I love you & Frank so much. Watching your journey is something I look forward to & love. Don't let those hateful comments over take all the wonderful comments because believe me most of us absolutely love you & Frank🥰💜 P.S. I ordered 2 magnets & I love them so much🥰 Keep being you because I think you are a beautiful person😍
Awww man, that’s a shame the post office there didn’t do postage marks on the envelopes. I ordered and received stickers from you recently and I was surprised that there wasn’t a postage mark and now I know why. I love the Frank sticker! Try not to let hateful people suck the joy from your life. They are jealous that you are actually living your life while they are wasting theirs being hateful to others. The best way to deal with people like that is to delete, block, or ignore them. They are not worth your (or mine) time. You have thousands of followers who like you very much. Try to remind yourself of this every day and know in your heart that it’s these people who matter, not those party-poopy-heads. ❤
Thanks for being honest and sharing the ups and downs of your journey Amanda, we're praying the mosquitoes die off by the time we head up to Tuk, the squirrel teasing Frank was priceless .. Cheers
😊😂 Offended because you're talking. Hum. I come to listen to you. Yes, great answer, Amanda. It's about you, Frank, and what you're doing. Keep talking, Amanda. We are out here to listen and watch and learn from your channel tidelinetoalpine. Strange as this may sound. Lol 😊💜💚💛😊 Thank you for courage to hang on, having faith to believe in the bigger plan in goals you had made.💛💛💛 coffee cheers.
Showing the difficult parts, the reality adds so much to filmmaking and 'storytelling'. 💞 personally I think it's really brave of you to put yourself out there online. thanks for your content! I'm so sorry about the stamp issue, that's so unfortunate and out of your control!
I don't understand some people. They just cant seem to appreciate others doing something for themselves. Makes me wonder what is so wrong in their lives that to see another happy, peaceful causes anger. What do the locals do about the mosquitoes. Glad to see you made it thru. Be proud of yourself and the memories created. Safe Travels
One I talked to said she used TWO CANS OF DEET in a day just to do her job outside and it was still horrible 😱 I think people definitely go out more when it’s windy and stay in or use lots of chemicals when it’s not.
I connect with your humanness. There are a lot of plastic, boring fake people on here but you are deeply authentic and real, so thank you for sharing the parts of yourself you choose to share with us. Other people are sometimes empty themselves and take out their emptiness on you, and it is not ok. Its sad people are rude. I hope the kind people much outweigh the rude ones. Love to Frank and bright blessings to you both.
Thank you Amanda for sharing your life and adventures with us. Just know that those rude comments are not about you , they are from some very tortured souls that seek out targets to project their garbage onto because they can't stand themselves. If it is not you it is someone else. It is not personal, although normal people cannot help but feel hurt and attacked . That is their goal. You and Frank are loved , and we wish you only the best. Safe travels and we look forward to your upcoming videos. ❤
I’m happy you found some comfort for you and Frank and that things improved, at least for that time period. I don’t understand why people watch long videos or don’t just click out if they’re not interested, that’s what I do and I never feel the need to leave a nasty comment. As always safe travels and I for one enjoy listening to what you are saying. 🦋
You cant quit now, you, Chrome and others inspired me to get my own van and see my country. Weekend trips for now, but i go full time in the spring. Im hoping to meet all my inspirations somewhere.
Ignore the nasty comments. In my opinion they are jealous of your ability to do what you do. Nothing wrong with sharing your difficulties. I find by doing so it purges my negative thoughts to enable me to go on. Here is to you seeing your journey to your goal!
Cheers to clean cheeks! I was so happy to get my sticker - thank you! I find your talking to be very informative and often uplifting. As a solo camper, I really appreciate your outlook on getting through the tough times on your own. Thank you!
I lived in Inuvik for 5 years total great place and has a place in my heart. I was a chef at the Peppermill Restaurant. Awesome food and a great place to work. kind of miss the deep north Now living in Mexico, lol Take care friend. stay safe cheers from 2 Canadians living in Mexico. ✌🏽💖
Holy that’s certainly a change of environment!! The north is certainly a special place even with its challenges and I hope someday to make it to Mexico
Mosquitoes are horrible everywhere, this year. It’s insane, but watching your videos, it is very clear you have experienced Hell on Earth. The screens are a wonderful idea. Good on ya that you’ve continued on. If you hadn’t, Frank would have missed out on squirrel hunting, and you would have missed the goal of this trip. Hoorah, for you (and us, actually)!
F anyone that watches to critique you or your style of documenting your journey. That's why I don't think I could have a channel. That being said, so much respect for your perseverance, thank you for sharing it, it ripples!
Watched many peoples videos. Yup, mosquitoes are awful. It’s soul crushing when you have a pet & can’t cool yourself, knowing your pet is wearing a "fur jacket". I’m so happy you’re doing better. Take Care
The mosquitos are horrible here in Idaho, USA this year as well. They are aggressive and even mosquito spray with DEET does not deter them. Thank you for keeping it real with us.
I'm so happy you didn't quite, and I'm glad you found a nice place for Frank and you. I love to see him so happy you are a really nice mum. Thanks for the video
I love your comments about real life ❤ So much of You Tube is fake. You portray reality. Some people are just mean! If they don't like your videos they don't have to watch. Don't change for the Karen's. Do your thing ❤
Aaaaa those who judge are just jealous they will never go on a kick ass journey and I thank you for sharing the ups and downs of life on the road cause life isn’t all rainbows n butterfly’s and pretty views…the struggle is real and I love how you share it with us and why we keep coming back for more! We love you Amanda and Frank!!!!❤🙋♀️🪵🔥🌲🐿
Talk all you want, about anything you want.... How privileged are we to have you film all this wonderful scenery and sharing all your real-life adventures. Never Apologise for being you 🧡🐾🧡🚐🧡
Hi Amanda, wow you’ve had quite a trip! I know about the mosquitos and the horse flies that don’t just bite but they take a huge hunk of your skin fora trophy! It’s really trying, but I’m so glad you got thru it! I’ve been to the North on my Dads boat in the 80’s and times have changed travel-wise but the mosquitos and bugs never do! Wanted to say that I’ve been following you keenly, never been as far North as you, but I’m really happy for you not giving up! You’ve almost finished your goal, and your certificate will look great on the wall of your van! You are really a super adventurous woman! Have a safe trip back down!
Oh I have some scars from the flies on this trip 😱 at least they aren’t so numerous even if they’re rather insistent. I always say that once a horse fly chooses you as a target it’s you or them and I’m getting pretty good a killing them 💪
I love your videos and you keep it real. I was actually suffering with you as you described the mosquitoes. I look forward to your next video, ignore the rude people delete and block. much love to you and Frank.
Don't give these humans space in your head! They are not worth it! You are an inspiration to many and that's all that counts! Give Frank a big hug from me Love and hugs from Johannesburg SA ❤❤❤
hey amanda, your authenticity is way more beautiful than the boring, rudeness of some people's comments! thanks for being real! and stoked ye have completed your journey to tuktoyaktuk! congrats and yaaaay!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 continued travel mercies and blessings. 🕊
You do you! Some people need to learn that if they have nothing nice to say they should keep their mouths shut. I am loving your solo adventure to the Arctic, i admire your courage in undertaking such a challenge.
Thank you, Amanda for being true to who you are.👍😊 I sincerely respect you for that... aaand for all the wisdom you impart.😇 It is absolutely a "privilege" to watch you! 🙂 Hugs from a stranger! xx
Don’t focus on the rude comments they come from people who are not happy in their own lives. They are not beautiful people nor do they have a awesome Frank to Love 🐾 ❤️ 🐾
I love your freakin vlogs..exactly the way you do them..and that's my opinion..soooo..just know that you lift my spirits each and every time you share your life..happy that I found you..I hope you can feel the love and appreciation I have for you and Frank..blessings to you in every way..ty..xoxo 🥰👍✌🖐🤟🤪
So glad you survived the mosquitoes !! Live in Alaska, this year they are worse than I have seen in years. The constant rains since April has not helped. I almost have gone insane on sensory overload just trying to plant garden & yard work. Can't imagine being stuck in the van. Congratulations to your strength & perservance !! I have pets so I totally get the anxiety from trying to keep them comfortable . You are an open hearted truthful person. Always stay true to yourself & the naysayers will eventually fall away and go "bug" someone else, ( cause they have no real life of their own). By the end of the video, happy to see you & Frank in the sun & wind; minus mosquitoes & naysayers !! ❤🎉
You’re taking me to a part of the Country that I will never travel to so thank you for taking the time to make those videos I’m excited to see the rest of them when you get them edited. Just delete the UA-cam dweebs that make rude comments, they are here because they don’t have a life of their own, 🥴 That didn’t come out right 😜 The rest of us have lives and I can’t speak for the others but mine just isn’t as adventurous as the one you are living. 🤗 now go have fun and drive safe ❤
I’m continuing to Pray that things improve and you & Frank can have an Amazing journey the rest of the way as well as coming back You are SO STRONG & Such an Incredible Woman 👼🏼🙏🏼🤗❤️🐶
One of my favorite BB quotes Brene Brown “If you are not in the arena getting your ass kicked on occasion, I am not interested in or open to your feedback. There are a million cheap seats in the world today filled with people who will never be brave with their own lives, but will spend every ounce of energy they have hurling advice and judgement at those of us trying to dare greatly. Their only contributions are criticism, cynicism, and fear-mongering. If you're criticizing from a place where you're not also putting yourself on the line, I'm not interested in your feedback.” Brené Brown
You are such an adventurer with amazing strength and creativity. Of course you are talking about yourself. This is YOUR life and your adventure story. That’s why everyone watches you. You are not boring, you are not shy and your honesty is a breath of fresh air. And your sweet pooch is your best friend and your love. There is no shortage of negative people in this world. They don’t even like their own lives and the negative jargon they lay on you is out of that dissatisfaction unfortunately. I’m sorry you hear from these “small minded” people. Kudos to you for seeking a more joyful life with all its great wonders and annoying mishaps. Keep on truckin’ darlin’! You got this…….
Surprising sounds on this episode: The animal Frank enjoyed (I couldn't see if it was a pica or a chipmunk - something small), and the delightful sound of _rain!_ Thanks so much for sharing the adventure - tough spots too!
Your story telling is amazing and what's even more amazing is how you said the full name of the town 'Tuk' (spelling??)multiple times without blinking 😂 I can't spell it let alone pronounce it! Screw the haters Sis, I enjoy your videos & live vicariously through them😊
I love watching and listening to you and Frank❤❤❤🐾🐾🐾 Its sad that these days seem to be a time that people feel entitled to be rude, snarky and hurtful. And social media has become their playground platforms. Its a sad state. I'm glad that you are strong enuf to look past that $hit. I have grown to love that "Block" button. Much love and light to you both.
Miserable people just say miserable things. Unhappiness in their own lives makes them unhappy to see others happy. I love your videos and commentary. And Frank what a lucky guy to be living such a full life by your side.
Thank you for another wonderful video. Those bugs were horrible. I am glad you could move on. You are wonderful, kind person. I wish you and Frank the best.
So glad you found the strength to get through the mosquito issues and push north to a better location to regroup for the last part of your northbound journey. Really looking forward to the next video. Wishing you all the blessings you deserve, which i believe are boundless.❤😊❤ Kiss Frank for me.
So glad you battled through the mozzie invasion. So lovely to see you and Frank happy and continuing your travels. Your such a strong lady. Sending hugs to you both from Sydney Australia xxxx
Frank looks so happy when you wheel him aroud 😅 Thank you for taking me along in a trip that I could not take (allergic to mosquito bites+ chronic fatigue) I travel vicariously through you. 🙂 Enjoy your adventure!
Congratulations Amanda and Frank for reaching your destination!!!!! What an awesome adventure, I enjoyed every episode 😍. Keep on doing what you’re doing, enjoy the journey as this is your life story. And for those who cannot give a positive feedback , well I’m sure their negativity is a reflection of their unhappy, unfulfilled life . Looking forward to your next video!
The next time I watch your video you will be at your destination. I don't know if I could handle all of those bugs either. I am almost 69 years old now, and when I was 19 my roommate and I set out for Alaska. My roommate was an Apache. We had been doing too many micro dots and didn't count the cost of such an adventure. We got to Utah when we realized that we were woefully unprepared. Ever since 1974 I've been saying someday I will go to Alaska, but you have met your goal. Congratulations! You have made the grade. Someday you will be my age and you can tell generations to come of your adventures. Cheers! Vaughn
I hope your life is blessed in the future with all the things that has happened to you. Breeze and shade with Frank hanging out in open shade is all that matters for time in the Northern parts. Great video Amanda!🎉. Bathing without bugs or just not having to fend off intruders that think you are delicious, is a blessing of sorts. Be safe and keep excellent.
Hi Amanda and Frank, I really look forward to your videos. And your wise transparent talks are very much appreciated as they are inspiring. I love that you are graciously sharing your emotional journey as well. I think I would wear a beekeeper 's outfit to deal with those insects. Ugggh! Fun Safe Travels you two beautiful souls 😘💜💙
Having experienced some really serious mosquito issues in Manitoba a couple of weeks ago, I related to this video so much. The pain from all the bites (my Thermacell was similarly ineffective) just really did a number on me emotionally. I'm glad you were able to pick yourself up and keep going! Love to you and Frank.
Happy you pushed through and are back to enjoying your trip of a lifetime! You have so many of us cheering you and Frank on 🥰 loving the views, helpful tips and Franks sweet self!
I'm glad you kept at it. As they say it's not the destination it's the journey. Lol😂. You learned more about yourself and used your coping skills to get you by. I always hated the guilt that comes with quitting. YAY YOU!!❤
Yo I’m go girl !!!! Sending all the positive energy I can spare ( I’m in Phoenix and we have had hot days 119*!!) but no mosquitoes in my nether regions THANK GOD !!. Gotta give it to you you’ve got the fortitude of a lumberjack had I been in Northern BC for the summer ( a dream of mine) that’s where I would have stayed 😎. We all have our dreams and your fulfilling yours and that’s awesome!!. Frank is taking in all in stride as Frank does 😉 you keep heading north and I’ll keep watching live your channel. Laura melting in AZ ❤️.
Living in Manitoba all those years, the mosquitoes were bad, but the areas you've been to are on another level 😮.. you did it, yay! Great to be along for the ride..😊
This is so awesome. YOU DID IT!! WAHOO! I'm sure you're feeling pretty good about yourself. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. And I'm so.glad you were able to SHOWER!! 😅😅❤❤❤❤
Wow. It’s like been an episode of naked and afraid! I’m happy for you that you were able to push forward so you can enjoy your dream trip! Good for you!😊
The person that made that rude comment should go find another channel that they would interpret as pleasant. Don't even stress about those uneducated people who pop in & out & think they know it all. I have a lot of joy seeing & hearing about Your Adventures. I enjoy watching every aspect of your life with Frank.
I like listening to what you have to say, as well as seeing the beautiful places you're going. Funny watching Frank's tail wag when you were taking him down to the water on his chariot. One happy dog!
We are all so much more than what we say. Adoring your open hearted communiques the sound of your voice joyful and laughing and being human that notices life in its myriad of ways. I like to hear others experience perspectives being reflected. shows spirit. Also, its b.c. peoples culture to talk things thru. BC people talk and talk and talk about stuff then potluck and jam. Lol got stickers and appreciate them so much..thank you.
Mosquitos! Never fun but you sound like you had more than a person should have to take. I'm on the east coast of the U.S. My issue when I go south is no seeums. They love me more than I love them. I usually end up in urgent care or at minimum the pharmacy. Thank you and Frank for taking us along on this great adventure. Safe and happy travels!
So sorry about the mosquitos! I honestly wouldn't have blamed you if you didn't make it, but I'm glad you did! Mosquitos are bad here in Texas too, but I don't think as bad as that! Yikes. My 2 year old cocker spaniel came rushing to the computer when he heard the squirrel 🤣
You be you and try not to let people get to you, I know its hard to do because people get mean. I’ve said this before on your page, Show off that smile and stay happy.
Fantastic episode Amanda ! So sorry that you've had your struggles with the mosquito's I've experienced them myself and they can truly drive you out of your mind...quickly. So pleased you were able to hang in there and press on despite the torment... You are a trooper ! Wishing you and Frank all the very best and thank you so very much for sharing your journey... it's epic !
Thank you for always sharing the good, bad and ugly. As a solo female van traveller myself - I appreciate you being vulnerable sometimes - as it makes me feel normal ❤ Frank’s heavy breathing is so calming😍
Awe you never have to apologize. I was so excited to get my postcards and stickers. If people are rude just delete their comment. They are likely jealous of your amazing, beautiful life. They are also likely envious of you adventurous spirit. Please don’t let them bring you down. Let us lift you up 🤗❤️
I always watch 'til the last second, Amanda. I appreciate that you keep it real, good or bad; hard or easy; chaotic or peaceful. And it helps, as well, that Frank is a joy to watch!
Love your videos! I love your sharing what you’re experiencing good and difficult. Sharing the difficult parts helps others feel they can take on new challenges. Even when it’s hard. Thanks for sharing Frank with us too! What a polite and lucky fella to be with you. ❤
I'm in Ontario and the mosquitoes are bad. I follow your channel because of you and love listening to you. And I love Frank and I love the way you take care of him. Personally I believe he is having a good quality of life. People out there please be kind to everyone. If you have nothing nice to say please keep it to yourself. Frank, Tom just had a birthday July 11th and I turned 65th July 8th. Amanda enjoy watching you and have nothing but the out most respect for you. I am glad that you didn't quit. You got this 👍 ❤😊
I would have been ugly crying and scratching in public. I enjoy hearing it all. Keeping it real. I'm not as fond of people as I use to be. Frank is so happy in the grass and his swims. That shower sounded amazing. I've never seen mosquitos like that. Are they the size of a chicken or What? ☮💜🐾
Oh dear. Please don't Don't pay any attention to the "rude" ones. And don't let them rent space in your beautiful mind. I am thrilled to know that my envelope with Frank's sticker came all the way from Tuk. Incredible! I'm going to write Tuk on the envelope so I will always remember where it came from Also, I am grateful that you inform us of the realities of driving to the "end of the road." I can't go there in person, so I'm traveling virtually with you and am fascinated with each leg of this trek. It's been amazing, and I am so thankful that you are kind enough to share all your experiences as you travel. Bravo!
‘One does not simply walk into Mordor’…. Although it may be easier than battling the mosquitos in the Arctic 😆
You are an intrepid, brave, strong woman! Here in Oregon, I am a mosquito magnet 😑 I love your videos, Frank is a goo goo boi 💖
I love you & Frank so much. Watching your journey is something I look forward to & love. Don't let those hateful comments over take all the wonderful comments because believe me most of us absolutely love you & Frank🥰💜
P.S. I ordered 2 magnets & I love them so much🥰
Keep being you because I think you are a beautiful person😍
Frank at the end made me feel so calm and relaxed, thank you 💙🐶🥰
Awww man, that’s a shame the post office there didn’t do postage marks on the envelopes. I ordered and received stickers from you recently and I was surprised that there wasn’t a postage mark and now I know why. I love the Frank sticker!

This travel adventure realness is really going to help someone else that was planning on going to the Arctic in the warm months.
Amanda please don’t let the naysayers get to you! You are important and valued by so many! Including me! ❤
I havent been here long but totally agree! Perfectly said! ❤❤
I concur..
@@GypsyJvan ❤️
ME TOO! 🤗
Thanks for being honest and sharing the ups and downs of your journey Amanda, we're praying the mosquitoes die off by the time we head up to Tuk, the squirrel teasing Frank was priceless .. Cheers
Oh I’m sure they’ll be fine when you go, this was a month ago and it’s already less. Tuk is also a pretty windy place as you’ll see in the next video.
The red squirrel with Frank....absolutely!
Those squirrels know exactly how to tease the dogs.
😊😂 Offended because you're talking. Hum.
I come to listen to you. Yes, great answer, Amanda. It's about you, Frank, and what you're doing. Keep talking, Amanda. We are out here to listen and watch and learn from your channel tidelinetoalpine. Strange as this may sound. Lol

I’m in the lost river area of Idaho, mosquitoes are awful and big this year! I’ve been using the repellent by Sawyer, working pretty good so far.
Idk what is worse, the mosquitos or the noseeums. LoL. Bugs do seem pretty abundant this year.
I'm in Idaho as well. Without a breeze, I am mostly in my camper or my Clam . Mosquitoes suck the joy out of the great outdoors.
I'm so happy you didn't quite, and I'm glad you found a nice place for Frank and you.
I love to see him so happy you are a really nice mum.
Thanks for the video
I love your comments about real life ❤ So much of You Tube is fake. You portray reality. Some people are just mean! If they don't like your videos they don't have to watch. Don't change for the Karen's. Do your thing ❤

Always stay true to yourself & the naysayers will eventually fall away and go "bug" someone else, ( cause they have no real life of their own). By the end of the video, happy to see you & Frank in the sun & wind; minus mosquitoes & naysayers !! ❤🎉
You’re taking me to a part of the Country that I will never travel to so thank you for taking the time to make those videos I’m excited to see the rest of them when you get them edited. Just delete the UA-cam dweebs that make rude comments, they are here because they don’t have a life of their own, 🥴 That didn’t come out right 😜 The rest of us have lives and I can’t speak for the others but mine just isn’t as adventurous as the one you are living. 🤗 now go have fun and drive safe ❤
I’m continuing to Pray that things improve and you & Frank can have an Amazing journey the rest of the way as well as coming back You are SO STRONG & Such an Incredible Woman 👼🏼🙏🏼🤗❤️🐶
One of my favorite BB quotes
Brene Brown
“If you are not in the arena getting your ass kicked on occasion, I am not interested in or open to your feedback. There are a million cheap seats in the world today filled with people who will never be brave with their own lives, but will spend every ounce of energy they have hurling advice and judgement at those of us trying to dare greatly. Their only contributions are criticism, cynicism, and fear-mongering. If you're criticizing from a place where you're not also putting yourself on the line, I'm not interested in your feedback.”
Brené Brown
You are such an adventurer with amazing strength and creativity. Of course you are talking about yourself. This is YOUR life and your adventure story. That’s why everyone watches you. You are not boring, you are not shy and your honesty is a breath of fresh air. And your sweet pooch is your best friend and your love. There is no shortage of negative people in this world. They don’t even like their own lives and the negative jargon they lay on you is out of that dissatisfaction unfortunately. I’m sorry you hear from these “small minded” people. Kudos to you for seeking a more joyful life with all its great wonders and annoying mishaps. Keep on truckin’ darlin’! You got this…….
I’m glad you didn’t give up! Keep up the great work. Glad to see you and Frank doing well.
Thank you for sharing your journey ✌️💞🤟
So happy you kept going. You're an inspiration. I so look forward to coming along with you on your journey.
Surprising sounds on this episode: The animal Frank enjoyed (I couldn't see if it was a pica or a chipmunk - something small), and the delightful sound of _rain!_ Thanks so much for sharing the adventure - tough spots too!
Squirrel! 🐿
And Frank snoring at the end...
Your story telling is amazing and what's even more amazing is how you said the full name of the town 'Tuk' (spelling??)multiple times without blinking 😂 I can't spell it let alone pronounce it! Screw the haters Sis, I enjoy your videos & live vicariously through them😊
Thanks for your honest video and comments. I appreciate it. Congratulations on making it to Tuktoyaktuk!
"It's my channel," exactly! You do you, and the haters can go away. Love your content! ❤
(Those mosquitoes, though! 😢)
Really enjoy ALL of your experiences, insights and adventures. Best wishes to you and Frank...and Happy Trails! 🌈🗻🌸🐾
I love watching and listening to you and Frank❤❤❤🐾🐾🐾
Its sad that these days seem to be a time that people feel entitled to be rude, snarky and hurtful. And social media has become their playground platforms. Its a sad state. I'm glad that you are strong enuf to look past that $hit. I have grown to love that "Block" button. Much love and light to you both.
You talking and showing things about yourself and the ups and downs is why we are here. ❤
Miserable people just say miserable things. Unhappiness in their own lives makes them unhappy to see others happy. I love your videos and commentary. And Frank what a lucky guy to be living such a full life by your side.
Thank you for another wonderful video. Those bugs were horrible. I am glad you could move on. You are wonderful, kind person. I wish you and Frank the best.
So glad you found the strength to get through the mosquito issues and push north to a better location to regroup for the last part of your northbound journey. Really looking forward to the next video. Wishing you all the blessings you deserve, which i believe are boundless.❤😊❤
Kiss Frank for me.
So glad you battled through the mozzie invasion. So lovely to see you and Frank happy and continuing your travels. Your such a strong lady. Sending hugs to you both from Sydney Australia xxxx
Frank looks so happy when you wheel him aroud 😅 Thank you for taking me along in a trip that I could not take (allergic to mosquito bites+ chronic fatigue) I travel vicariously through you. 🙂 Enjoy your adventure!
As long as you don't act like you are the only one that has to go through hard times because a lot of us go through rough times.
Congratulations Amanda and Frank for reaching your destination!!!!! What an awesome adventure, I enjoyed every episode 😍.
Keep on doing what you’re doing, enjoy the journey as this is your life story. And for those who cannot give a positive feedback , well I’m sure their negativity is a reflection of their unhappy, unfulfilled life .
Looking forward to your next video!
The next time I watch your video you will be at your destination. I don't know if I could handle all of those bugs either. I am almost 69 years old now, and when I was 19 my roommate and I set out for Alaska. My roommate was an Apache. We had been doing too many micro dots and didn't count the cost of such an adventure. We got to Utah when we realized that we were woefully unprepared. Ever since 1974 I've been saying someday I will go to Alaska, but you have met your goal. Congratulations! You have made the grade. Someday you will be my age and you can tell generations to come of your adventures. Cheers! Vaughn
I hope your life is blessed in the future with all the things that has happened to you. Breeze and shade with Frank hanging out in open shade is all that matters for time in the Northern parts. Great video Amanda!🎉. Bathing without bugs or just not having to fend off intruders that think you are delicious, is a blessing of sorts. Be safe and keep excellent.
I feel ya!!!!! Bugs are the worst. Good for you continuing on your journey!!! Definitely be proud of yourself!! 🐾🙏🏻✌🏻
Hi Amanda and Frank, I really look forward to your videos. And your wise transparent talks are very much appreciated as they are inspiring. I love that you are graciously sharing your emotional journey as well.
I think I would wear a beekeeper 's outfit to deal with those insects. Ugggh!
Fun Safe Travels you two beautiful souls 😘💜💙
Having experienced some really serious mosquito issues in Manitoba a couple of weeks ago, I related to this video so much. The pain from all the bites (my Thermacell was similarly ineffective) just really did a number on me emotionally. I'm glad you were able to pick yourself up and keep going! Love to you and Frank.
It's your channel! We are here to see you, Frank, and the journey. Talk as much as you want.
Awful mosquitoes! Glad you and Frank enjoyed your trip!
I really enjoy the sights from the Chariot Cam. That was a great idea.😁
Happy you pushed through and are back to enjoying your trip of a lifetime! You have so many of us cheering you and Frank on 🥰 loving the views, helpful tips and Franks sweet self!
I'm glad you kept at it. As they say it's not the destination it's the journey. Lol😂. You learned more about yourself and used your coping skills to get you by. I always hated the guilt that comes with quitting. YAY YOU!!❤
Yup, in the end the mosquitos are easier than the regret of quitting
Yo I’m go girl !!!! Sending all the positive energy I can spare ( I’m in Phoenix and we have had hot days 119*!!) but no mosquitoes in my nether regions THANK GOD !!. Gotta give it to you you’ve got the fortitude of a lumberjack had I been in Northern BC for the summer ( a dream of mine) that’s where I would have stayed 😎. We all have our dreams and your fulfilling yours and that’s awesome!!. Frank is taking in all in stride as Frank does 😉 you keep heading north and I’ll keep watching live your channel.
Laura melting in AZ ❤️.
I’ve heard about the heat down there and I’m sending cooling thoughts your way! 🧊
Following your adventures from Australia. Thank you for keeping it real. ❤
Please don’t quit. You’re an inspiration to those who want to do what you’re doing. You’re stories and videos are awesome.
Living in Manitoba all those years, the mosquitoes were bad, but the areas you've been to are on another level 😮.. you did it, yay! Great to be along for the ride..😊
This is so awesome. YOU DID IT!! WAHOO! I'm sure you're feeling pretty good about yourself. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. And I'm so.glad you were able to SHOWER!! 😅😅❤❤❤❤
Wow. It’s like been an episode of naked and afraid! I’m happy for you that you were able to push forward so you can enjoy your dream trip! Good for you!😊
The person that made that rude comment should go find another channel that they would interpret as pleasant. Don't even stress about those uneducated people who pop in & out & think they know it all. I have a lot of joy seeing & hearing about Your Adventures. I enjoy watching every aspect of your life with Frank.
That's what we are watchhing you for ----- we love you and FRANK and your fun adventures
I like listening to what you have to say, as well as seeing the beautiful places you're going. Funny watching Frank's tail wag when you were taking him down to the water on his chariot. One happy dog!
We are all so much more than what we say. Adoring your open hearted communiques
the sound of your voice joyful and laughing and being human that notices life in its myriad of ways. I like to hear others experience perspectives being reflected.
shows spirit. Also, its b.c. peoples culture to talk things thru. BC people talk and talk and talk about stuff then potluck and jam. Lol
got stickers and appreciate them so much..thank you.
Well done for getting through that bad patch!
❤ Admire you for getting out there and adventuring. Mosquitoes are the most awful things for so many reasons.
Mosquitos! Never fun but you sound like you had more than a person should have to take. I'm on the east coast of the U.S. My issue when I go south is no seeums. They love me more than I love them. I usually end up in urgent care or at minimum the pharmacy. Thank you and Frank for taking us along on this great adventure. Safe and happy travels!
I’ve had noseeums and black flies and horse flies too but I forget about them because the mosquitoes are so bad 😆
So sorry about the mosquitos! I honestly wouldn't have blamed you if you didn't make it, but I'm glad you did! Mosquitos are bad here in Texas too, but I don't think as bad as that! Yikes. My 2 year old cocker spaniel came rushing to the computer when he heard the squirrel 🤣
You be you and try not to let people get to you, I know its hard to do because people get mean. I’ve said this before on your page, Show off that smile and stay happy.
Those people with bad comments are just troll Dont bother with them just block them. Really excited for you that you reached artic CONGRATULATIONS ❤❤
Your hair is beautiful. It's getting so long ..... Love it.
Fantastic episode Amanda ! So sorry that you've had your struggles with the mosquito's I've experienced them myself and they can truly drive you out of your mind...quickly. So pleased you were able to hang in there and press on despite the torment... You are a trooper ! Wishing you and Frank all the very best and thank you so very much for sharing your journey... it's epic !
You are so lovely Amanda. And Frank is so precious. As soon as I see a new post of yours, I’m excited to watch as soon as possible.
Thank you for always sharing the good, bad and ugly. As a solo female van traveller myself - I appreciate you being vulnerable sometimes - as it makes me feel normal ❤ Frank’s heavy breathing is so calming😍
So sorry to hear people leave you rude comments . Thank you for sharing your journey 🫶🏼
Your potatoes are a thing of beauty!
I think your pretty amazing and you love your precious Frank so much. This has been a great trip to watch, thank you for sharing your journey.
Awe you never have to apologize. I was so excited to get my postcards and stickers. If people are rude just delete their comment. They are likely jealous of your amazing, beautiful life. They are also likely envious of you adventurous spirit. Please don’t let them bring you down. Let us lift you up 🤗❤️
I always watch 'til the last second, Amanda. I appreciate that you keep it real, good or bad; hard or easy; chaotic or peaceful. And it helps, as well, that Frank is a joy to watch!
Love your videos! I love your sharing what you’re experiencing good and difficult. Sharing the difficult parts helps others feel they can take on new challenges. Even when it’s hard. Thanks for sharing Frank with us too! What a polite and lucky fella to be with you. ❤
❤ Thanks for sharing your adventures. Blessings to you and Frank. Travel safely.
I'm in Ontario and the mosquitoes are bad. I follow your channel because of you and love listening to you. And I love Frank and I love the way you take care of him. Personally I believe he is having a good quality of life. People out there please be kind to everyone. If you have nothing nice to say please keep it to yourself. Frank, Tom just had a birthday July 11th and I turned 65th July 8th. Amanda enjoy watching you and have nothing but the out most respect for you. I am glad that you didn't quit. You got this 👍 ❤😊
Happy Belated Birthday Frank 🤗❤️🐶😍
I love your talk and journey, and your so cute Frank. Thank you for your encouraging to keep going. It means a lot, and helps. Happy birthday Frank.
I would have been ugly crying and scratching in public. I enjoy hearing it all. Keeping it real. I'm not as fond of people as I use to be. Frank is so happy in the grass and his swims. That shower sounded amazing. I've never seen mosquitos like that. Are they the size of a chicken or What? ☮💜🐾
Oh dear. Please don't Don't pay any attention to the "rude" ones. And don't let them rent space in your beautiful mind.
I am thrilled to know that my envelope with Frank's sticker came all the way from Tuk. Incredible! I'm going to write Tuk on the envelope so I will always remember where it came from
Also, I am grateful that you inform us of the realities of driving to the "end of the road." I can't go there in person, so I'm traveling virtually with you and am fascinated with each leg of this trek. It's been amazing, and I am so thankful that you are kind enough to share all your experiences as you travel. Bravo!
Love you keep talking I enjoy it that's all that matters
