Hi Maddie! I have been thinking of starting my own crafts business but I got scared and overwhelmed by the process and if someone would purchase it. When I saw your video on small business on the road, it made me rethink what I am afraid of. And now, I finally got the courage to start my business with scrunchies at first and got a few sales. I would totally say, if I hadn't saw your video, I would still be dreaming of starting it and not doing anything to purchase my dreams. Your videos inspires me so much. Thank you!
Do you have an Etsy page? I always like supporting small businesses:). I would love to possibly order scrunchies!
I would be wary of Etsy or Shopify because their charges can be exorbitant. Perhaps you could set up your own website to sell your crafts, because that way you keep in more control of your expenditure. Good luck with your business venture! ~Wendi 🌻
@@amysimonbiz Hi. For now, I only do local since I'm from the Philippines. But still, thank you 💕
@@Aco747lyte thank you so much. Maybe I'd look into that in the future. But for now, I'm focusing on doing it locally since I'm from the Philippines. It's very expensive to ship internationally.
@@mystievann2192 You’re welcome! Good luck with your small business! Very exciting. Remember, the worst thing that could happen is if you don’t try, then you’ll never know if it could’ve been successful. I know this first hand from many many times I didn’t at least try with selling things in my small business as I was afraid of failing and figured if I just didn’t bother starting then I wouldn’t fail. Which is wrong because you will never succeed at anything in life if you don’t at least try. Sorry if that sounds convoluted, I just took my night time meds and falling asleep. Good luck!
Hey Maddie, I absolutely love your videos! You create a very special athmosphere that conveys so much peace. Your voice is so relaxing that I could listen to you for hours! Greetings from Germany and keep up the good work! 😊
Thanks so much for sharing - it is so wonderful to see the mix of things you do - the art, the quiet alone time (with Eliza, of course), the daily life in your home, and the anticipation of meeting up with friends again. The snake drawing is so detailed - wow - you have some serious patience and skill to do that!
Hope the next festival goes well - stay safe, stay happy
I've been looking for this channel most of my life. The homespun Whitman vibes existing in Maddie's videos are overpowering.
Love your videos Maddie 🥰 I found you through your video about van life with a dog, and I'm amazed by how happy and well behaved Eliza looks! I am starting my journey of living on the road in my SUV this winter with my dog Chai. I am wondering if you can make another video about van life with Eliza, talking about any training you do, any precautions you take to keep her safe, where you feel comfortable to have her off leash, how you keep her on a good feeding schedule, how to clean her paws off before she goes in the van, how you think she likes living on the road, etc.
Thank you so much! 💖
Stay safe & Happy travels,Maddie✌✌✌
You live an amazing life. Keep smiling and live each moment. I wished I had been as brave when I was young to do what you and so many others have in van/bus/RV life. ❤️❤️❤️❤️😁
Maddie, love so much what you have to say about alone time and recharging your energy. I, too recharge with alone time and love sitting in the quiet solitude of nature and absorbing the energy it offers one! ❤
Maddie, I absolutely love your videos, your van, Eliza and you so much! You have a beautiful spirit and such a presence on camera. Glad to see you in Oregon, my home state, which I recently returned to after twenty years away. I’ve also done van life here in the PNW and truck life for many years on a S Pacific Island...it does teach us so many things. New subscriber here! Blessings and much Aloha 🙏💜🌎☮️🌎💜🙏🐾🐾💕
Great video and wise words about valuable things learned with vanlife :) Also, congrats on the new camera!! :)
I love getting inspired by everything you do. The filming style, the art, the quiet alone time. I loved hangin with you and Eliza on the coast, I miss it already
I love everything about you Maddie!
Eliza is so adorable. Beautiful area congrats on the new camera ✌️
your cinematography and storytelling is amazing
Addie, I think your art is brilliant, I love watching you draw and paint. Your reflexions are really cool and thought provocating, even for someone as aged as myself ! Take care and we are with you x
Why do I love watching you run errands? It just makes me feel so good!
Thank you for being transparent. You tend to see the glimpses of life that people want you to see, so it was nice to experience your reality.
Per end of your video festivities those bloops did it again and didn't disappoint. Been out of the YT loop for a bit but it's nice to watch your vids again. Love the new touch of the finger snap frame magic 😁 Thank you again for sharing with us Maddie🤙🌞🙏
Welcome back! ☺️
Gracias Maddie gracias 🤙
I love your videos! 😍😍😍
Can’t wait to see your new van
Hi Maddie. I am a new subscriber, and this is the very first video of yours that I have watched. It is almost impossible for me to find the words adequate enough to fully convey what a treasure and gift this video is to me. From the very first scene, I was captivated. From the gorgeous scenery and cinematography; to your absolutely soothing, gentle, and peaceful spirit; and to the truly and endearingly genuine and sincere way that you let us into your very special space and world; I found it hard to contain my soul from soaring. You are a kindred spirit, Maddie; a true treasure in this world. And this video is now one of my all-time favorites. It's like you put into captivating words, sentiments, feelings, and images, the "soul" of your van life experience; and I am so very grateful for that. I sincerely wish you all the happiness in the world, Maddie. May all your hopes anad dreams come true. 😊
I love this video so much!
🦋This is phenomenal storytelling and striking videography! I felt transported to these places… inwardly being there with you as a silent witness to the elegant unfolding of events in your life. It feels very sacred. I love these vibes and am grateful that you share them freely🦋 I send you many ✨blessings✨ beautiful friend!
You have a very lyrical way to tell your stories about your van life. Love it! 👍🏼
This is incredible. Inspiring
I really loved this video! ❤
If you want to give coffee another try, switching to a dark roast. The heat of roasting gradually breaks down the caffeine, so the darker the roast the lower the caffeine. I can't drink light roasts because of anxiety and can only have one or two medium roasts, but a dark roast like a French roast I can drink several of and I'm fine:) That way you still get all the health benefits of coffee. It has more antioxidants than anything else we eat or drink and reduces incidence of several types of cancer by considerable amounts.
Some people call a sink shower _bird bathing._
Maddie! You spoke to my nomad heart! Unattended dumpsters 🙌🤣 you get it! Thanks for the content. Safe travels ✌️
So glad you're enjoying Oregon! If you end up south again, Sweet Creek Falls is a easier beautiful hike. It's about a 1.5 hr drive from Newport ♥️
I think this is one of my favorite videos of yours. Just regular everyday living. My favorite thing in your food haul was......drum roll......MEDJOOL DATES! I love them! Oregon looks so beautiful! Thank you.
Your home is so beautiful!!! I love it!!!👠🚌👠
You are getting really good at drawing. Very cool.
The greatest help to your lifestyle choice has been your wonderful friends who committed themselves to looking out for you. You also have a loyal following on CZcams, and a small artwork business, so you are not nearly as alone as you sometimes feel, and you have a decent income that enabled your buying that beautiful Sony camera. Your filming has become absolutely outstanding, the editing and drone footage all showing how highly skillful you are. Maddie, you are on solid ground and with time, will doubtless become greater. With much love and gratitude, ~Wendi 🌻
Lots of love ❤️
There are lots of nice vans that I’ve seen on CZcams but I think yours is one of the best. Not that the layout is so much different but your style of decor makes it so homey, cosy. Well it gives me a feel at home feeling anyway 😊.
This is amazing!
Lovely catching up. Thanks.
You are awesome the real life you bring to this keep going know you are awesome
I've just discovered your channel. Watching you makes soothing effect on me.
Love Newport. It’s one of my favorite coastal towns.
Wow! A new Sony camera! How awesome is that? I'm so jealous of you Maddie. Looking forward seeing videos and still pics using your new cam in the future. 📸
If your still in the area, search for agates in the creeks and at the beach. Lincoln city is know for the agates on the beach. There are some smaller beaches down some steep stairs that were loaded with gravel when I was there. It can be used for jewelry and crafting.
Love your painting 🎨🖌️
What!! You are unbelievably glamorous looking. Hope you have a great time!
I love your idea of a “quick breakfast”. Broccoli, carrots, bell pepper all mixed together in a stir fry with undisclosed yellow-ish goo drizzled in! My idea of a quick breakfast is a piece of toast! If I’m feeling particularly rakish, I might smear some honey on it!
That was great! The ease of getting alone time is a wicked benefit!
How one Human Being can touch another so deeply that I feel your pain and joy. I love the Videos where you are alone. I feel like we are best friends and I resonate deeply with what you say and do. Then in the dark that hug brought me to tears. The contrast is so beautiful.
It because you always have life lesson to share...love you and Eliza
What a beautiful drawing. I'm excited to see it completed. Though snakes are not in my favorites, I do appreciate your skill with a pen and colors. Busy days for sure with lots of chores. I'm eager to see your video with the Sony camera. Your friends are certainly special and enjoyable to watch you all enjoy such a warm friendship. Who taught you how to cook? Your mother? You've certainly mastered the fine art of culinary appeal. It makes me hungry. LOL. Take care and thanks for such wonderful videos.
What a darling ending 🥰
Congrat's on the new camera. Your M50 video is already amazing so I can't wait to see the new one. What lens do you use on your M50 to get such great images?
Another great video - need some more recipe videos from you again soon - what was the yellow coloured sauce that you poured over your breakfast stir fry?? Love and hugs to the gorgeous Eliza!! Xx
Sooo nice and relaxing your videos!🎉
Great video!
You're not alone - you've got Eliza. When I had my fur babies with me, I never felt alone. Animals are amazing companions. Maybe I just don't need the company of humans as much! :)
❤Maddie all I can say is that I am listening to your amazing and fantastic voice and that is it your voice is amazing and very heart felt to me and I am really enjoying it so thank you from the bottom of my heart ❣ love your family friend John from Australia prayers and thoughts for you xxx❤❤❤
U are awesome i love ur smile
First view
I love your van. I love your videos. I love your voice. I love your vision. I love your art. I love your lifestyle. If only I were in my 20s again. God bless.
Love the Oregon coast! Hey if you get a chance, get your Goonie’s on in Astoria if you haven’t already. I love that town. 😊
Everyone should own at minimum a portable propane instant hot water camp shower, you can even plumb it into the water line to your sink. It's affordable and works well.
Also the Sony A 7 lll is a nice camera, expensive but nice.
Maddie awesome video
Adaptability. It's so important in any lifestyle. Yeh? Thanks for sharing your life with us. You're an inspiration. Keep taking care of yourself and please stay positive. ~Sonny
It’s 02:00 in the uk. I’m watching this in anticipation of when I hit the road in my van tomorrow 😬
Eiiigh! So exciting. Good luck tomorrow! 🍀🤞
I don't know why yt recommended me this video...but i watched it and liked it so much...and i subscribed...nice video keep going and have wonderful journey ahead
one of your best...
This was a great video.... :)
Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Im hoping we as patron members will have an opportunity to pick another print from your next batch of drawings.
You sure will!! 🧡
one day i will travel like you. Thank you Maddie
My Oregon coast is magical.
Thanks!
Has me wondering what the hell have I been doing in my life. I started working at 16 and haven't stopped since from year to year. 34 years later, not much to show for it, and haven't achieved much either. Living in a van and enjoying the slow life is something very tempting for me.
@@verathings Thank you for the encouragement. Thats so great that you took the brave plunge and made it happen. May it be all that it seems to be for you.
Snakes are my biggest fear in life. They scare me so much, but something about the picture you drew and painted doesn’t scare me. 🥰
Maddie you are awesome just saw video with Niki and camper that was nice to invite them Aloha from Hawaii maybe you can do an episode van life Hawaii
Serenity and tranquility video
looking forward to buying a print of that snake
Adaptability. You win. :D Also, did you really just make that whole shushi?!
♥️♥️♥️
I had a paternal aunt who lived in Newport. She was married to the mayor. They're both long dead and buried there. I have not visited Newport since my aunt died and hope to visit her grave some day. My maternal grandparents, aunts and uncles are buried in Bend, where you ended the video.
Hello from New Mexico
❤
I live on the east coast and it is just after midnight. The counter says that you have had over 6,000 views in less than 24 hours. You are in the internet. Years from now people will be able to pull up your vids and say, "Wow, what a cool, hot chick,". Or the equivalent. You have a beautiful outlook on life.
Ya i think ill fine not showering as much when i get a van were i live (close to LA) i feel really dirty at the end of the day but when i go camping im fine for a week i think its the smog were i live that makes me feel so dirty. the main reason i want to do van life is because i hate living in the city i feel so trapped i just need to finish collage then im out of here
Loved it. "The greatest thing you've mastered."
Adaptability... Yes! A very important life skill to have hold of :) Have fun at the festival. PS: Are you and German Elsie (?) still in touch?
I love your pothos !
In four months I took 8 showers. Pwn is mostly cool and no humidity. You don’t sweat. No need for real showers.
👍👍génial😍😍
Cool ,Watching from sri lanka 😊🖤
Hi Maddie I love watching your videos and all the places you have gone to and I am wondering how many place in the world have you been to and you are a Beautiful Lady.
✌️😍😍😍😍artistic
most likely more caffeine in ur cup of matcha than a cup of coffee, but i still catch ur drift. no crash and no jitters for me either!
☺️👏☺️
How do you decide when to peel carrots and when not to?
ربي يبراك ماشاء الله 🇩🇿👍
