- A little tribute to a few of my favorite UA-camrs, who happen to be Korean solo women campers! Lots of eating and drinking (beer, makgeolli, AND soju 🥴) included.
But before all the fun, there's navigating wildfire season here in Arizona and kayaking with Gunther, Afterward, I try my hand at a little gold panning, since I'm in one of the areas prospected on the TV show, "Gold Rush".

Gunther has turned out to me the best camping buddy, right? He’s really taken to hiking and seems totally relaxed at the campsite, while still up for an adventure. So great your adoption application was accepted.
Thank you! He's really the perfect addition to the family. Other than woofing at any passers-by, he's totally happy just to nap and snack. 😄
@@ShoestringMartha woofing is his job! He is the "man of camp" his job to protect you n camp! Although he'd likely lick them to death. He's living his best life and so are you!! Love to watch him trot on down the trail. Changing my name to. " jealous granny" LOL
Omg, Gunther in his hoodie & harness and topped off with biiig stretch - priceless! Thanks for including the other channels so we can support them.
I can't let him be out there nakey! 😂
Gunther is absolutely living his best life!
That was fun! Looks like Gunther is enjoying himself too!
Hi Kori,
I rarely comment on UA-cam videos but felt compelled to leave one here. I really enjoyed this video. My parents are Korean immigrants, coming to the US in the mid 1980s. Growing up, I went on a lot of camping trips with them and we often made similar food to what you showed here - the kbbq with the special grill top on a butane stove by the campfire is a familiar sight! Sometimes the smell of our delicious marinated meats would make it to the next campsite over and hungry and curious campers would make their way over to our campsite to ask what we were cooking... I think secretly hoping we might share. We usually did :)
My parents must have learned before I was born that rice takes an agonizingly long time to cook on the fire, because by the time I came around they made sure to lug one of our several rice cookers from home and plug it into shore power at the campground once we arrived at our destination. Now that I'm grown and go on camping trips on my own, a little 12v-powered rice cooker has made its way into my camp kitchen - highly recommend if you plan on cooking more rice on the road in the future!
I didn't realize there were so many Korean women on UA-cam filming their camping adventures! My mom has told me that when she was in her 20s, she did a ton of hiking and camping in the mountains in Korea. There was no UA-cam back then, but it's fun to check out those channels and imagine my mom as a young woman exploring and cooking meals and sitting by the fire years ago.
This was a fun trip down memory lane. Thanks for making this video and linking the Korean campers in the description. And don't worry about the pronunciation of 안녕 (annyeong), sounded spot on to me!
Hello and thank you so much for sharing these memories! It sounds like such a fun (and delicious) experience, camping with your family. And your mom sounds like an incredible pioneer! 💪
While making rice in a mess kit was a fun experiment, it did take a lot time, even for such a small serving. I can only imagine how long it would take to cook enough for a whole family. I do have a mini 12v rice cooker on my kitchen list! With the heat, and fire bans, I'm always looking for other non-flame-dependent tools to use.
Thanks for watching, and safe and joyous travels 🥰
Gunther seems to really enjoy camping. He’s a lucky pup!
You are HYSTERICAL!!! You kept drinking your night cap even when there was an after burn. HAHAHAHAHAHAH🤣 I wish I had a camping buddy like you. 👍
Just taking one for the team 😂 😂 😂
Hi I’m new to your channel, camper van Carolyn said you had a great channel so here I am watching your videos. I have now been watching you regularly and she was right!
Gunther is such a lovely camping companion. Those folded back ears!! 😆
Turbo mode, for maximum velocity! 😂
@@ShoestringMartha oh yeah, that extra 0.003mph really makes a difference! 🤣
You are so much fun to watch! Love all of your adventures 😊.
I’ve been down that same Korean rabbit hole. They are pretty awesome.
You make the best camping food and accompany with a great variety of drinks. 😊. I think I will give it a try camping by myself since waiting for others to go with me is quite annoying. Thanks for the inspiration to explore even on my own.
Yes! Your time is precious. Get on out there! 😁
You should go! I love going alone. Where do you live?
@@yvonnesouto9023 I live in CT.
@@havechopstickswilltravel2990 omg I live in Massachusetts! Maybe there is a reason we met on YT!
@@yvonnesouto9023 wow. We’ve only camp at one place in MA so far, Sweet Water Camp Grounds in Brewster. It was nice to let our son loose with his friends on their bikes. They go swimming, fishing and biking there. We went to Province Town for some touristy stuff too. Do you have good recommendations for a quiet camp near the water that isn’t too crowded? We normally camp in RI, Burlingame and Fisherman’s Memorial state park. I like Burlingame the most because it is more secluded and closer to East Beach, which is really small and tucked away.
Lol I fell into the same rabbit hole, love the Korean girl campers. You’ve got the drinking and eating down but to make it more similar, you have to camp in heavy rain, the best! 😂
lol I guess I’m not a “weather monster” 😄
Hahahaha Gunther was in sports mode with his ears pinned back walking along the trail!! ❤
That's how you know he means business!
Gunther is so cute and chill. He reminds me of Valkor in Neverending Story. Looks like a peaceful time. Got a chuckle from your hat tip to Korean nomad women
Ha! I could totally see that, with his scruffy lil face! and thank you ☺️
Watch the Rirang video where she goes to see her grandma up in the mountain and they both throw down. She rides a bicycle there and has a wreck on the way back. She a little hurt but she ok she ok. Lol. Love me some Rirang. Lol
I saw that one! And her grandma tried to give her a little money for food, and instead Rirang gave her some money, and her grandma's face just lit up 🥺😭
@@ShoestringMartha yes! That was a good one!
I love Korean camping! I am not the only one who can't get enough of their videos. I always want their cool camping stuff!
I’m glad not all of it available in the US (Oh I have looked!). I’d be BROKE 😂💸💸💸
Well done well done 👍👍
Gunther is the cutest dog I have ever seen! Ever!
Love your camping videos with Gunther. He's a very happy and lucky dog to have you. You take very good care of him. If I was a dog I'd want to be with you too. Looking forward to the next video.
He's rotten, but deserves to be 😂
@@ShoestringMartha You mean spoiled rotten?
yes indeed!
Just found your channel and instantly I’m binge watching your videos.
i did 6 months in sasebo around 2001. stop at micky d's about every other day. found a terayki burger there. taste wise i am saying the micky d pork sausage patty in terayki sauce. became a favorite when i stop in. okay 1 gatorade fight coming up, i prefer the grape zero or the powerade zero in grape. the powerade wins as it does not give the gatorade after taste when you don't need the enzymes. hated when they went from 32 ozs to 28 ozs a few years ago. suggestion leav about a inch in 1 bottle up to the first ring then throw that one into the freezer. after frozen fill up with your drink mix of whatever.
I really enjoy your videos, thanks for introducing us to the Korean solo women campers! Gunther is adorable.
Hello From Homer AK, Love your style...For you are a Poet....
Thank you so much! 😊 Sure could use some of that Alaskan climate, right about now. 🥵
Gunther is an adorable sweetie! Thanks for sharing this video, you gave me several great ideas
That’s funny how you kept drinking your night cap LOL!
and even then, I still only made through about a third of that tiny bottle. That stuff was strongggg 😅
Loved that korean grilling pan, would have to agree, cucumber lime stands supreme!
Oh my goodness… he is sooooooo adorable! Great videos!
OMGOODNESS I had so much fun on this camping trip with you and Gunther. I just love your channel you are a lot of fun and very relaxing. I can’t wait for the next adventure Homie 🤙🏿💕☮️ and thanks for the other camping sisters across the pond 😆
Thanks for the joining! After such a busy trip, the next one is going to be extra super duper chill. ☺️
@@ShoestringMartha And I’ll be right with ya chillin 😎 until then peace love and chicken grease 😆🤩🥰
Rirang can eat now!!! She can throw down!!! And that ahhh she does after she takes a drink! Makes me wanna throw down and throw some back! Lol
There is no way I could keep up with her -- food- or drink-wise. I would die. 🤣
@@ShoestringMartha me too! 🤣🤣🤣
I just love your pup. What a charm. Nice video. Yummy food and such a nice camp space.
Good shot of deer!!
Omg you made cake! I have to go look for that video. Love your channel. Love from Australia
Welcome!! 🦘🐨👋🏼😁
I was in at that same Preskit campground in 2017. No fires allowed then, either. I have photos of the wildfire that was ravaging homes south of Prescott Valley. During monsoon season. Torrential rain out of nowhere for a couple of hours. Almost daily. I could deal with that. The javalinas ravaged the campground at night. I remember my friend woke us up screaming 😱 bloody murder. I was like what? She said a javalina was outside her tent breathing heavy & smackin it's lips 💋 next to her head 😂😂😂 I said we'd name him Elvis Presley & I started singing Burnin Love. 🤣🤣🤣 She ran to the car & slept in the seat reclined.
omg 🤣🤣🤣
I've been enjoying your camping videos. Little Gunther is a real sweetie. I am amazed at all the different foods you cook with such simple camping gear. Keep on having fun!
Thank you so much, and welcome!
Beverages and food. Love the Korean women.
Same same!! 🇰🇷
I watch a lot of those Korean campers too, they have so much fun, rain or shine. Much like yourself - thanks. I also wanted to note that all the best youtubers have lovely hoomans.
Yes! If the weather is bad, or they forget a piece of equipment -- they shrug it off and make the best of it. I was going to include something about it in the video, but it got cut for time -- I also love the appreciation of seasonality and regionality. Whether it's snow, or changing leaves, or cherry blossoms, or the ocean -- they admire it deeply. When they are in an area known for some particular food, drink, or crop, they are always sure to try that item. It's traveling with a sense of time and place.
@@ShoestringMartha Eating local seasonal food is a big part of Korean culture. Koreans are serious about the freshness of ingredients, local and seasonal.
I can see that, and am a little envious of it. Having indistinct seasons, and everything available, all the time makes one feel detached from nature, and out of sync with the progression of time.
Gunther doesn’t have to go far to sit his butt down 😂. I always use sweatshirts and jackets on my Yorkie 🐾💗🐾 also have a doggie back pack 😊
Oh Soju 👍🏻 Brought some home from my trip to Soul Korea but my nephew drank it while house sitting 😣 It packs a punch for sure 💪🏻
lol true story! Gunther just sort of “retracts” about 4” to lie down 😂 I think it took me a month to finish that soju 🥴
Love watching Gunther bloom. Ck out Yo-yo camping
He fits in so perfectly, I couldn’t imagine our family being without him. 🥰
I thought you meant YYYA Camp, whose videos I have enjoyed, but I searched and found Yo Yo Camp, and now I have to watch hers too! 😂
I'm hoping for a javalina encounter somewhere in this video. 🐗 😂 You're sleeping in your vehicle already but I would think Gunther would bark. They caused quite the ruckus at every camp site. Especially if anyone was cooking or had food out after dark.
I haven’t yet been able to check the javalina box on my camping wildlife card yet, but I used to see them a lot when I lived in Sedona 🐗🐗🐗
❤TFS!
Always enjoy your videos Kori. I've watched a couple of the Korean camping women. There's one that really goes all out with her setup. More work than I would want to do but I guess for some it's about the process as well. And it's fun to see what kind of gadgets they use and how they cook. I don't have a thing for alcohol but your imbibing gives me a chuckle--"oh, that's deadly, with an afterburn" as she pours another couple.
Yes! And I love seeing how different the campgrounds are. It seems most are privately-run, and have a store. Some have communal kitchens where you can wash your dishes and heat your food. The owners often give them a little something from their garden or homemade kimchi. Also, campground cats seems pretty common.
I didn't include him, because I wanted to highlight the women, but I also watch @PICNICAMP 피크니캠프 { 감성채널 } and his setup is incredible!
@@ShoestringMartha Sounds pretty different from the states. Wonder what the fees for camping are. Thanks I'll check out that link.
Occasionally, they will say, but I always forget to convert won to USD to figure it out.
So much fun in Prescott! Little Man is doing well, I see. Korean grilling seems like a game changer, I must try! Happy Camping!
Oh yeah he has settled right into the groove! :)
Kayaking sunburns are the worst.
I enjoy your camping videos so much! Glad to see I have loads more to watch. Gunther is adorable and he looks so happy with you. Can’t wait to find my camping vehicle and get my grandog Henri LaChewer to be my sidekick in our adventures. He’s a mini dachshund and just as fun and adorable as Gunther.
Aren't they the best? Gunther is a mini dachshund too, though it's hard to tell, with his unusual coat (soft-coated wirehair) and lil lpotbelly.
@@ShoestringMartha I just love how happy he is that he adopted you. 😀
Made me laugh you ate rice with tongs 🤣
Love watching your vlog always something interesting x
The Korean campers do it so well! I don’t have the skill or maybe my rice isn’t stickier enough. Or maybe I should just stick with Western utensils 😂
Thats a cool pan..great gift
It's pretty great -- I need to use it more often.
How FuN…I haven’t seen the Korean gurlzzzz YET. I’ve been binging on Mav from Minnesota & all his various Camping adventures. I got a SUV tent on Amazon for my next adventure. Your dog is super chill companion!
Love me some Mav! I also watch VanWives, and I guess he was just up there visiting them -- UA-camr worlds colliding! 😂 I guess the cool kids call that a "collab". Gunther and I wish you safe and joyous travels 🤞
Loved this!
Great video! I guess thank you for another UA-cam rabbit hole for me to get lost in?😉 Always love to see what adult beverages and awesome food/cooking ideas you have. Thanks for sharing it all... AND Gunther❣️
LOL you're welcome! Maybe the next one should be a "dry" trip. 🤔 JK! I'm reviewing my new 12v fridge, so there will be LOTS of beverages -- for testing purposes, of course. 😉
@@ShoestringMartha oh..of course!!
Tracy I agree. Just found her channel this morning at 2 am. It is now almost 9:43 am and I am binging hard!
LOL I have gone down the Korean campers too, there are also more like glamming ones that are really good too! Gunther was adorable in his hoodie😊
Oh yeah.. PICNICAMP is one of those, whom I also watch. It's like a game for me to count how many cute little lanterns he brings. 😂
@@ShoestringMartha LOL, yes, he is one I have watched. All the gadgets are fun! I found your channel when the bed frame was recommended and it is exactly what I need. I don’t have the skills, so I will need someone to help, but I don’t want to remove my seats either so that will be perfect! Thank you😊
You crack me up. Love your videos. Reminds me so much of my kinda camping. Couple of beers and good food xx
It is the way. 😄
Hilarious!!😂🎉😂
Yugoslavia mess kit? Where did you get it please? Interesting use of tongs for chopsticks. You should be well relaxed after all that alcohol...lol. what a beautiful forest!! You are a lucky lady
Eating with tongs - also inspired by those UA-camrs - and also useful for clumsy hands like mine 😃 Not sure where the mess kit is from. I won it at a wilderness survival group campout, many year ago. They have some reproductions on Amazon now.
You didn't butcher it! Ahn-nyung!
Whew - that's a relief! I'm working on "thank you" now - gahm-sahm-nee-dah! 🫶
Id be hella tipsy!
😂 Thankfully makgeolli is pretty low ABV, and I only had a little of the soju. I'm actually a total lightweight.
I like watching your videos, however, this one I just kept thinking "her poor liver" 😢
It was real struggle. I don’t know how they do it 😅
Im curious how you drink so much alcohol and still stay "straight n normal" LOL. I'D BE WASTED!! ON A 1/4 OF THAT
LOL I'm actually a total lightweight! I typically don't drink everything that I show.
I think I had about 2 sips of the soju. It took me a couple months to finish the rest of that teeny bottle, and makgeolli is very low alcohol, like 3%.
In the "Can It Cook" video, I drank all of the first can, 1/4th of the second can (the rest was for brat boiling), and 1/2 of the third and final can (put out the fire with the rest).
@ShoestringMartha aha!!!! I'm thinking OMG. THIS LADY IS AMAZING..i was thinking you would out drink my son!! which you are by the way. Amazing that is. I drank 2 ounces of a Mississippi mudslide...nope..NO more...lol. and about 6 ounces of Irish cream whiskey..straight from bottle. yummy but..... it's been 20 years since I had a drink. I finally had to ask...HOW??? LOL. STAY SAFE n have fun...hug that fuzzy baby for me...he is the greatest
My secret revealed! 😂 Gunther hugs have been administered!
@@ShoestringMartha :)
