I wanted to leave that so-called culture for something much better abroad when I was 12yrs old. Started traveling the world in my 20's, to find the perfect place for me. I'm there now, zero desire to return to the U.S. 50+ yrs living, working there was enough for me. I can no longer live among Americans, meaning, no moral compass, dumb as a rock outside their job, comfort zone dwellers for life. If you don't get out, you will eventually become one of them, and not even realize it. So, escape while you can!

Much like living in a sky rise in NYC, or a beach front property in California, it’s not cheap because it’s a popular market with limited availability.

@@-officialEvazuBeck. and I’ve got a surprise for you p.o.s. Scammer

Hi Eva: I am 73 years old and I have been a traveler all my life. for work and personally. I have lived a bit harder than you have. I once calculated that I had slept on the ground with no tent for over 4000 nights probably more now. I worked in the woods as a contractor and eventually for the US Forest Service. I started pretty early in my teens doing this kind work fighting forest fires doing all kinds of jobs. By my 30's I needed a home base as you suggested you do. I bought a 7acre place near Eugene, Oregon. for $7000 and built a log cabin but it was not quite remote enough. I still own it but only visit it a bit. I finally ended up in Oregon on the Idaho boarder about 3 miles from Halfway, Or. I live in a place called Pine Town where 9 people live. I live right by and airport. It is 50 miles from the nearest small town and 150 miles from Boise, ID. I have and airplane a Cessna 170 that is great to go out to back country airports inside wilderness areas.. I have about 30 million acres of wilderness out my back door and can get into it very quickly and can stay as long as I want. Fortunately I learned early how to navigate off trail before GPS and spend most of my time in wilderness off trail and love to sleep on the ground so I can look up at the stars. My roots are in a very rural place that is much like Northern Idaho, Western Montana and Western Wyoming. I had an off shore sail boat a Swan 36 and sailed in the Caribbean and all over the east coast but I sold it last year, it was a great time but I was ready to move on. I have always lived in Oregon I'm a 5th generation Oregonian on both side so really have deep roots here. I love being as far east as I can be in Oregon. Can share with you all kind of places where you can find some nice places you could live and spend less that $200 to set up something you could like. They are very remote, but you have most the skills to live this way. It takes stocking up, growing a garden and not having a big grocery store near by. I go to my cupboard, freezer or root seller to deicide what is for dinner. I have tricks to have a good garden and be able to be gone a few weeks at a time. I only discovered you a few weeks ago and have enjoy your KZread posts. Glad to share and answer your questions if you like. Good Luck ET

One of my favorite places that I vacationed was for a night or two in a rented RV at a campsite in the Oregon high desert. I remember taking a packed lunch, portable chair, book, and my dog to a large golden meadow nearby with scattered pine trees and spending several hours in one spot just decompressing. I don't know where (or if) I might still have any of my notes from that trip, so I doubt I could figure out where I was precisely enough to return one day, but it's a fond memory at least.

I traveled around the world for 3.5 years out of a backpack. Towards the end it sorta lost its purpose. Everywhere I went was new and exciting but there was noone there who "knew" me to share it with. There is a lot to be said for having roots, a place to call home... your own shower. My transition from fulltime backpacker to regular everyday life took me a bit by surprise. It will be interesting to see what this is like for you. All the best to you.

I am an American and I’ve accepted that I probably will not own house in my city. I’ll have to move to a very small city or out of the country. You pretty much addressed why many people here live with roommates, with their parents or even in their cars. The American dream no longer includes a house the last 20 years or so 😂😂.

@craigsilver9 No insult intended: But If you are an American and is over 55 today, a man with out any severe disabilities and don't own a house, IMO, is because you didn't want to do so.... unless u lived in a very expensive city. I came to the US with $1,032 in 1980 as a 20 yr old ... got cheated $700 when I tried to buy a used Gran Turino car... so I was left with $332. I worked 2 jobs, went to school, slept on the floor of a friend apartment, ate ramen with the cheapest hotdog as meat and today I have 3 properties and a retirement income of $4k+. I am not bragging. I came to the US legally. And I am not a very smart person, non-white, just average, used no drugs or alcohol, no family here in America to help me, no US gov't assistance, always paid my taxes, etc IMO, The American dream is still very much ALIVE for those who want it, so I feel like you don't know what you are saying, when u say the American dream is not available. I am speaking out as I think too many people like yourself are pushing the wrong narrative. Once again no insult intended: But I would love to hear, how life has treated you, that you have loss or gave up on the opportunities to do better for yourself. ps: 65 upticks on you comment, I predict I will get maybe 5 upticks and 500 downticks.

While I was in a lot of cities, I can't tell you much about them, because I was working all of the time, not sightseeing. At first, I was excited to be flying in an airplane.

Eva, I have enjoyed your American adventure so much! I’m sorry to see you leave…sorry for our housing prices!!! I look forward to hearing that you and Vilk, and Oddessy arrived in Europe safely. Thank you for sharing…INSPIRED!

Good luck Eva! I wish you well on your journey. Don’t worry so much, eventually you will find the destination. We all do.

I just ran across your channel Eva while watching videos in Armenia. I must say, you have me hooked. I wish you the very best. May your travels be safe and productive.

I wandered around Europe, North, and West Africa, USSR and the USA for about 8 years, back in the 1970s, no mobiles, internet, etc so a very haphazard but wonderful times. I can understand the need to find a fixed point in one's life I ended up back in my home country, and I still traveled but on shorter more organised trips. By organised trips I mean I knew where I was going. Wherever you put down roots I wish you every happiness, though I will be surprised if you lose the urge to travel. The very best of luck young lady.

Sadly Eva, ALL of us face this same personal issue in our lives. We mature, become wiser, and find a need to have a place to call home. Someplace permanent. Luckily you made this determination still in your youth. Strangely, I found just the OPPOSITE in finding someplace to live. I lived in London. I lived in Switzerland. But, as an American, I found EVERYTHING to be SO EXPENSIVE in Europe. Buying a house was VERY expensive. But HALF the size as comparable in the US. Your specific issue is more complicated, hence the cost, because you wanted land. Lots of land. If you tried to duplicate all that acreage with a house in Europe, you will find it even MORE expensive. So our dreams need to become more realistic and practical. As for Odyssey, the solution was actually simpler. Sell it. Buy a US, up dated, up graded version of Odyssey. They sell the same model and make in the US. But if Europe is where you think you can feel you are home, then you have your answer.

It’s sad I only found your channel now, being a California resident we could have shared some interesting experiences. Don’t give up on your dreams, there’s always a way! I did the polar opposite to you. I lived in Central Europe and at one point in time wanted to settle down in Bratislava. I loved it so much! I’m going to enjoy following you and seeing where your life’s journey takes you next. Blessings & gratitude! 💕🙏🏻

Thank you for sharing your life. I am a better person for knowing of you, and I am proud of you for everything you have done, I hope someday you will find your home here in the US, but more importantly that you are able to find a place you can call home, that gives you peace. Thank you for all you have done, and I really felt it when you said the end of an era. I can identify with that feeling I drove 1.2 million miles before I had a health crisis. I got sick and my wife ended up having liver failure due to an autoimmune disease it took place over the matter of just 30 days. She got a transplant at the last second and is doing okay, and my health has improved greatly. I guess that I wanted to say as a fan of your work, I definitely understand how life can change. I wish and pray for all the best for you. thank you for displaying that you are not invincible and being open with us in ways that so many struggle with, it was nice to watch your content as you have progressed. My wife and I wish for you the very best, and we look forward to seeing future content. For now just recharge and do what you need to do, we will be here when you're new videos come out and we look forward to any future content. You are always welcome here.

There is an area in the north central US called the Driftless area. It's an area that was missed by the glaciers thousands of years ago. It is located in parts of the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and even Illinois. If you're not aware of it, I strongly urge you research it and maybe check it out . Beautiful nature,wide open spaces and reasonably price housing.

I feel you. The American dream has become inaccessible for most Americans too.

What a wonderful pleasure it has been to have you traveling in the USA. You opened our eyes to some of our own country in a very positive way. Just know that many Americans feel the same way you do with the costs of living and buying is so expensive. Very understandable feelings indeed. Thank you and I look forward to you showing us new and different dreams God Speed EVA USA will miss you.

Hello my beautiful friend Eva , what a blessing to me , my spirit , my soul to watch your videos. Forgive me but over last couple years or so I’ve watched only a few but here lately , perhaps because where I’m now at in my life I have rediscovered your videos , your trips here in America. For me they were both heart warming and inspirational. I currently live in southern Indiana ( Midwest ) and have never visited out west :( watching your videos , your joy , struggles have not only reminded me of myself but also rekindled my spirit to “ live again “ :) there is much I would like to speak , express perhaps later time. Thank you !!!

This feels like losing a friend and a pet. I hope you find peace wherever you go. Please don’t leave us hanging . Stay in touch with us all. ❤

I think it is very sweet that you are taking home an U.S. accent!! We all chase the dream of buying a home here. Good luck to you and your sweet boy. I really enjoyed watching you roam my neck of the woods N. Idaho / Montana.

I'm a new subscriber, I've only seen a couple of your videos. I was so sad to see you leave, not sure exactly why... you provide great content and while i live in western U.S. (Colorado) I don't always get to travel where you went. It felt like saying goodbye to a friend move away watching this...I know sort of crazy. I will for sure keep watching. Best of luck to you.

I only found your channel about five months ago. When I was younger I travelled the West every year when I could take long vacations. While I visited many of the areas you did, your explorations were fascinating and very different than most. You truly explored the outer world and at the same time your inner world which makes you so unique. I too searched to find a living area in the northwest but due to health issues found an affordable cabin in the southwestern desert. Continue to trust your intuition and inner callings, it will lead you to where you need to be. I love the beginning of the video seeing you walk on the beach in bare feet with Vilk. What a lucky pup. Looking forward to watching your vids from the beginning. Blessings on your continued travels within and through life.

Ditto to so many of you. As a lifelong Montana resident it’s so sad to see many of our native residents no longer able to live here. We would have loved to call you a neighbor Eva - you seem to embody the Montana spirit! For more on the housing crisis and affordability crisis consider reading this great book: Billionaire Wilderness by Justin Farrell.

Eve I have been following you for the past 5 years and you had a great impact on my life. Seeing you changing from one dream to an other makes me feel confused but it shows me how courage you are. Sometimes I feel like I wanna change my dream (or the path that I have chosen) but I just don't have enough courage to admit that to myself. Good luck in every step you take.

I just found your channel by accident, you are an amazing person, have a great soul, and a very nice wandering star of life. Definitely subbed, who would not? I really love your passion for life and all its opportunities. Sicily in Europe is a perfect place, its central, lots to do, has amazing country side, beautiful mountains, fantastic culture, friendly, and some of the beautiful authentic style homes are very cheap to buy. Skiing is a never far away on a flight, and surrounded by all the beautiful places in Europe...may I say the weather is lovely and warm most of the year, the food is out of this world, and I know you will enjoy lots of peace and quiet there with little crime. That is my suggestion.. Good luck.God Bless you Eva!

Dear Eva, you're a lovely friend surrogate here on YT, sorry to hear about your mental health, I hope it will get better soon, the world can unfortunately be pretty f****d up and it's quite normal that your mind reacts with distress to distressful situations but please don't forget that you're pretty amazing so don't allow any creepy crap to convince you otherwise. Your videos have been a mental health relief for many of us much more than any regular service in the market so may it all come back when you need it the most. Take care 💪🩷

I can relate so much with all of your thoughts with buying property in the US. It's insane what this country is quickly becoming. GOOD LUCK TO YOU AND VILK and thanks again. 🖖😁🙏💙

Our loss is Europe's gain! We are less without you. Thank you for sharing your travels and allowing many in this country to better appreciate what we have. Good luck in your future!

You’re following your intuition an$ knowledge of yourself. Best wishes for a future that’s brilliant and rich in life. If you continue posting videos I’ll keep watching. It’s particularly interesting for me given I’ve lived an adventurous life, immigrated to the US in 1963, had 56 years with my soul mate and loved my life and soon will embark on my 80th year facing many changes myself.

If you're wanting nature at an affordable price. Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio, parts of Tennessee (to a lesser extent) and across Appalachia are affordable. The problem with a lot of Western states is that a lot of people, especially rich people from California, also want to live there. Idaho is a prime example of what you're seeing. In the US there are a lot of ridiculously expensive pockets but if you're willing to live in the cheaper (less "glamorous") parts of the country. There are actually places you can afford. The Midwest is also a cheap place to live, Dubuque Iowa is a pretty and inexpensive part of the state. It's also currently a seller's market across the country so that doesn't help.

Wow Eva, this one really hit home for me. As an american but also a world traveler, California was my dream since i was a child and i moved there 20 years ago and worked very hard to try to build a life for myself there, in the place that had become my home. However yes due to the cost of living (housing specifically) in the USA these days it became very clear that my dream of owning a home just wasn't going to happen and even renting became a struggle, so now I'm back out there exploring the world trying to find a new place to call home. Congrats on your incredible journey thus far and i wish you best of luck in this next phase of life!

It is insane, the housing prices in California. Average priced single family home in San Diego is $1 million. And when I say average, i mean AVERAGE! Nothing special. My sister was trying to buy a place here with a $1.1 million budget and gave up. She had a modest, short list of requirements and nothing filled the bill. Wound up buying in Seattle, which isn't exactly cheap. But no comparison for how much home she got for that budget up there.

Most people build their lives around other people before deciding where to settle. Is that what is missing in your life? Person or people who define your life. (Love your videos!)

Love your adventures!

I wish you well in your journey. Love from California

Airbnb has had the same effect in Australia. I’m in Tasmania and I’ve never seen homelessness here like the last 5 years. Rents have gone through the roof. We have a big tourism industry and many cashed-up people visit and then return here paying big dollars for property pushing prices up out of the reach of locals.
