That is very sweet of you to say :) wishing you well
make an amazon wishlist girl! my first thought when you mentioned the water pump breaking on you was 'let some sim* get another one for you' lmao
thanks for suggestion ! Probably a good idea anyway so I can start organizing what I’ll be needing for my next road trip (currently working in nyc) while living in the van to save up so money to pay for my life lol

tip here! if you want to maximize the benefits of each serum you use i would apply the exfoliating serum at nighttime and the snail mucin one morning time <3
thank you! I actually typically apply exfoliating serum morning and night … that was what the Sephora lady recommended for my pores. Maybe that is overkill and I should just do night time ??
@@nocturnalfields depends on it’s strength of acids but especially since you’re outdoors a little more than the average person I’d stay on the safer side (they aren’t well trained in products and the more you use the more you have to buy so that’s mostly their agenda)
❤your so calming Very interesting person also funny bless you and thanks for sharing ❤
Dawww you are sweet, thank you!
I just ..... won't comment what I'm thinking.
then stop thinking and shooshoo child.

wow hello!

Hearing you brush your hair was painful. That isn't the noise you want when you brush, you're ripping hairs, badly.
Lol I can understand that. I was in a rush for the wedding and was unkind to my hair for sure. I’m typically more intentional and slow with my brushing promise hehe x
only liked your comment for the algorithms i don't agree with your tone lmao
crazy breakfast, must be hella nutritious tho! cheers!
Lol yeah, it’s yummy I swear !
Thank you for opening my eyes to the Van life. You kept my interest and relaxed me. Thank you and you’re doing great 🖤

I'm living in my van tonight since the 4th of June 2024
Driving around the US is fun
That’s awesome! It really is so fun and liberating to adventure and see the country. Wish you well and safety on your new journey x
it’s my dream to live in a van
Feel this ! It was a dream of mine as well for so long and I feel very grateful to be following this path and wish you the best on yours , perhaps life will bring you to the road one day x
BTW. Noticing this was a Day ago? How was the Wedding?
Thank you for your comment and all your words. I wish you well and peace on your health journey as you traverse through life. As for the wedding it was fun! Open bar a good friend food and some dancing. Can’t complain :)
Starting off just fine. You'll do well, don't worry. You have friends here, and I have faith in you. Years ago, I lived in several abandoned buildings and homes, and eventually had a Toyota Corolla. Lived in it with my dog over my last year of off grid living. Only reason I'm still not doing it is I have Multiple Sclerosis now, no family and support, or transportation. Off grid living was the last time in life I felt Peace and was happy. Met so many others doing the same. Found so many Free Camping Locations online, Truck Stops offer showers, used Walmart, Lowe's,etc. to cleanup most mornings. Only regret was not having a bigger vehicle and returning back to city life. Believe me, still dreaming every night to find a way to go back. You're very lucky to have this opportunity, my friend. The first year, you learn and discover so many things and new people all over the world. Keep traveling. Stay inspired. New friends here will appreciate you more and more for being the best you can be. You ARE amazing. Believe that. Know that. And YOU make a difference in this world; now and to so many more over time. Stay strong, stay beautiful. And strive everyday to go out there and change the world. 💙 😊

Thank you for the kind words x
im glad that you are happy on your adventure! Did you ever get that diesel heater i showed you? they are such a life saver. be safe and best of luck continuing your journey. 🤘
Hi there - thank you for the well wishes! I actually ended up doing a mr. Buddy propane heater due to convenience and mobility (needed it to be able to heat up two vans). But perhaps down the road the diesel will be the way.
"...I must belong to nowhere to belong to myself" great line.. raw words spoken
Thank you so much, appreciate your words <3
I'm a gal in NYC too now after living in the woods out west for awhile (in a car, in a tent) and can hardly pay for my riny room in Williamsburg. I miss nature and solitude a lot. Seeing this makes me wanr to leave too.... Congrats on your master's. That's a huge achievement. See you down the road!
it’s so expensive in nyc … it’s hard to think about all the money gone to rent 😢 hope some well needed nature and quiet is in your future friend :)
I got to this point. I HATE being in New York City. The older I get, the more I understand suburbs.
!! Yep , suburbs not looking so bad after all!
Just thinking ab what u had to as sit through during New Years...omg
As a new york native, i totally understand this feeling. Thank u sm for sharing
Thank you for your words !! New York can certainly take a toll
Come to europe or go to south east asia (thailand, indonesia, malaysia etc)... you can do way more Things with your money here and/or there
I definitely see myself exploring those countries one day! Just gotta get my degree first 😊
@@nocturnalfields ok great
Interesting recommendation from the TH-cam algorithm. I can see this channel growing on its own. It would be interesting that instead of you narrating this in third person, you did it in first person, in the form of thought's, I think most people don't, because they feel it would become self-centered.
Thank you for your words. I agree, and intend to share much more of my internal world from the first person (that is typically the perspective from which I write and create - very confessional) ! I don’t see it as self centered at all, I see it as honest and vulnerable :)
what a cool space you have! i hope you stay warm and safe and have lots of adventures 🤍
Thank you !! Recently purchased an electric blanket it is working wonders haha
@@nocturnalfields thats smart! they also make reusable hand and feet warmers 🤗 might be something to look into!
this was cool to watch fam
Im so glad! Thank you x
Thank you for the well wishes x
God bless you on your journey
