Escaping Normal Life in Pennsylvania
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- My name is Erik. I’m a digital nomad traveling around the country in my Subaru Forrester and today I’m escaping normal life in Pennsylvania. My first stop was the famous town of Gettysburg, where one of the bloodiest battles in all of the Civil War happened. I then continued on to Leigh Gorge State Park, the town of Jim Thorpe, the Poconos Mountains, Nayaug Park Gorge, Wenzel's Treehouse, Brooks Coal Mine, the Archbald Pothole and I attempt to swim at 7 Tubs Recreational Area.

Eric, you continue to nail it brother. You moved to the top of my 36 YT favorites
oh damn, ok i’ll take that. thank you! i try to make content i like to see. so i can only hope others get as much out of it as i do making them. thank you for the compliment. that seriously means a lot!
I wish you had stayed longer in Jim Thorpe. Its absolutely ripe in history. The Molly Maguires, hand print in the old jail. So many inventions - lock system, macadam - Josiah White. Its called Jim Thorpe because he is buried there. Town used to be called Mauch Chunk but when the town agreed to have a burial location for Jim Thorpe, they changed the name. Great coal mine museum in Lansford, PA and you can go down into the mine. Its about 15 minutes from Jim Thorpe. So much history. So many beautiful nature spots too. I grew up there and was my stomping grounds for many years. You want a view and a bit of an adventure, ride the train and when you go over the trestle, you’ll be in awe.
oh wow- no i didn’t know all that about Jim Thorpe. makes me wish i would have explored the town more now. PA was really nice. given more time- i would have loved to check out more places there. the coal mine sounds really cool
thanks for watching and commenting!
Good time of day to you Erik. I was driving behind you when you pulled IN to 7 tubs on Sunday. Thank you for visiting Luzern county. Hope you come by again and visit Frances Slocum State Park and some delicious ice cream at Lands at Hillside Farms. Again thank you for visiting!! Safe Journey!!
hey!
yeah, i was bummed to have to turn around at 7 Tubs. i bet that was a fun place to visit. i’ll definitely be back in the area. there’s so much more to see there!
thanks for watching and commenting!
Great video and lots of neat little towns.
thank you! PA was amazing!
Hey, I am planning my own trip across the country after seeing your first video on it and it's cool to see you go to my own backyard. I've been all over Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and I feel like can only see the same few places and small 1500 foot mountains so many times before I start to get bored of it and want to get out. The Poconos are great, but they're just not really comparable to what is out West and a lot of people never realize it until they actually see some of those places out there firsthand.
hey!
yeah, the Poconos were nice. i’m glad i went, however, i’ve been lucky and been out west and even more north- so it wasn’t the kind of mountains i thought i might see. nice area though.
Good luck on your trip! it’s a biiiig country. lots to see! enjoy and escape normal life while you can!
Great to see a video from you Erik. Sorry you missed out on the Seven tubs, that sounded amazing and I even stopped and looked it up. The only thing I ever really knew about the Poconos was the abandoned hotels/resorts that are there. I agree an Amish market sounds amazing, I know there are others in Ohio, Illinois and Iowa you can also check out. Or revisit Pennsylvania at some point, it doesn't have to be a one and done deal as you drive through. I think Pennsylvania is a beautiful state and look forward to exploring it someday myself. Enjoy your time in New York state. Its incredible there, definitely take all the back roads and enjoy the quaint small towns/old citys.
Look forward to your next video.
hey Chuck!
thanks man
yeah, PA was really nice. got to see some great places there. Can’t wait to show you what i saw in NY. really loving it here!
Very cute town.
it was!
Hey buddy! Good to see you on here, will definitely watch some of your coming and past videos! Your thumbnails look awesome btw!
thanks man!
think i’m gonna check out that other lake to sleep at tonight. mix it up a bit.
hope you guys got to see the REAL Woodstock! later!
🤦♂️also Hickory Run Boulder Field is worth a visit if you’re local.
I could eat that everyday too
it’s so easy to make!
Come to kenya 🇰🇪

one of these days i hope to!
What is a digital nomad?
fair question- it’s the term given to anyone who works remotely (online) but doesn’t live in a house or apartment
