  • My goal is to see as many states in the United States and to do that I travel by van which is my home on wheels. I live in a van full-time. My ultimate goal is to visit as many countries as possible outside of the US and to do that I fly. I go from vanlifer to a nomad. On this channel, you get a mix of everything. You get full-time vanlife, and you get a nomad who travels by air, land and sea. My life is unpredictable and adventurous.

    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.

      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.

    Girl .. why didn’t you just pay for another day? It’s a business expense anyway .. sleeping on the floor of the airport when you have a safer/healthier option? Why? So you got to experience houselessness at the airport since I am sure the benches there were hostile? Traveling with no sleep is so dangerous .. for you and others on the road. My dad would call those decisions pennywise pound foolish. Please spend the money to be safe and responsible. Missing sleep like that when you have other options is no good for your body or mind. Ok nagging done. Happy new year😊❤

    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).

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I relocated from Washington DC to Dallas, TX in search of a more peaceful way of life 1 year ago.
    Your videos remind me that I made the right decision! Thank you, keep doing what you’re doing, and may God continue to bless you!

    I am so sorry that this happened to you, but I would have stayed because they got my $81. The nerves of people. The worst part is they should have given you a wake up call or something to remind you. This be the stuff that makes me upset. But I am still glad you had a good time in my hometown. You can always get Garrett mailed to you if you will be stationed for a few days. . Happy New Year to you.🎉🎉

      You would have had to pay for another night. That $81 was only the late check out fee. Hotels don’t call to remind you of your checkout unless you request that. And they probably charge something for that now days.

    81 dollars is a hefty late fee. How come you didn’t just pay to stay an extra night?

  • @G.Photogirl
    @G.Photogirl 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

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

    • @sahnie82
      @sahnie82 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Is it though? It’s during the holiday season when businesses make a bulk of their money. 🤷‍♀️ It’s on the person staying to plan their travel to include enough time to pack and leave.

      Being the holidays it could have affected them cleaning the room in time for the next booking. Usually hotels are understanding of mistakes.
