I am a great grandmother, I am home all the time caring for my husband with Vascular Dementia. I do love the out doors and wilderness, so glad you posted your video, I will be watching for new ones from now on. Hope all good things works out for you, hope you find the job you want. Take care, until next time, looking forward to your travels.
I’m the Allianz Canada caregiver Award winner BC Alberta Yukon NWT for full time ( overtime) caring of my adult child with LGS. God bless you dear g gram!
I am 60 and I took care of my 89 yr old mom who passed away during the big C and now I take care of my 92 year old dad. I too come to watch him since I can’t go do what he’s doing. It’s nice that we have his videos to bring us close to the nature we love ❤🙏
@@ToltecgrlHi I'm 62, my parents, both in their mid 90s have just recently passed over.. so glad I was able to care for them as their time to leave the planet drew to close.. I had nothing left in the tank at the end and have been slowly recovering my equilibrium .. sending you love from New Zealand..🕊🤍
@@de-nz4jp Thank You! oh my gosh! I’m sorry to hear that. I’m happy they had you there to help them! Praying for Blessings for you to help you move forward in life. 🙏❤️🕊️🕯️ Love from California! ❤️🙏
So refreshing to see a regular person in a regular truck in a regular place. Most people who post these lately have an abundance of money & flashy toys.
Most who live in vans or campers are actually u hosed so too have these flashy people act as if it’s sone sorta glamour life? Dbag action is what that truly is. This Channel is way more real.
Hi, first time I've seen your videos. Please don't ignore that feeling when something is telling you to get out. That is the God's holy spirit speaking. I have experienced it for a long time. Started when I was a teen. I'm 85 and had an experience last week when a man from my neighborhood visited. God bless you.
Always pay heed to your gut feeling never ignore it,my late Father had an uneasy feeling when he got up for work in the mine it paid off as the coal face he was working on collapsed killing two of his colleagues,Best Wishes from UK ❤❤
New subscriber! Love your camper, and I envy your free spirit and love of nature! I appreciate you picking up trash that inconsiderate people dumped! It's encouraging to see someone who cares about our earth! Leave no trace, people!
No, as a trash picker-upper, I don't think people have common decency! I live in Arizona and with our open border, all types of human filth pouring in, believe me when I say they don't even think about leaving a trail of crap behind them.
I agree that everyone should be packing-in and packing-out their own waste. Thank you for picking up, even from others. The other day when I was surfing, I was at a spot and on my way back while carrying my board, I used my food bag and picked up trash on my way back to my vehicle. so many thanked me. It was so easy. It's funny, I like to mountain bike, but my favorite is riding uphill. That was a nice biking trail. Yes, proper clothing and gear always the best. Seeing the fog roll in, I am used to that living in our mountains, but when I saw the fog, I thought about one of my summers in Maine as a residential camp counselor and instructor, we were on a day off and weather was very misty and foggy. It was so quiet. Then I heard, thump, thump, seriously it was a moose. Literally walked right up to our vehicle. We just kept still, and it walked off. Nice to see, but scary at that moment too. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy. Cheers!
If I had a son, I would like to think he would be a lot like you, taking delight at fog on the mountain, having mountain bike experiences and taking pleasure in life generally including picking up other peoples rubbish and having "the perfect day". Great video.
Hi there from Manhattan! I woke up spooked (because I heard a scary story during the day) and decided to UA-cam. I’m also new to your channel. Watching your video totally changed my headspace. Phenomenal video!!! I would love to be out there on an adventure like that. Watching you enjoy your day was uplifting, too-you’ve managed to retain this innocence, I felt like I was watching one of God’s creatures enjoy paradise. I hope that doesn’t come out wrong I really mean it in a very good way. Anyways, thanks for all the effort putting these videos together and sharing your experience. I am ready to go back to snoozing. Stay safe and happy!
First time watching you Kevin. I live on the Island (but south), so enjoyed your adventure very much. You're a special kinda guy, honest, open, and NOT a loser. Thks for showing that not only losers ruin nature by not packing out, that it's the good people like yourself who kinda make up the balance. Everyone can make a difference in doing something good. I'll be sure to check out some more of your posts. Loved ridin on the bike with you too. Yeehaw!
Your video just popped up, so I watched. I have to tell you, the music was right up my alley, and that downhill bike ride was quite a thrill for this old lady! LOL, I did keep trying to put on the brake, though. 😂 Stay safe and keep riding!
This is first time finding you Kevin… so nice to watch your video … thank you so much for sharing with us all I’ve subscribed to your channel now … I’ll start at the beginning 👍👍 oh and good luck on the job search hon …😊👍 take care and always be safe and you are correct when u go by your gut on things around you …retired police dispatch … also I agree people need to clean up behind themselves that was sad … you are awesome young man take care …
Hi Kevin! I feel the same as you about crowds....no thx. Good for you cleaning up because there are only some of us that clean up whilst the others wreck it. Safe travels!
Dude, Vancouver Island is a hot spot for activity. The UA-cam channel The Facts By How To Hunt will advise you don't want to join the club of no return especially in the Squamish area and Whistler. Be safe man!
Tons of Meth heads and derainged types on Island too. Gold River is run by Meth heads with large scale Meth labs they won’t think twice about stealing your RV or Van and leaving you tied up for for Cougars too Eat. There’s truly a very dark side too many BC rural areas. Be safe
Kevin, I think most of us found out during Covid that being by yourself doesn't mean you lonely, for most it brings peace. At least its that way for me. Found your channel by chance I love Canada it is beautiful. From what is shown on most videos. I must visit one day. Stay safe and see you in the next one.
You are the 1st youtuber that I watch that doing cycling (exercising ) while traveling and moving around. One good way to really enjoy the surrounding area on that place 👍
The beeping may come from your refrigerator because it’s not receiving enough voltage or is out of propane. If you don’t check it, this could result in food spoiling. Hearing the beep could allow you to run a generator or other power source to keep your food safe.
I’m not a biker, but am curious if those trails are one way. Can’t imagine running into another biker going that fast and trying to stop! Beautiful scenery ❤
So glad this popped up on my feed! New subscriber for the following reasons: • You have the good sense to listen to your gut • You recognize that litter bugs are losers (and I will add lazy and self-entitled to their description) • I've lived in Vancouver all my life and although I've loved it deeply, over the last few years it's really grated on me. It's quickly becoming generic and quite frankly, a dive. It breaks my heart. I've been desperately trying to find someplace to move, out of the city... ANYWHERE in this country! I've agonized over this place and that, and nothing seems right UNTIL... fate intervened, through you!! CUMBERLAND! How did I not know about that gorgeous town?! THAT'S EXACTLY THE KIND OF PLACE I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR❤❤❤❤ Lastly, you seem to have a great demeanor and that makes your video enjoyable to watch. 🙂👍🏼 Looking forward to checking out the rest of your channel!
This has been so much fun to watch - very enjoyable. I was holding my breath while you were flying along that bike path. That color blue of your rain jacket is one of my very favorites, too. You have so much joy for living. I liked and subscribed. Looking forward to more. Take care.
Thanks for all the videos Kevin. They are great! One trick we use for the freezer is a very thin cutting board(s) in the back. Ice just lifts off anytime. no chipping/blow dryer needed.
Yeah, it's a very common trick in the rv community, started with the absorption fridges because they ice up fast. U can get those flimsy plastic thin cutting boards, (u can easily cut em too), pretty much everywhere now, i use two at the back of the freezer try to cover as much of the back as possible n two i put on the bottom of freezer. Bought long ones. I have a 3 way fridge, so i get the same build up quickly too. And defrosting is super quick as the ice builds up on them. 🍻
Thank you Kevin for taking me on a tour of the island. It’s beautiful. That bike ride was insane. Wow. I will never see or go to where you are at so thank you again. Take care
Your videos are so nice! Everyday life in stunning places. That bike ride was crazy fun, I am a 72 year old Granna, I was cringing a few time, you are a pro! Your music is perfect, thank you for showing me the sites and fun experiences. Blessings to you and stay safe. I’ll be watching🥰
YASSSSS! Love your rendition of Dont Stop Believing by Journey! I dont ride a mountain bike but got a little rush from you going down that trail! WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!
If you don't mind a suggestion, get a small vacuum sealer to do your freezer meats. Lasts better, takes up last room. And sorry to sound like a mom...well, I am one, so it comes naturally. Just discovered your channel and am happy to follow a fellow Canadian.
Took me back in time. Love your setup and your vibe. Great trail ride! Pretty sure that inlet you showed leading out into the Pacific was Port Alberni. Ferried a fishing trawler from there once with an overnight anchor in Port Renfrew. Heard whales during the night and woke up to sea otters playing on the dock there. Absolutely beautiful spot you found. My kind of weather too. Subbed!
I feel the same, disappointing with people’s attitudes these days. Your’s is refreshing though and enjoyable ;) Good job cleaning up…glad you got to enjoy the beautiful views in peace. Cooking fish in the camper is a no no😂
Well I had to give you a like. You seem like a genuine kinda person, happy you are enjoying the island. We live in the hustle and bustle of Victoria. We noticed too how much quieter it is up in Comox/ Courtney. Mt Washington is a great spot too. We also haven't been past Campbell River. We will enjoy it with you. Thanks for posting.
Kevin don't tell the world where you plan to be in the next week etc. People are crazy out there. Be safe. And by the way the trails were awesome, i flew off and died about 10 times.
9:30 I get allot of pervs in rest areas circling around my rv as a sort of advertisement/ proposition. That's when I open the window shades , turn on the overhead light and start cleaning out my 9mm noise maker.
Ya!! Awesome video! I was in Courtenay this summer too! Cycled around there too - including Denman and Hornby Islands. Because you - you inspired me to get out!! Thanks Kev!!
If you are still on the Island. Holberg and San Josef Beach on the north end are really interesting. Spent some time as a teenager working at the store in Coal Harbour in the 1960s. Quatsino Inlet and Winter Harbour were really interesting places with all kinds of settlers, who first came in the early 1900s. Amazing country
Tip: Mount Caine and Mount Washington (Comox Valley area) on the North Island will probably be hiring soon. Propane is available at Costco and at the Black Creek Gas Station. Cheers.
Just to add a wee bit more comfort to your already bizarre evening, it wasn't a bird that buzzed your camper, it was a bat, lol. New subscriber, great channel!😊👍
I wish you would have started in Swartz Bay …. You would have seen the Capital of BC … Victoria and then traveled the 8 hour drive… only if you don’t stop long lol 11:38
Kevin “Granma” speaking..please defrost your freezer - it is more fuel efficient and proper core temperature for meats is maintained…. This Granny has a food degree.
Great video Kevin...nice to see you out on the island. It is almost like its own little country on the island. Looking forward to more fun adventures on the island.
Great day for biking …perfect weather and an awesome path!! My heart stopped a few times…nice job handling. Singing was the cherry on top😂 Nice to see you in your happy place.
Hi Kevin, my first time seeing you. You mentioned possibly going to Alberta, just want to let you know Baniff had a big wild fire this past summer. I know people whose houses didn’t burn are back home. Just check before you go. Kim
Staying on Mt. Washington was a better idea. I managed that Costco gas station for 13 years. Never an issue. The car circling around you is just kids who hang out. They won't bother you. Walmart in Courtenay I don't recommend to stay as that area is sketchy. Enjoy riding Cumberland. Consider working the ski hill here, it's a great place to hunker down for winter. They will measure the bike as well when going on the ferry. Stow it in your camper when going on the ferry. Have fun on the VI.
Hi Kevin! I just love your life is life approach to your channel! So enjoying it but also learning so much about the lifestyle you’ve chosen…maybe see you on the road somewhere!
I just came upon your channel. Thank you for being a good human and cleaning up. People just know how to desecrate everything. Look what happened to Everest! I hope you are safe and happy. All the best to you.
Great job on the video! Looking forward to the next video. We’ll be heading out there sooner than later. Looking forward to doing some mountain biking and exploring.
So, watching your video and realized that you very rarely camp with your truck camper. Rarely see you sitting around the campfire, cooking outdoors. I see you love hicking and biking. I really enjoy your videos, anjvmd you make me want to camp in Canada!
@@KevinWaldsAdventures I love your videos, and your explorations, always on the go, I just hope that you take the time to love your camper and its surroundings. Sit back on an ocation or two and enjoy the ride ( Life ) my friend ! Looking forward to a killer recipe for cooking over the fire...lol🤣😂🤣
LOL... Don't play with your food ,Kevin.. 😂! Love the haircut. I also enjoyed the mountain bike ride ,what beautiful scenery. When it gets foggy it makes me tired for some reason. Thank you for another great video. LOVE FROM IOWA! 😊❤❤❤
Just watched my first video of yours. I am subscribing only because of your outlook. I want to encourage you to remember, no matter what, that a perfect day like you had in this video can happen anytime. I have a problem with being out around a lot of people also, nothing diagnosed, just don’t enjoy it. So I get it. Here’s to more perfect days 🍻
You are simply the sweetest and most joyous guy! Loved everything about your video....and I agree with you, the foggy, drizzly days are THE BEST!!❤ So happy for you that you had an awesome day riding....thank you for taking us along on your trek and visit into town....(and for cleaning up after jerk losers)....🚴♂️🚵♂️
I too just had your channel come on my feed..so glad ..love your haircut 😊...thank you for picking up other people's trash..we do the same thing..always listen to your gut feelings, Will be watching more your channel and love that music..its not stressful...by the way..I love the sound of your truck's motor..😊
Gr8 job on the cleanup Kevin. I will go up island next year. I have a hack i learned on opening my impossible food waste bags. Take 2 small pieces of tape, one on one side, flip it over and put the other one on the other side. Overlap both pieces over the edge. Dont have to be perfectly aligned. Pull apart. Everyone has crappy tape, i have crappy masking tape that wont come off, but it does come off in little pieces, which is perfect. Plus masking tape cane be easily ripped by hand. Best traction is slightly damp dirt, goldilocks.
If you like real wilderness, the Sea to Sky highway, including Squamish and Whistler, are not my goto places. As you say, really insane with people and vehicles most of the time. Beautiful scenery, but hey, I like peace and quiet. BTW, nice rig dude and thanks for cleaning up the firepit.
I am a great grandmother, I am home all the time caring for my husband with Vascular Dementia. I do love the out doors and wilderness, so glad you posted your video, I will be watching for new ones from now on. Hope all good things works out for you, hope you find the job you want. Take care, until next time, looking forward to your travels.

You'd think people had the common decency to pick up their own trash. 😢 Your efforts are more appreciated than you might think. Many Blessings.

Great job of showing a little slice of the island... 👍
Kevin “Granma” speaking..please defrost your freezer - it is more fuel efficient and proper core temperature for meats is maintained…. This Granny has a food degree.
Great video Kevin...nice to see you out on the island. It is almost like its own little country on the island. Looking forward to more fun adventures on the island.
Great day for biking …perfect weather and an awesome path!!
My heart stopped a few times…nice job handling. Singing was the cherry on top😂
Nice to see you in your happy place.
Journey...🤘🤘 loved the trail ride, beautiful!
This was a fun video !! Great of you to do your part in picking up the trash,wish more were like you !
I can’t believe you found the only dry spot to park in!
Hi Kevin, my first time seeing you. You mentioned possibly going to Alberta, just want to let you know Baniff had a big wild fire this past summer. I know people whose houses didn’t burn are back home. Just check before you go. Kim
Yes it was very heart breaking! 💔 I lived 3 hours from the area that burnt 😢 spent a lot of time in that area
Are you sure it was Banff and not Jasper? Big difference between the two.
@@chrisallen2005 it was jasper
Staying on Mt. Washington was a better idea. I managed that Costco gas station for 13 years. Never an issue. The car circling around you is just kids who hang out. They won't bother you. Walmart in Courtenay I don't recommend to stay as that area is sketchy. Enjoy riding Cumberland. Consider working the ski hill here, it's a great place to hunker down for winter. They will measure the bike as well when going on the ferry. Stow it in your camper when going on the ferry. Have fun on the VI.
Good info ..little things mean a lot.
Hi Kevin! I just love your life is life approach to your channel! So enjoying it but also learning so much about the lifestyle you’ve chosen…maybe see you on the road somewhere!
My wife and I visited Vancouver Island in our truck camper and it was a lot of fun. :)
I just came upon your channel. Thank you for being a good human and cleaning up. People just know how to desecrate everything. Look what happened to Everest! I hope you are safe and happy. All the best to you.
Wow what a view on the island. And, awesome hearing you describe the quiet. Love that
Great job on the video! Looking forward to the next video. We’ll be heading out there sooner than later. Looking forward to doing some mountain biking and exploring.
Alright, so while you were riding I collided with every tree you went between and impaled myself on every stump you past…😂
🤣🤣🤣
So, watching your video and realized that you very rarely camp with your truck camper. Rarely see you sitting around the campfire, cooking outdoors. I see you love hicking and biking. I really enjoy your videos, anjvmd you make me want to camp in Canada!
There was a fire ban until just after I filmed this video, there will be some campfires coming! lol
@@KevinWaldsAdventures I love your videos, and your explorations, always on the go, I just hope that you take the time to love your camper and its surroundings. Sit back on an ocation or two and enjoy the ride ( Life ) my friend ! Looking forward to a killer recipe for cooking over the fire...lol🤣😂🤣
Good times! Thanks for sharing 👍
Great video!! Looking forward to seeing more of the mountain bike trails in beautiful BC ❤
LOL... Don't play with your food ,Kevin.. 😂! Love the haircut. I also enjoyed the mountain bike ride ,what beautiful scenery. When it gets foggy it makes me tired for some reason. Thank you for another great video. LOVE FROM IOWA! 😊❤❤❤
Agree with you on the overcast days and the fog just adds to it ☁️
Just watched my first video of yours. I am subscribing only because of your outlook. I want to encourage you to remember, no matter what, that a perfect day like you had in this video can happen anytime. I have a problem with being out around a lot of people also, nothing diagnosed, just don’t enjoy it. So I get it. Here’s to more perfect days 🍻
Home sweet home in the camper. So cozy. Yes, lol, garbage bags can be frustrating to open. I've noticed that.
You are simply the sweetest and most joyous guy! Loved everything about your video....and I agree with you, the foggy, drizzly days are THE BEST!!❤ So happy for you that you had an awesome day riding....thank you for taking us along on your trek and visit into town....(and for cleaning up after jerk losers)....🚴♂️🚵♂️
I love traveling with you. I get to see places I will never make it to in person. Thank you.❤
Thanks for taking us on the mtb trail. glad you're getting some use out of that bike. 😊
WOW! That was awesome ❤❤❤thanks for sharing Kevin
I too just had your channel come on my feed..so glad ..love your haircut 😊...thank you for picking up other people's trash..we do the same thing..always listen to your gut feelings,
Will be watching more your channel and love that music..its not stressful...by the way..I love the sound of your truck's motor..😊
Gr8 job on the cleanup Kevin. I will go up island next year. I have a hack i learned on opening my impossible food waste bags. Take 2 small pieces of tape, one on one side, flip it over and put the other one on the other side. Overlap both pieces over the edge. Dont have to be perfectly aligned. Pull apart. Everyone has crappy tape, i have crappy masking tape that wont come off, but it does come off in little pieces, which is perfect. Plus masking tape cane be easily ripped by hand. Best traction is slightly damp dirt, goldilocks.
If you like real wilderness, the Sea to Sky highway, including Squamish and Whistler, are not my goto places. As you say, really insane with people and vehicles most of the time. Beautiful scenery, but hey, I like peace and quiet. BTW, nice rig dude and thanks for cleaning up the firepit.
New to your channel! Can dweller from Seattle! Always trust your instincts is what I have learned ! Great video nice haircut ❤
Awesome, thanks Kevin
