Adventure Travel | Outdoor Activities

Hi! We're Lina & David Stock. In 2013 we left our corporate jobs, sold everything we owned and left NW Wisconsin to travel the world. Prior to this, we spent 12 years using every single minute of our vacation time to visit more than 30 countries while working full-time jobs. Suffice to say, it wasn't enough. We needed to see more of this great world we call home. So we planned our escape and have been traveling ever since. We are now known as America's Adventure Couple and we share our travels on our social channels and multiple award-winning travel blog. It's a labor of love and straight-up good advice from our travels to more than 125+ countries and on all 7 continents.

outdoor lifestyle | backpacking | fishing

Alaska, Alaska life, backpacking, fishing, rafting, hiking. This channel is for AKWild1. The videos capture my love of the outdoors in general, and my life in Alaska in particular. I live in a cabin I partially built on the edge of the largest national park in the country, Wrangell-St. Elias. Although I still have many modern conveniences, I still rely on subsistence hunting, fishing, and gathering. I enjoy backpacking, rafting, hiking, fat biking, fishing, hunting, photography, videography, woodworking, and pursuing a self-reliant lifestyle. Recently my wife and I hiked 2005 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, so you'll see clips of our experience as well as a full documentary. I firmly believe in the rigorous outdoor lifestyle, simple living close to the Earth, and critical thinking. I believe many of our modern ailments and afflictions could be solved with healthy outdoor activity. The mountains are my medicine. Thank you for, hopefully, subscribing to my channel. All the best.

Family travel | Outdoor adventures | Road trips

Hello world, we are the van Stralen family! We are a family of 5 who sold everything except our Jeeps to drive around the World guided by our core values that had helped us find success in business and in life - WORK, PLAY, CARE. For us CARE means to “Create A Remarkable Experience” and we do this by leaving the people we meet and the places we visit a little better than we found them. We've enjoyed amazing experiences so far like helping rescue 120 Pilot Whales that were stranded on a remote beach in New Zealand, bringing solar lights to a remote village in Haiti and planting rice with the locals in Indonesia. We’ve road tripped around Canada and the USA several times, visiting every state and province hiking and having fun together while taking every opportunity to share the message of CARE.

On the YouTube Midwest Whitetail Daily and Regional channels we produce daily web-only shows that take you through the season with over 200 pro staff members located in all parts of the Midwest. The episodes are broken up by region and come out right after the hunts occur - on a regular schedule on the site. You can literally watch hunts that took place a day earlier. Watch as we take you through the process of selecting the bucks we hunt, patterning them and then hunting those deer all season long. The deer themselves become the central characters - the stars - of this season-long drama!
