    I didn’t know you from your previous channel with your ex. I just came across your newer videos and have become a fan of you. Decided to go back and watch your journey from the beginning. You are such a captivating writer and storyteller and are very inspiring on many levels. 😊

    You are so inspiring and obviously connected to what has meaning in life - the heart. It took me 60 years to discover that and ten years of exploring the truth of it I find myself inspired by your beautiful expression. You are a harbinger of a world that's meaningful and valuable. Your contribution, just as it is now, is priceless and desperately needed.

    I just came across your channel randomly and I’m thankful to UA-cam for that. I just watched the first video and I’m excited to binge watch the others and also excited to follow your journey. You are so much braver than I’d be. There’s not way I’d be able to do something like this alone!! Happy travels

    I used to live in Tucson. You did the right thing by backing off when you came across the Javelinas. They are commonly referred to as pigs but they are not. Pigs were brought over from Europe or Asia. Javelinas are considered Peccaries and are entirely New World animals. They travel in herds and a group can number as many as 20. So if you saw about 5 or 6 there possibly were more. They are generally not aggressive and attacks against humans are rare. However, coyotes are a natural enemy for Javelinas. So what put them into defensive mode was probably your dog. They have poor eyesight but a keen sense of smell. I'm going to assume that the cactus that stuck to you and your dog were Cholla balls. When I hike through the desert I carry a large comb in my pocket. That way if Cholla balls get stuck to my pant legs I can just "comb" them off. That way I don't even have to touch them. I am very anxious to see your future travels back east and how the camping experience compares to being out west. Continued safe travels.

    New subscriber and am looking forward to watching. I saw you on another channel that was featuring School Bus conversions as I am so entranced by them. I then tried to find you using Regretless and wasn't seeing it because of the spelling. I did finally see it under "just Keep Moving". Thats when I saw the final video there and a link was attached. Very heart wrenching but could tell that you and he both carry a love and respect for each other and for whatever reason that ended, it did so amicably and was a beautiful video with incredible editing. Good Luck to you in this new adventure. Rio is the bomb!!

    Alyssa, I live in the area you were in in this video, and you did the right thing. Wild bores are pretty mean, if you run into bears make as much noise as you can and they will leave you alone. they might try to come back, if they do, make a lot of noise again and they will leave for good.

    I'm a new subscriber. I literally just came across your videos and I'm going to start on video 1. I admire your love for the outdoors and your beautiful companion, Rio. I also admire you because you show you don't need a man to be happy and enjoy life. Your positivity is awesome! I am an Army Veteran that now drives an 18 wheeler across the country. I noticed you had said something about getting a gym membership for the showers, I recommend you get a Loves and Flying J's/Pilot Truckstop Professional Driver Rewards Card that you swipe everything you get fuel. With every 50 gallons you pump, you get a free shower. You'll also advance in a points tier system for every gallon pumped. You can save the points for food, drinks and merchandise. North Carolina is awesome! I live in Eastern NC and ittds beautiful here. Nice beaches and parks to camp. Keep being you, and thank you for sharing your journey!

    Hello there Lyss, hope this finds you doing well on your journeys. I happened to come across your channel for the first time, by way of a mistake but it was nice, plus I'm a sucker for beautiful eyes in a lady ;) Anywho, I read your UA-cam info and quite honestly it piqued my attention, and I decided why not. Why not give this lovely girl a chance and subscribe...to listen to her, see her journey, and keep falling in love with her dog Rio...all the while seeing where you can take me on your travels so that I can continue to fall in love with the sites, sounds, and did I mention Rio! And you, of course, LOL :) Oh, and also to see where the next chapter in your roadbook leads me. Well, after this first video, I must say it's definitely a starter but I know it's going to get a lot better Haha. Well Lyss, be safe, watch your six-always. Say hello to Rio! I'm looking forward to watching all your videos, in order. Until the next, adios chica.
