Hunkering Down for a Snowstorm Inside a Cozy Homemade Truck Camper

Рет қаралды 536,076

Жыл бұрын

Come along for a snowy night of winter camping in Alaska and I'll show you why I'm right at home in the truck house. We'll do some of the daily chores living in truck camper, cook some dinner on the grill and enjoy the snowstorm rolling into the mountains in front of a cozy wood stove inside the cabin on wheels. Truck camping doesn't have to be difficult or uncomfortable...

It wouldn't be a Timmy video without cookies and a movie! With everything going on in the world right now, your videos are very soothing and calming. As a former actor I can appreciate all the setups your videos require, especially since you're alone. God Bless and Peace Out...

I believe he would tell you, there is stress involved in this way of life as well. Things do not go perfectly smoothly anywhere. He has a high degree of knowledge of engines and heat sources, how to repair things, and how to minimize parking hassles, etc. He makes it all look easy, when it's not.

@@jacquelinelynch4713 Oh no doubt, I have upmost respect for him, he has not sold his SOUL, like most other people have. So it would be an easy transition, because I would be their mentally and I have not sold my SOUL to a bank or to credit or to mortgages or to having children, etc. He knows where it is at and every one of us really should respect it. Well done him and others who have chosen this way to live. I mean I could run my business from something like this, in the middle of a woods somewhere, is how I see it.

Those cookies were an essential item. No matter what anyone says. Like having a post dinner treat. When backpacking I always bring a jar of Nutella. A spoonful (or two) always hit the spot.
