Hitchhiking from Alaska to Vancouver with New Friends

I spent a few weeks in Alaska where I met some great people involved in the couchsurfing project, two of which I linked up with in a great hitchhiking trip down to Vancouver. We got split up a few times, raced thumb vs thumb, got near-stranded and had a great time through and through.

why are most of your videos from so long ago? got any new stuff or updates concerning your travels?

[HoboLifestyle]

@kellowjo Tons of stuff, just writing instead of videos. HoboLifestyle - I write about everything, so that's pretty up to date. I kept losing cameras and my video editing software became finicky which slowed down the whole video thing. I've been taking some video in New Zealand where I'm at now, so eventually I'll get to posting some of that as well, the pig chasing video was here in NZ, and plenty of pictures to find as well already posted.
