I’m convinced I’ve lost all track of time. I posted this video to Patreon three days early on accident, & while going to publish this video today I realized that it’s only Sunday. I haven’t posted on Sunday in…..what feels like forever. I’m blaming it on the fact that I’ve been sick in bed for a few days now for the first time in years, and think I forgot how to human. Anywho, here’s to posting on a sunday for memory’s sake, I hope you guys…. are doing well & um, that u aren’t sick. Especially if ur in a van. That stuff’s scawy. Seriously tho, if you live in a van maybe check on the status of your medicine cabinet ;)
When you said "I just can't people right now" it touched me as I often feel that way. I just wanted to affirm that feeling that way isn't selfish. The only person you owe your time to is you. Anyone else you share your time with, like us, your viewers, are just fortunate beneficiaries of your generosity. Thank you for those moments. Keep doing you.
Hey, Mariah .. Just wanna say that I've been following your journey for a while now, I want to let you know how much I admire your courage to live freely, alone. I always picture myself doing the same and so many questions cross my mind, like if would be able to live alone as you do, as much as I want it, I know its not easy. You inspire me a lot, really do. Makes me want to be there, see all this with my own eyes, and feel it. You are strong and Finn is a great friend. Wish you the best
GIRL you're definitely not alone in the sense of losing marbles and working through some deep stuff about relationship with yourself and your mind - it's definitely in the collective. Don't think I've ever heard from more people that that seems to be the general energy that we're going through. In and through is the only way!
Finn inside your jacket so adorable and following your instinct was a great decision. I can tell Finn is a great travel buddy and once again you don't disappoint with your video, kinda miss that last week. Be safe and thanks for sharing.
From watching all your videos, it’s doesn’t seem like you know what you want to do or go with your self but honestly most of us really don’t either. I hope you are truly enjoying this time in your life because you will look back 30 years from now and probably realize this was the best time of your life. Loved your shot of the reflection of you and pup walking near the water
I’m a 42 year old in South Africa and I work in wildlife film. I just binged all of your videos in a week! Watching your journey, both personally and as a filmmaker, has been really incredible. I think you have big things on your horizon if you keep following this path. Your instincts for imagery and the way you cut is really engaging and I’m totally hooked. I’m also decided that I would probably only ever be part-time on the road but I still badly want a pro-camper so I can start exploring my country more and for longer periods! Keep up the good work!
I really love the recent addition of the astrophotography time-lapse in your videos. It fits so well with the whole vibe and they are always really beautiful and fun to watch.
That place you found in Moab looked so restorative, Willow Springs was busier than ever this year and I’m officially never going back 😅 ps hope you feel better soon
We were in Willow Springs a few weeks ago and it was packed. People literally parked on top of us. You could touch the next persons vehicle from your own. Never again.
Ahhh I get like this too. I love that you have a therapist and that you mention that, also that you did something instead of let yourself get further into your head. Such good mental health practices and awareness, and such a great role model ❤ Another awesome video thank you Mariah 😊
Another great video. I would love to see Finn jumping over the creek in slow motion with some dramatic music. It would be Fantabulous. It would make a great RUclips short.
I’ve been binge watching your videos for the past semester. It’s wonderful to see how well your general mood, adaptability, and story telling improved as time passes. Idk where I’m going with this but I just want to say thank you for getting me through a brutal school year! Your videos have given me a lot to daydream 💭 🚐
Totally understand your decision fatigue. I can’t decide what to eat for lunch most days. You are having so many decision-making moments. You are lovely! Love you!
Your videos kept me company and helped keep me from getting stuck in my own head while I was doing a very boring project in my garage today. Thank you for making them and sharing your story. 🙂
YUR FUNNY... THE REALIZING OF REALITY... YUP, I UNDERSTAND THAT. BUT YA GOT FINN, AND HE UNDERSTANDS YOU, NOTHING LIKE A FRIEND WHOS A GOOD LISTENER. I ENJOY HEARING YOU ASK QUESTIONS AND ACT ON HOW YOU WILL GET TO WHEREVER MAY BE. THATS THE FREEDOM OF NOT HAVING A 9-5. BASK IN IT AND BE BLESSED. ITS A GOOD THING.
I've heard that Moab has been overrun for a while now, but at least you can go a bit further out and loose the crowds. I've always found plenty of hidden gems a little bit further down the road every place I go. I was actually planning on camping in roughly the same area that you did just to avoid the crowds. Glad that it's not overrun...yet. Safe travels!
Epic,, just epic Mariah.... Your emotional maturity is so genuine and Beautiful... Alone and lonely, I believe have their own meaning,,,and Finn always has your 6....
Hey I have been van lifing for years all over the UK and Brittany, France, and Portugal. Its a very powerful spiritual thing being out in a wilderness and depending on yourself and staying in a cosy safe campervan. I love the weather and the beauty of Earth and I also love my van, which is the best van in the world. Have a good trip and stay safe. Hope you read this. A fellow van lifer from Brittany whaaay over here. P.S. you would love it here too so plan a Europe trip. All the best. 🙂
Glenwood Springs , you went by my place by Silt Colorado. Some suggestions from an OTR trucker : go down to Santa Fe via Alamosa, the Great Sand Dunes, and the Alligator farm, Antonito, Oho Caliente hot springs ECT. Rabbit Ears pass and Steamboat Colorado. Kannab Utah, and Glen Canyon dam, then south thru Page Az. Just south of Page, you drop off a big pass, that has a view for miles & miles, just phenomenal ! I-90 across Idaho, the mining district ,Lake Coure D lane, Ellensburg Washington, Wenatchee , Snowqualmie pass,ECT. I-84 over Cabbage hill in Oregon, and of course the Columbia River Gorge.
You always give me such hope; for my future unknown van life, indecision, wobbly steps … Introverts rule number 1…ways to do “no people” in a world filled with vans, rv, finding glorious unseen paths of dirt that alway lead to your heart and desire to finally breath in so deeply when you hear just the outer sounds and your heartbeat as one again…💝💖 Fin 🐾💙 thank you. 💖
I'm blown away each time you upload a video. I'm heading to NE Colorado to visit family at the beginning of June. I can't wait. I feel the same way wanting to be alone in a place like that. Thanks for sharing this special experience!
i always look forward to your videos! You express your humanness so very well, what most of us are not always able to do. I hope you continue for the extended future!
Great video, the emotional side touched me and the chance of things unknown are so worth the risk. I’m currently stuck disbursed at the end of a dirt road. I told myself, stay on the gravel because this dirt gets like mayonnaise. Well it did. I have all my supplies and I don’t have to be anywhere at anytime. Thanks again for sharing. 😻🤗.
Thanks for another vlog of our great country. Your life passes such beautiful places and you'll look back someday and ask yourself, where was I during all this? Time will fly by before you know it so enjoy this time, this place, this life that is yours, while you can. Take care and I hope you will continue to take us all along with you on this life's journey.
I find it heartbreaking to see a young person struggling in life. I am 44 i wish i was smart enough, to do the life you do right now. Hit the road in a van and do the real living. Go to places. The only thing i know is work work work. Well working isn't that all in life. You stay strong and do what you do best. Greetz from the Netherlands.
Head down to Roosevelt lake in Arizona, there is plenty of dispersed camping and if you need to you can go use a shower add one of the camp grounds circles
Just got back from Moab a few weeks ago and it was insane. We left there and went west to Goblin State Park and Little Wild Horse Canyon and had a great time. Little to no people and incredible scenery. Won't be going back to Moab.
Great views! The weather should be warmer by now, lol! People, yeah. Something I’d like to share with you is that people are just where they are, being who they are. You and me included. Doesn’t help when needing a break from folks, but maybe it’ll help to tolerate them. Hope you are having fun! I look forward to seeing your next video!
U got us. Wherever u go… U got us. We won’t be so close to u, like breathing down ur neck close. But also very close to u whenever u need us to be… Just the right amount. U got us…
My life really just feels like one dirt road after another - and I love it! - Mariah Alice That's a quote that gets to live on the wall in my van for inspiration! Thanks!
I just found your videos. And I absolutely LOVE you! You remind me so much of myself. I mean maybe 20 years ago. But you made me feel so many emotions. I am recently considering van life. You have made me. 100 percent sure. It is for me! Thank you! And Thank you for being amazing!
I hope you like SD! It’s my home state. Been here for the last 2 weeks and the weather is beautiful. Can’t wait to see next week’s video. Hope you enjoy the Black Hills and Badlands!
The cinematography and editing of your videos are so good actually! Sometimes it's like you have an external camera operator (which I know you don't) with you. You're nailing this youtube thing, love it!
Hey Mum no hands driving hehe! So brave & adventurous Mariah! Love that u seemed to use rock to hit peg in for shade truly living off grid! Stay well & safe! 🇦🇺🤗💖
I'm 4:58 into this video with it paused as i type this. Firstly. When the video started and I saw the title "Journey East" I out loud, alone in my house said, "Hell yeah!". Im super excited for you and your adventure! Secondly. Where I've paused you just got done talking about the feelings you get when your zero-expectation turns out mind-blowing. When you said, "... At the life ive somehow managed to create for myself..." When you said "create for myself" I deadass out-loud said "Hell f*ckin yeah! Own it! Hell yeah!" Im just so super stoked for you and your adventure!....... Okay, sending this and pressing play.
Excited to see what you see is South Dakota! Grew up in Nebraska and was able to venture into the black hills a handful of times. Far too underrated. Hope you make it back to CO soon! Also, thanks for sharing g those days when you’re not feeling the best. Keep going!
It sure is nice not having to see any garbage or litter in your travels Mariah. Ever considered going north or south of the border ? I remember living in my primitive van set up and being on a road to nowhere. I do concur with the peace of not having to be around strangers and lots of 'em.
Used to really love Moab and still give it a chance every year, but I usually can handle the craze a couple of days before wigging out. I fled this spring and oddly ended up in the Badlands (in the worst wind storm imaginable) - hope you have better luck. The weather in this part of the country has been terrible to say the least. Not sure what track your on but heading through Minnesota (I'm here for a summer job) and then Michigan's U.P. is a great time this part of the year (once Spring/summer gets here 🙄). Enjoy yourself.
Sorry ❤️ dear , I'm so late today...I was really busy ...........and the best part is after watching your video... its kind of like all exhaustion and stress are gone....relaxing one ❤️❤️❤️ lots of love....keep 💝🌈
Great vid! Just wanted to say I hope your mental well being improves (I sometimes do find myself in that state of mine just stuck in my own head and yea its not fun its quite draining, just wanted to say don't let your mind get the best of you)
Another work of art! Thanks for taking the time to make these videos and share all the beauty in your life! I'm unfortunately sick too :( luckily not in a van (yet) though
I was in that area, and in that state of mind as well - I found a spot 25 miles out of Moab - thought I was finally alone. Got all set up and relaxed - and a drone flew up and hovered right outside my window. I about snapped! Aagghhh!!! (If you own a drone, dont be an asshole!!)
I’m convinced I’ve lost all track of time. I posted this video to Patreon three days early on accident, & while going to publish this video today I realized that it’s only Sunday.

Drive to New England...Maine is a fun place there are unlimited places to safely park overnight!
Come enjoy..

I got covid on the road last summer living out of my truck it’s no fun being sick on the road, good luck! Eat soup!

Your video of Finn jumping at the drone was priceless... Thank you for sharing your world! Best to you!
Finn is seriously the best travel partner anyone could ask for
This.
Tom is pretty awesome too 😁
@@RideWithTheWolf what does that mean?
I get stuck in my own head too. Being present in what ever way works for you is a great way to step outside of your inner narratives. Take care!

"another blink of the eye another decade flies by" does words hit me right in my soul

We’ll only be east for a little this time around but we’ll be for reals east this fall!!
The way you put your hand in the freezing cold creek to cup some water for Finn to drink out of, that's the Mariah I see.
finding and being in such wonderful spaces is always welcome

The cinematography and editing of your videos are so good actually! Sometimes it's like you have an external camera operator (which I know you don't) with you. You're nailing this youtube thing, love it!
I'm heading to Utah soon, so I am really glad I watched this! I should have realized how busy it would be out west right now.
Hey Mum no hands driving hehe! So brave & adventurous Mariah! Love that u seemed to use rock to hit peg in for shade truly living off grid! Stay well & safe! 🇦🇺🤗💖
I like the views that you present, very nice. sometimes it's good to get away from people

Southwestern Colorado is home to the Great Sand Dunes National Park. It's an excellent place to go between two beautiful mountain ranges!
Utah is so incredible!! ❤️💯
Excited to see what you see is South Dakota! Grew up in Nebraska and was able to venture into the black hills a handful of times. Far too underrated. Hope you make it back to CO soon! Also, thanks for sharing g those days when you’re not feeling the best. Keep going!
Hi. You can level your van by backing up on boards. Nice video.
It sure is nice not having to see any garbage or litter in your travels Mariah. Ever considered going north or south of the border ? I remember living in my primitive van set up and being on a road to nowhere. I do concur with the peace of not having to be around strangers and lots of 'em.
When you said 40 miles East I knew you had to be close to where I stayed in the fall which was Warner Lake. Underrated area!
I stayed on that random road near moab a few months ago. It was nice being completely alone for a week.
Used to really love Moab and still give it a chance every year, but I usually can handle the craze a couple of days before wigging out. I fled this spring and oddly ended up in the Badlands (in the worst wind storm imaginable) - hope you have better luck. The weather in this part of the country has been terrible to say the least.

All the best to Finn xx The best road buddy going!
I'm parked at the same spot...must have just missed you...the spot is one of my favorites in the whole state of Utah.
Great find. Thanks for sharing!
Your videos are so relaxing. And i love your hair!
Finn IS a good road trip buddy. I can tell. You know how? I don't either... but I just can. lol
I am sorry that you were feeling out of sorts. I hope you find your drive restorative.

Another work of art! Thanks for taking the time to make these videos and share all the beauty in your life!
I'm unfortunately sick too :( luckily not in a van (yet) though
I was in that area, and in that state of mind as well - I found a spot 25 miles out of Moab - thought I was finally alone.
Got all set up and relaxed - and a drone flew up and hovered right outside my window.
I about snapped! Aagghhh!!!
(If you own a drone, dont be an asshole!!)
Bad days, build better days..Happy travels 🙏🧡🇦🇮
The stars!!
"I can't do people right now". I hear that on the deepest of levels.
