Welcome back sir! Great video.. that's some crazy wildlife! 👍🤯.. and crazy overnight drama! Wait a minute.. who's this short hair dude who stole Ian's van? No one seems to worry at all- meanwhile Ian may be somewhere stuffed inside a Nissan Cube with no room to stretch out.. And he's desperate to make a comeback video! Help! This new guy does great editing though, so maybe y'all should work together in the future! Good stuff!
We have an imposter!! The real Ian is stuck in that Cube!! hahaha Thank you! I tried a few new editing tricks this go around. So I'm glad it was noticed. As always, thanks for watching and leaving a comment. The best part of this channel is getting to talk with regulars, like yourself, in the comments! It does my heart good to see people jumped right back on, even though it's been a while since I posted!
Ian ! 🤗I'm very happy your back . You look great . What a fantastic video, I loved seeing all of the wildlife and following you on your adventures. Thank you for sharing Ian 😊 I Like your hair cut, it looks really good.
WOWOWOWOW.. so happy to see this video.... you look amazing and pushing so much confidence!!!!! photography still excellent and what an amazing encounter with the dolphins. woohoo thanks for keeping distance from that alligator, looked huge. would be nice to hear what you been up to and future plans ... take care!!! hope to see more adventures!!!! God bless you!!!
Thank you! I was just thinking on this last trip, I feel like I've changed a lot since I started traveling in the van. I went back and watched some of the video from the first trip I took to Charleston, SC. I was so scared the whole time of every noise I heard. Now I see EMS carry off a crazy person right next to where I'm sleeping and it just seams like a normal evening, hahaha. Thanks for keeping up with the videos over the past few years!!
Thanks for sharing again Ian and I appreciate the content since I have just travelled down to Florida in my van from Canada. I’m currently near Ocala and am heading over to Atlantic side near Vero Beach. Didn’t bring my kayak but would have been nice to connect with you. Safe travels my friend. PS. I also love parking at Cracker Barrels….lol
I binged your content today, and it was fun watching you grow in your confidence. I like all the versions of Ian. My husband and I are considering doing a mini van camper as a weekender vehicle. Couple of nights here and there. Thank you for your insights of the build and where you would improve things.
Dude...couple of points now that I've watched it a second time.... You need that special combo bear / no_see_um spray. Also, the thumb should have been the dolphin breeching next to the kayak... worth 10,000 views... Nice meal cooking section, don't apologize, it looked really good.... I don't think I need a kayak going to Quartzite... Lol... really happy to see you back.
Those no-see-ums are the worst! I wish I'd never crossed paths with them, hahaha. Glad to hear you're headed out on your first trip! Where's the travel location? You got to let me know if you come to the Carolinas.
Yeah, it was a big change. But I gotta say, it's much easier when it's short! haha Thanks for commenting! I know you've been following for a while. It's great to hear from everyone again. Hope you've been well!
Thank you!! "Shaky Hand Picture" is a great name by the way!!! I've never said so before, but I've always thought it, hahaha. Good to hear from you again!
Where’d u go dude? Just found your videos and wanted more! I’m retired and planning on doing the mini Van life and touring the country. Will probably take an e-bike instead of kayak though. Thanks for your content…
I’m still around! I need to get back on the road! I hope you enjoy your trips!! It really is a great and affordable way to travel. The bike is a good idea too. I always wished I had one with me.
I actually had the Cube before the van. I almost sold the van and I was going to just use the Cube. But I couldn't bring myself to get rid of it, haha. It's been a good thing though. I've used the van a few times for work when I have to travel out of town. And it's good having a back up with the Cube getting so old. (It's probably going to brake down soon, hahaha.) So I think it was the right call keeping the van! Building out the Cube was also just a fun project to see if I could make even a small car into a "camper". I think traveling around cheaply and comfortable in a car is available to a lot more people that everyone realizes. So it was kinda a "proof of concept" so to speak. Thanks for watching!!
Great to see you at it again.... I'm finally heading out next week on my maiden voyage and try this minivan life..@big_als_minivantures . I was going to text you and let you know, but this is much better since I get to see you....
Laughing at 3 am would freak me out. I did van life but my anxiety was so bad I hardly slept 😂

Welcome back "stranger"! Great to see you posting again.......hope you do more. 👍 😀
Trying not to be a stranger, haha. It feels good to get a video posted! I've been slacking off with RUclips, I'll admit.

So glad your back. Been watching you for a long time. From the geeky awkward young man on his first build to The confident young man i see today.
✌️🙂

Love the views from a kayak.😍
Great to see you again, I love you videos, stay away from the crackheads , the dolphins are the best!
Thank you!! And I do my best to stay away from them. hahaha
Good to see you again. I love the dolphin shots.
Thanks for watching! I’ve been trying to kayak with dolphins for a while now. So glad to check that off the list. 😂
Glad you’re back on the road again.
Thank you!!

Thanks for watching! Good luck with your build! It’s a lot of fun putting the van together, I’m sure it’ll be great for weekend trips.
Interesting and enjoyable video - thanks!
Thanks for watching! It was fun to make!

@@IanODonnell the first had to be to the Mecca Land .... Quartszite... And the BLM land around it. I calling it my sabbatical to the desert.
Wow I can't believe you cut your hair so short. Another great video Ian.
Yeah, it was a big change. But I gotta say, it's much easier when it's short! haha
Thanks for commenting! I know you've been following for a while. It's great to hear from everyone again. Hope you've been well!
Your hair looks good 👍 with the new cut. I think it flatters your face more.
Great video and love the shorter hair!
Great to see this!
Thank you!! "Shaky Hand Picture" is a great name by the way!!! I've never said so before, but I've always thought it, hahaha. Good to hear from you again!
Welcome back
Thank you!! It's good to be back and chatting with everyone!

More videos please !!!!
I'll do best!! I have a few video ideas in the works.
I thought you sold your caravan and got a cube?
I actually had the Cube before the van. I almost sold the van and I was going to just use the Cube. But I couldn't bring myself to get rid of it, haha.

The "maiden voyage" is always a memorable one! haha
