I love her! Inspiring.
Thank you for watching!
What kind of van???
Hi Sonya, Kris’s van is a Nissan 3500.
This was my Nissan NV3500. I no longer have it. My new one is smaller, a Ford Transit, medium roof.
I certainly applaud these type of people that defend themselves against homelessness due to economic injustice but, In this timeline now 2024 no one should have to live like a nomad unless they like traveling.
It is happening to thousands of us. Even renting a room in a private home begins at about $700 which leaves almost nothing for utilities and groceries.
God bless you precious lady I admire you so much!! If you ever make it to Northern New Mexico reach out I have a van and a good place to park. we can sit around a campfire and share stories
I am a senior and I wimplyh call this living within your means.
I am one of the lucky ones. In Quartzsite, AZ this winter, I met many people living in small cars, all were over 60 years old.
That was a fun video! How nice she volunteers and talked about her situation.
I had a wonderful volunteer gig this past season! I worked with camels for 2 weeks, helping folks of all ages hop on and off the camels. It was so much fun.
Love, you are not homeless! Your home is beautiful and nature is your yard.
Persons who are priced out of the housing market, are classified as homeless in order to get a clear picture of the need across the nation. It is important to be counted so that cities and states can allocate funds for shelter and review housing policies. One contributer to the lack of housing is the rise of Air BnBs. Cities like Eureka Springs can no longer meet the need of local workers to have housing because the beautiful, historic cottages are all BnBs.
Glad to hear your good experience....im going to be going out on the road travelig acrossvthe country soon too....i came across your channe.... thanks....
Have fun!
Thank you for this interview! What an absolutely adorable woman with a wealth of information. Beautiful. Hopeful. Who knows, I may be joining you ladies one day. God bless. 💪🏼🧠💖💯🙏🏼🕊️💖💯♾️
May it all go well for you!

Chris....you are Blessed Loved meeting with you . Stay well. Wish I could live as you do . Physical health keeps me from it. Keep enjoying your life . 😊 ! Love your van /home !! ❤ l
My thoughts are with you and I know you will make the right decisions for your situation. I do want to add that I have met vehicle dwellers who use walkers and canes and many who rely on generators to power CPAP equipment.
That set ( for passenger) will be perfect to make as a loo.
I love having passengers! And the toilet bench as is allows me to host camp parties with seating for 5 AND 4 pets!!
Vanessa, you are amazing! Your van is❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you, love. It is nice to be seen.
I Love this idea, it would be awesome to be sure to really encourage! And seek out to invite minority people ( inclusion!) As a minority myself we often don’t feel truly! welcomed, especially! When we don’t see very many of us! Great idea just please! Welcome and encourage black women to join.
Thank you so much for your comment. This is a really important point!
Thank you for sharing so generously. The 'invisible homeless' you describe is also a phenomenon here in Australia, with the fastest growing demographic being older women. This is the same demographic most likely to have nurtured children or other family members and volunteered in their schools and local community organisations. Yet a good proportion of them are not living in their vehicles by choice. They have been let down by societal and government values that continually take. We are in an age of corporate colonialism. Kudos to you for coping with the lows and celebrating the highs.
I wonder how this is going to turn out. In Thailand and Nicaragua, I observed entire communities of self-built shelter using scraps. Here in the US, there are millions of vacant buildings and abandoned malls, entirely vacant schools and hospitals. Yet we will not let the homeless avail themselves of the opportunity to use them for shelter.
How do I get to the links? Who is David that did the bed? Thanks for sharing ❤
Hi Pauline, David’s info is at Timberline Tiny Homes, which is on Facebook. (In the description of the video too : )
I really enjoy your videos❤ and learning so much more about my needs and wants to live the life I can enjoy. Thank you so much for sharing 🥰🌹🌸😇
Thank you so much for your comment, Pauline! You made my day! You CAN do it : ))))
Vehicle tours of nomads are always interesting/educational ... but the financial side is essential for those considering this life: - Cost of vehicle with mileage at time of purchase/when purchased - annual vehicle insurance costs & what that covers - breakdown of monthly expenses - some info on person’s budget/income if possible etc., etc.,
Yes - Marty - I totally agree. It’s helpful to see your questions laid out. Thank you for your comment!
Marty, my income is almost 900.00 per month. I do not pay for camp grounds. I have the required liability insurance. I am fortunate to be on my son's phone plan. I make two trips across the nation per year. Around 7,000 miles totally annually. I hope that helps.
@@krispavek221 Thank you
Hi Im new to nomads and love watching the videos about older women who build out their own vans which I would love to do one day! waiting on a email from nomadsdowntheroad, so I can Join and get more info. Im so excited!
Welcome aboard!
Thanks for the reviews on the items you showed!
My pleasure!
Thank you for bringing these to our attention. I have found this product in my research. I purchased a ridged suitcase 100 watt panel, but I am looking for a lighter option to add to my system. I also have an older class b with a fiber class high top so ridged panels will not work on the roof of my class b. Thank you for taking the time to create this video. I hope our paths cross again some were down the road. Safe travels.
You are very welcome! I am glad it was helpful. I was pleasantly surprised by how light the panel is. Safe travels!
Love the April cornel.
I miss it!

I just watched your video Kris. I have to commend you. I love your attitude towards the invisible homeless. Very educational. Happy trails Kris.
Thank you! And best wishes to you.
Awesome thanks for sharing ❤
Gurl, you got me crying. I’m so ready to do this “van life”. I was living in my 2012 Nissan Altima on and off for four years on and off with my 22 year old son. We both were homeless. Right now I’m still homeless staying with a friend renting a room from her. I do plan on getting me a van for sure!!! Stay strong boo❤
I think women of a certain age living in vans are not homeless. We are differently homed. After a certain age it's not fun taking care of a place cleaning and dealing with the maintenance the day in and day out yard work none of it is a good time. Sitting around a campfire with a bunch of like-minded women now that sounds like a kick in the pants. I'm building out my van right now I've been dreaming of it for about 8 years and I finally get to do it I'm so thankful
I am glad you had options and chose vehicle dwelling willingly. Have fun out there. Several people died this year in their cars and vans.
Dave a saint.
Love the holes in the bed frame / board for circulation. Thanks for the info 😊
Your sink is Beautiful 🤩
Agreed!
This is one of the best! Love her setup. Love it’s not all the electrical everywhere! Hope we are able to get update soon on Kris and the new build.
I thinknot would be really cool if he used glow in the dark paint and painted stars on the celing. So clouds by day and galaxies at night.
That would be AWESOME!
Not homeless, unhoused by choice , my home is 1994 dodge ram van and I’m free, and able to do my life my way , 1 year this month 🎉
Congratulations, Marietta!
I would want her as my therapist. She seems easy to talk to and a really together person. It's nice to see people be able to live on the road and have a job too.
You are horseless, but you have a home.
I am homeless. This is not by choice. There is no state in the USA in which I could pay rent.
Is it OK for an old person to get to an hairdresser once a year
You need a little Hoosier cabinet!! That's what they're called.
"Every woman knows what these are. Baby wipes." Not every woman chooses to be a baby factory.
But I bet you knew what they were.😊
Steve you are so wonderful. I feel the love you have for everything! Inspiring. Hope to meet you on the road someday. I just got my first van and i am building her out myself with help from friends. "Dora", myself and my dog Flower will be on the road soon.
Fantastic!!!! May you and Dora and Flower be VERY VERY happy!
I love this tour...absolutely right there with you!

Very nice. I am currently building out my minivan and documenting on my youtube channel. I am.looking at adding a swivel seat too. Thanks
