- Here's part 2 of my little "Day in Van Life" trip to the North Shore of Lake Superior ♡♡ This was a particularly good day; I was so happy to be back in my van, living my simple little life.
Thanks for coming back guys, I had a lot of fun making these last two videos, and am so glad I get to share my little adventures with you.

A young lady on rocks/
Snow falling down/
Her hair of locks/
And a fire mound/
The chopping of the lake/
The moments not missed/
The taste of a snow flake/
And the trees in the mist/
Wisdom to see/
Solitude in stone/
Wisdom to be/
A young lady alone/
That poem is beautiful!
What a wonderful poem!
how sweet it is
So poetic and beautiful
Amazing
When you said you found happiness in nature as a reprieve from your depression - i immediately empathised. I find myself feeling the exact same - everything feels numb and empty until i get a moment alone in a forest, or a beach, and everything just seems to lift for a moment. I hope you’re able to find peace soon, this is a beautiful video :-)
Thank you ♥️
Ahhhh this made me tear up💕
I notice a big difference when i take my Granddaughter out in nature she comes alive.
❤️
I love that you show yourself so honestly. The depression, the need to get away n be alone.. the simple pasta face and setting the dirty pot on your knee lol this is me and its all of us❤ but damn it there's so much beauty in this world. We can choose to see that and be in that moment.
She always blossoms when she gets out in nature on her own, away from cities and away from people. And... having those places around you, it's so precious.
There is nothing like that, at all, here were I live (apart from the fact that we're in a lock-down, so even if there was, I wouldn't be allowed to go there right now, but that's okay; I am actually quite enjoying the lock-down and it's made a few things better for me). Where I live has become a happier place. There is usually a lot of aggression and unhappiness around here, and it gets to me, but now, well, we're all stuck in our homes and most people are now much friendlier than usual - though there is always some guy somewhere once a week or so who tries to be pushy at the supermarkets, trying to get way with refusing to adhere to the social distancing and pushing ahead of everyone who is waiting in the line, neatly distances, but the security guards always send them back to the end of the line and they usually - at least so far - don't protest much other than pulling some faces and grumbling a bit.
You found the most perfect spot for your hammock over looking that rushing river. It doe's not get any better that that.
What a raging river though
This is the wholesome and peaceful content we all need rn. I appreciate how much love and thought goes into your videos! hope you are staying well Hannah
Your channel is by far my favorite, your videos give me so much inspiration. I'm 17 and plan on living in a van in a few years, and watching solo female (and male) travelers is just incredible to me. The moment of you sitting by the fire on the beach, just enjoying that moment was so beautiful.
Same I’m 16 and when I get a job I wanted to start saving up money for van life travel
Same!!!! I'm turning 17 real soon!!!
Same!!! I feel so inspired by her and the older people in her comments. I bought my van a few months ago and have been fixing him up to be road ready~
Love this series. You have a really inspiring way of showing how to overcome overwhelming aspects of life by just making the most of solitude and nature. I really get a wave of calmness in watching these videos because I feel like I can do anything and go anywhere
You know what i liked in her video . I liked the fact that she doesnt delet the bad moments of her trip! Shes showing what she really did
You're not kidding. The cure for depression is right outside the door.
OH NOOOOOO YOU WALKED RIGHT BY A SHED ! Lol did anyone else see it ? Thanks for the great content . I just found your channel and am totally addicted. I especially love the new cabin in the woods and can't wait to see you and your new home flourish !
Hannah - Your stunning videos bring so much peace to me. The way you capture nature... the music you choose... your genuine appreciation for the natural world, for adventure and exploration is so refreshing and I have been living vicariously through your adventures while quarantined in a big, busy city. Please continue to share these breathtaking places, and your travels... thank you for the work you put into these videos so that we can enjoy these adventures too 💚
Yeah, she is a treasure, in so many ways, and she adds a lot of good stuff to the world. (The world could do with a few more people like Hannah Lee Duggan!)
"I've angered the geese" hahaha. they really are terrifying...I feel you. Also, love watching these relaxed adventures. This is everything I want my life to be right now but they've pretty much closed the outdoors where I live. Never thought it would be possible but they shut down the mountains lol. I'll just live vicariously through you! Thanks for sharing!
Everyone battles with depression. This video was a stress reliever. I think your living a lot of people’s dream life right now. Camping and exploring day to day. Relaxing by the fire and enjoying a hot meal with a cold beer. Thats living a great life in my opinion. The simple things like just sitting in chair by the water is so relaxing. This is life. I really dislike this world but I love being in nature.
Sorry you have not been feeling well Hanna. Nice video ....... AGAIN ...... great views of nature and serenity . ... a beautiful face in a beautiful place. 🙂
Such a young beautiful gal living life to the fullest without anyone else standing in your way. You are truly an inspiration to me....I am 49 and far from "LIVING." God bless your beautiful kind soul. Live it up girl! Love all your adventures! 😘
This video was wonderful. I felt so at peace watching this in a time when that’s very hard to find. Thank you.
I feel what you say about major depression. I suffered it too and it slowly passed after two years of bicycle tour and one year of understanding what was relevant for my life. Personally found out it is important to be active, eat healthy and make good experiences. Now I finally got rid of addictive medicines and I'm building my future with the desire to become a digital nomad. Love from Italy 💕
I loved this video Hannah! When you talked about how it’s nice to find happiness in nature and just the simple things I have never related with someone more. I live in Colorado, originally from the Midwest and I have loved exploring the mountains and nature. It’s so beautiful and brings you back to a “center” love your videos I’ve been watching for years! 😊❤️
Four words. Your attitude is AMAZING!
Out of everybody that put stuff on UA-cam you pick out the most gorgeous spots in the world. You're content is absolutely amazing
The simplicity of this video and the majestic surroundings but also knowing you are in pain made me emotional! Great video 👍
I wish there was more people like you, been looking for this type of van life a long ago, keep doing this, now youre my fav van lifer.. by the way i am very like you i love chillin in the nature alone its something special and magical, i don't like when people think im weird when they see me alone somewhere far, they r messed..
God is protecting you. What a precious, sweet and gentle soul you are!
Stumbled across your content and i enjoy watching how beautiful and therapeutic nature is through your channel. Thank you 🙏
I feel that watching your videos is a bit like seeing the world through your eyes, the slowness, the beauty and the aesthetic . I love it
Your videos of your adventures have been so comforting and truly enchanting. I love that your real, kind and a genuine soul. The world needs more peace and kindness like you show. Keep it up and keep adventuring
That place looks so beautiful and peaceful. Honestly you inspire me to do things like this on my own.. there's been so many times I've decided not to go somewhere because of fear of what others might think. So thank you 🍃
Massive respect for your journey, Miss Duggan. Glad that you're finding the ability to ease through your mental processes., and come out the other side with more clarity. Keep striding forward, young one. :)
I just love this. That spot with your hammock looked so beautiful and peaceful.... well every spot you showed but I love how you found that perfect spot for your hammock.
The beach you had your campfire on is my favorite place in the world! Work has me living on the east coast now but this video was such a beautiful reminder of home, thanks for that :)
Hey, your last name is a Dutch city that is missing one letter! How funny!
you deserve so much more hype omg. your channel is so calming and real, i think you are amazing. i’m so glad i came across your channel :)
Awwwwwwe> a walk with the "spirit in which all things move". what a heart felt video, thank you. Your Gratefulness showed that even depression can be dealt with. You moved me, and touched my heart.
P.S. I admire your courage to take all this on. Its not easy, can be very dangerous, even deadly. May your path always be blessed with Mother Earths Kindness, and your best Alertness to stay SAFE!
I really enjoyed this video. A great reminder the world isn't all skyscrapers, hustle and bustle. I'm a big fan thanks for sharing.
So beautiful, in pictures and words. Thank you Hannah!
You find THE BEST nature spots! That river looks fun to kayak or raft down!
Snow on the beach...looks magical!
I love your beautiful spirit Hannah, your van is awesome and I wish I was twenty years younger....but I’m 46 this year and going to give van life a go...it’s been my dream for so long! You’re an inspiration girl, thankyou so much ❤️
Brave little lady, stay safe, enjoyed the vid. I admire your independence and sense of adventure. I spend 95% of my time alone, well, me and the pooch. Much beauty in the world, never stop enjoying that.
I appreciate the honesty. You know the tools that work for healing. blessings sis!
I just love you dude. Thank you for showing up as all of you. 🤍✨
A quick tip,coat the bottom of your pan with dish soap before cooking on an open flame.Makes clean up easier.The carbon won't sick.
Good to know! I bought a cheap yet cute kettle at Walmart the week before my camping trip for our anniversary, and it got soot COATED on it and I can't get it off. THANK YOU
This is so amazing! Can't wait to pack my things and go. Thank you for showing your simple moments. 💚
Thank you for taking the time to share your beautiful moments with Mother Nature. I’m sure it takes a lot of energy and attention to where the camera is while you go on these adventures. I can see the experience being fulfilling to share but also take away from the moment for yourself. Your honesty and vulnerability is appreciated and videos like this remind me that all these man made dreams are all not necessarily real.
This is from 5 months ago and it still feels so on point with the times are still in. Thank you for creating such a beautiful video and encouraging people to get out of their funks when they need to. 🤙🏻
I love all the sunrises and sunsets
So peaceful were you are Hannah,love it
Thank you for sharing this video. There are a lot to be thankful for. Keep on hanging on. 🙂 you're living someone's dream, you're living my dream. I have always wanted to travel with a van on my own. Lots of love
Love all your videos Hannah. You are an awesome person. You have a wonderful beauty to you. Thanks for sharing your feelings. ❤️
This was so peaceful :) thanks so much for bringing us along. The music tops it off as well ❤️
What a beautiful place you ended up to eat your dinner.
You are such a resourceful girl. Loved this video
This looks so peaceful and inspiring, Hannah. Thanks for sharing with us. Even if I can't get out and seek adventure like this right now, I get a little bit of it watching your uploads. Hope you are well, and stay safe out there!
I love all your videos, but with the world where it is right now, I think we all need the simplicity of nature you’re so in tuned with. Seriously saving for a van. ❤️
Really enjoying your videos lately. They're not just beautiful and well-made, they are real. Showing the low points and being honest about how you're doing in life, as well as the silly things like going back to pick up your camera. Choosing authenticity and honesty over the highlight reel will serve you well in life. Keep your head up girl, you're doing well.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful world w us. You are so honest and refreshing to see.
Thanks for sharing this video and your honest feelings about depression! You're not alone and being in nature journaling is the best thing ever
When you were first walking out on the rocks I could just slightly hear you humming. It was very simple yet calming.
Thinking of you and sending healing vibes your way. Nature has a magical way of soothing us. We are one with mother nature and when we lose touch of her we can sometimes feel disconnected. May you continue to recconect with yourself and find joy in the ever present simplicity of life xo
This was such a peaceful video, I loved it. I needed the reminder to get outside, too 🌞 I’m sorry to hear you haven’t been doing well. I hope it turns around for you soon 🥰
Hi Hannah,
I’ve just starting watching your channel tonight and I am so impressed of your strength and confidence.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful scenery.

Cheers from Down Under . . . Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺

thank you for being so honest about your depression. I've been feeling the same lately and drove 5 hours to a beach in my van and felt super anxious like you did with geese and i just drove home feeling defeated. This video gives me hope that i can just try agin next time. thank you so much
I literally found your videos today and omg I absolutely love em lol.so binge watching.your van looks amazing!really has my gears turning on van life because I am a truck driver and love traveling and the seclusion with nature.
I wish I lived wherever you are here. So beautiful Hannah!
Started to follow you about week ago..just think you are the cutest free spirit i've seen for a while..
Love how simple and true you are! You show your true you and how life is good and bad :) Keep it up!
Just found your channel and watched a few episodes... Thanks for sharing this part of your life. Cool to see. Your really strong to be doing what you doing, even if it is because you need it. Wishing you the best and glad to see you found some relief from whatever is bothering you... You are a beautiful person. Take care.
It was at this exact point in time that I realized Ive been watching your videos one after the other, LOVING IT, but not LIKING IT. I am so sorry. Your content is literally the highlight of some of my days.
-goes back to like all the videos-
Aww 🥺 that’s so sweet of you!! I always forget liking is a thing too, so I get it 😊
These kinds of videos and scenery just melt my heart... its calms my soul and makes me very peaceful and happy
I love this video! Cozy ambience
You are so brave for being honest in front of people who you dont know.. i used to be like this.. i have been so hurt.. i prefer to hide.. thank u ❤.
Not to be a stickler or whatever, but to anyone reading, be careful with your eyes/face around having a fire on smaller rocks like that. They can absolutely explode and shatter in the fire hahah, I've had it happen many times. Beautiful video. Beautiful river. Beautiful beach. Beautiful life.
such good vibes from this! making me want to leave Duluth and drive up the shore!!
I absolutely love love your videos!!! You're so brave and inspirational!!!❤❤ I'm currently on the process of getting my van ready to travel. And you're inspiring me even more!!!
I’m watching this video months after it aired( 9 August). Yes, often when I get depressed, getting away to be alone, even if it’s just for an hour walk, very often is just what I need. Other times, I need to talk to my adult kids, or my hubby, or FaceTime with my grand baby ( yep, it’s still COVID-19 time, and I can’t be anywhere near my kids or grandchildren (1 I’ve never met in person yet. He was born end of June, in Germany. I live in New Mexico). Lately that’s the main reason I’ve been depressed. Oh, I love the music played in this video 🥰
Dude your incredible. I’m subscribing! Just found you and have fallen in love with your genuineness and bravery to go out and tackle the world head on on your own and enjoy the simplest yet most meaningful and beautiful aspects to this life there is ❤️ love from Aus
What a lovely video thanks so much. I suffer from depression too, nature is a wonderful healer :)
Can you please make a video of how you sustain yourself? What kind of foods you do you eat normally during van life? How often do you splurge eating out? When you do, what do you typically go for? From the videos I’ve seen so far, I am amazed at how you satiate your hunger with such tiny amounts of foods! Is it because camping food is packed with nutritional value? Any things you miss while on the road food/cooking wise?
Such a wonderful episode, thanks for sharing, much love ☺️
Hannah you're an amazing person so dont ever forget that.
Hi miss Hannah I just wanted to thank you.i am a 54yr old girl lol I suffer from anxiety and depression all my life I feel the lonely - nessa and wanting to run away. Sorry, well oct.4th I I fractured my tail bone and can't sit much I ran across your videos last month dec.2020 . Started viewing your life the places you go have helped my depression I lay on my bed side to side I close my eyes and here the water in the videos relax me so thank you. My the lord be with you.
Thanks for your perspective! The hammock by the water looks like a dream right now!
You remind me a lot of myself and I just want to say thank you for your videos and sharing with us. I am from Minnesota also and you have inspired me so much to get out and enjoy nature alone and being content with life and the little things. Still hoping I magically run into you somewhere here in MN 😂💗
A Minnesotan UA-camr? Never thought I’d see the day! Love going up north and getting out of Minneapolis.
Please be safe during your hikes ... alone in the wilderness I’d worry if you slipped and injured-- who knows where you’re at? Love your videos.
Cheer up Hannah...keep safe.
Most of us are under some sort of lockdown orders...u still get to enjoy the great outdoors.
Wow, @11:20 really hit me in the feels. Very much enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing
This video (first time watcher) made me genuinely just so happy lol 💞. Laying... Eggs🦆😂 thank you for being you 😊💕
I would be collecting pebbles and rocks to paint on. Beautiful scenery
I wish I completed my driver's liscence now, being able to work from home n having the freedom. I've showed my oldest, who's 17, your vlogs, saying this is what you n your mates can do if you all drive
So beautiful and inspiring. I love your videos. You are so amazingly talented and create beauty of the smallest things. Thank you.
I'm impressed with the incredible tranquil scenery and the beauty of Minnesota ! Excellent video I feel I'm out there with you eating the pasta you made !
Great video. The location on the beach was amazing! Reminded me of my trips up along Lake Superior in the UP of Michigan. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the share Hannah! 👌
Stay sweet, and be who you are, I'm sure you will be very happy!
This is a great video. Sitting by a swift-flowing river is great.
Last spring i went exploring on an island just off the coast of finland and it was peak goose egg laying season. I was terrified lol those birds dont play ❤️✨ love your videos, thanks for sharing
I adore you and your beautiful videos. They make me feel so at one with nature and so at ease. Currently can’t sleep as my anxiety is bad and this has helped me so much xxxx thank you so so much xxx
What a beautiful moment.....
I'm not all that far from Beaver Bay. Just up over the hill in Finland. You should check out Illgen Falls. Just up Hwy 1. Got a bit of a hike. Tettegouche has a great beach too. Come during the summer months too if you can. So Beautiful in this area. More areas to explore once the snow is gone. Should check out Black Beach just east of Silver Bay. Should look me up some time. You're always welcome to come hang out n camp in my front yard too.
stay strong and enjoy the journey.
Thanks for all the work you put into filming and editing this.
It was quite interesting, informative, and beautiful to watch.
Happy Trails
