Big Sur & Beyond - 5 Days on the California Coast
Big Sur and the California Coast are some of the most magical places in the USA! Road trip with us through Santa Barbara, Morro Bay, San Fransisco, and the legendary BIG SUR. We hit up McWay Falls, Bixby Bridge, Pfeiffer Beach, and so much more in the video. Starting in Malibu and making our way up the California Coast until we reach our final destination, San Fransisco! Big Sur is famous for a reason and we think it has to be one of the best scenic drives in the entire world WOOT WOOT

Kalah this made us so happy you have no idea!! Manifesting great things right back at you too! Let's make this year epic WOOT WOOT
They must've loved your great comment!
I love ❤️ all this beautiful 🤩 places Big Sur number one ☝️
SO Glad you hit up the dark side of the Spanish/Catholic missions! This country has swept it under the rug for too long! Kudos to ya!!!
Those days everyone who came to a New place tried to make the locals join their beliefs. Every religion did that. Muslims did that, Buddhists did that, Hindus did that and so did catholics Some still do. Nothing extra ordinary. You all try to make it sound like it’s only Catholics who did that.
I agree "California coast is unbelievably beautiful " .great video and vibes!!
Thanks so much!!
My husband and I just recently found your channel and we are addicted. We love your meals and wonder have you thought about putting together a cook book. We are loving you guys. Also, Ana, your skin is amazing. Are you able to share your secret. Sun, sand and water all take their toll on hair and body. Really, really beautiful channel. We are recommending it to everyone. We grew up in California and moved to Oregon in 2000. The coast rocks.
Patricia this comment made us both so happy! First of all thanks for watching our videos and telling others about them WOOT WOOT ♥️ I keep telling Ana she NEEDS to make a cookbook!! Haha I really think she will one day. Ana is Serbian and Lebanese so that’s where her nice skin comes from! Thanks again and let’s keep adventuring
Highway num1 load trip is my bucketlist!! Thanks for nice videos
Done this trip some years back. Certainly recommended. Rog. Pacific sunset records
Your drone footage is superb! The angles, color, everything! Thank you!
Thanks so much!! It really means a ton because we love our drone so much. It’s like our little baby 😂
@@ian.and.ana. haha, I know the feeling 🙂
Ana and Ian, mark my words, you wonderful people are going to be big. Your contents are beyond great. I can tell you put a lot of time, and energy into your videos. Just discovered you, and already watched most of your vlogs. Woot Woot.....Soon you will be in the million subscribers. Don't forget me when you are big stars, I mean you are already big stars. Beautiful, young, and environmently concious.

Ian and Ana - just watched all your road trip videos over the past week or so. Thank you so much for creating this incredible content! Seeing your adventure (all the highs and lows), the amazing sites, the great food, and the love the two of you shared along the way has left me incredibly eager to get out and explore this great country again very soon! Wishing both of you nothing but the best and can't wait to see what the future has in store for the two of you!
Aww I'm sad to see the west coast trip end! Now it's time to do an east coast trip!
Hahaha great idea!! For right now i think the plan is Florida and then Texas!
Love the videos. Great trip. Back to Cleveland...saddest moment!
Very sad moment!!! Gosh that was a crazy adventure and glad we could share it with all you WOOTERS
There is soooo much beauty along the Central Coast of California. Glad you had an opportunity to see what some of us Northern California folk may take for granted. You are right about Morro Bay, as I was fortunate to attend college at Cal Poly - San Luis Obispo, and routinely enjoyed the beaches of Morro Bay, Pismo Beach, and Avila Beach. Pismo Beach seems to be the "start" of your Southern California beach terrain, with the wide swaths of beach, flat, and not as many rock formations in the ocean, whereas just north of Pismo, starting at Avila Beach, is where you get in to the typical "rocky" terrain of Northern California beaches.
Love your energy and all the Cali coast tips!
On spring the mountains are full of rainbow colors. On McWay falls, there is a great hike towards the mountain and a waterfall to take a swim.
Absolutely love watching y’all. Sending good vibes!
Aww thanks Anna!! Sending good vibes right back atchya WOOT WOOT. Excited to keep bringing you along on our crazy adventures
You are such an inspiration!
Our hearts are so full after reading this comment! You guys are gonna have the time of your lives and we can't wait to hear how you like it. Yes we would love to visit Romania

How was the In-N-Out burger? LOL, I was like...what, no verdict? Great trip! Planning to go from San Fran to L.A. so can't wait to check out Big Sur!
Big Sur section on Pacific Coast Highway is the best. I travelled through this area on my bike tour last month. Amazing views. 👍🙂

Bixby Bridge, wow, beautiful
I am heading on a road tip soon to California/NV and Utah and have been looking at videos and vlogs for inspiration and by far you're one of the best ones I've seen. Everything from your energy on camera, and informative yet fun content to your videography and editing is flawless! Keep up the good work and I look forward to watching more of your videos as I get psyched for my future travels too!
Great work y'all, just saying hey from Texas. Don't know how you guys don't have a million subscribers already!
This looks beautiful😍 I have road trip through US and Europe on our bucket list in the future ❤🚘
Excited for you guys!! Europe road trip sounds epic so maybe we will see you there 😉
We were at Bixby two weeks ago. Sunset was beautiful.
NorCal was the last trip I took via plane prior to the pandemic. You guys have fantastic cinematography and editing! I’ve been to nearly all of the places you’ve visited on your multi-month road trip, but never in one go! It’s bringing back some great memories and I can’t wait to travel out of state again later this year. Can’t wait to see what you guys have in store next!
Aww I'm so sad the trip is over. But I can't wait till the next one!!
Loved watching this adventure! Can’t wait for Florida vlogs 🏝
Thanks so much Gayathri! We loved sharing these adventures with all of you. Florida here we come 🤪
Wow beautiful just beautiful 🤩
Happy we could bring you along on that adventure!
It's so cool that so many people come to my area to see things you guys should come here during car week some time!
You are a very lucky guy Joseph! That area is just gorgeous and we miss it so much. We need to make our way back out there ASAP
@@ian.and.ana. ya I kinda hit the jackpot lol glad my family is here! People like you are always welcome here!
Thanks guys you did great
Great video as always!
Thanks so much Brian!!
Sad to see this adventure end so you're going to have to do a new one, SOON! Love you guys & your channel. I agree with another poster, Ana needs to do a cook book. Chow
Awww Anissa this comment pumped us up! Florida road trip coming right up haha! I keep telling Ana needs a cookbook. I eat her food all the time and I’m like WHAAAAAAT! Thanks Anissa
Y’all inspire me to keep creating content every day, I fucking love you guys. Hope you see this
Awesome video thanks for sharing, heading down that way this weekend from Oregon for 2 weeks
Have so much fun!! It’s about to be epic
Awesome video as always 👍👍
Thanks so much!!
On behalf of my fellow Oregonians, I apologize for the sad clam chowder
Haha Nick no worries! We only tried one place so you can’t judge a whole state on one clam chowder. Just means we need to visit again and try more!
@@ian.and.ana. Port Orford had a great bowl of clam chowder (won some Oregon state award one year).
Cali beautyful
Right!! It’s crazy
Hello Ian and Anna, Hello to All 😊
STRIDER!! What’s up
Welcome to Norcal!
Just started watching you guys and love your content! AND that you're in Cleveland 👊 Us too! Not sure if it's weird, but we'd love to meet up sometime when you're home 😊 Trying to figure out where you're going next because I'm watching out of order 😂 Keep it coming! Thanks!
Hey Guys, Like your videos. Keep doing good work. Thanks
Thank you so much!
I love all your videos best of luck both if you 😍
Awww thank you so much!!
Ana and Ian this was incredible and almost borderline emotional ! I can’t wait for the future adventures and vlogs from both of you thnx for making content that is uplifting and helpful. You guys rock!!!
You are making us cry too!! Gosh that was an adventure of a lifetime and so happy we could bring all you WOOTERS along with us! Here’s to new adventures!!
love how concise this video is! what drone do you use?
love the videos just bought a jeep planning on going on van life next summer
You are gonna have an epic time
You guys should know how good you are at this.
What’s up Ryan! You seriously have no idea how much this meant to us. It was a crazy epic road trip but gathering all this footage and information takes a ton of effort. Thanks so much for noticing WOOT WOOT!
I look forward to these vlogs more than any other atm
The best clam chowder in California is in Pismo Beach at splash cafe
Your videos is realy great,really like 😊😊😊💛💛💛💓💓💓👋👋👋👋
i did the same trip in reverse from San Francisco to San Diego like you one day in the big sur but we had 3 days in Santa Barbara best city on the road trip. like Harry ill love to live there
Couldn't agree more! SB is just unbeatable but we also heard great things about San Diego
Great video ! Thank you ! What month did you do this ?
You mentioned Pismo Beach? Did you make it there? Great video by the way 😃
I am from Cleveland !
Hey guys you have really inspired me and my girlfriend to do this trip. We are driving from MA to Cali, we can't wait to go. Your videos are sick and awesome. We were wondering what drone are you guys using, what is it called? We are thinking about purchasing one.
Yahoo!!! When u said u'll be returning to Southeast Asia, make sure to visit my hometown Miri. It is the state of Sarawak where u tour in Kuching😁. But after this DAMN pandemic is over
Did you see the zebras? You can usually see them from the 1 grazing just off the road near hearst castle.
We didn’t see them! Read up on the Hearst castle and thought it was insane that there were zebras
Hey guys we are headed to Big Sur for the summer and I have to ask, it looks like you got a-lot of great drone footage and I was just wondering what drone you are flying and was it mostly allowed without any local ordinance issues? Thanks so much.
I loved driving highway 1 but really need to go back! Definitely don’t drive it in august. All you’ll see is fog 😪
That's a great thing to know about August!! Hope it helps future viewers heading that way Thanks WOOT WOOT
Best time for coast weather is September and October. June is gloom....foggy
route 1 is now partially closed so you cant do this now. you have to take route 101 and backtrack which sucks because I was going to do this in May but I don't think the road will be open so I'll have to do the backtracking
Although I'm from Indonesia, for me California is the most dream state that I really want to live in if I want to live abroad
Awesome videos! What kind of camera and lens do y’all use?
All the products we use are linked on our Amazon storefront: www.amazon.com/shop/theotherside?isVisitor=true
way cooler skatepark in cayucos! should check that one out
Hi guys, would you please tell more about the car you drove during this trip? TIA 😍
Amazing drone shots. I have mini 2 and just curious if i can fly this miniature on big sur coast line. Anyone having any input on this . Really appreciated . On other side , which drone are you using on your amazing trips.
We use the Mavic Air 2
santa barbara is the best, did you guys goto butterfly beach?
You mentioned that you guys went in November..the weather looks pretty good..!? Would you recommend December? Or is it too cold? More like the end of December lol
I was hoping y’all were going to show us around SF 😒😢
Hi ❤️
where did you get your dress from it’s sooo pretty?
Awww thanks so much! We have everyone linked to our Amazon storefront: www.amazon.com/shop/theotherside
Can you share the place you slept along the way
How did you miss all the homeless tents? From other CA videos, they are ubiquitous.
Is October or November good for visibility (fog)?
How do you find all these free camping sites and trails to know where your going ?
Campendium!!
Where do you sleep on these trips?? Side of PCH? Looking for some tips 🙃
They said in previous videos you can DM them in Instagram about free parking spots :)
Awesome trip! Bixby is so beautiful and looks scary! Cant believe y’all made it all the way to SF!
Still can't believe we did it either haha
What drone do you guys use?
We use a Mavic Air 2!
what happened to Carmel and Monterey? Ano Nuevo? Santa Cruz? sigh
man if you guys thought that chowder was good you should have tried the Splash Cafe in Pismo
We actually looked up best chowder on the coast and that places popped up but we already passed pismo! We need to head back and compare
Is the big sur landslide already fixed? I thought freeway 1 was closed because of it. 🤔
I think it’s closed south of Big Sur
Back to Cleveland?
Yes both Ana and I are from Cleveland, Ohio!
Sorry, new at this....where is the link fir the Cali case? All I see are comments.
You can head to calicase.com
use one wheel in a section, the skate is worn out, now a personal electric vehicle with a single wheel between two legs and a pedal on the side, I strongly recommend you to my group of five thousand people for your information 💓💯🙏👍
