He knew you were in there. I had a guy standing at the light, staring daggers at me and my instinct told me to lock the door. He acted like he was crossing the street, then quickly diverted and grabbed my door handle. He was a white male with dead eyes. Once he failed, his whole posture immediately changed into a "poor beggar looking for pocket change." I drove off when the light changed. From that day on, my doors are locked before the door closes! So glad you are ok!!!

Hey Noami, I don't normally comment on videos; but I wanted to let you know that you probably did lock the doors. There is a gadget (idk what it's called) that can unlock electric locks. I heard about it from my mom (she saw another van lifer fall victim to it- thank God they weren't hurt). You should make locking the deadbolts to your driver and passenger doors a part of your routine. You should also look into deadbolting the sliding door (if they don't already come with it) since they're also electrical. Don't beat yourself up over this incident, you did the right things in listening to the Holy Spirit and acting fast. I hope my comment helps! God bless 💖 Edit*** I'm not a van lifer (I'm hoping to get a small RV sometime soon!); my mom told me about this happening to someone else. I'm sorry for the miscommunication!

I've heard about that device, too. They say not to leave your keys near your door as you walk in, if your car has a remote entry. This device can read your signal, and they can break into your car. I take my car key to bed. Car alarm is a great thing if you find yourself in trouble at night and need help.

I think you're going in the right direction by deciding to eventually invest in property for a homebase because it's time like these where you could use it to regroup and recover.

He knew you were in there. I had a guy standing at the light, staring daggers at me and my instinct told me to lock the door. He acted like he was crossing the street, then quickly diverted and grabbed my door handle. He was a white male with dead eyes. Once he failed, his whole posture immediately changed into a "poor beggar looking for pocket change." I drove off when the light changed. From that day on, my doors are locked before the door closes!

Hey Noami, I don't normally comment on videos; but I wanted to let you know that you probably did lock the doors. There is a gadget (idk what it's called) that can unlock electric locks. I heard about it from my mom (she saw another van lifer fall victim to it- thank God they weren't hurt). You should make locking the deadbolts to your driver and passenger doors a part of your routine. You should also look into deadbolting the sliding door (if they don't already come with it) since they're also electrical. Don't beat yourself up over this incident, you did the right things in listening to the Holy Spirit and acting fast. I hope my comment helps! God bless 💖 Edit*** I'm not a van lifer (I'm hoping to get a small RV sometime soon!); my mom told me about this happening to someone else. I'm sorry for the miscommunication!

I've heard about that device, too. They say not to leave your keys near your door as you walk in, if your car has a remote entry. This device can read your signal, and they can break into your car.

Miss Nomad, please don’t beat yourself up. You made it through without being hurt or losing anything. You learned from it. It’s normal to feel upset and scared in this situation. We sometimes get distracted. You’ve already decided to park near other people and always check to ensure you’ve locked the doors. Rest well and be safe. ❤

So glad you trusted your instinct and got up!! Try to focus on all that you fid right… trusted your gut, immediately looked at the light and locked the doors. So many might not have had the swiftness of action to not continue trying to find the key. Your strategy of jumping in the seat and putting in the key was excellent too. You did so many things soooo right!!! Love your videos and so glad you sre safe and sharing this experience will help so many others!!
I commend you on working well under pressure. Hitting that interior locked was genious. I have no doubt the Holy Spirit was with you, alerting you and protecting you. Powerful lesson learned. And most importantly, you are safe. ❤😊🙏

You have a safe routine, when you broke that routine cuz you were distracted, your brain subconsciously knew thus, your brain knew you shouldn't go to sleep and so you got up. Likewise, that dude probably knew that parking lot from his bad habits & routines.. and his brain told him subconsciously there was a possible opportunity with that vehicle. Repetition is the Mother of skill and that's why you were quick on your feet. Great video, thanks for posting. Stay sharp 😎 P.S. I'm 6'3" big dude most wouldn't wanna mess with but because I don't want to deal with any type of bad situations, I always check off the locking of my truck doors every time I hop in. It's a simple press of a button and it prevents unnecessary drama and or danger dont need to waste my time and energy on. God Bless you

Glad you are okay😢 Something similar happened to Alyssa Vanilla on her channel. A man stalked her out from up on a mountain. Came down and told her a man was watching her and pointed her out to him, so he came to WARN her that "Some guy" was watching her. He returned a second time like an hour later to talk to her again. He basically warned her of what his plan was for her if she stayed. She followed her gut and left too. That is terrifying.

RIGHT!! I felt like I was watching the beginning of a HORROR movie!! So happy she is safe.
Thank God you are ok. Yes, please never park in isolated places. There are predators just waiting for the chance to target your property and/or you. As the old saying goes, there is safety in numbers.
I'm so glad that you clarified because I was about to be sooo mad at you if you knew everything was unlocked!!! Glad your safe. Do not be discouraged. ❤
Thank GOD for keeping you SAFE HE GOT YOU❤
No more, “what if” you followed your gut! Now, moving forward you have to stay focus! Also, you’re the 4th female vanlife person who had an attempt intruder. I pray for all of the female van lifers! 🙏🏾🙏🏾 This a cruel world! Blessings
Nomi, without a doubt GOD GOT YOU UP!!!! I am full of goosebumps!!! How freakin scary!! I'm shaken up for you. God was looking out for you. Forgive yourself and now you know better. You will NEVER make that mistake again. Thank god you're safe. That man was full of crazy. You made all the right moves because God was with you. -Lety from Chicago

So true.🙏🏼
thank god it was JUST him and thank god a angel talked to you that day. Please be safe !
it seems like your dad is ALWAYS protecting you! ❤ be at peace 🤍
I am in the logistics industry and we always send out company wide warnings about theft and break ins over holiday weekends. There is the assumption that the “cargo” is left unattended. Your van gives the impression that there is something inside worth stealing. An angel was watching over you. Luckily you and your van are safe and you will never break character again. Intuition and faith are powerful Be safe out there. ❤

She should make up a fictitious company logo to put on the vehicle; something like "We buy junk!" LOL Maybe that would deter break-ins! LOL
Oh Nomi!! I’m so sorry this happened to you!! We all let our guard down sometimes!! Don’t be too hard on yourself… lesson learned👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 thank you for sharing!🤗
Praising God that you’re safe. Sometimes things happen for a reason. I honestly believe that this video will safely protect someone. Sometimes we get comfortable, especially in areas that we consider “safe”. This could happen to anyone.
You have described your situation, your reaction, your feelings so well. Thank you for sharing. It is a lesson for us all!
Nomi, you've almost become like a virtual daughter to me, and I'm so glad that God nudged you to get up, and that you obeyed that nudge. I'm also glad you acknowledge that it was God, indeed. I think you're going in the right direction by deciding to eventually invest in property for a homebase because it's time like these where you could use it to regroup and recover. Thank God you're okay!
Hey Nomi, I am so glad that God woke you up and you had time to secure your vehicle. Be careful to not park in places where there is no other vehicles. Safety first.
Goodness you had me at the edge of my seat with this one. Thank God you're okay tho, and please remember to lock up okay🙏
Glad you are sharing your story. It may save someone else ❤. Be happy YOU survived . God always has you.❤
Sorry about such an harrowing experience. I know ur a Vet and hopefully carry ur 2nd amendment with you. Protection prayers continue with u. Thank u for ur service.
That gut feeling is amazing isn't it? And I'll boldly say especially for us women who have it ingrained in us since we're little to hear when it's screaming at us that something isn't right. So, yours is working great and you're only human and I can totally see myself forgetting to lock some doors here and there too. Scary though and so glad you're ok!🙏

Most definitely!
I just rewatched this. All I want to say is, you just help me regain my faith. I've just been waiting for evidence and you just provided it. Thank you.
nothing more relaxing than the wonderful waves of the ocean and the breeze!!!!!
This is why I love motored RVs compared to fifth wheels, etc. Can you imagine having this happen in a fifth wheel? You would have to jump out, attach to your truck, etc. Glad you're ok Nomi. A guardian angel was with you and got you up.

So an RV you think would be better, more safe?

@gingerandspice1209 Only from the perspective that you would not need to leave the RV and go outside to a truck or something, if you owned a fifth wheel, etc.
God protects his children through our intuition. Glad you're safe, stay safe💜
God is so good! Praise God you’re ok!!
You should be locking ALL doors even when you’re driving ! I’m in Canada & when I’m out & about, I ALWAYS lock all my doors. This way it becomes a habit that you do automatically. Hope you hear me on this advice & do it . Be safe!🙏🏼👍🏼
Thank God you're alright! Quit beating yourself up focus on the positive. This situation will help you to be more alert and look how many viewers you are helping by sharing this (I'm one). Take care and stay safe!
Thanks for sharing this experience. Do you have a camera outside your van or in your van, they are always nice to have if that's something you think would offer you less anxiety, while parking.

1st time viewer. Excellent video! And your meal is amazing. Thankful for God’s protection and that you are safe. Appreciate the info. New sub
Yes, God had and has your back! So glad you are safe. Your experience, as horrific as it was may help someone else. Blessings!
Please don't park so isolated again ❤ be SAFE🙏🏽
I am so grateful for your quick action. God definitely woke you up at the exact moment to lock the Van. Thank God that you are ok. That was very scary. God is always with us. 🙏🤗💖
Merry Christmas, Nomi!!! Keep enjoying your journey and please continue to be safe on your amazing travels 💚🎄💚
OMG! I’m so sorry! That would’ve been so scary! I’m glad that you’re ok, shaken of course, but ok. God be with you and keep you safe! ❤
Your story had my heart racing & pounding with overflowing tears of gratitude to your creator for guiding & protecting you while you quickly went into survival mode & for your ability & courage to debrief yourself & still be standing & safe…. you were able to respond quickly & remove yourself from harm.
Philly: You should check into alarm system for vans like they do cars that headlight flash/horn blaring loudly/hubcaps/steering wheel etc lock while blurring. You should check into that.
So happy for you ! It's crazy out here ...sending loads of good energy ❤
You’re amazing, I just started watching your videos and subscribed.
