Crystal's laughter should be taped and sold to raise anyone's spirit's. XXX

I would personally love more adventure content from you guys. I first followed for the recipes and vegan content, but I’ve grown to become very fond of you two. I’m envious of your relationship and the way you two laugh at each other’s jokes. But also the way you two are able to laugh at one another with one another. You two continue to bring positivity and joy into our lives through every video! I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one that feels this way as well!

This is proberly my fave video of yours derek! Absolutely loved it! Please please make more videos like this! Camping and healthy eating are like my fave things! Enjoyed this one so much. Plus, this is like goals for me and my partner.

Wish this video had been longer... Reminds me that there's lots of good stuff out there. Beyond social media, corrupt politicians, and people being awful, there's nature and beauty. And, there's good food. 😊

I agree with so many other comments here. This is a really fun format! Adventures + Plant-Based Food?! Can’t beat it! 🤩

You guys have had some great videos, but, by far this one is the best!! Would enjoy more like these!!!

Well this is impeccable timing. I'm literally about to leave on a camping trip!

Hoorah at last, both of you out and about. What a wonderful place you live in, most people do not have anything like it, if i had what you have i would be camping all the time. I can't imagine why you stopped doing ask me mondays out and about but this reminds me of that which is great.You are so, and i mean SO lucky to live where you do,the fact that you are even allowed to camp out where ever you like alone is amazing in its self....love you both,lets have more out and about for sure xxx 💚💚💚

Simnett Nutrition ft. camping, the collab we’ve all been waiting for ✨

Derek and Crystal eat nicer looking campsite meals than I do at home 😂

Holy cow this is awesome. When you said it's time to end the vlog, I thought, what! It just started. But it's already 20 minutes in 😅 It went way too quickly. Loved it . Thanks Derek and Crystal for such an enjoyable video. ❤❤

I love that you two explore nature as well as being rock star recipe makers! Thanks for sharing. I miss the Pacific North West. Washington state native and never made it to Vancouver Island 😢

Thanks for sharing! I love to see Crystal and would enjoy seeing more of your adventures 🌲 Love the car camping set up!

Love this video, I'm half Canadian and haven't been to my other home in nearly a decade. I hate what the politicians have done but this video just captures the beauty of the nature and the energy there. Made me really miss it for the first time in years... I shall return soon. Thank you Derek.

Yes - more of these would be great. I love seeing the scenery in that part of the world.❤

I'm glad you're getting into camping content. I recall live streams last year where we were asking you about doing it! So cool. Camping in a hard-sided vehicle in that environment is also much safer to protect you against widow-makers. (dead limbs from trees that could break off and fall on your tent at night)

I love that the comment section is unanimous on how awesome this video was! You two are so cute together, and the way you laugh with each other is just so delightful to witness. As a non-Canadian, this is the epitome of the Canadian friendliness that we imagine from abroad 😆

What a great video, beautiful beach, cardboard templates for the car - funny 😁You guys are so cool and so down to earth and so entertaining, you always put a smile on my face, thank you!!!❤ And yes, definitely more videos like this please!

Plant based + camping = the best life.

My goodness there's so much beauty to be found in this wonderous world, isn't there? Thanks for sharing this slice of northern Vancouver Island. I'm in Vancouver and while I've done a lot of cycle-camping up the Sunshine Coast and around the Gulf islands I haven't explored the island. This is one your best videos. Thanks!

Loved this! You two do some great things together and I love seeing your beautiful country. Yes to more adventures 😍

That bag of popcorn while Crystal was holding it🤣San Josef is still on my list of places to see on the Island, absolutely gorgeous. I always love your videos Derek, I believe 90% of my meals come from your videos. Thank you for everything that you two do! Cheers!

I agree this is one of my favorite videos of yours. I love seeing you two enjoying the PNW, each other, and yummy food! More please!

Yes, YEs, YES! To more adventures and what you eat. My dream is to love in BC or Vancouver Isle so for now, I love watching your jaunts and so fun to see you and Crystal having fun and laughing! I car camp a lot and if you start to do it a lot, get a power station - life changing - and mark each window covering w the window it fits in. I use the silver insulation cut to fit, just a teeny tiny bit bigger so it sits in the window tightly. The woods where you awoke, STELLAR!!! Thanks for sharing!

What a wholesome video! Thankyou for taking us along ❤

I've been away from the island for 4yrs and I miss it every day. Thanks for making this video and the reminder of the beauty of the wild areas.

I've watched so many of your videos now that I feel like I'm watching the adventures of fun and amiable friends. I'm sure needing to record so much of your experiences for the videos might get old or burdensome (as opposed to just experiencing it), but it really is well-produced and uplifting content. Thanks for sharing your lives outside the kitchen and the gym.

Yes I would love to see more of the beauty where you are. I’d loved seeing the sea creatures and awesome forests. Your food could feed the would and Crystal’s laughter could bring world peace. 🥰😘😍

Awesome video, we love seeing how you eat when you are out being active.

We lived in Comox for three years, and now we are back in the prairies. I love aspects of living here too (fantastic sunrises and sunsets, amongst other things) but I do miss and love the island. Thanks for this. Absolutely happy for more adventure content.

What an incredibly interesting video this was watching you and Crystal on your camping journey to such a beautiful place. I really loved the music you chose in your video throughout as well. Excellent vlog!

Yes more adventures!! Loved it!!❤❤❤

Love, love, love this video. Thanks for sharing, want more please.

Loved the video. Vancouver Island is beautiful

That was amazing! Thank you for sharing 😊

I love travel/site seeing videos. Do more when you can!

Long time sleeper follower here (never forget to leave a like though :) ) and your adventure/nature content is my favorite! Your mentality is infectious, and always leaves me in a happy mood! Thanks for the years of great content Derek and Crystal!

Such a joy to watch. You both have such genuine appreciation for nature and pure excitement at seeing new things. Like watching a child open a Christmas gift. Stay safe and continue with life's adventures.

Gorgeous scenery! It reminds me of several different areas I’ve been to in several different states and countries all in one area! Love the simple set up in the Rav! I’ve only been to BC once decades back. It was a macrobiotic gathering in a cool farm in Fernie, across from Whitefish Bay in Montana. Did some hiking one of the days. It stayed cool amidst those tall trees! Keep the adventures coming. We all love to live vicariously through your videos! ~ Tracy

Thanks for the beautiful scenery ❤

Oo fun road trip vlog. I love seeing your adventures.🌱 Peanut butter on s'mores 😮😋 great idea

A bunch of us should go next time!!

You two laughing and having fun are so uplifting! Loved this vid, thanks. x

YES more adventures please and camping meals!

So enjoyed being along for your big adventure. Thank you for including us. Luv seeing yiu together 💕

I cut out cardboard window covers for my rav4 sleeper too! Not only does it help block out light, but it gives you the feeling of privacy which radically changes your mindset. I used them traveling cross country stopping at vegan restaurants, waterfalls and hiking trails, and local libraries to help find the first two and to recharge the batteries and fill up on free water. Breckenridge CO had the nicest most swank library, plus a totally vegan pizzeria with mind-blowing pies. And there was a ton of free camping in the area. I also used the cardboards in NYC around central park and nobody ever said a thing. People are too busy with their own lives to really care about cardboard in a car. Living rent free is a gamechanger, if you can pull it off.

Awesome video - love the travel journalism here! Stoked to someday visit

thumbs up for combining food with travel

"you never have s'mores at home" yeah... i dont light my bbq for s'mores... who does that lol great video!

I loved watching this so much! Yes more adventures!

Love the video! Another place for my bucket list, and yummy camping food ideas too 😃

More travel videos please. Thanks for taking us along.

I always appreciate that you show how it is not the end of the world to not eat 100%. We are all humane and enjoying life is important.

The perfect 20 minute video to watch while doing cardio at the end of my workout! Thanks so much for sharing, I never miss a video yours. ☺️

i am SO here for more adventure type videos!

This was very enjoyable. The scenery is just breathtaking and I loved the little garden in the forest. Thanks for sharing.

Love your adventures videos together!! I've renewed with camping at 56 years old (!) and find it the best way to be fully present and see less crowded nature. We are at the opposite side of Canada, I'm from Quebec across from Ottawa,. It is so nice to share ingredients & recipes I can replicate easily that are so yummy! It always takes a while for my friends to realise how simple it is to have amazing & nourishing vegan/vegetarian/plant-based meals when camping....back to nature it's...natural 🤣❤

Wonderful adventure. Than I s for taking us along

Wow, wow, WOW, what an incredible trip to such an unique and special place. Love that you’re camping in the car…we’ve done that, too. And, you mentioning bears and cougars, makes me think that I would not want to be in a little ol’ tent at night….haha, I know that the wildlife would probably not bother you, but my overactive imagination would! Great meals…really hearty and delicious. And, yes, to more adventures…Vancouver Island is incredible! Western Canada is endless eye candy, really.❤❤

More Vancouver Island out and abouts 🎉❤😊

Wonderful video! It's l8vely seeing you and Crystal out and about having adventures together. More please.

Yes to more adventure videos with the cutest vegan couple on KZfaq! 🥰

You guys are great - so caring and loving together, so beautiful, so entertaining and so inspiring- makes me want to go camping soon and hang out in nature, the greatest destressor with all the good energy and phytonutrients living in the air which we absorb into our being. You both are an awesome couple for many reasons - thanks for being such a great example in so many ways. Keep up the good work and special adventures and may God bless you both with His Love and Grace always. ❤😂❤

What a cool camping trip! I love the way you transformed your car into a camper, very inspiring idea! Vancouver Island is looking super beautiful!!! 😍

Great idea guys. Love your choice of exploring, plus vegan food on the go! You may also have encouraged some visitors to that gorgeous spot. Well done. Canadian content, much appreciated. ❤️

Loved this ❤ I love how effortless you two are together

Definitely more adventures! I love the vlogs where you go trekking in nature! 🤙

This was wonderful! I am a camper and loved seeing this ! Keep them coming. You two are so special!🥰

Loved this video! Seeing the wildlife was cool, too. Also appreciated seeing what you chose to bring for food.

This is now one of my top favorite videos. Please do more videos like this! The food & scenery were great! And really enjoyed watching you & Crystal on your camping adventure.

Thanks for taking us with you on your road trip and for the amazing view of the beach and caves ☺️

Awesome video, such a cool and beautiful place! Thanks for taking us along. Yes, to more videos like this. Love watching you guys!!❤❤

One of the vids that I have a huge smile start to finish watching it. Beautiful times guys!

Yay!!!! So excited!!!! I want to go camping! You guys are the best!

I love the idea of 'food on the go.' I go camping with my non plant based family and always find food a problem. Thanks.

Yesss please more adventure videos! This was probably one of my favs so far! You guys are my favorite. I camp lots with my family so this vid was so fun to watch

You two are just so adorable. What a great video! And I loved how many times you both said, 'It's so good!' Also, I loved that you said Crystal didn't sleep well because she was worried someone would break in. That's me. :) I like to take oats, peanut butter, and mandarin oranges, mushed together, for an easy/quick/portable camping snack and guess what? It is so good! This was such a fun, uplifting, sweet video and like others expressed, makes us want to get out explore local places. Thanks so much!

Wow, that was awesome, thanks for sharing this with us.

Just love love this video. Really enjoy all that you make but it’s really nice to see you both on adventures around your part of the world.❤

Really loved that Idea of vlog! It gave ideas for camping Trips and camping tips! I cant wait tongo camping with friends!

Throwing a RAVE in the RAV 😆 Thanks for sharing a bit of your vacations with us.

Oooh! I love car camping (although I don’t find spare time to do it often)! This video was a delight! I’d love to see more of your setup, tips for what items were the most useful etc.

Spectacular, thanks for sharing guys!!! ❤

Thank you for taking us on a trip with you and showing around 🤩 You should definitely make videos like this!

I camp a lot. I appreciate these camping meal ideas and the beautiful scenery!

Thank you for sharing this!!!! beautiful.

I love, love, love this video! Y'all are so much fun to watch and truly inspiring. Vancouver Island is still on my bucket list! Love and HUGS!❤

Great video! I really appreciated your footage of nature's beauty, your choice of intro music and overall production values! Nice work, and cool-looking food, too!
