EDIT: if you liked this video you should check out the Live Laugh Larry podcast on youtube or wherever you listen to podcasts 😆 Hey everyone! I just wanted to add a quick disclaimer right off the bat: I brought my phone with me to film (it's the camera I use for all videos) and for emergencies (dad has a heart condition and also life happens sometimes). My phone was on airplane mode with the wifi and bluetooth turned off the entire trip :) I hope you all have a great day and thanks for watching!! :)
That’s actually cheating (in a good way though) but I’m glad you caught the fairy! 😅 Just kidding, I really enjoy watching your videos. They always make me happy.
You have become one of my favorite content creators, so quickly. I don't have many people that I immediately click on videos for anymore, but the energy you give off is exactly what I need. And your dad at the end 😭 so sweet!!!
Makari, it's borderline criminal to make a video with scenery that beautiful, and the hilarious banter with your dad but only 13 minutes. Need an hour long special 😂
Your dads song honestly made me tear up, especially the line “we’re best friends” - so clear through your relationship! He should consider making an album! X
Hi ! I found the song on the channel of Makaris dad. It's "Hockey Bus Memories: On the Road Again" and the channel is "Larry espe". There's many others song, enjoy !
Crying happy tears at this gentle loving video. My dad would’ve turned 61 yesterday had he survived his own traumas and his struggle with alcoholism. I don’t have a lot of safe memories with him, but one that makes me miss him is hiking up in Alaska together. I sometimes still feel him when it snows like that, how it did by the waterfall. I’m glad he’s at rest and can try again in a new life, but I also really miss having a father. This was really beautiful and healing to watch and I’m so happy for you two. May you have many many manyyy more happy trips together 🤍🥹
Just wanted to say, i've had the shittiest year. And i was lost in a vortex of depressing content, ranging from true crime to politics, to drama channels. Finding your channel brought back a lot of positivity to my internet, it's like a warm hug. You keep it real, it's not all sunshine and rainbows but, there's so much good things about life. As i try to crawl out of my depression, your content feels like a lifeline of how things could be. Thank you, Makari!
I have been estranged from my biological father for roughly 14 years, so please believe me when I say, you have a really great dad. Please cherish him while you can and give him a hug for me 🥹
I haven't seen my Dad in about the same amount of time. Growing up we were very close, but he changed and treated me in a way I couldn't accept. Videos like this make me wish that hadn't happened.
Sending you so much love. This MSG broke my heart 😩 I've had a push and pull relationship with my dad growing up but we're finally learning to accept and cherish each other without expectations now. 🥹
I have two young daughters and watching how wholesome your relationship is with your dad makes me tear up thinking my girls will be like that with their dad someday :')
This makes me happy and sad at the same time. Sad because I don't really have a good relationship with my parents. We're so different and they caused me so much trauma by the way the raised me (or the lack of actually raising me) I cannot have a conversation that lasts longer than 5 minutes with them because we have absolutely nothing to say to each other. But I hope that I can build such a relationship with my own children so we can do such amazing things together one day.
I just want say you dont know how this video impacted me it’s just kind of magical it may sound dramatic but the amount of good energy this video has it made me think more about life and how im sitting in my room worrying about my body and how i look and being insecure while life is much more bigger Thank you ❤
I found myself grinning like an idiot throughout this and then was caught out with tears at your dad's sincerity at the end. What a wonderful use of the internet!
I lost my Dad ten years ago. I'm so glad we had experiences like this. Spend time with your loved ones and let yourself be really present for them. You won't regret it.
I don’t know which I love more; the amazing countryside or your adorable relationship with your dad. Road trips like this with my daughters is definitely on my bucket list.
What a warm, beautiful, genuine video. Your friendship with your dad is so apparent. Also I was cracking up every time we heard the sweet little dad alarm clock then the dramatic music as you took off your eye mask 😭 New sub and can’t wait to explore more of your stories!
I can't even put into words how likeable you two are - especially with your identical smiles. With parents like that, only a great person could be born!
So beautiful to see how close you are with your father. And I even had tears in my eyes because your father said it so beautifully at the end. Your youtube channel is my favorite 😊
Your relationship with your dad is so friggin precious ❤ it’s so heartwarming watching all the videos w you guys. Thank you for sharing a snippet into your world
Wanted to make a comment along the lines of “This made me cry. Thanks.” But apparently everybody cried a little. My dad was mostly absent in my childhood, I am happy I have any relationship with my dad and we will probably never have a relationship like this. And even if he never left, for us to have this kind of relationship would require of him to be a completely different person. But if he never left, I would never have my sibblings from both my parents further relationships. It is bittersweet how life has worked out and this makes me hopefull, once all of our collective parents will be gone, we the children will have each other in one form or another.
I am in tears with his message at the end omggggg. It's SO lovely to see a dad so involved with his kid and it's clear that he loves you so much. I am older than you are Makari, and had a very close bond with my dad for many years. Unfortunately things changed a while ago, and now I live very far away from him. We are not close like before. This really tugged at my heart strings but I'm so happy you get to do this together.
The wholesome moments between your dad and you in this video make me love and miss my dad. Going to give him a call now to tell him that I love him. ❤ I love your videos!
I was smiling throughout the video. It is such a dreamy, wonderful clip-so amazing. Great job on the content, filmography, editing, and music choices. It was like watching a short movie. I really loved it.
I love it, started watching it in the morning and waited whole day thinking about it to finish it…😆 Love the relationship between you two! Felt like I was with you whole time
I started tearing up at the end thinking about how special it is that you're spending all this time with your dad. It's so very uplifting, and makes me want to treasure my time with my parents and make lasting memories like these. Thank you for sharing ♥
I stumbled upon this channel just now through RUclips recommendations, and I must say, it’s incredibly wholesome to watch. It makes me yearn for a road trip with my dad, free from the distractions of phones, just the two of us in a beautiful setting.
Amazing video. I used to travel a lot with my dad, back in the days, when we didn't had internet anyways. This video reminded me a lot of him and our adventures together
I loved everything about this video. The landscapes, no phones, the peace, the adventure. It inspires, it is funny, you and your dad are amazing and I love your relation. Also the edit… Everything!!!!
Oh this is so wholesome! I love your videos because it is where my roots are. I was born in Port Hardy and most of my family (biological, i am adopted - 60's scoop) and my adopted dad is from Port Hardy and grew up there. My grandma lived at 2378 Cranmore Rd Victoria BC V8R1Z4 - we said good bye to her nearly 8 years ago. My most favourite memory of all time was on the trip where we said good bye to her. My mum and dad and I went for a walk on the back lanes of Oak Bay and we came across an apple tree and my mum picked me a crisp fresh apple, so I was eating this fresh crisp apple while smelling the beatiful Canadian trees which had just been rained on.
Thanks for making me have to hold back tears while I am at work watching this lol. I LOVE your adventures with your Dad, such great memories. As someone who lost their Dad...appreciate every moment!!
For the past 6-8 months, your channel has been my comfort place on RUclips. I absolutely love all your videos and watch them without ever getting bored. I really admire, and honestly envy, the bond you have with your dad. Great video-not a single minute wasted!
You have very quickly become my favorite RUclipsr. Your dad is a gem and I can't wait for you two to pick up Live Laugh Larry again, if you ever will. What a fantastic video.
great bonding with your dad on an old school trip with no phones and only maps for direction. great memories created. hope to see the whole family doing this kind of trip. good luck and keep safe always.
I just took a trip with my dad and brother. First time for all of us, as we are all middle aged or better. Your trip’s wholesomeness is what I was hoping for from my trip. I have a better relationship with my kids than my dad has with his and I look forward to adventures with them more than ever. Thanks for all of your content!
EDIT: if you liked this video you should check out the Live Laugh Larry podcast on youtube or wherever you listen to podcasts 😆
Hey everyone! I just wanted to add a quick disclaimer right off the bat: I brought my phone with me to film (it's the camera I use for all videos) and for emergencies (dad has a heart condition and also life happens sometimes). My phone was on airplane mode with the wifi and bluetooth turned off the entire trip :)
I hope you all have a great day and thanks for watching!! :)
i'm honestly glad you said this, since i was a bit worried about not having a phone for emergencies :)
That’s actually cheating (in a good way though) but I’m glad you caught the fairy! 😅 Just kidding, I really enjoy watching your videos. They always make me happy.
And that end had me bawling. Wow. Thanks for sharing your wholesome relationship ❤
Makari, it was borderline criminal this was only 13 mins. The amazing views and the banter with your dad deserves an hour long special 😂
wise decision. you'll never know when emergency situation happens.
The last video your dad took and said this is the coolest thing I've ever gotten to do with my kid, made me tear up instantly
Same. He's officially the best dad on the internet @makariespe
Us too... My partner has a very absent father
same
Me to.
Wow the end really got to me too
Imagine the feeling of accomplishment when your fully grown daughter asks if you wanna join her for a father-daughter road trip.
Right??!!!❤
I don't wanna be mean but isn't that common?
I have never seen such a beautiful example of a wholesome relationship between daughter and father this is awesome
Makari's dad is out here healing all our father wounds ❤
Your dad as an alarm clock was my favorite recurring bit. ❤
💯
Here I was just vibing and bopping along and your dad has me burst into tears in the last 30 seconds. So sweet.
😆😆
You have become one of my favorite content creators, so quickly. I don't have many people that I immediately click on videos for anymore, but the energy you give off is exactly what I need. And your dad at the end 😭 so sweet!!!
I completely agree! Her content always brightens my day!
same here I just found this channel and now I'm binging
Thank you so much!!
Makari, it's borderline criminal to make a video with scenery that beautiful, and the hilarious banter with your dad but only 13 minutes. Need an hour long special 😂
True!!
😆
Thanks for sharing your special times with your dad with us all. Your dad is pure gold. You both are!
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Your dads song honestly made me tear up, especially the line “we’re best friends” - so clear through your relationship! He should consider making an album! X
Dad get on it!!
I second this!!! 🤗
I loved his song, the adaptation of the lyrics, and his voice!
honestly such a good voice and song! It took me til halfway through to realise it was your dad
Hi ! I found the song on the channel of Makaris dad. It's "Hockey Bus Memories: On the Road Again" and the channel is "Larry espe". There's many others song, enjoy !
don't you ever stop this dad's vlogs
You're so lucky to have a relationship like that with your dad. How awesome to so genuinely enjoy each other's company
“This is your quiet meditative alarm clock” 😄
imagine having a great, kind dad to do something like this. so happy for you.
The most wholesome channel on RUclips. It's like drinking a warm cup of cocoa 😊
It is also like eating a slice of fresh cake, or swallowing a rich chocolate truffle and letting it melt in your mouth. 😋🤤😊
your dad's little speech at the end made me cry, you guys are so wholesome and sweet!! thanks for inviting us along to your journey

I was on the brink of tears for 10 minutes and then your sweet little dad just had to make a cute little clip
I have been estranged from my biological father for roughly 14 years, so please believe me when I say, you have a really great dad. Please cherish him while you can and give him a hug for me 🥹

Only half of the video in and OMG your relationship with your father is so healthy and heartwarming, your dad's message at the end got me tearing up
I'm convinced that your dad is the best human ever.
I have two young daughters and watching how wholesome your relationship is with your dad makes me tear up thinking my girls will be like that with their dad someday :')

This video is like a ray of sunshine in the middle of a storm. Thank you being like this, Makari.

"Mom says I havent been snoring lately"
"Mom loves you a lot"
😄😄😄😄
Oh dear, you two are just adorable! Loved the idea, the trip and I even teared up with that final message from your dad! Absolutely adorable!!

I shouldn't be crying with this video. But I'm a dad now, I can't help it.
I'm not crying, you're crying! (dad video) This reminded me of the trips Dad and I had together. Very happy for you guys!
