Love that Debra is always smiling and laughing. She must be so pleasant to be around.
I certainly have my moments but most of the time I am 💯 happy! 😍
I've always loved that about Debra, too. And that she's genuine and down-to-earth. What she says and does can be trusted vs. someone making videos only to get clicks and make money. KOKO
The stories of everyone helping each other are the best kinds of stories! I just ❤ it!
Debra is a wonderful lady, she shares the good with the bad. People should go watch her channel from the beginning to appreciate what she has been through and how far she has come, such an inspiration!
Wow, Gramma Kat! That was so nice. Thank you! ❤🙏🏼
Those old RV's are amazing when restored!
So glad to hear you are happy, Debra. Wishing you more happiness ahead.
Thank you, Colleen 😍
she's a natural on camera.
She has such a cute home.
Such a nice lady! She is so grateful for everything...as it should be for everyone. Thank you for the tour!!!
What a beautiful, loving, giving, cheerful, Happy LADY!!
Love Ya Debra!

Oh, I just love Debra! Thanks for sharing her great Class C with us!!!

Wow! Thank you so much for this and thank you for hopping over. :))
Great home, what a nice upgrade from the van.

@@authordebradickinsoni am new to van vudeos, as a reiki crystal and fossil healer , I would love to travel to people
@@authordebradickinsoni have so enjoyed tour happy demeanor, gratitude is everything … sending love and light
Nice tour
Love your home Debra!!! You did an awesome job. Bandit was so cute throwing his toy and playing and Cody looking around saying where are the treats. 😍
Hi Rene! Thank you!
You may consider installing a vent cover over the fantastic fan to interrupt the rain sensor feature. Theyre pretty inexpensive.
I have one. It closes anyway. 🤪🤦🏻♀
what about a piece of duct tape over the sensor?
What a great story!
Funnily, after yesterday's video, Tiki's tour came up as a follow-up, so I watched that as well. I wonder what she thinks of all the changes and improvements! (I notiythe corner bed piece Tiki was so proud of was taken out). A lot of great work inside!
Tiki and I are friends. She has never been anything but encouraging and supportive of me. Funny ... the corner bed piece is one of the few things I have NOT changed. I'm wondering what it is you are seeing. It's still there. Tiki and I both put our heart and soul into this rig. I'm glad you like the work we did. Thank you so much! 👍🏼😍
@@authordebradickinson I loved both the original, and all of the changes that you have made to make it "Yours". I've often wondered if Tiki is still living in her 5th wheel. Where can we catch up with what she's doing now?
Lovely! ...it never ends, the maintenance and upgrades.
it was so nice to meet you at City of Rocks
Hi Juliane! Truth ... and I suppose that's true with any home we own ... s&b or otherwise. Sure do love mine tho!
Hi I am Suzi! You are welcome in Michigan if you want a place to visit! Much love to you Giving things forward! So much information here! Thank You for sharing!!!
Great story❤

So glad to have you back! Blessings to you across the pond! :))
I'm so thankful the world has Debra--and Bob--in it! Thanks for all you both do to help and inspire others.
Beautiful
I remember watching the first video about Debra years ago. I'm so glad she is doing so good. She is such an inspiration for us all, especially us older women.
Glad you're still here and watching Bob's channel. KOKO! :))
Ordered your 1st book and love your home
Wow! Thanks so much! I appreciate that. 🥰🙏🏼
I love what you have done with your home.
Thank you so very much.
I just adore your laugh. What a great inspiration.
😍

Wow 🤩 I’m really impressed it’s nice in there I love it‼️Debra you’re such a beautiful lady keep smiling and many more blessings your way‼️🙏

That is just an amazing retrofit. Definitely one of the best I’ve seen and the base vehicle is super cool! 😙👌
Awhhh, thanks so much!
Wow! What an inspiration! She has such a infectious smile and up attitude, especially considering all that’s happened to her! Someone who is undoubtably a joy to be around! A stunning example of the power of positive thinking! it is even reflected in her appearance!
Thanks so much!
😂lovely video and informative 😂
I just bought one of Debra’s books while watching this video. I wish her every good thing.
Thank you for the book purchase! :))
You are Awesome !! And still as Beautiful as ever!!
Awhhh! Thank you!
Love this ❤ Thank you for being such an inspiration to us all ❤
Blessings to you!
OMG! I love that you two go a decade back! I watched the Movie Nomadland quite a while ago! Amazing to see she was in there! I'm happy to see that Debra is doing well and her health has been stabilized with this lifestyle
I love the idea of having a dedicated power station and solar panels for the starlink. I'd love to know which bluetti Debra used. I have a 200max and would happily save to purchase a smaller one for the starlink. Great video.
Hi Billy. The Bluetti I have dedicated to powering my Starlink is the AC50S, 500Wh. I found that 100W of solar was not enough so that's why I power the Bluetti with two 100W panels. I hope this helps. KOKO!
Always love seeing you and Debra. 💗
Thank you, Mary! :))
Bob, it was great meeting you in January at the RTR! Debra, I am sad to say I never made it over to your booth in Quartzsite. Due to issues back home in Texas I had to leave early. Maybe next year! Debra I know you’ve had your rake for a while, but I am glad to see the upgrade from your old van. I remember when it was air bones. Safe travels! ❤️👩🦼🚍👍🏻
I hope to see you next year and hope all worked out well in Texas. Blessings!
Love this!
such a inspiring woman. love what you've done with your camper van home
A real joy to see how Debra is doing. She is so much better than when I saw her a long time ago. Thanks Bob.
I Love how Debra says I am Blessed over & over❤😊
I think it drives some people crazy, but it is truly how I feel. :))
Great set-up lovely lady her favourite words are I'm blessed 🤣
I would live in that RV, it's beautiful. Debra, you did a wonderful job of bringing it back to life.
Thank you. I love my home very much. :))
I remember when you and Bob did the first interview way back you’ve come a very long way Debra your such a fighter. Thank you for your inspiration 😊
Those were the days! Glad you're still here and watching Bob's channel. KOKO!
Debra...yout enthusiasm is contagious!
Awesomeness! :))
She's been thru so much. so, I'm so glad things are going a little better for her, I love how she's got it fixed up inside.
Thank you!
She's such a positive soul and inspiration. Thank you for sharing her story.
I plan to live on the road and maybe our paths will cross.
She is such a beautiful, bubbly woman that I’d like to have lunch with her someday (my treat, of course).
Debra’s rig is a mix of old and new,,,,,
Whatever the set up, she seems to be comfortable and happy in it….
It was a pleasure to meet her and see her and her pups
Great video
Nice I get social security too I also live in a RV nice to meet you all
Debra is a beautiful soul. May your life take you into many safe and soulful journeys Debra.
Thank you!
This. This is what I hope to be doing at some point this year. This is EXACTLY what I want to do; find an older class C and go from there...
Best wishes to you!
Beautiful makeover, remember watching her when she got the Starship. Lots of good ideas, lots of good friends helping her along the journey. Glad to see her happy. Yes, please go an update like you do with Dee. Keep the vids coming. 👍✌️👍
Wow that class c fixed up really nice! Love all the windows and the counter. It has a very cozy vibe to it, looks very comfortable to be in! Also I loved Bandit's cameos what a cute puppy
Bandit is the best. Glad you like my home. Thanks a bunch! :))
This is a woman after my own heart! I also have a "Used-But-New-To-Me" 1984 Class-C. Mine is a GMC 3500 Citation Supreme. I am extremely grateful as well as lucky. From motor to camper, my R.V. was in immaculate shape! I thought I had all of my ideas in place for what I wanted to do for living condition renovations. However, Debra has possibly changed my mind about some things. She's given me some ideas that I now have to sit and ponder about. Great ideas!, that I should add. I'm heading to her channel now. Thanks Bob so much for everything that you do for our community!
Yay you! I looked your model rig up and it is a lot like mine! :)) Thanks for hopping over to my channel and best wishes with your renos. Happy and safe travels!
Not only has Debra come a long way, but so has Bandit. He has his own story of how they rescued each other. Loved the tour, Bob and Debra. And I love your channels. Check out Debra's. You won't be disappointed. She's a hoot.
This is so sweet. Thank you, rebelgirl7289!
Oh, and thank you too for the shoutout to my wee Bandit. :))
Such a shining star!!
I really love what you did with the front of the vehicle. That loft space always looks so dark and imposing. No one has ever shown an alternative and it really changes the look of the entire rv.
Thank you, Lisa! I had so many people tell me it wouldn't work, and it turned out even better than I had hoped! :))
I love love love this! 🥰
Debra you are Amazing, and I love your Spirit! You are always so appreciative of everything you have and who gave them to you! We could all learn a lot from you! So happy for you that everything has come together for you! You are Alive & Happy!!❤
I am alive and very happy. :)) Thank you for the kind words.
Good video! Her rig reminds me a lot of the video you did on Tiki and her rig. A lot of inside resemblance. :)
Good eye! It is the same rig. Tiki sold it to friends of mine and they sold it to me. We covered that story in more depth in the interview Bob did. I think it went up on Wednesday - 9 Years of Freedom on Social Security: A Nomadic Story of Healing and Resilience
Cody is such a gentleman! really nice set up👍
Beautiful woman. She's done well and gratitude seems to be her attitude.
Great video! Debra Dickenson is delightful...I've been a subscriber of her channel for many years. Her FNL 's are full of joy and sometimes heart felt tears. Debra is 100% Grade A!!! Thanks Bob for interviewing Debra, again. Great video! 🕊
Awhhh, thank you dewdropn. MUAH!
Debra is very inspirational!
Bless her!
Debra is one of the best full time nomads - such a great person! Love her You Tube channel too! And is a wonderful author! Thanks for the video, Bob!
Thanks for the kind words, Kate!
What a lovely lovely lady. I wish her nothing but all the love and happiness in the world.
Thank you!
I did watch the interview, then I read the book. It's so inspiring, thank you for spotlighting Debra for a new audience.
Thank you for the book purchase! HugZ and blessings to you!
I love it - Excellent build - Thank you for sharing.
Most inspiring woman. And such a beautiful outlook on life. Lovely camper😊
I really like the desk counter and chair. Nice oven and fridge.
So Wholesome
Classic RV literally iconic and legendary
Wow! Thanks!
I love watching the updates of the people you have previously interviewed. Thanks for all the tips you give.
Beautiful home, beautiful lady. Best to you!❤
She’s a real trooper and I’m happy for her
