      She really has, several times. Her channel is easy to follow, the playlist is there and the episodes are numbered. I started following when she was still working, but for the people that are really interested or curious about van life and/or Nomi, it's worth it to start at the beginning.

    PRO TIP ....if you need to use ice, get a dry bag put all your food in it before putting ice in. The, just throw the whole bag of ice on top ... in the bag. it will stay longer and your food won't have a risk of leaking in the packaging. 👍

    Hi Naomi, I have a 2010 Pearl Forester with 63k+ miles. I absolutely love it. Dealership keeps trying to get me to trade up. Just a suggestion; try getting rain guards; they just have 3M stickers for application. I installed myself. They will provide air without rain entering your space be it parked or driving. Good luck with your new home!!

    I bought WeatherTech window coverings for my vehicle 2 years ago. I love them. I bought the kit for the whole vehicle. I have an suv. They fit great on all windows - at night there is no light coming in the vehicle. ❤

    Not sure why but this brings me anxiety. I watched you for a very very long time. I love seeing you in your RV and all the travels that you had for some reason maybe it’s claustrophobia that you’re in the back of a SUV. I’ll hang in there watching you, but I don’t mind telling you. It really gives me anxiety lol.

    Hello Nomi... FYI: It's a good idea to rinse the rice several times to remove some of the starch prior to cooking. Starches convert to sugar which can lead to diabetes.

    The covers you have on the silver side in switch windows as you probably have them on the wrong windows. Weather tech products are very precise about how their stuff fits. if they don't fit after you switch windows then call customer service and let them know you're having issues with the fit.

    Another suggestion for the window covers put some thin black strips of tape around the edge of each side and back winndow, almost like a picture frame, so when you put your shades up they will block your cracks of light showing through the windows 👌👍🤓

      I made my own, no sewing required. First I made a template of my windows using brown craft paper, then cut those shapes out of 1" memory foam, just a tiny bit better; but not much. Covered one side with pieces cut from thermal black out curtains and Reglectix on the other side. Fit perfect.
