Thank you!! I fully agree, especially after traveling extensively abroad. While I wasn’t born here, I am very proud to consider myself from the Olympic peninsula as that’s where I grew up
Another wonderful little film. Thank you. Your writing to start the video was terrific. More of your writing, please! Loved the Muir quote. Can’t wait for your next share. 😊
For some reason that spot looks familiar when I was out there exploring last year in the evening with my campfire I was able to get a picture of a shooting star. It’s a great area.
It’s possible you camped nearby or at the same spot! It’s right on the Hoh and outside the national park. One of my new favorite spots for sure, love being so close to the river
Yes, there is some really nice spots by Rivers out that way that are great on a nice clear night to see the moon and stars there a nice hill side spot out by hood sport wa that has a nice view of hood canal
dang, that was beautiful! so cool to see washington through your eyes and comforting to hear you talk about what feels like home as I am exploring that myself this winter. can't wait for the next one
I'm from Georgia but come out regularly each year to walk into the Olympics to set up my hammock and just soak in the beauty, greenery, and the awesome peace and quiet. If I could, like you I would live in my Land cruiser if I had to just to call the Olympics my home. Only thing holding me back is the wife has no desire to live there! Hopefully one day I can buy a few acres put a small shelter on it and do short stays.
Getting some land out there to put a cabin on for short stays is also my dream. What kind of Land Cruiser do you have? I lived out of my old 87 FJ60 out there for a summer back in 2012. One of my favorite summers!
Brother. I have a white 2003 v8 4Runner limited and I just came across your channel. You have inspired me to prep my truck and go disconnect in nature. In a way I needed to see this. Thank you.
We’re nearly 4runner twins! Mine is a 2004 Limited with the V6. I’m really glad to hear you’re inspired tho ❤️ you don’t need much to get out for a night or two
To be alone 😂 I totally get that haha, that’s why I love living here in Washington it’s absolutely beautiful and love to get lost in the woods by my self, and being alone is also a good thing ❤ I’m planning a trip now to forks to get lost in the woods after watching you’re videos ! Love your RUclips by the way!!
Thanks for sharing your daily activities and life 💐🙏🏽💖 It’s fascinating to see how peaceful and blessings your lifestyle is! Greetings from lake Geneva,, 👍😉💖💐🙏🏽
Amazing video! I spend a ton of my time out on the peninsula, but live in Seattle. Seems your favorite places are the same as mine! When i can get out there, I'll just watch your videos. Really well done, best wishes
i come out here all the time. While i dont see it in a romantic way like in this video, it's a great place to have some peace and quiet and catch some fish in peaceful river spots. The drive here just sucks because it's a few hours out.
Oh for sure, I think I romanticize it because it’s where I grew up and even though I’ve traveling the world, there’s still no place that gives me the same feelings.
I also have a 4Runner which is what caught my attention to watching your videos. Love your set up. I’m curious about the portable fire pit you’re using. Do you have a link ? Thanks.
Thank you!! I don’t like my setup very much but it gets the job done hahaha I just put a link to the fire pit down in the description under the affiliate section.
I love your videos you are so talented. Thank you for sharing them. I saw another commenter ask if you’re drinking instant coffee in another video. Have you tried Bustelo instant? It’s all I drink and tastes so much better to me than regular coffee plus it’s easy to make and can be hot or cold. Great for camping. Looking forward to more of your wonderful videos.
Aww thank you!! I have tried bustello and it’s def one of my favs. I keep instant around as a backup for when I run out of beans since I’m in the wilderness for quite a while and there’s no nearby stores to get whole beans. Also sometimes I don’t wanna hassle with making coffee so instant it is!
how are you sittin up?? Do you have a build video? I just bought a 4runner for camping, and I can't sit up. That's a dealbreaker for me. Don't want a van, love my 4R. Love to know how you built yours out.
I built my platform low just so I could sit up! I don’t have a build video but when I redo my build later this year, I’ll be making a video of that. I’ll be making it even lower to be able to sit up better.
Awesome relaxing video Nathanael, Love the scenery and know this place well. I have land in the mountains of washington. Keep the videos coming. Subbed
Wow 🤩 what beautiful scenery and most amazing places. New subscriber here 😊. Grayman Van Life set me over. Thank you for sharing this wonderful story/video with us. Many blessings 🙏🏻
Great content, how the hell do you not have more subs? Anyway, butter has a low smoke point so if you add some oil that has a higher smoke point it will keep the butter from burning. Just a suggestion
Thank you dude!! I don’t have more subs cause I haven’t been consistent but I’m changing that. Good to know about the adding some oil, I’ll def do that next time cause my butter was burning haha I appreciate it!
If you don't know already , it seems like your tires are too big for your suspension. Maybe time to upgrade you a toyota sequoia. I have a first gen so much space. You migh😢 be supris🎉
Oh they do look a little big cause I have no lift but they don't rub at all! I'll be putting a suspension lift on at some point cause my spring and shocks are pretty tired. A Sequoia is enticing but I've got my eyes on a couple different Toyota 4x4's for an upgrade
It’s cold for sure but I love it! I use way less power keeping everything running, mainly my fridge. The worst part so far has been keeping the humidity down but I just run the AC more now
Thank you so much for watching! The boots I’m wearing are Danner Mountain Lights. Not the best for hiking but they’re amazing for general outdoor use and I’ve had them for many years now and they’re still some of the most comfortable shoes I’ve owned
Beautiful video. The Olympic peninsula is one of the most extraordinary places on earth, it touches the soul. Proud to be a lifelong Washingtonian.
Thank you!! I fully agree, especially after traveling extensively abroad. While I wasn’t born here, I am very proud to consider myself from the Olympic peninsula as that’s where I grew up
Another wonderful little film. Thank you. Your writing to start the video was terrific. More of your writing, please! Loved the Muir quote. Can’t wait for your next share. 😊
No, thank you!! Really appreciate it, truly. My writing will definitely be featured in more videos going forward ❤️

Oh I know about those spots near Hoodsport, I grew up on that side! Such a beautiful area
Just recently visited Olympic and the Hoh Rain Forest last September - such a magical place! Love the 4Runner life too!
It’s truly one of the most magical places, love it out there so much. Thanks for watching dude!
G'day from Australia. Great video mate. Beautiful spot and I like your 4x4. Cheers.
Thanks mate!
dang, that was beautiful! so cool to see washington through your eyes and comforting to hear you talk about what feels like home as I am exploring that myself this winter. can't wait for the next one
😭😭😭 thank you!!! Just trying to do this crazy place justice
I miss Washington and it’s majestic scenery everyday, thank you for creating this art!
Aww Washington misses you!! Thank you for watching!

Me too!!

Very nice!! Well done! it is hard to put into words, what a beautiful state we live in , great job!! 👏👏
Thank you! Hard to put into words indeed
Killed it in this video keep enjoying bro
I haven't searched but any videos specifically on using your 4th gen 4runner on your adventures? reliability, comfort. pros, cons etc.
“Insignificant and significant at the same time” nothing but truth there.
Glad you liked that part 😄
Nice story time video! Some great B roll too!
Thanks so much!
Beautiful bro, living the dream . I can’t wait to visit there .
Thanks man! Visit soon
Love the content bro! Just subscribed
Amazing video! I spend a ton of my time out on the peninsula, but live in Seattle. Seems your favorite places are the same as mine! When i can get out there, I'll just watch your videos. Really well done, best wishes
Thank you so much!!! We’re so lucky to have a place like Olympic within a couple hours drive
Totally lucky! Also, that should have said "when I can't get out there," haha.
i come out here all the time. While i dont see it in a romantic way like in this video, it's a great place to have some peace and quiet and catch some fish in peaceful river spots. The drive here just sucks because it's a few hours out.

That forest is stunning
It really is!! Love it out there so much
Awesome relaxing video Nathanael, Love the scenery and know this place well. I have land in the mountains of washington. Keep the videos coming. Subbed
Thank you so much for watching!! I’d love to have land in the mountains one day, it’s one of my savings goals right now
Wow 🤩 what beautiful scenery and most amazing places. New subscriber here 😊. Grayman Van Life set me over. Thank you for sharing this wonderful story/video with us. Many blessings 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for being here Crystal! I appreciate you watching and for the kind words ❤️❤️
Amazing video 🫶🏽 please keep this content coming
Thank you!! ❤️ Will definitely be more on the way
what year is your 4runner?
Great content, how the hell do you not have more subs? Anyway, butter has a low smoke point so if you add some oil that has a higher smoke point it will keep the butter from burning. Just a suggestion

Good to know about the adding some oil, I’ll def do that next time cause my butter was burning haha I appreciate it!
Where did you end up camping? Do you use a specific app to find places?
I ended up on the Hoh! I use a combination of google maps and an app called iOverlander
If you don't know already , it seems like your tires are too big for your suspension. Maybe time to upgrade you a toyota sequoia. I have a first gen so much space. You migh😢 be supris🎉

beatiful!
Thanks so much!
Nice vid. Home for me as well. I dont get out as much as I would like.
Thank you so much for watching!

bro you up there all winter?
I’ll be up here until spring I think!
@@NathanaelBillings wow! How has cold weather camping been? WA is my favorite state but just seemed to cold for the winter 🥶
It’s cold for sure but I love it! I use way less power keeping everything running, mainly my fridge. The worst part so far has been keeping the humidity down but I just run the AC more now
@@NathanaelBillings so cool! Do you have a heater or how have you been staying warm at night?
Great , great video. Enjoyed it thoroughly.
Thank you so much.
By the way great hiking boots.
What brand ??
Thank you so much for watching! The boots I’m wearing are Danner Mountain Lights. Not the best for hiking but they’re amazing for general outdoor use and I’ve had them for many years now and they’re still some of the most comfortable shoes I’ve owned
4:14 , that was scary laugh
Lmao yeah
Just Subbed
Thank you!! Glad you’re here
