This is such a sentimental time of the year for so many of us as we reflect on 2022 coming to a close. Last month we also celebrated one year of traveling full time with our @aluminumtoyhauler, and decided to put together a compilation of video clips set to music with no voice narration. It's basically a 3 minute travel diary filled with scenery from all over the US, wildlife, other animals, and more. It's set to premiere this evening at 8pm ET/7pm CT/6pm MT/5pm PT and I'd love to see you there! Get notified when it's time to watch right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_fw8...

"Where do your cats eat in your RV? It's such a small space?"
That's a great question and one we get asked frequently. I wanted a low traffic area for them inside our @aluminumtoyhauler so they could relax while eating and so we wouldn't knock over their food and water.
We ended up deciding to place their bowls underneath the dinette table on top of the aluminum wheel well. This gives the bowls some extra height for better kitty ergonomics, and they stay out of our way. The cats appreciate not getting tripped over during meal time too.

Greetings from the future!
We are currently in Wyoming and boy do I have a bunch to share with you. If only I could edit as fast as I film. I am currently working on a series about what it's like to visit this area (especially with an RV) as well as what it's like to work and live here. I've got a ton of inside scoop to share with you and tips to help prepare you before you get here. Spoiler alert: Phone service and mobile data signals are scarce at our location.
Before I get to all things Wyoming, I will be sharing some very real struggles we've had with RV life---things you may want to consider or reconsider whether you are planning to embark on a journey of full or part time RV living. Of course I will also share some beautiful (and many free) points of interest along the way---from Arizona eastward.
As I've mentioned before, my videos are typically about 3 months behind real time. If you want a more abbreviated glimpse of our travels in more of a real time, I highly recommend following @GeographicallyFree on Instagram. www.instagram.com/geographica...
Photo is me at Grand Teton National Park the other day hoping to have a (distant) wildlife spotting. We've taken our cat Penelope here twice already and she loved it!

Who else is trying to beat the heat right now?
It seems like everywhere we end up, there are heat advisories or higher than normal temps. I made a video sharing 8 of the ways we are staying cool while traveling in our ATC toy hauler with our two cats, and this small yet mighty fan has been one my favorite purchases this year. It's USB chargeable, has 3 settings, stores away easily in my bedside drawer, and is super affordable.
Whether you are RV-ing, van-lifing, car camping or staycationing, you may find some of our tips helpful. You can learn more about this fan and the other seven ways we are staying cool this summer in our RV right here: youtube.com/watch?v=u8B2F...
This is the exact fan we got from Walmart. You can find it in stores, or online (affiliate link):

For over a week now I've been working on a video for you that includes several tips on how we stay cool in our ATC Toy Hauler with the cats on those really hot days (with and without AC). I thought today might be the day I finally get to share it with you and then my four year old @Apple MacBook dies. After hours of troubleshooting I start thinking, okay worst case scenario is I need to buy a new one so I start searching for the nearest store just in case. Mind you, we are camping off grid in the middle of nowhere and the only Best Buy is actually a pharmacy. Whaaaaat????!! 😂
Please pray for a miraculous resurrection of my laptop! 🙏 And if you enjoy #shorts content, be on the lookout for some fun updates from my Android phone.

Holy guacamole! My aunt Debbie is about to spend THE REST OF HER RETIREMENT YEARS on a CRUISE SHIP!!! Can you believe it???? This is after seven years of RV life! It looks like the idea of living @GeographicallyFree runs in the family. In fact, she recently reached out to me and asked if I could teach her more about YouTube so she can share her experience with others on how this alternative lifestyle can be achieved AFFORDABLY. If that sounds fascinating to you, subscribe to her channel, "Deb Travels The World". Here is her first video talking about her WHY and what her life looked like before this:

The photos below are from my one and only cruise experience in 2017. I had never had a desire to cruise but this one was a gift (with an ocean view balcony) and we ended up having the most AMAZING time. We'll, except for the part where we had to leave our kitties behind because they weren't allowed.

Do you have a pet that's afraid of fireworks? If so, please watch my video on how to calm a nervous cat ASAP. It's a real life example of how certain types of music can help our fur babes reduce stress. And once you're done with that, there's a new upload from @HarpWellness that was created specifically for your pets that you can save to play during those nights of rogue neighborhood booms or scheduled fireworks. Of course it can be helpful for anxious humans too.
Both are linked below:

Whoever you are, THANK YOU! ❤❤❤
I just noticed that we received our very first SuperThanks last week since YouTube unlocked the feature on this channel. @GeographicallyFree is not only a creative outlet and labor of love for me, but I spend several hours each day filming/editing/scripting videos for this channel that I hope will help someone in some way, or at least make their day a little brighter. I do not expect this type of generosity but it is appreciated and gets reinvested into the creation of more videos, so I wanted to express my gratitude. I know not everyone can do that. Just know that you are also supporting this channel in other ways when you watch videos, leave comments, press that like button (or even the dislike button) and share with your friends and family.
Phoenix, P, David and I appreciate ALL of you.

If you could spend the entire summer camping in one part of the United States mainland, where would it be? Let me know WHY in the comments too, or what your choice is if I didn't list it.

Something happened with our cat Phoenix during today's leg of road travel that I feel is significant enough to share with you, and may help if you have a nervous cat (or even a dog or person).
I have a desert camping video I was in the midst of editing but that's going to have to wait. Next upload will center around an important and simple, yet overlooked tool for calming a stressed cat. I hope to have it complete within the next few days so be on the lookout if it's of relevance to you.
I know he doesn't look nervous in this photo but he does have the occasional moment.
