➡ ABOUT ME
My name is Crosby and I am a freelancer and blogger currently working remotely and traveling the USA in a travel trailer with my boyfriend, Dylan! After a few corporate jobs throughout college, I quickly realized that the 9-5 lifestyle wasn’t for me. So I built up my freelance business, saved a bunch of money, and went on a 2-month Colorado road trip where I lived in my car while traveling and working remotely. Now, I’m traveling full-time in a travel trailer and sharing everything I learn on RUclips!

Rode my motorcycle through Big Sur numerous times. Never get tired of the beauty
My old stomping grounds, born in Carmel lived in Carmel Valley for 50 years. Brings back great memories.
That’s amazing! What a beautiful place to live
Where r u located now , sir ?
We visited Big Sur yrs ago when I was 15 and instantly fell in love with its majestic beauty. Thank you guys for taking me back to the sweetest spots Big Sur has to offer! But nothing can match actually being there and smelling the sea air, hearing the unmatchable sounds of the sea and its wildlife so present around you, and seeing it all from its nearby tall redwoods to its ocean's powerful presence. There's honestly nothing quite like it anywhere on the planet! Again, many thanks!!!
My fav Julia Pfeiffer Burns and McWay Falls, thanks for sharing 👍 ❤.
Today , my son has planned to take us to this awesome 😎 place , from SF , by car .
Headed here in two weeks! Thanks for the info and the video. Excited to hit a few of these spots.
Great job guys. BEAUTIFUL places you visited
love your videos! Nice editing. Thank you for the tips. your Yosemite video brought me here ☺️
Absolutely love this. Your channel stays on repeat on my tv. Such good production and I love all the hiking destinations.
Oh my gosh thank you!! So glad you’re enjoying the videos 🥰
Thanks for sharing the great video and your travel experience!!!
Julia Pfeiffer is the best at sunset in October! Truly breathtaking! Sunset is life changing there!
Thank you for making this!
I've been living in California my whole life and never once heard about this place until I started looking at pinterest a few months ago for places that I wanted to visit in 2024. I was scrolling through and saw this place and decided to look into Big Sur and was very interested so now it's on my list of places I want to visit this year.
No one I know has ever been to this place so I'm hoping to inspire them by going there first lol. I'm not sure when to make my visit but I definitely plan to visit sometime this year though. The view is just stunning and breathtaking.
This is so fun and helpful in just setting the vibe for my upcoming trip up the PCH. Thx!
Glad to hear it! Have fun!
Great video, thank you for helping me plan my trip to Big Sur!
ESALEN - very new agey. Scenery unsurpassed.
Bucket List 🪣 one of these days!! Beauuuutiful video! Thanks 😊
Amazing video 😀 love it so much. Thanks for sharing all your great tips. Definitely want to see Big Sur and explore this incredible coastline ❤️
Thank you!! I hope you get to experience it yourself someday!
8:27 gas stop at River Inn Motel..... Walk behind motel...a few feet to the river there are multiple wooden chairs and seats IN the river which is wading depth. ABSOLUTELY IDYLLIC. You can grab a lunch, walk in the river to a chair and eat..kids frolicking and with buckets and shovels. It's WONDERFUL. July 2022
U know where every1 should go Barcelona 🇪🇸 Spain so beautiful n good
Beautiful Place!
Love your video,great job...
Such a cool stretch of the country! Really well done video, love your camera work and B-Roll, 👍
Thank you!! That means a lot. Glad you enjoyed the vid
I’m Brazilian living here in the Bay Area. I’m enjoying your content, great tips!
AmaZing that was so cool
So glad you liked it!
That was beautiful 🤩
I live in calif. , but i love seeing it through your eyes
I'm gonna be passing this area on my bike tour in few days. Thanks for heads up. 👍🙂
Ah that’ll be so amazing! We saw a few bikers and were soo jealous
We've never heard of Big Sur! Looks amazing, great video!
Thank you!!
Indeed, very few gas stations there and the ones that you are able to find, gas prices are abusively high. I went to Big Sur two years ago coming from downtown L.A., and what saved me from getting stranded was my hybrid Rav4's long range (560 miles full tank / 40mpg). I was not aware of this 11 mile passage you mentioned. I will have to give it a try again. Big Sur is a must go for all Californians!
Old Coast Road was incredible!! Definitely recommend it if you go back
nice drone shots, that's the main reason I want to go!
beautiful
Taking my fam in two weeks. Visiting from Argentina. Thanks so much for such a great video. Will let you know once we come back. Promise to follow all your recos. Cheers.
Have the best time!!
omg amazing video......
Very nice video. Very visually pleasing. Particularly enjoyed your drone shots
Glad to hear it!
@@CrosbyGraceTravels BTW, we have been in big sur 6-7 times and have never seen blue sky like this. Mostly foggy. Often we cant even see half of the bixby bridge. You got really lucky
@@b3arwithm3 I felt SO lucky! It was such a perfect day
Omg heaven❤
All awesome stops! I’m excited to check out old coast road on my next trip this august!
Enjoy!!
I loved this whole video, the shots of the bridge, the amazing tips about where to go, and the crazy gas situation! I love Pfieffer Beach, glad you guys went!
Thanks girl!!
I am really like the coloring of your video
Gratitude's!
I’m doing a 15 day campervan trip from my home in the bay all the way to Zion and GC and back. Maybe Yosemite if it isn’t crowded
I’m planning 3 days for Big Sur. It’s the most similar place to Hawaii that I know of here.
Great video!! You seem very excited 😊 👍🏽
Redwoods is wayyy more like Hawaii
Amazing video i loved it . Big Sur its a place . Once in life i want to visit & explore . Thank you Crosby Grace Travels for sharing a beautiful video . Lots of love from india .
So glad you enjoyed! I hope you can visit someday, it really is incredible
@@CrosbyGraceTravels Yes!! Once in my life I will visit BIG SUR . Thank for your response and please do more & more video I really love your videos . Nice to meet you .
@@nitheeshbatta2780 I’m so glad! Great to meet you too :)
It’s been on my bucket list also, finally going in August. I’ll have 10 days along the coast, so definitely spending 2 days in Big Sur.
How was it?
@@J-ZIM I didn’t make it, I spent the 10 days in Utah visiting the 5 national parks and the Grand Canyon. Which was epic, as I got to climb angel’s landing. Planning on California in the spring, thanks for asking.
@@jeremyking3986 nice!
Thanks for sharing, did that trip several years ago...🌊🌊🌊🌊 Big Sur us magnificent. 🇺🇸😎often the best hidden gems are off the beaten hwy.s'...on America's side roads.
Magnificent is the perfect description! I totally agree - there are so many hidden gems on the side roads
Big Sure and Pfeiffer state park and beach are very easy to access comparing to Yosemite or Taho lake, I very much liked to travel where
Those dears were probably like who the hell are these people stalking us lol. Sorry about the gas prices....welcome to California. $6 is steep though. Haven't seen it that high here in the Bay Area. We hate all the taxes we get hit with living here. That waterfall at 10:03 was pretty cool. Great footage all around!
I know I felt so bad for the deer hahah!! And yep our wallets are definitely feeling the Cali gas prices. Thanks so much for watching!
I just watched like 15 vids with all these views and yours with 7k is better than all of them
Thank you!! Appreciate that :)
Nice video, sister.
Hope you all enjoy the video!! I’m curious - which spot would be at the top of your list if you came to Big Sur?!
Simple 101 route because its easy and absolutely amazing
Most def the bridge!! Iconic! Huge fan of Big Little Lies too 🙋🏼♀️🥰 love your channel! ☺️
So beautiful to see again. Been some time since I was there.What is the music playing whilst driving along old coast road at Bixby Bridge.cheers. Rog. Pacific sunset records.
You had amazing weather! What time of year did you go? I'm heading there in September. I love Big Sur. I can't wait to get back.
Dylan: “like a mountain goat” My brain: *flashes back to him falling down with the camera in his hands* 🤣 love this video though! I am dyyyying to explore more of California!
HAHA girl I know... I was like pls let this end well. So glad you like the vid!
Let's not talk about that haha
@@DylanGorman 🤣🤣🤣🤣 neverrrrr
You were brave to take that road with all of the trails that are not maintained and are closed half way in. I BET you had the whirlies doing it 😅
Great video guys. Did you ever have any issues with people or rangers when you’re flying your drone ?
Nope none at all!
You should do one about SANTA CRUZ and places around 🍻
I was at that beach probably 4 times and I traveled from russia, hope I can see it again
Which month is gud to go there? Any idea?
Awesome! Big Sur is untouched nature! I wanted to ask on how can I take such cool drone shots in these places? Should I be part 107 licensed?
Drone flying over the Marine Sanctuary is illegal.... she is breaking the law in this video...
U should go to Hawaii ❤
Surprised gas was that cheap actually. The one spot I stopped when driving that area of the PCH was $9/gal…..in 2019.
To be fair it was at a restaurant on the coast that caught all of its food daily. Sometimes the price is worth the experience.
What kind of drone do you use?
Don't go in Summer. Early Spring is not crowded, best weather, and prettiest because its all lush and green.
Just did this trip. Highley recommend doing the PCH in the Febreuary/ March / April Months. There is Very Little traffic. Dont have to make any reservations at hotels or places to eat. Summer time is stupid busy with traffic / people congestion.
👍👍👍👍
I'll be in big sur on 27 august:) someone else there?
Native Californian and avid SCUBA diver of the Big Sur coast. It's my favorite spot on earth! Just a little thing, but San Simeon isn't pronounced "Sim-ee-OHN" it's "Sim-ee-un." Also, I saw a lot of drone shots. It's illegal to fly drones over the ocean along the entire Big Sur coast. It's protected from aircraft and drones to protect the wildlife, specifically from flushing birds from their nests that are along the cliffs along the coastline. May not seem like a huge deal, but it really is ecologically.
8:57 Big Sur has only one gas station, so fill up in Carmel!
macOS Big Sur brought me here
Old Coast Road is beautiful. I recommend never taking it on a motorcycle. I prayed so hard that we come out alive. Are you serious - you went there without having a full tank of gas. If you don't get gas in Big Sur Village, it's a long way to another gas station. :-) Hurry back. So much to see and do and always different in different light.
Lets get real. You need to go back there and do another show.
What month was this filmed?
Beginning of June!
@@CrosbyGraceTravels Thank you!
Watch out for them collapsing roads…….
I cant believe people gave this video thumbs down! dang haters!
This was possible in one day? 😱
Yes! Everything it relatively close to each other. We did it all in about 6 hours
It's reported that the big sir law enforcement does drugs in their truck reportedly reportedly seen
Less of you please. More of the beautiful countryside
absolutely boring
