I went from being millionaire to losing everything& living in my truck for 2yrs.I learned the famous quote: "What doesn't kill you makes u stronger" is true..Learned I had tremendous faith& resourcefulness.I'm doing really well now& know u will be soon 😇
@@jeffg3895 Over extended in biz when real estate crashed in 2010- Lost 2 apt buildings-Big home, too many bills, marital problems.In hindsight, should've had backup plans but I ignored signs, which are always there
@@davidkeith7087 I think the best thing that ever happened to me was losing everything. I always had a family that would bail me out of everything. They finally just got sick of it and cut me off. I promised myself I would never been in that situation again. I’m in recovery and I did it to myself. But losing money only made me stronger. I’ve since gotten sober and repaired those relationships. I’ve been able to keep a roof over my head and pay for all of my bills by myself. I know that sounds so stupid because I should’ve done that years ago. I am grateful that it happened. I wish you the very best!
I live Vanlife here in Hawai’i currently, in total the last 6 or 7 years. California was by far the hardest place as a nomad/on the road, regardless of which type of vehicle. The state laws make it really difficult, finding a place to park overnight is tough. If I did have to recommend a spot, a little north of Malibu in the mountains is where I typically park when I’m traveling thru, but down south in San Diego there’s a huge community of vanlifers if you ever feel lonely or wanna make some friends. Stoked to come across your channel. Keep creating and sharing your journey 🖤
@@nomadicheadspace5334 It’s cool in SD, but there’s definitely better cities for Vanlife outside of California. Baja down south in Mex, Bend in Oregon, Olympic in Washington & Crested Butte in Colorado & most of Idaho to name a few. SD is a good time tho
@@kylejayy Thanks man. I heard San Diego was pretty bad. I'm having great luck in Long Beach right now on. I'm not sure how long it will last but this is the only place in LA County thats been so cool. I heard PCH around the malibu area was good but Im not sure if its changed recently. They are all scrambling to make new laws to get us out lol Northern Arizona, Flagstaff is a good spot too.
You are on the RIGHT PATH regardless of how harsh it might be at the moment. Just stumbled upon your video from 2 weeks ago today and heard your comment about NOT going the “Sugar Daddy” route. That shows a lot of good personal INTEGRITY and good moral values. I can see good things in your future. We all have a story and we all make mistakes. Stay positive and keep trudging forward. It will get better and happy belated birthday. Cheers. One more tip. If you would like to maximize room you can take your car to a dealership close by and they can definitely help you remove your backseats in a few minutes for free to give you full access to your trunk and more “sleep room”. I’ve been traveling up and down the west coast. Sold everything being semi retired and taking a few years vacation. I’ll checkout your other tips on traveling. Thanks for the great interesting videos.
Man your videos hit home, I was in a horrible relationship and just had a baby at the time and walked miles ...... Ugh I hate those memories but I acknowledge that's how I made my wonderful life what it is today. Blessings to you. Great things are coming your way❤️
Right everyone is saying don’t shorten your videos , please don’t. Just say n do what you want, there’s no rules. People love you for you so don’t worry and keep putting out the honest day in the life videos etc. I think they help folks who are in the same situation and you might notice a lot of women who WANT to go take the leap to do car/ van life! I am hoping to someday, I see it as a positive ❤️🌸
You should create an Amazon store and then put links to the stuff you have bought for your car life. You will make a little money on anything anyone buys thru your links. They have to buy within 24 hours though, once they put it in their cart. Doesn't cost them any more than direct thru Amazon. Win, Win, the links help those new to car life and you with a little extra income.
@@jenncarr5376 I'm not sure, I've just seen other UA-camrs talk about it on their channels. One channel specifically is Minivan Lee. Maybe she could help if you reach out to her on her channel. Good luck!
I am sure you will succeed Ari. You have such a kind heart. We all pass through adversity but it is how we choose to look at life that makes the biggest difference. Don’t ever stop shinning your amazing light. Keep going girl, loads of love ❤️
I know there are some van lifers and also people that live in small older rvs that have some apps that tell them place they can camp at that are safe idk the site or maybe you have been told about it already. I just found your page and I’m cheering you on. I have always had a little depression but the last year I really started to struggle with depression and anxiety so I can relate to you. It looks like you are getting lots of attention on YT congratulations 🎉 I’m sure you know already but I just want to say be careful as you get more popular on who to trust. Heck yeah you can find anything on Amazon lol.I’m excited to see your journey. As you get more subscribers the trolls and “perfect “ people come out too to bash and tell you everything you’re doing wrong or whatever anyways stay strong 💪 don’t let those people get you down don’t worry about having to explain yourself to them all because most of the critics aren’t here because they like you they are her because that’s what they get off doing so smoke a j and relax 🙃🙂
Your video just popped up. I don’t know where to start, but your story has really touched my heart. Stay strong and don’t worry about what anyone thinks or says. The main thing is you have Jesus in your heart. Without him we have nothing. Just remember your not alone. Stay safe!!!
Your videos are no way too long, in fact just about perfect. I follow a number of channels with van lifers etc. and they always talk about Walmart being a place to park, I work at Home Depot and you will not be bothered if you overnight park, just park on the outskirts, at my store we usually have a couple of 18 wheelers and anywhere up to 6 campers of various types.
Cheering you on girl! Found your videos today and I’m hooked on your energy and attitude. Sending you all the light, love and little bit I can do to help my fellow human. Thank you for being such an inspiration to us all. One love ✌🏽
What I've learned is nothing last forever. I was homeless for 3 years when I moved from north Carolina to Kentucky and I've been living in an apartment for 8 years and hope to improve more in my life. Everyone got a season hardship but everyone gets to bear their fruit 🍓 from that season
Just subscribed. Sucks that you’re living in your car, but looks like you’re making the best of it. UA-cam is a huge community, so I’m sure you’re gonna get a lot of support. And you’re also going to inspire others who are struggling and finding themselves homeless, especially during these hard times. Life has gotten to expensive after the pandemic that those who were struggling before the pandemic have found themselves in even worse situations now. I’m sorry that you have no family or friends to lean on. I hope that through this community you can find trustworthy people whom you can eventually call your friend and family. Keep on smiling and spreading love to the world!! You will reap what you sow, so keep being positive and spreading it for others to catch.
Hi beautiful!! Let me just tell you how incredibly inspired and in awe I am of you... your positivity, your resourcefulness, your heart, your energy, you radiate so much love, grace and beauty. You have inspired me in so many ways. Thank you for shining your light and making this world a better place! I pray for Gods richest blessings and providence over your life 💗 you really are an incredible soul!
I live in Portland. We have a BIG house less community here. There are lots of places where people park in their van or car, and most businesses are cool with it. We also have a lot of resources and laws to protect the homeless here. I love your vibe and energy. Truly inspiring me to simplify my life and refocus on what’s important to me… my faith and nature 💗💗💗 keep rockin girl
After my divorce I lived in my car for almost a year. It was a struggle. Then I embraced the van life upgraded to a used Mercedes sprinter so I can stand up. I work seasonal jobs and travel when and where I want to. Upgraded my vehicle was the best decision I made. Have you ever thought of getting a taller vehicle so you can stand?
I can really relate to alot of the stories here. Except I feel like mine maybe worse. I was a former business owner, married and doing well and happy until I got very ill. I had a horribly painful condition. Had to walk away from my business and husband passed 2 yrs later leaving nothing. Living on disability was hard enough but as yrs went by rents grew beyond my income. I was always a month away from homelessness til it finally happened...was supposed to go live w ex-alcoholic sister who bugged out last minute. Met a guy online looking for a roommate bc he was getting older and he bugged out last minute after inviting me to move in and I had driven 5 states, nice. Car living w a small dog and cat. My cat got lost after staying overnight w a psycho friend...I'm still 💔. So, being older, alone, bad back....finally found small apt 6 states away, I know no one here, back to having a slumlord that doesn't fix things...almost ready to go back on the road...I really want my own house but prices are crazy.
I am so proud of you! And excited to see you journey. I'm sending you lots of love and prayers. I hope you feel how many people out here love you and want to see your success. Looking forward to your next video!!
Interesting how by the way you speak, look, carry yourself etc- I would never guess you're in this situation. Goes to show you never know what people are going through. I've dealt with depression most of my life (I'm 30) and it's become worse over the last couple years. No one has caught on and I've only told a few people over the years. All of which were surprised and had no idea. Point is- you never truly know. I know times are hard for you but not only do you have a great personality but apparently making videos is your thing. I can already tell you're going to do really well on this platform so early congrats 👏
Nobody can believe she is in this situation. When you are so pretty life is so easy. I cant understand how a model like her can be homeless more than a day.
Thank you for just being vulnerable and authentic! You’re so brave for what you do, I pray to God that he protects you out there, and opens new doors for you soon! My wife, and I, would love to be your friends, sending you my blessings 🙏🏼
First of all Happy belated Birthday. Just recently came across your videos.You are such an amazing person and have a great outlook on life, even in the situation you are in. That says a lot about the type of person you are. I have been binge watching your videos. The part of this video about the Sugar Daddy really had me laughing. You definitely don't NEED one of those. I have a feeling you are going to be a very successful person. I really hope you get more subs and get your videos monetized soon, that would really help you out tremendously. I will continue to pray for you and watch your journey. God bless you
As a Law Enforcement Officer in CA, close to where you are (Different County). I understand security has a job to do but if you’re tidy and keep everything clean I’m cool with it. Not going to kick anyone out especially in the middle of the night. Stay safe out there and keep on truckin! A travel van would be sweet for sure. Btw I’ve been enjoying the videos 🤘🏽
You seem so kind. I'm living in my car in nor cal and I live in fear everyday of getting in trouble for being somewhere I'm not supposed to be...or just really for any reason... I haven't one year old German shepherd with me... The love of my life, I'm always terrified something will happen and I'll end up losing him...
I actually had quite a few positive experiences with police officers and sheriffs deputies when I was living iny car in 2017/18. I was discreet and tidy and most of the times that I was asked to move, I was given a few tips on places that might be better for at least the rest of the night. Thanks to you, too RW.
@Makki LOL youre really crazy, big hater. She explained her lovable grandpa past away.....REMEMBER! There are 2 grandpas and 2 grandmas LMAO Makki the crazy hater
Ari, I talked to my niece. I asked her if you could park on her block safely (she lives in LA), and she said no. She said for you to look at car camping in Silverlake, Echo Park, Malibu & El Segundo. She said to PLEASE stay away from Venice Beach, Santa Monica and inner city LA, as they are seriously cracking down. Also, she is going to find out about an app that, get this: it shows all the places you can car camp where you won’t be bothered. She said she & her ex used it all the time when they were traveling around by car.
Wow ur sister is awful. If a gal was alone living in her car $hit I would let them park in my drive way. Tell ur sister way to have a sisterhoods back.
I'm proud of you and the attitude you have. I know you will have days when you get down, but I know you can stay strong! We are living in crazy times. It is so sad that each and every working American cannot afford what they need, the basics of life. Thanks for the videos and stay safe!
Ari. I feel ya girl. I’m am throwing the most best wishes your way … I am finally moving out of so cal. I understand all you are going through. The hard times, build strength and character….humility and graciousness., and most of all…. You learn to not judge people, Kindness and understanding to all. YOU are , and will be the most best kind of person that will bless anyone who gets to know you. Thank you, You inspire me.
Just found your channel recently, I cannot imagine what you are going through right now, and with no support system available some more. For that, I think you are very strong and admire your strength. Hope your channel will grow huge and all the best!
I connect with you more than I do with other people that are living in their cars or vans because you need to do this to pay your bills and save a little cash during this recession I've been there and know how hard it is and you are doing a great job.
@@clickclackbang18 I don't think anyone that is living in their vehicles is being picky choosey. How about you pray practicing a little compassion and not being judgemental.
The world is truly a wonderful place, you're homeless but seeing all the outpouring support from strangers ,the words of encouragement is a sight to behold. I'm praying that your situation gets better keep producing content as the updates are interesting and keeps us engaged . Best of luck 🤞
I'll get down voted to oblivion and called a sexist pig. Now that that's out of the way, why do a lot of women these days enjoy being SO independent? To the point it sometimes leads them to live like this. Why can't they settle down, find a decent husband, live life in a humble way? There are plenty of good guys out there. Don't have to be so alone.
Thanks for the links to the car curtains. This is to all your supporters. Thank you for showing this beautiful person what love and humanity is all about. I don't know her but, her story relates to many of us. There will always be ups and downs in life but, knowing that there are still people in this world that truly care. God bless you all.
Hi Ari, I came across you by accident really & your story really touched me. I live on the east coast of Scotland & send huge hugs & love. I think it’s an absolute disgrace that in 2022 your situation is what it is but the way you seem to be coping is testament to your character. You’re one brave, tough woman. Not everyone is as resilient. It’s such a positive quality. I’m going to stick with you on your journey & have now subscribed. Stay safe Katie from Fife, Scotland
My car has dark tinted windows, but what I did when I was living in my car I bought black fabric and made curtains and added that to the inside of my car. From the outside people could not look in because it was so dark because of the black tint and the black fabric behind it. Sometimes it was very hot in the summer time . I would run the AC on for a while but because the AC would suck up the gas I could not run it all night. Therefore I bought mosquito net at the hardware store and put the mosquito net on the back passanger windows with duck tape. At night time I would lower the back windows a bit and the mosquito net would keep the bugs out while getting a nice breeze from outside. In the winter it would get cold and I would put the heat on for some time but Also would layer up with clothes and that would keep me warm.
Inspiring young lady! Thank you. Some of my fav people have July b-days too. Have to admit I liked the 10- 11 minutes, maybe that will let you do more of these. Also, highly recommend insight timer app for meditation if you're not already familiar with. Lastly, keep and open mind about the sugar daddy thing, living on a boat (here in VA) is fun too!
Hey, I feel you and I admire your courage. Until 2 weeks ago I was also planning to live in my car but I just couldn’t dare so I ended up renting a seriously cheap and crappy studio in the middle of the desert. Then I came across your video and said to myself ‘i should’ve done the same’. I sincerely hope you settle down soon in a place which will warm your heart.
Hi im Jeff, My wife and I live in Southern California and have had a good life so far. We both love helping out other people in need of pretty much anything. If you find yourself in need just reach out to us and your prayers will be answered. God Bless, and have a safe night. Jeff and Sheri
I lived in my car on/off for most of my early 20’s and late teens. It gets better. I don’t know how I found you. But I subscribed, and tell you it gets better.
Hey Ari, make sure you are getting monetized (if you're not already) for your videos, because your videos are making numbers in views in a small amount of time. I'm a subscriber and love your honesty in your videos. I look forward to your videos for now on. keep it up.
@@itiiyt I did, and all I saw that she did things when she was younger. We all are not perfect also people can change. Scammer or not, you do realize you're helping her YT channel by commenting - drama sells and maybe this is working on her behalf.
You’re An inspiration to a lot of people. I don’t know if this is an option for you, however; campgrounds might help with your parking problems. Legally you can stay (if I remember correctly) up to 30 days before you have to move for at least a week. I don’t remember exactly how much it costs but I do remember it wasn’t too expensive. My prayers are with you & please stay as safe as possible. God Bless you. 🙏
dont know about out in cali but in the east 14 day stay then cant stay until another 14 go by and 15-20 bucks a day if you can find a place that has an opening and its getting have to find -most want you to have at least a tent to stay in
Hello Ari. A blessing just ran across your channel. I have now gone through more than 90% of all your videos and am inspired. Thanks for the inspiration I'm sure you have instilled in others and me during the time I have viewed your content. The world has more than enough negativity, skepticism and doubt. I'm note struggling through homelessness nor ever have but I completelty understand what motivates your to go on this journey. Your value orientation is a lot heathier than those claiming to have much materially. I'm 53 years old, a profeesional (by the world's standards) but have made some changes in my personal life to move away from the "materialistic" values that define our culture. The connection must be with humanity and those whoe are suffering. I see you have not posted any content since last year and pray you are safe. Please continue your current journey all the while staying connected to GOD. Peace
Girl, you are very strong! Keep the faith and learn from this entire situation. You will be a much stronger individual and not everything is measured in dollars. Lot’s of people have tons of money but are miserable. Be strong one day at a time
I've been homeless twice in my life. Both times I managed to get out of it. I didn't mind it I stayed in shelters, but life is hard. Keep the positive attitude going. Looks like you have lots of support.
I understand where you're coming from. I too sleep in my car at night. I work at a steakhouse restaurant, so I get Perks there and the cooks give me free food if I ask them. I go to a food and Coalition place for showers and meals. Definitely save ao.e money there. On the weekends I'm off fishing at different areas. Tomorrow after work, I start my 10 days of vacation with my classmate and his family. The couty fair is in town there. Should be fun. I like your setup in your car. That's great that you read everyone's comments. Been living in my car for 2.5 months so far. I do laundry at the laundromat. I have a storage where I keep things that I don't have room in my 4 Dr sedan('04 VW). Thanks for sharing and as always, be safe...😃👍👌👊🙏🚙❤️❤️❤️
I have been homeless before and I lost my parents when I was 18 and 19 I'm 35 now and I'm still learning to grow and get my mental health issues together keep up the good work I'm praying for you
Cool! I just found your videos! We are the same age. I'm thinking about quitting my job and living in my car because that's how much I've grown to hate my job. I hate the thought of working just to pay for a place to sleep! The price for an apartment now should be a crime! I think I'm going to trade in my car for a van and convert it. I want to just travel and work temp jobs to get by for a while. Keep the videos coming!
Glad you came up on the algorithm. Sounds like you did what you had to do to get out of a toxic situation. I've done this 4 times in my life you will be ok. Much love.. one day you will look back on this video and realize It was the best decision you ever made. I learned so much during my homeless times and it thought me most importantly now to just appreciate the smallest things. Enjoy say safe.
Just came across your video. I really enjoyed it. Plus,I feel ya with trying to out your hair in a ponytail. My hair is very long & heavy especially summer frizzy hair. Can't wait to see your journey. Sending tons of Prayers & love.
Hi Ari you’re funny or just being real. Thank you for sharing necessary tips for people who have same situation as you have. Good job tidying up! Looks good! Stay cheerful.😊🙏🏼
I’ve got 6 months left on my lease in my apartment so I am prepping and planning now and trying to learn all I can so any and all tips are greatly appreciated.
My lease is over October 27th... I put in my move out notice... I ve been waking up in the middle of the night wondering if I'm doing the right thing. More than anything, I don't want to stay in Indiana anymore. I need to see some things. Thank you for the reassurance, sending love ❤️ ❤️
Glad I found your channel you're a really humble person 🙏 😊 I'm going through that situation rn and it's real life!!I'm only 24 stay in Seattle been doing that for 2month stay strong and be safe out there beautiful❤💛
I recommend also tinting your windows. For my car, which I use for driving (and parking) in a HOT area, I chose a slightly darker tint. 15? If that number means anything. Ceramic! I wouldn’t mind having curtains for additional sun protection. ☀️
You are SO beautiful & SO strong & I am sending you sooo much love & positive energy & I’ll keep you in my prayers ☀️🌈🌼 🙏🏼 You’re going places babygirl 🧡 So proud of you & your perseverance is beyond encouraging❣️&& i just wanted to say that I totally resonate with you on having no friends & abusive family. I’m fortunate enough to still have a place to live with them (for now) but it’s definitely not easy (mentally & emotionally) They’ve kicked me out previously when I was going through some tough physical health issues no doctor could figure out & I had no home no place to live & no car for several months. It was beyond hard but I saw who they really are & how much they really don’t care when shit hits the fan & it gave me the strength to keep fighting for myself because I realized only one that’s really got my back is God & myself 💛 I’m so proud of you for staying strong, living your best life & making the best out of a difficult situation. Your a total fucking rockstar 🧡 You popped up on my UA-cam home page several days ago & I’ve been watching you/supporting you ever since (( Yay UA-cam algorithm for the win🥇)) ~ i definitely feel your an old soul like me 💟 A supa soul sista from anotha mista ☮️ haha, imma dork lol 😆 Just remember: You areeee -> A rad, dope, strong, intelligent, courageous, brilliant and beautiful shining mf star! And I’m so proud of you for staying strong && for not seeking out a sugar daddy (((cause how would lowering your morals & values for money help at all, riggghht? I feel like that would actually make things so much worse for anyone mentally and emotionally and spiritually that’s going thru this - not medicine for the soul))) & also, for staying true to yourself. Reminds me of that 90’s song “true to your heart you must be true to your heart and then the heavens will part” .. okay enough music geeking lol. incase you haven’t been told this in a long time.. i love you & you are loved & Jesus loves you too 😘 You got this girl!! Kick life’s ass 💪🏻 P.S. I got me a 24/7 gym membership a month or two ago && Its literally l saving my life 🧡 Super important for me & everyone to stay positive mentally especially with all this inflation & crazy living costs. Also the ocean healing ❤️🩹 I love going to the ocean too 🌊 and being next to saltwater sucks all the negativity out of everyone and everything which is part of why I feel people love going to the ocean so much .. aside from how beautiful it is ☺️ + the ocean waves are everything. Grateful to live in the PNW & be able to have access to beaches but i gotta say .. Cali beaches are total vibes 😍 alllll that sand ☀️ legit heaven 🧡 Keep that positive attitude & kno that “every little thing is gonna be alright” ~ Bob Marley 🐦🐦 Peace & Love ✌🏼💟
I think this is the start of a REVOLUTION, a good one, where people start to see the freedom that we really do have. Very inspirational 🥹 Stay safe, okay.
Youre a beautiful/ gorgeous woman! Its hard to believe that you would have a hard time finding someone to build a friendship/relationship with. Especially hearing how strong minded and independent you are. I know you say you go to a gym. So do i... and its 1 place to meet someone with similiar interest. Possible build a team together and help each other.. cause its a struggle in this economy on 1 paycheck. It definetly helps when ur significant other can contribute to build a strong team... Keep striving girl... I can see so much good in your aura... you gonna get thru this and its all gonna be memories to tell one day 💪
Omg you're so sweet. Your voice reminds me of Britney Spears 🤗 It's shocking that you live in a car but with how unaffordable housing is, it makes sense and I can see how it could be the best decision. Watching a few of your videos I am very grateful for the good in my life & I'm happy for you that you seem to be doing ok and that you're connecting with some lovely people online, and inspiring others in the process 🧚♀️🌿
A car is ten times better then a tent or a slab of concert..i just recently came across your channel is can relate to what your going thru lived in my truck in the middle of winter with no heater waking up scrapping the inside of my windows to see out .Now things are alot better and things will get better for you cause I see your out going and not down in yourself but keep ur head and keep moving forward can't wait for next video
I just discovered your videos. It's a change from all the other videos I watch on vanlife since here it's something you didn't choose but you undergo... I wish you lots of courage because it can't be easy 💪 We feel through your videos that you're a sincere person. Don't change and stay as you are! I can't wait for you to open your Patreon page, it will allow me to help you in a small way. Anyway, thank you for what you share with us (and it helps me to improve my English. So sorry for my English which must be not so good...) And for your iPad, have you tried cleaning the iPad charging connector? It's often because of a lot of dust that gets into the port that the iPad doesn't charge anymore because there is no contact. You have to go slowly to remove the dust with a small object like a toothpick. Once done, blow a little inside to remove what's left and with a little luck, it will charge again 😉
Loving your videos! You’re so relatable at least to me you are, I’m far from rich I struggle daily but separation from social media and coming to terms with the simplicity of my reality has completely changed my outlook on life ! I eventually want to go on the road #vanlife or skoolie but I have 3 young kids no friends orbs family and honestly not in the best of situation that I need to escape from so if I ever get the nerve to finally do it I would love to visit cali as one of my first destinations! Of course the main struggle is income unfortunately but I keep faith your know how it is :(. remotely working would be the absolute blessing I need but for now I’m so inspired by your story and if u ever need anything just a friend to cry to id be glad to listen we can all learn a lot from one another in this life ! But I’ll be following your journey for sure ! Keep your head up babe you’re amazing and so tough !
you are really an interesting person and super resillient. I battle depression and I appreciate your realness and journey. Praying for you all the time.
Great storytelling through editing and I think the voice over was top shelf. (I know I know...I'm supposed to say prayers and feel sorry...but you have a great imagination and looks like you have the UA-cam gift. Very few people can compose such a good video off their telephones. Dreams are within your reach too!)
Your story is very inspiring and thanks so much for sharing with us the life you live. Stay strong and know that good things are coming your way. I look forward to the day when you post of a video of your own place.
You are doing great- smiling means everything, keep them coming! Im 49, and ready for #urbancarliving by choice- hence how I stumbled onto your content. Im proud of you, not knowing anything about you I can see you have the heart and soul of a champ!
Hi Ari, Your videos are great no need to keep them short I Really enjoy them. I wanted to share something with you I’m 61 and I’ve been thinking of living out of my suv for a while now I’m struggling between the rent my car Pymts the insurance the light and all the other bills I have can’t afford them anymore. Sometimes don’t have a dollar left. I’m struggling with the idea I’m not young and healthy as you , but it’s gotten to a point that I have to make a choice.
@@stansmith5610 not only that, once she's got enough followers and getting money through UA-cam and patreons how will she keep this "homeless" thing going when she's probably gonna make way more than 90% of us people who actually have a job lol
The thing I’d worry most about is having my vehicle break down…especially if you can’t save money for any possible future car repairs. Hopefully you have a credit card for emergencies such as that. You have a really great personality and I could see you having a lucrative UA-cam/tik Tok career.
I love van life and simple living. So fun and adventurous! You’re not homeless maybe houseless but not homeless 😜 save up for a sprinter van and it will be like a dream! Had to subscribe to follow your adventures, safe travels, come to the beach 🤙🏽
The more inland you go the easier it is to park at your gym, Walmart's shopping centers etc. I went from an RV to a semi truck. My favorite strategy is looking for close down businesses.
If possible I think you'd enjoy a van or truck that you could turn into a livable space. Loving being free and being an introvert is something alot of people dont understand. I hope everything works out for you and I can tell your a very bright person. Never stop pushing. Respect from Toronto Canada.👊🏾.
It’s 2:22am and I was about to sleep when I saw ur first video … I subscribed cause I love the fact u r being true to urself and others … specially in this world where society is mainly driven by appearances . Shout out from Peru 🇵🇪 and I wish the universe guides ur way 🙌🏼🤗
I went from being millionaire to losing everything& living in my truck for 2yrs.I learned the famous quote: "What doesn't kill you makes u stronger" is true..Learned I had tremendous faith& resourcefulness.I'm doing really well now& know u will be soon 😇
How did you lose everything. Can we learn from you?
@@jeffg3895 Over extended in biz when real estate crashed in 2010- Lost 2 apt buildings-Big home, too many bills, marital problems.In hindsight, should've had backup plans but I ignored signs, which are always there
@@davidkeith7087 I think the best thing that ever happened to me was losing everything. I always had a family that would bail me out of everything. They finally just got sick of it and cut me off. I promised myself I would never been in that situation again. I’m in recovery and I did it to myself. But losing money only made me stronger. I’ve since gotten sober and repaired those relationships. I’ve been able to keep a roof over my head and pay for all of my bills by myself. I know that sounds so stupid because I should’ve done that years ago. I am grateful that it happened. I wish you the very best!
Amen
@@iampatricemeeks9512 Thank you!
I live Vanlife here in Hawai’i currently, in total the last 6 or 7 years. California was by far the hardest place as a nomad/on the road, regardless of which type of vehicle. The state laws make it really difficult, finding a place to park overnight is tough. If I did have to recommend a spot, a little north of Malibu in the mountains is where I typically park when I’m traveling thru, but down south in San Diego there’s a huge community of vanlifers if you ever feel lonely or wanna make some friends. Stoked to come across your channel. Keep creating and sharing your journey 🖤
Wow that would be spectacular in Hawaii
Cheers friend 💞😊
San Diego is the best all countries
@@nomadicheadspace5334 It’s cool in SD, but there’s definitely better cities for Vanlife outside of California. Baja down south in Mex, Bend in Oregon, Olympic in Washington & Crested Butte in Colorado & most of Idaho to name a few. SD is a good time tho
@@kylejayy Thanks man. I heard San Diego was pretty bad. I'm having great luck in Long Beach right now on. I'm not sure how long it will last but this is the only place in LA County thats been so cool.
I heard PCH around the malibu area was good but Im not sure if its changed recently. They are all scrambling to make new laws to get us out lol
Northern Arizona, Flagstaff is a good spot too.
Isn’t vanlife tough in Hawaii? Don’t they kick you out everywhere?
You are on the RIGHT PATH regardless of how harsh it might be at the moment. Just stumbled upon your video from 2 weeks ago today and heard your comment about NOT going the “Sugar Daddy” route. That shows a lot of good personal INTEGRITY and good moral values. I can see good things in your future. We all have a story and we all make mistakes. Stay positive and keep trudging forward. It will get better and happy belated birthday. Cheers. One more tip. If you would like to maximize room you can take your car to a dealership close by and they can definitely help you remove your backseats in a few minutes for free to give you full access to your trunk and more “sleep room”. I’ve been traveling up and down the west coast. Sold everything being semi retired and taking a few years vacation. I’ll checkout your other tips on traveling. Thanks for the great interesting videos.
SHE IS A SCAMMER THAT ABUSED HER CHILD!
Man your videos hit home, I was in a horrible relationship and just had a baby at the time and walked miles ...... Ugh I hate those memories but I acknowledge that's how I made my wonderful life what it is today. Blessings to you. Great things are coming your way❤️
Right everyone is saying don’t shorten your videos , please don’t. Just say n do what you want, there’s no rules. People love you for you so don’t worry and keep putting out the honest day in the life videos etc. I think they help folks who are in the same situation and you might notice a lot of women who WANT to go take the leap to do car/ van life! I am hoping to someday, I see it as a positive ❤️🌸
Agreed 💯
Amen.amen.amen.
You should create an Amazon store and then put links to the stuff you have bought for your car life. You will make a little money on anything anyone buys thru your links. They have to buy within 24 hours though, once they put it in their cart. Doesn't cost them any more than direct thru Amazon. Win, Win, the links help those new to car life and you with a little extra income.
Great idea 💡👌
How do you create a Amazon store ?? I would love to do that myself ! ❤️
@@jenncarr5376 I'm not sure, I've just seen other UA-camrs talk about it on their channels. One channel specifically is Minivan Lee. Maybe she could help if you reach out to her on her channel. Good luck!

I am sure you will succeed Ari. You have such a kind heart. We all pass through adversity but it is how we choose to look at life that makes the biggest difference. Don’t ever stop shinning your amazing light. Keep going girl, loads of love ❤️
I know there are some van lifers and also people that live in small older rvs that have some apps that tell them place they can camp at that are safe idk the site or maybe you have been told about it already. I just found your page and I’m cheering you on. I have always had a little depression but the last year I really started to struggle with depression and anxiety so I can relate to you. It looks like you are getting lots of attention on YT congratulations 🎉 I’m sure you know already but I just want to say be careful as you get more popular on who to trust. Heck yeah you can find anything on Amazon lol.I’m excited to see your journey. As you get more subscribers the trolls and “perfect “ people come out too to bash and tell you everything you’re doing wrong or whatever anyways stay strong 💪 don’t let those people get you down don’t worry about having to explain yourself to them all because most of the critics aren’t here because they like you they are her because that’s what they get off doing so smoke a j and relax 🙃🙂
Your video just popped up. I don’t know where to start, but your story has really touched my heart.
Stay strong and don’t worry about what anyone thinks or says. The main thing is you have Jesus in your heart. Without him we have nothing. Just remember your not alone. Stay safe!!!
Your videos are no way too long, in fact just about perfect. I follow a number of channels with van lifers etc. and they always talk about Walmart being a place to park, I work at Home Depot and you will not be bothered if you overnight park, just park on the outskirts, at my store we usually have a couple of 18 wheelers and anywhere up to 6 campers of various types.
Cheering you on girl! Found your videos today and I’m hooked on your energy and attitude. Sending you all the light, love and little bit I can do to help my fellow human. Thank you for being such an inspiration to us all. One love ✌🏽
What I've learned is nothing last forever. I was homeless for 3 years when I moved from north Carolina to Kentucky and I've been living in an apartment for 8 years and hope to improve more in my life. Everyone got a season hardship but everyone gets to bear their fruit 🍓 from that season
are you still a poor?

Just subscribed. Sucks that you’re living in your car, but looks like you’re making the best of it. UA-cam is a huge community, so I’m sure you’re gonna get a lot of support. And you’re also going to inspire others who are struggling and finding themselves homeless, especially during these hard times. Life has gotten to expensive after the pandemic that those who were struggling before the pandemic have found themselves in even worse situations now.
I’m sorry that you have no family or friends to lean on. I hope that through this community you can find trustworthy people whom you can eventually call your friend and family.
Keep on smiling and spreading love to the world!! You will reap what you sow, so keep being positive and spreading it for others to catch.
Beautiful comment💕
Hi beautiful!! Let me just tell you how incredibly inspired and in awe I am of you... your positivity, your resourcefulness, your heart, your energy, you radiate so much love, grace and beauty. You have inspired me in so many ways. Thank you for shining your light and making this world a better place! I pray for Gods richest blessings and providence over your life 💗 you really are an incredible soul!
Girl you have such a wonderful energy about you! So resilient and fun loving! Love the part where you were rockin out. Get ittt
I live in Portland. We have a BIG house less community here. There are lots of places where people park in their van or car, and most businesses are cool with it. We also have a lot of resources and laws to protect the homeless here.
I love your vibe and energy. Truly inspiring me to simplify my life and refocus on what’s important to me… my faith and nature 💗💗💗 keep rockin girl
After my divorce I lived in my car for almost a year. It was a struggle. Then I embraced the van life upgraded to a used Mercedes sprinter so I can stand up. I work seasonal jobs and travel when and where I want to. Upgraded my vehicle was the best decision I made. Have you ever thought of getting a taller vehicle so you can stand?
That's badass dude
That's inspirational ✌️😁
Same n need bigger vehicle I'm in a PT Cruiser
@@katalynbabe I used to have one of those that is small
I can really relate to alot of the stories here. Except I feel like mine maybe worse. I was a former business owner, married and doing well and happy until I got very ill. I had a horribly painful condition. Had to walk away from my business and husband passed 2 yrs later leaving nothing. Living on disability was hard enough but as yrs went by rents grew beyond my income. I was always a month away from homelessness til it finally happened...was supposed to go live w ex-alcoholic sister who bugged out last minute. Met a guy online looking for a roommate bc he was getting older and he bugged out last minute after inviting me to move in and I had driven 5 states, nice. Car living w a small dog and cat. My cat got lost after staying overnight w a psycho friend...I'm still 💔. So, being older, alone, bad back....finally found small apt 6 states away, I know no one here, back to having a slumlord that doesn't fix things...almost ready to go back on the road...I really want my own house but prices are crazy.
I am so proud of you! And excited to see you journey. I'm sending you lots of love and prayers. I hope you feel how many people out here love you and want to see your success. Looking forward to your next video!!
Interesting how by the way you speak, look, carry yourself etc- I would never guess you're in this situation. Goes to show you never know what people are going through.
I've dealt with depression most of my life (I'm 30) and it's become worse over the last couple years. No one has caught on and I've only told a few people over the years. All of which were surprised and had no idea. Point is- you never truly know. I know times are hard for you but not only do you have a great personality but apparently making videos is your thing. I can already tell you're going to do really well on this platform so early congrats 👏
Wish u the best with ur mental health journey Brother..I feel ya about the getting worse as u get older I experience a similar situation..
Nobody can believe she is in this situation.
When you are so pretty life is so easy.
I cant understand how a model like her can be homeless more than a day.
Thank you for just being vulnerable and authentic! You’re so brave for what you do, I pray to God that he protects you out there, and opens new doors for you soon! My wife, and I, would love to be your friends, sending you my blessings 🙏🏼
First of all Happy belated Birthday. Just recently came across your videos.You are such an amazing person and have a great outlook on life, even in the situation you are in. That says a lot about the type of person you are. I have been binge watching your videos. The part of this video about the Sugar Daddy really had me laughing. You definitely don't NEED one of those. I have a feeling you are going to be a very successful person.
I really hope you get more subs and get your videos monetized soon, that would really help you out tremendously. I will continue to pray for you and watch your journey. God bless you
Idk how I got here. But it’s fascinating to hear how people live in their car and despite their situation keep moving forward 💕
Get it girl! Tough times don’t last tough people do!!! 💪🏼
As a Law Enforcement Officer in CA, close to where you are (Different County). I understand security has a job to do but if you’re tidy and keep everything clean I’m cool with it. Not going to kick anyone out especially in the middle of the night. Stay safe out there and keep on truckin! A travel van would be sweet for sure. Btw I’ve been enjoying the videos 🤘🏽
You seem so kind. I'm living in my car in nor cal and I live in fear everyday of getting in trouble for being somewhere I'm not supposed to be...or just really for any reason... I haven't one year old German shepherd with me... The love of my life, I'm always terrified something will happen and I'll end up losing him...
I actually had quite a few positive experiences with police officers and sheriffs deputies when I was living iny car in 2017/18. I was discreet and tidy and most of the times that I was asked to move, I was given a few tips on places that might be better for at least the rest of the night. Thanks to you, too RW.
Well said good to hear your perspective..
Oh nice! What county are you in, I’m LA county! Thanks for your service. It’s tough being an officer
@Makki LOL youre really crazy, big hater. She explained her lovable grandpa past away.....REMEMBER! There are 2 grandpas and 2 grandmas LMAO Makki the crazy hater
Ari, I talked to my niece. I asked her if you could park on her block safely (she lives in LA), and she said no. She said for you to look at car camping in Silverlake, Echo Park, Malibu & El Segundo.
She said to PLEASE stay away from Venice Beach, Santa Monica and inner city LA, as they are seriously cracking down.
Also, she is going to find out about an app that, get this: it shows all the places you can car camp where you won’t be bothered. She said she & her ex used it all the time when they were traveling around by car.
Did she ever tell you the name of that app?
@@TxAggieJen iOverlander is the one I've found most useful.
Wow ur sister is awful. If a gal was alone living in her car $hit I would let them park in my drive way. Tell ur sister way to have a sisterhoods back.
@@TxAggieJen I'll post it here shortly. She's been busy.
She said “no” lmaooooooo why would you type that
I'm proud of you and the attitude you have. I know you will have days when you get down, but I know you can stay strong! We are living in crazy times. It is so sad that each and every working American cannot afford what they need, the basics of life. Thanks for the videos and stay safe!
Ari. I feel ya girl. I’m am throwing the most best wishes your way … I am finally moving out of so cal. I understand all you are going through.
The hard times, build strength and character….humility and graciousness., and most of all…. You learn to not judge people, Kindness and understanding to all. YOU are

person that will bless anyone who gets to know you. Thank you, You inspire me.
Just found your channel recently, I cannot imagine what you are going through right now, and with no support system available some more. For that, I think you are very strong and admire your strength. Hope your channel will grow huge and all the best!
Hi Ari don't shorten your videos they're fine. Glad to see you smiling and having some fun 😊
I connect with you more than I do with other people that are living in their cars or vans because you need to do this to pay your bills and save a little cash during this recession I've been there and know how hard it is and you are doing a great job.
Agreed 💯 friend
dont be picky choosy
@@clickclackbang18 I don't think anyone that is living in their vehicles is being picky choosey. How about you pray practicing a little compassion and not being judgemental.
The world is truly a wonderful place, you're homeless but seeing all the outpouring support from strangers ,the words of encouragement is a sight to behold. I'm praying that your situation gets better keep producing content as the updates are interesting and keeps us engaged . Best of luck 🤞
You’re right bro she’s doing well man. I’m not buying the whole pity potty
What about the other 100,000 homeless who aren’t pretty
Focus on their strengths.
I'll get down voted to oblivion and called a sexist pig. Now that that's out of the way, why do a lot of women these days enjoy being SO independent? To the point it sometimes leads them to live like this. Why can't they settle down, find a decent husband, live life in a humble way?
There are plenty of good guys out there. Don't have to be so alone.

Hi Ari, I came across you by accident really & your story really touched me.
I live on the east coast of Scotland & send huge hugs & love.
I think it’s an absolute disgrace that in 2022 your situation is what it is but the way you seem to be coping is testament to your character. You’re one brave, tough woman. Not everyone is as resilient. It’s such a positive quality. I’m going to stick with you on your journey & have now subscribed.

I glad to see that your staying in good spirits an your making your $ thru UA-cam. Keep pushing forward with the positive vibe.
My car has dark tinted windows, but what I did when I was living in my car I bought black fabric and made curtains and added that to the inside of my car. From the outside people could not look in because it was so dark because of the black tint and the black fabric behind it. Sometimes it was very hot in the summer time . I would run the AC on for a while but because the AC would suck up the gas I could not run it all night. Therefore I bought mosquito net at the hardware store and put the mosquito net on the back passanger windows with duck tape. At night time I would lower the back windows a bit and the mosquito net would keep the bugs out while getting a nice breeze from outside. In the winter it would get cold and I would put the heat on for some time but Also would layer up with clothes and that would keep me warm.
You’re such a brave person, not a lot of people can do what you’re doing. Stay safe out there & keep your head up!!
Inspiring young lady! Thank you. Some of my fav people have July b-days too. Have to admit I liked the 10- 11 minutes, maybe that will let you do more of these. Also, highly recommend insight timer app for meditation if you're not already familiar with. Lastly, keep and open mind about the sugar daddy thing, living on a boat (here in VA) is fun too!
Hey, I feel you and I admire your courage. Until 2 weeks ago I was also planning to live in my car but I just couldn’t dare so I ended up renting a seriously cheap and crappy studio in the middle of the desert. Then I came across your video and said to myself ‘i should’ve done the same’. I sincerely hope you settle down soon in a place which will warm your heart.
Thank you for sharing Ari! You inspire me with your positive attitude! Thanks again.

Love your haul. I always go with your sizing recommendations because we are similar shape. You never fail!💜
Hey Ari, make sure you are getting monetized (if you're not already) for your videos, because your videos are making numbers in views in a small amount of time. I'm a subscriber and love your honesty in your videos. I look forward to your videos for now on. keep it up.
@@itiiyt I did, and all I saw that she did things when she was younger. We all are not perfect also people can change. Scammer or not, you do realize you're helping her YT channel by commenting - drama sells and maybe this is working on her behalf.
You’re An inspiration to a lot of people. I don’t know if this is an option for you, however; campgrounds might help with your parking problems. Legally you can stay (if I remember correctly) up to 30 days before you have to move for at least a week. I don’t remember exactly how much it costs but I do remember it wasn’t too expensive. My prayers are with you & please stay as safe as possible. God Bless you. 🙏
dont know about out in cali but in the east 14 day stay then cant stay until another 14 go by and 15-20 bucks a day if you can find a place that has an opening and its getting have to find -most want you to have at least a tent to stay in
Hello Ari. A blessing just ran across your channel. I have now gone through more than 90% of all your videos and am inspired. Thanks for the inspiration I'm sure you have instilled in others and me during the time I have viewed your content. The world has more than enough negativity, skepticism and doubt. I'm note struggling through homelessness nor ever have but I completelty understand what motivates your to go on this journey. Your value orientation is a lot heathier than those claiming to have much materially. I'm 53 years old, a profeesional (by the world's standards) but have made some changes in my personal life to move away from the "materialistic" values that define our culture. The connection must be with humanity and those whoe are suffering. I see you have not posted any content since last year and pray you are safe. Please continue your current journey all the while staying connected to GOD. Peace
Girl, you are very strong! Keep the faith and learn from this entire situation. You will be a much stronger individual and not everything is measured in dollars. Lot’s of people have tons of money but are miserable. Be strong one day at a time
I've been homeless twice in my life. Both times I managed to get out of it. I didn't mind it I stayed in shelters, but life is hard. Keep the positive attitude going. Looks like you have lots of support.
I understand where you're coming from. I too sleep in my car at night. I work at a steakhouse restaurant, so I get Perks there and the cooks give me free food if I ask them. I go to a food and Coalition place for showers and meals. Definitely save ao.e money there. On the weekends I'm off fishing at different areas. Tomorrow after work, I start my 10 days of vacation with my classmate and his family. The couty fair is in town there. Should be fun. I like your setup in your car. That's great that you read everyone's comments. Been living in my car for 2.5 months so far. I do laundry at the laundromat. I have a storage where I keep things that I don't have room in my 4 Dr sedan('04 VW). Thanks for sharing and as always, be safe...😃👍👌👊🙏🚙❤️❤️❤️

@@itiiyt I have been seeing the videos on UA-cam
Cool! I just found your videos! We are the same age. I'm thinking about quitting my job and living in my car because that's how much I've grown to hate my job. I hate the thought of working just to pay for a place to sleep! The price for an apartment now should be a crime! I think I'm going to trade in my car for a van and convert it. I want to just travel and work temp jobs to get by for a while. Keep the videos coming!
Glad you came up on the algorithm. Sounds like you did what you had to do to get out of a toxic situation. I've done this 4 times in my life you will be ok. Much love.. one day you will look back on this video and realize It was the best decision you ever made. I learned so much during my homeless times and it thought me most importantly now to just appreciate the smallest things. Enjoy say safe.
You're such an inspiration, people who are going through a really hard time should watch your videos.
I wish you nothing but the best in your journey.
I love your energy and attitude! Keep up the content and you're awesome Ari
Love that I found your videos. I too struggle with depression. It definitely gets hard.

I recommend also tinting your windows. For my car, which I use for driving (and parking) in a HOT area, I chose a slightly darker tint. 15? If that number means anything. Ceramic!
I wouldn’t mind having curtains for additional sun protection. ☀️

You’re going places babygirl 🧡 So proud of you & your perseverance is beyond encouraging❣️&& i just wanted to say that I totally resonate with you on having no friends & abusive family. I’m fortunate enough to still have a place to live with them (for now) but it’s definitely not easy (mentally & emotionally) They’ve kicked me out previously when I was going through some tough physical health issues no doctor could figure out & I had no home no place to live & no car for several months. It was beyond hard but I saw who they really are & how much they really don’t care when shit hits the fan & it gave me the strength to keep fighting for myself because I realized only one that’s really got my back is God & myself 💛
I’m so proud of you for staying strong, living your best life & making the best out of a difficult situation. Your a total fucking rockstar 🧡

Just remember: You areeee -> A rad, dope, strong, intelligent, courageous, brilliant and beautiful shining mf star! And I’m so proud of you for staying strong && for not seeking out a sugar daddy (((cause how would lowering your morals & values for money help at all, riggghht? I feel like that would actually make things so much worse for anyone mentally and emotionally and spiritually that’s going thru this - not medicine for the soul))) & also, for staying true to yourself.
Reminds me of that 90’s song “true to your heart you must be true to your heart and then the heavens will part” .. okay enough music geeking lol. incase you haven’t been told this in a long time.. i love you & you are loved & Jesus loves you too 😘 You got this girl!! Kick life’s ass 💪🏻
P.S. I got me a 24/7 gym membership a month or two ago && Its literally l saving my life 🧡 Super important for me & everyone to stay positive mentally especially with all this inflation & crazy living costs. Also the ocean healing ❤️🩹 I love going to the ocean too 🌊 and being next to saltwater sucks all the negativity out of everyone and everything which is part of why I feel people love going to the ocean so much .. aside from how beautiful it is ☺️ + the ocean waves are everything. Grateful to live in the PNW & be able to have access to beaches but i gotta say ..

Youre a beautiful/ gorgeous woman! Its hard to believe that you would have a hard time finding someone to build a friendship/relationship with. Especially hearing how strong minded and independent you are. I know you say you go to a gym. So do i... and its 1 place to meet someone with similiar interest. Possible build a team together and help each other.. cause its a struggle in this economy on 1 paycheck. It definetly helps when ur significant other can contribute to build a strong team... Keep striving girl... I can see so much good in your aura... you gonna get thru this and its all gonna be memories to tell one day 💪
Omg you're so sweet. Your voice reminds me of Britney Spears 🤗 It's shocking that you live in a car but with how unaffordable housing is, it makes sense and I can see how it could be the best decision. Watching a few of your videos I am very grateful for the good in my life & I'm happy for you that you seem to be doing ok and that you're connecting with some lovely people online, and inspiring others in the process 🧚♀️🌿
A car is ten times better then a tent or a slab of concert..i just recently came across your channel is can relate to what your going thru lived in my truck in the middle of winter with no heater waking up scrapping the inside of my windows to see out

I just discovered your videos. It's a change from all the other videos I watch on vanlife since here it's something you didn't choose but you undergo... I wish you lots of courage because it can't be easy 💪 We feel through your videos that you're a sincere person. Don't change and stay as you are! I can't wait for you to open your Patreon page, it will allow me to help you in a small way. Anyway, thank you for what you share with us (and it helps me to improve my English. So sorry for my English which must be not so good...)
And for your iPad, have you tried cleaning the iPad charging connector? It's often because of a lot of dust that gets into the port that the iPad doesn't charge anymore because there is no contact. You have to go slowly to remove the dust with a small object like a toothpick. Once done, blow a little inside to remove what's left and with a little luck, it will charge again 😉
I love it your videos are very interesting and entertaining. Love your energy and positivity. The longer the videos the better haha! Take care
God bless you Ari! New to your channel and just subscribed. UK here.
Aww Same bday !! 🙏 sending love and light your way!!
Loving your videos! You’re so relatable at least to me you are, I’m far from rich I struggle daily but separation from social media and coming to terms with the simplicity of my reality has completely changed my outlook on life ! I eventually want to go on the road #vanlife or skoolie but I have 3 young kids no friends orbs family and honestly not in the best of situation that I need to escape from so if I ever get the nerve to finally do it I would love to visit cali as one of my first destinations! Of course the main struggle is income unfortunately but I keep faith your know how it is :(. remotely working would be the absolute blessing I need but for now I’m so inspired by your story and if u ever need anything just a friend to cry to id be glad to listen we can all learn a lot from one another in this life ! But I’ll be following your journey for sure ! Keep your head up babe you’re amazing and so tough !
Rachel, you too are pretty amazing yourself! So sweet, kind and encouraging to a total stranger, I'll be praying 🙏🏻 for you as well 😊♡
@@QueenHive4 thank you 😊
Keep it up, stay strong, you're inspiring!
you are really an interesting person and super resillient. I battle depression and I appreciate your realness and journey. Praying for you all the time.
You have such great energy and an awesome spirit. Stay safe and sending great vibeS!♡
Great storytelling through editing and I think the voice over was top shelf. (I know I know...I'm supposed to say prayers and feel sorry...but you have a great imagination and looks like you have the UA-cam gift. Very few people can compose such a good video off their telephones. Dreams are within your reach too!)
I love your videos . You have very positive vibes which I appreciate and you shouldn’t shorten your videos 💕
Love ya! Stay tough and you will get through this. Trust me. Chris.
Ari your safety is number one. I want to do this. I'm making plans to do it. But I'm going to try my driveway first to see if I feel comfortable.
Your story is very inspiring and thanks so much for sharing with us the life you live. Stay strong and know that good things are coming your way. I look forward to the day when you post of a video of your own place.
You are awesome and an inspiration. Stay strong and keep the faith!
You are doing great- smiling means everything, keep them coming! Im 49, and ready for #urbancarliving by choice- hence how I stumbled onto your content. Im proud of you, not knowing anything about you I can see you have the heart and soul of a champ!
You deserve anything and everything ! Youre amazing keep pushing on!
Stay safe!
Hi Ari, Your videos are great no need to keep them short I Really enjoy them. I wanted to share something with you I’m 61 and I’ve been thinking of living out of my suv for a while now I’m struggling between the rent my car Pymts the insurance the light and all the other bills I have can’t afford them anymore. Sometimes don’t have a dollar left. I’m struggling with the idea I’m not young and healthy as you , but it’s gotten to a point that I have to make a choice.
having coffee , watching the video, Thank you for the afternoon entertainment ! have a good evening , hope it cools off round here soon !
You’re a good hearted woman and god is watching over you. I live in southern Cali if you need help reach out. Take care.
Those curtains are great! Ordered! And happy birthday.
Wow... this is incredibly brave to document your struggles. Especially in a world of social media highlights.
That part 🔐
This is social media. Your falling for it. Hippie life
*How do we know she's not faking it and doing this for views?* 🤔 *Can't trust everything you see on here*
@@stansmith5610 that's true too that's what I believe everything on here so fake and made up
@@stansmith5610 not only that, once she's got enough followers and getting money through UA-cam and patreons how will she keep this "homeless" thing going when she's probably gonna make way more than 90% of us people who actually have a job lol
The thing I’d worry most about is having my vehicle break down…especially if you can’t save money for any possible future car repairs. Hopefully you have a credit card for emergencies such as that.
You have a really great personality and I could see you having a lucrative UA-cam/tik Tok career.
What a beautiful soul you have!! Love you and love your vibe💕
I love van life and simple living. So fun and adventurous! You’re not homeless maybe houseless but not homeless 😜 save up for a sprinter van and it will be like a dream! Had to subscribe to follow your adventures, safe travels, come to the beach 🤙🏽
The more inland you go the easier it is to park at your gym, Walmart's shopping centers etc. I went from an RV to a semi truck. My favorite strategy is looking for close down businesses.
The world is literally lacking souls like you 💜
If possible I think you'd enjoy a van or truck that you could turn into a livable space. Loving being free and being an introvert is something alot of people dont understand. I hope everything works out for you and I can tell your a very bright person. Never stop pushing. Respect from Toronto Canada.👊🏾.
It’s 2:22am and I was about to sleep when I saw ur first video … I subscribed cause I love the fact u r being true to urself and others … specially in this world where society is mainly driven by appearances . Shout out from Peru 🇵🇪 and I wish the universe guides ur way 🙌🏼🤗
