  • Hi! I’m Christine 🙋🏼‍♀️ After working for many years in sales and business ownership, I felt major burnout 😵‍💫 I sold my houses, extra cars, and most of my belongings. Now I'm happier than ever having very few material things. I travel living out of my vehicle with my old and blind best friend, Chase the Dog 🐶 We roam the USA looking for adventure, food, and fun! I'm never sure what the future holds. Join the adventure and find out with me! 🤩
    In this video, we follow the path of the Oregon Trail to the beautiful Scotts Bluff!

    Really love that you've always taken the time to go see and show a lot of things other Car Dwellers/Van Lifers don't. Most of them just hit the heavy spots out West. You've gone south, east, midwest, and now finally west. I've always thought the west side of Kansas/Nebraska/South Dakota were kind of semi-hidden gems. Nobody there, yet very pretty. If you keep heading west I truly look forward to seeing your excitement for what you're about to see in person. Great job!

    Hi Christine! You saw some really nice things. I took a trip out west once, starting in Iowa. The farther west you get, the bigger the hills till finally there are mountains. You say you’re a little anxious being out of your comfort zone, but I think that if anyone can handle it, you can. You seem to be a pretty strong person. Have a great time!

    For a place "without much to do", you got a LOT done! Awesome Sunrise and Sunsets! I've driven across the US several times now between vacations and relocations. Each trip was different with lots of cool memories like "oooh, I'll stop over there". Got hundreds or even thousands of pics from those trips too, many of which were before digital cameras/cellphones. Until your next video!! Drive safe!!
