    I hear adding rain guards to your car will allow you to crack your window for air and no one will be able to see the opening. Sounds like a win 🎉

    Couldn't sleep.
    Stumbled onto your channel.
    Binge watched a bunch of your videos.
    I love that you are truthful about life on the road.
    I wish I had the nerve to try it!
    I don't know if I have enough patience and tolerance but you have shown me to just keep trying new things.
    I will seriously consider jumping in my truck and just going.
    Life is short!
    Thank you for the motivation!

    If you tint out the windows darker it helps in many ways. Those light reflector panels are not easy to notice at all if your windows are dark. It also helps keep the prying eyes out when the shades are not in place.

    I live near Mount Rainier. I see cars from different states, with their camping gear, pass by my house on their way to the mountain (or mountains) 24/7/265. You'd love this place.

    I’m forced to live life alone. I’m vacating my apartment end of September. Going to buy a cargo trailer probably a 6x10 and convert to a camper. Really just need to install a window for fresh air, getting my buddy heaters for the winter, and eventually install a window ac unit with solar panels. Lots of campgrounds here, blm land and truck stops

    Hi. I just found your channel, and have been working my way through your videos. I enjoy watching you travel and trying new things. It's nice that you include your mistakes and how you work through them. It makes you more relatable. My only suggestion would be to say or do something to indicate the end of a video. It doesn't have to be much. The videos seem to just stop. Which I guess is one way to keep people wanting more, because I definitely do. Again, I enjoy what you have done. Have fun and keep exploring.

    I was at Starved Rock mid-July. If you make it further north, Pictured Rock National Lakeshore is really beautiful. Also, check out Indiana Dunes National Park. You can sleep overnight in the parking lot of the visitor center. And if you have a National Park pass, you can go to the campground and use their shower. But, there is a Planet Fitness several miles away as well if you're a member.

    I did RV camping for 6 years and Wal Mart is acceptable, but a last resort. Too many kids and hooligans hanging out late at night, they are loud and don't feel safe. Rest stops might have big truck noise, but at least I feel safe. We had a white noise machine in our camper for travel days. Bug spray on the window screens, genius!!! Thanks for the tip.

    Zipper lubricant ! Oh no. It sure does look like lip balm though. I have never in my life seen only a couple cars at a Wal lot. They have a nationwide policy that you are allowed to do that. Wow, unheard of. It's a last resort for me but did just stay at one a month ago in Cortez, Col that was quite nice yet loaded with all kinds of vehicles. That one had a designated area for all the overnighters. Have a 'Pasty' for me. Pronounced 'Pastee'. Lol

It’s been extremely eye opening in soooo many ways of life that I just never knew until I started this journey. It sounds like you are on that journey and I hope
      You continue to find the love and peace for it as my dog and I have. And for what it’s worth I think you are my soulmate haha. You’re exactly the type of counterpart most guys would be lucky to find :). Thank you for sharing your adventures with all of us and inspiring those who want to try this lifestyle and also those of us already there. Your awesome!

    Hi Elisa, there is bunch of apps for finding free camping also if you want to stay on WM parking lot, go ask the manager or come there after the store is closed. I see you are on Upper Peninsula, if you still there and maybe going west, follow the Lake Superior, it is beautiful there. If you can visit Isle Royal National Park and Copper Harbor. You will love it.
