    To my mind, this is the reason for the existence of the nomad community . . . helping people who have nothing or close to nothing to make an independent life for themselves. I would much rather watch an interview like this than one of a 20-something millionaire with a $300,000 rig and setup.

      It'd be so cool if you ran into her at the Rubbertramp Rendezvous or something and bought that walking stick. I like being alone too, but being with people I resonate with is wonderful for contrasting the time alone. Maybe you don't vibe with most people, but maybe you're also afraid of an idea in your head about people and pushing through that to grow your tribe a little could be great. Look at Bob, natural loner who has created such a huge community while maintaining his need for space. You can easily find space with vanlife, even in a busy place like the rendezvous. Dip the toe for an hour or two and then run away if you need to. It's good to push yourself sometimes, discomfort is the pathway to every worthy goal. The more you turn from social connection, the harder it becomes, dealing with other people is a practiced skill.

    You a can tell she’s new to the nomadic way of living because of the excitement she exudes. Even still, she’ll be like that for as long as she is living simply and within her means. We all can relate to the peace she feels living this way. I’m debt free with money to spare and I have never felt freer in my life.

      She’s in here in the comment section, her TH-cam channel is what she said in the video, something like unconventionalwolf. She said this was recorded about 10 months ago when she’d only been on the road for two months; and now she’s passed a year. She said things are still going well! I’m sure there’s a very big learning curve at first- but I would love to study the people who have been on the road the longest and are still happy with it!

    Her face and Essence really light up when she smiles. I love her walking stick in particular so perfect. Thanks Luna for the hope and inspiration.

    This was an interview I didn’t want to end. Kudos to the interviewer for great questions and Luna was just a breath of fresh air. Her vibe was so positive and I’m inspired by how resourceful she has been! Also the doggies were so cute! Sending much love to Luna and the crew and even though I don’t need a walking stick, I’m looking to buy one just to support ❤

  • @staroceans8677

    She seems like a sweet lady of circumstance, and it's unfortunate how many people have to make that decision in such a short period of time. I wish her well.
    Bob if there's any way that you can get her some kind of a pop-up tent affect so she could do a lot of outdoor stuff with some kind of shelter, perhaps you could donate that she could attach to the entrance of the van so she could extend her living space that would be such a blessing.
    I hope both her and your year gets better, and I hope people are generous to her needs.

    • @Cerez78

      She said that she had a pop up, but sold it because it's too physically demanding.

    The difference that this channel and others like it have made to the life of this blessed woman and other people like her is difficult to calculate, but if you spent 1 night sleeping homeless on the streets of any major American city in the cold and than spent the next night away from threat and danger, safe and warm, you would weep with the joy of it, WEEP WITH JOY! and with that bottom line, calculus has little to no meaning. BLESSED!

    Bob - You’ve been such an inspiration to so many having to pick themselves up, start all over again, know that they are not alone in this movement of survival in modern times. I’ve lived in a Class A rv, two older models but blessings to me, since 1999 thinking of it as a covered wagon reborn. I absolutely luv the freedom this lifestyle has given me while working then and now retired. I find it alarming as well as humbling so many have had to turn to living in their cars, vans, tents and even cardboard makeshifts in a country of such great wealth. Thankfully through your TH-cam videos and word of mouth you have inspired those in despair. May you find peace and joy throughout the year to come continuing to enlighten those struggling along the way.
    🎉 Happy New Year 2024 🎉

    Luna's outcome makes me smile because it gives me hope. Im currently between a rock & hard place due to being in disability after two strokes. Low income housing isn't an option due to a 7 year list and woman w children come first as shld be. I was priced out to rent even studios in the poorest part of Cali cost over a grand to rent and I barely get this each month to exist on. I have a 2004 Nissan frontier and was thinking of just finding a camper to start me off to I can save up to purchase a van. I just want to live what time i have left happy.
