One of the greatest things in life is escaping the feeling of being overstimulated by our society. The peace and quiet leaves so much time for deep thought and contemplation, which leads to growth and healing without distractions. You are definitely wise beyond your years. And holy crap!!

Imagine having the hydraulic platform at the back as somewhat of a deck, that folds up to protect your sliding door (hopefully one that opens completely, not just one that has a half sliding and the other one fixed), and then other panel that lifts up to make an awning above the deck. When both are folded, the truck looks stealth. When both are open, you get an amazing view. I want a box truck now... Damn you for putting ideas in my head! I'm really excited for your project. Keep being amazing!

True. There are freaks and weirdos everywhere. Most predominantly in urban concrete environments. Someone that attractive will get attention anywhere. good for her to carry on and not stay cooking a meal for a husband in some "safe" suburban house cause she's too scared to leave.

@justchill135 Жыл бұрын

If you watched earlier videos her pet peeve is people being concerned for her safety out there. I'm sure she if she has a safety plan she's never gonna share it publicly. Better to go live ur life to the fullest while your young than worry about small statistical chances of something bad ever happening. I left to travel iny 20s lotsa people cried about safety. I never got hurt once. More likely to get best up in your hometown bar than on the road.

@jphwife Жыл бұрын

@@justchill135 unfortunately , there have been many murders in campgrounds, on trails (including the Appalachian Trail), even National parks have had murders. I remember one serial killer stalked a trail, I think it was AT but can’t totally remember. Many people have reported being assaulted or followed by weirdos, and many many more have been victims of theft. Proportionally, definitely more in urban areas, but seems nowhere is really safe anymore. It’s like everyone has their heads in the sand. Doesn’t anyone watch true crime? Happens all the time! I grew up in a nice area and I know of several murders, some by strangers.
