- They are a vanlife reference here! - Anyone looking for tips or tricks on vanlife in the last few years ended up seeing those guys online at some point.
Valérie and Alexandre, the nomad couple behind PRÊTS POUR LA ROUTE, are among the most extreme and consistent vanlifers of the Province. They've adapted their jobs to finally make a full-time living travelling across North America, creating content and helping others achieve their dreams.
What a perfect occasion to test Route 148: our new vanlife route in Western Quebec.

WHO ARE YOU? WHAT’S WITH YOUR ACCENT?
I'm Dom, a Canadian content creator and vanlifer. I spend most of my time behind my camera or behind the wheel, exploring North America while making a living out of my marketing skills. I spent the last 5 years travelling part time around to world to create content for travel and adventure brands, including van rental companies.
My mission: inspire and entertain people who want to start #vanlife.________
Another great video, the Pontiac is an amazing place. And what an awesome idea you had. Nothing like this in the state's. Their actually taking away land because of van lifer's, but from what i see american van lifer's have a lot less manners then Canadian's. Thank you for sharing this wonderful series
Cheers 🥂🥂
Thanks Joseph! You have to come and visit!
Your absolutely right I live in America and I know firsthand that they have less manners than Canadians do! I want to move to Canada so bad because of all the horrible things here now. And Canada is so incredibly beautiful I would love to live in such a beautiful country
Wow! Quel beau moment on a passé avec vous! À très bientôt!
C’était particulièrement réussie comme journée. Imprévisible et niaiseuse à souhaits! Merci de vous être déplacés dans mon coin de pays. On recommence bientôt je l’espère!
So nice to have my 2 favorite Québecois channels come together !
Thanks Emile! It was a fun experience all around!
Merci beaucoup pour les bons mots!

@@vanlifesagas I'm really enjoying your content. The Pontiac looks like a really awesome place. I'd love to go there sometime. One day. For now I'll just have to make do with the Lake District in the UK.
Quelle belle finale. Bravo! Tes tout derniers mots sont touchants. Bonne continuation, en espérant que tu ne t’arrête pas là.
Merci beaucoup! Ce n’est qu’un début!
Another great video Dan. Thanq.🤗
Thanks!
Very cool ! Great video and such stunning views As always TY Sir
You are welcome Steven!
Super boulot! Merci la gang 🤙🏼
Merci Steven!
Bravo Donminic pour ce beau projet! Toi et tes complices m’avez donné le goût d’aller explorer le Pontiac. Comme toi, j’habite a Gatineau…dans le comté perdu de Templeton et je vais déjà du vélo sur la 148 direction Buckingham, mais maintenant je vais apporter mon vélo dans le Pontiac et en faire sur la 148 dans cette belle région! BRAVO encore une fois!
Merci Andrée! C’est vraiment une belle région et tant mieux si on a donné le goût aux gens de la visiter. Bonne route!
Everything is so bloody amazing looks unreal dudes, simply MAJESTIC. What a fascinating country you have, definetely. Water slide... had to watch it four times. Everything is better when you are surrounded by good people. ¡¡Pura Vida!! This route should be replicated in here as well, but it will be the whole country since we are kinda small 🤣 .
Thank you! We have a beautiful country indeed! With wonderful people in it for sure! Come and visit!
Aww, Dom, what a great adventure. Thanks for showing us the Pontiac, it’s amazing! So beautiful. You’ve raised the bar for yourself with this one, my man!! What the heck is next? Let’s go!!! 😄😄Have a wonderful week! Big hug to you from Kentucky🧡
⭐️that Poutine looked very good ⭐️
Thanks Jana! Hope you are safe and sound in Kentucky and not in the middle of those floods! Keep watching!
@@vanlifesagas I am safe in western Kentucky. It’s a sad situation for our neighbors in eastern KY. Thank you for your concern 😊
Merci for showing us ‘The Pontiac’ what a gorgeous area!
It is indeed a gorgeous region! With great people! Thanks for watching!
I’ve really enjoyed watching every one of these videos about the Pontiac in Quebec I’ve always wanted to go to Canada, hopefully one day soon I will get there. Lol!!
Where are you now?
Very interesting project, bravo to all the team! je vais rouler et savourer cette route assurément dans ma mini van aménagée!
Thanks Joanne et bonne route!
Van is in the shop now!
Will definitely be checking this out. Brilliant
Better double down on the French lessons 😁
Merci pour cette découverte. Je vais aller faire un tour dans cette belle région!
Bienvenue Jade et bonne visite!
Great series Dom 👍🏻
Thanks Mike and the boys! More to come.
Good to see you back Dom. And thanks for this series of videos. My wife and I are leaving in 10 days on a trip to Maine and the Maritime provinces in our camper van, and we’re taking the “shortcut” from the UP of Michigan through Ontario. The plan was to follow 17 through Sudbury and along the Ottawa River, then skirt Ottawa before crossing into NY. But now we’re looking forward to hitting the 148 before we duck back into the States. If you see a white Transit with Michigan plates say hi! And if I see Vanessanessa I’ll do the same -if I can catch up to your yellow stripes that is.
Did you end up doing the trip?
@@vanlifesagas Yes! We had an amazing time in the Pontiac, then after Fiona chased us out of Nova Scotia we came back to Quebec and spent some time in Quebec City and Montreal. We loved it, and will definitely be back. But not this fall, we sold our van and are starting to build another. 😁
Fantastic, on my to do of places to explore! Anne was great!
Isn’t she great! Thanks for watching!
Simply outstanding!
Thanks Kat!
Great way to capture the Pontiac!
Thanks!
9,5/10 Alex!!!!!!! Ooohhhhhh la tu me donnes encore plus envie d’essayer!!!!!
Super projet félicitations Dom et ta gang
Merci fois mille!
amazing! love theses vlogs, i soooo want to go to the pontiac!!!!! 🙂
Thank you Cristina! Pontiac is waiting for you!
Salut Dominique, Qu'elle superbe série, et très belle idée de faire découvrir ce coin du Québec que jeune connaissait pas ... merci a toi 'être toi même et bien heureux de te revoir au "petit" écran ....Bien hâte de voir les autres projet et ou vidéo .. en passant un petit video avec ton papa afin de s'avoir comment il vas et il est rendu a combien de van de fait ;-) .. salutation a ta mère
Merci de nous suivre! Mon papa reviendra bientôt dans de futurs projets!
Can’t wait!!!
Be patient!
Très beau projet dans le Pontiac! 💛🙏🏽
Merci Émilie!
Great series. I miss poutine!! Can't get a good one in BC. Look forward to doing route 148 next time I am in Quebec.
Thanks Margo! Poutine is yummy here! Happy trails !
In Philly we had a store here that sold poutine that had all kinds of stuff on it including meat ! Sadly they went out of business shortly before covid. The fries and combo of stuff on them were amazing !
Poutine is legend. You should eat at least once a week.
Un réel bonheur de te voir renouer avec tes rêves , et ton sourire ton projet de route 148 est tous simplement génial pour tous le monde notre pays est si beau et quelques fois oublié je vois de plus en plus de van(vannes ) même à St-Thérèse à 40 minute des belles pentes de skies à StSauver l’hiver ici c’est magnifique (Suzanne)
Merci Daniel , Suzanne et merci de nous suivre!
What a beautiful and amazing place. On the road with the wife and a kiddo, I have grown to appreciate a well planned bathroom facility. The kiddo had a surprising experience with a not well planned facility at a stop on Mt Lemmon in Arizona.
Thank you! It is always nice to know where the bathroom facilities are…specially with children!
Poutine 2 sauces together, YES please!!! :D Merci Dom! :)
LET'S DO THIS!
Brilliant!!!
Merci Monika!
Belle gang et ça donne le goût de visiter Pontiac.
Venez-vous en! On vous attend!
Définitivement, je mets sur ma todo list de faire un roadtrip sur la route 148 dans le Pontiac! Quel merveilleux projet! Merci! By the way, par chez-nous, des "crottes de fromage" c'est des croustilles oranges et puffy pis du "fromage en crotte" c'est du fromage en grains comme dans les poutines. Peut-être que les significations et expressions sont différentes d'une région à l'autre...
Bonne route Guylaine! Crottes de fromage ou fromage en crottes, les deux sont tellement bons!
Loved this video too, even though it's the last one!
Now Dom -- of COURSE you and Anne are not dating! After you called her your "boring friend" --SHEEESH!!
Good Lord, I'm pretty sure, by the way she looks at you sometimes, she probably really digs you! She seems like a lot of fun too. But, hey, I get it if you're not interested in her that way -- just maybe, you could pass along my # then.... I think she's super cute....
Cheers!...from North Vancouver
Now, now Adrian! We are not a dating app! Thanks for watching!
C'était magique! Surtout le cheese poop 😂💁🏻♀️
Oui Alexandra! C’est bien connu, la magie se trouve souvent ds des endroits inusités
Excellent travel vedio! La prochain fois aux Quebec/Prendergast la route Pontiac :))))))
Not ergast lolll this auto correct
Merci et bienvenue au Québec!
Do the project around the whole province or even better all provinces and territories. That would keep the tourists here ! Well done !!!
Yes that would be a great project! Thinking about it! Thanks for watching!
This was good. Cheese Turd good. You poutine a special sauce into everything you do. Me likey.
Thanks Thierry! I try to poutine the best I can!
Encore merci.
J’ai RÉUSSI à changer de province Qc to BC, je suis même plaqué Motor Home.
Il est intéressant, voir nécessaire, que des gens prennent action dans le développement de la vie en van; c’est plate à dire, mais on a pas (encore) le droit circuler librement au Canadâ.
(Je ne recommande pas la poutine à Port Hardy, BC. Du fromage orange, râpé, brassé dans la sauce sur des frites salées )😫
Merci Jean! C'était très agréable avec cette bande de joyeux lurons!
Vendu !! Je pars le 12 août et je viens découvrir
!! Ça marche Pontiac !!!! 😅😀😀😀
Bon voyage Sandra! Vous ne serez pas déçue!
@@vanlifesagas Mon premier road trip solo en terrain inconnu :):)
Je ne suis pas bilingue mais j'ai tout compris. Contenus bilingue bonne idée. Contenus vanlife.. je m'abonne deux fois si c'était possible. Hâte de vous découvrir. (Connus par "PRÈTS pour la route").
Merci beaucoup! Thank you very much!
Penses-tu que c’est sécuritaire 😂😂😂
hahaha ! " on s'est pogné ensemble!"
C'était vraiment une belle niaiserie.
15min 37sec : T'est tu sûr c'est (safe)? 😂😂😂
Peut être pas safe…mais ben l’fun! Don’t try this at home!
On pourrait donner notre cv pour le prochain jackass
💖
Coeur à toi aussi!
Cheese poop definitely needs BBQ sauce!
For sure!
DOM!!! Vous devriez faire un autre vidéos avec des moments cocasses ou autres entre invités !? 🤔🙂
Bonne idée! On garde ça en tête! Merci 🙏
