  It's a slow theft of public land and criminalization of homelessness. Ultimately the theft of private land as well. We must resist. Most won't see what's happening until it's too late.

  I just started my RV life a month ago and agree with what you bring to attention.  People really need to respect their surroundings and leave no trace. I have been very blessed to find a few amazing places but am still learning.

  Thank you for saying what I've been saying for over 30 years.  They system WANTS us to fight with each other so they can rape, rob, plunder, and pillage our resources.  This is just another avenue of targeting those who are less able to fight back, get everyone riled up at each other, and force those who choose this means of living back into the world where they can be controlled.  I'm on the edge of this.  I still own a house.  For how much longer.... who knows.  My Fiancé owns a house, and I'll be plenty happy for them to endure that headache.  Yes, I'm obviously going to pay my share of our living expenses when I move in.  I'm still building my bus.  I still intend to use it as our means of escape.  "Leave nothing behind" is a a mantra that I have and always have had when out in the wilderness.  I did this when I did my drive around Lake Michigan - which was a trip for the purpose of living in the vehicle with the intent of enjoying the freedom of moving about as if this was my life.  We will enjoy using my bus as a source to decompress and make happy memories of places traveled.  If - dog forbid our relationship explodes - my bus WILL become my home.  I love your channel as you keep it real.  A very real piece of me wants this kind of life as I'm tired.  I'm tired of putting on that face of "fitting in" when I clearly don't and am routinely alone in rooms filled with people. I'm tired of the upkeep of having a house full of material bullshit that makes my life look "normal". I'm tired of commuting. I'm tired of constantly swimming against the current of "getting out of debt" only to be kicked in the plums when actual progress is made, and immediately reversed and pushed even farther behind.  I want the simple happiness of a sunrise with a cup of coffee in a quiet place. That sunset feeling the first cool breath of air breaking the heat of the day. I want that decompressing feeling of enjoying that much desired solitude that is more fitting for who and what I am. You are a legitimately good soul and it's heartbreaking that you have to endure so much bullshit just so you can be you.  We all need to be allowed to exist and be us.  People need to leave those of us who want to do things right alone and deal with the rotten apples - period.

  It used to be accepted to sleep when one was no longer able to drive safely with confidence. Now, if you are a truck driver it's AOK. But if you are in an RV it is illegal to do the same in the same places.

  Bless you for making this video.  I sent it to one of our county council members here on Kauai.  She is running for mayor.  We have communities of homeless that instead of providing space for those who’d rather live mobile, we are criminalized and harassed.

  Girl, you have NO IDEA how happy I am to have found you! You’re a perfect combination of funny, cynical, educated, snarky, intuitive, inquisitive, no BS while calling out BS, that I have been looking for! And then one of the signs you used at the end is literally 5 minutes from where I slept last night! I’m 67 and widowed, can barely walk unassisted, and I live in my RV. Thank you for being that guy, the one who sees through the grift. Most of the real grifters are the ones making the rules while blaming the few who break them. All the while keeping us off balance so the truth never gets told. Thank you for being a truth teller! I’m here for it all!❤

  Thank you for your honesty. Van life is often romanticized and unfortunately that can lead to a lot of heartache for those who innocently stumble into a situation they were not prepared for. Best wishes for those who are brave enough to be living out their dreams.
