Hello travelers! Welcome to my channel :)
Call me Val đłïžâđ Please be kind and respectful to myself and others in the comments. I'm a self-aware, emotionally intelligent person; so trust me when I say I probably know my flaws and what I need to improve already. That's not a challenge. If I want advice and opinions, I will ask.
I do this mainly for myself and figure why not post it. I would love for this to be a safe space for individuals to share their experiences/adventures. Most importantly, individuals of all identities/race/gender are accepted here. Hate speech of any kind or putting individuals down will NOT be tolerated. You have the right to be here if you choose, but kindness is a much more productive way to interact with others. Enjoy!

Guidance / Blurby Thing:
(1) I'm a self-aware, emotionally intelligent person; so trust me I know my flaws and likely know what I need to improve already. If I want advice and opinions, I will ask.
(2) Please be kind and respectful to myself and others in the comments. I would love for this to be a safe space for individuals to share their experiences/adventures.
(3) Individuals of all identities/race/gender/etc. are accepted here. Hate speech of any kind or putting individuals down will NOT be tolerated. You have the right to be here if you choose, but so does everyone else plus they have the right to safety and acceptance. But also kindness is a much more productive way to interact with others.
(4) Practice internet safety. I grew up immersed in the internet world and have been lucky so far to meet kind, supportive individuals. That, unfortunately, does not mean there aren't ill-intentioned individuals out there. Especially if you are a minor, be cautious of who you interact with and decide to befriend. Your safety and wellness should be your top priority. Don't let anyone pressure/convince you into meeting IRL, especially in a non-public setting.
(5) A bit of a subset of 4, it's best not to share real names, locations, timezones. Again this goes especially for minors. I know that makes it hard to converse on more than a high level, but it's your safety. Keep any shared info as vague as possible. For example: I've already said in a video that I'm from AZ, but if I wanted to be more discreet, I can say I'm in the US or not specify at all.
(6) Enjoy the videos and community! I hope you can inspire each other to travel and expand your horizons :)

Halloween - What's lurking underneath it all?
They make the stabilization in cameras so well these days that when you shoot out of your front windshield and catch a bit of the hood, it can give one 2 different motions. I can see how it can make some folks that are prone to motion sickness ill. You shot this and didnât catch any of the hood, so I donât think it will give folks trouble. Love the desert. Safe travels.
Was that an FJ Cruiser you were driving? Donât know if I could get used to driving on the WRONG side :-}. Iâve got a 2007 with 265,000 and still going strong. Just picked up a new 2024 Bronco Heritage, so I can give Ole Faithful a little rest. Happy travels.
Love the scenery and the views and I love the bronco
Hi Val. This is Brian and Tina. We met you at the Bronco Off-Rodeo in Moab. Wow! Your Bronco looks awesome! And it looks like you have been having tons of fun on your adventures. We can't believe the number of places you've taken it. That is so incredible! If you're ever back in Utah, let us know. Would love to go do something with you.
Nice day.
Apologies everyone. I noticed the audio volume is up and down throughout the video. I did watch the video before the upload but something must have gone funky. Thanks for watching and bearing with the quality.
Congratulations on kicking cancer's ass. I'm a cancer survivor too and I can definitely relate to the change in mindset you experience afterward. Your Bronco looks great, where did you get the mountain decals on the side? I've got my eye on the new Gen 4 Tacoma, but I think supply and demand will be equal to your experience with purchasing the Bronco.
Thank you so much! Likewise to you. I'm glad you're here and survived your experience. It is wild how the mindset just flips. I have a bit of a hard time sitting still sometimes because I want to use my free time outside and exploring and not wasting away. Although rest is important too. I get all my decals from Etsy sellers. The one on the bronco specifically was www.etsy.com/shop/SouthernEdgeStudio Good luck with your Tacoma purchase and I hope it isn't a troublesome build and delivery â
@@Dreaming_of_Adventures Thanks for the link to the decal. Enjoy your adventures!!
Your Bronco is sweet! Itâs a great setup. As long as you take care of it and keep up with maintenance it should last a long time. I have a 2006 Jeep Wrangler that I bought brand new and itâs been from Maine to California and a lot of places in between. Have there been issues? Yes, but very few because Iâve been diligent about maintenance. So my point is your Bronco will be fine and will provide years of enjoyment. BTW, I spoke to you briefly at the Pink Mailbox Cleanup.
I remember! It was great to meet you in person and thank you for saying hi. And of course for coming out to the clean up. We all kicked butt in such a short amount of time. More chaotic that the NR folks had planned but the group really came through. You are so right though! If I can take care of the bronco and keep up its maintenance it can really last me a long time. I love that you still have your jeep! You should post more on your adventures đ
they have trees in AZ? didnt know that
Yes! We have trees and lakes and mountains with snow. There's a variety of adventuring to do here. It's just dang hot in the summer đ
The turkeys were a nice bonus
I was wondering if they were turkeys! That's the first time I've ever seen them in the wild in AZ
@@Dreaming_of_Adventures Yes, they were turkeys and are common in that area. They spend most of their time roosting in the pine trees, but occasionally you're lucky enough to see them on the ground.
I saw your Bronco (and the CZcams sticker on the side) at the Sheepâs Crossing cleanup today. Natural Restorations is a great organization, Iâve done 18 of their cleanups. Great message and cool channel. Good luck and keep it up!
Aw yay! Thank you so much for coming out to the clean up! And for the watch and subscribe. That's super kind and appreciated. 18 clean ups is dedication and it makes me happy to know that Nicole and Justin have the support of so many awesome humans. Don't hesitate to say hi at the next clean up if you see the bronco âșïž
Just realized music cuts half way through. Sorry about that đ
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Hi Carmen. So sorry to hear about your emotional rough patch. Sounds like Japan was quite an adventure. Hopefully things are going better now. Does that vehicle you're in happened to be a Bronco? đ
Hi @brian3936! It's so good to hear from you and sorry it's been a long time. Life has been and continues to be quite a rollercoaster, but you know just trying to get through it day by day like everyone else. Japan was absolutely amazing and I miss it every minute of the day but unfortunately getting the Bronco there would be a struggle if wanted to move there haha. instagram.com/carmenv.adventures?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== This is my Instagram, I would love to catch up more and maybe plan a meet up sometime. Maybe offroad?? Yes, that is my beautiful bronco. I got the Gobi Roof Rack installed this past weekend and I have a Goose Gear drawer system / sleeping platform on order. I'm so excited to build out. How are you!? How's life? How's the Bronco??
