    Hi Nikki, it was so much fun meeting you and your Dad and of course, Camper. Thank you so much for including us in the video. Hope everything got straightened with the heater. See you next summer at the Yoga Camp. Kathy and Pierre Paul

    Every time I see your father in the vids you definitely have your father's sense of humor. Love it.

    My favorite quote of this video:"Nature doesn't have an ego". Love it! Be safe Nikki and give Camper a hug for me!

    As a home owner who just experienced their second sewer backup in two weeks I have to say, there is disaster everywhere. It's not just van life ;-)

    As much as i Love my 2019 sprinter 4x4, i Have had a nightmare of a time with dealing with Mercedes service and the vehicles endless electrical ghosts. This is my second sprinter and it seems the must have seriously cut costs with their engineering department on this one

    So glad your dad is with you, super stressful times are so hard to be alone through. Sucks when you get to be the parent without support dealing with stressful, scary stuff, remember to be there for him no matter in the future.

    Aside from the broken/ failed battery in the beginning, awesome video Nikki... your parents are an added value and great to see them comfortable with living w you in a van.

    The love you show to Camper is amazing. He knows that you are his person and that he can trust and count on you. You are an angel in disguise. ❤

    Videos with you and your Dad are always a wonderful experience. Quite the adventures! 💓 You're the same age as our daughter Lena.

    I love your relationship with your family, especially your mom and dad. Our loved ones are everything.

    Nikki, sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. EVERY vehicle will have problems if you wait around long enough. The key thing to do is keep everything in perspective. This isn't even your van, so you'll have all the gremlins to work out in your own rig too. It's just a part of the shakedown procedure. Keeping your sense of humor, and in your particular case, having a plethora of content that's directly van-life related delivered to you whether you like it or not, is just footage you don't even have to work hard for. That said, I hope your van treats you far better than this loaner has.
