  • I hope this video brings you a sense of calmness. Spend the day with my dog and I as we explore deep in the mountains of British Columbia. A typical Saturday living out of my subaru outback, hiking for majority of the day, then cooking a yummy dinner. New outdoor adventure videos every Thursday!

    To strengthen the ankle (before or after injury) while seated like at a computer or TV, spell the alphabet with the toes. Exaggerate the movement of each letter to the limits of food movement. This has been recommended by an orthopedic surgeon in the past. Also, doing squats can strengthen the legs, decreasing chance of injury. Bulgarian split squats are what I do and it takes a little time to practice but they allow workout of one leg at a time. Household items can be used as weight. Plenty of videos online showing what to do.

The videos I've watched so far are the longer "living out of my car" ones, and I'd be interested -- when you include cooking at the end -- to see how you do clean up while carrying (to me) such a small amount of water. Maybe you show that in other videos, but it might be a future topic if you don't. Thanks so much for doing this channel!!
