    My husband and I are retired. Unfortunately we can't go anywhere further than a day trip. Because my mom lives with us at 85 she is disabled. She can use the facilities but thats it. My husband is also disabled and cannot go far. My point is your channel has given me a way to escape for a little while. Seeing the beautiful places you see. Thank you so much for taking an audience with you. You both have blessed my life beyond measure ❤ 💛 ❤ Julie

    It has been over sixty years since the Trans Canadian Highway opened. Most of those who worked on it have passed away. Can you imagine if those workers could be magically teleported to today? The countryside is still mostly the same but all our inventions we carry around since then are utterly unimaginable to them. Sixty years from now if we could be transported into the future I wonder what kind of vehicles we would see and what kind of gadgets were being used. I wonder if we would find it to be almost magical and the beautiful countryside still mostly untouched. Probably.

    Hello dear Ones, I somewhat envy your experiences from today's episode. These are fantastically beautiful landscapes, we don't have anything like them in Europe anymore. Well, we also have some very beautiful landscapes, but these are then besieged with hordes of tourists. No comparison, about the isolation of your campsite today. I enjoy watching your travel videos all the more, thank you very much for sharing them with us. Many greetings from Wuppertal, Germany, yours Wolfgang.

    Absolutely loving this British Columbia road trip series! Episode 5 really captures the wild beauty of the Canadian wilderness, and it’s clear how much thought and preparation you’ve put into this overland adventure. The combination of stunning landscapes, off-grid living, and the camaraderie between everyone on the trip makes this such a great watch. Big shoutout to your sponsors for supporting such an epic journey - it’s inspiring to see the gear in action, especially in such challenging environments. Can’t wait to see where the adventure takes you next! Thanks for sharing your journey and have a nice day.
    Cheers,
    Simon

    My family is originally from California, and then we moved to Washington in 1967. Since then, one of my sisters has moved to B.C. Canada that same year. She and her husband lived primarily on Vancouver Island, but when they retired 6 years ago, they moved to Gabriola Island, B.C., Canada. I have also been to a few places on the mainland. One place my mom and I got to visit while in Canada was the Southern tip of Alaska to a small settlement called Hyder, Alaska. I love B.C., Canada. I am new to your channel because you are traveling in B.C., and I enjoy seeing areas I have not been to. Thank you for sharing your journey for the rest of us to enjoy.

    @stephenlewis8143 4 місяці тому +1

    The solace & solitude of expansive country and scenery in BC, is outstanding. I've visited parts of it previously. You capture it all in a most splendid manner. Expansive lakes, towering ridge lines and peaks are captured along with glacier rivers & wildlife. Sorry re the smoke and fires (that hit the 'West' this summer). Safe travel otherwise as you move East.

    Carol, your comment about needing to stop at information centers to get patches and stickers reminded me of collecting patches and stickers at similar places in my travels since I was a teenager! 😂 I remember my first path and sticker was from visiting Snowmass and Aspen, CO when I was 16. I'm sure I still have those patches and stickers somewhere. Great memories of travels!

We’re so thankful that we didn’t spend the whole summer in smoke this year! 🌲🌲🌲🌲❤Beautiful BC

    Having changed diet 2 years ago to Carnivior(PHD) and Thriving IThank you Thoughrly for discussing eating meat for meals. I reversed type 2 diabetes and also high blood pressure, depression, roseacia and dandarif gout and arthritis, lost all skin tags. The way I feel now is like I am 25 rather than 60. Boundless energy and only eat 2 times a day, never feel hungry at all and if busy actually miss meals for a day or two. We Must eat red meat as it only has the requirements to feed our brains, no vegetables have them and supplements do not have the right ones in a form our body can actually use.

They were awesome, worldly kids. We are a couple from Calgary that had done a cross US trip in 2018-19 after retiring. I think I told you I was a geologist. Glad you are still on the move. We now spend 5 months in Mexico every winter.
