  • When we returned from Katmai National Park we venture onto the Kenai Peninsula for the first time in our travels in Alaska. We stop in the town of Whittier before heading to Homer, Alaska. While in Homer we meet up with some new friends for a trip across the inlet to see icebergs and incredible wildlife. We also find some ocean side camping that ends up being our favorite in all of Alaska.

    I'm stumped. You set the bar so high with last week's episode, yet this series keeps getting better and better. Beautiful. During the recent live Q&A you had said Lost & Found is a "proof of concept" for bigger sponsored projects in the future. If this series is proof of concept, then what was "A Summer adrift"? Was that you finding out for yourselves if that, i.e. longer series, is something *you'd* have an interest in doing?

    • @BoundForNowhere
      @BoundForNowhere  Před 2 lety +23

      This is a great question Theo, so thank you for that! I think that I'm wanting to do something"bigger" in the future with something like this series. Summer Adrift actually happened kind of on accident. We had the footage and realized, after the fact that we could make something out of it. This time, we knew we could make a series, but we wanted to push ourselves from a creative and quality standpoint. With Lost & Found it feels like our skill set is finally catching up with our ideas. If that makes sense. What I love about Lost & Found is that it dives into the ideas behind why people travel, and what that sparks inside of us. It's one thing to go to a beautiful place, but there is so much more that is happening to us as we explore and learn about the world around us. Those are ideas I want to explore on a larger scale.

    My wife and family will attest that the world shuts down for my "Alaska" shows. This series has become a part of that repertoire. The cinematography and narrative easily rival commercially produced shows. Have commented before and will probably continue to say that photos and videos are awe inspiring.
    I'm very surprised that you don't have a million or more subscribers, but on the other hand, I kinda like being a part of small group of folks watching this grow.
    Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more.

Chasing sunsets, mountains, beauty and awe…oh, and the cute furry ones spinning in the water. Connection to self, people, partners and the land are so emphasized when one is out there taking it all in experientially. I love this series. You two have an amazing gift. The Luna moment was tender and touching…sigh! Lastly, I so appreciate you taking a break.

    Maybe it would be better to name the episodes after the bigger picture of what you are doing, like “Alaska Road trip, heading into the mountains” instead of the more activity based focused titles “fishing in Hamlet Lake”. I assume a lot of people might find the first style of title interesting and tempting. This is a theory and feedback that comes from love of watching your great videos. Love from Denmark

    I am wondering did you all ever have any issues with bears coming near or close by to your truck and camper at all in Alaska? What would you do in that situation if it was trying to break in or something on account of smelling food? Just curious because I really hope to do this someday and this would be a worry of mine but from what I've seen it seems everything went just fine. Thanks for these videos they are so inspiring to me and I hope to meet you all on the road someday :) safe travels~!

    Video editing is great and love the flow the only reason I cant make it through the videos is the upwards and downward inflection of your voice. It's wildly irritating
