In This video: we travel within Quebec Province in Canada, from Montreal all the way to the edge of their civilization. We talk about why Canadians mostly live south of their country - so close to the American crossing, even though Canada is massively large. We also try some French foods

I am a Quebecer, retired history teacher.
I’ve seen partial good answers here: too cold, little or no infrastructure, land of mines and forestry. All that is true.
But at the outset, it must be remembered that the first settlers who settled in the region at the end of the nineteenth century found little fertile land there, therefore not very conducive to agriculture. We are on the Canadian Shield, a huge block of igneous rock, hence the mining. The low fertile soil combined with a short growing season for fruits and vegetables, and mountainous land made it difficult for farms to feed families.
Essentially, a population does not develop much in a region if it cannot ensure its food security.
Also, almost all the cities in Canada are on large bodies of water or rivers (= transportation). In addition to the much colder weather further north - don't forget to mention THE BUGS. Awful, awful bugs. When you aren't freezing your butt off, you are being eaten alive by bugs....just nasty.
@@floyd2222 There are many rivers everywhere in the north ; those were used for centuries by the First Nations. There was even later the Fur Road, a boat waterway that connects Tadoussac to Hudson Bay. Travellers (trade agents) used it to travel to regions where fur animals were abundant. They could move from one trading post to another, meeting the First Nations people with whom they exchanged. If people had had the need to go establish communities further north, they could have used those.
Also, there was flies probably everywhere north of the Saint-Laurent river during colonisation days. It's a known fact that it was at least the case in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region. Only the recent use of pesticides during the last fifty years reduced it for tourisme reasons in the Laurentides... It is true that black flies season in May and June was really unbearable, I was working near Mont-Tremblant during summers in the 1970's, but first settlers had no choice if they needed the land for important establishment. Since the population was small, they didn't and we still don't today.
The main reason northern Quebec is empty is because it is mostly Native land. Indigenous people take care of the land which is why northern Quebec is empty. In other provinces, you will see that that the north is developed. Most Canadians live in large cities which happen to be near the border. Most Canadians live in southern Ontario because it is the warmest part of Canada. There are fewer Canadians living in the north due to the amount of rivers and lakes that form Canada. Canada has over 2 million lakes (too many to get an accurate count) . It makes it hard to put in highways and railways in the north.
In eastern Canada there is little to no fertile soils that far north, being mostly rock. But if you come out west, there is lots of fertile soil in the nothing, but there is far too much water. Northern Manitoba and Saskatchewan are nothing but millions of lakes, Alberta has lots of Forrest, and in fact, you can still get free land by way of the Homestead act. You have to clear the land and erect permanent structures but you can still get a homestead. The biggest problem, apart from the animals, is the very short growing season. PLUS, a distinct lack of infrastructure, social supports and civilization, but you can get a homestead. Now, with Global warming being a thing the weather might not be as nasty as it was when I was a kid, but you're sill Going to see -50 periodically and there won't be a gas line and electricity to your homestead, so you'll be living a 19th century lifestyle. Those are the biggest reasons for not living north of 200 mile mark. Now there are cities north of 200 miles, but they are not nearly the size of cities in the south. The same for Alaska. Things simply cost more the further North you go. The weather gets colder, the summers get shorter, and then there is the seasonal days. The sun stays up longer in the summer, and shorter to almost nonexistent in the winter. And the absolute biggest issue for people in the far north, SAD or Seasonal Affective Disorder. Because the sun, I the winter is almost nonexistent, you basically have several months of darkness, if affects a person mentally to the point of going into a deep depression. People try to combat I with special lamps that give off full spectrum light in order to combat that depressive disorder. But really, those lamps don't always work, and there is only one way to prevent it. Don't live so far north. But in western Canada, there is a lot more Northern communities than in the east, we're more open minded.
@@oculusangelicus8978If you carefully read my comment and the others that I posted under, they were only about here and I did so because his video is taking place here, on Quebec territory.
Everything you wrote is great. I don't think it concerns my commentary though. If not already done, you should post it directly under the video for everyone to read.
One thing : I don't really understand why you finish your commentary by saying "we're more open minded"... Frankly, I don't know if you want to be offensive or not but if so, it's totally uncalled for !
Despite our differences, we should honor that wherever they came from or whenever they came here and despite all the flaws of colonization, all of our ancestors were all brave, resilient and somehow... open-minded.
Fellow Canadian here that has lived in 4 Provinces. The answer you are looking for is population indifference. Canadas population doesn’t support remote infrastructures, industry and habitation. It can get pretty brutal with the winters. So I would say climate, population proximity to amenities, and impossible terrain is why you won’t find people living in remote places in Canada. Great video, great content, you are a delight to watch. Thanks for the adventure. You’ll like Old Quebec.
Canadians would live there if they were allowed.
As a fellow Canadian, I’d say you nailed it, it would be nice to see more growth and prosperity, but we live in a huge, beautiful country 🍁🥰
Also maybe the bears loll
That's why the massive Punjab, Paki invasion to Canada is helping to change all that empty land into an overpopulated third world country , isn't Great .
Land is inhabited by Indigenous Peoples.
This is the Best CAMPER channel on RUclips .
And man THESE vlogs are PURE GOLD .
Arselan IS The man.
I just discovered your channel yesterday and I must say, it's not just the car videos I watched with excitement, it is your drive to adventure and your charisma that shines through in every video. I am 66 years old now and have settled down, but when I was your age, I was like you, I traveled the world, I slept in odd places, I lived in different countries and even though it was sometimes very uncomfortable, I wouldn't want to miss any of it. You are doing what I loved to do, and it is with much pleasure for me to feel like I am young again and even though only on screen, being part of your adventures. I am looking very forward to your new journey, traveling the world and discovering new cultures. You rock Arslan, I am so glad I found your channel.
Missing those cooking vids. I honestly don’t want you to give up on the car camping aspect as that was the main reason for me subscribing but I’m here watching & supporting you till the end, stay safe bro!
@gamerslust6533 He has a right to a bit of a break sometimes. We all need one whether we live in a car or a house! He can't please all of the people all of the time. As long as he is safe is the main importance!😊👍🧡
nah, this is good
from solo living in a camper
to traveling and getting to know how others lives
i think this is what you call character development
I appreciate your willingness to go beyond comfort zones to have this awesome adventure!
I hope you keep doing this series in other countries, be well and stay healthy!
Technology is advancing. But mankind remains more or less the same: greedy and selfish.
So, the 1st principle in travelling alone is to keep alert for own safety as far as possible🙏
@@cathylee7355 province of quebec is abnormaly not dangerous theres no need to be on alert i swear
It’s always a better day when Arslan uploads 🙏🙌💥🫶😀
Above Montreal, in the northern regions of Québec, there is actually less human settlement, and there are several reasons for this:
1. climate: the northern parts of Québec have a subarctic and arctic climate, which means very cold winters and short summers. Such conditions are less attractive for most people as they make life and economic activities more difficult.
2. access and infrastructure: Northern Québec is very remote and has less developed infrastructure. There are fewer roads, airports and other transportation options, making access to these areas difficult.
3. economic activities: Economic activities in northern Québec are mainly focused on mining, forestry and energy production, which do not require a large permanent population. Agriculture is hardly possible due to the climate and soil conditions.
4. indigenous communities: Many of the people living in the northern regions belong to indigenous peoples. These communities often live in small, scattered villages and have traditional ways of life that are less reliant on urban lifestyles.
These factors combine to make the northern part of Québec far less populated than the more southerly, more urban areas such as Montreal and Quebec City.
Thanks Google
@@petemalelis3037 Wrong, thanks ChatGPT and that is still more than you have contributed...
@@chrish9388 contribution...right
@@petemalelis3037 Yes, you should give it a try
So...were indigenous ppl pushed further into those areas showing less population, away from Montreal?
The reason no one lives in this area is because... the black flies are 62 pounds and can lift you up in the air
So freaking right! 🤣🤣🤣
The soap in hour hair was cracking me up lol - gotta stash it 😂😂😂❤
🤣
That was good! 😂😂😅

A Canadian here. The often-quoted statistic is that 90 percent of Canadians live within 100 miles (160 KMs) from the US border. It makes sense. To live, you need infrastructure (water, electricity, etc), schools, medical care, etc. You can't live in the middle of the forest far from everything and have all of these things. So places where people live (cities/villages, etc) are built adjacent to other cities/villages. People just naturally move a short distance from another piece of civilization, and slowly expand outwards. City planning works the same way. The city just naturally expands outwards from the center. There are remote villages in Canada in the far north, and it is difficult to make it work because everything has to be flown in or driven many, many KMs/miles to get there. It's just too hard to have many places dotted in the middle of nowhere. And now, I will make another pitch for you to visit Ottawa, Canada's capital (and where I currently live). It's great for tourists, a beautiful atmosphere, and LOTS of history here to share with viewers.
The indigenous population who lived in those remote regions were doing perfectly fine until the British arrived and killed 90% of them with disease and guns, and took control of the land so the remaining 10% couldn't hunt or fish anymore, making them dependent on farm food that has to be flown in.
I almost did a spit take when you played that clip of you zip lining and screaming 😂😂😂
Love this Canada series. One never knows when one may want to move to another country. ❤
I can’t believe you were standing in the people mover thing lol
I love how kind you are to others… the way you let other roll the candy
When you brought back the scream on the last episode i cackled all over again 😂
S A M E 😂
He yelled like a girl! He is a feminine type of a guy😉
I laughed so hard my stomach hurt🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the video's with your car, the cooking etc. But this travelling is just as nice! I go on holiday through you ❤
I drove my campervan across Canada and back in 2018-2019. I never once used a gym membership to shower. I went to community recreation centers - generally sponsored by the cities and towns I visited. They typically have weight rooms, fitness classes, swimming pools, skating rinks, etc. There is a one time "Drop In" fee (generally around $5 Canadian - or sometimes less or even free if you just request a shower only) and, if a place was too small for a recreation center, there was usually an outdoor swimming pool which always has showers prior to swimming and, although cold water is sometimes the only available shower, they get you clean. Good luck :D
BTW, you don't always have to be staying in a campground (municipal or private) to use a coin-operated shower but, wherever you're showering in Canada, bring a little shower bag with you (shampoo, razor, soap, etc.) and a towel.
Happy for the new content of traveling and exploring new places. Stay safe. 🙏🏼🥰✨🌟
Love your content. Thank you for sharing. I will be planning a trip to Canada soon, thanks to your videos!!!
Hey Arslan! I have been watching your vids for a bit now. I have always found you and what you do fascinating. I have to say that now that you are being much more adventurous, I admire your ambition to explore more and travel, especially being a self proclaimed introvert. Look forward to seeing more with you. Good luck! 🙋🏼♀️👍👏✌️
I’m enjoying your switch in direction, and your travels into Quebec is a great first step!
Your videography and editing skills, and your storytelling, are excellent. I do love your "camping" videos, but I"m willing to give this new series a chance.
That was a beautiful trip, thanks for taking us along.
As a canadian i can say that There are lots of small settlements in northern ontario and Quebec and manitoba...but mostly aboriginal communities. The northern landscapes are very rugged and alot of lakes and wetlands...you have more mobility up there in winter when the ice roads are constructed each winter. The infrastructure needed for roads that would get minimal use isn't worth the cost...so most are accessible by float plane in summer and ice roads in winter. Western Canada has more northern access via roads...the Yukon and north west territories are easier to access from BC. Look closer at your maps...Google earth and see the lakes and waterways of the north east.
Russia is the only country larger than Canada and has similar areas of vast, remote spaces. Weather is the common denominator with Canada :D Nonetheless, gulags helped populate Russia's north but both countries also have mining to industrialize remote areas.
Canada's First Nations and Inuit people populate many areas of Canada's north as well but, even like Australia (and other countries with rather extreme climate), it's has 100s or 1000s of km of relatively or entirely unpopulated spaces.
Bienvenue au Québec! C’est bizarre de te voir dans mon coin de pays! ☺️ Hâte de voir ta vidéo de la ville de Québec.😍
I love your videos! I'm excited with you on your new adventure I so enjoy seeing the excitement and fun in your expressions. They brighten my day! Now I can go with you on adventures I could only dream of going. Prayers and hugs
I hope you enjoy our beautiful country Arslan, you fit right in and we welcome you with 💕 Love. I am close by in Kingston Ont ❤🇨🇦❤
Hey there! It's great to see you again! I love watching your videos, always so entertaining and fun! The new travel theme you're exploring adds a fresh and exciting touch to your content. Keep it up, inspiring us all with your adventures! Greetings
Spreading your wings 🪽
All the best. Your adopted Auntie will be enjoying seeing your future videos.
PLEASE JUST TAKE A CHEAP HOTEL ROOM WHEN YOU NEED ONE, ARSLAN! BE SAFE.👍👏👏😊❤️
Cheap? What is cheap?
@alisonbarratt3772 On a budget price. If he needs some proper rest and security. He takes one in his next video. Thank God!👍👏😊
The drive from Montreal to Quebec City is really lovely. Indeed, whenever you get a chance to drive somewhere in Canada you should. The scenery here is why people come from all over the world to visit :D The Trans-Canada Highway is less than 3 hours but Route 40 to Trois-Rivières, then R 138, is worth it. Finally, ariving via ferry into Quebec City is recommended esp if it is sunny out.
138 is my favourite way to get from Montreal to Quebec even if it takes twice as long as taking the 40.
man anytime i watch your vids you inspire me to travel to somewhere as well and explore a random place !
I like how raw your videos are. More realistic in any situation. All the best with your new adventure in travel and discovery.
That's such a good car rental drop off format! Excellent. ❤ your travels through French part of Canada.
I love the idea of where you are taking your channel. Your channel was always a practical way to live for less to me anyway. If you can travel and keep expenses low, your channel is still keeping its goal of saving money but it will be more exciting to watch. Most people don’t travel due to time constraints and finances. The money you would be paying in rent, could be spent on traveling. You are doing it.
Tell us what the costs are in local currency and in dollar amount if you can!👍
He needs to work as a nurse though, to keep up his skills, especially as a new grad.
@@heenanyou I’m a retired nurse and what I learned over the years is the endless types of career opportunities for RNs and most of them are willing to train you!!! Following the call of his heart is so important! You can always work as a nurse because of the nursing shortages but you can’t always be so young and be in touch with yourself.
I love to watch you cook & explore the new places you work. Love to see you as a nurse. But…I’ll follow you wherever.
Thank you for taking us along with you. Love it 💕
You're such a pleasure to watch! Bon voyage ✈️
I will keep watching you whatever you do. Good luck on this new adventure!
Fellow Canadian ... I enjoy your videos! 🤙🏼✌🏼❤🤍
You're amazing ! And welcome to Canada ! Enjoy!!
Great video.
I was a process control engineer (just retired 2/21/24) I would always stress test my projects just to make sure it would work under all conditions.
Also depending on the government.
But I found away of earning more income despite my Retirement. $57k weekly returns has been life changing, after so much struggles.
wow this awesome 👏 I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how do I make such weekly??
@@babytruca02Maria Angelina Alexander I really appreciate her efforts and transparency.
I remember giving her my first savings $20000 and she opened a brokerage account for me it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
My outlook on money changed when I realized someone making $200K can retire broke & someone making $80K can retire a millionaire. With the current market movement.

I’m really looking forward to see where life takes you,can’t wait for the next adventure. Keep doing what you’re doing, man. I love it.
Hey Arslan, You ain't seen nothing yet ... Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦 Montreal? Mont Tremblant ❤️I'm in Ottawa the capital. 4hr drive to Quebec city... Many people live north in Ontario...keep exploring. Chat me up if you come to Ottawa
Loving the new travel series! Safe travels, Arslen!
As a Canadian we don’t feel the need to build on every square inch of our land. We try to preserve our wildlife ❤
We also don't have a population of 320 million people. We have the same population as the State of California.
to be a confessed introvert, EVERYONE seems to LOVE you Arslan! You are just so FUN! Thank you for making all the amazing fun videos! You are SO COOL! You be careful out there! We all love you! YOU ROCK ARSLAN! So good to see you again!
I don't understand, why you didn't drive your campervan to Canada? Why rent a vehicle?
Maybe it’s less expensive? Or faster travel? He is on vacation and wants to relax. He did drive his vehicle across the country and back. Maybe it needed some major repairs?
I’m wondering why he doesn’t buy a lightweight camping pad to sleep on. If backpackers can carry one, there are plenty of options to make his travels more comfortable.
Plus, he went right by a dollar store… grab a small bottle of shampoo. You don’t have to keep it. 😉
Love your positive attitude and content @solarcampercar ❤
Probably cause he doesn’t want it torn apart by cbsa lol
He said. "To save money"
Why would any canadian say there is nothing in the remote reaches of Canada. If you are looking for cities with millions of people, true you won't find them. If you are looking for a small town living without the big city, western Canada's provinces might suit you. Canada is not Ontario, and Quebec. broaden your search.
I’m all for it! I love watching you do what I want t to do also & going outside your comfort zone. I’ll be watching more!
Canadian here…I think it’s simply because we don’t have the population! We are 10% of the US…🤷🏼♀️ Love your videos! Thanks for coming to Canada 😊
I love the new content on your channel. Do your thing I’m watching 😊❤
I actually really enjoyed last weeks video. The shift in the niche is a good thing.
Being somebody that lives in canada, please don't base the entire country off the province of quebec. They are basically their own little country within Canada. Go all the way to the east coast from Newfoundland and travel West into British Columbia and then up into Nunavut and the territories. You will see exactly how different Canada is from coast to coast and how diverse the culture really is. I find the biggest problem with Quebec isn't the people but it's the politics that keep and underlying hatred between Quebec and the rest of the country. There is always the divided in language where the rest of the country pretty much needs to conform 2 Quebec but as you mentioned many times, you don't see any English signs in Quebec and in some places it's downright illegal and businesses get fined for having English on their business signs
Yes! I agree with all you’ve said! We (fr the US) love the variety of terrain and people in Canada-generally kind and helpful! We’ll be heading to Cape Breton, from Florida, in October for Celtic Colours 🎶🎻!
@@susanfitz-geraldsmith5630 the Cabot Trail is pretty cool. I'm in Moncton New Brunswick and have done that route a couple of times
Encore du Québec bashing. Les lois sont faites pour protéger notre langue et notre culture. Nous sommes entourés de plus de 400 millions d’anglophones, il est normal que nous prenions des moyens pour survivre.
The laws aren't really there for the rest of canada to conform to french, it's because otherwise the province will have to conform to english.
Im french canadian and i enjoy your videos here, i hope you loving Quebec 🔥🔥
I like your new direction for your videos. I also watch Peter Santenello. He usually latches on to a local for a tour and asks questions. Maybe you could reach out to some of your subscribers for a tour of the places you want to go.
Heyy Arslan it's great you're trying different things,I enjoyed watching the Canadian video beautiful scenery and people,sorry about the language barrier but you're doing great, hopefully next stop they speak English, thanks for sharing your adventures with us stay safe ❤
This Was First Time visiting your channel 😊❤
Was A Wonderful Time..
Loved the ride in the sky,and the maple stop.
Always wanted to visit Montreal :) thanks for sharing with us!
Sorry man but joined for the car camping, I wish you all the best in the future travels and might subscribe again once you move back into the suv.
Wow, you are working in an awesome new dimension.
Thanks for bringing 😊us to Montreal. Have a safe journey!
Again,,,,, let's not talk about the screaming. (Zip line). Lol😅
Beautiful resort.
A scientific explanation is the Canadian Shield, which is a rock formation that covers most of the northern half of Canada. It makes developing infrastructure of any sort in the interior of Canada a lot more difficult because of how rugged and rocky the terrain is. Any highways that go through it need a lot of work blasting through rock, and it's the reason my neck of the woods, northern Ontario, was the missing link in Canada's highway network as far as even into the 1960s, as building through this rough terrain is very difficult without technology.
Others have mentioned things like the climate (more comfortable near the US border), indigenous land rights (much of the northern half of the country has a stronger indigenous presence), and economic opportunity (if you were to build up north, there has to be a really good reason, and it's usually in the name of resource extraction).
Plus, we just don't have the population to fill this country out. Only 40 million of us live here, and between all those factors, it just makes more sense to live close to the border. There are a few fairly big settlements in the northern half of Canada like Yellowknife, Fort McMurray, Thompson, Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Whitehorse... but even they would feel like small towns if they were placed in the southern parts of Canada.
🙌🙌🙌🙌 Great job!!! Thank you for improving my weekend, Arslan!! Wishing you safe and fun travelling & adventures!!
Actually from where you were Mont Tremblant, you could have driven about 600 KM to reach the Abitbi region a mining district where over 150 000 people live. From Val d'Or (Abitibi) you could again drive another 600 KM North to reach Radisson and multiple Cree First Nations reservation and the biggest Hydro Power plant in North America the James Bay electric complex.
I love your adventures no matter where you are. Would love to know more about your life growing up if you ever care to share. Your accent is noticeable and I wonder what your heritage is. Either way, I hope you continue letting us share your journey while living life.
Hope you have a great time with your trip! Stay safe and happy travels!
I swear.. when I first subscribed, I thought you were French Canadian who spoke fluent English, lol. Love your new direction and exploring different cultures / lifestyles. If it piques your interest, there’s an indigenous cuisine restaurant outside of MTL or maybe it’s closer to Quebec City 🤔 Always been curious to learn more on Canada’s indigenous heritage. Safe travels and enjoy beautiful Quebec ⚜️
Me too I thought the exact same thing! Perhaps he was French Canadian in a past life! lol
Thanks for sharing Montreal, Canada is beautiful country❤😊
Thank you for showing us Canada. I now plan to visit
Oh so much fun riding to the base of the mountain! 😁😁
Thank you for this long video, Arslan!
We will support you for whichever adventure it is! In fact we are also excited to travel with you and see the world from your POV and narration ☺️☺️ To new adventures! Cheers 🥂
That’s awesome ! I look forward to your next adventure ! Be safe 🌻🌻
I ok keep to your channel what ever you do cause your channel has empowered me to do a driving adventures of my own I did my first one yesterday out to Samuel P Taylor park. One to see if I would and two to see if I wouldn’t chicken out
omg that's fantastic, I'll watch all travelling videos!!
You're generalizing alot when saying nobody lives past Mont Tremblant...
There's hundreds and hundreds of small towns and native communities who live all the way to the northernmost part of Quebec. Some is accessible by car and some you must take boat and plane to. Also the road you took I have no idea where you found it , its not the main road that that leads north to the northern cities like Val D'or, Rouyn Noranda , Amos
There's a lot of people leavin' beyond Mont Tremblant !!! But in seperate regions (for natural resources). Worth to discover (in the summer unless you want to experience -30 C). Here in Saguenay Lac-St-Jean, we are 246 000 people on almost 99 000 km2...
I am enjoying your new content. 😊👋
I am living vicariously through my friend, Arslan.. may we travel to many wonderful places.. safe travels love
Love seeing Canada with you great job keep up the good work
We do have people living in the arctic. Many people live up north but once people have Healthcare problems they need a better hospital.
You are brave and adventurous! You travel and we will watch. 🎉. Have you seen the channel Snow and Curt? They travel in their van and are in Europe at this time. They had their own van shipped overseas. You both are sharing so many beautiful parts of our world. ❤
Arslan, thank you so much for your videos! I will watch your vlogs on any topic. Your content is so relaxing and like a breath of fresh air. I'm excited for the new travel series! Also thank you for letting us not forget the scream🤣
The neighbourhood you ran in, is where I grew up. Fond memories of the area. The gym you went to, used to be a car dealership that was converted. Laval has slowly changed from a suburban to a major City over the last 40 years.
I love thee new content. I've always wanted to see Canada 🍁.
I was born in Gatineau-Ottawa but now live up north in Maniwaki, Québec. It’s about 4 hours north of Montreal. You’d be surprised how many people live up north if you drive on the 117 going to Val d’or or going towards James Bay for example. There are a lot of people living up there. It’s sometimes hard for people living in big cities to understand how people can get used to this type of living, when you have everything at your fingertips and within a 2 minute’s walk, you can eat, buy food and see a movie. The more north of the province you are, you get used to the fact that you have to plan. And going down to the city either toward Montreal or Ottawa, that’s when you fill up your car with as much stuff as you can then go back home. You want to see a movie? It’s 50 minute drive. But, we have everything else! The only difference is that we have space and lots of it. I never thought, I’d get used to this life. I sometimes miss the busy way of living that big cities offer you, but, i love being in the country and I’m not the only one, since there are a lot of Americans who come at their cottages for the summer over here. There are thousands of people arriving in June and leaving at the end of August to go back home. 😊 p.s. And yes, there are big cities north of Mont-Tremblant. Way up north. Many many thousands of people. Hahaha… The guy you spoke too at the coffee shop doesn’t represent us at all. There are people having a lot of fun up north even if we are 4-7-13 hours from Montreal or from the frontier.
Following your dreams! Love it. Excited for you
Love your vids Arslan! Keep up the positivity! What are you going to be doing, nursing-wise on your travel adventures?
Loving these videos. I feel like I am with you
I think it’s great to travel. However, please keep in mind if you’re going to purchase things to make your car living (stove, sleeping bags, window covers, etc) please don’t buy things just to throw them out. 🙏
Loving the new format! Canada is beautiful!
Can't wait for Quebec City!!
I remember when I watched the last Olympic Games held in Canada the announcer stated that 90 percent of the Canadian population lives within a 100 miles of the Canadian US border. Fun fact I never forgot. They don’t live further north because it gets too cold.
Bro we just want to watch you make coffee in your camper haha
Its too cold. We have family in Yellowknife and its -70 in winter. You build muscles wearing the winter parkas
Nice trip and video
Awesome.. thanks for sharing!
Wow ! That sky ride.
It feels so weird to see a RUclipsr explore my part of the world haha ! Welcome buddy and enjoy your stay ! 😃
