Hey guys, I don’t use Telegram, that is a spam/bot commenter. Please report that account!

[@KimberlyLetsGo]

There have been a huge amount of these types of comments on lots of different channels. Hopefully, everyone knows better.

[@kirkmo1666]

Hope levels were really high 😕 🙂. It was taken down before I could report.

[@cynthiabayly5402]

OMG what did I miss - I am not so internet savvy yet - whatever it was looks like gone ? But I wouldnt have a clue ` I usually only respond in a comment to you and Pippa

[@artistgrly]

Hi. I'm a new subbie. You are my hero. I have always wanted to live in a car or RV but have never been single long enough to make it happen... YET!! I still plan to do it someday as it is my dream! Thanks for sharing all your wisdom and joy!! Hugs to Pippa too!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@KimberlyLetsGo]

@@cynthiabayly5402 Trolls/Scammers reply to your post posing as the person who made the video. They say you have won something and want you to WhatsApp them back for info. If you look closely, you'll see that their user name is only similar to the creator's. It's ALWAYS a scam!!! I also get comments on my posts from some middle-aged white guy saying something like 'Hey, beautiful! Have a great day!' or something along that. Again, a scammer thinking I'm a lonely heart ready to hand over my life savings thinking it's love. LOL I watch too much Dr Phill to fall for that crap. ;)

[@SydHalley]

I seriously teared up hearing you talk about the sweet relationship you have with Pippa. Love love our canine family members!

[@BrookeandPippa]

She’s my babe!

[@lynnseiber9216]

I admire your taking such a huge leap of faith to take your Best Friend on such a life changing journey. Negative people are simply unhappy they have no ability to break free of their own cage!! Keep it up Brooke and hug Pippa for me.

[@valerief1231]

Perfectly said 🌼

[@akastardust]

You're one of the most chill, pleasant people I have watched on KZbin. Appreciate you, and Pippa!

[@valerief1231]

I could live this way so easily, being alone is far different than being lonely isn’t it? 🌼

[@Lastdayone]

I am no contact with my family as well. Best decision I’ve made. I’ve grown so much! When I moved into my car I felt so much peace. It’s not easy but it’s certainly possible. Thanks for sharing!

[@valerief1231]

We are her family now, except the toxic trolls, they live under the bridge 😂 I hope Brooke can feel the loving energy we have for her, and that it always out weighs the negative people. They truly are attention seekers, that haven’t discovered it is within themselves. 🌼

[@Lastdayone]

@@valerief1231 so very true 💜✨

[@shirleymason7697]

Also, about keeping close to family….. my mother was a mean narcissistic woman. And I left home at 19 and felt happier when away from her. At 87 now, looking back, what I did was the correct move. When I think back at some of the things she said or did, I’m amazed and appalled. We don’t have to be close to those people (parents) who are toxic to us.

[@cml8755]

I love your honesty yet boundaries at the same time. I love your common sense! What a great role model! I also really enjoy the way you explain things. Thank you!

[@stevesobiech2626]

I believe ‘haters’ must be jealous or they have a crappy life. You are brave girl living the life you are. Stay safe

[@lesliesshopofcuriositieswo2092]

Some like being trolls just to spread chaos.

I love how Pippa is just sprawled out. Fast asleep. Chill. Her arm moved a bit, but other than that, she doesn’t care! So sweet 🥹

[@annemarie5240]

Brooke, this was another great video! I’m probably twice your age, married, and settled down, but I really enjoy your channel. Congrats on 44K! I’m so glad that you and Pippa found each other❤️ You are so wise for such a young person - many of your answers were good life advice for anyone. Keep sharing your beautiful smile and energy - the world needs more people like you.

[@triciap455]

I think nomads in general are pretty independent and don't really care what others, including family, think of their lifestyle. I love the info you share with us. Thanks for being YOU. God has given us a gift in you, Brooke. Keep being you!

[@valerief1231]

This comment hit me right in the feels! I agree with you so much! 🌼

[@sheisasurvivor8479]

We love watching you! I feel like we’re living vicariously through you. I’m a single working full time mom of 3. I watch you usually around 8pm eastern time. I can tell that you guys work really hard too but also have time to relax and enjoy life too.

You have achieved so much success and have built a loyal following! I'm so excited and proud for you! Pippa is such a Sweetheart! I look forward to any new videos. Keep up the good work! 👍 🌞

It’s hard to fathom anyone taking issue or being mean to Brooke, I will never understand people like that.

[@cherylhuger8447]

Thank you for all your inspiration. I am in a committed relationship but if I find myself alone in the future....I will become a car nomad. You are an awesome Momma for Pippa.

The best conversation Brooke!! I love your honesty answers! You and Papa are the soulmate for each other😊💪!!!!

[@morpheuszzz662]

Brooke, your channel just popped up on my feed within the past couple days. I am so impressed by your philosophy about life and your honesty and transparency about how you "navigate" the world with your sweet pup. From what I've seen so far, I already feel like "I wish I could be her friend". I'm quite a bit older than you (in my early 50s) but I see in you what I have in a couple of my life-long friends whom, even if we don't see each other for years, we can pick up where we left off like it was yesterday. You give off "a friend you can trust" kind of vibe. Thanks for all the work you do. I wish you the very best and hope you have Pippa for a long, long time.

[@LeilanisJourney]

Congrats on all your new subscribers. I have been with you for a quite a while and love your videos. You are so good about trying to teach us about the nomad life and being honest with us. I am 66 years old and hope to start my travels next year. Thank you for always answering our questions. Also love watching you talk about Pippa...priceless! Pippa is a doll.

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Your channel made it into a good algorithm. I didn't find it until about 2 weeks ago when it came up in my recommended. I was watching van life videos & up pops you! I'm happy for your success:) I subbed because I like your honest, no bull-sh** personality, ha ha😊 Stay safe & well. Hugs to Pippa🤗

[@dianegeller5250]

I have been watching your videos for the past couple of weeks & I am hooked! Love you & Pippa. Haters will hate but most of us love you & appreciate you!

[@erinmorrow5001]

Thank you for sharing your journey with us! You are not only beautiful and brave, but a real pioneer....you are just amazing. Pippa is lucky to have you as a Mom.

[@tammytanner5682]

You are not abusing your dog. She is happy and content. The individual (s), probably have never had emotional ties to an animal. I enjoy your honesty . keep serving and living!

[@sharonharrison3611]

I think you are a very brave and beautiful young lady. Obviously you have been through a lot. I'm much older than you, but I can relate on the aspect of having a rescue dog, who actually rescued me from depression and heartbreak of losing my son. My dog Rhino was my little hero and angel. He was with me through some very tough times. Sadly I lost him two years ago. I've been so heartbroken and lonely without his sweet presence. God bless you with everything good and much happiness with your sweet little companion. 🙏❤️

[@michelleglidingswan4334]

I really admire how well you know yourself and what works for you. Such an inspiration!

[@JS-do7ux]

Thank you for being so transparent about your family. It’s not always easy. I appreciate your honesty.

[@becka8345]

People like you, being open and honest about the way they live as a nomad.. is such a invaluable resource for so many that are considering/being forced into the same lifestyle. I'm so blessed to be in a roommate situation with my closest friends.. but that ends in a little over a year, and I'm gearing up/preparing to purchase a teardrop and move into it full time. Your content about boondocking/dry camping is helping me a lot with research, and I seriously appreciate it!

Love your channel! It’s refreshing how straightforward you are. You can really tell that you and Pippa are 100% together in this journey.

[@pman2916]

I like that your honest about answering the same questions. I've watched a few influencers who answer the same questions or touch on them. I struggle to sit through these videos because they answer them over and over. Although I'm new, I'm ok to just pick up on getting to know you on whatever is the latest video. If I want to know more then I'll go through your older videos. Thank you for sharing your life🙏

I would love to be doing what you are. I’m 75 now and a lot of my life was spent back packing so I can do things on a small scale. Having a nice bed like you do would be such a luxury. It’s probably too late to live your dream for me but I’m happy you are❤️

There! I’ve been lurking in the woods of Wisconsin watching your videos for a few days, after these last two I’ve subscribed, liked and commented, plus ordered the jump-starter through your Amazon link. Your following is due to your frank and honest conversations with us and all the helpful tips so that we can be more successful at 24/7 camping ourselves. Thank you and give Pippa a good hip scratch for me.

[@staynyourlane422]

I can't imagine negative comments on your videos! You are a wonderful spoken young lady traveling while spending time with people and mostly your Pippa!

[@ontheflysoon3113]

I love your channel Brooke! Like you said there are a lot of awful people out there, which is sad! Like they say if you don’t have something nice to say don’t say anything. What you do etc, is your business. And you can tell you really care about Pippa! And she seems like a great travel companion! I wish you all the best and Happy and Safe travels! 😊 Congrats on your channel growth ! And Pippa is adorable.🐶

[@ritatharp5238]

Thank you for sharing. I loved my mother so MUCH, she was very strict and had a lot of rules but it helped me to learn to make really good choices. As an adult she became my best friend and I could talk to her about everything. I feel I was so lucky and so so blessed to have her.

We live in a rude & ignorant world that unleash rude & ignorant ppl that feel they are entitled to impose their opinion on your lifestyle + bcuz they are jealous & insecure knocking ppl down gives them false superiority. You get more positive encouragement than negative trolls. Brooke I see you as resilient, free spirited, independent, bubbly yet straight forward personality that draws ppl to you, grounded, beautiful inside & out a kind soul. You define your life. Don’t let others write your script. What matters is that your comfortable with it. Keep doing what makes you & Pippa happy!🥰 we support you in your adventurous lifestyle. You go girl! do young ppl still say that? Lol

I'm way too old for it now so I just enjoy watching and cheering you on. Stay safe and have fun kiddo. Give Pippa an extra hug.

[@amrose250]

I took out the middle row of seats in my Honda Pilot and have a similar setup to yours. I only occasionally camp as I have other obligations but I enjoy seeing your adventures and it makes me look forward to my own next adventure. Keep on trucking and who knows, maybe our paths will cross one day.

[@annebender]

This makes me so happy. I am not at a place to live like this, but it has been my dream to do so. Whenever I would tell people they assume I want an rv, but I always thought I would live in my vehicle at some point in time. My husband isn’t for car living, but he is for pickup truck camping and that’s a start. Thank you for sharing your experiences and gained knowledge.

[@Tocabocadaughter]

Awwww, so sorry to hear y’all had that traumatic experience and you’re right about it happening anywhere! Our dog was on a walk, on a leach, and this persons dog came out of nowhere and jumped and bit our dog. Both my sisters were hitting it and trying to pry the mouth open while the owner simply stood there and yelled. Our pit bull refused to go out for weeks after that and thinking about it still makes my sister cry. You’ll both get through it! Sending hugs!

[@teacup_6984]

Gee - Pippa was really chill for this one!! Good info, good video. I just retired - Hubs & I have a Class C that we use to go to different campgrounds about one week a month. I think if I were on my own, I'd do the Vanlife. At my age (64) - I've gotta have some kind of bathroom on board. I enjoy seeing how you do things to apply to our situation. Loving your channel!!

I can’t figure out what anyone could find to be negative about someone choosing to live on the road! If someone is making their own money and paying their own way and not living off the government and being happy doing it, why is it anyone else’s business, especially their negative opinions? I admire you and have been considering a similar lifestyle in the future. I’m gathering information from you and other nomads! Thank you for doing such helpful content. Keep enjoying your chosen lifestyle!

Have you thought about taking the information you have acquired in living the nomad lifestyle and putting it in book form...like a 'Free Camping Guide' for the areas you are familiar with. Self publishing is so easy now...it could also provide additional income for you. It also sounds like your 'life story' would make a wonderful inspiring book as well. Best wishes to you and Pippa!
