Why did I start a YouTube Channel? Advice from a YouTuber
Collab!! Start 2018 off right! youtu.be/RxyKPTm9uYs
Today, Mike and I work with other YouTubers to form a collab and answer some common questions people have when considering starting a YouTube Channel. Find out why I started a YouTube channel and get some tips on how to start your own! There is a lot of great advice from this YouTuber collab, so dive right in!
You may want to come back to re-watch some of these tips, hit the thumbs up to have this video added to your "liked videos" playlist, or you can save this video to a playlist on your own channel so you can find it easier later!
We are family adventure vloggers, and strive to just get out there and do fun things with our family. A lot of times we will base our adventures from a campsite and stay in our trusty camper, Hazel. We often will have extra kiddos along, hence the "gang." Please subscribe if you would like to join us on our adventures!

![Kayaking at Lake Moomaw in Virginia - pt 1
Em and the Gang head out for some kayaking on Lake Moomaw in Virginia this week! We head to the far far western reaches of the Virginia mountains to have a little adventure. This is part one of two, we just couldnt possibly fit all of the fun into one video. So please make sure if you havent hit that subscribe button to go ahead and do it now so youll know when the next video comes out!
Some of the footage in this video comes from Andersons kayak with the EKEN 4K video camera mounted to the front, and some comes just from Ems phone camera. We were NOT about to take our nicer Panasonic Lumix camera out on the lake.
