- Ethan and Emily visit Humboldt County, California, with stops at Eureka, Manila, and Arcata. Featuring beaches, dune flowers, redwoods, edible plants, colorful Victorian architecture, a Finnish bath house, and cooler problems.
I've lived near Redding but I have spent most of my life in Humboldt County. I completely get it about the weather change between the 2! Lol!
It is beautiful here, though! And I love how dog friendly most residents and businesses are dog friendly! My Hound and I spent a LOT of time on the beaches. He loved it! He lived to be 17. 🐾❤️🐾
One of the most magical places on earth ~
I love Arcata and McKinleyville I feel like they are more twin towns connected with valleywest. Arcata is such a unique little town all on it's own😊❤
Sunny brei too. I went to school up there. I feel like I left a piece of my heart that can never be recovered. When I go back every seven years it seems I feel complete. Like a child again
Glad you made it over to Humboldt County
Farmers Market is awesome! And it's usually Saturdays
Eureka and Arcata are hardly twin towns
One of the only affordable towns on the California coast! I guess it's like you said, it's very far from major cities & international airports.
Our daughter went to Humboldt State University and still lives there. We have been there many times. Whenever we go we see the Trees of Mystery and Ferndale. We live in SoCal so we take two days to get there. We do a overnighter in Clear Lake
thanks for the video I live here in Arcata and I love it especially the temp for the most part it about the same almost year around
Passed through Eureka last month and it was quite the pleasant surprise...the historic downtown was delightful... great bagels at Los Bagels, a real Zoltar at Eureka Books (great bookstore), cool murals galore and some gorgeous Victorian architecture.
Fun video! Thanks for crafting this!! If you come back check out King Salmon for snorkeling in the summer, just mind the tides etc. Also fishing off North Spit is great, just watch your step! I've lived in Eureka for over a year and honestly it's great and may be one of the most beautiful places on a sunny day. (it can feel a little scary on a dark gloomy day hahaha) Sometimes though the rain is so gentle and magical. Also Sequioa Park is incredible for all the trails and zoo. All the best!
The zoo? It was free when it was a decent attraction Now they charge to see about 10 different species and a petting zoo Why would you advertise this So ridiculous
amazing perspective of usa small towns, love from China
you probably got some killer tweak in Redding and that's why your so cold
The ice price spreadsheet bit was good stuff.
Very far from twin cities lol been here for 20 years lol also there’s a small airport in Mack you can fly n and out from !!
Live in Redding now and grew up in Eureka.
❤
there is an airport in McKinleyville, that connects to Medford, SFO ECT. your welcome in advance
Upstate California??
Northern California
Omg! I have a video of me playing with the ribbons. 😅😅
We have so Many microclimates in Humboldt
Beautiful. Do you rememeber how we can find that plant walk? Do they have a website?
It's on Airbnb experiences!
@@wildcl0ver Is it a website I searched and just got generic things.
What air bnb did u stay in?
It was a beach hut in Manila. Absolutely wonderful!
@@wildcl0ver sounds fun for a staycation for myself
@@wildcl0ver what was it called? interested to go
I BET COLD AND LOTS OF SNOW OVER THERE
Fix your english.
no snow
Woah woah woah... they are not 30 minutes apart 😂
10
Next time, try doing the reverse.
don't forget to stop at MR FISH
Twin towns 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Surprised you didn't meet some of the many homeless tweakers that like to hang around there. But that would have been too real......
lol, I just finished a road trip through the southwest, up through CA, ending in Oregon, and I did stop in Eureka, and the tweaker problem is no joke. I was looking for a oil change place, so I parked my car at the end of a street so I could look on my phone, and within about ten seconds, a tweaker came out of the bushes and started circumnavigating my car. It was weird.
Finally found an oil change place, and they wanted to charge me $130 for an oil change. Place was called "Down to Earth Automotive", w/ sky-high prices.
But anyway, they were everywhere. Everywhere you go, basically there's at least one tweaker in site. I didn't have the best impression of CA. Everything was stupid expensive and either really ritzy or really poor.
I've lived uo in Arcata for 11 years and it's 8 miles between Arcata and Eureka. To go to San Fransisco is about 4 hours. No way is it 6 hours.
4hrs to Ukiah from Arcata
Seriously? Are you kidding me right now.
Absolutely tweakerville

Eureka is a "quaint" version of any town. It is filled with mentally ill and or drugged individuals. We stayed in an expensive B&B and were serenaded all night by screaming crackheads and the sound of sirens. We won't go back, only drive through.
Eureka is a shithole. Nowhere to shop, nowhere to eat; boarded-up businesses everywhere; a massive drugged-out homeless population; when the liberals took over and the area became associated with latter-day hippies and marijuana, it took a nosedive fast, attracting bums and druggies from all over the country, and driving out people who wanted a decent place to live and raise their kids.
We always stayed in Fortuna, you can relax there
@@vickythevperson549the locals are weird there. They like to stare
You're not wrong One problem is NIMBYism They keep introducing strip malls with fast food joints, though It's not a great place to visit or live
As far as nature, it's a great place. It's also depressing and not a whole lot to do.
I BET BLUE STATE
Good
Unless something's changed or cadence dislike eurekins eurekins dislike arcadians
Good insight, their a far cry from being "twin cities"
That’s what I’m saying lol
Haats a gobery
I turn up the volume to listen to you voice and then you blow my headphones off with your ( music ? ) . 😢Don’t you ever listen to your videos before you post them ? 🤔
So sorry about that... The videos unfortunately sound completely different on every device. It's something I've also found quite frustrating because they'll be perfect on my phone but sound awful on a TV
