They Told Me Not to Come Here

So... would you brave Alaska in the autumn? 😜

Actually as a 22 year veteran on living in Alaska (Haines) you actually had a better trip now that in mid-summer. And that's because of the mosquitos which become nightmarish on the other side of the Brooks Range. I'm following you with interest, hoping you stop in Haines on the way back so that you aren't just rushing through AK. October is a great time to travel there. If you go through the MAIN Alaska Highway instead of the Cassiar you will have one day with all the animals you could want between Liard Hot Springs (hint) and Fort Nelson. October is the time, don't miss it. I'm serious it never fails. May you drive meaningfully Eva. It's not about how much you see, but how meaningfully you experience it.

Nick and Matilde is such a blessing to this trip. Feel happy you are with them, such a relief, cant imagine how stressed you are if you are only on your own.

your editing and production is really, really good. Amazing how you can get drone shots too.... so fun to watch your travels

You are a great storyteller, it doesn't matter what happens to you it's always great to watch and as we travel with you I get more and more exited!

Your little boy is getting so big. He's going to be a great dog. I've lived in Alaska for over 40 years. Glad you got to see Alaska.

So glad that Nick was able to troubleshoot your problem and it happened in Fairbanks. You have an angel on your shoulder for sure and are blessed to be traveling with such nice companions. Keep adventuring girl, but always be smart and always curious. Don’t forget to stop and experience the place. The road and the destination is empty if you don’t enjoy, experience and learn about what you’re seeing during the journey.

So I've only just run across this channel... I'm jealous! Thank you for bringing us along on your adventure. You guys are incredible.

Eva, Just got finished an adventure moving a friend from Maryland to Tacoma, Washington. Beautiful weather all the way, fantastic sights and gorgeous mountains taking Route 90 most of the way. I must say my buddy Mark probably brought me along because of my years of experience fixing and repairing vehicles. Our mantra quickly became, "What if it all works out". Positive thinking and vibes for any long journey. Safe travels.

A small volt meter will tell you 1) the engine off -- battery voltage 12.V+ OK 10V bad cell -- new battery 2) while the engine is running 14.5V+ alternator is good. -- Probes on proper terminals of the battery. Locks -- A bit of grease around any openings will prevent water, dust, or mud from freezing the mechanism, also lubricate the insides with powdered graphite, it does not freeze. Dialectic grease coating starter terminals will help with preventing corrosion, be sure they are tightened

Seeing your pups sense your concern of the car not starting and coming forward to help you figure it out was awesome. Surprised he does not ride up front all the time with you. Miles Cobbett, Fairbanks Alaska

Awesome! Your Odyssey broke down at the gas station where we always fill up out fire engines. I work for State Forestry responding to Wildland fires in the bush in Fairbanks/Fox /towards Delta and down the Highway towards Anchorage until Denali National Park.

You brought me memories. Our military sent me to Alaska for 3 years. I made it to both Deadhorse and Chicken and more. And I drove out on those roads when I was done. Adventure! Be safe.

Im surprised and I’m dying of love. When you are worried puppy’s face is kind of worried too. It’s like he knows what you are feeling and what is actually happening. You two are the best, and also your new friends that seem to be sooo nice.

Hint in cold weather: DON'T SHUT THE ENGINE OFF. Diesel won't use that much fuel idling. That's why semi drivers don't shut their trucks off in winter. Keep the fuel tank full with anti-gel additive in it at EVERY fill up.

Hi Eva! Vilk is so precious and handsome. You are doing a great job training him. I love your enthusiasm and positive outlook. I bet your parents are so proud and in awe of the adventure girl they created!!! No one has mentioned to remember safety glasses or sunglasses when cutting metal. I hope that You, Vilk, Matilde, and Nick continue to have awesome adventures of the best kind!

That was one of my favorite videos of your's... love the view from the drone . Glad you are safe and desided to travel with others !!!

One thing I never travel without is a dremel rotary tool. They have a metal cutting disc that will cut thru any lock, rusted bolt etc. Its a very compact tool that can solve lots of issues. There are tons of different accessories that you can buy as well. When I went to Alaska I felt the people were extra kind and helpful.

It’s so awesome to see someone else whom is interested in all this world offers and is a free spirit and is conquering the purpose of life. Also It is so awesome to see how well you handle yourself during the hardships and breakdowns. We only experience those testing times in our lives so that we become stronger beings. GoodVibes to You and Vilk -Cotton & “TaMa MawKwa” (my German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees who enjoys Vilk’s travels)

I like it so much, cant wait for continuing! Eva, as always: genuine, interesting, just right personal stories not to be just nice pictures and shots. You know wery well how to keep that balance, I imagine it's not easy. Wish you all good on the trip!🥰🥰
