Been overworked and depressed this week and this video brought me real joy. You take life as it comes, and it’s really cool how you get happiness out of the simplicity of your little set-up, the rain, a cow, a hot meal, etc. Keep making videos, I love the underlying philosophy of what you’re doing.
There is definitely something very comforting about sitting by a warm fire when it’s raining out! For now, I have my candle. Is it a heavy rain in Ireland? PNW winters have many days of rain but it’s usually a pretty light one.
One of the things i appreciate about your channel is how upbeat, and grateful you are for the beauties of living life. One of my most favorite quotes is: “You’ll never be happier than you are grateful.” - Russell M. Nelson. Thank you for sharing beauty with us.
Camping World sells a tiny 12v fridge anout the size of your cooler 4 about $80 US$. You don't have 2 turn it on until you need 2, so I would invest in one. Game changer. 😊🎉
I love love love road trips. I love to drive. I drive for a living and when I can't go anywhere because I have to work. I go on rides with you... I have driven from Rhode Island to California, Wyoming, Florida the carolinas. I have family in all those places. It's great. Can't wait to retire so I can do road trips all the time...Thanks for sharing your experiences and your moments.
I don’t have a power station but I’d like to get one at some point. I think it could fit right behind the drivers seat and recharge itself while I’m driving. Rowan storm chaser lol I think I’m looking more for the eye of the storm!
Why do you van lifers get up so early in the morning? Why don’t you sleep until at least seven. Is it because you have to be out of that spot or something and then y’all start driving oh my God that would drive me freaking insane.Lol
You need to be careful picking stuff to eat that you’re not not sure what it is lol. There is an app called “picture this” that I downloaded and all you have to do is take a picture of the plant and it’ll tell you exactly what it is. It’s really cool.
You are such an inspiration to me. The closest I came to living out of my car was a drive from Orange County CA to San Antonio TX. Slept in my car in a hotel parking lot & drove on Interstate Highway 10 going East at 2:00 in the morning. It's 21 years later and I'm hoping to do some more of the same with no particular destination in mind. Just seeing different places and meeting new people. You've reminded me of how much fun and how much of an adventure life can be. Safe travels to you 😊
Windshield wiper speed vs rain ratio is a THING! It's so true! Just found you a few days ago ( mid Jan '24), originally deep dive door dashers and discovered your van life simultaneously ( my other deep dive). Whoa I hit the jackpot! I had to go back to the beginning to try to find the beginning (Virgo prefer chronological order 🤣) Just love your positive energy and joy in life. It's good for me right now. I'm a 74yr old native Arizonan who is having some cranky back issues and I just decided to live my life in my bedroom with my two Chihuahuas and pretend I'm in a "Tiny Home"🤣 I am an excellent Doordash customer! Chuck from Dashing Across America has unintentially taught me tipping courtesy. I put a tip with my order then leave a note with some cash on the table by my front door thanking my dasher! I actually watch the notification page showing where the dasher is. Thank you so much for your vulnerability and genuine joy for everything. You are inspiring me to get up and go outside into the sun!😎
Gratitude is deeply life changing. For sure. So is honestly examining the choices one has made. I respect you for embracing both of these things. ❤ I can’t wait to see you in your home on that plot of land you find one day! 🏡
Thank you Laura! 💖 I’m working on the wiper situation- I’m hoping I can fix it myself, just haven’t had the time to tackle it yet. Fortunately for now there hasn’t been more rain!! ☀️
The best weather forecaster on YT is "Ryan Hall Y'all". His weather predictions are precise. That would be good to use for your travels. If you can find an "Auto Zone" they could help with the wipers and give you a free diagnostic on maybe the cause for them stopping. Just an idea. I have no idea is that franchise is in that part of the country.
I watch Ryan Hall- he’s great!! But yea,, not before this drive lol only after I was in the middle of the storms. I learned my lesson! I’ll check out auto zone- I think they’re located all over and it’s a good place to start.
Hey Rowan, I just wanted to tell you if you have a smart phone you can google pretty much anything. Just open google and click on the camera take a picture of the item and it’ll tell you what it is plants, screen shots, pretty much anything but people
I just watched this video (not realizing the date) and I was SO CONCERNED about where Ruby is! You must not have had her yet, I am glad to see you made it through your windshield wiper emergency! I love your videos, they inspire me, please keep on posting! Also I was looking for your cashapp or venmo, I don't like it that YT takes so much of the donations made through them and would like the support to go to you and not YT! Thank you again!
For me I go by a mileage pay ratio- a $2 add-on for less than half a mile so I took it. Some days I wouldn’t but I really needed the $ at that point. But that’s why I love door-dashing! We can decide for ourselves which orders to take! It’s cool you doordash too! 🙌
Great video!!!!! Beautiful scenery!!!! That sunrise was awesome and the music u chose, perfect!!! Love that rainbow🙂 Ohhhhhhhhhhh, I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the rain, especially if I can watch it from staying home lol Oh noooooooooooooooooooooooooo, on the windshield wiper motor conking out!!! Hopefully u got them fixed!!! Thanks for sharing!
Enjoyed this one too! I have a free plant id app on my phone and it says the yellow flowered plant is 'Common Wormwood a species of Mugworts. The first plant that smelled like sweet grass was identified as being Prairie Sagewort a species of mugwort. The app is called "picture this' for plants.
Hi I have been living on my caravan for this is the third winter I would love to try the car life but I have my little bangal he would lock right off X love you little car and great use of space I need you to decorate mine for me lol x kind regards nat and Merfin UK ❤
Great video! I love your casual style. The first plant is called prairie sagewort or pasture sage. The second plant is common wormwood. They're both in the mugworts family.
Omg. I feel like your mother and worried sick with you in that last storm ⛈️ and no wipers!!! Omg. My anxiety was through the roof!!! Thank God you made it safely somewhere!!
Hey Rowan, I made jambalaya with the mix,you used zatarain's.✅shared with my twin🙏 yummy 😋 I loved it.🍤 sausage and ham. Just sharing,this here... New Orleans video...worth it.
Wow what amazing weather especially the lightning. Hopefully the wipers is just a fuse 🤞 My Aunty lives in Wyoming 😊 enjoy your hotel sleep and see you on the next one ☺️🍓🌱
I know this video is 8 months ago, but RainX really does work to repel water in the event your windshield wipers stop working again (i trust they've been fixed).
Love all the places you travel! You must put go thousands of miles! You are a good long distance driver Do you have places states you won’t travel to! Best of luck!! Love your videos 👍🫶
@marliesyanke... please don't judge people by your own fears...tons of folks travel in cars/ vans/ RV's/ trucks on their own and most are not lonely.. don't assume that she is...
Do you ever meet up with your followers? And if so, I'm a 56 years old well 57 on Thursday lol September 28th. Nana and won't to travel,but for the first time I don't want to be alone. I sound like a chicken but I'll admit it I'm a little scared. Would you ever consider it please?
It’s something I’m beginning to consider but I think that’s tomorrow and it’s most likely a travel day for me. I do hope you have an absolutely wonderful day tomorrow on your birthday!! 🎉 🥳 and I will certainly post about any channel meetups in the future. Sending you many birthday wishes!! ✨🎂✨
Isn't Sage prohibited from being cut? Only Natives can pick...not sure if thats true... In California they are protected...I also want some but I'm scared, don't want to go to jail!!!❤😂😂
White sage grows in Southern California and has laws protecting it, so I wouldn’t pick it. There are a lot of varieties of sage that are more widespread than white sage, and are okay to pick in small amounts, such as desert sage, jerusalem sage and culinary sage. Hopefully that helps!
My sister inlaw does door dash for supplemental income. I just don't see how driving long hours every day, putting wear and tear on your car to make a few extra bucks, is worth it. The numbers don't add up to me. Then you have to consider car repairs if you break down.
Why are you parked on the right side of the road for Europe, & the WRONG SIDE of the road for the Great US of A (parked on the left hand side - facing a car head on)??? 😂🙃.

@@justrowan you are amazing
completely agree! something very nice about this girl an listening to her❤
@@brandy_lishTotally down to earth. What u see is what u get. That's what is so endearing about her channel. Nothing fake or phony about this girl.😊
Those storms are incredible, and your windscreen wipers stopped. A scarey situation.
I love watching …you’re amazing …we have had rain for over 14 days and thank god I can watch all your videos ….🇦🇺🦋
I use that seasoning all the time! I love all the varieties they have.
Me relaja ver llover desde un coche o cabaña, aquí en Málaga, España, llueve muy poco☀️
I am addicted to watching your videos. I have been binge watching for days. I love your personality and your honesty. ❤😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you! 😊💖
You inspire me Rowan. Your simplicity and contentment is humbling. Learning to appreciate what I have and not whine! God bless you!
Thank you! 🙏
Thanks Rowan you are very brave and beautiful! A truly strong and sweet character! Wishing you all the best out there!
Do your laundry when you check into a hotel. Most have machines. I’m really enjoying your adventures. Keep pushing through. ❤
Thank you!
Rowan, I just discovered your channel. It makes me happy. You teach me to enjoy the little things. We wear the same glasses BTW. Mine are readers. 🎉
What a beautiful sunrise on your drive. You get to see the best of the US. Lucky girl.
Hello again. It rains in Ireland a lot. I like LED lights , candles and a warm fire to cheer me up. It makes up for the wet days. Best wishes again.

Thank you!
Van life nightmare... man! Glad you're ok
The drive into Wyoming was beautiful and the rainbow amazing. Do you have a power station? Rowan storm chaser! Please be careful and safe travels!
I don’t have a power station but I’d like to get one at some point. I think it could fit right behind the drivers seat and recharge itself while I’m driving. Rowan storm chaser lol I think I’m looking more for the eye of the storm!
If it’s not raining g too much you can use rain-x in a pinch. Tge water heads right up, especially if you are driving pretty fast.
Quite a storm. I loved that glorious sunrise. And your cooking 😊 The cow, the desert grasses, those rock formations, beautiful.
Every storm passes. ❤
What a beautiful human being
Why do you van lifers get up so early in the morning? Why don’t you sleep until at least seven. Is it because you have to be out of that spot or something and then y’all start driving oh my God that would drive me freaking insane.Lol

I'm an Aussie and I'm addicted to you and your videos. 😊
I love grasses and plant all kinds . The birds love the seeds.
Try putting Rain-X on your windshield. I didn’t have wipers for a few months and it helped a lot! Especially on the highway. Works great! 😊
Thanks for that idea! I’ll check it out when I’m at autozone today.
@@justrowan Good luck 👍🏼
@@Rammer7 great idea

@@justrowanlove your channel but NO BUENO on pink hair😂
So, breathtaking scenery! Wow! We would all love to know that you have working wipers now? Be safe. Enjoy the journey. ❤
Thank you Laura! 💖 I’m working on the wiper situation- I’m hoping I can fix it myself, just haven’t had the time to tackle it yet. Fortunately for now there hasn’t been more rain!! ☀️
I thought you might be parked after dark in a downpour!
Beautiful sunrise and love your music

She never said it would be permanent. 😮

Do you have places states you won’t travel to!
Best of luck!! Love your videos 👍🫶
starbucks instant coffee is pretty good for future. I enjoy your videos safe journeys
I admire your courage to travel all over. I wonder if you ever had scary moments around your van at night. Its such a lonely life.
I imagine it's very freeing, but I'd definitely want a dog with me for company and companionship ❤️
@marliesyanke... please don't judge people by your own fears...tons of folks travel in cars/ vans/ RV's/ trucks on their own and most are not lonely.. don't assume that she is...
@@akissaday11She had a dog. Maybe I missed something along her journey. She hasn't mentioned it??😮
She still has Ruby, and she's really growing. Rowan put up a note yesterday , she had to take a few days off for family. She'll be back.

Do you use door dash app directions when dashing or google maps?
Usually I use the DoorDash app but sometimes it doesn’t work and it redirects me to google maps
Get those rain/wind guards for your windows and you can crack them a couple inches and rain won't get in
Good idea! I had them on my Corolla and they were great!
It's making my moment!!! What a wonderful phrase. ✨
I love to do one dish curry recipes as well although I am keto so my additions are a little different.
Great photography in these videos! Glad you made it to someplace safe.

Yes, but she don't have to pay rent......

Why are you parked on the right side of the road for Europe, & the WRONG SIDE of the road for the Great US of A (parked on the left hand side - facing a car head on)??? 😂🙃.
