I almost deleted this video. I felt like it was boring because of no adventure, but I wanted to show you what my life is like On the road. A lot of times it’s not adventurous. It’s just mundane and of course relaxing at times. I know these videos are not very popular. But this is the reality of my life. Most times, which is preparing for something.
I would rather see the reality of your life than something that is not true. Too many people are getting into van life because they think is always an adventure and that is simply not the truth
@@empress2500trust, I have plenty of mundane days on this channel. I don’t sugar coat anything. What you see is what you get. I show the good, bad, ups and lots of downs. I knew what I was getting into when I decided to live on the road. I knew it wasn’t going to be easy. I show all that in my videos. I live on the road because I want to. Not because it’s popular or trending. I’ve been living on the road for two years now. I just wasn’t feeling this video, but decided to post it anyways. Thanks for watching.
All of your videos are awesome, Nomi. I love how you show how you prepare for your adventures. It gives backstory and most creators don’t do that so kudos to you!
I've never done that. Never even thought about breaking in my hiking boots. Probably because I've never hiked longer than 5 to 7 miles round trip. If I want to walk longer, I'll definitely break the next pair in. Thx 👍🏾
There’s something so relaxing yet entertaining about your videos. No matter what you’re doing you edit and format your videos in a way that keeps attention.
Same. I've been silently following this channel since the beginning. Of all the van life channels out there, and I'm not intentionally denigrating anyone, but Nomi does it right.
Just a suggestion....put the tire on the back. I'm 5" 1' tall, I can't imagine trying to wrestle a full size tire off the roof. I drive a subaru too. I ❤ my Subie
Last night before bedtime, I went to your channel to see if you uploaded anything. Noooo don’t delete. We appreciate your videos. I’m at the doctors office now watching your video We appreciate you……
I had a tire on top and it made so much noise from wind hitting it and bouncing around on bumpy roads. Also, you have to be able to house it off the roof. Go with the back my friend.
I stumbled across your videos and now I’m hooked. Wee hours of the morning, My husband be like what are you up watching babe 😂. I love that you keep God as the head of your life and read your word. Keep your eyes on Jesus ❤️
Don't forget your hicking stick.....ALWAYS ,it may save you in the future.... be it snake, wild animals. ... you MUST take your stick everytime you do hiking
Hey next time you are at REI check out the Outdoor Afro line. That's my cousin's brand. Her clothes are Amazing! She's an Avid hiker as well. And her clothing is perfect for what you are looking for. Great video as always ❤
Put the tire on the back! And get a bike rack and your bike on top. I’m sure there are places that you would love to bike!! Love your. Ideas, no matter what you are doing!!!
Life is like that sometimes. You're not our entertainment, you're informing us of life on the road. I appreciate you allowing us to see the world through your eyes.
I love this kind of video too. It doesn’t have to be ALL big adventures. You are going to be SO happy with your Patagonia rain jacket. I had the jacket and pants like that from Patagonia. I wore it on a sailing trip in British Columbia where it was COLD. One time when getting off the boat to go hiking, I fell into the ocean. I went ahead and went hiking soaking wet. That Patagonia gear kept my body heat in; even though the layers under it were soaking wet, I was toasty warm! I have been a loyal Patagonia fan ever since! Congratulations on your great purchases.
I think I would put the tire on the back. Just me personally, the last thing I want to do is climb on the roof to get a tire when I already have a flat. Also, you rarely see a tire on the roof, seems more stealth on the back. Wishing you safe travels!
I love YTer behind the scenes content, NoMi. It helps me learn about this lifestyle and the rhythms and variations. Thanks for sharing about the jackets and Dude Wipes. The spaghetti looked yummy! It was great to see you wake up looking so well rested and happy. Bright blessings. 💖
Agreed. If it can go on the back I hope that’s where she decided to put it. I thought she mentioned on the back as an option too. I’m halfway through the video.
Nomi your videos have a comforting energy, missed you with your van at first but I see your making your subaru more comfortable. Keep doing your thing❤
My sister Bonnie “put me on” to your posts and I love following you. But, now, I have to have a marathon day catching up with you and your journey! God bless!
Thank you for sharing your journey and adventures with us! It’s so much fun to come along - also, you might want to consider keeping your new hiking shoes in the front seat with you and wearing them every now and then so they are well broken into when it’s time to take them on a true hike! :)
I love your new abode. You always are so organized and I love watching you cooking and cleaning. It is so inspiring. You are a very good role model to follow.
Looking forward to your next adventure and be careful doing whatever it is! I am really struggling with health issues and when I see I have a new video of you, it brings a much needed smile on my face. Love you, Nomi!
Glad you didn’t delete the video. I love the routine day to day stuff too! You cracked me up when you said you “slept in” and then said it was 7:56 a.m.😂😂 Be safe Nomi🙏🏾
That pasta looks amazing Nomi! And never delete…..we love all of your content, even the simple stuff. Loved the new jackets, I need to check those out!
Hey Nomi...I'm checking out your video a little bit later but, I am loving your attitude in it! You seem really upbeat and motivated, that is a good thing. As Always...Safe Travels.💕💞
Nomi!!! You have an awesome "GIFTS" that only God can give!!!! They are the Gitts of "Contentment & Gratitude" which give you Peace to adjust in "every" situation of life. God Bless!!!!
Hello I’m glad you don’t delete the video i really like i love old you videos so entertaining you’re really nice person god bless ❤ and the spaghetti looks so delicious
Thank you for sharing a magnificent life, and thanks for always sharing the first bite! Enjoy your meal and so excited for the route to Alaska. Will be starting my journey north soon too!
🎉🎉❤❤ thank you for sharing. Everything looks beautiful Xu beautiful I didn’t catch the video before but I can see this one is beautiful and I believe you painted it bless you on your travels and have a great one smooches and fun.
I love your content! ALL OF IT!! Sometimes hanging with a friend is all about being present. It’s good to be comfortable just hanging and taking care of errands, etc. I enjoy watching your videos and I’m grateful you feel confident enough to share with us! Take care and safe travels !! Rita from Missouri.
These are some of my favorite kind of videos. Just hanging out like friends would. I personally enjoyed this video very much, and I hope you’ll do more like it. ❤
REI should sponsor some of your videos. Look for their once a year sale, give 2 coupons, each: 1) 20% regular item and 2) another for clearance. 💰 but they have good products, service n return policy. Thanks for sharing.Cheers
One good thing about mounting the tire on the back is that it'll be easier to access in general. Enjoying your videos and sending well wishes on your future travels and videos.
Living in that Subaru reminds me of being an astronaut in a spaceship! That's pretty adventurous on it's own! I personally wouldn't last more than a few days living like that! But it's nice how happy she is living in her Subaru!!
I'm glad to see that you are enjoying your purchases, great video Nomi: I tend to stick with Ozark Hill hiking boots, they are inexpensive and last just as long as brand name hiking boots do. The same can be said, for the puffer jackets and rain slicker, the puffer jackets that I purchased from Walmart keep me just as warm and are very reasonably priced. I tend to stick either with Cabela's or Columbia products, due to being able to find their products for lower prices-Happy trails.
Look into large packing cubes. They make them for shoes to. Keep everything organized and in one space and not rolling all over quick grab and get what you need
You are just amazing. Because of you, I'm planning my own adventures. I wish I could do what you are doing but, I don't have the resources. If I am able to get an SUV, I may do some short trips. I've learned so much from you! Keep us informed on your preparations! So interesting!
I am glad you did not delete this video. I never heard of that brand of jacket and now i plan on buying one. Not for Alaska but Ohio winters when i have to walk my dogs. Every day life is an adventure ❤
There is an iron step that goes around the tire to get to the roof. Stores under where your spare goes. Subaru sells it. I am sure it isn’t just Subaru but it’s where I got mine.
Hi Nomi, Great video. The videos be short but I be loving them. Keep it coming. I'm eating a tofu Asian type of entree. This is my first time eating tofu😮😊!!
Ive loved watching how you prepare food in a rice cooker!! So veratile and the food and spices you prepare when cooking you make everything look and taste sooo delish!!im inspired😊love watching your videos and keeping up to date with your travels

We like to know what going on without adventures sometimes 👍🚙💯
All of your videos are awesome, Nomi. I love how you show how you prepare for your adventures. It gives backstory and most creators don’t do that so kudos to you!
The number of meals that you can make in a rice cooker is crazy. lol I had no idea.
Umm yeah it’s still just a pot lol
@Michelle_Emm She has a portable power station battery.😉
@Michelle_Emm You're welcome! 😊
Start wearing your hiking boots now to break them in before you begin hiking. Your feet will thank you!
Prep a first aid kit include bandaids for blisters liquid IV sunscreen and Advil and ibuprofen ace compression bandages and socks lots of hiking socks
@@francesca9263Agreed!
That's a good idea.
The pasta looked so good ❤

Hey Nomi! Glad you’re happy with the Subaru and getting all organized for your next adventure 🤗 Can’t wait …... until next time!
I love living vicariously through you! Thank you for sharing!
You've given me some good ideas for using my rice cooker for simple meals. Thank you.
Glad you didn’t delete video. Thoroughly enjoyed watching.
Wow spaghetti dinner made in a rice cooker! Nice!😊
I would put the tire on the back with a swing away arm like I use for my power scooter since I’m disabled
I have a thin Patagonia winter jacket that is now 36 years old and you would never know it. Paying for quality truly is a good move long term.
Morning Nomi, I always get so excited when I get your notification. Watching now, have a great week.
You too!!
That bed actually looks comfortable! Thank you for sharing.
Every time I come to this I I get sucked in. Great content.

I Love how organized and "disciplined" you are! You are amazing! Thank you for your content!
Put the tire on the back. One for easier access and two, people will spot that tire on top. Dead giveaway, the last thing you want.
Make sure you get a lock if your going to put the extra tire on the back.
The videos you post are interesting and different. Your enthusiasm for nomadic life is what makes them special💫
I think I would put the tire on the back. Just me personally, the last thing I want to do is climb on the roof to get a tire when I already have a flat. Also, you rarely see a tire on the roof, seems more stealth on the back. Wishing you safe travels!

The cooking videos in the Subaru are my favorite segment.
I love how you cook everything with the rice cooker!! Brilliant!
I like that your vehicle blends in, for safety reasons. Putting the spare tire on the roof is too much of an identifier. ❤
I understand that, but I need a full extra tire for my trip to Alaska and the Arctic. No extra tire is not an option.
@@Nomadicintrovert I hear you ~ maybe a cargo case to store it up top will make it more discreet ~ ♥️
Agreed. If it can go on the back I hope that’s where she decided to put it. I thought she mentioned on the back as an option too. I’m halfway through the video.
@@Nomadicintrovertcan't you remove your spare tire and put the full size tire in its place?
@@jvs1chance since the spare is a donut the space for it probably won’t hold a full size tire.
Nomi your videos have a comforting energy, missed you with your van at first but I see your making your subaru more comfortable. Keep doing your thing❤
The Van is not going anywhere. I’ll still do adventures and living in it, but not right now. Thanks for sticking around 💙

Thankful for the video! Just keep doing, don’t doubt yourself!
On the roof is more out of the way, but harder to access when you need it.
4:35 that was an amazing shot right there. Your b-roll game is on point.
I love your new abode. You always are so organized and I love watching you cooking and cleaning. It is so inspiring. You are a very good role model to follow.
I'm soooo glad you purchased hiking shows. Wearing your sneakers had me nervous all the time.
Congratulations on your accomplishments. How proud you must of yourself. You are well worthy of how splendidly you treat yourself. Happy trails!
Good morning Nomi. I like your jackets. Nice colors. Enjoy the rest of your exciting day and thank you for taking us along. ❤👏🤗☀️
I love how you keep it all simple, funcional but cozy whether that's your environment, clothing, food, whatever. I like the minimalist vibe ❤
Your happiness makes me so happy! Love coming along for the ride! 🤩
I love Merrell. They will last a long time. Don't put it on the roof. I think you'll regret it. Love your videos!
Looking forward to your next adventure and be careful doing whatever it is! I am really struggling with health issues and when I see I have a new video of you, it brings a much needed smile on my face. Love you, Nomi!
That spare tire is heavy, you want to re-think putting it on the roof.
Glad you didn’t delete the video. I love the routine day to day stuff too! You cracked me up when you said you “slept in” and then said it was 7:56 a.m.😂😂 Be safe Nomi🙏🏾
I laughed out loud at this! Call me lazy but 7:56 a.m. is EARLY for me.

Look into large packing cubes. They make them for shoes to. Keep everything organized and in one space and not rolling all over quick grab and get what you need
Nomi check your pockets on your puffer jacket to see if you have a storage pouch that usually comes with it.
Loving all of your videos and I'm loving the NEW SUV ! ❤❤
If your tire is in the back you can have an easier way of getting to it.
I love your food preps and small muck bangs.
I'm a new sub and I'm going all the way back to the beginning til I'm all caught up!! I love your content, it brings me peace, comfort, and joy💜
If your going to Alaska you'll need coveralls and warm blankets, socks, gloves etc.😊
You are just amazing. Because of you, I'm planning my own adventures. I wish I could do what you are doing but, I don't have the resources. If I am able to get an SUV, I may do some short trips. I've learned so much from you! Keep us informed on your preparations! So interesting!

Put the tire on the back, believe me it will be much easier to get at when you need it! Love your new wind jacket Awesome, layering!❤❤❤👍👍👍🧥🥾
Hi Nomi 👋 1000% agree that you have an epic setup!!
Thank you for sharing 🤗 It's always good to see any of your videos. I think how it would be living on the road, and this helps so much❤ God Bless You
I loved this video Nomi! Thanks for sharing....🥹❤️❤️🌹
I vote for the true on the back. Tyre on top will take away your 'stealthness'!!!! 😂
I'm glad you didn't delete this video. It was Great. It was more like the one in the van. I enjoy ALL of your videos. Be safe out there 🙏🏾
There is an iron step that goes around the tire to get to the roof. Stores under where your spare goes.

I am sure it isn’t just Subaru but it’s where I got mine.
For reference. My license says 5’3. I am not 🤣 maybe a 5’1. That’s pushing it
I truly love your content. Always will keep good thoughts and prayers for your safety and wellbeing
Hi Normi, great seeing you. Have a wonderful evening.
Love your videos and that you use the rice cooker! Great idea!
Hi Nomi, Great video. The videos be short but I be loving them. Keep it coming. I'm eating a tofu Asian type of entree. This is my first time eating tofu😮😊!!
As always have fun be safe God bless
