me again. :)
After a week and a half of caravanning together, Abi and I part ways. I readjust to life alone, and show some of my private moments as I settle back into solitude. Solitude is a powerful teacher. How long have you gone, without seeing a single other person? As I leap back into the wild, thinking about what it means to be misunderstood.
I hope you’re well. Talk soon.
Lyss.

I love your story. My mom died last year, and my wife has been sick for a few years due to toxicity and environmental issues. Death erases all fears. I'm 37. I quit my job and used my savings to buy a trailer and tow vehicle. We are on the road and don't have a plan for tomorrow. Currently in AZ, and will be heading up north. Best of luck on your continued journey.
It blows my mind how so many people can't understand why someone would want to live this way, especially considering the current state of the world we live in. I can't wait to go off grid and disappear into nature, every ounce of my being tells me this is what I need to be happy. Thanks for your courage and for sharing your life with us through these videos. I see you and I understand why you do what you do. Never stop!
im wivu lyss..Alone time is wen i distance myself from the voices of the world so i can hear my own..Take care out there and enjoy the silence..🙏💜
Two weeks, I have gone two weeks with complete silence and no people, no electronics. It felt like a long time. I did have pets to keep me company, and a horse to ride, and of course the wind in the trees. It is amazing how deep one can think during a time period like that.
wow that sounds really soul reviving. I havent done that but I want to experience it one day. I deleted instagram and Facebook and that alone has been so soul reviving.
The purpose is that you are living a beautiful life on your own terms. Love your videos and Rio. Solitude is a solitary place that only makes getting together with your community (Abi) all the more sweeter.❤️. Keep on (courageous) ladies!
Thank you friend!!

@@REGRETLYSS1 Cool lifestyle you live, like you I to live alone, solitude can really help one figure out who you really are deep down inside your soul. I soon will get a new dog to replace my beloved labrador retriever Rocky, for companionship but the new dog will never be like the first one. Take care of yourself Ma'am, and stay safe in all of your wonderful travels, and God bless you.
I love the way you started your video , it was awesome 🙂. It was nice that you and your friend was able to hangout together,and enjoy nature's beauty. I know how it can be when you both have a different direction to go. There are times I won't see a person for a week , or two being on my sailboat. I don't mind being alone , but at times it get lonely.
watching your videos I find myself wishing my sailboat was finished , so I could go where ever the winds blow me. With that I wish you safe travels and the best of times exploring all the great beauty nature has to show you. Peace and blessings.
The longest I have gone without seeing another person was about 8 weeks... It was wonderful. I spend a lot of time alone. i enjoy my own company and very rarely feel actual loneliness. I am a loner by nature and it took forty years before I found a partner who understands this. So now i have someone to share life with yet i still find myself craving solitude. I have a "mini camper" (a subaru) which i take off in whenever I can... overnighting in beautiful places, eating outdoors, swimming in rivers and lakes and the ocean. Alone. Always alone. I really don't think i want to share this part of my life. It is how i recharge, reconnect and refresh.
Solitude is not a bad thing.
Stay safe xx
This brought tears to my eyes. I miss you friend! I really loved reliving that moment when we saw the deer!
I’ve lived on the road for over 2 years. I drove through the U.S. in a 1995 Toyota Corolla and had an annual Anytime Fitness gym membership, which have showers, so I was able to stay fit and clean throughout the trip. I slept outside on beaches or inside my car at Costco parking lots during daylight hours and stayed up at night for safety. Activities were done early morning or early evening. My car has since broken down, so now I spend my life homesteading my family ranch, selling duck eggs and kimchi at the farmer’s market. I’m saving up for a Tesla. It shouldn’t be too long before I get on the road again.
Did you make it back on the road again?
Hi, I started to follow your channel and I admire your courage to follow your heart and share your feelings with us, it helped me look inside myself to make some positive changes in my life, I wish you the best and please continue with your dreams and Rio is a great companion and I see how happy both of are sharing those memories together 🙏
This comment means more to me than you know. Thank you Camilo. I'm really glad you're here. ❤
Most of us talk the talk, but don't do the walk. You're doing the off grid walk. That is the purpose of all this.✌️
It makes me sad as hell that Women are living like this and doing pointless silly stuff like dancing on the edge of a cliff instead of getting married and starting families. Sad times.
@@whiteprivilegedenier7459 troll
@@whiteprivilegedenier7459 that sadness is yours alone. Women don't exist simply to get married and produce children. I know I made a much better partner and parent because I spent years in nourishing solitude and doing MY own thing. I'm much healthier for it, and by right, so are all of my relationships.
@@nicothenatural Invasion by foreign armies and populations and mass rape are the only thing that a country like this has to look forward to. Sex will be taken from women like this by foreign armies because they refused to give to the men of their own land.
Such a deep reflective thinker. I love it. As a truck driver over the road for weeks at a time your understanding of solitude is something we deal with as truckers on the regular. Keep up the good work. Road warriors like us and deep thinkers always are misunderstood and that's an awesome thing because it shows you are unique...Stay safe out there.
I am happy for you. You are doing what so many people wish they had the balls to do. Solitude is a very scary thing for most people. I have been a solitary man most of my life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. You get to see the beauty of our country, most never see.

More like balls of green💸💸, not everyone can onlyfan...😱NOT SAYING SHE DOES!😱 Just making a point. 💖🤗 you go girl, love your journeys
"I finally have become my own muse." Powerful stuff lady. Thanks for sharing that journey
I loved that line too
Another really nice video, Alyssa! As usual, beautiful scenery in Utah. You asked about solitude. Since I am retired, live alone and a stroke recoverer, I sometimes don’t see another person for 7-10 days or even two weeks. Since I am basically a loner, it’s not bad at all. I spend my time reading (so many books on my reading list), watching movies and sports on TV and listening to music (I have a huge collection of records and CDs, plus streaming). And, I do make contact with friends through the phone and social media (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter). So my type of solitude is not bad at all. I suggest you just stay busy and have some goals. And, most important, enjoy your chocolates, my friend! Chet, Roanoke, Virginia
You're the best Chet. Thanks for sharing how you experience solitude. :)
I like how your dog tells you he’s ready for the walk, just a subtle noise bop. Super cute
she's the best :)
@@REGRETLYSS1 how old ?
@@bubblesrcshed she is 3!
@@REGRETLYSS1 oh wow lots of energy at that age. My Weimaraner is 4 and she is completely insane 🤪
As I get closer to my travel goals, certain things start to become known to family and friends. Like when you sell things, and are doing extra work on the house to prepare for selling it, questions come up. That is when societal norms are evident in the way most people view life. They think it's very strange to wanna go out on the road and live this way, they don't get it. They'll try and reason with you and talk you into going a different direction. To me, a simple life without all the entanglements of big houses filled with stuff is so freeing. The longer I live, the more minimalist I become. With age, experience and life lessons, a person starts to understand what really matters in life.
Well said. I absolutely love your free spirit, your beautiful soul, it's about the freedom,knowing that only you can go and do what you want to and love doing it. No argument, no explanation, the courage to do what you do. Our fur babies are the Greatest, they don't judge, they love unconditionally, always there, know what your feeling, your such a beautiful person, inside and out. Stay Safe, stay strong, live Free, enjoy the freedom on your face, always remember the 10 words I posted a while back - if it is to be, .. it is up to me.. 😊❤️
If only the masses of humanity possessed the empathy and compassion of Fur Babies this world would be far more hospitable and loving.
The road ahead is long
Once again you’re gone.
No need to know where it leads to.
As long as you get through.
The end is not in sight.
So you must be doing something right !
Something Zen about eating chocolate on a Tuesday afternoon in the middle of nowhere in a pretty dress listening to the howling wind outside. A beautiful and touching video.
Too many people wonder what the point of life or an activity is while losing sight of the present. The experience is the goal, not an end result. I look forward to your videos every week. Such a beautiful soul inside and out.
Love that you almost forgot your own sponsor 😅😂 Ritual sounds awesome.
You're a worthy muse ; ) Keep crushing it Lyss 💛
"Every day, I break another link in the Chain of Expectations that have been put on my shoulders."

Beautifully said, just perfect. ✌
I've followed along your journey since the early days of the first bus build and I must say the growth and development has been astounding......nothing less than an amazing transformation.Personal growth beyond measurement.
That means so much to me mark. Thank you for sticking around all this time. ♥️
I love all of your videos. They all leave me with a warm feeling deep within my heart and make me want to do better. Not because of comparison or any emotion like that but purely due to the honest, real thoughts and emotions you radiate. Thank you! 💛🌻💛
And this is why I love wild spaces and the open road. You captured it so perfectly. The absence of society - no one to tell you what to do or where to go or how to be. The absolute freedom to just be 🤍
Hey. There! Love your channel too. Thanks for supporting Lyss. You both are jewels
Hey Christian!
Yep. What you said. Ditto.
Mitch ✌
Couldn’t have been said better.
but pay your taxes peasant!
I think this lifestyle suited perfectly to people who have a loner personality. Loner enjoys being alone and do what they like alone much of their time. Of course that loner have close friends too, they just don't need someone to bug at them all the time.
Been watching you since before you traveled alone. The choice you make everyday helps me catch my breath. Love your videos!!
Did what you are doing a long time ago; it was the best part of my life. It's great to see and hear from you; you're a very special person.😊
I’m the call sign guy.
I hope you find everything you need for fulfillment. I think certain people are pragmatic and others are introspective. I too went on a sojourn and for folks like you and me who are introspective we must go on our own journey in life. I was the person who was alone in a crowd but also social. I think you know what I mean. I found my peace in skydiving, in the mountains and writing.
My journey was one of profound heart break do to death of my fiancé but many years later I began to date and found my wonderful wife who is my opposite, pragmatic, which is great. She keeps me from shutting out others and embrace a life in a way I never thought I wanted.
Take this time even if if it nearly breaks you. And if you’re like me it is in that you find your soul and what it truly wants. I’m now in my 50’s and I look back and reflect on my youth without regrets and know it was necessary for me to form my life that I cherish today. I will leave this life soon but I did live truly live a life that was unique and full.
So my hope is for everyone to know a life that is truly yours and not scripted even if that life ends sooner than we like.
My prayers are with you.
Beautifully said, Mark.
Good words, Mark. May those seeking, find peace and serenity..
May you live a very long life and enjoy many more years.
Love your videos, your spirit of adventure and your willingness to explore life. A few years ago I was diagnosed with cancer and given a year or two at most. I quit my job, sold most of the stuff I owned, bought a great backpack, camping gear, fishing and hunting gear, some rations and a gun and I went to Alaska for the summer and just walked into the back country. No cell phone, no GPS, just a few maps and a compass. Spent a little over 3 months completely on my own. Figured if I died, what better place to call it quits. I never saw anyone, but I did see a lot of animals. I mostly survived on wild berries, fish I caught and a few rabbits. I never got lonely. I thrived on the peace and quiet and I really learned a lot about myself. Finally, I was ready to go back home so I hiked for two weeks and got back to a town. I eventually came back to the lower 48 and bought a small country cottage and started farming. Shockingly, my cancer had gone away and the doctors had no explanation. I can only assume that the lack of stress and the healthy eating had something to do with it. Now, I grow some crops, sell them at the local farmer's market and I love life. Your videos remind me of the joy I had during that time away. You are an amazing young lady and I admire you so very much. Keep going!
I am never alone. God is always with me. But as far as seeing another human I have spent months without seeing anyone and to be honest I like it that way. I think some of us are built different. Just like some folks like the busy city life and others like the wide open country life. And some are so busy building a life that they forget to live it.
Your videos are kind of like a meditation for me. The music and the insights you share are fantastic. Like Dante on his fictional journey through hell, purgatory to paradise/heaven we see that it is the journey not the destination that matters. The meaning or purpose will become clear somewhere along the path. No need to define that. It will come.
wow, this video is the highest of compliments. Thank you Shaun. I'm really grateful you're here.
@@REGRETLYSS1 thanks. I shared your video on FB with my friends. I also posted how your video meant so much to me given my own challenges and revelations the last few years. You can have a read if you like on my FB page. Take care and I wish many blessings for you on this courageous and joyful journey you are on. Warrior spirit for sure.

Welcome Sue! I'm really glad you're here.

@@ChuckCassadyYT Removing his comments, thanks, Charlie.
@@ChuckCassadyYT Charlie, sending you a private email.
At first this life looked very appealing to me. I would love to see the country and all of its wild places and I love photography. I took in all these videos of van conversions and have followed several people on their journeys but the more I see them the more I'm realizing that it isn't a life for me. As an extrovert the loneliness would get to me. I like quiet time but not for too long. I wish you well on your journey.
Great Video as always Love that Rio uses a stuffed toy as a pillow. Love the personality dogs bring to life. Please continue to have safe travels out there.
I enjoy seeing your adventures, you inspire me! Keep the videos coming. You are insightful and wise beyond your years, and are a deep thinker. ❤️
To answer your question I have gone weeks at a time without seeing another soul. I used to live on an 80 acre hobby farm in the middle of nowhere.
The ending was Great! "Who's telling me I have to work, NOW! NOT ME!" or me? We both have good excuses. Love it!
Yo Rob, how you think she is getting sponsored???? By not working....she is recording, editing, filtering...wake up bro...
@@shandytorok259 Hey, Shandy she just said in her 1st live stream today (7/17/20220) she only films about 50 minutes the entire week for her weekly story, that's a lot less than a 40 hour work week? Plus a few hours for editing. I would guess maybe 4 hours total? That's like being retired like me? Lyss is pretty darn smart!
Good luck and happy trails on the road Lyss! 💖
When I watch these video's, I wonder if I'd get bored living on the road or feel more isolated from life. Then think if I'd actually like more of a minimalist lifestyle with less of the everyday nonsense. I should rent a RV and actually see if how a lifestyle on the road would feel. I'm use to driving for a living this would just be more miles. Well thanks for giving us a glimpse of your world, and love the channel.
Life is short, Bribery Slave, if you feel the calling, go for it while you can. Follow your inner voice. No regrets.
I’ve been hurt by a few girl friends that I loved with all my heart. But they’re not solely to blame. Nobody’s perfect. Including me. And in this day and age it almost feels like the world is crumbling around me no matter what a do😂 might as well enjoy it while we can. Loved the video ❤️⚡️
I just love the flow of your vlogs... refreshingly genuine soul are you... these beautifully shot vignettes unfold in such an organic and unforced pace... and feel like a warm embrace... That being said, Rhea by the bus door wasn't having it ... LOL... Thank You. Love... and Chocolate LOL! Stay Safe.
Good video. well done. keep up the adventures. The answer is obviously simple: "the point is that its a beautiful GAME for your pleasure & experience. Play it, enjoy it & set your own purpose if you wish. Otherwise there is no other purpose than to just LIVE & experience". Yes love is included in the package. Best wishes in your journey & keep up the good work
I have gone a full month without seeing anyone. I didn't have a phone to talk on. I only had a small radio battery ran. I stayed in a tent. I liked living in the forest so much that before I knew it I had been there for 10 years. I have since came out and rented a house and just bought a small piece of property and plan on living off grid with no power or city water both are available. The only power I will have is solar. I am happy to see that their are others like me in this world. It's a breath of fresh air. I'm currently clearing my property off to build my small cabin.
Hi! I'm almost twice your age but, I look up to your philosophies and the wisdom you have earned so far. Great channel.
Your videos never disappoint.
I can’t wait to hear another beautiful story from your unfold 🫶
You asked the question of how long can one be away from humanity. I know that I’ve spent 10 years living off the grid on solar, water, wells, and rough roads. I love solitude, peace, and harmony. Humanity doesn’t offer those as a general rule. You do have to get away from Everyone. I love the wild places and usually only have my dogs with me. They understand me better than any human could ever understand me and yes, I would lay my life down or my dogs. Nowadays, I have a husband that is usually with me, but he’s needing to try to find his own space to be in. The past few years has been really tough on us and him in particular. 2019 on Christmas Eve he lost his mother and we’re trying to keep a store viable since pandemic. I wish him peace and serenity, but he needs to find that in himself before he will let anyone else in. That includes from me. My heart hurts because I love him so much, but I can’t deal with the negativity and let him know nowadays I wish I could run out to the wild places and just get lost and sharing in your life from the road and now your new home it’s like being with a friend who understands me. Thank you, Alyssa for sharing, and I look forward to your videos as it feels like connecting with a friend. And if you ever need a place to stay on your way to the desert, my home is open to you and Rio. Peace to you and Rio.
Thank you Lyss for the topic of solitude. I had to stop working as a mental health practioner 3 months ago, burned out, and I find myself more and more taking steps back so to speak, getting more and more into my safe cocoon of my home. A totally different kind of solitude, but it feels natural and safe to withdraw from people more and more, keeping in touch with my dearest friends and family. But yesterday I started wondering if this could lead into a depression, so I called my friend Eelco and we had a good discussion on this and we both think that solitude /cocooning is a healthy response to the overwhelming years behind me, and it may take some time to stay in solitude and eventually my body/soul/spirit will want to reach out again and come out of the cocoon. Your video helps me to see the healing power of solitude, thanks for that! With love and kindness from The Netherlands, Andre
Lol! I absolutely LOVE how you put that! "I think the reason I love solitude is that I get to wear pretty dresses and eat chocolate in the middle of a Tuesday after noon and no one can tell me otherwise!
Purpose is an utilitarian assembly by step sequence. Life is the joy of living. As you said it Lyss, it is love.
As Alyssa said nothing last forever and then there was you alone. The best friend you have is yourself who will never leave you. In your solitude while enjoying the views and scenes sometimes what if props up to your mind. You long for companionship and community even along the way but it seems it part ways somehow. Just have courage Alyssa and experience your dream till you are young and able. Take care.
Be safe Lyss and stay beautiful❣
Thankyou for taking us on your travels with you. I am a old vet and cannot any more and have forgot how beautiful our country is.Thankyou safe travels
Thank you for watching, and thank you for your service Kevin. Glad you're here!
As I sit and think about all the wonderful content you have just given us, I can't help but see the comments you have received. From fans, supporters, well wishers and loved ones. It seems so many want to answer the question asked of you " What is the purpose of all this?" that was the question to you and I believe you answered if beautifully. However to answer your question to us, " How long have any of you gone without see a single person?"
I have gone two weeks. Two weeks of complete isolation. No people, pets, phone, or enter webs, No facebook, instagram or social media. Just me and all the hobbies that have distracted me from the feelings of being truly alone.
Thank you for sharing and thank you for invoking this response
For someone so young you already have a better understanding of what it is to be human what it is to be your true self than most people three times your age that makes you amazing and I hope you know that
Sometimes silence is all the noise we need. The purpose in all this is to explore and find that which makes you happy. Live in peace and kindness and the universe will reward you with all the love you need.
You are truly a free spirit to follow your dreams of travel & discovery with little Rio. Solitude is a state of mind that needs to be cultivated because it can be frightening (like the unknown). Thank you for sharing this side of your life and also the beautiful scenery. I can't travel because of personal circumstances at the moment, but your channel inspires me and I get to "travel" thru your videos. Safe travels to you and Rio
As I look at the city lights through your windscreen, I feel man's inhumanity to man being played out on the tableau beneath you. It happens every time I see people en masse...hurting others as if it's ok...you both are beautiful spirits and hurt no one and seek only to live your truth. Life is so sad right now. My heart breaks every day. Every time I see RUclips or the telly, I'm brought back to real life and am shattered again. I'd give anything to live like this with my basset hound and just be...no constraints or rules other than to be kind. Thank you sweet girl for your videos. They give me respite.
I like the new intro graphic! Another amazing story, thank you
Thanks again for sharing.... totally feeling the love. Wish you could see how much you are loved!
I believe she sees that in these comments.
I've found your channel while at a crossroads in life, when everything is about to change and I have nothing certain to ground myself, not even a vehicle, and it's really comforting to be living vicariously through you even though I'm watching old video's, because I know I'll have my own bus (again) soon, and all the issues and challenges i'm faced with now will be gone, and of course replaced with new ones, however what's happening now is quite extreme and so I'm greatful to have found your video's because i can escape to the open road a little faster through them, thank you for sharing and please don't stop sharing! your video's are really watchable and unpretentious and your bus build is just stunning, I am far too lazy and impulsive to have the patience for a build like that but damn it's pretty!
this comment means so much. really glad you're here.
"who's telling me to work right now?...NOT MEEE!"
I love that for you, this video brought joy. Thank you.
Up in mountains of Idaho, Montana, Oregon are great for summer. Cool nights and mornings, warm sunny days, rivers, streams and fresh air.
Good for the soul!
Solitude is a beautiful place to be right now. I see why people get tired of living in chaos. I personally couldn't take chaos for to long either.
The greatest journey one can experience, is the journey of self-discovery. Originally from Colorado, I started a journey of my own in 2012. That journey took me on a chase across the country and allowed me to become the man I am today.
I believe every person should take a journey of their own, and take the time to heal, to live, to love, and to grow.
You're doing an amazing job sharing your story. Keep focused on the moment - embrace every one of them, and learn those lessons along the way.
There never needs to be point, the meaning is not needed, the point comes down to personal happiness which is not the same for all
It amazing the love this planet gives it so behind belief, even with us ripping her to shreds
I am an introvert, so my energy comes from being alone
Your a beautiful human and the world needs more beautiful humans.
i just stumbled upon your video scrolling through RUclips and just watching 3 of your videos, thus far, you have brought tears to my eyes and touched my heart🤍
thank you for living the way that you do and being an inspiration✨
I've been putting such physical and mental energy into my calling, and I am surrounded by people who don't want meaningful relationships. I believe that you are a by-product of your environment, yet I still search for my "people," It is lonely and heartbreaking. When you lay yourself out, you put so much into your own journey to find some lackluster energy and care and growth. I've done this for a long time and have naturally become way more independent and comfortable with who I am and will not let things stop me from doing the something that drives me in life. I think what I see here is a person that cares for themselves immensely in their fulfillment. It's one thing to be alone and be truly alone in a room. But I also know people who are deathly afraid of all their loved ones, family members becoming dead and gone, and it is just them left out of that family. I also know people in a crowd of people and yet feel lonely. I am aware I work, dream, and talk on extreme ends, and it's not like I need only influential people to be with and befriend, but I feel my search (active or passive) for my tribe is a loss. And I get too comfortable being alone, and the funny thing is my passion. My calling takes an audience and people to work with. I recently felt connected to a person, only to find they were against my life choice tonight, and it felt more gut-wrenching to me as I have been all-in to my calling for 20 weeks now, and it hurt because I am vulnerable rt now. Vunbeabe, from giving so much of myself and meeting this person, gave me perspective on just how deep I've had to go to pull it out of me and then keep physically pushing more than the week prior. I know the work that lies ahead, and I also know it's worth it. I feel cold when I have to shut off and make zero efforts to make a personal connection or a relationship because that's my realm.
Getting to know strangers is easy, and so is public speaking but personal connections and like minds aren't that easy. Rt now, I a grateful for finding my calling, taking action by moving, and positioning myself to grow through the challenges. There are times when I just want to share it with close people and not hold it in. Be it wins, innovation, or just plan questions. IDK if I think on a higher level, but my focus and determination have made me see so much more, and it's been hard to feel alone, both personally and professionally. To be in uncharted waters and not have one soul to not fall on, but share the journey as I pumped to go through with my clear vision. Idk what is more demanding; building a business or building a business and being alone.
Richard, what you wrote is beautiful and touching on a deep level. Thank you. I believe you are on the right path for you. You know yourself better than anyone. Stay true to that voice inside you and you will be rewarded in time. Until then, be patient, be kind and be gentle with yourself. I wish you all the best in life, Namasté, James
One issue is the random distribution curve (The Bell-shaped curve). It exists in nature and was discovered by mankind. So in a perfect life our friends, family and love interests would fall within the top 10%, the A group or the top 25% the total of the. A&B groups. So, if you have high standards, your close friends will reside in the top 10% however you define it. That means that out of 100 potential love interests you have met, at most 5-10 of them will be to your liking. Divide that number by half because half will not want you. So the reality for most persons is they have 1-5 possible love interests per hundred persons you have a relationship with. Experts say most of us get 1-3 chances to find long-lasting love. The odds are low but, not zero. So what happens is people stop trying, they give up because the odds of success are poor and suffering all of the rejection becomes demoralizing. The best plan is to find success when you are young. As we age generally people become less flexible and less able to make the connections needed to form a love bond. Last point, analysis of the curve points to the fact 75% of people are unsuitable mathematically to start an attempt at love bonding. The mathematics of love are long odds. Thats the source of your frustration. The universe is rigged against you. That's what you are feeling, the power of mathematics affecting your intimate life. Keep moving ahead understanding that success is not guaranteed. Keep your standard high.
Why does there have to be a purpose??....you are a wandering soul in search of life's mysteries and take it one day at a time on your own terms....You do what a lot of folks out there wish they could do..as I have said before ..NEVER apologize for "being" you... we all take different paths in life..this is yours..some are bound by life to stay put,others wander out into life and enjoy what it is to be free
hi lyss , so glad you are having fun and experiencing life , you told me you left the church a decade ago , i just want to know why ? thank you for shareing your life experience on the road ,love and hope the best for you .
no judgement , just wondering ?
A high-tech nomad. Not a bad way to live, at least for a time.
But never forget that thru all of it while your experiences may be singular in nature you are never truly alone. Your vehicle, the electronics by which you communicate with everyone, evinces a simple fact. You are part of a larger community, the human species.
Nobody is ever, truly, alone. Because to become so means one thing, you disappear. Completely. And this channel makes clear that while you may be struggling to come to grips with who your are in your current life cycle this is not something you wish to do.
Good luck to you on your path. A path we're all on.

You are so wise and spiritual. Very few of us ever experiences this true beauty.
I myself had a Rio. Except her name was Lily , a 17 yr. old Beautiful Golden Retriever. Only those of us that have had a relationship with our animals only know the true meaning of LOVE. She was everything to me as I led my life of solitude away from my family and friends. It was my choice to leave the old ....behind and to find a new.....new me. I could have been anyone I wanted to be and live my life in total obscurity. Only to find the one true me after my venture. My prayer for you is that in all of your searching when this adventure comes to a fork in the road, you (with Rio) will exchange glances and she will give you that side eye that we all know, and you will be richer for having had her as your friend and step into another adventure. Love to you.
My best friend and eternal companion was a Border Collie mix Mom let me keep when I was 9 years old. Smartest and truest friend I have ever known.
Well I did 28 days in a wilderness last fall.
I decided to solo a archery hunt.
I admit that it was a challenge mentally and I did encounter a couple other hunters but I learned so much about myself and looking back I wouldn’t trade the experience.
If you ever get tired of the desert, come visit the forests, lakes and streams in northern Michigan.
Living from the heart (spirit,soul etc) shows us who we are.
You are not alone. You have your best friend.
Considering van life in my future. Your vids provide information, support and guidance. Stay safe. Thank you.
So glad they do! Thanks for watching Cynthia.
You're an incredible, beautiful person. Whoever you end up with will be the luckiest man alive
To be at peace with your self is priceless!
It can’t be explained to all the people who are slaves to everything they don’t really want!
Status, money, fame, are nothing compared to being at piece with your self!!!
I agree completely, Stephen.
learning to love ones self and acceptance of who you are that is true Love and when you learn that then you can truly Love another person.
Just found your channel. You seem like one of the realest open most genuine people on this planet. I’m amazed by how open and candid you are. Pretty awesome to see. You make a lot of good points. If you ever need anything I’d be happy to help whether monetary or anything as far as items I could donate. Appreciate your content. You’re living my dream. Stay safe out there and thanks for the inspiration. ❤️
The purpose is to love God and love one another. I enjoy your videos Lyss, thanks for sharing!
Hi from Texas ! You inspire so many people and touch their lives ! I envy your lifestyle you do things that I can only imagine but through you in can still dream of living like a nomad ! Thank You for sharing all of your life’s adventures !!! Please be safe
Love it! You go Woman! Love your shower! Everytime I see it I say I want that!!! I am at the place(the edge) myself, my old van is in the shop, I find out today if they think it is worth fixing if not I move on to the Utility Trailer build where I will put a shower like yours. Thanks for being that light at the end of my tunnel.
Hi Cynthia!! So sorry to hear about your van, but you'll know what the right next step is. Thank you for being a part of my journey. Hope to see you in future videos. ❤
You have got to be one of the best editors and/or director/producer on all of RUclips and I mean that sincerely. I really enjoy some of your cuts and angle shots from the B roll. It brings your videos to life in a subtle yet meaningful way. It’s really special to find someone who can simply live, and live a meaningful way without all the trappings of the material world and doesn’t just rely on her outward physical beauty to gather an audience. At least I was present at the beginning and have been enjoying the ride. Maybe some day you’ll be in The Pacific Northwest and our paths will cross and you will let me buy you dinner and we can regale each other with tales of solo adventures and life will be good lol. So here’s to the horizon and sunrise and back again. Cheers

Other than a few visits to rural feed-stores, I was alone for eight months.

These days, we caravan with long-term chums.
Each of us has a profound need for solitude.
And yet, we intersect on paths of community.
I just wanted to say that I have watched every video that both you and Abi have posted.
Y'all are great.
See you next time.
I really appreciate that Eddie. Hope you've enjoyed the videos :)
I respect you for doing what you have chosen to do in life as far as in the present. I wish you the best and remember to always be safe. Two more things I like your doggy and I think your so beautiful.
I wish that in my life I had met someone that treats me as you treat your dog.
But it wasn't meant to be.
I'm still happy.
Have a good a life.
Enjoy your dog.
Nothing lasts forever, not the good not the bad. Live life and be happy before it’s over
The purpose of all of this is to find balance and to get in touch with yourself and the creator on a more deeper level, like you said LOVE
Something you won’t find living in the city
Blessed Be ❤️💕
Freedom is happiness
The vitamin stuff is a leap of faith because you are trusting that what’s on the website is true lol. And your dig is too cute
This is true! But they have independent studies done linking to outside sources which I appreciate. :)
Nice video. Just stay focused. You are not alone. Just because you can not see someone all the time there is a lot of positive energy around you.And thank God for your dog.that is your best friend and dogs are more human than people realize. Stay safe darling. And injoy your time alone it will not last for ever and you will miss it.you can drive a ways and see people. Think of people stuck somewhere like a island or a boat or in the woods lost for a month. That is what you call alone.
Your life is full of LOVE & a little indulgence….chocolate with no guilt! I enjoy the tranquility of your vlogs Alyssa, take care! 🤗😍🇦🇺
Your dog is awesome! Very smart it seems. My dog Ben is my best buddy. We are hiking, walking, and just hanging out everyday. Safe travels
Smart girl...she knows people have had enough an would love to do what she's doing....gotta love youth....intern she knows she's beautiful....A true youtube money maker.
