    Thank you for showing all generations that life can still be explored in a manner that takes no expense; just the love of the roads. Your video gives a positive aspect to children that it is important to “play outside” for life should be lived live; not on a flat screen T.V. Your adventures are a positive nature to which this world needs more of and the understanding that you can thrive from the natures of the world. Clothes optional is a choice of freedom, not a hindrance of a negative nature.
    Beauty is more than skin deep; it is the depth of the wonders of the world, live from the adventurous nature of one's heart.
    Keep chasing your dreams and share with us all the new paths your dreams, in your destinations, take you.
    Thank you.

    15:51 Only took 3 seasons and 10 episodes to recognise something (except maybe half a second from Costa Rica but I couldn't confirm it). God I miss Oregon, I used to go out to those falls and visit the Bonneville Dam at least every year I lived out there. I think it's been nearly a decade since I've went back. Little harder to visit now that I live in Europe.

    Hi Ben, (& Alaska).
    I was wondering, If you have a chilean license plate i assume you have also a chilean insurance. But do they really cover anything if you have an accident in alaska for example ? And what about technical inspection, i thouth they also had to be done in chile otherwise they wont give you an insurance ? could you ship capito to europe for example with the chilean insurance going on ?
    I would wish you good luck with your travel to alaska but i know you already finished the trip :p i realy look forward to next episode ! :D
    Greetings from belgium !

    • @KombiLife

      you need insurance from local brokers. Standard Chilean insurance doesn't cover you outside of the Chile
