I'm Christine, the creator behind Nomad Unknown. I’m exploring what it looks like to build a meaningful life outside the traditional path—through slow travel, outdoor adventure, simple living, and a whole lot of figuring things out along the way.
From living and traveling in my Subaru Forester to long-distance backpacking, off-grid camping, and exploring the places in between, my goal is to show that adventure doesn't have to be extreme, expensive, or reserved for someone else.
At the heart of this channel is a bigger question: **What kind of life do I actually want to build?**
I'm learning to prioritize health and well-being, travel more slowly, create stability in unconventional ways, and make intentional choices about the future—all while continuing to seek out beautiful places and meaningful adventures.
If you're dreaming about doing life a little differently, you're in the right place.

Hi everyone! I'm working fervently to get you a video! I'm currently editing a stunner 🤩. However, now that I also have a *real* job, I'm limited to editing before and after work; so I'm lagging a bit while I adjust to the new schedule.
Every day, I'm reminding myself that I can keep up with the current demands on my time and energy, and it'll be worth it in the end. Envisioning a day when I'm back on the road... in a van. That last statement wasn't an announcement; it was a glimpse into my mindset during this time, which is feeling quite difficult.
I look forward to sharing this journey with you throughout the months to come.
See you soon!
Christine

Last winter, while at the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous (RTR) in Quartzsite, AZ, I had the honor of being interviewed for @CheapRVliving . Brian allowed me to showcase my Subaru Forester No-Build Car Camper setup, and he asked excellent questions about my nomadic journey. I'd encourage you to go watch!
For my keen-eyed viewers, I'd love it if you could point out some of the key changes I've made between then and now. Because, boy! It feels like A LOT has changed.

Join me in the live chat at 3pm EST on October 10th! I'll be premiering my video documenting my solo trip to the French Alps!
I'd love to explore more of this area, but my week-long trip to Chamonix was my second trip there, and it's one of my MOST favorite places EVER.
I hope to see you in the chat! 💙

Good ole fashioned camp & cook in the woods of Montana… plus, a takeaway from the past year living in my car. Grab a warm beverage and your autumnal flannels, cause we’re getting cozy!

The majority has spoken! Thank you to those of you that participated in the recent survey. Here's the plan...
I'm going to publicly release the remaining videos from my Europe series. I had some wonderful experiences in Italy and visited one of my favorite places in the world (Chamonix, France) and I want to share those places with you. Intermittently, I will also be sharing some US carlife content. I know this is unconventional, but I have faith that ya'll won't get too confused. 😁
In today's video, I share some thoughts that came to mind after my recent vanlife journey in Iceland. Thoughts that presented themselves as an unwelcomed contrast after moving back into the Subie. Check it out to see how that short little trip has inpacted my future...

I’ve been looking at viewer behavior, and it seems like a lot of you are more excited about the car life content than the international travel videos. With that in mind, I’m moving up my timeline and will start sharing more domestic car life videos soon to give you the content you subscribed for. That said, I still have a batch of Europe videos ready to go—and I’d love your input. How would you like me to share them? (Answers are anonymous, so be HONEST!)
Thanks! 💙Christine
