      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.

    Love your content. I sleep in parking garages too..No one cares to be honest. I usually cook my food and get my night time routine done before I go find a place to sleep so I'm just sleeping when I pull in. I hate trying to cook in my truck and be stealthy. I go to city parks to make my meals so I can have all the doors open and windows ..Cooking food in my truck gets all kinds of smells after awhile ..boo...but love ya!

    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!!
    Note: I purchased rain guards from Subaru (not Weathertech).

    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.

Your videos are more personal, like the viewers are your friends and you are just having a conversation with them.

      I have these covers, they are made to go either way. The trick is they need to be flat and you just don’t turn them around you have to place them on the opposite window to change it from silver to black. The black is handy during the winter to absorb the sun's rays to keep the vehicle warm.

    Hi Nomi, you probably get tired of so many ppl giving you suggestions...I can only imagine! That said... I'm about to leave you a suggestion, Lol! Please forgive me! But think it might be a good one to help w your stealth. I noticed that the windows on your stealthmobile don't have rain guards. If you put rain guards on, no one can see your cracked windows, and it's not as easy for someone to try to break in through the cracked window (with something, a wire coat hanger etc, to try to pop the locks open from tbe inside) I put them on my little SUV and it works like a charm with hiding my cracked windows.Bought a set from Amazon. Happy and safe travels. Best to you, T
