(real clickable links coming soon. thank you for being patient with us as we learn to navigate CZcams)
Great first video! I totally get it that finding a new state, city, home and nothing clicked. We are in our sixties and still nomads, traveling and living in all 50 states. We are in South America now, it is great. Good luck and safe travels.
That is so awesome. Whereabouts in South America are you? We would love any tips tricks or recommendations you have.
It's Peter..... Ushuaia
Is pronounced only one way. Ooh-Swy-UH! Love you both. Peter❤❤❤❤
Lol it’s a hard one to pronounce for sure!! We love you too Peter. Glad you’re here.❤️
Totally agree with you. CA was ridiculous. We left too! Good Luck on your travels!!!!
Thank you! Cali gets worse every day. The smart people realize that it’s easier to leave than change it.
Left Commifornia, Welcome to CZcams, just subscribed, liked, and commented 👍
Thank you for the warm welcome. It’s so nice when people want to leave comments for us.
That's crazy cool that you have over a 1000 views on your very first video in 6 days. I think you're on to something here. Looking forward to more.
Thank you for the nice words, Kimberly that means a lot. The pressure is on now!! We hope we don’t disappoint.
You guys!!! Congrats on busting into CZcams in a big way! Respect 🙏 Great video.
I just finished a 6 month road trip from Canada to Belize and it was awesome; definitely gave me the nomadic itch! Happy travels.
Thank you, Nancy. We are putting in the work to try to make these videos the best we can. Looking forward to checking out some of your Mexico and Belize videos. So we are sure not to miss anything. Safe travels. ❤️
Good luck you two and I will follow your adventures ..... Blessings Bob
Thank you, Bob. We appreciate you following along.
*_Just found your channel and this is a great concept with a nice intro video. I lived in Los Angeles during 2020, which is why I moved to Texas. I totally get moving out of there and I worry all the time about my Family & Friends still living there. Looking forward following this journey, safe travels!_*
Thank you for the kind words. After spending a lot of time in California it is hard to watch its rapid decline with no real hope that it will get better. The easiest and smartest thing is to get out! We’re glad you are here.
Hey Jason it’s Wayne. Cruz just sent me the link to watch your videos. My wife and I watched all the episodes. They are great. Can’t wait for the next one. Safe travels.
Hey Wayne, thank you we put this channel together to share our travels with our family and friends and whoever else was interested in following along.
Love seeing y’all on youtube! Keep it coming ❤

Exciting! - the blue bus vintage
Hey Luke, thank you for the continued support. We have missed staying in touch since we’ve been away from Instagram.
Finally! It’s about time. Great job. ❤
Thank you! We wish we would’ve done this years ago.
This is a really good first video.
Thank you we’re trying our hardest!❤️
Great adventure!!! Enjoy and do be careful in those regions.
Thanks, Julia we are sure to be careful everywhere we travel.
We’re loving it! Jason is so funny. You’re both so witty! Can’t wait to follow you guys! Safe travels 😘
Thank you for the kind words.❤ This is going to be an adventure of a lifetime.

Hey Gene, thank you so much! We are excited to share the adventure with you. Give Doug some love for us.❤️
Good luck guys. I will follow you all the way.
Thank you, Mike. We might need a little bit of luck somewhere along this journey.
Yay! So excited for you guys and happy to see you both. We’ve been wanting to drive the PanAm for years so we are so excited to follow your journey! Safe travels -Ashleigh + Grayson
Hey Ashleigh and Grayson thank you for showing your support! We have also talked about doing the Pan-American highway for a long time and figured there is no better time than now. It feels intimidating until you jump in and go for it. Hopefully we will be able to provide some information and entertainment for everyone. Stay safe!❤️
OK... I'll bite. Subbing to see where this goes.
Thank you hopefully we don’t disappoint.
Nice first video. Good luck with your journey, I'll be following your adventure from across the pond
Thank you, Mr. hot snakes we love your name. Glad to see our videos are reaching beyond the US.
This will be a lot better than the other platforms. Can’t wait to see all your adventures!!
Thank you, Jamie. We are glad we made the switch. We are super excited to share all of our adventures here!
I can’t wait for a rig tour video!
Thank you, Amanda for showing support to our CZcams channel it means a lot to us. Our new rig is so much different than our old one!
Well, you two are adorable and I already love your approach to travel. New subscriber here! Can't wait to join your journey.
Thank you, Angela. That’s really nice of you to say. We appreciate your support and look forward to sharing our travels with you.
Just had to throw that cummins 4x4 in there! Cant believe were going t have t wait 2 years to see Scotty again.
I know we miss her already too. She is safe and sound patiently waiting for the next adventure. This rig option makes sense for so many reasons.
I love fresh and new, and wonder. I just subscribed and will now binge watch your channel. I didn't have a youtube channel in the 70's? I dreamed of doing what you all are doing. I did a little wondering in Europe with a pretty blonde but then life got in the way. The Blonde? Well she wondered off of course.
We wish there were more videos for you to binge watch but we just started documenting the journey. We toyed with the idea of this trip as we traveled around the US. Then one day we realized there’s no better time than now so here we are on our way. And I have that same fear with this blonde.
Enjoyed your first video, we look forward to following you. We started out our journey for our friends and family too, its a great way to keep everyone posted. Safe travels and we will def follow your journey xxx
Thank you for coming along for the ride. We look forward to sharing more with everyone.
@@BarelySqueakinBy Maybe one day you can come visit our beautiful island xxx
@@pausethemoment222 thanks guys for the invite that sounds amazing! We watched your catamaran video. It looks so beautiful there. We nearly bought a boat four years ago to sail around the world, but Covid changed our plans.
@BarelySqueakinBy Thanks for watching our video. That is our long term goal now that both our boys are finished school. Goals maybe one day who knows this island just begs for a boat lol. Yes Covid did change everyone's plans. Keep well and safe travels xxx
Oo-swy-ah...swy like fly. So this looks fun, i think I'll follow along because , no i wouldn't do it, lol. Safe travels.
Thank you, Jane for joining our adventure. We have noticed from talking to people that it seems to be an equal split of the people that would do the trip and those that would not.
Pleased to meet you!
Hey Graham, thank you for joining our journey.
Let's Do This!
Thank you for the encouragement, Fred
Do it!
We are 100% committed to make it all the way to the finish line.
Love travel CZcamsrs, so why not. I'll see where this takes us. As far as traveling to Argentina, I've seen a few try, I would just say research, research, research...and reach out to people that have done it before for advice and tips. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you, for the great advice Leonard we appreciate you subscribing to our CZcams channel. We are excited to see where this journey takes us. We can’t wait to share it with you. We have done a fair amount of research and we also have some friends that just completed the trip.
Hi It’s Courtney!! So so happy to see my favorite people again!🩷🩷🩷
Hey Courtney great to hear from you thank you so much for supporting our channel! ❤️ This next adventure should be exciting. Definitely pulling us out of our comfort zone.
I don't think you're crazy at all. I worked with this guy who recently completed his trek across Canada from Toronto. He went west, then to the Arctic Circle, back to Ontario then through Quebec to the east coast. He documented this on instagram, which I followed. I would have followed his journey if he posted here on CZcams but he didn't choose this platform.
Not sure his next trip, but I've heard it will be similar to your journey.
I watch a lot of travel and road trip vlogs, and your's is really good, not just for a first one.
Safe travels!
Thank you Scott, for all the kind words. We were documenting our travels all through the US up through British Columbia and Alaska on Instagram, but ultimately decided to make the switch to CZcams so that we can make the adventure really come to life.
Uhhh-Sch-Y-ah is my best written pronunciation what you’re trying to say😂 Great Job Y’all! Can’t wait to watch your journey
Ha ha, you did great. I knew exactly what you were saying. I had to look it up. It’s going to be interesting. Wait till you see our rig.😳🇲🇽
@@BarelySqueakinBy I’m excited!!!
Hey it’s Luke and Gavin here! We’re both so excited to see your guys journey!
Hey Luke and Gavin, thank you for showing support to our channel. It means a lot to us! We are so glad you’re going to come on this journey with us.
BIG REVEAL
Ha ha big reveal! It’s a lot different than our other rig. Thanks for showing the love Dalton. We appreciate you.❤️
this sounds amazing!!! so this is funded totally through renting your home?? I would love to do something similar.
Actually, it is not fully funded by us renting our house, but that does help a little bit. We are taking a risk and trying to do this trip as cheap as possible.
Wow, how did you get over 2,750 views already? On your FIRST video? 🙌
We’re asking ourselves the same question I guess we just got lucky.
South and Central America will be completely empty soon. Everyone from there jumped on the Brandon Express to the US.
That is hilarious and so true. I was amazed to find out that migrants are coming across the Mexico border from 100 different countries around the world.
That girl really loves you. You can see it by the way she looks at you. dnt fck it up
I really lucked out when I got to marry her! Quality girls like her are nearly impossible to find these days. I feel so fortunate that I get to call her my better half.
@@BarelySqueakinBy Sorry brother, My 5am self has no filter. But I do get it,, I am a lucky guy myself
@@gatorsaw3315 No apology needed! I would rather someone be unfiltered and real than filtered and fake. You recognize that she’s a great woman because you have one already at home.
@@gatorsaw3315 Honestly your comment was the best one I’ve gotten so far on CZcams!
@@BarelySqueakinBy Very nice,, I am stuck at home today taking care of my little dog who may not make it. He is very sick, Prayers appreciated
Wow, how's the español!?
Well, some days it’s better than others and some days it’s worse.
I'm 114. 😂😂
Hi there, MrMichaelScott number 114 that’s awesome. Welcome to the party.🎉
Hope all goes well . But since you asked ……absolutely no ,I would not go south of the border .
Thank you, for wishing us well Kelly. We understand it’s not for everybody.❤️
hello new subscriber.. good luck on your new venture i'm pretty sure you will do excide... you make a great couple.. word of advise.. keep it real.. ; )
Thank you for the compliment Ernesto. We also appreciate the advice.
Who else is here to see if they get kidnapped by the Mexican cartel! 🙋🏻♂️. Lol sorry not sorry! I wish you safe travels and I will follow along but I do think your nuts. There is no way I would take the chance going down there all alone with my beautiful wife. I wish you guys all the best tho. And safe travels!
Ha ha that’s hilarious! It’s not as bad as the network news makes it out to be. Maybe we are a slight bit nuts, but that’s true living. The ironic part is that it was my beautiful wife that wanted to do this trip so bad.
