    We’re Dean & Nala, and we’ve been best friends since December 2018. I was actually cycling around the world when I heard Nala meowing out for me somewhere in the Bosnian mountains. With no intentions of keeping Nala, I knew i had to save the wee kitten and take her to the vet - but I was well aware of the fact that it might be a bit of a challenge considering I only had a bike. However, despite my concerns, Nala quickly climbed out of the front bag on the bike handle and straight onto my shoulder. Since then, we’ve been travelling the world together. So feel free to tag along if you’re interested in following our journey and adventures around the globe ❤️

    The van might be the answer. He and Nala can still bike around, but in the van they will be safer, can sleep, she can stretch out and ride, good for hot times and bad weather too. (bike in the back ready when needed)

      johnm2012 It is possible she was born in the middle of nowhere, as it is doubtful that a human who cared so little about her would put the work in to travel so far to dump her. So sad for the mom. It is a miracle Dean found her no matter the circumstances. I agree, her story is so uplifting. If a human did dump her in the middle of nowhere hopefully Karma will return the favor.

      They say there are two types of cats; high cats and low cats (don't know the official designations). High cats like to be in tall places and look down at their world while the low cats tend to be secretive, be on the ground in semi-hidden places to observe. I think Nala is a high cat.

    Hey Dean, im a fellow Scot and have recently discovered your channel. I totally get your connection with Nala. I have chronic fatigue syndrome and Lyme disease and have spent the last 6 years almost totally bed bound. My two Siamese cats are my constant companions and seem to have a rotation system to keep me company. They sense when I am having a bad or good day and even when I have Lyme seizures.
    I’m lucky that I’m finally recovering and getting outside more and enjoying life. Keep doing what you are doing as it’s making you happy. Life and health are so precious 💓💓

    Amazing to see you driving in comfort, Dean! Nala, is a queen on her Chariot Pillow. Best idea yet, after you were robbed in that remote area awhile back. Granted you got most of your stuff back. That was too scary; also, when you are stopped by people, that won''t let you pass, not good. Not everyone is as friendly and open as you and Nala are. Some people may envy your things, a Van takes away that worry and vulnerability. Glad to see you on the Road again!

      I wanted to get my cat comfortable with traveling too. Tried just driving the backroads in my neighborhood with him loose on the cab with me, and I had the same results. He'd climb on me, then when I took a turn, he'd fall off, trying to hold on with his claws all the way down. He never mellowed out and went with it, so I never attempted any long road trips. Wouldn't have been fair to stress him out like that.
      This guy is really lucky to have gotten Nala so young that she learned to like traveling. My cat was already several years old when I got him. Would have loved taking him on adventures more than anything.

    1:53 It's the Kitty Dish!!! I had a cat who liked to sit in the dished area of my Suburban when we were hitched up to the camp trailer and on the road. Her brother slept in the back seat the entire time we were driving but she loved either curling up in her kitty dish or sitting in the passenger seat with her nose either pressed to the glass to watch the world go by or pressed to the air vents so she could sniff the airs of many places. Like Nala, she was my Intrepid Girl Explorer although she wasn't keen on being harnessed up for walks. She preferred to view the world through her windshield or out of the trailer windows.
