In our quest for seeking out a more healthy and sustainable lifestyle, we made a plan that includes zero waste living, tiny home living and full-time travel. We considered buying an RV, looked at trailers and airstreams but settled on doing a bus conversion for our off-the-grid, tiny house on wheels. We bought a 1996 MCI 102 D3 coach bus and with the Bus Demolition and Interior Shell complete, we turned it into our Tiny Home on Wheels and are now traveling!

That's a beautiful area. We stayed in that area when we did our RV tour of the western US a few years back. The beaches and weather temperature were a bit of a shock for a couple of Australians. We weren't used to a summer that's not constantly 95F each day. You've captured the visit incredibly. Always look forward to your videos. Stay safe, folks. Best wishes from Tamborine Queensland.

My house is right up the hill from Turtle Rock. Thank you so much for coming to our beautiful small town! I feel like one of the luckiest people in the world to be able to call Gold Beach home. The beach there is ALWAYS windy. Although in early September the wind subsides and it’s actually pretty warm. If you go up river a bit you also come away from the wind and it warms up a lot. It looks like you had an amazing time! Come back again soon.

Thank you for the fun video. I live just south of Gold Beach in Brookings where it’s less windy and usually a bit warmer, if anyone is planning a trip to the Oregon coast. We have a great state park system here in Oregon and one the best campgrounds is right here in Brookings called Harris Beach SP. It’s not as swanky as Turtle Rock but “A”loop has fantastic ocean views of the Pacific Ocean and full hook-ups at half the price. The sites are back in but long with paved pads. It is usually full in the summer months so be sure to plan ahead and get reservations if you want to visit that time of year. As someone else mentioned the fall months here get some of the best weather and campgrounds are not packed. There are many other great State Parks on the Oregon coast and it’s a fantastic way to explore our beautiful coastline.

Hi Mela and Don. I loved seeing the rugged coastline and the nature walks with the amazing view. The park you stayed in the best was the 3rd one with the river view. Your cats seemed to like it too.

Looks so beautiful there. Here’s a tip I learned in Scouts, keep a bar of Fels Napha soap on hand for those times you get a little to close to poison oak/ivy. You can find it by the laundry soap, as it’s a detergent. Wash with it and use Cortizone cream and you should be good to go. -Trixie.the.Skoolie

maibe use the bus as a homebase , and move it less often and to a cental place of wat you want to see then use either a smaller vehicle to explore in a circle around the bus / homebase , should save you on some of the fuelcosts and places to actually park the big bus

I absolutely love watching your adventures and I love how excited you are to be exploring your surroundings- keep enjoying your journey- ps. Mel I also don’t eat tortillas with my fajitas- also when you get back from hiking wash with Dawn Dish Soap- it is just another amazing thing that Dawn is used for…

When you guys get near Astoria, Oregon be sure to look up all the movie locations like the Goonies house and beach (Cannon Beach) etc. One of my favorite and most memorable locations I visited while I was passing though that area. Enjoy!

Niiiiice! I wanted to comment on the special email you sent me but for some reason my keyboard wouldn’t pop up. Poop! Can’t remember what I wanted to say now, but I’m glad I got to see this again. What a great campground! And Don, you’re getting good at driving that big rig. 😊

Hope your plans include the Oregon Dunes and you take dune buggy rides. Then be sure to hit Sea lion cave outside Florence. So sorry you won’t be criss crossing the state, you will miss a lot. River jet boating, Oregon caves, out n about tree resort, rogue River origin, crater lake, McKenzie River area, Bend in central Oregon, Klamath lake, mt hood lakes and forests, thunder eggs in eastern Oregon, Prineville reservoir and the painted hills, so much!!!

We’ll definitely go inland in Oregon another time. For various reasons we needed to pick one or the other for this year and we have been inland for so long that the coast won this years vote!

Mela I thought you guys were Vegans?

@Rehabit8 Жыл бұрын

No not vegan but we do eat a lot of meatless home cooked meals. I have a lot of food intolerances and Don has to avoid many veggies, nuts and soy/tofu because they are high in oxalates which give him kidney stones. So between the 2 of us becoming vegan was too challenging with our food restrictions , it didn’t work for our bodies.
