    Catherine, you are the last person to ever rant. This is EXACTLY the part of UA-cam that absolutely upsets me - folks who believe it is any of their business to ask some of the most intrusive questions imaginable. It is incomprehensible for me to intrude into your life and I only hope they would tolerate the same exact questions being asked of them by, frankly any complete stranger. I mean I get it, to all of us you are familiar, genuine, pleasant and talented. But with few exceptions, we are nearly anonymous to you. It’s none of our business who goes along with you, if you travel fulltime, and a host of numerous personal things. I am grateful that you share your immense talents with us and am grateful that you have a companion that shares your zest for adventure and natural beauty. I realize your independence and faith to travel solo, but as a Dad of 2 daughters (and a son who is just as independent as you!) I am glad that you have a companion along. Keep trusting your gut. We love your content (my next trip to CA will include the Alabama Hills!). Safe travels Catherine.

    No matter what the case may be with Joey, be it best friends or otherwise, past or present, he is a lucky man to be able to enjoy overnight hikes in breathtaking venues with an awesome lady .. and his commentaries and filming contributions add an extra dynamic to the channel .. he is top notch.

    You responded to these questions with class.
    People can be down right rude and they can be opinionated. There are some that want to bully others if they can.
    You are fortunate to have someone like Joey with you for many reasons. Safety and chores come to mind.
    My advice is to live your life and do what makes you happy and safe. People will still love you and follow your channel.

    No worries, Catherine. I’m willing to bet that 99% of your followers love your content, and see you as a sweet, caring, talented person. I pray for you and for your safety out there. I think you have mentioned that your family has had some issues this year, and we understand the desire to help out! I, too, naturally wondered about Joey😀, It wasn’t necessary to share about him, but it’s probably satisfied the curiosity of a lot of us! So glad you can have a traveling companion. That, too, is absolutely understandable. We’re not built to be by ourselves indefinitely. Lord bless!

More power to you, you are a wonderful human being and I assure most of us feel that way. Please continue to enjoy what you do and NEVER feel the need to explain it. I admire your work and skills.

    Hi Catherine, you do not owe us an explanation of your personal life or justify dog ownership, why you support your family, how much time you’re on the road. I e been watching you as long as you’ve been on the road, and anyone who has been watching this long, knows you are a woman of integrity and superior work ethics. I understand peoples curiosities, but it’s quite another to expect an explanation. I don’t wonder about your relationship with Joey, I’m just grateful you are friends that support each other and that you are not ready to quit. Thank you Cat and happy trails.

  • @leestamm3187

    You do a terrific job with all aspects of your channel. Your personal life is your own business and not an obligatory topic of conversation. I find it quite annoying when people have the pompous arrogance to make judgemental assumptions and comments in that regard. You have a great channel that regularly brings beauty and enjoyment to thousands of us. Don't change a thing.

You should’ve been there a long time ago because you create such awesome videos I’ve been with you for five years watching your videos people don’t forget to push that little subscribe and thumbs up button for her, it does help.

    You don’t owe anyone an explanation, but your sincerity and openness are part of what we admirer about you. Your videos are topnotch and I know how much work you put in to them, and appreciate it. I do some gaming videos for fun and I am not “trying” to grow my channel, and have no plans to monetize if ever I could. I am a retired person now, but I was self-employed for most of my working life so I do understand that ALL of the work to provide for yourself and build your business falls to YOU. So you go girl! I admire your grit. You’re terrific! ❤
    Also: I am glad you backpack with Joey. It’s probably a bit safer to go with a pal and of course sharing those experiences is a joy. We really enjoy seeing those gorgeous hikes to remote areas that we couldn’t go. So yay, Joey!

  • @katchipw

  • @cheryl7917
    @cheryl7917 Місяць тому +2

    I've been following you for probably close to 4 years. I retired 6 months before Covid hit so I started watching videos during covid about traveling as a single woman in an RV. Your videos caught my attention because even though you can pretend to be anybody you want to be on UA-cam, and I believe many people do pretend, you seemed to be the real deal. There was no drama or BS included in your channel which was/is appealing to me. I have always found your stories to be entertaining and informative, you have a calm soothing voice and your narrative is pleasant and thoughtful, your videography is stunning. I admire what you do and the courage you have to be on the road by yourself. The quality of your videos show the hard work and dedication you put into creating them. You have been a great inspiration to me and my travels, even though I only do extended travels and wandering and don't actually live in my van. I have a home in Utah and look for your rig when I'm wandering the state in my van. You would be one of the few content creators I'd love to run into and have a chat with. :) It's no ones business what goes on in your personal life and I think its great you keep the majority of that to yourself. You displayed great integrity with this video. Happy and safe continued travels to you!

  • @TheWanderingWulfs
    @TheWanderingWulfs Місяць тому +3

    Catherine, you are one of the biggest reasons why my husband John and I go out hiking and backpacking as much as we do now, and we hope to be traveling full time in just a few short years. You're such an inspiration and your personal life is definitely no one's business. You handle everyone's questions with kindness and care and if I'm ever fortunate enough to see you out on the trails someday, I hope I can give you a hug and tell you thank you in person. We're so glad you have Joey as a friend to keep you company and to go on fun trips with! Keep the awesome videos coming! Take care and safe travels!!! 🥰 - Rachel

Glad to see you setting boundaries for yourself out here 🥰🥰🥰

If you don't like it, move on, go watch something else. No need to be a downer to everyone else. And finally, Cat's relationship with Joey is no ones business! Personally, I am always happy when he is along in the backcountry, it is much safer. See ya next Sunday.

    It’s easy for someone to say you shouldn’t care about others comments on your channel but I disagree. It’s not the same as a comment about you. Your channel is your business. Your viewers are your costumers. To improve your product it would be wise to listen to your customers.
    In this case you did it so well. You explained how it works in an articulate, intelligent, tactful way. Great job!

    Great video! I think it's needed to let people know that creators are NOT free-range targets for the keyboard wanna-be's who never get out into the world, make the effort to capture & share the moments they are experiencing. Ignore them!
    You are doing a great job, creating what YOU want, and sharing with people who care. The few that are being idiots don't get it and never will.
    You do you. We'll just come along and watch.

    We enjoy your channel and content. Sad you felt the need to explain how you make your living and your personal relationships. Glad you have a chance travel with Joey and family and enjoy companionship. It makes your videos interesting and changing things periodically is good for you and your viewers. Keep up being you Cat, you are a kind and caring person. Very talented and fun to watch, thanks for the content.

    Thanks for sharing your honesty. Having a friend like Joey enables you to explore adventures that you wouldn’t do on your own. I
    have many places shown in your videos and having an en experienced capable person like Joey can make all the difference. Plus he is a good photographer, which is a plus. Keep on doing things your way until you feel the need to change. I’m older now, so I understand. Most my age can’t do what I’m still doing, so I feel blessed. If you’re around Escalante or Hanksville this week, you might run into us old folks still out on adventures. I enjoy your content and adventures, so keep on keeping on. Thanks for all you share with us!!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍

    Catherine,
    I think you are very brave to share your business with us. I think it is unfortunate that you felt it was necessary to explain your private details with us and hopefully you won't think it a requirement to keep our participation going forward. I watch your videos to see many places that I will probably not have time to visit in this lifetime. I thank you for your efforts that have enriched my life.
    Be well and stay safe,
    bf

    Catherine, You do you and what life draws you to do. Everyone walks their path alone and no one should judge you. Walk the path that your spirit guides you to walk. Love what your doing! I'm 70 with cancer and needing heart surgery so my path is just that, MY Path.

    You are a class act. You should never have to explain yourself to those who may "accuse" you of not living full time in your rig. Just because you are on YT doesn’t mean you have to disclose everything about you or your family's private life. It doesn't matter how long you live in your rig, what matters is you CHOOSE to share your outdoor adventures with us at a time and place of your choosing. No viewer should ever expect anything more. In terms of Joey, i myself had wondered if there was something more between you, but again, it doesn't matter if there is or isn't, what matters is that you are having fun backpacking with him and, like you said, are going to places you might not othewise go to alone. It is safer, and you seem to be having alot of fun, so have at it! Thank you for the work that you put in to make your videos, my wife and I look forward to watching every Sunday night while having our dinner. Take care! 😊

No, no one has the right to invade your private life with silly questions. That is why they call it your ‘private life’. Goodness!
    You deserve to hit 100K subscribers. I hope it happens soon! Thanks again for all you do. Have a great Spring! 💐

    You're done a good job with this video. As far as viewer leaving your channel it's because of your revenue increase on your channel. The creator started with a small van and after a few years he moved up to a Mercedes-Benz sprinter van. The creator filmed each step of building the van out. The van and build out was on 200,000. He said he had been doing Van life long enough that he deserved the new van. That's why some long term viewers leave channels.

    Cat- I’m so happy you get to do what you love and be your own boss. That is truly the American dream. You’re so genuine, honest, and open about everything. It’s very refreshing to see a person on UA-cam who is so centered and grounded. And in my opinion very enlightened. I love that you bring sights, sounds and scenery to so many around the world who likely would never be able to travel to those places. And those are just a few reasons why I love sponsoring you and your work. You’re doing great. Keep up the good work. 😃🙏🏻❤️

    I moved into my Tacoma truck camper 4 years ago. I maintain a full time job and have saved 152k so far which I’ve invested into dividend paying stocks. In a couple years I’ll be semi retired and hitting the road. I’ve already bought 10 acres of rural land in Arizona which I’ll use as a home base. Grew up as a ward of the state. You don’t need to come from money to live this lifestyle. Just plan ahead and sacrifice.

    I was not going to ask as it is not our business, but I will confess that I was hoping you and Joey were bringing each other some happiness. It sounds like you are and that is wonderful. Again, none of our business and thanks for the beautiful scenery in your videos. Disabled so I could never see many of the places you go without the videos.

    Great video Cat. I'm glad you put it out there. It's ridiculous how some people think and act. It seems they are just looking for something to complain about or to catch you doing something.

    I began posting on UA-cam so our family and friends could be a part of our journey. I'm not in it to make money or support myself. You're doing a great job with this career.
    I also appreciate your integrity in regard to keeping your private life private as well as not exposing your friends or family to the public.
    BTW, I think you and I bought the same necklace about the same time. I noticed yours about the same time I started wearing mine. We have good taste!
    Happy travels!

    Sure enjoy your videos. Joey is incredible. I saw one of his videos when he had it on UA-cam. He was backpacking to some extremely remote lake in Glacier park. The lake had a strange name so I don't remember the name of it. It was so beautiful. I would think that under 20 people have ever hiked into that lake. God bless Joey for helping you out! God bless you for hanging in there living in the trailer. Wish you the best!
