Welcome to solo female van life in Colorado! It was really intimidating for me to go and adventure into the great sand dunes national park alone but I learned a lot from the experience and feel full of love and good energy for overcoming that fear🏜🏄‍♀️💖

Incredibly inspirational! NOTHING beats traveling and trying new things!

OMG! I went to ALL of the "sands" places I could while I was out there this winter! (Red, White, Dunes... you get the idea) I didthe same. Feeling silly in the beginning doing it by myself but it was incredible! SO much fun. I did the sledding thing at white sands though. (I used to love sledding before I got older and so sensitive to the cold so this was awesome!

Just in awe of your videos. Smiling while you adventure. I’ll be joking the vanlife community soon and I too am a little worried about doing things all on my own. But what you’re doing inspires me that it’s okay.

Wow you did so great!! You looked like someone who has experience snowboarding. All the training in balance for gymnastics and ice skating did the trick!! You’re a marvelous sandboarder! 😀

Awesome video! I never knew that sandboarding was a thing! I laughed when you hid the dishes in the sink. I can relate. What were you whispering when you were in the shower block? If you ever feel lonely, there is a *vast* community of vanlifers. Many of them are around your age too. Every so often they’ll congregate somewhere for a few days, socialize a bit, before heading off in their various directions. Roaming Reckless, Nikki Delventhal, Mariah Alice, TTTHEFINEPRINTTT, etc. 🥰

Your skin is dry because of low humidity, low moisture in the air, in Colorado versus a lot of humidity, a lot more moisture in the air, in Virginia. You will notice you have great hair days in low humidity places as well. I am sure someone has told you this in previous comments. But just in case no one has... You are doing great with your channel!! Keep up the good work.

Wow, I never knew you could slide on sand like that! It's almost the same as snow from the looks of it! Seems like you started to get the hang of sand boarding after awhile, looks fun! I agree with you about seeing the west. I think it will be a mind blowing experience in a lot of ways. There seems to be such a vastness that you have to see and experience to really comprehend it.

@JuliaBrooke Жыл бұрын

I didn’t know either until I saw it on the national park website. Apparently the sand board is made of a special material to allow it to slide on sand- super fun!🙏🏼🏄‍♀️🏜️

hahahaha being cold and having dry skin - welcome to the western part of the US 🤣 I have to SLATHER moisturizer on my face & body constantly. Places like Florida and Hawaii are so good to my skin because it’s so humid, but it’s really dry here. I’m super excited for you to explore all there is to offer in the west!!! BUT YES to doing things alone, it is freeing, I used to feel awkward & now always feel like a bad bitch lol I loved your sand boarding clips & the music :,) Also - you mentioned you don’t know what to do now that you’re in the west…we are going to meet up 100% at some point!!!!

It’d be great if you could share the coordinates in your deets on the vid (that would make the video timeless and more of value!). Of course after you leave-no stalker here, just a newbie to BLM hunting. I know and use iOverlander, etc, but it’s great to actually see it in a vid:) thank you!!!
