Living In My Van| My Honest Answers To Your Many Questions| Ep.58

[@aceboogie2984]

I love that you maintain your privacy while still being transparent and informative. Safety is everything ❤

[@Yowzers14]

My nine year old daughter and I have been binge watching your videos. Our favorite part is when you cook dinner and “eat with us” 😃. Thank you for the calm peaceful fun you bring to us 🙏🏼🫶🏼. Many blessings to you.

[@LifeinCamoMedia]

YES!! I have actually made two of her meals so far! My favorite! And I love that I feel I can relate as if she is a friend…not a KZbinr.

[@mariewilson221]

I'm a senior, I love hearing about younger people talking to God. He is the one who will be there at the end. God bless you always.

[@ruthannetalley4891]

In this crazy hate filled world, it's so refreshing to tune into your posts. You do have the best genes, such a lovely person inside and out. I'm your parent's age and I can tell you, you must make your parent's proud. You are delightful! I pray for your safety always! Keep being such a light in this dark world. You are loved ❣

[@Pr3ttyPlus]

I like how you set firm boundaries. A lot of us, especially women, could learn from you in that regard.

[@MissShan]

Thanks for making this video. I love following your channel and I like your spirit. It's nice to see a black woman doing van life and thriving. I hope that your channel continues to grow.

[@iAmPrincess]

I’m right there with you on the rats! If my house ever gets rats…the rats can have the house. I’m out! ✌🏾😆

[@terrikelley9785]

You’re a big KZbinr to me! I wait for your videos to drop! You are amazing. Thanks for being on here.

[@taraschmidheini4674]

Me too!

[@roselahue8150]

Yessss🥰

[@charlotteharris4825]

I'm a bit laid up at the moment with poor health, which hopefully improves soon, but in the meantime I wanted to tell you that more than ever I have been pouring over your videos... if someone asked me why I enjoy your videos so much what would I say...? I would say firstly your voice... your voice is so incredibly soothing, and your manner is absolutely genuine, and I love that. Also, I feel like you let us into a world that is different and really interesting, also, there's something really snug and inviting about watching you cooking and looking warm and inviting in your van with the rain coming down outside, while you tell us about the security you have and the measures you have taken to fortify your vehicle. I love it. Thank you for what you give, it's awesome. Take care of you x

[@roselahue8150]

So true 🥰🥰

[@MsBerries25]

Glad you're maintaining your privacy. People get too much into a youtuber's personal business lol

[@mariadmaldonado7979]

Girl, you'd kill it at a meet n greet. You are so relatable. ✌

[@Clothed-with-His-Glory]

Absolutely. I cherished you one vlog #1.

[@ms.v8616]

Very smart not to disclose your personal information. Very proud of you keep doing what you are doing you are very inspiring. Your are the bomb girl.

[@shelleywalker6225]

Auntie Shelley here. Now that I know that you are the youngest, I can call you 💙Baby Girl💙, a term of endearment for me. I am impressed that you share within your comfort zone but protect your privacy to maintain your safety. For the most part, your viewers offer "advice" and recommendations from a supportive place (even though you may not ask for advice) 😜. You do a great job of acknowledging what folks say, considering it but ultimately doing what you feel is best for you. I love that you talk face to face with your community even when you travel. Most of us like the driving videos and to see where you go (like the beaches and campgrounds) but you always make a point of coming back and talking to us. Thank you for your engagement with your community ......the Fam. Take care, Baby Girl, keep warm.

[@ptkt5052]

I thought that you would have been the middle child. You seem diplomatic in your actions and choices. Thank you for another great vlog!

[@amandablack1284]

I’ve watch van life folks for about a decade and you are my favorite!! No exceptions. I appreciate your authentic and unapologetic approach to life. So inspiring! THANK YOU!❤

[@juliajones2283]

I don’t know how I found your awesome channel and community but I’m so thankful that I did. I enjoy every vlog and enjoy getting to know you. Xx

[@susangoulding3159]

It's been a delight watching you grow on this channel from the get go. You deserve all the success you are gaining. Your channel is very unique and it's very you. Watching you transports me into your world and I love it. 🤗

[@toriawilliams9431]

They sell a spray called Critter Ritter at Lowes you can get to spray around your engine & underneath your van so mice or any criitter will get up underneath your van & hide When it gets cold they like to do that plus mice & squirrels like to eat wires So we spray our truck & car every sixty days We had them eat our wires actually twice .Went out to start the truck & it would not start was not the battery or nothing come to find out critters ate the wires First time cost 484 dollars 2nd time it was worse it cost over 600 dollars Critter Ritter was our life saver 😂 Hope this tip helps you we spray now every 60 days winter & summer It does not cost that much for the spray I love your channel May God continue blessing you 🙏 💘

[@CAFREE88]

I hope one day you'll be able to come to California. I'd love to sit and chat. I'm a 70 yo Black lady who admires what you're doing. I always wanted to have that freedom, kudos 👏!

[@tribbinwithneff1719]

YOU are loved and valued. You are precious cargo, handle yourself with care ❤

[@jamiepowell3036]

I’m also terrified of mice. I’m traumatized because as a child I remember a family member waking up to a mouse running across her chest. The knowledge that they will just climb over you in bed has given me serious PTSD I swear!

[@dawnmckenzie3314]

Oh lord 😮😮!!!!

[@Chandafaithfullyblessed]

Omg I have the same fear and it also comes from my childhood my mom was a traveling Nurse and we had to stay at the patient house woke up went to the restroom the next morning it was traps all over there living room 😫 it traumatized me and it never left. I felt so bad every time my kids use to ask for a small pet. A hamster no way 😂

[@tfptravel.food.peace.3788]

Oh HELL no.

[@crystalpackard4117]

Your face when you talk about mice . . . you crack me up! Thank you for sharing your journey with us 🐭

[@momdukes0111]

@Crystal Packard I actually laughed out loud when she was talking about this. Her facial expressions are too funny!!!

[@Charmy011]

Not a question just an observation.. I love how you are always respectful even when some of your viewers are not, you seem to always be in control of your emotions and that’s a good thing God Bless.

[@BayouBellePhDBe]

I just hollered…”If I have to keep this van cold all winter to avoid mice.” I don’t blame you😂😂

[@Purple_Majesty1]

You have really blossomed since your first video!!!! May your fan base continue to increase as you navigate through your new life of living by your rules. Oh, self renewal is priceless. Taking time to discover or rediscover yourself can be an enriching experience.

[@drivers805]

This is a cool video. It’s so nice to learn more about you. As an introvert, I can understand the difficulty in disclosing personal info. I’m enjoying your channel. Been subbed for a few weeks.

[@marionhogan175]

Good evening, I am so like you in regard to mice . A number of years ago I bought a plug which I leave permanently in a socket and it emits some kind of vibration which rodents hate. It has been successful so far. Hope you can get something similar to give you peace of mind. Enjoy your videos, thanks

[@dmew3960]

Hello beautiful soul! Thank you for sharing more of you! I look forward to your adventures each week. Thanks also for slowing down my world and allowing a few minutes out of that day to be guaranteed peaceful. Continued God's blessings to you🌷

[@lenorawilkins2322]

Hello dear heart!! So glad to see you, I've been busy with my granddaughter, she was in" The Lion King" play at school, I volunteered. Thank you for your transparency and we respect your right to privacy also. Enjoy your day. Be safe!! Be well!! I appreciate you. We love you.❤🙏

[@shirrajohnson-hughes6867]

Thank you for giving us a part of you. There is a calmest to you, and your skin is beautiful. Keep being you. Love, love, love, your videos, and your spirit.

[@kimberlyoneal3472]

You are one of the most positive person on this app.

[@amylynneparr1309]

Your videos have replaced the ASMR videos I have been watching for years 😊 I am absolutely fascinated by the life you live. If you have never been to Tennessee you have to visit. We moved here from the Midwest 5 years ago and I am still in awe. Spring & fall are so breathtakingly beautiful. I also heard you can stay free up to 2 weeks at a time during the off season at the state parks here.

[@AbiyahBina]

Thanks for sharing, it’s nice to hear more about you and your goals. We both are terrified of mice.

[@alucas9271]

Old enough to be your mom...I reallly enjoy both of you ladies and it's refreshing to follow both of you. You are "down to earth",not "off the chain". It has quickly become part of my routine to follow you...Thanks for sharing👍

[@vickilee2185]

You are such a love. The reason your supporters are so great is because you are such a open and honest woman. We will have you in our hearts as a friend. Have a great week and be safe. Blessings

[@ByeAlicia]

Absolutely cracked up about the mice question! It’s so funny because I feel you 100%. Pray that you never experience that!

[@gloriabass9945]

I absolutely love the direction your channel is going in, blessings. And shout out to KZbin for all of this.

[@theevolvingmindset333]

Thanks for the Q&A! I love that you protect your privacy and your energy (being being alone) and your commitment to Van Life and Blogging. I hope your journey is similar to Life with Anthony where he was able to quit 'working' the 9-5 and focus on his YT channel and traveling. Great job. I watch your vids faithfully. Stay safe out there. Until the next time 💫

[@mwright7892]

Go girl go girl go a lot of people just wish they was you and have the freedom that you have Thank God and Keep Living!!!🙏🏽❤️🥰😊🌹🌹🌻🌹🌹🌻

[@bepeaceful4797]

Hi there N I , I get the reason why you can’t share personal stuff. I just enjoy watching & listening to folks in other places sharing some of their life with really strangers. Yes some folks are critical but that’s life. It is , what it is. Enjoy , be safe, embrace peacefully

[@mwright7892]

Maybe you can look into buying a piece of property. One day you might want to be your tiny home

[@verlenapeters9410]

So nice to know God is a part of your journey! He’s my ALL in ALL!!!

[@carolbarker1329]

Thank you for sharing. Keep warm and stay safe. Keep living the dream. ❤ I can’t wait to see how your coffee maker works. Would love to share a coffee with you.

[@kimgo4518]

I respect you doing the Q&A’s for us, and good for you that you do so while still hanging tight to your personal privacy. A question that maybe you would incorporate into your dinner chat: if nomad is for life, you will probably change rigs at some point. Do you see yourself doing DIY? Van or other rig? You could style the interior easier and more importantly achieve more space where you want it to be. I actually dream of having a van with space to workout in, for days not going to the gym or hiking. One other thing: Something out of character for your introvertness - you could go to a restaurant and eat at the bar. Not to drink a lot or get picked up. But sometimes interesting and enjoyable convos happen with the patrons next to you and or the bartender, with us watching if they don’t mind. We know u like to take the food back to the rig, but it could make an interesting one time experiment. If this is a hard no, I’m good with that. Also, there are precautions against getting mice, essential oil sprays, wood pieces placed to prevent them getting thru under the hood, do a KZbin search, I’m with ya on that !See ya in your next!

[@lulub5758]

Thank you for sharing your life with us, to get to know your better.

[@islandGG]

It's Auntie Nomi time!! Hooooorayyy, you're on your way to 50K!! Hey that rhymes😊

[@lisad355]

Love how you show us through example that safety comes first in all that you do. Always look forward to your videos and newsletters.

[@marylivich7477]

Beautiful Tattoo 🙂I do not blame you for not disclosing certain information. Good to be private about certain things. I actually am inspired by you and proud of you for what you are doing

[@marylivich7477]

I talk to God to 🙂

[@marylivich7477]

Happy for you! You still have your parents Both of mine I miss everyday! In Heaven 🤍

[@marylivich7477]

We appreciate you! Bless your day!

[@lisamelanson1126]

Love all of your videos! We had those big pioneer speakers too. My brother and I use to do the same thing. As soon as our parents left the house, we turned the stero on and put it as loud as we could. It was fun lol

[@margaretoliver3278]

Hi Nomadic Introvert. I’m so happy to see that you had a video available that I could watch during my lunch break. Thank you for sharing the answers to some of the top questions you are asked. Your safety and privacy is the most important thing. I love when you share you meals with us, lol. I’m really enjoying seeing you and your channel thrive. Take care until I see you again.

[@KS-op5hb]

Smart ! Keep your info private . Plus any part of yourself you want to keep to yourself -keep it . We are just fans and supporters , but we don’t require all that you are .

[@rosieschweebie]

Prayers for continued success, and blessings to you.🙏🏾😊

[@denicoleyoung3788]

I love your channel. I wish that I could live in a van. I’m so used to home life. Continue to stay safe out there.

[@jeepsandrvs]

Cool Q&A. It might be helpful to meet more RVers. Escapees is a group of younger RVers. The RV community is made up of all types, but by and large well above average in kindness and helpfulness with a mostly laid-back approach to life. Safe Travels and Peace!

[@sandradummer4726]

I’m all for what your doing in your chose of your life. Just want you to be safe. Hugs. You always do your best and what’s right. Good for you.

[@mwright7892]

Know that your appreciated and loved; Praying God's Angels of protection be with you forever always Peace/Love / Light 🌟🌹

[@lindyworthington1651]

I hate mice too! I know they are little, but that does not matter! My daughter had a cat that she let roam outside...and she would bring a mouse or whatever to the front steps. One day she actually brought it right into the house, and it was still alive!! Talk about a lot of screaming! We used the classic broom to shoo it out- I am so thankful it was alive enough to head out by itself, but not too alive to disappear inside the house somewhere! I love listening to your videos. I love the fact that we are your dinner guests...and you always let us 'taste' the food, hehehe! I listened to the end...every last second. And I talk to God, too. Such a joy to be able to do that wherever, whenever!

[@dyoung2739]

Love that you’re protecting your privacy. Love watching your channel. Continued blessings 🙏🏽.

[@gymeni]

Yes, we grown ones know about those Pioneers! I’m the proud owner of some Bose 301s that are just a little younger than you. Love your content, stay protected and stay happy!

[@tamim.2907]

I love the idea of your using your family dinner time for Q & A’s.

[@gj6209]

I love watching your life in Michigan and when you start to travel and show us your life on the road…your channel will blow up! You have such a pleasant personality and as we watch you discover new experiences on the road….it will be so interesting! I don’t think you realize how you can be comical or entertaining with the way you respond to different things! 👍🌹😁. Keep up just being you…stay safe and enjoy life!! 🎉🌹❤️

[@ashantisamuels6835]

What does your family think of you living vanlife ? do you ever want a family of you own?

[@dogzilla1960]

Great video! If you’re afraid of rodents, get yourself some peppermint oil and spray it under the hood of your van. It keeps the rodents away but is a natural product. I just had about a thousand dollars worth of damage to my car from rodents chewing on the wires. They like the warmth of the engine, and the wires are soy based so they taste good to the little critters. You can also watch a video a it this on KZbin. Take care ❤️

[@alinac.7919]

When you said first love, I cried! Look forward to your videos, you truly are genuine.

Maintaining your privacy is so wise. People have evil intentions sometimes so better safe than sorry. It was nice to hear about your family and the one Tattoo. I have no tatoos but like hearing stories behind those that get them . Enjoy your peace and be safe !

[@honeycharles8576]

How would it make her unsafe if we knew her first name?

[@trudyhammond4953]

Safety and security first. I like that you share your lifestyle. Always do you. You seem so self satisfied and content with your choice to reside in your van. God bless you.

[@vee9542]

Pioneer speakers! Just took me back ❤

[@courtney7500]

Thank you so much for being so transparent. I am intrigued by van life, and I have thought of selling my home many times. I have always loved to travel and the idea of traveling and being home at the same time... sounds good to me.

[@tammystill8031]

Love the Q & A. You did a great job and REALLY inspire me. Take care and stay warm

[@sixpackbinky]

Mice lol I had an infestation one year, believe me, dirty has nothing to do with it on certain years, they go crazy , it was like an apocalypse, I live next to an open field…and yes, you look young, you have very nice skin., love your videos, God bless and keep you safe.

[@geraldinelapide2931]

Hi lovey lady. Love answers to people's questions. You seem very happy at what you do. Love watching your channel...stay safe.

[@catbertie27]

I admittedly "look" for you when out & about in western Michigan - glad to hear it's okay to say "hey" should our plans cross. I really enjoy all the content and am learning with you should I consider the lifestyle in the future.

[@bohija]

Thanks for the Q and A , I love watching you and your experiences with the van. I live through you as I can never do what you are doing, so for now I get pleasure from watching you.

[@user-gm8mf8zo3k]

You draw in good people because you are a good person. Welcome neighbor.😊

I love that you answer questions without rambling on and on and repeating yourself like many others I follow. Short and to the point. I like your style. Happy holidays to you. Be blessed.

[@joyandpeace6885]

I love your channel! I had to go back and hear your age again. I thought you were in your 20’s like my daughters. You have very good genes😊. Your voice is so relaxing to hear. Take care and stay safe😊🙏🏽

[@marloulman104]

I identify about mice!! I can't even watch cartoons with mice! I have a real fear of them. A few yrs ago there was an awful smell in my vehicle, especially when I put heat on. Mechanic said mice got under hood to stay warm, & urinated on air filter. Had to have everything sanitized. Mechanic suggested keeping bar of Irish spring soap in glove box and trunk. Smells good & works! I keep a box in our closets, kitchen floor cabinets, bathroom cabinets, etc. Open both ends of box,& change like every 4 mths. Used to have a storage unit & put boxes of irish spring in each corner of unit. Keep talking to God! Stay safe & be blessed!

[@moi2995]

Pioneer Speakers right here sis!!! 🙋🏾‍♀️ 80’s baby!

[@kneenee71]

I’ve been a silent watcher of your channel for a couple of weeks now. I enjoy the videos and it makes me wanna consider getting a van just for Travel to get away sometimes. One question that I have is how do your family feel about your van lifestyle? And have any of them ever considered traveling with you?

[@Wrightrenee012]

I really enjoy every video. I look for new ones everyday! I love how you are with privacy. I still wish I could do what you do. Again it’s so important to me to watch how you deal with every up and downs that comes your way. I have learned a lot watching. Thank you again for your video’s 😊❤

[@sharonhague9580]

Be prepared for this weekend supposed to be the coldest since February!! Stay Warm and Stay Safe ❤️

[@shannonc7896]

Yes, please stay warm and safe 💜

[@jarmelarosa1297]

I love watching your videos. I try very hard not to miss one. I’m from Brooklyn nyc and my best advice is to plan ahead on where your going to stay. We are the city that never sleeps. Finding parking that’s available is hard. So please plan ahead. Look forward to you posting a video from anywhere in the 5 boroughs when you get to New York. That’s if you don’t plan on coming to the city and want to be upstate instead. See ya in March 2023 video.

[@RitaPsych1]

It’s nice to hear about you. I think it’s smart to protect your privacy. Thanks for sharing all this info.

[@Oracabessa562]

I’ve listened to you and watched your videos for about a month or so and decided to subscribe to your channel. I think that you’re a smart young lady and hope that you find everything you’re wanting and more out of life as you live each day to the fullest. May God continue to bless and watch over you each day. Peace and Love always❤

[@ericaF79]

Thank you for sharing some more about yourself. I would have thought you were an only child. I'm curious to know how your parents feel about you living the van life.....aside from the fact that I'm sure they worry about you. I never had a skin care routine either, I just used Dove and lotion and I always got compliments on my skin and always heard I didn't lock my age. A few years ago, I started a routine and now I feel like my skin isn't as good and I now look my age, lol. I'm a born and raised NYer, if possible don't come in Marxh... it's still cold and at times it still snows. May would be a better choice, it'll be nicer out for you to explore and enjoy. Anyway, glad to hear that your channel is doing so well. Love your vlogs

[@paulapogmore102]

Thank you for this.

[@thejournalnook]

I went to the Caravan and Motorhome show here in the U.K. last month and it was so awesome to see all the vans! I’m going again in Feb 😂 I’m excited to see your travels to New York 🎉 hope you’re keeping warm 😊

[@scratcherscratcher11]

Love your videos! Just something different and free!!! Keep making your videos!!
