The time lapse photo of the van with stars in the background was epic!!

@georgemiller9713

I love seeing you folks having fun. I appreciate it. You never swear you don't drink alcohol. It's very rarely you can find people like yourself on YouTube. Thanks for being a great example. You guys are the best your friend George.

Wow! My girlfriend and I were 100% at Bandelier the same day. Even saw the Sprinter with Texas plates in the visitor center parking lot and joked "what if that's A+K?" and then once this video came out realized we were right! Small world!

I'm so happy that you're back to doing road trips in the US!
Our first visit to NM was back in 2003, flying all the way from London UK, where we were living at the time. Since we had to splurge on flights and took a good chunk of our precious holiday time, we've made an absolutely jam-packed itinerary to go around NM, UT and AZ in just 3 weeks. 
Now we are so blessed to be living in the US- so much cheaper and takes only 4.5hrs to reach our favourite places on earth!

I grew up in Los Alamos, just a few miles from Bandolier.  The entire area is riddled with caves and small-house dwellings both in the canyons and on the plateau above.  Great fun for young kids to play and climb.  And petroglyphs everywhere.

@vegantattoo7292

I am an L.A. to Northern New Mexico transplant for 17 years now and love the fact that it's underrated.  Shhhhhhhh.......don't tell anyone! You drove through my neighborhood to get to Bandalier. I feel so blessed to wake up and go outside every day.

The American West is such a unique, special place! There really is no other place like it. Guys, we went to Newberry Volcanic Monument yesterday and were blown away by the views and the knowledge! It's still too snowy in the Cascade Range to the west so we've been exploring east and I need to let you in on a little secret: eastern Oregon is *incredible*!! If you get the time, research all 3 units of the "John Day Fossil Beds National Monument". Also, the Wallowa mountains near the little town of Joseph, and Hell's Canyon. Truly mind-blowing, epic landscapes and not a lot of people know about them.

Hope you'll take time to visit Mesa Verde National Park in southwest Colorado, which is also known for their cliff dwellings. My father grew up in the nearby town of Mancos and my grandfather made the original cement posts for the highway guardrails in the park. After forming them he threw them in the Mancos river so they would cure slower, which ultimately made them much harder. When they were delivered, an inspector tested them by driving his car into one, which left a sizable dent in his bumper.

Pro tip: Hook the moonshade to the van BEFORE you put the poles into it!!!! That way it won’t try to fly away from you. We use one on our basecamp and love it!!

@azstargazer912

I have been subscribed to your channel for a long time and really enjoy your videos.  I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to add links of the places you visit in your description.  I know it is extra work, but it is very much appreciated.  Safe travels and keep having fun!

@rosalineoh7382

No, it's not boring at all! I loved all the shots of you two lounging, drinking coffee, and working at the beautiful boondocking campsite. Please do a lot more of chilling at beautiful places, and please share it with us :)

@NW918

I’ve been to New Mexico over 5 times now and Bandelier National Monument twice. New Mexico really is the land of enchantment. It was fun to relive some of my previous trips by watching this video, thanks :) I’ll be exploring new areas of New Mexico in June while I drive from Kansas to my new home in Phoenix! I can’t wait for it

@dreamlord911

Currently in the process of planning a New Mexico road trip ourselves! Such a beautiful state that seems to fly under the radar.

@Stephanie-rn7ry

So happy to see you both back in the van life. I hope it's been an awesome time and look forward to your journeys!!

@joyouslily2982

Whoa you can’t really trade those views , the freedom and no people on this trip. Sweet!❤What a fabulous fairy playground to explore! I love you guys🍧💜

@RogerSweeny

Northern New Mexico is great.  Abiqui has Ghost Ranch, with a lot of Georgia O'Keefe stuff.  You can see some of where she painted.  There's also a great trail along the creek.  And if you're going to do that, go to the Georgia O'Keefe Museum in Santa Fe.  Very well done.

If you want a local favorite, the New Mexico chain (Blake's) Lotaburger has the "New Mexico Style" Lotaburger, yes with chiles.

@UDKME313

I absolutely love international videos but something about A+K back in the van riding through Canada & the states feels good. It feels like back to the basics. I love it. I miss New Mexico and now I’m craving green chili stew. Anyone in Michigan able to Make some? 😢

@michaelbecnel63

I'm really liking the slower pace & just hanging out...Happy Trails 🦮

@MyraHart1943

Your joy, the unique landscapes, the music selection... all of it combined was so wonderful and I adored it!
