Not everyone is smart, educated, and industrious. In America, everyone has opportunities to excel but unfortunately there are lazy individuals. The Military is one of the best employers, if you do your job, stay fit and disciplined enough to follow orders, then your future is secure so long as you serve 20 yrs or more.

​@@francruz5824Homelessness has nothing to do with laziness. It's when the rent went up higher then your paycheck what causes it.

I was stuck in Toronto for 16 hours. I went to the airport lounge and asked if I could pay to come in. They charged me $60 for the day. Well worth it. The lounge had recliners and lots of food. I was able to get a few hours sleep. Check out the airport lounges if you get stuck in an airport again.

I admire your bravery. I am an introvert who avoids crowds, but I could never fly or vacation in a city alone. It helps to experience it through you.

Criminalizing the homeless is sad and ungodly. Everybody deserves a home and good employment. Thanks for sharing your experience. There are better ways. Anyway love your channel!

10:59 that is so odd that you didn't get a checkout reminder the day before 🤔 I've stayed at some beautiful hotels and some ok/ nice hotels and I swear that always either attach a reminder slip on the door, or slide it under the door (if no one answered the door to receive it).

Hey Nomi, unfortunately those benches are everywhere in larger cities. Austin Tx has "hostile architecture" also. They don't want the homeless sleeping on the benches.😢 Thanks for another great adventure and sorry about the misunderstandings. Take care, we're almost to 200k.👍🏾

Instead of spending money on bars to prevent people from sleeping on benches it would be amazing if they actually tried to help people.

To be safe i would have stayed at a cheaper or paid extra night and avoid late fee and stuff. Its very unsafe for a woman especially major cities at night. Im born and raised in NYC. Very unsafe. Glad your ok. I was worried about you not posting for a few days. Enjoy your time 💜 much love 💜

Ok so bars on benches to prevent the homeless from sleeping on them. People are still going to be homeless and still are going to need a place to sleep so maybe there should be more done in this country to prevent people from being homeless to begin with. Then they wouldn’t have to worry about the benches.

They started this in NYC and call it "hostile architecture" so there is no place to sit. How ridiculous is that? So what if someone sleeps on a bench. If they don't want to see it provide housing.

I knew the airport hall looked familiar at 15:38 and I googled it. It is where Home Alone 1 was filmed. Nice that they keep it decorated exactly the same all these years.

I was happy to see you back home and safe. Stay safe Nomi ❣️

Hey Nomi. Sorry about you having to rush to leave your hotel. I get not wanting to g to pay the higher fee at your hotel, but I would’ve just gone to a safe, inexpensive Motel and stayed for the night. But glad you were safe. Happy New Year to you!

Glad you enjoyed your trip. I am surprised the hotel didn't remind you of the check-out time.

I have been a subscriber since the beginning of your van life journey and you have always stated that you are on a budget. So I completely understand why you chose the airport versus another hotel. Look at it this way. The time you spent in Chicago it seems like you had a pretty good time. And that Nutella cafe looks like a little slice of heaven. Hope you have a safe and wonderful New Years! ✨😌🙏🏽💜

I absolutely love watching your life!

Good to see you’re still going strong!All the best from the Netherlands 👍🏼👀✨🌲

I Love Chicago! I visit twice a year and I never leave without getting Stans!!🎉

Anytime you travel & book a hotel you do get an email confirming the check-in and check-out time. So Nomi should have rechecked her hotel itinerary & flight time, that travel 101. No way I would stayed overnight in an airport. Very surprised since Nomi is a fellow Army veteran, very diligent about schedules & itineraries, just a military thing. We hate to be blindsided. 😅😂

You are such a great foodie!!! Thanks for always feeding us!! Lol I love travelling along with you. Safe travels.

I'm happy you enjoyed my hometown. Hope you get to enjoy the restaurants you missed on your next visit. Have a Happy New Year.

Sleeping at the airport(s) overnight has happened to me on a few occasions and it's mostly uncomfortable, but an adventure nevertheless. Bummer that you missed an extra day exploring in Chi-town. Your marinated beef dinner looks yummy. Happy travels and sending you merry wished for a wonderful 2024!

Thanks for the Chicago adventure- the sights, food and your narrative were a gift- thanks for sharing. Feel badly that you were caught up in last minute check out- it's understandable that you forgot- with everything else going on (travel, planning, new environment, holidays, filming)- It came to me that a nice customer service that hotels can offer is a courtesy reminder of check out time (phone message, note in room, etc) because I am sure this happens to other tourists during an extended stay. In any case, you made the best of it and made it home safely. Wishing you all the best in the New Year. Safe travels.

That $81 "late fee" is obscene. That hotel has some nerve charging such a huge fee! 😠

Most hotels have a locked room where they will store your luggage until you have to go to the airport, so that if you have time to do things before you have to be at the airport, you can safely leave your luggage there and pick it up later. Just a thought if you find yourself in that situation again.
