    The difference between alligators and crocodiles is that one will see you later and the other will see you in a while 😂

    You should have put all the seats down and stretched out slept in the huge cargo area, it would have been soo much more comfortable.

    Hey Nomi,
    I can't tell you how much you help me when I see you rolling with inconvenient situations.
    As a wanna-be nomad I greatly appreciate that you are so real with us regarding the good and not so good aspects of you just living your life. 🐢

    Ride share services are generally pretty safe and they can't dupe you with incorrect routes bc the company monitors their GPS. You also dont have to pay the tips in cash, just in the app. 👍

    @Vanlife-Ultimate-Fieldtrip Год назад +52

    I can't thank you enough for taking us along on your nomad journey. Your road trips are the best. I get to see places I have not seen. The Everglades was a great visit. I can tell you are really nice. People respond to you so well. I laughed when you asked the guy, "Why the waiver?" and his response was cute. I look forward to "OUR" next trip. 🥰

  • @marydesalvo3470
    @marydesalvo3470 Год назад +58

    The Everglades trip looked amazing! You should consider stopping at a visitor center in the next National Park you visit and purchase (should be under $20) a passport book. It has all sorts of info about all the parks/sites/monuments plus places to collect stamps (just like on a real passport) from these places. You just need to go into the visitor center at any location and look for the stamp area- ask if you can’t find it. It’s a fun thing to do. I carry mine on all trip within the US.

    I’ve never taken Uber either, but your Uber driver seemed so nice. And the best part about your temporary home is it’s an American vehicle. Thank you. In enough room, it looks like in the back to stretch out. So nice to see downtown Miami 🌴 did you go to any restaurant there?

    I just bought a Chrysler Pacifica that I’m hoping to use to travel. Not sure if you had realized that the second row of seats also folded down into the floor as the back seats did - “stow and go” (unless you have a hybrid). Anyway hope you enjoyed the van - still watching!

    I smiled when I saw that you rented a Chrysler Pacifica! That's the minivan I bought 4 years ago for my retirement. I love the stow & go seating in the back to convert to a cargo van. I bought a camping cot to go camping (more like glamping😊) in it this summer. I live in L.A. and its quite stealthy here in the city. Safe travels!
