Last winter, while at the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous (RTR) in Quartzsite, AZ, I had the honor of being interviewed for āŖ@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.

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.

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 weāre 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. š
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...

Iāve 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, Iām 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 goāand Iād love your input. How would you like me to share them? (Answers are anonymous, so be HONEST!)
Thanks! šChristine

The amount of heartbreak and frustration going on behind the scenes for me with YouTube right now is unreal. Here is a screenshot on my actual āearningsā from YouTube shorts over the past 28-days.
Notice the negative!!! So, are they charging me to publish content?! Well, kindaā¦
Iāll have more to say on whatās going on soon, but in the meantimeā¦some nice people have recently donated to the channel via YT āThanksā. For the time being I want to discourage that, since we can clearly see they canāt be trusted with paying me.
If you want to help fund the adventures, here are some other options:

Hi! The next video in the Iceland series is a bit delayed (waiting for copyright clearance on music š ). It'll go live on September 1st!
In this next video, I'll share the cost of the van rental, gas, groceries, camping, and activities. I'll also share some of my cost-saving hacks in this expensive country.
If you have any specific questions, please leave them in the comments here so I can address them in a future video.
See ya soon!
