One thing about this life, it shows how little we need.
NO CLOTHES DRAWER OR TOILET TOUR??!!?! I adore how, from the begininning when we were practically begging you to tell us what/where/how /who your job was- you politely, nicely and righteously told us what was and what WASN'T our business. What you were and were NOT going to share. Some things don't need to be shown or shared and often people can show and tell too much. I applaud you for finding a seemingly perfect balance as a youtuber with tens of thousands of subs(wow, look at you) sharing personal experiences with us , your audience. Brava !!

What type of power station do you use? Can you do a video about it and show how it charges and how much power each appliance uses. Do you have an electric toothbrush? What are all the uses and why did you decide on that particular one? Thanks so much.

Please get a carbon monoxide alarm/sensor also, when you go to Alaska, you are going to want screens on those windows (they are cheap and slid over the window frame). The bugs will eat you alive. Good luck, enjoy and be safe!

Agreed! And I think they’re going to be bad this year. We still have snow at our house and i already have two huge mosquito bites! I have seen a screen for the sunroof, too. I planned to make myself some of the window cover screens and one for the sunroof just for local Alaska adventures. Hope she gets some of them before her trip up here!

You did good! Looks and functions perfect! I have a tip that might help some day. If you are every feeling unwell, flu, cold that wont go away, etc...and you just need to rest. Try to park by the nearest walk in clinic in case you get worse and need to go in. Its hard when youre alone to get/drive to help sometimes so try and position yourself if you are waiting out wether to go in or not. Safe travels!

People that are tall 5'6 and taller and bigger will need a big van because blood clots can happened heath issues is real speaking from experience
I feel like you are saying it so many times that it works for you to make yourself be ok with the small space
I love the way you think things through, do a lot of research and then proceed. So many van lifers just buy a bunch of stuff without a clear vision of the outcome. Then the next thing you know they are changing everything because it didn't go as planned.

If you put the weathertech side window deflectors, you can crack your windows open and no one can see that they're open and you get fresh air in and rain out.
Hi Nomi, The newly built bedding in the SUV looks amazing & carpenters did an excellent job. It's a perfect fit & definitely suits your needs. We're incredibly proud of you for making every effort to keep your viewers informed as a nomad. 🙂
How are you going to get inside the drawers at night?. You need the trunk lift to get inside the drawers.

Your right that build is for you. You have to go out side your van on cold days to get your stuff and don't have room to move around.

Good question🤔🤔but still loving the set up 💕💕
You can check tire pressure on lower left hand side of steering wheel. There’s like three little switches. Flip through them and tire pressure will come up on screen in front of you. You can also check other things through those options. Just learned that for myself. lol. Drove my dealership crazy getting them to check my tires every week. lol
So in order to get things in the drawers you have to get out of the Subaru and open the hatch? I see that as a huge inconvenience ! But if you're happy with it that's all that matters!
Bless you young lady! You're enjoying your nomadic life and it shows.❤

I put in my post the same thing.I would think that it would block your view using your review mirror and then I was reading online that it can block up 200 hundred square feet around your vehicle from being able to see anything coming from the back side of your vehicle as you are drivjng
You look so happy with the decisions you have been making! It’s wonderful to see you so happy! You make me happy for you!
Looks great only one item you should move is the cooker sitting on very top - unsecured - if your break suddenly it could fly out and hit you in the back of your head. - i would move it under bed? Just food for thought
Sweetie, I love what works for you, and I admire your personality. But for me, the downfall is that you have to open the trunk door to get things or cook ❤ But I believe in you, and besafe on your Van Life❤❤❤❤

Exactly and she can have a house if she wants this is what she wants to do ! She is a nomadic introvert ! Her van can’t go through terrain the way her suv can and she’s got money to do this this is how she envisions happiness and joy this time in her life and I’m sure before she does anything she gets with God !!!
Your setup is so cute! And it is perfect for you! May God bless you on all your adventures. I’ll be watching!💕
I love how organized you are and you take care of vehicles.😊
Why not invest on a roof rack where you can store some of your things when not in use???? Also would give you more room!!!Just a friendly suggestion

Hey, Beautiful Soul! So happy for your new build ❤ May I just advise: you should cover your power station with the garbage bag or whatever you prefer any time you’re away from your rig. Criminals know its value, you don’t want them to see it. Tinted windows have never been a barrier for stealing stuff from ppls cars. Sending you lots of love and light ❤
Wow! They did such a great job on that build! You're going to be able to be so organized. I am so happy for you! So many great adventures ahead.
Love Love Love you girl..... Just a note about your hiking alone. I also hike alone; however, you should always have a Garmin or Zoleo that you could send an SOS with your GPS location. I twisted my ankle hiking solo and this saved my life. Stay Blessed and keep those videos coming. I always squeal silently when I see a new one come out!

Great suggestion! It’s really a safety must! God bless you for bringing it to her attention !
I love, love, love your set I’m 5’1 also, we are the perfect height. Make sure you put cotton balls with peppermint oil around the vehicle and inside to keep the mice out. You can also use the spray and spray around your tires and inside it will keep unwelcome visitors out . I learned that tip from @wheresTiffany another van lifer, she showed how she keep mice away.
Great advice Nomi! You are livin your dream and that’s so dang cool!!
Looks cozy, but I can no longer imagine going on trips with you because there’s no room in the vehicle for me. Lol. I’ll just keep watching your adventures from home. 😆 I’m glad it’s working for you. Stay safe!
I'm so glad your build turned out the way you wanted it. For myself, I 'd only last a day. Loved your van, though. You're pretty amazing, and I hope you have fun!
The company did a nice job on the build. The only thing I would be concerned with is the fact you need to have the back door of your suv open in order to access those drawers. It doesn't appear you can open those storage areas with the door closed.
I admire Nomi!! She a lot braver and more of an adventurer than i will ever be. I love watching her videos and living vicariously through her. Thank you, Nomi. Travel-on girl ❤ ✌️
I’m new to tiny living and I came across your channel and love it.
Gurl, love that build, they did a great job. Perfect for you, Im amazed at all the space an storage. Your proving it can be done!! You get the best views 😊 Great vlog, til next time, see ya 👍✌️❣️

But you can’t get to the drawer storage from inside. And I’m thinking it will be a tight fit to sit in there on the bed it’s so high. Nice carpentry and perfect for. What I love about it is it will probably easily move to a van if you ever change vehicles some day.
I’m about to convert an older mini van here in the uk. Your words have made me feel even more encouraged. Thank you, love your videos, so relaxing. Take care. 😊
The buildout is awesome! You also could have removed the passenger and back seat, put them in storage and had more space in the SUV.
You've got the SUV set up perfectly. It's nice and cozy and very organized. Thank you for the tour and explaining everything for us inquiring minds :)
Her videos r so satisfying ❤ why do i jist want to lay in that bed and chill lol
Build is a good use of your small space😍, curious to see what changes you would consider making after living for awhile to make it much more functional, those are always the best videos when considering a build like these especially regarding accessibility to any storage issues without the need of opening your door 🤔
Hey Nomi I'm impressed with your new set up. Continued safe travels and blessings. Ready for our new adventures. ❤❤
Love the setup. So organized and functions according to your needs and wants

Wow, your nomadic life is so exciting, fun, and enough!👍🏾 I love watching!🥰
So glad this makes you happy. Happiness is not overrated 😊.
I’m glad you are doing ‘you’ which is what people should do. But personally I think you’re crazy. I thought the van was cool, you were traveling great, but this to me is just unsafe. Windows are easy to break, and there are way too many crazies out there. I pray for your safety woman.
I LOVE your home. It's a GREAT setup. And, I love the joy you so clearly express. May God continue to bless you.
Love your chill spot!
It’s a good build. The top portion maybe could have been made to access from the inside so that you would not have to get out to get to ALL of your things on cold days. 🤔
