In this California travel vlog, we take our new campervan further north towards Cachuma Lake and make a few stops along the way. Our first stop was at Cold Spring Tavern, just north of Santa Barbara, where Alex tried some traditional American chili. We accidentally stumble across a beautiful, and cheap campground where we decided to stay for the night. After sunset, we drove to the nearby city of Solvang, a traditional Danish town in America where we fell in love with the cute danish architecture and festive Christmas lights.
After Alex gets his hands on some Danish sausage we head back to the campervan to give you a peek into vanlife, with our first attempt at transforming our campervan seats into a double bed.

⭐ About Travel Beans:
Welcome to the official Travel Beans UA-cam channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

I love birds so keep the bird footage coming.
I love wactching your videos! You kids crack me up! So fun AND informational!! and I LIVE here!
Catching up on your old videos... was on the Iowa River this morning, saw a red tail hawk, bald eagle, blue heron, and a crap ton of geese and ducks. Last year at one point we even had pelicans!
Hi. If you enjoy bird watching you would love to visit Wilcox, Arizona in the southeast during migration, spring or fall. And I would love to see the video since I cant go anywhere anymore.
Always wanted to travel across America in a camper 😃 maybe my vlog will take me there one day 👍 great video guys! Inspiring 😊
Previous month I managed to withdraw my first five figure paycheck ever!!! I've been working for this company on-line for two years now and I never been happier... They are paying me $95 per hour, and the best thing about that is that I am not really that tech-savvy, they only asked for standard knowledge of internet and basic typing skill...Superb thing about this work is that now I have more time for my loved ones. I am able to dedicate quality time with my relatives and buddies and look after my babies and also going on family vacation together with them very routinely. Don't ignore this opportunity and try to respond fast. Let me show you what I do... *grab26.com*
@@HelenGPitts now you have explained it like that, it sounds like the opportunity of a lifetime! I'll be in touch straight away 😅
😂
You’re tugging at my heartstrings!!!
Yes Alex!!!! Birds!!! Always!!
We feed lots of wild birds and adore watching them. The blue bird you saw was a Blue Jay. We have a visiting heron ( like you saw) who fishes in our small pond. He’s funny and thinks if he stands behind a tree we can’t see him! Dummy has a 4 foot wing span!! Ha!
I camped at Cachuma Lake as a kid in the 60’s. Do you remember the number of your campsite? We always tried to get B13 or B14.
I dragged my husband to Solvang before we were married to give him the cheesy tour!! Had fun though! He’s from Europe and found it interesting.
Hope you had a chance to go to Pea Soup Andersen’s!!! It’s vegetarian Emma!!!!!
Thanks for a visit down memory lane-I grew up just south of where you traveled.
Wishing you had loads more time in America!!!
Continued safe travels!!
Enjoying this! Reminds me of Leavenworth in Washington
Solvang is a lot of fun...
Alex is funny. Like his humor.
Enjoying watching your travels. Always like hearing what Brits think of this country. You have seen many beautiful place. So many more to be seen. I’m sure others have recommended Yosemite. Maybe you have gone. I’m just catching up. I’ll check your other travels.
Florida is great for birds!
Absolutely loving you had to put a "sarcasm alert" on the video! Haha!
@4:19 if you love birds, then try out the Everglades in Florida. (I know, it's crowded, but hey...) My favorite bird is the great egret, a white bird of the heron-family, and related to pelicans. Biological.
Or pink Spoonbills,
Anhingas, that swim underwater and then spread their wings in the sun and let them dry
A hot dog is not a sausage, and we do have good sausages.
A hot dog is a sausage, Frankfurter Würstchen
@@betsyduane3461 A hot dog is NOT a sausage in the way this guy in the video is referring to it. We don't call a hot dog a sausage in the US. There are sausages--the kind of food he is referring to--and there are parts of the US where sausages are an important part of the local fare. But he is not in those places, and doesn't seem to be able to understand the difference.
@FORENSIC AUDITS ACROSS AMERICA!! Yes they are. Even the most common hot dog, Oscar Mayer says Wiener on the label.
wie·ner
1.
a frankfurter or similar sausage
I've been to Fredricksburg, Texas, which is this little "german" town. It was very touristy and underwhelming, especially considering the fact that I am german myself. But I didn't wasted much time and went to a nearby state park instead, which was awesome
You’ve got to visit Leavenworth, WA. Cool Bavarian town.
It's not as good since the lefse factory closed
@@JasonBrownafewmomentsl8er it's been a while since being there. But many fond memories.
Thank you guys for my entertaining evening!
Yay.. more roadtripping with the beans 🤗👍❤
When I was visiting my brother in Seattle he took us to this town called Leavenworth kind of up it the mountains. It was a very German town with beer, sausages and German looking buildings. It also had the world largest Nutcracker museum. Lol
Lol that's basically our town but in the PNW. When I mentioned moving everyone said I should go there and I was like "I'm trying to escape the crappy tourist town, not trade one for another!"
Cachuma has good bass fishing
America has some of the best sausages in the world, since we are mostly German. German-Americans are America's largest single ethnic group.
You ate them in the video.
Pittsburgh has different cultural neighborhoods and it’s a pretty cool area to visit. It’s in the foothills of the Allegheny mountains 🏔
Pretty scenery, thanks for sharing. Looks fun!
They just make me feel so hungry
you two crack me up. A lady next door has several Yurts for rent at out house in 29 Palms...Central location for day trip. Palm Springs, Death Valley, Joshua Tree. Coma Volcanic Dome..and more. 190 a night with everything provided...but food...
Too bad this is behind. You could have gone to Pinnacles National Park to see the Condors! But you got to see, eagles, turkey, and I think I saw a heron and a grebe.
I'm so glad you finally found a proper sausage in the US. Hope it didn't taste like hot dog!
It shouldn't, given that in the US, hot dogs and sausages are two different things.
You should tour Hearst Castle and check out the elephant seal beach.
Must see are Yosemite and Carmel it's on your way to SF.
If you find yourself in the US Midwest, the Alton/Godfrey, IL area is known for bird watching.
Awesome! Thanks! 👍
Cute video! How fun! We live on our sailboat, sailing around the world... pretty similar to van life :)
Travelling with a cat or two would be harder in van life :)
@@TT-zd6nr oh for sure! But I've seen people do it ;)
I’m not an expert on the birds but there are some amazing ones down in Clearwater Florida as well as a Scottish style community
Thumbs up!
Place stood the test of time and log cabins are cool and you look both like yes I agree Hansel and Gretel in a good way.
Helen, GA is another country type town
Aww too bad I was late. I love Solvang but food in the area is usually a miss. At least around the tourist areas. Had a couple of bad experiences there wherein the restaurant served us microwave food 😡 and charged us a hefty amount. But Solvang is lovely. Are you guys heading up north? You will enjoy San Francisco. Or if you’re heading all the way to Oregon, Crater Lake National Park is a can’t miss. It’s so beautiful.
You're likely eating at the wrong places. Avoid Chomp at all times. It's terrible. You want to do places like the landsby, figeroa mountain brewery, firestone, wine merchant, panino, root 246, petros, the gathering table, fitspatricks, solvang brew is ok, Paula's or Ellen's for breakfast, el rancho deli is pretty good and their coffee bar is the best in town, red barn, dos carlitos, sy kitchen, bakers table, sy burrito, the alisal river grill, morrells, the marriot has good food too, sideways inn has a great bar and nibbles, pizza shack. Theres a ton of good places
Probably not this trip because it's quite a drive, but you've got to come back to America and go see Yellowstone and the surrounding area!
Thanks you visiting my home town. You should have had the Tri Tip Sandwiches at the Cold Spring Tavern. They have the best Tri Tip Sandwiches.
Hey guys! I realized you were in CA last month and sorry I asked you guys to try out other parts of CA. Please remember me... I grew up in CA and lived here most of my life, but I’m also a traveler who can claim to have lived in 5 countries and traveled to nearly 20!
As for amazing countries that have towns pretending to be other countries, try going to Argentina. In the province of Córdoba there is Villa General Belgrano. It's basically mini Germany/Bavaria in South America. It's really nice and has loads to do around it.
As for BIRDS, go to Boise, Idaho and check out the Birds of Prey sanctuary. This dude'll love it.
Cant wait to see you in my home area. I grew up in San Jose, and lived up in the redwoods above santa cruz before moving to Minnesota. I sure hope you drove highway 9.
America is known for their microbrews. Some of the best beers in the world here
I love your videos, you are sooo cute and awesome couple. 🤣 I would like to see a video, how do you prepare for the next travel, how do you eat all these crazy food and look fine in the next episode 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Fantastic job, guys. 🥳🥳🥳🥳
I've spent many hours with my parents shopping in Solvang.
Make sure to get some ebelskiver!
I always get a crock of cheese when I'm there!
Wow. Thanks for mentioning the Philippines. My home country. Of all the countries you've visited. Still enjoying your videos.
i'm from the philippines! hope the van will bring you guys to Canada! google kelowna, banff and jasper to name a few of the places to see up here....cheers
No, not all "American" sausage is for my taste ( one being the spicy variety) but I've had lots which are quite good enough. Respectfully you might be confusing hot dogs with sausages btw. That Danish weird ass town (lol) looked gorgeous, so quaint and cute. Yeah the US can make decent impressions of foreign towns . lol Looks like a painting @0:51 wow. You're taking the wild west by storm guys :)
Yepper Youre Right! Its the Same as A Pub. Ya need to Binge Watch Grimm!!! Youre Almost in the Prefect Location. Im trying not to be too Picky. Theyre Pronounced Tokcos. Not Tackos. Its an American thing. Im so happy Watchin ya two. My Hearts about Crapped out. I work, come home and Watch You Two Silly Kids. Ya Cheer Mees Up!!!!! Alexs Ya Found Your Weiners!!!!!!! Emmas The Brains of the Operation!!!! Made Me Smile!!!
Yep yep, Randy;s right. It's a Spanish thing. Vowels have only one pronunciation:
A = Ah
E = Eh
I = Eeee
O = Oh
U = Oooh
So, it's T-ah-C-oh-S
@@DDIII3 Thank You
Also hit up Pea Soup Andersens!
Curious if you're still in town(well nvm this was filmed last month lol). This has been my hometown since I was little. My parents were both born and raised in santa barbara. We are long time locals! I could've shown you where all the good places are! Lol so right about it being tacky though as far as the look of the place. Lol you went to the wrong place for "danish food" it's the Americanized version of danish food so your expectations were too high. That's like asking panda Express to be authentic chinese food. Those sausages are actually nice if you dont have a pretense of what they are "supposed" to taste like. But you should've ordered the pastrami there and avoided the beer and gotten a cocktail instead(solvang brews beers are not good). If you wanted something closer to home you could've gone to Fitzpatrick's for a Guinness.
When are you guys gonna be in San Francisco . Would love to meet you guys for coffee
Oh for frack sake... they are not Tack-os, they are TAH-coze.
@@HelenGPitts STFU
Yeah well it's brit thing. It annoys too. How about pah stah instead of pass ta too.
Who cares what greasy crap is pronounced.
Wow, Alex was extra Alexy in this one. Speaking of cities “pretending” to be other cities, there’s a German (?) Village in Washington that I’m dying to visit. It’s called Leavenworth.
Also, SUPER PSYCHED to see Alex try to the McGriddle!
haha 'extra alexy' 😂 well we hope you enjoy the new video! Thanks for the food recommendation!!
Come to Egypt
Gods day happy tour on sash world picture
1! 😊
🥇🏆
Thanks Autobahn.
👍💖
The weird vegetarians out there like myself would like to know what she eats!
There is a town that pretends to be Germany in Washington State.
Hot dogs are NOT sausages. They aren't even the same thing. Expecting it to be a sausage makes your experience with a hot dog disappointing.
Portmerion in Wales pretending to be Italy??
