in your truck. For instance in a campground for the summer maybe just a thought
I love the idea of being somewhere super remote with a van/truck set up like you have, bring my e-bike with me and get starlink, load in a monitor and a gaming laptop (im a nerd like that) that way I can go off and adventure during the day in a very very remote setting and then come back, cook dinner watch a movie or even my favorite team play, maybe get some work done if you work remotely. then rinse repeat, you could literally be out there for as long as your supplies last you lol which to me is a lot cooler than just always being on the move. Once I felt I explored the area enough I would start looking for a new place, and along the way stop for supplies and whatever else you need and its right off into another super remote destination lol.
Trust in God and yourself. Definitely wouldn’t be put on this path if it wanted to meant to be. Someone mentioned in the comments that you got years to work but not years to enjoy life. Couldn’t be more correct. I’m about to do the same next year for my 50th bday and I have a great job but feel like I’m meant to go out and do more. Congrats and blessings on you amazing adventure. First time you popped up in my feed. Maybe that was for a reason too 🙏🏻🏆💯
Awesome!!!! Thank you!!! 😊
Yoho 🎉goodluck 🙏
So exciting. I hope to do something luke this next year.
Follow your bliss and doors will open where there were no doors before.” I heard that Joseph Campbell quotation when I was a youngster and it struck a nerve. Traveled all my life when I could afford to and now we’re retired we’re exploring South America in our van. Doors sure did open for us and they will for you. Pity the ones who comment that they wish they could.
Middle of nowhere is someone's somewhere.
You are a young man and can get a job anywhere you are. Seasonal work somewhere for a couple weeks to top the funds is easier than you think. Alberta needs workers all over the place. You can do farm jobs...forestry jobs..or just a temp. agency for a few days.
Agreed and that will be the plan once I settle somewhere for the fall after summer and patiently wait for snow lol
Just subbed, I am along for the ride!
Don't worry, be happy..The adjustment period is long and hard on the head. Open your life and allow the universe to flow - it,s time to grow. Try new experiences and follow the seasons. You've made the first stop - the big one. What's ahead???
With how things are going and knowing any day can be your last, i personally think you should go after whatever dream you have
Congratulations. Has to be an overwhelming feeling of both pressure and just a general sense of happiness too. I don't have any children or wife or really any debt but still sort of struggling to just sort of live middle class even though I am a business owner. I sell a lot of different things so not everything is in one basket but the thing that sells the best for me is starting to get exploited by outside buyers, the second that happened I realized I better slow down my life style and in my head I was thinking if it ever did collapse, I would definitely have enough money to downsize my life to something like this, but I still think I'd want a home somewhere. Maybe buy a piece of land in Appalachia and throw a used manufactured home on it. That'd be home base, and really more of my vacation away from life while I travel around in a van/truck with a camper and whenever I get bored, head back home find another place to go to, rinse repeat. Actually wouldn't be as expensive as you might think. I'm already paying $2,000/mo on my apartment plus another $2k/mo for my warehouse. That's almost $50,000 in expenses just for an apartment and a warehouse, and that's before I turn the lights on lol. I would guess I'm dumping closer to like $60k/yr. Don't get me wrong I am happy but I know it's not going to last forever.
maann dont be scared. im trying to figure something similar out as well.
Mountain biking FTW.
Head down to Lake Tahoe end of summer. Moab too
I was young before too, had all this in the 1970s and no fake income;-)
Way back when I made the decision, I felt that everything was going to be ok and felt at peace. I knew then it was the right decision and I have no regrets, not a single one.
Let's go !!! Glad to join you on ya journey bro. Be happy
Enjoy your freedom, it'll all work out just fine.
Just don't forget about protection while out & about the Forest.
Lol, you just mentioned Bear Spray, I was thinking of that... Lol
Subbed from Calgary.
Fricken giver bud!
