When we wake, hear the birds and see the sun
Side by side, our fears are done
All the good times just begun
We know what we have, let's hold on tight
Found what we're looking for in life
Call us crazy, but things are finally right
With you and I, the future is bright
That's so beautiful!
Sorry, I look in my viewfinder because I want to see the view too
I should have bring the cat
It's just a rest area here
And the alley is just above us
Yeah, maybe I'm going to come back with the cat
I want to make breakfast too
I think I'm going to make a cup of tea and come back with the cat
I don't think so many cats came here to look at the beautiful view, kitty
You're a lucky girl
You know that?
You don't care about the view, huh?
You care about the birds
I know
I still can't believe how beautiful it is
And I was thinking, you know
All those people told me I should not travel
I should not travel with the cat
And should not leave my job
It's crazy
I'm telling you guys
I was 100% worth it
Just for that sneak peak right there
Just for that little moment
Walking with my cat
In this gorgeous place
I was all worth it
Speechless
Literally, come on
And I know my camera is not picking up
A tiny little bit of how beautiful it is
But I just took a couple pictures of my cat
Which I think is going to be really beautiful
So I don't post so much pictures on Instagram
I know I have to improve myself on this
But I think you're going to have a couple beautiful pictures of my cat
In this gorgeous scenery
Alright, I didn't go get breakfast yet
So that's what I'm going to do
Don't look too close from the edge, kitty
It's got a big cliff here
It's funny how people who love us the most
Are the ones who try to stop us
From doing what we want to do in life
I've been dreaming my entire life to travel
Everyone told me that I should find a good job
Buy a house
And after all that
Maybe I could travel
I followed everyone's advice
And I thought that that was the solution
But the more I was trying to follow everyone's advice
The more unhappy I was
As I'm here traveling
I wonder why I didn't follow my dream sooner
Why I follow everyone's dream instead of mine
I feel like it's the first time that I follow my dream
A lot of people try to stop me from doing this trip
A lot of people try to stop me from living in a van
And living in a van with a cat
They try to stop me from quitting my job
That didn't fulfill me
This is the first time that I take some time for myself
I don't know where this trip is going to bring me
But I have a feeling this trip is going to change me
I can't wait to see where life is going to bring me
Where the next turn is going to bring me
In my previous life
I was wondering why I was not truly happy
What was wrong with me?
That's so funny because
The answer of this was just to follow my dreams
So the whole area that I am right now
Is an old mine town
So you're going to see a lot of those things
But I think it's an outside museum
I'm going to show you what I see right now
Obviously I have no idea what those things are for
But I'm quite sure it was things from the mine
I look on the map and there is some goat town
From the old mine area
So I'm really curious to go see that
I'm going to see if I can have a view of the beach right now
And go a little bit further
So based on the map
I don't think I have access to the beach here
But the next town seems to have a beach
And it's just I think 10 minutes down the road there
So let's do this
That is so cool, old building
I don't know where it was before
At the beginning of the trail
They would say that the park was closed
So I'm not sure what I'm going to be able to see
I think it's got a museum too
But it's closed because of COVID
So yeah we'll see what I can find
I mean I see a couple of buildings
I don't know how far I can go
Oh little cat
Go under the car
Let's get a house that must belong to them
A lot of old bus
Very old
That's cool
A fire hall
I like it here
More bus
All those people who look for bus
They all have a little history on them
So there's like a tour of bus that go around
But it's closed like I said
So I pretty much cannot go further
So we're going to turn around here
I was like I'm driving all this
Maybe I'm not going to see anything
At least I saw a couple of things
Alright I just pulled over
A little rest area
I'm in the shade right now
Right beside the lake
I should go outside and show you the lake
I'm a bit tired
So I think I'm going to go for a nap
To be honest with you
I woke up so early this morning
Like at 4.30
And I just felt to have a quick little nap
So I think I'm going to let you with this
Hope you enjoy my little morning adventure
Plan on like uploading a video in the next town
And after going back in the backcountry
Campfire and things like this
But right now
Little nap
That's the best part about living in a van
Is you can have a nap pretty much whenever you want
Find a nice little place in the shade
There you go
Little nap
Alright
So I will let you with this
Don't forget to subscribe if you're not already
And I will see you soon
And take care guys
Bye
