In the opening video of their travel vlog, the narrator introduces a 12‑to‑14‑day road trip that began in San Diego and is winding up in Bellingham, Washington, with a current stop in Oregon. They travel in a Mini Cooper, expressing affection for the car and noting the scenic, almost Irish‑looking landscape despite occasional slash‑and‑burn activity. While on the road, they are consulting Rick Steves' "Best of Europe" and "Europe Through the Back Door" guidebooks to shape an upcoming European itinerary. So far they have reached Venice, marking roughly halfway through a planned two‑month European segment that follows a loosely scheduled calendar. They anticipate meeting friends around Rome or Greece, allowing for unscheduled hang‑outs before continuing to plan the remainder of the trip. The video serves as a friendly welcome to viewers, outlining past travel, current experiences, and future plans.

Hey, so welcome to the first video for our travel vlog. We're ending our 12 to 14 day trip from San Diego up to Bellingham, Washington, hanging out with family and friends. We've been driving our Mini Cooper, which is a whole lot of fun. We're gonna miss this baby. My wife's driving right now, and we're currently in Oregon. So except for the slash and burn that's going on up there, it's actually been pretty pretty cool. Looks like Ireland, I would guess, but I haven't been there yet. So, which brings us to another point. We're actually, while we're driving, going through these Rick Steves Best of Europe and Europe Through the Back Door books and kind of using these as some, some trial and error, checking to see, you know, what's a good, what's a good path to take around Europe. And so, so far I think we've gotten to about Venice, and that's about halfway through our first 2 months. So that's about a month and a half that we've been on the road that we've planned so far in a calendar. And it's a pretty loose plan, but we figure by about the time we hit Rome or so, Rome or Greece, we're gonna meet up with some friends and probably take some unscheduled time to hang out with them as we bounce around that area. And then we'll keep, keep planning from there. So I think that's about all we got for right now. But, uh, so yeah. Welcome to our vlog.
