Heat Wave Yurt Glamping
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- I am in the US for a month having the adventure of my life. The only way to stay cool and go "camping" in Georgia was to rent an air conditioned Yurt. It was my first time in a Yurt and I put together a little video to show what that whole thing is all about. The state parks here rent these out and they come equipped with some basic stuff (beds, seating, lights). Bring your own bedding, food, and cooking supplies. It was a fun night hunkering down!
The adventure will continue over the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
Cheers everyone.

#camping #hunkerdown #yurt #glamping #campingwithsteve
seeing that entire pan of food disappear instantly literally made my jaw drop lol, I thought for sure he'd save some for the next day, Steve is a machine 😂
It was a two-hander skillet, too. Very impressive
I was shocked as well! That would have lasted me multiple days 😅
I said the same thing...then scrolled down to see your comment
I was waiting for him to say he stored some of it 😅
Easily a 5000cal meal 😂
Welcome to the US Steve. We are honored to have you.
America is now a cleaner place😂
lol, let’s not go crazy. It’s ok he’s here is about as far as I would go.
I second that emotion
I have been following the channel from the start. I am a Georgia native and have lived here all my life of 78 years. Never expected to see Steve video camping in the state. Welcome south brother.
Also surprised as a Georgia native. Steve definitely is an inspiration
Came here to say the same
Steve's had a rough year, but it is so good to see him back! 👍
Steve could camp in his living room, and I would still watch with fascination. I’m absolutely over the moon every time he uploads ❤
Steve reading an old-fashioned phonebook would still get views, and that's for a reason. 😁 He's just a damn good guy and entertaining.
I'm with you! I posted on here a couple years ago to the effect he could build a blanket fort in the acreage house and hang with Garbage the cat, and we'd tune in.
Would have to agree. =)
Be kind of almost did that lol. I think it was a gear video or a review vid but he definitely did a whole video in his living room and it most definitely got mad views😅
@@darthdzlyou are absolutely right he’s amazing
Steve, sitting by a smoky fire, visibly sweaty, at night, with the barrage of cicadas and crickets going off in the background, has perfectly encapsulated what camping in the American south is like during the summer.
key part "VISIBLY SWEATING, at night" there's no escape
Amen.
@@Adamaeus88 mosquitoes as well
As a Georgian I felt very at home watching this one
I came to say the same exact thing. That sound is 100% summer in the South.
Just want to say, I love you Steve! You’re the strongest human in my opinion. You’ve been through such loss and heart ache and you still truck on and hunker down, and have a beautiful positivity for life in general. It inspires me to have at least an ounce of that. You’re an amazing guy, Steve. ❤
Well, thank you 😊
@@campingwithsteve pls do treehouse tent
@@emperorpelican8187read the room man!
I think cooking with Steve could be it's own sub series all on its own. Just have to get random ingredients and come up with something.
😂 He did cooking even before boondocking
@@chrismccray361I wanna see him do gold panning videos again
Always get geeked for that part of the video!
That 2nd bunk deffo needed a Crazy Neighbour for company.
But I'm sure he was there in spirit 😇 ❤
Part 2: Steve kiss a Bear 🐻

So true
IDK it looks comfy in that Yurt maybe even Mrs Wallis was in there watching over him too. Steve seems like a great guy, its too bad he has seen such tremendous loss over the last few years.
This channel is proof that its not the travelling that's important. It's the people that you're with. We come here for Steve.
Yeah I would watch him do almost anything. He could do a normal travel vlog or a day in the life type of thing.
One hundred percent. I’ve never met this man but I’d testify under oath that his goodness and authenticity go all the way to his marrow. What a guy. Hope he’s doing well.
So true.
I binged watched every video over the course of 3 weeks and I don't think I'll ever get tired of it
Watching Steve does more for my high blood pressure than ace inhibitors
I live 20 minutes from here!! No worries, no alligators. Welcome to Georgia!
I'm a 49 y/o man who actually shouted "Yay!" when I saw a new Steve video. I'm proud of that.
I need a man like this in my life!!! LOL
I didn't say it out loud but I did it in my head
Same 49 too thought woohoo 😂
Still young at heart
20 and so true
Welcome to America, Steve. We're happy to have you.
Canada is in America too.
@@raymondsenecal8943Canada, the United States largest state.
@@raymondsenecal8943No, Canada is part of North America. Definitely not the same thing!🇨🇦
@raymondsenecal8943 Everyone in the world knows when they hear America it's referring to the USA not Canada, Mexico, Brazil or Ecuador! Just stop!
@@SJC49 bruh Canada was annexed by the United States in 2072 and this became complete by 2077 just before the bombs dropped - or do you not know history?
I started watching your channel when I was dealing with a lot of anxiety and stress. These videos brought calm, peace and inspiration to my life! You are such a wonderful human being, Steve. Keep being you! I hope I get to meet you someday!
Steve is a classic. All his published adventures will be in the history and be watched 500 years from now
I came for the camping and stayed for the ghostly white legs.
For someone like him who is outside all the time, I can't wrap my head around why his legs are so white lol
@@x0scimy0x might not like shorts but in the Georgia heat, you gotta have shorts
Never thought in a million years you'd be camping here in Georgia glad to see a new video
Welcome to the United States, Steve! We're happy to have you and all your fellow countrymen!! I see a lot of Canadians from Ontario here in Ohio. You guys are always a pleasure to interact with. Very friendly and courteous.
Also, the South is VERY hot and humid during the summer months, but it's beautiful.
Great to see you back. Garbage update please (cat fan here). Thanks, Andrew, Italy. (PS plenty of good wild camping in these parts).
How your face quickly changed once you saw the naked dude was hilarious. Yurts are awesome. A thunder storm in one is icing on the cake.
It’s really Just a bare in the wild 😂🐻
I don't think Steve really knows how much of an inspiration and a comfort he is to so many people. Seems like the kind of guy to truly have no idea the impact he brings to the world, despite all the terrible things he's gone through.
Don’t know what it is but this man always brightens up those very rough days!
@@SkylarTrahan He's an inspiration to us. Regardless of all the losses and heartache, he remains optimistic and lives in peace. Something I'm struggling to work on and getting life back together. He is a light in a world full of darkness.
You're so right!
@@anthonykoehler4396One day at a time Anthony. You'll have ups and downs regardless of how things are going, but keep making progress. Congratulate yourself on every achievement no matter how small. Making winning a positive experience and a habit. You've got this.
He got me through Covid... twice!
I can’t believe you’re in Georgia Steve that’s where I live born and raised. I hope everything’s good with you, brother.❤
It is, my friend! Thanks :)
Steve I watch your videos mostly in the evenings and they bring me great comfort. You have a very calming spirit!
A new video from Steve makes any day better! Thank you Steve for improving our lives, you are appreciated.
QUITE RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It has been a LONG WAIT between episodes!!!!!!!!!!
That's no bother for me. I'm certainly happy to have a new video but no matter how often Steve uploads I'll support him. It's important to take care of yourself and sometimes that means cutting back on workload.
@@bowtiejess80 Yeah I know what you are saying...............but my work load is easier with a little vision of stealth camping!~!!!!!!!!!!!
@@abellseaman4114no matter how long the wait, my algorithm always knows to put Steve right on top when he posts. He’s the best! He and crazy neighbor saved my mental health during Covid. ❤🙏
Thank you Steve. I really needed this video tonight
"I've never hunkered down to stay cold before but here we are." Truer words have never been spoken Steve. Enjoy your time in the States!
Welcome to the South, Steve. 88 is a pleasant day in the summer.
Despite the challenges you have faced, your continued determination is commendable. Well done, Steve! ❤
This is law-abiding Steve Wallis.
Non-law-abiding Steve Wallis wears flashy 'disguises' and watches people order Mcdonalds as he waits for them to leave so he can check out how truly invisible his setup is.
Keep hunkering down Steve!
You truly are the Mozart of living outdoors.
😅 HaaHaaa yes!
Blue Ridge parkway in North Carolina and Virginia should be otw
Better to not mess around when you're in the US cuz you never know
Let’s not forget the salesman’s suit and case episode. Pure gold
Or a construction worker outfit
Steve just casually housed 3lbs of food like nobody's business! Great video steve!
I was pretty impressed by that. I couldn't believe it at first.
LOL when it cut i was like holy fuck.
That might have been closer to 6 lbs haha!
I was thinking that it looked like a pan of food to feed a family of 3-4 -- or, I guess, a family of one Steve!
He smashed that thing! Start throwing in some local food challenges in the vids. Man.
Love that you are visiting us in the U.S. It is a privilege to have you here. 🇨🇦🇺🇸
Steve eats better over a camp fire with a made up recipe then I do in my kitchen following along with instructions and recipes from Pinterest! .
Nice to see a video where steve isn't nervous or paranoid about being discovered. Relaxed steve is just as entertaining. ☺️
He still has his reactions. He sees his yurt neighbor, and ducks behind the yurt to hide. Just an instinct, I guess.
Steve, the haircut... the beard trim... the shades... you're looking like a Rock Star, Man.
I noticed this too. He has some certain new savoire faire.
Hes looking good for sure, great to see him like that
Total rock star… or stealthy 🥷 wild man!!
The look fits you!
Welcome to USA. Personally I like Canada 🇨🇦 best!! Just saying!
Indeed-welcome or hope you were welcomed in Ga!
He does look rock
That was one of the best-looking meals Steve has made.
Steve, my partner and I discovered your videos about a year ago and I just want to say they bring me so much peace. I am so grateful for all the work you do to share your experiences with us.
My camping experience is limited... I had a long distance relationship with a guy from Montreal (originally Winnipeg) and funnily enough his name was Steve too. We would visit each other once a month, & I was living back in my hometown outside D.C. We went to the Shenandoah Mountains to go camping. Instead of the campground we decided to just pitch the tent in the middle of a beautiful meadow on the mountain, and the stars were amazing. When we woke up, we were surrounded on all sides by deer. It was so surreal. I also used to drive there by myself many times in my 20s just to sit and watch the sunrise, before any tourists showed up on Skyline Drive.
Now I suffer from chronic illness and struggle with simple activities, so camping is not an option. I LOVE the gorgeous scenery you get to take in and share with us, and I enjoy living vicariously through your videos. You have a Bob Ross kind of vibe. You also have a great deadpan sense of humor! I am so amazed at your strength and tenacity and how far you've come. Any time I get stressed I will come and hang out here. I love the Sleepytime Camping Playlist! Know that you have so many people who care about you and are wishing you the very best.
Steve sleeping under a tarp in the woods : ''doesnt get any better than this!''
Steve in a fancy cozy yurt : ''could be worse''
THIS right here is what made me fall in love with Steve's channel.
Irony at its finest!
❤
I think it was a drain tunnel once and he was all "I could live a happy life here" :)
Hey Steve, glad you are still out there. I know we have a critical anniversary coming up so remember you have more than one and a half million people thinking about you and Jess. Warm regards from me!
Its AC weather for us southerners. Georgia has veery similar weather to Florida, and its humid as hell. AC set at 68 and life is good, watching Steve enjoy our humidity here in the south is golden! 🙃
Long time Albertan here, currently living in BC. I've spent a lot of time in rural Georgia and this video just proves that home is where you make it. Enjoy shopping at Kroger and fueling up at quick trip.
Also God luck drinking that sweet tea y'all.
Wow! I would have never imagined in a million years that Steve would be camping only a few miles from where I live. Totally cool.
I was thinking the same thing. We take the family to that state park all the time.
Agreed! I live so close that I immediately recognized where he is. He chose a great spot!
I sure hope he gets to visit a Bucee's.
Same I'm in Macon!
Wow! That's cool!
Sometimes when I’m extremely depressed or anxious. Your videos will pop onto my feed. I’ve been watching them for almost 3 years now. Thank you for potentially saving my life Steve
How long after watching the video do you become depressed again?
Going through near death experiences a marriage having to end and family members passing away I agree these videos help to recenter one's inner peace. Thanks Steve!
@@gaz84avfcwhat’s that supposed to mean?
When Steve said "I'm not going up" I breathed a sigh of relief.
Hey, know your limitations. And apparently Steve's is getting up on the top bunk of bunk beds.
@@danjonmills coincidently, Steve and I share this limitation lol
Yurts, falls, naked guys, white legs, local step 2s. Awesome!
As all southerners will tell ya: "It ain't the heat that gets ya, it's the humidity!" And they're right! That stuff can and will make high 80 degree temps feel like over 100!
Not just the Southerners, I'm in the Mid Atlantic and I've heard that all my life 😂😂
Midwest does this too lol
And as a lifelong North Carolinian, you never really get used to the high humidity.
I can feel the wall of humidity hitting me now just watching this 😖
@@snackie1359 You can see he walked out of his cold Yurt and didn’t give his lens enough time to defog. Rookie mistake. 😂
Welcome to America Steve! We're happy to have you! Please come back often!
sitting here watching this at work 3rd shift Milton,GA! I remeber commenting on Steve's Canada/US border video a while back and told him to stealth his way all the way down to GA and chill with us! I won't personally get to chill with Steve obviously, but I hope Ga is good to you buddy and we are glad to have you!!! Safe travels
So glad you're in the States! Welcome, Welcome! I hope everyone has been treating you well. Can't wait for more!
Told my boyfriend I’ve been watching you since the beginning of when you were stealth camping in storm drains. Great to see your videos, Steve you’re a very endearing guy. Never stop being you.
storm drains werent the beginning. beginning was the camper and pizza hut recipes
Same!
@@dvijaraj the boondocking days into the living in a tent to go to school days, Steve is a legend
@@dvijaraj The important thing is that we're all here, supporting and following this absolute gent that gives us so much of his time to entertain us! :)
The first video of steves i watched was an alfredo sauce tutorial 🤣 and down the rabbit hole of boondocking i went
I don't know if anyone is still reading this. Over 4000 comments already!
But Steve, let me tell you, the fact that you emphasize words and syllables a lot is really good for your viewers from non-English speaking countries! Thanks! Keep it up!
I stayed in a nearly identical yurt in Washago, ON. It was during a heat wave with lots of rain, and although it wasn’t air conditioned, coming into a nice warm yurt in the evening, I steady of a mildewy tent was such a luxury. I think I realized then my 40’s demand a little more comfort than just a tent ;)
You’re a hoot, Steve! Your face when you saw the naturalist sun bather. 😂😂😂. We just like hanging out with you, even in a yurt. And you are right, why are Canadian those bill machine so darn picky!!! Say hi to Mav for us. 😊
Those are cicadas you hear "way up in the trees". You are experiencing a unique Southern phenomenon that only happens once every decade or so.
And it sucks
@@ergonomicwand5485 Uhhhyup! It does indeed.
Some species of cicadas come out every summer. A few only emerge at certain years. This year the 13 and 17 year cicadas are emerging at the same year.
But there are cicadas every summer in the south. 😊
I love the sounds of the cicadas. They stop later in the night.
The cicada sound is how you know summer has come in AL.
❤
@@phronsieoneI can hear 'em all night in Birmingham, Al. They stop when it starts to get cold like November.
Welcome to Georgia, Steve! I live in Atlanta and when I saw the thumbnail it looked like another park here in Atlanta but I said no way he came here. Then when you said you were in Georgia, I almost fell out of my chair! Enjoy and thank you for all you do for the videos and all you have been through. You have a HUGE online family that is with you always!
From that screenshot I was certain he was at Stone Mountain Park.
Right? Reading the title I made a joke wondering what a Canadian considers a heat wave, and was floored when I saw he was in GA. It was so surreal seeing him in a park I've been to!
@@jlcorron Exactly! That is what I thought first.
High falls state park. I recognized it as soon as he showed the yurt!
Steve hold a meet up for your Georgia fans while in Georgia step 2 on me
Steve, who else is with you, or was it you who devoured that delicious pan of food!! So good to see you in the 48! Come out to the West if you want some dry weather to,avoid that humidity!! Take care & be safe!!!
Having grown up in GA, I have one correction: This is not a "heat wave" it's just "summer" lol. Love that you got some AC for the night! Welcome to the USA!
It's a nice day when Steve uploads
Definitely!!
Yes indeed!
Part 2: Steve kiss a Bear 🐻
ua-cam.com/video/aQeaztXRhIM/v-deo.html
Steve you were only about 30 minutes from my house! I've camped many times in that park!
Always a nice feeling
Glamping with Steve sounds like a new Discovery Plus television series
Steve could easily have his own tv show. Have 8 minutes of him discussing the plan and any points of interest at the location, 8 minutes of setup, and 8 minutes of narrated camping, plus a quick closing. A network should jump on that.
Here for it!
I would pay to watch that.
😅
We agree!
I love you Steve you are so resilient and get me through so many rough days.
Steve, been a subscriber for the past few years going back to when you had a fair amount, but much less subscribers. To look at you now with 1.5 million is awesome. Always hoped you could come to our side of the border and visit. Many, many, Americans have followed you for years and we are so happy for you to come and visit. So welcome and have fun!
You what's so "kool" is the fact that step 2 is almost always local beers!!! You help support the community your visiting and you clean up very nicely!!!
So happy to have Steve in America. Welcome Steve and safe travels.
Welcome to the good ole U.S. of A, Steve! We’re thrilled to have you! 🇺🇸
Best Canadian of the Year Award for our Steve !!!! 🎉❤❤❤
I love when you mention Garbage and that you miss him. I'm sure he misses you too. 🐈
Cats are sociopaths so they don’t miss anyone except the sound of the can opener or treat bag. We are their slaves.
It’s a cat
@@sfullernj yeah and? Normal people bond with their animals.
the relaxing sound pf cicadas and crickets is what southerners dreams are made of. it's very weird for us to not hear those noises at night.
Sounds like that in Spain
Agreed! Crickets, frogs, and cicadas always lull me to sleep. It reminds me of simpler times as a child, visiting my grandparents in the Blue Ridge mountains, sleeping with the windows open. They owned about 100 acres of land with a farm and a large pond. Those were the good old days.
Right!? When Steve described the chirping of the crickets as *"upsetting,"* I it occurred to me that natives of Georgia can't get a good night's sleep without the sound of the chirping crickets.
@HylianProtagonist wow it's beautiful there
also what a friend of mine taught me years ago... things are always quite alright as long as the crickets are chirping... it's when they stop that you have to be aware... I sleep with my windows open often and have learned to trust their chirping...
Bwahahahahahaha the birthday thing. You are truly the best Steve! Thank you for taking the time to really engage with your audience in this video. We loved it! One of my favorites yet!
Welcome to the States, Steve! Glad to have you! It’s on my bucket list to come back to the Territories to enjoy the auroras!
As an American who grew up in the deep south, I really appreciated this.
I think this is the first time I have seen Steve relaxing in shorts. 🙂
That's one helluva yurt tour, Steve! Even letting us know the threadcount of the bedding. I almost thought you were gonna leave us hanging there.
Welcome to the US Steve! We are honored to have ya! You sure picked a hot week to come on down but you’re always welcome here near DC and out where I live in the Piedmont of Va.
Currently homeless and camping 5 miles in the woods. Your videos help get my mind off of the stress. Even if it is just for a little while. Thanks for the videos fellow Steve. ✌️
Hope youre doing ok brother
Hope you are okay!🇨🇦
🙏 Steve
What internet service do you have lol!
@@bodangles6177Honestly, I was wondering the same thing!
Doesn’t matter how bad the work day is. The second I see Steve post my day is a good day
I'm glad to see your back steve! As always, awesome video. Can't wait to see what happens next
It’s good to see you Steve.
The amount of joy I experience when I hear Steve say "Yurt".
Never in a million years would I ever imagined I would hear "welcome to glamping with Steve"! Much love my guy, you are such a cool person and inspire me to smile ;)
Welcome Steve, glad to see you here. ❤
Watching Steve's videos is a good time man, even record to watch while we're campin!
The man, the myth, the legend Steve Wallis! 🙌
I never thought I would be watching Steve about 45 minutes from home. Welcome to Georgia! Come visit again in the fall when you're less likely to melt.
Haha Steve you are the best travel host ever!! 😂😂
Your little Steve-isms are just fantastic! 😂😂
Welcome to America, Steve! Happy to have you! Love from Seattle, Washington!
welcome to the South Steve, we are glad to have you with us!
I think we've all been waiting anxiously for a full video of your trip here to the US. Fantastic sir! Thanks for the video
👏 👏
Yeah but picking nearly the hottest time of the year to visit the South of all places was probably not the wisest choice he could have made. It's like 95 degrees on the heat index with 60-70% humidity, camping weather that is not, unless you're idea of camping is in your back yard, in a pool.
Georgia is so nice! Especially in the woods. Thanks Steve!
Wellcome to the US Steve Hope you have a Great Time Enjoy your Trip 👍👍
He's back! Good to see you out and about Steve. My condolences to you, I know you've had a rough few years with losses, but know that you make thousands of people's day go by so much better when you post. Stay strong and hunker down amigo.
As much as Steve travels and as close as he is to the US, I cant believe he's never been to the US!! WOW, enjoy your time here brother
Welcome to Georgia! I wish I would've seen you. I hope you enjoyed your stay.😊
I remember glamping in a Yurt in Kiptopeke, VA. They had left a traveler log in the table where people could write stories and make reviews. A lot of them were really goofy.
I’ll be cracking open a good ol’ Step 2 for you, while I reminisce about my childhood. Thanks Steve!
Steve, I live 30 minutes from High Falls. I've been watching your content since the camping behind the welcome sign on the interstate. It is quite the honor to host you in HIgh Falls as your first taste of camping in the United States. Stay classy
Absolutely awesome to see you are here in the U.S. Steve,Welcome to our country for a change. You're looking incredible, good to see you again
I feel so happy Steve is here in the US. I feel like we are sharing our home with him. Greetings from Cali. It’s hot here too, 110 degrees! How long before Steve breaks a law? Haha!
See I love the cricket noises. I open my windows in summer a smidge to hear em chirp. It's like a lullaby to me.
Seeing ur videos give me a sense of confort around nighttime Steve I have anxiety and it mostly hits when I’m in bed and watching ur vids just gives me a sense of cosyness and comfort keep doing what your doing man
Nearly 300,000 views and nearly 30,000 Likes. Just proof how much we all love you Steve!
A great trick for the heat-soak a hand towel in freezing icy water, ring it out and wear it around your neck, like drape it so the ends are on either side of the front of your neck...HELPS soooo much! Another if you are sitting, just use one of those metal dollar store pans you used in this video for cooking and pour some cooler water into it and put your feet in it!!! You got this Steve! xoxo
I didnt think I would care for the glamping yurts but after seeing this I think I may try it. Welcome to the US Steve!
Honestly this is so great Steve is always doing the most with stealth camping to make sure were entertained that im really glad hes glamping like he deserves a break from sleeping on a cot lol. Love this video just as much as a stealth camp!
