    Lefie, you need to do a new Q&A video. I have questions. Are you currently living in California? Are you working? Do you still get up at 4am? You have a roommate?
    I really enjoyed this series. As a Canadian it was fun to join you on your journey across America.

    America seems like a place with a gorgeous natural landscape but it's too bad the urban places really don't match. As an European, some of the places you drove through seem downright dystopian and out of a zombie movie. It sounds like it was an incredible trip and I enjoyed these videos a lot.

    Wow Lefie. Last year I drove from California to New York, and you put in thousands of times more thought into this trip than I did! I love how much detail you included, the stories you can share now, and the wonders you have seen. Going across the country is an amazing experience. Thank you for sharing this incredible series with us.

    The Georgia O'Keeffe museum is awesome--my friend and I also went there on that same road trip. AND I HAVE ALWAYS wanted to go to Meow Wolf--which obvs wasn't there 20 years ago. Dang, I feel like I should grab her and do this again!

    Thank you for sharing! Reminds me of my own time on the road. It's often hard to get the time and be at a place in your life to take a trip like this. When I finally did it, it felt like I finally scratched an itch I had my whole life. Hope your trip gives you similar peace and your videos inspire others to follow suit.

    So, um, I saw "(1/5)" when the first vid dropped,
    And decided to wait and watch the whole trip at once.
    As far as Lefie projects go, I don't think this will be topped
    For quite some time... probably at least a couple months. 👏 👏 👏
    I don't watch many travel vlogs,
    Nor do I travel much in-person,
    Yet I enjoyed getting to tag along
    This virtual cross-country excursion. 😊
    My favorite parts were the smile Lefie painted on the car 🙂
    And getting to see the reaction to the giant soda bottle. 😃
    Saying "Hot Balloon Festival" and not knowing much about Cars
    (The movie) were the parts I found to be the most 'awful'. 😅
    [It should've been "Hot-Air Balloon Festival", and the Cars Movie
    Is one I enjoyed very much growing up, so I say it's a must-see.]
    Thanks, Lefie, for sharing this trip with us! I enjoyed the full journey. 😁
    It somehow felt short, but putting so much footage together is not easy.
    Part of me wants to go back and write comments on each section...
    But I ought to get some sleep soon, so maybe another viewing session.

    I once stayed at the Wigwam Village No. 2 in Cave City, KY! I feel like that was a bit of a bucket list thing. We'd seen it on some travel show and wanted to do it. And now we've done it and we're good. Your room looked nicer than the one we got. lol
