*Who are we?*
We’re Victoria & Craig, a full-time travel couple currently living the RV lifestyle! In 2021, we realized life was too short to wait to chase our dreams, so we purchased a used fifth wheel camper and completely renovated it. After selling our house in Florida, we set off on our journey as full-time RVers. Full time RV living has taken us across the United States, Baja Mexico, and Canada, where we’ve fallen in love with boondocking in stunning locations and living an epic adventure travel lifestyle. In 2023, we upgraded to a brand new Brinkley RV Model Z 3100.

My husband and I retired, and we don't have all the energy y'all have, but we love to RV and you've inspired us to get out there and take that trip to Alaska. It's been my husband's dream trip for years. It's now or never. Y'all are the cutest couple ever, always have smiles on your faces. Keep on having fun and taking it one day at a time! God Bless and save travels.

Alaska is possibly best done with a truck slide in camper. Much easier to find boondock spots and easier to get around. We just did Valdez force first time this year. The waterfalls are amazing. We were able to get off road in Thompson pass and camp right up on the bluff. Thanks for sharing.

You guys are making me want to get back there now. We spent the entire summer there last year. Our week in Valdez was rainy most of the time but that made the rivers and waterfalls even more special. Make sure and visit at least one or two of the local museums.

Fun Fact: On Good Friday in 1964 the biggest earthquake in North America hit near Valdez. It lasted more than 4 minutes and afterwards the ground was so unstable they had to move the entire town about 4 miles. Residents had three years to make the move and then the old town was burned to the ground.

You guys hit a home run with this video. The violin with the waterfalls was AMAZING

Me and the wife have drove to Alaska 7 times and Valdez is our favored place to go to in Alaska. The fishing is also very good. Be save and have fun

[timwoody]

Awesome video. I’m so glad you got to Valdez I think it’s probably one of the underrated places in Alaska. Again, I really enjoy your videos and that you take us along on your adventures.

Excellent music choices especially the circus one for the ice!

Laughing at the Tag on the tunnel wall behind Victoria right before the icecapades!

[rongray]

Wow!! the views in todays video are breathtaking taking, absolutely beautiful. The different water falls also breathtaking. The tunnels are nice but strange. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

OIMG!! You two on the ice in the tunnel...that was hilarious!! Thank you.

[vickiedavis]

You guys are soooo adventurous and I love. Great vid, keep em coming!

[boondockingnomads]

I love watching your Alaska trip. We did it last year and spent the summer. You are right Valdez is gorgeous.
Reservations tip: typically campgrounds will have openings each morning. By about noon they start getting booked. We worked in North Pole last year and that held true.

Enjoyed the screnery and watching you have so much fun. Always wanted to go to Alaska in a camper/RV starting fifty years ago. I will probaly never make it now, but am enjoying watching you make the most of it. Thanks for your adventures.

I was suprised to learn the inside passage on a cruise… rain forest. Soooo green

[badgerpa]

Excellent job on the filming, editing, etc. Stay safe and healthy.

[MrElh]

One of your best videos, great drone footage, you guys made me feel like I could jump into the waterfall.

[billmccabe]

I've been binge watching you this morning. Fun. ❤

[GGallagher]

Love watching your adventures! Thank you for sharing 💙

Our caravan group just left Valdez this morning. It’s been by far our favorite stop.
We’ve completed the circle. We are now back in Tok.
