The best travel gifts ever.That cup cozy pillow? Sleeping on the inside of a teardrop trailer? Oh yeah. All are functional, fun and affordable. The best gift? You. Thanks so much! 💜
Robin, every video you put out is so interesting. They are also very informative. I appreciate all the interesting things I learn from you so thanks and keep em coming. 🤗
A great present I used for my folks and rv friends were grocery gift cards. A quick search of the internet can tell you what chains are in their area(s) or ask them what they prefer. Everybody needs food but it sure is nice not having to pay for it
Hi Robin: I had a recent experience and it brought to mind this video that I previously watched. I was camping solo in my RV at a state park last week and there were no other campers in my area. As I was walking outside to adjust my solar panel on the ground, I suddenly tripped over an unseen stump that was directly in the middle of my campsite. I hit the ground hard on my right side and the severe pain to my ribs kept me on the ground until I could finally roll over to my good side and sit up. My cellphone was in the RV and it was then that I realized I couldn’t even make it in to call for help. The pain finally subsided enough (I broke the ninth rib on that side) that I eventually made it inside to apply ice and call for help. Two very valuable lessons learned that I would like to share: 1. Scope out your campsite and place a bucket or marker wherever a hazard may be. 2. Keep your cellphone on your body at all times I am researching the ResQLink right now! Patty
Another great and helpful video, thank you Robin! I just checked on the Canon HD camcorder (black, base version) is only $169! Maybe it's a Black Friday special (11/22/18)
Used your links for Harvest House membership and three other items. Sadly the lighter is no longer available. Thank you so much Robin! You should host a national RV Channel!
I too was looking at the lighter. I did find this one (www.amazon.com/dp/B0743MNHHY/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=recyclingcom-20&linkId=fc472e1da29868139e43d22f93bf25c2) that looks very much the same. not sure if it works/charges the same, though.
Hey, Robin. Just an FYI, that neck light that you like so much comes in a rechargeable version (from Amazon). I have the battery operated light that I use on our travels primarily for walking the dogs. Keeps your hands free and gives great forward lighting. Mine also has a red light setting which is great when you don’t want to ruin your night vision! I bought a second light for use at home. I like to read at night and and oftentimes don’t want to disturb the rest of the household so this makes a great personal light. The charges seems to last a fairly long time. Your Bomb Cyclone was very good. Leaving in NM and traveling often in CO we have had some pretty hefty winds in our 5th wheel. I can really freak you out! Those cyclone winds must have been something else! Safe travels.
Just jacked up my Christmas budget something serious. Note, batteries can't generate heat. They can run A fan but not a heater. I have an entire solar system with gigantic battery bank plug a heater in its quickest way to drain it.
I love your hacks and ideas. I've bought almost your entire arsenal you talked about. Definitely getting some of these and I'm sharing this video with friends and family!!
First, Robin... I just adore you and your channel. Wanted to give a shoutout to the USB rechargeable lighter. I was so tired of BIC lighters that used to last forever and now seem to last three times that my husband bought a rechargeable lighter too. Went to your link and it’s unavailable but ours is from Boulder Tools and is available for $19.99 from Amazon. We love it. I burn 25 oz soy or beeswax candles from Soyfire Candles in North Conway NH. The candles are non-toxic and come in many sizes and scents. Great local (to me) small company. Free shipping in contiguous USA with orders over $72 which amounts to about 3-25 oz candles. And if they arrive chipped they’ll resend no questions asked & you don’t have to return the chipped ones. They always sell one a month that is the scent of the month for 20% off. I love the Candle Crest brand scents of Winter Evergreen (November’s Scent of the Month), Honeysuckle-Jasmine (even men enjoy), and Lilac. I shy away from the Apple scented ones bc they seem to smell fermented (actually I don’t know that for sure but that’s my experience with toxic Yankee brand candles). Love your list. Thanks for all the great ideas!! Happy Thanksgiving and a truly Merry Christmas!! 💜
OMG this is a great list for anyone--not just those who are in an RV. When I am on the road alone, quite a few of these would be great to have...I would give this video 12 STARS!!!!
Forget about Oprah's favorite things, we have YOU! Thank you for this wonderful list of favorite items. I'm a 52 (almost 53) year old grandma and just purchased the mini bus from our church. I am totally stoked to turn it into a camper-bus and have some excursions. I had hoped for a high top van, but this will do for now and I think it will be nice to start out with the extra room for guests. Robin, I couldn't help but notice your North Dakota stamp is not filled in on your map. I live in Minot, ND and you are welcome to park in our driveway and camp (or even to join us in our home). We have a vineyard just west of town and perhaps they are on the Harvest Host site? There are 3 things I definitely would not miss when you come to ND. #1 spend some time in Medora: Attend the Medora Musical, splurge on the Pitchfork Steak Fondue dinner and enjoy the west side of the state. #2 visit the International Peace Gardens . #3 get an ice cream treat from Oscar's Ice Cream truck in Minot. Oscar is my son and we will hook you up with an Oscar's Ice Cream Tshirt and free ice cream!
I bought the hot water bottle for my wife the last time you reviewed it. It works really well! Thanks for bringing products like this to our attention! :)
Robin, I bought the rechargeable hot water bottle for my sister and for myself. I’ve used mine almost every night for my sciatica. It’s wonderful! Gave my sister’s to her today for her birthday. She just texted me to thank me again. She’s had it on her neck this evening. She’s said to thank you as well! Happy Holidays!
What I got for people for Christmas is the little battery charger. I got one a couple of years ago. They are a little bigger than my cell phone and I got it because my car battery wouldn't hold a charge. You can charge anything from your cell phone to your vehicle. You can carry it in your purse.

Thanks Robin for these great ideas. I am currently living in my camper whilst doing agency work in the U.K. I don’t have a microwave for heat packs and was using hot water bottle at night which I don’t feel safe about so my boyfriend bought me the rechargeable 'hot water bottle' and it’s been great. Pretty cold here at the moment I can tell you! He also got me the neck light and that has also been great for taking the dog out at night, two hands available, one for the lead and one for poop scooping! 🐶 Wish I could do a similar blog from the U.K. but not full timing so not sure there would be much interest, although I may end up doing more agency work as I like the freedom of it! Best wishes from the Isle of Wight!
Great video! I think I'd love most of those things once I get going...and yeah you don't even have to be a nomad for most of those things to be very useful
Your presentation style is addicting. I'm a recent widow and as a result I keep thinking about all the options I might have for life. Unfortunately I don't think I can be an HR Manager driving around the country but it would be pretty fun to have some freedom.
I use battery (flamess) candles. There are a few different kinds but the ones I like use AA or AAA batteries. You can use rechargeable batteries too. The ones I use have 3 settings, on, off or timer. You Cann get them with remotes but I don't like those. The ones I like, I turn them on setting them on timer. From that moment they will come on at the same time every night and turn off by themselves. You can choose different candles that will stay on for 6 or 8 hours. I love these, I have the all over the place. You can even get water/weather proof. In Michigan mine last about about 14-16 months, even in the snow depending how good your batteries are.
We have a Luminara brand candle that we used for lighting during a 10 day power outage in August. I wish we had more. Throws out an impressive amount of light.
🤣😂🤣 my daughter was listening to me watching this.. she heard you say you ran over your battery with your car... and she exclaimed “Geez she sounds like you!” 🤪
very cool gifts - I'm only living in my RV on my farm while building my house but they all look nice to have anyway even with power (formerly generator). Merry Christmas!
Hi Robin. I absolutely love your channel and look forward to each new video. I’m researching and planning for a life on the road. Have I missed the video about your “arsenal of self-defense tools” you have at the ready? I refuse to live in fear, but believe in being prepared. You are a wealth of really good information and fun to watch as well. I hope to have the pleasure of meeting you on the road someday.
Wow! We love your videos, but this one is one of the top videos for me and my husband! One day we are going to do what you’re doing!!! Thank you and God bless you!!!
Oh yes, I'm also loving the Turkish towels! They are so thin, so big and so useful! I love the fact that in my camper they won't take us much space and yet will be so useful!
Thank you for sharing. The rechargeable hot water bottle is going to family this year. I have two family member who are always cold. This will be a awesome gift for them. Thank you love your videos. ❤️
You are fast becoming my favorite UA-camr! I want to be you...lol. No, I just want to have a life and be happy and free like you! I’m preparing early. My youngest child is 15 and wants to go away to college in 3 years. My 17 yr old is leaving for the Air Force in July. So I’m starting to sock away money and selling the things I don’t need now. Hopefully this summer I can afford a small travel trailer for my youngest and I to start a summer journey. Thank you for all of your videos!
The rechargeable electric hot water bottle is so great, it only takes minutes to charge it and it last a long time (hours) I charge it in the morning and have it on my lap on the way to work, it keeps me nice and warm (I live in Colorado) I take it into work because I get chilly at my desk and my co workers ask me about it so I gave them your link for it, I hope that's okay. Today I ordered the rechargeable neck light because I leave so early in the morning that it's still dark outside and I like to read at night, I'll let you know about it when it gets here, thank you for your videos, I'm going to be on the road soon and you've given me a lot of information, I've been taking notes from your videos, thank you and please keep them coming and be safe
Thank you for these extremely helpful videos!! You mentioned you were gonna do a video on what all you have to defend yourself but if you tell everyone that scares me that it will put you at risk! If they know what you have they'll be ready for it! .
A great video, Robin! I ordered the "hot water bottle" for myself and my sister. I have knee issues and have a long commute until my retirement (1/1/21 - or sooner), when i hope to get that Leisure Travel Van. I am hoping that will help ease my pain. I also could not resist the opportunity to explore Harvest Host, so I did sign up for the $44 per year membership. I trust your sage advice and will give me something to explore over the winter here in Indiana. Keep posting those amazing videos. Looking forward to your security tips, and if you have concerns when traveling through jurisdictions with unconstitutional gun laws.
I bought the hot water bottle right after your last video about it and I love it! I have horrible sinus pain sometimes and that is perfect for that. Thanks! I’m putting the other items on my Christmas wish list. 😀👍🏻
Oooh great stuff! I just used the rechargeable hot water bottle a couple of days ago which I bought thru your channel when you had it on last time. LOVE it! Thank you! Great camcorder suggestion... I may be in the market for that. My favorite thing that I have in our teardrop are a couple of white rope baskets with leather handles. They fit on our front shelf by the curved end of the trailer and are soft sided... and they're pretty darn stylish... lol. My husband, Scott would probably say the A/C. Safe travels!
Nomads also love; Swiss Army Knives, pocket rocket stoves, Natures Head, water distillers, water thief adapter, carpenters clamps, electric power tools, portable gas powered campfire pit, Himalayan rock salt lamps.
Robin, I just loved this video. In fact, I made my husband sit down and watch it too! He had to have the rechargeable hot water bottle for one of his Christmas presents. Well, we opened our Christmas presents and he got lots of things, but he was most excited about his rechargeable water bottle! He has slept with it every night since he got it and if he forgets to charge it right before we got to bed, it takes but a short time to get a full charge, and get a really hot bottle for his cold feet. We both love it. I need one for me now as I charged it this morning and it is by my side as we speak. You are right, it is just the best and #1 also in our book. We also joined Harvest Hosts. Thank you for your recommendations.
Lol.. I’m coming back for a second dose of this video. I watched it a year ago and got the neck light and a copycat of the electric hot water bottle (copycatbroke🤨) - so I was tidying the van and have some $ to treat her with, and thought-I bet there’s some perfect things on Robins video to get! Yep! Starting with the cozy pillow! Sooo tired of spilling my coffee!!
We bought a membership to Harvest Host this past summer, 2019. We tried to contact two of them to plan stays between NC & ND. Neither of them returned our calls. It was very disappointing 😏
Harvest Hosts is now $79 a year! Wow that is not free and almost double from 2018. That’s definitely not a small bump. The reason they doubled their price? Less people are using it because it’s really not that great of a deal. Stay “free” after an $80 annual fee? Wonder how much you get from each person using your code. Passport America is still the best deal around.
I was unable to view your videos for a few weeks...I was sad and I didn't know why until I got you back today...You bring me so much happiness and information that I need for my travels...
Robin, I purchased a medical alert safety that I hang around my neck. It is used like your beacon. I got this from HSN and it was like $87 and there are no monthly fees. I did a test when I got it and told them it was a test and they said it was working and they were able to hear me.
Omg... I have been binge watching you since I found you for the last two weeks because you are absolutely so fascinating! When I saw this video name I thought I could skip it because it looked kind of silly about gifts for a nomad but I put it on as ‘background noise’ to something else I was doing and stopped what I was doing every two minutes to see what your little favorite things were because they were all so interesting. I need to buy more than half of the things that you just showed and I’m not sure how to give you credit for all of them but I would like to make sure I do. If I go to the Amazon link for one how do I order three or four things without having to get separate shipments for each item? You are truly amazing at teaching even a part timer everything I need to know about my RV and I am a single woman with a 90-year-old mother I travel with so you’ll never know how appreciative I am of all of your info and explanations. You are amazing Robin! Thank you so much.
love ya! you have the most 'awesomest' info...hope to meet you someday....heading to Tampa RV show today, 2 year plan still doing my research.....1st RV show ever and I am so EXCITED!!!!...hope you are having a beautiful day
Thank you, Robin! I want the hot water bottle for my Aunt when we get power outages. Then she can be toasty warm. Hmmm...I’d better get another one for me! Just though of something. I keep enclosures for the outside cats that won’t let me catch them. This would be perfect! Nothing to catch on fire, no noise to scare them and my electric bill won’t get crazy high. Fantastic!
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Robin..this is a wonderful list..ill take one of everything please..for sure loving that camcorder..is there a link in the cam box for the wide angle lens? Btw..that neck light? My neighbors wear theirs when they walk their dogs at night..among other things..but they actually hang them on a hook by their front door..could use that bed warmer water bottle right about now...toes r so cold...thx again for all you do Robin..you r truly talented✌💙😊
I ordered the rechargeable electric hot water bottle, they said I would get it 12/20 or 12/21 today is 12/15 and I received it today, I'm amazed, it only took a few minutes to charge up and it does get HOT wow, I'm really going to enjoy this, thank you, I'll let you know how long it stays hot for me, I'm already making my list of the things you have on your list, thank you again and take care of yourself, I look forward to your videos they are so informative and you make them fun, thank you
The wine tasting made me wonder if Rvers keep at least one nice thing to wear. Any special event clothes in that closet of yours? Hmm...could this be a future vid? :)
How cool- a picture of you, holding a picture of you, holding a picture of you, holding a picture...Sorry, got carried away. But it WAS cool. Great video!
Hi Carolyn I looked up the producer for the heat pillow because I want the European version. Said I saw it on your channel. They answered me (sadly not the European version) but they wanted your link to put it on their web. I sent it so I hope you get something out of it!
I'm glad I watched this episode as I had not thought about emergency beacons and after doing just a little research the one you mentioned is quite nice and one of the lower cost units. Thanks for the video! btw the drink cozy is cool, I think I'll be ordering one soon.
I saw the rechargeable water bottle on one of your previous videos and snagged it for work. I’m always cold and this has been a lifesaver. It’s so much more convenient than the mini heating pad I was using because now I’m not tethered to an electrical outlet. Thanks 🙏
The best travel gifts ever.That cup cozy pillow? Sleeping on the inside of a teardrop trailer? Oh yeah. All are functional, fun and affordable. The best gift? You. Thanks so much! 💜
Robin, every video you put out is so interesting. They are also very informative. I appreciate all the interesting things I learn from you so thanks and keep em coming. 🤗
I think some of these things are going to end up in my hurricane kit! Thanks for sharing!
Great tip! We should all have a go bag - packed & ready to go.
Pam Love Out in Calif we call it an earthquake kit! And I was thinking the same thing...
A great present I used for my folks and rv friends were grocery gift cards. A quick search of the internet can tell you what chains are in their area(s) or ask them what they prefer. Everybody needs food but it sure is nice not having to pay for it

Patty
This is probably the most useful video I've ever watched. My holiday shopping is will be stress free. Thank you.
👍❤ you can buy reusable ice cubes at the Dollar Tree if you're on a tight budget
Another great and helpful video, thank you Robin! I just checked on the Canon HD camcorder (black, base version) is only $169! Maybe it's a Black Friday special (11/22/18)
Possibility Everywhere OMG!! I want one. BTW, love your screen name! 🤗
Wow..i was already liking it at 219...im def checking it out now!!! Thx✌ Happy Thanksgiving😊
@@cherbear1996 I bought one!!
Possibility Everywhere, got one w/32gb v30 card $182. Deal on card too - typically $20.
I've got to get me one of the rechargeable hot water bottles for my pains :) Thanks for sharing,!
Used your links for Harvest House membership and three other items. Sadly the lighter is no longer available. Thank you so much Robin! You should host a national RV Channel!
Ebay has them
I too was looking at the lighter. I did find this one (www.amazon.com/dp/B0743MNHHY/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=recyclingcom-20&linkId=fc472e1da29868139e43d22f93bf25c2) that looks very much the same. not sure if it works/charges the same, though.
THANK YOU! Awesome! I want all of them and I’m not even on the road yet!
Someone is fast approaching 50K. Good going, my friend.
It’s been 8 months and it’s getting close to the 100K mark! Woohoo!

OMG this is a great list for anyone--not just those who are in an RV. When I am on the road alone, quite a few of these would be great to have...I would give this video 12 STARS!!!!

..

Robin you are too funny 😂 with loosing something or running things over you keep it real girlfriend !
what a useful video! happy thanks giving.

Good suggestions even for at home use, emergent type things as well as travel/camping! Happy Holidays!
These are fabulous ideas! As a divorced woman, I would like all of those items!
🤣😂🤣 my daughter was listening to me watching this.. she heard you say you ran over your battery with your car... and she exclaimed “Geez she sounds like you!” 🤪
Wow...you cover it all...love love love all the nomadic Christmas gifts...🌲😁
One additional point with those Ice Cubes - they don't melt so do not dilute your drink ! Cheers
very cool gifts - I'm only living in my RV on my farm while building my house but they all look nice to have anyway even with power (formerly generator). Merry Christmas!
I have two of the neck lights and use at least one every day. Thanks for your reviews.
Hi Robin. I absolutely love your channel and look forward to each new video. I’m researching and planning for a life on the road. Have I missed the video about your “arsenal of self-defense tools” you have at the ready? I refuse to live in fear, but believe in being prepared. You are a wealth of really good information and fun to watch as well. I hope to have the pleasure of meeting you on the road someday.
I'm doing one on survival gear soon. I've upped my game since this video too!
Way cool. I can’t wait to see. 😎
Wow! We love your videos, but this one is one of the top videos for me and my husband! One day we are going to do what you’re doing!!! Thank you and God bless you!!!
Oh yes, I'm also loving the Turkish towels! They are so thin, so big and so useful! I love the fact that in my camper they won't take us much space and yet will be so useful!
Thank you for sharing. The rechargeable hot water bottle is going to family this year. I have two family member who are always cold. This will be a awesome gift for them. Thank you love your videos. ❤️
You are fast becoming my favorite UA-camr! I want to be you...lol. No, I just want to have a life and be happy and free like you! I’m preparing early. My youngest child is 15 and wants to go away to college in 3 years. My 17 yr old is leaving for the Air Force in July. So I’m starting to sock away money and selling the things I don’t need now. Hopefully this summer I can afford a small travel trailer for my youngest and I to start a summer journey. Thank you for all of your videos!
The rechargeable electric hot water bottle is so great, it only takes minutes to charge it and it last a long time (hours) I charge it in the morning and have it on my lap on the way to work, it keeps me nice and warm (I live in Colorado) I take it into work because I get chilly at my desk and my co workers ask me about it so I gave them your link for it, I hope that's okay. Today I ordered the rechargeable neck light because I leave so early in the morning that it's still dark outside and I like to read at night, I'll let you know about it when it gets here, thank you for your videos, I'm going to be on the road soon and you've given me a lot of information, I've been taking notes from your videos, thank you and please keep them coming and be safe
You are such a natural at this!
A great list of gadgets! I'm going to share this video with my kids so they know what Mama wants!
Thank you for these extremely helpful videos!! You mentioned you were gonna do a video on what all you have to defend yourself but if you tell everyone that scares me that it will put you at risk! If they know what you have they'll be ready for it!

A great video, Robin! I ordered the "hot water bottle" for myself and my sister. I have knee issues and have a long commute until my retirement (1/1/21 - or sooner), when i hope to get that Leisure Travel Van. I am hoping that will help ease my pain. I also could not resist the opportunity to explore Harvest Host, so I did sign up for the $44 per year membership. I trust your sage advice and will give me something to explore over the winter here in Indiana. Keep posting those amazing videos. Looking forward to your security tips, and if you have concerns when traveling through jurisdictions with unconstitutional gun laws.
HELLO ROBIN, I LIKED ALL THE GIFTS YOU SHOWED VERY NICE. I HOPE YOUR DOING WELL. GOD BLESS YOU.😇😇😇
Thank you Patti!
I bought the hot water bottle right after your last video about it and I love it! I have horrible sinus pain sometimes and that is perfect for that. Thanks! I’m putting the other items on my Christmas wish list. 😀👍🏻
A lighter like the one shown was available at Walmart in/around the as seen on TV end caps near the registers was called taclighter i think.
Happy Happy thanksgiving
Oooh great stuff! I just used the rechargeable hot water bottle a couple of days ago which I bought thru your channel when you had it on last time. LOVE it! Thank you! Great camcorder suggestion... I may be in the market for that. My favorite thing that I have in our teardrop are a couple of white rope baskets with leather handles. They fit on our front shelf by the curved end of the trailer and are soft sided... and they're pretty darn stylish... lol. My husband, Scott would probably say the A/C. Safe travels!
Oh good!
Awesome! Love how there are so many great rechargeable items these days!
Robin your too cute! I love your videos and your positive attitude. You make me so eager to leave in April!!
Nomads also love; Swiss Army Knives, pocket rocket stoves, Natures Head, water distillers, water thief adapter, carpenters clamps, electric power tools, portable gas powered campfire pit, Himalayan rock salt lamps.
Robin, I just loved this video. In fact, I made my husband sit down and watch it too! He had to have the rechargeable hot water bottle for one of his Christmas presents. Well, we opened our Christmas presents and he got lots of things, but he was most excited about his rechargeable water bottle! He has slept with it every night since he got it and if he forgets to charge it right before we got to bed, it takes but a short time to get a full charge, and get a really hot bottle for his cold feet. We both love it. I need one for me now as I charged it this morning and it is by my side as we speak. You are right, it is just the best and #1 also in our book. We also joined Harvest Hosts. Thank you for your recommendations.
I love the topics you cover you are one of my favorite rv /travel UA-cam channels thank you so much
Lol.. I’m coming back for a second dose of this video. I watched it a year ago and got the neck light and a copycat of the electric hot water bottle (copycatbroke🤨) - so I was tidying the van and have some $ to treat her with, and thought-I bet there’s some perfect things on Robins video to get! Yep! Starting with the cozy pillow! Sooo tired of spilling my coffee!!
We bought a membership to Harvest Host this past summer, 2019. We tried to contact two of them to plan stays between NC & ND. Neither of them returned our calls. It was very disappointing 😏
Harvest Hosts is now $79 a year! Wow that is not free and almost double from 2018. That’s definitely not a small bump. The reason they doubled their price? Less people are using it because it’s really not that great of a deal. Stay “free” after an $80 annual fee? Wonder how much you get from each person using your code. Passport America is still the best deal around.
This video is a keeper! Thanks for putting it together.
Love love this video. Just put 2 items in my cart. Thanks.
Awesome list!! The only problem with Harvest Host, is that you need to have a unit with a toilet.
I was unable to view your videos for a few weeks...I was sad and I didn't know why until I got you back today...You bring me so much happiness and information that I need for my travels...
Robin, I purchased a medical alert safety that I hang around my neck. It is used like your beacon. I got this from HSN and it was like $87 and there are no monthly fees. I did a test when I got it and told them it was a test and they said it was working and they were able to hear me.
took YOU UP ON THE HARVEST HOST, I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED LAVENDER AND I THINK THE PRICE IS WORTH ONE TRIP.
Love the battery for the cpap machine!
Omg... I have been binge watching you since I found you for the last two weeks because you are absolutely so fascinating! When I saw this video name I thought I could skip it because it looked kind of silly about gifts for a nomad but I put it on as ‘background noise’ to something else I was doing and stopped what I was doing every two minutes to see what your little favorite things were because they were all so interesting. I need to buy more than half of the things that you just showed and I’m not sure how to give you credit for all of them but I would like to make sure I do. If I go to the Amazon link for one how do I order three or four things without having to get separate shipments for each item? You are truly amazing at teaching even a part timer everything I need to know about my RV and I am a single woman with a 90-year-old mother I travel with so you’ll never know how appreciative I am of all of your info and explanations. You are amazing Robin! Thank you so much.
love ya! you have the most 'awesomest' info...hope to meet you someday....heading to Tampa RV show today, 2 year plan still doing my research.....1st RV show ever and I am so EXCITED!!!!...hope you are having a beautiful day
I am new to this RV thing and enjoy all your information 😊 thanks!!
Thank you, Robin! I want the hot water bottle for my Aunt when we get power outages. Then she can be toasty warm. Hmmm...I’d better get another one for me! Just though of something. I keep enclosures for the outside cats that won’t let me catch them. This would be perfect! Nothing to catch on fire, no noise to scare them and my electric bill won’t get crazy high. Fantastic!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING ♡
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Robin..this is a wonderful list..ill take one of everything please..for sure loving that camcorder..is there a link in the cam box for the wide angle lens? Btw..that neck light? My neighbors wear theirs when they walk their dogs at night..among other things..but they actually hang them on a hook by their front door..could use that bed warmer water bottle right about now...toes r so cold...thx again for all you do Robin..you r truly talented✌💙😊
One of my favorite RV items. Zero-G Hose. Very compact and drinking water safe. Happy camping
I ordered the rechargeable electric hot water bottle, they said I would get it 12/20 or 12/21 today is 12/15 and I received it today, I'm amazed, it only took a few minutes to charge up and it does get HOT wow, I'm really going to enjoy this, thank you, I'll let you know how long it stays hot for me, I'm already making my list of the things you have on your list, thank you again and take care of yourself, I look forward to your videos they are so informative and you make them fun, thank you
Love your videos they are so informative. I can’t wait to hear what your new RV you decided to buy.
The wine tasting made me wonder if Rvers keep at least one nice thing to wear. Any special event clothes in that closet of yours? Hmm...could this be a future vid? :)
I’m new to your channel & watched this video. Great unique items & great reviews!! Thanks for sharing & keep the videos coming! Safe Travels!!!
I bought the hot water bottle. You were right about it.
One of my goals when I start camping full time is to meet you.
I rewound and rewatched the part where you were demonstrating the pillow qualities of the cup holder. Literal LOL! You sold me on that one device!
How cool- a picture of you, holding a picture of you, holding a picture of you, holding a picture...Sorry, got carried away. But it WAS cool. Great video!
So glad you shared! We have traveled full time for 15+ yrs and there is always something to learn.
Happy Thanksgiving! Love you Glenda and the boys
I watch a LOT of UA-cam videos, and this is one of the best I’ve seen lately.
Thank you!! I have a pink rechargeable hot water bottle currently warming my back. Heaven.... Always learn something on your channel.
Love the cam corder!
Such a great video. I can't decide which or All of those things I want first. Thank you.
Hi Carolyn I looked up the producer for the heat pillow because I want the European version. Said I saw it on your channel. They answered me (sadly not the European version) but they wanted your link to put it on their web. I sent it so I hope you get something out of it!
Thanks Sylvia! Btw, I'm Robin 😀
Robin- you are producing consistent quality content and doing videos from new angles for your community. Cheers to you!
Thank you mama.!! That is my main thing.☺
I'm glad I watched this episode as I had not thought about emergency beacons and after doing just a little research the one you mentioned is quite nice and one of the lower cost units. Thanks for the video! btw the drink cozy is cool, I think I'll be ordering one soon.
Robin thanks so much for your idea of how to build shelves in your LTV. My husband is right now at Lowe's getting the materials to put in our shelves.
Great survival gear. The monthly fees are killer the one you chose is perfect!
Harvest Hosts is now $79 US/yr. That is almost twice of what it was last year. They just might see a slow down in new clients.
I saw the rechargeable water bottle on one of your previous videos and snagged it for work. I’m always cold and this has been a lifesaver. It’s so much more convenient than the mini heating pad I was using because now I’m not tethered to an electrical outlet. Thanks 🙏
I want all of them lol. Enjoying your videos. Ty
