just go and figure it out yeah let's wing it which Awards Yellowstone
mines or get s over so we can check out Maps find a fuel station because we've only got
about a quarter of a tank left which for this isn't that much so far we haven't seen anything
and we don't have any phone service we're Lloyd and Mandy a Canadian Aussie couple that
spent the last 18 months traveling as digital Nomads through southeast Asia and Mexico now

[Music] all right we're just somewhere in Montana where are we Phillipsburg Phillipsburg
and we're making our way down slowly but surely to Yellowstone we're driving to big Sky Big

there we've been to a few places that have a name with big in it we've been to Big Arm
Big Fork and now we're going to Big Sky everything's bigger in America everything's very big in
Montana uh and Mandy's driving for the first time since the day we bought this RV what
made you decide to drive today I feel bad but also I I need to do more it's okay I don't
mind driving but cool I get to be passing you today and I'm going to film Maybe we've
got bear on me this is why you wanted to drive yeah I needed a break from there
use your mirrors [Music] thank you it's true [Music]
[Music]
[Music] thank you
all right we just got to a big sky in Montana and first impressions pretty bloody awesome
we really like it it's sort of a strange little town all the buildings and all the houses
and stuff look like they were built like on the same day like with the same materials
but it's really cool yeah it looks like a brand new town um I'm not sure how long it's
been around for but the houses here are really nice the shops are all really nice it's very
quiet at the moment we went to one of the local bars for a beer and it was pretty much
empty but it is a Sunday one of the locals gave us a tip to check out some waterfalls
remember what they're called Russell Falls um we're gonna check them out do a bit of
exploring and then we'll find a campsite for tonight but we really like it here
[Music]
oh [Applause]
[Music] foreign [Music]
[Music] first one is two for one pizzas every day from seven to eight well that's us tonight
is that every day though because that other bar we mentioned yesterday said every day
yeah I asked her about she said no not on Sundays so Sunday's a day we could try [Music]
[Music]
thank you
what do we get we got a couple stickers and a couple beer stubby coolers stubby holders
I don't know what to call them anymore they just went into the visitor center here in
Bay sky and the girls in there were so helpful got some nice little touristy things that
we can keep for the RV we really needed beer coolers they just pretty much gave us a full
rundown on the best way to head into Yellowstone so that's what we're going to be doing tomorrow
we're gonna do just a day trip through Yellowstone and head in through the West entrance they
said was the best way yeah we need to figure out where we're going to stay in Yellowstone
yeah I think we need two days there and that means we have to stay overnight yeah but it
looks like everything's booked out we'll figure it out we'll just go and figure it out yeah
just wing it we're just gonna go check out the cinema because Lloyd says that it plays
NBA and NHL playoffs in there so go check that out it's weirdly dead here I know we're
here in the wrong season but it's so nice it's weird that there's not more people here
[Music]
missing video games tonight
do you want to go play video games all right basketball Friday Saturdays all right we just
need to say a quick thank you to Safe doing for sponsoring today's video and making this
free content possible since we left Australia back in 2021 to travel full-time we've had
Peace of Mind knowing that we're covered in case anything goes wrong while we're overseas
and that's because we've been using safety Wings since day one and thankfully we did
because on the one occasion we did have to use the assistance of safety Wing they got
us through a pretty sticky situation in fact at one point I was so sick in Mexico Lloyd
had to call safety Wing because he thought he was going to have to take me to the emergency
room and when we rang safety Wing they were super helpful and let us know all the hospitals
that we could go to that would be able to claim our money back and they also told us
about hospitals to avoid because sometimes they'll charge you way more than what they're
supposed to we also got extremely sick at the start of our trip in Bali and I had a
nurse come to our room for seven days straight which wasn't exactly cheap but luckily our
Nomad Insurance completely covered us and we were reimbursed within 30 days of making
our claim just knowing that we're covered in case of an emergency Health scare like
that has given us the confidence and freedom them to keep traveling without worrying about
racking up huge debts from hospital bills and not only do they cover us for medical
bills including covid-19 we're also covered for any loss of luggage or personal items
Airline delays and even things like natural disasters and personal liability with coverage
starting at as little as 45 dollars a month it's kind of a no-brainer and with no locking
contracts you can cancel at any time we'll leave the link in the description to safety
Wing if you're interested in joining we highly recommend it alright now back to the video
[Music]
thank you
[Music]
[Music] [Applause] foreign
was a lot more hectic than the pictures that we were shown wasn't it oh yeah oh yeah the
pictures that she showed us were like really mellow and the waterfalls look like you could
actually go down into them and like take pictures and stuff in front of them but yeah as you
can see overflowing and probably just because all the snow that's melting at the moment
but still very beautiful and this walk has been amazing every hike that we've been on
in North America everything's just like so well kept and clean but and easy to access
the trails like kind of take that for granted when I was a kid definitely
[Music]
foreign [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
[Music]
so we just left our campsite where there was no service and we're driving towards Yellowstone
hoping to see some signs or get some service so we can check out maps and find we're only
got about a quarter of a tank left which for this isn't that much so far we haven't seen
anything and we don't have any phone service and a thick wearing Yellowstone already it's
Mandy sorry I'm saying what did it say um welcome to Yellowstone yeah my guess is there's
probably not any gas stations in a national park right yeah that sucks should we turn
around I don't know I'm gonna keep driving for a bit it's about 20 minutes back to town
yeah so we're gonna add like an hour
oh yeah and it's already that's better than adding being stranded somewhere
I wish that was fine so so we can check I know okay we're turning around but I know
exactly what's going to happen it's gonna be just past yeah yeah we're gonna get fuel
we're gonna come back and we would have been five minutes away from the gas station
that's what it is oh man
what's around for 15 minutes yeah
and the pump open already wow wow
never lets me pre-authorize without cardo worst travel money card on the planet we get
frequent fly miles stick with it yeah
um I got service here so you can actually know where we're going West Yellowstone entrance
here yeah [Music] [Applause] [Music]
thank you [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign [Music]
