    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. I 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, I have a blast exploring Fort Bragg, California!

    Your videos are so uplifting and packed full of your positive energy. It really makes me happy to know that Chase got to experience such an epic adventure with you. You will cherish them for the rest of your days. And Chase is telling his amazing stories to all his buddies in his heavenly pack 🐾 You are an amazing young lady.❤TN Nana

    If you're going to do California Highway 1, you MUST start in Fort Bragg!! In my opinion....unless you don't like driving next to cliffs. I haven't been there since 1993, but it still looks mostly the same. We were only there a day, but it was fun to visit!! Looking forward to your next video!

    Truly one of the most epic scenic drives ever! Glass Beach was so amazing years ago. The smoother the edges, the longer it's likely been tossed around in the waves there. The tide pools were always awesome too with so many tiny creatures. Brought back fond memories while watching 🤗

    Hello Christine, I live here and was so happy to see your video. I get to walk on the Coastal Trail every day.. weather permitting. Thank you for not taking the Seaglass and pointing out the glass needs to stay on our beaches..It is frustrating seeing people take it . This is an amazing place to call home with a wonderful community..I love living amongst the redwoods and enjoying our Pacific Ocean. You forgot to drink our local Thanksgiving coffee and check out the Coast Cinemas.. Please come back because there is so much more to Fort Bragg..Thanks for the beautiful video..Enjoy your adventures and drive safe..🤩⭐️🐳🦀

    California seems like a wonderful place to visit! Are all the prices there outlandish, though?? Glad you had a great time there!

    Absolutely loved this video exploring Northern California! Your vlogs just keep getting better and better, and it's so clear that you've become more comfortable in front of the camera. It's a joy to watch your journey unfold! The landscapes were breathtaking, and I can't help but wonder if California might become your home one day? Also, that omelette you had looked absolutely amazing-major food envy happening here! Can't wait for your next adventure. 🌟

    So wonderful seeing dear Chase enjoy his treat so much, how thoughtful of you, you could see how much he enjoyed it and all of the smells and getting out and around there, I’m sure that stimulated him and helped him. 🌹♥💔🫂You’re doing great, it’s going to be okay, sending a huge hug.
    Loved seeing this area and Glass Beach. Reminds me of the rounded glass pieces I used to pick up on the beaches at Lexington, MI, thanks for reminding me, I still can hear the fog horns there on the rainy days, and you’re right, it’s an absolutely wonderful place to be, glass beach, nothing else like it. You are an amazing storyteller with such beautiful cinematography. Kindest regards.

    The California Coast is my all time favorite place for exploring.
    HWY 1, Santa Cruz, Stinson Beach, Fort Bragg etc. The weather, views, sounds of waves crashing… nothing beats it.Plenty of free overnight parking places too.

    Wow, I love the idea that no matter how awful people are, the Earth will eventually clean up after them. Whether we are here as a species when it does is a whole different story, though. The glass beach was so interesting and cool.
    That crab was totally judging you. He knew what you ate that morning.
    So much fun watching you and Chase have a good time. I want to go there so bad. One day, I will. Looking forward to more of your adventures.

    Well, you can splurge once in a while on a great meal, you're staying in your car. Crab omelet, Chase says, 'what was that, are there any seconds ?!' Glass beach looks like a location for prime abalone diving. Next time, try the Abalone for dinner. And it seems like you can park your car overnight just about anywhere, its stealth looking 'plain'....take care and travel on !!

    If you would take just study to be an echo tech for 1-2 years you could take "travel" assignments which typically last 13 weeks and pay a rate of around $150,000/yr.
    I currently do a very similar job as a full time employee for about 100k, but I've considered the travel/van life as a way to gain freedom and free time. You might find it's a much more efficient use of your time/skills.
    If you don't like the idea of being an echo tech there are tons of other professional healthcare jobs that pay a premium for travel workers.

    Are you ever going to do an about me video? I’ve watched you from the very beginning and all I remember from past videos (I think) you are from Michigan. You don’t have to give a lot of info but learning about you makes the videos more personable.

      Hello, I mentioned in my video about "Saying Goodbye to Chase" that I post most of my videos with a time delay (for safety reasons) so several of the videos we had already filmed would post over the next coming weeks. There are a couple more videos with him in it. I will post a memorial video for him on 2/7/24. After that, the videos will only have myself in them. Thank you for caring 🙏🏼💫

    almost done watching, but yea I wanna just say sure would be sweet if you were vegan. it's important that highly positive and entertaining/attractive people like you go vegan and join the cause. it's not right to continue to not be vegan, so we vegans all hope you'll join us and set a good example, so as to lessen chaos/wickedness/and evil on my planet. so please, look into the worth of how we don't need animal products to survive or thrive; as even a medium old dog can learn new tricks! ;). also, I loved collecting those smoothed glass pieces on ghe shore of port huron, MI, where I grew up in the summers and used to live. odd that there's a rule not to take any there, I say take it....there's way go much! it's supposed to be special when you find one, and sharp ones sbould be cast back to sea. back to the video; please be vegan Christine, your dog Chase would admire your decision upon learning how very similar he was to pigs/cows/chickens, etc.
