    Years ago the lady who made those biscuits at Loveless was on Paula Deen’s show. Paula thought she was going to find out the recipe but the chef came with the ingredients pre mixed😂

      I agree. Memphis isn’t a safe area. Come to East Tennessee! Cades cove. Townsend.

      That’s right. Scammers and murderers galore! Go over the bridge to Arkansas and out into the country sides but not in the city.

    Girl you need to get a proper backpacking sleeping bag & sleeping pad! There are some super packable and lightweight options nowadays. I can’t believe all you have is a fleece blanket for freezing temps! 🥶

    Five second rule, take the skin off. No big deal. Or, just eat in the restaurant and enjoy not having any dishes or trash!

    Travel tip: always use the airport restrooms bc if enough ppl use the plane restroom bf the flight takes off they will have to refill the water to the level It’s supposed to be at take off and you will have a flight delay. Always use airport bathroom first.

    You're better than me. I would've gone in and bought another piece even if it was $20. 😅

    Hey Nomi, welcome to Tennessee!!! I was born and raised here in good ol Tennessee. I’m so excited you’re visiting. I was so disappointed when you were going through the mountains of Virginia and said you would not do the Tennessee mountains so I’m glad you found your way here in spite of those mountains.
    I hope Nashville is on their best behavior and treats you well. Stay safe and enjoy your stay. I can’t wait to see what you check out next. So good to recognize the surroundings on your video, you picked a good time to come. It’s beautiful here with all the trees turning colors and haven’t lost all their leaves just yet. Peace and love to you. ❤

    Nomi, What an adventure your life is! My husband and I are 65 years old and have just moved to a Tiny home community in East TN. We have wanted to do the Southern state move since we were in the early 20’s but our Adult children could not do without us. Finally we just decided to take the plunge and just visit our children. It is quite an adventure also. Enjoy your visit.

    This is why I follow you! I love to solo travel. I have 4 more years until I retire and then I’ll be exploring Europe for 1-3 years then back to the States to road trip in a van or suv for a while. Thanks for taking us along, I can’t wait to see your adventures!

    Usually if you explain to the person working at the restaurant what had happened, they would replace it lol... Great Vid!

    The Uber drivers and Lyft drivers I had in Vegas were so awesome, they were all so nice, other than Vegas I’ve only used an Uber driver once from Detroit metro to my home, he was also very kind and such good drivers
    So thank you to all Uber and Lyft drivers, you are so helpful

    Don't count out Airbnb's while you're doing your trial run. They discount stays over 7 days, and you can cook😊. Enjoy your backpacking adventures!

    Next time go inside the restaurant and tell them what happened and ask for another piece. They would most likely accommodate you with a new piece

    I did the SUV Jeep life for 3 years and loved it. I hung out in Memphis Tennessee for a a few weeks during the beginning of Pandemic. I loved stealth camping all around the country. I'm enjoying watching your travels especially seeing someone else navigate the Nomad lifestyle while I sit back and have fun watching. Thanks for sharing ❤

    A cheap Walmart twin size air mattress used now to sleep on in the SUV will make your later years (50+) a lot more comfortable from a health perspective. Stay safe and looking forward to your future adventures.

    When you visit Memphis definitely check out the national Civil rights museum and other historic sites... that's city is filled with history.

    Hey!! Nomi, double check all of the reigns overseas that's in your travel list and find out about the electric outlets, because the plugs are very different from the United States and you WILL NEED TO USE a converter for all of your equipment

  • @deitralh
    @deitralh 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Welcome to Tennessee! I'm 2 hours west of Nashville and 1 hour east of Memphis. Please do not stealth camp in Memphis. It is not safe. Do not stay or linger near Elvis Presley's home. I would definitely get a hotel room in downtown Memphis.

    • @deitralh

  • @smlove9918
    @smlove9918 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Girl, you're in the south. You should have picked it up and returned it to the restaurant for a replacement. 9 times out of 10 they'll replace it. Nothing beats a failure but a try.

  • @laurab7379
    @laurab7379 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +24

    I hope your RV is parked in a safe place while you are gone! I think that is a great idea to get another vehicle, an SUV would be nice for these trips and you can get the window tinted and make it up like you like it and put your things in the trunk that you will use on the road, cooler, a small portable cooker, they have them you can plug into the cigarette lighter, water, dry goods, things you need but you don't have to move from your RV to the vehicle! Spare clothes ,blankets pillow all the stuff. Yeah for you! Great video!

    Hi Nomi!! I haven't been able to visit your channel for awhile. I'm so excited at how much your channel has grown. I subscribed when you had about 60 subscribers. So I am super old school.

Always praying for your safety 🙏🏾❤

    I love Tennessee! Lookout Mountain is beautiful, if you are down that way. The Santa Fe looks like a really cool SUV! Btw, and I hate to give you bad news, but tinted windows just keep sunshine out during the day, they don't prevent people from seeing in at night if there is light on inside the vehicle. So when you want privacy, just turn the lights off and you'll be good.
