  • We've kicked off our big US road trip and our first stop is the off-grid desert community of squatters, hippies and snowbirds in Slab City, by the Salton Sea in California's Sonoran Desert. We spent a night at Slab City Hostel (www.airbnb.com/rooms/17990088..., which we highly recommend if you're looking for a little adventure experience out of the ordinary and aren't fussy, visited the local night club/bar The Range for prom night and saw live musical performances, and of course visited the art of Salvation Mountain and East Jesus. Many people stopp by just to take a look at these but we highly recommend to spend at least a night there and get to know some of the locals to get some insights to life in the slabs and their reasons for living there.
    We hope you enjoyed this vlog, our southwestern part of our roadtrip is coming up next!
    Love,
    A + L

    Hey friends! This kicks off our big US road trip and our first stop was in Slab City, California - a really interesting and unique experience! Many people visit to check out Salvation Mountain and East Jesus, but we highly recommend staying overnight and getting to know some of the locals to chat about life in the slabs and their reasons for living there. Link to the Slab City Hostel is in the description - not for fussy people but if you're adventurous, we recommend it! Up next is our Southwestern part of the trip - Joshua Tree, Vegas, Monument Valley etc. Greetings from New Orleans!

      New Orleans? That isn’t close to CA I was excited to see you tour my state. I’ve been watching you two for about three years now and started my channel with my girlfriend at the time. Since then, we have separated and I’m now traveling in my van solo. I love that you’re both traveling by camper too! If you make it to Northern CA say hello!

    Slab City!! My dad used to live on the other side of Salton Sea at Salton Sea Beach. That whole area is the forgotten California. There is so much money in this state but none is ever allocated to cleaning up the sea or that area. It’s very sad. Thanks for taking us to Slab City! What an experience!

    This vlog was great! You did an amazing job and what a great spot. I'm a native Californian, and never heard of the place. I loved the music you used, the color, designs, the "prom" night, the interview with the old guy. You guys should make a living traveling and making these amazing vlogs do you so well, and then do a full-length documentary film of the best ones. You can do it! Just sayin'

    Alexis and Lilian,
    If you were to compare the best or worst night on your honeymoon to your one night in Slab City.
    Which one would you go back to?
    This episode raises your level of adventure.

      We’d love to go back to Slab City! India was fun too but more exhausting 😉 Though south Goa was definitely more beautiful than the Slabs 😄 Thanks for watching!
