I love how you are always making friends with total strangers. In a time when everyone is head down looking at their phone, to look up and engage with someone is so important! Both sides benefit from the human interaction 😊 Its something I’m trying to do more, which is a good challenge as an introvert haha 🤙
I love that Nikki takes Camper everywhere she’s able to even in to the bathrooms. I very rarely leave my dog in my van because I’m afraid somebody will steal my van with my dog in it. I would be devastated.
As a Finn, we are proud of our Saunas and we have it in our houses next to bathroom mostly, some small city apartments excluded. And of course our summer houses next to lake. And of course the proper ones as just as this was heated with wood, not those electric ones! Finland is a small country of only 5.5 million people but we have over 3 million Saunas here! 😃
I had no idea your population was so small, I'm shocked. I now have even MORE regard for the Fins for being able to defend themselves against ruzzia. I'm happy that you and Sweden have finally decided to join NATO, congratulations.
Seriously in that weather in Finland it definitely was a must to have a sauna back in a day! i love it though in my region in summer everywhere outside is actually a sauna without a roof!😂
What an awesome idea to provide a sauna. Thank you for introducing us to the people you meet, the people who run awesome little businesses or clean up the beaches. I love it.
You can tell how imprinted (in a good way...) Camper is with you! He just seems to radiate joy on all the adventures you undertake! Fun to think he was "guided to" you and your mother that day, as you started your hike! You are both so lucky you discovered each other! Thanks for all the great videos! Mo-
Thank you Nikki and Camper for brining back so many fond memories of beloved home state!!!!! There are so many things to do in Michigan that would surprise many - many people who have never been to the "mitten state"... And the Great Lakes are unlike any other bodies of water. They truly are..... I am envious Nikki - enjoy to the fullest!!!
My home state is Ohio but I always felt like I had two home states with Michigan. Toledo is right on the Ohio Michigan border, so I grew up spending quite a bit of time in both states. Now I live in the Florida Keys which is AMAZING. Still miss the green trees, camp grounds, and gorgeous parks of NW Ohio and SE Michigan though.
So happy to see you back having more adventures again! Hocking Hills, Sand Dunes, vineyards, strawberry picking- just feels like a lot of fun was had this time around! Hope that means your recovery has given you some of that joy and ability back!
Our neighbor is a sauna! I have used MI_Saunas! Dan provides a great sauna culture and over 220 degrees with an ice bath feels soooo good for the body and soul!! Thank you for sharing!
So happy that you were able to experience Michigan and all the beautiful places it has to offer. Please visit again anytime. There are so many places to explore!!
Michigan is by far one of my favorite places in the U.S. I spent a lot of my time as a solo female traveler on the east coast. That's where my journey began. I love watching your adventures! It brings back fond memories of Hocking Hills and now Michigan. Thank you for giving me new ideas and inspiration. Now I'm on the west coast traveling. Just visited your favorite truck stop bathtub LOL I'm definitely thinking of going back to Saugatuck and Upper Peninsula before the end of summer.
Brings me so much joy to see you and Camper having June time fun in my home state❣ I live in Traverse City, and recognized your drive through. Looking forward to your next Michigan video. Hugs!
Very special video, I grew up in that part of Michigan and miss all the cool sights you visited. I can't wait for next week when you two get up to the U.P.!!! Rock on Camper & Nikki!
I did my first true ice bath a few months ago in Mexico. That was an experience. I had done my legs only before and that was tough...but whole body (up to neck) was a whole different expereince!!
I don't know how I got to your channel, but I got goose bumps when I saw that park sign and recognized the office area when you drove to it. I remember those stairs towards the beach very well too. My girlfriend and I happened to get the camping spot to the left of that stairs. We were very lucky since it was the 4th of July 2019, and it seemed like everyone was out to go camping 🤔. The first night we were allowed to stay at the field near the office, because all the spots were taken. I always wake up early and after a short recon the next morning, we moved our tiny tent from the field to that great spot. Lake Michigan was 'refreshing'🥶, but during the day it was well above 80F, so that was actually nice. The chipmunks came close to our tent and were a joy to watch. Great times! And very friendly camp site staff indeed. Trucker Greetings from The Netherlands. Great channel btw, love your energy and spirit, and the doggo...
I am subscribed to 88 UA-camrs (fishing, hunting, camping, etc). Only you and 2 others are on persistent notification (stays on screen till I see it). You are my fav spunky girl. So real and freaking funny. My cheeks always hurt from smiling so much! Luv ya 😘💕
I'm so glad you put up a video of riding the dunes Nikki! A friend of mine has friends up there and he was telling me about this. I had no idea there were places like that in Michigan! That would be so much fun! I never realized how beautiful it is up there. Those strawberries looked amazing!
@@NikkiDelventhal my wife Diane and I will take you to some really gold mines/stream around Pahrump Nevada ! If your even near Las Vegas, hit us up. will even donate/get you an AirBnB for a night. Love your channel and thanks for sharing 🍸
Niki, I love watching your channel. It’s always uplifting to see how much your enjoying life with Camper. Your fulfilling something I’ve wanted to do for a long time but not something I can do. The experiences your having are wonderful.
I wish I could have ur life!!! U have such a beautiful life and I’m over here stuck at my sister after a almost near death case of covid had me stuck in hospital for 4 weeks, lost my car can’t find a job life rly sucks but watching ur videos warm my heart every time!!! Just remember u help ppl so much with ur content never change!!!!

NIkki & Camper, Loved seeing this weeks video and content! I often jot down some of your travel places so I can go and see them in person. I'm in NW Indiana and hoping to see some adventures though our area soon! Be well & enjoy! -Shane
Wow, that whole sauna bit was super informative (currently googling the unesco intangible heritage list) and awesome! Dan is sooo cool! Anyway, I'm off. Think I need another dump 🤣
Gotta give you a lot of credit for your participation in various activites, so you can keep your vlogs interesting! You're an adventurous person, so many experiences may be easier for you to do... However, I would NOT have participated in that sauna experience! Massive credit to you! (And Best Wishes in your persistent search for a camper, van, or vehicle!)
I love your positive outlook on life. You really know how to enjoy everything because you really do "go with the flow". You and Camper make me smile. Sweet travels beautiful Beings!
For some reason this is one of my favorite of your videos…. Just puts the biggest smile on my face… the segment on the strawberries was so fun….and those are the most beautiful strawberries I’ve ever seen! Thanks for sharing.
A rite of passage for all Michiganians: swimming all the Great Lakes. 😉 Hope the state has welcomed you with open arms, beautiful views, and kind people.
Michigan is a nice state out in the countryside, lots of attractions of course you make everything so much better by your presence. You seem to be getting more youthful in each new video. Thanks for the tour of Michigan, have fun and enjoy life.👧👈❤😊
Great video! Thanks for taking us along. It's like I'm there with you on your adventures. Brings back so many fond memories. Question, what's in your burrito?
You are so amazing... Love on your terms and at your pace. That bit of kindness you showed was what the the world needs everyday... You and camper are extra special...
So glad to see camper and you back speaking to each other. He’s opinion seems to add just the right touch on you’ll travels. Another great adventure for both you, seems you’ll have a gift for finding unique places and people.
Those strawberries and adventures were beautiful in June in Michigan. The Michigan neighbor we call across the pond in Wisconsin sometimes are fun to be with. Hip to the hope I will see my brother there in October.
Good find, the people at King Orchards are the best!
Yesss I love them!!!!
I love how you are always making friends with total strangers. In a time when everyone is head down looking at their phone, to look up and engage with someone is so important!

We don't let people sit with us if they are going to be using their phone, so rude!!!! K
I love that Nikki takes Camper everywhere she’s able to even in to the bathrooms. I very rarely leave my dog in my van because I’m afraid somebody will steal my van with my dog in it. I would be devastated.
I can’t imagine you without Camper. You were two wanderers who found each other and kept on wandering, together. ❤️🐕

I agree!!!! Happy Friday!

@@NikkiDelventhal Nikki - You are beautiful and cute !!! Very sweet !!! 😇😊😘
What a lovely lady at the farm, VIP tour!
Yes! It was sooo much fun!
Loved seeing the You-Pick strawberry farm!! Our local one went out of business forever during 2020

I’ve been wanting to get up to see Michigan for the last six years! Hopefully one day soon I can get up there!
Proud Midwesterner (with family in MI and the UP) and I totally agree!
I love your simple pay it forwards. Such a nice touch more people should do
We should all pay it forward (whenever/however possible).
So happy to see you back having more adventures again! Hocking Hills, Sand Dunes, vineyards, strawberry picking- just feels like a lot of fun was had this time around! Hope that means your recovery has given you some of that joy and ability back!

Wooo hooooo 👍
I love camper and you for rescuing him!
Two words I love to hear in the same sentence:
Multiple + waterfalls
Adventure + fun
Nikki + Camper
❤️
By the way: I knew you would start a movement when I saw you with those kids ❤️
Camper is such an athlete like his mum❣️
The secret of happiness is freedom, but the secret of freedom is courage🙂
Nice videos☺love from malaysia🇲🇾❤

Be well & enjoy!

Where in NW Indiana ? I’m from Michigan City

Where did you leave Camper while you did the sand doon? I'm curious, because I am thinking about hitting the road and I have 3 little ones.
A very nice view at the lake campsite & picking strawberries. Camper is always a funny dog 😂
Camper is living his best life at that strawberry farm!!!!

My favorite place. I grew up in a small town on Lake Michigan. Best place ever.
You run into some of the nicest little, good quality places to buy coffee and food! The best!!
(Yup - lots of 0.25!!)
A rite of passage for all Michiganians: swimming all the Great Lakes. 😉 Hope the state has welcomed you with open arms, beautiful views, and kind people.
We got changed to Michiganders some time ago.
Enjoy your travels, stay safe and you and camper care for each other.
I’m so happy you were able to visit Michigan! I live in Frankfort, the weather this summer has been amazing!
Can you even imagine your life without Camper? I'm so glad you 2 found each other.
That sunset over the lake was MAGICAL! I've been to Indiana Dunes State Park. It shocked me to find such large, cool sand dunes...IN INDIANA!
King Orchard tour was fun watching you pick strawberries fresh from the plant. 👍
Michigan is a nice state out in the countryside, lots of attractions of course you make everything so much better by your presence. You seem to be getting more youthful in each new video. Thanks for the tour of Michigan, have fun and enjoy life.👧👈❤😊
Your reaction to the sauna made me smile.
You are amazing and your kindness is a gravity that pulls people towards you and gets people to open up.
In my home state!! Welcome!!! Have a great stay and you're always welcome to have a safe place in my driveway if you're ever in the area

Great video and the sunset at the end was icing on the cake!
What a beautiful person Betsy is! And how sweet to take you and Camper on a tour. What a lovely place❤️😊
Something adorable about saying it's your bed time. I've never imagined how cozy that would be at all..
Those strawberries and adventures were beautiful in June in Michigan. The Michigan neighbor we call across the pond in Wisconsin sometimes are fun to be with. Hip to the hope I will see my brother there in October.
Love watching you interact with everyone you meet…you spread immense JOY❤️
