Camper playing with his squeaky toy and climbing on you while your sick as if he was trying to make you feel better ❤. Melted my heart lol
Dogs (and Cats) are very perceptive to their humans and do try to help.
Same!!! He really is the best 🥰🥰! I’m so lucky!
@@NikkiDelventhal wow..and your single?..I would really take care of you sweetness ..you have amazing soul..god bless you and your beautiful dog..
@@drunken-skunk with that appealing handle what lady can resist?
@@darrenoconnell9716 🤣
I'm a truck driver and I can completely understand this video. I've been there. Have to get somewhere and feel utterly terrible. Hope you are doing well now.
Hope u get better soon too! Best wishes from a random stranger that wishes you well.
Me too mark. It's rough when you are not feeling well and have to get the miles behind you.
How do you keep your van warm when you’re parked at the loves in the freezing temperatures overnight?
Profile picture checks out
@@carpediem7654 huh?
This is probably the most realistic and genuine van life video I've seen lol
Absolutely!!!
That dog is so precious! I love dogs but I love my cat too.
As a trucker I can relate to it all , I would recommend that if you feel to sick pull over and rest , I absolutely love your dog 🐕 such a good boy. Please stay safe and healthy the both of ya.
I'm taking a moment to consider what it must feel like to have 2000 people care enough to write thoughtful words and 182,000 that very likely thought warm-hearted well wishes. All in less than 24 hours. You are loved.
I am SO FREAKING LUCKY. I love you all! Thank you for the love and care and support! 🫶🏼❤️
Nicki, I’m an old retired cop from the other side of ‘the pond’, but please allow me to offer some advice. NEVER drive when you’re unfit. Your reactions and concentration may well be impaired, and it’s certainly not worth risking your life for.
Having said that, it was lovely to see Camper trying to cheer you up with his squeaky toy. It was quite obvious that he was worried about you.
I hope you’re feeling better now. Take care.
Yeah, I don't understand either. Could have easily taken a few days off without recording or driving but why would she? Needs some pity views.
@@knowledge4741 I'm sure she wasn't looking for pity... this is real life and she's sharing that... and to be honest she continued to do things without any help so the ones I have pity for is the ones looking for attention by judging ppl just living their lives as usual... this is what you call vloging in real life🤷♀️
@@knowledge4741 she mentioned having an appointment she couldn’t miss so she had to keep going
@@avril.227A dilemma: I have to get to this appointment which must be life and death important, because what the British cop implied was that driving while impaired at all, Is life and death and not just your own. I guess we’ll have to see how critical the appointment is. As many nomads, I’m well into retirement years and would opine to my contemporaries that many of us, travel alone at least part of the time and so have to be our own flight surgeon and send ourselves to sick bay when appropriate to reduce risk of dying today. Because death is a set back that people with white hair have seen and mostly want to avoid. The vehicle borne Nomad is a lot of walks of life I’m sure; however I noticed one demographic that is often in the #1 position for prevalence and always in the top #3 and that is SINGLE people well into retirement years (Seniors) often Women. This demographic doesn’t fit Nikki obviously, and she represents a young and normally able-bodied part of the nomad population. People would do well while enjoying Nomadic freedom, to be realistic about our ability to safely drive every time.
What a great Movie/Story/Vlog entry. I laughed, I cried and thought myself a better person for my part in persevering through hard times with Camper-Nikki-Rodney me, and 841k new friends. Time well spent
I'm sick with an awful cold, and bronchitis, missed work, and making no money and this video made my day when I saw your dog chewing on that squeaky toy. Thanks for making this super sick gal smile!
Tips on your pan: i’m assuming it’s stainless steel. If so. you have to let it preheat before you use it so the pores close and food doesn’t stick as much. You can tell it’s ready if you drop some water onto the pan and it dances around. Hope this helps! ❤
Wow! Good to know! Thanks- I hate stainless steel pans. I will have to try your suggestion!
im also sitting alone with my migrane while watching your video… i know how hard is to be completely on our own while being sick and having to take care of animals. much love to you 💚
Me too!😉
❤️❤️ love and Hugs back!!!
So sorry for the migraine. I have them as well. I wish the best and the migraines to go away!
I can sooo relate! I have 5 pitties and they require tons of exercise in order to keep them calm and not trying to pick fights with each other they are amazing babies but any dog gets irritable if they don’t get the stimulation they need. I recently had they flu at the same time my husband had it and we are still working to get back in schedule with the furry ones, not to mention straightening out our own mess. I could not imagine being on the road with my dogs AND being sick. Kudos to Nikki, she made it look easy lol!
Love those Love truck stops. When I traveled allot racing I was always towing a boat so I went to the truck stops where there was allot of space to turn around.
I loved the way Camper was looking at you while he knew you were driving while sick. His love for you is so clear to see.
His anxiety about surviving the trip, notwithstanding...
We don't deserve dogs ❤
Hi Nikki, sorry you’re feeling bad but you still have a great big smile on your face.
Hope you feel better soon! Please be safe vlogging while driving. A stationary set up and not looking at the camera. I’ve seen too many people lose their lives or cause others to lose their lives for filming or taking photos while driving. We want you and Camper safe 🙏🏼🐶🤗
You are such a trooper, Nikki. Having to be entertaining while sick must suck too. Please feel better soon!
Thank you! I feel so lucky to have this community and all your love and support! Just wow! 🫶🏼 HUGS!
Just did something similar I drove from San Antonio Texas to Iowa in just under 20 hours right after this nasty freezing storm that went through. Trucks and passenger cars on their sides in the medium on the Burm up in peoples yards amazing.
I basically camp out in my car every 2 weeks driving back-and-forth to a job that I have away from my home been doing that for about 8 years now and I spend at least one night sleeping in the car every 2 weeks. Hard to imagine doing it every day and not having a home base or a place to stretch out and have the comforts of home. But the Van has really been a game changer for you and I hope your next vehicle serves you as well as the truck and as your prius did.
Camper is such a good companion! I love how he tried to cheer you up with his squeaky toy when he sensed that you were not feeling well. Such a sweetie!
You have followers all over the U.S. It'd be so great if you could figure out a way to create a vetting process so that you could let people help you when you really needed it. I'd bet that there are a lot of good people who would love to be there for you in a time of need. Sadly, there are probably a lot of creeps too.
Good luck to you!
What a great idea!!!
👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏💎
I was thinking the same thing....but the creep thing would make it near impossible.
I felt so bad for her that I would sit in my car with her while she slept on the side of the road.
Driving sick SUCKS!
... not just in the usa but followers in the rest of the world too!
kudos 👏🏻 💪🏻
hope u are well by now ..
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ☃️🎊✨️🥳 2u & 🦮 much luv & stay safe from Singapore 🇸🇬 💛
I hope You get better soon. I love your cute dog Camper.
This might just be my favorite episode! I’m sorry you were sick. But you were so completely relatable! An absolute pleasure to watch!
Nikki, you are young and full of energy and are on the move all over the place, but when you get sick you have to find a place to stop and rest to get well! There, I gave my fatherly advice! I hope all goes well for you this coming new year! Stay safe out there Nikki!
Dogs always seem to know what we need to make us feel better!😂
Camper is very smart.
Early morning walks...no thanks! And the squeaky toy a big no! He does look like a good boy though :)
Camper trying hard to cheer you up is so precious! I hope you feel better
I LOVE how Camper crawls under the blankets with you! I don’t sleep well unless one of mine is snugged right up next to me!
K legit your a G cause the fact I know editing and filming is already so much work but doing all that while sick and plus still getting all the shots. Like you have another videographer is nothing far from amazing! I seriously admire your strength so much it definitely pushes me to do better and work harder. Thank you for all you do I know it’s a lot 💜
Thank you for the love and recognition and support ❤️❤️ xo
Must be tough finding medical care while your on the road and not able to take sick days. Thanks for being a trooper and still managing to keep us entertained with your travel adventures. Extra thanks to Camper for showing what a great emotional support dog he can be.
not a thing a person can do with this flu except nyquil etc
Put a dash of Vaporub on your upper lip, and a big dollop on your sternum, ALWAYS wear a hoodie and thermal socks, drink loads of room temp water, and drop Tylenol Cold during waking hours, and for good sleep, drop Tylenol with NyQuil. Try to keep your internal temp/fever as high as possible, within reason. You will sweat, and feel chills, but with Vaporub and Nyquil and CONSTANT heat from clothing will break your fever much quicker. No dairy, no bread, pasta, etc. and low oil, even chili oil...and very low sugar, no candy, no sweetener, no juices. Reduce caffiene, stick with clear liquids until you're better. When the fever breaks, you will SNAP from tortured sweating and chills and fever...to 100%. Please just try it before you knock it. Great channel, great dog, yr kewl. Peace... from one who's been vanning for 12 years in a venerable '01 Dodge Maxivan 3500 with 300k. Peace.
Your awesome Nicki. Even when your sick your posting videos. Get better soon and get some real good rest.

@@charlesstingley6319 What? Why?
You need to leanr ENGLISH.
So sorry you were sick, hopefully you are feeling much better now. You certainly keep it real in your videos! Thanks for sharing even when you're sick!
Hope you are feeling better and can't wait to see the new place!
Oh my goodness so sorry to see you sick.
I’m 70 year old widower who knows full well what it’s like to be sick and alone but still needing to care for my dogs.
You’re totally right, “it sucks”!!
Hope you’re feeling better?
Merry Christmas.
Ralph, I am widower as well. God Bless you as you endure life without your other half. All the Best! 👍
@@Scott-NCC1701 Thanks Scott I appreciate your kind comment. My wife died of metastasized breast cancer seven years ago. Since then I’ve made my life alone and I must say I do pretty good.
I purchased a RoadTrek Class C Camper Van last January and I love the travel.
Thanks again.
Me "liking" your comments in NO WAY MEANS that I am happy that either of you lost your spouses.
I have a chronic illness, and at the end of 2020, my spouse/caregiver abandoned me while I was asleep. Turns out he's a narcissist, and I was starting to see through his lies, so he left me for someone else.
I CANNOT identify with the death of a spouse, but that's what it felt like. It took me 45 minutes to find the note he left.
"I can't be monogamous. Don't call me or try to find me." That's all he wrote.
I honestly thought we had worked everything out and his absence just......traumatized and is still traumatizing at times.
So the person I was so much in love with has been gone since that day. Therefore, I often feel like a widow.
All that to say, I clicked 👍 bc I truly feel like I understand both of you widowers' similar grief. 😢 😭
Just got over the flu myself and it was no joke. I couldn't imagine driving and filming during that. You're made of some really tough stuff!
Thanks for bringing us the content even when you're sick as a dog. (No offense, Camper! ❤️)
I swear the flu this year is some super strength bug lol. I’m on day 19 of having it and my second round of antibiotics and I’m still not back to normal.
@Mandalee Milly a hot shower then a hot todie with honey then sleep which is the best for the body.
@@mandaleemilly6367 It was the worst flu I've ever had! Lasted almost about a month. I hope you're back to 100% really soon! ❤️
@@stum8374 That's some sage advice right there. 😊
What would we do without Camper for comic relief!
I'm sorry to hear that you are sick. Hugs and prayers🙏🏻❤
I can understand the sucks part. Been living in my car for close to a year now. Definitely have the feels of alone and hard. Seeing you and camper gives me the warm fuzzies knowing you guys are still making it. Don't get yourself down, you seem like a strong individual. I am hoping you feel better soon and that you keep keeping on
Hope you’re feeling better Nikki by the time we are watching this x
6 days ago wow anyway yeah I hope Nikki is all better now too 🙏🏽
I'm sick at home right now by myself with my dogs & it's hard enough as it is. That was cute when Camper was trying to cheer you up with his toy.
Get well soon, Jack!!
@@redrooster1908 Thank you for that!
I know - Camper was so cute with his toy - a little comic relief!
I'm sick too - 🤜🤛 but not as sick as Nikki 😰😰 I hope you feel better - soon, too!
I am also home alone with my dog and first time getting Covid. No yard so I have to walk him . He is used to me running him (an Australian Shepherd ) so a lot of energy but I can’t run now or take him to the dog park. Being alone is definitely challenging !
@@stefanieb9241 Oooh that must be hard. I've been there too but right now they have a small fenced yard, and it's -1 with a -25 wind chill right now so I am thankful for that. They don't even want to go out there today. I love Aussies! I had a beloved mini Aussie years ago. I hope you get well soon and can run with him again!
Hope you're feeling better. All the best for the New Year.
Nice to see you still have your sense of humour even while sick wishing you all the best over this period you are a true inspiration
Happy birthday fellow Cappy! There are over half a million of us in this amazing community that you built. Here's to a million!
I second that!
Camper knows your not feeling well and does anything he can to put a smile on your face. ❤
Sorry to hear that, hope you and camper have fun and have good health this new year.
I feel so bad for you 😢 no fun at all!! Hope you get well soon ❤love from Colorado
Here’s to a much better 2023 for us all 🎉🙏🏼
We ALL want you to feel SO much better Nikki, we love you so much, AND Camper too!!!
They really are loved, and their travels are a gift to many of us who cannot! ❤️🙏💞
Oddly enough, this was one of my favorite videos of yours, Nikki. Your authenticity is second to none. Thanks for taking us along on your journey even when you're sick. 😊😊
Thank you!
Get well Nikki, I love poppin' in to see you havin' fun... you're so fun to watch... even when your sick! poor baby~! get well soon!
OMG I'm enjoying watching your doggy enjoying the road trip. So adorable 🥰 definitely a good companion
Camper is the best buddy, I`m so happy he found you. Feel better soon.
Hey I hope you feel better! Safe travels!
I really appreciate the way you share your experience. You're so real. You reminded me how helpless you can feel when you're feeling sick and can't stop right away and crash.
I’m so sorry you were sick I love your dog and you best wishes You’re a trooper as my mom used to say
Hope for a speedy recovery. One love ❤️
Sending prayers that you are feeling better soon and safe travels.
This why I keep coming back to your videos, still doing what you do even though your not feeling well. Hope your better soon. Love from MT
Just watched this one while I was sick too. Felt for ya! You're adorable even when you're sick! Hope you are better ny now!
So sorry you were ill. You and camper have a great Christmas and safe travels! ⛄
Being able to push forward when you are that sick says a lot about you! Hope you feel better soon and stay safe & warm!!!
Awww.. I feel ya. Thank goodness for little camper! A travel buddy changes everything. Love your videos. It’s fun to continue traveling through someone else’s view. I love traveling with my buddy Diesel
You, girl are amazing, even while sick. It takes a lot to care for yourself when your by yourself! Glad you have Camper with you! Hope your feeling better!
You and Camper are priceless, feel better and safe travels. Happy holidays!
So sorry for your sickness hope you feel better soon ❤❤
Thank you for keeping it real and sharing this one!
Watching you and Camper even if youre sick the happy and cheerfull side of you shines through ❤so inspirational
BIG Props to you, Niki, when I was fulltime on the road when I got sick, the RUclips videos and vlogging ended because I could not imagine filming and working on vlogging while I was sick like this!
I can't believe you are soooo sick and still setting up your video shots like that. I'd be like screw it, I'm sick and check into a hotel for a few days. You are definitely a professional when it comes to RUclips and doing it right. I hope you and Camper have a great Christmas and NYE.
Tim O'Toole, a hotel room wouldn't provide her with anything that she doesn't already have in that new Sprinter camping van.
Really glad you included this video. Lots of good info and real life stuff. Being sick is never fun and having to push through anyway is worse.
You are so awesome. What a trooper. Praying that you are well by now since I just found you again. Camper is the absolute best companion.
Hope you feel better soon. Merry Christmas to you and Camper. Stay safe and healthy.
Hope you feel better Nikki.
Merry Christmas to you, Camper & your family!!!
Cheers from Vancouver🙂
I’m an overlander in my Jeep and really have enjoyed your videos. New to the Channel but really enjoying learning about van life. Me and my pup overland and it’s always cool to see other dogs on long trips and how they act. Keep it up. Can’t wait to see more!
Happy New Year to you & Camper! Hope that 2023 will continue to be an enjoyable journey for you both!!
Hope you feel better soon Nikki 🙏Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 and Happy New Year to you , Camper 🐾and family, stay safe and take care my friends 🙂👋
You are a trooper Nikki! I can't even imagine filming everything while running a fever. When I have a fever of 99, it puts me down for the count. Safe travels!
RUclips recommended this one to me 5 months after you posted. I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather so I found it relatable. It’s always nice to see you and Camper just living and enjoying life and showing us it’s not always sunshine and roses.
We’re sorry you’ve been feeling so sick. I agree, being on the road sick, sucks!!! Especially when you’re boondocking without easy electricity and water. Super hoping by the time we see this you’re feeling way better ❤️✨sending lots of love and healing thoughts
Oh, that does really suck! We hope you feel better soon. Camper is so sweet trying to make you feel better. We are excited to see the new rig. Merry Christmas to you and Camper.
Thanks for being real and showing your "bad" days too. I know how much it sucks to have to drive cross country while feverish. Glad you're safe and hopefully feeling much better
LOVE your video and we've been having a blast traveling with you all the way! It sucks you're sick and by yourself and I'm not sure I'd be as strong as you being sick and driving in that crappy weather.
I hope you are feeling better today. Sucks being sick and alone. I admire and respect you. Stay safe. 🙂🤍👍
you get well soon Nikki! Be safe and don't get fatigued while sick and driving. We all want to continue seeing Camper and you on your adventures. Merry Christmas! 🙏❤🙂
I hope you are all better❤ Sending all my love to you and Camper from Austin Texas ❤🐾❤🐾 Stay safe and warm.🧣🧤
Can’t wait to see the new rig ! Be safe out there 🙏
One compliment to you is , you're brave and adventurous.
Wise experience always says " alone and lonely on a long journey is like cake without candle and no chances of cherry top.
Lots of good wishes to you.
Never in my life have I wanted more to hug a stranger. I hope you feel much better by now, Nikki. Love and safe travels to you and Camper always!
Such a warm and lovely attitude while feeling sick this has been a heartwarming video be safe in your travels
I'll keep you in my prayers and thoughts so you'll feel better soon and God bless you and camper and be safe and careful driving and please get some rest 🙏 ♥️ ❤️
It's difficult when you're not okay, but you still need to take care of yourself and your best friend. You have a Strong personality Nikki.
I was so worried about you when you showed us the thermometer which read 103. I really hope you are feeling better very soon. And to add to the mix you have snow . God bless you and camper dog. Stay safe and warm. Drink lots of broth.☃️❄️🎄🧑🎄👍🙂
Man, props to you for still making a vid despite feeling like death! Hope you feel better soon!
You're a trooper! I'm hoping by now you're feeling much better and know what's the cause of you feeling that way... Camper is the sweetest 🥰 hope y'all got to your destination safely 🙏 💞
Thank you this video. Showing the other side of van life. Love the other real side of things. You must have felt vulnerable and trust me, we did too, with felt vulnerable with you. So thanks again for making this. Hoping for a speedy recovery. for you
I got so sick a few weeks ago. Fever, chills, high fever, urgent care and antibiotics. So I feel you. It was miserable. Hope you are fully recovered and can't wait to your new rig you bought. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and Camper.
So glad you are feeling so much better!
Best Wishes for the Holidays, and Through the New Year!
Glad you pulled through, Gazelle! ❤️
Niki it amazes me no matter what you you go through how positive you always are. Hope you are feeling better! You are an inspiration to my channel! Merry Christmas!
You are truly one amazing woman, even when you're sick you still have such positive energy👏👏👏
Sooo much fun energy! Thanks for the videos
I hope you feel better soon! I couldn't imagine driving while sick let alone filming while sick. You're amazing!
Don’t think she is a nerd. Little crazy perhaps.
Even when you're feeling under the weather, Nikki, you're amazing. You are an inspiration to me because you endure with a grin on your face, and your fun-loving, carefree spirit never fades no matter what life throws at you! I hope you feel better tomorrow, and I wish you and Camper safe and exciting travels. Dear friend, Merry Christmas! xoxo
I’m glad that you’re feeling better. Yay Loves!
Great videos, feel better & Happy New Year to you & Camper!🎉
5:40 such a good pup! Stay Warm and safe through the terrible Storms looks like you are in the thick of it now with the cold front
Hope you get better quickly. Insurance sucks and is a pain. You are a trooper having fun and making content while sick. Can’t wait to see your new home
Hope you are feeling better Nikki. I ❤ Camper!
Bless you , love watching you. Get well soon x
You are endlessly impressive...to be putting all of this shooting and editing work, plus driving, plus being miserably sick, into these programs...well, I've come to believe that you are unstoppable!
🤜🤛👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪
Great adventure this week. I hope you feel better soon. I know Camper was doing all he could to make you feel better. MERRY CHISTMAS Nikki & Camper ❤
Hope you feel better .... your smiles makes us smile ....
Camper knows you’re not doing so good. What a sweet baby. Hope you’re feeling better. Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 🎉
