    Once again, there’s a scammer in the comments. We did our best to find all of their comments and delete them.
    We will never, ever reply to a comment asking anyone to message us on Telegram or any other site. All announcements will happen on a video, including whoever gets the postcard.
    Sorry about that, everyone 😅

    I swear Tia was glowing, she looked amazing. Happy and excited. The timelapse was beautiful. The cacti looked awesome. I read that Joshua Trees got their name from Mormon immigrants. They were named after Joshua from the Old Testament. They felt that the branches looked like arms raised in supplication to God. I hope you guys have a wonderful first van-life adventure.

    Hi guys, I've been following you for some time and really have enjoyed your videos. Your plans are to go to Australia soon and since you've just gotten into van live, I thought you might like to know about some van-life you-tubers who are now in Tasmania and are planning to sell their self-converted van. You may already know about this but their channel is "Philly and Keely", a Northern Ireland couple who are quirky and fun. They came to Australia about six months ago and did a simple conversion of a van. Now their trip is coming to an end and their latest video just came out where they talk about selling the van. It has served them well with no problems (to my knowledge) If this sound interesting, contact them soon. I think their videos are pretty current. You can watch their videos when they first came to Australia to check out how they found and converted the van.
    PS. I lived in Sedona for 40 years and just sold my house two years ago. We probably know some of the same people!

    If you have time a lap around the Salton Sea is interesting with its many sights to see, Bombay beach, Salvation mountain, Slab City and the mud pots are pretty cool, go searching for wild obsidian.
    Joshua tree National Park was awesome, I’d never seen Joshua trees either.
    Happy adventuring guys.
