Nikki got Camper as a rescue. He was abandoned and Nikki found him all alone in a field. Getting to go on such an adventure together seemed like a dream come true for both of them, so they made it happen.
After six months of traveling in the car, Nikki decided to continue with the lifestyle indefinitely, so she sold all of her possessions from storage.
Together, she and Camper have been exploring states in the US and going to national and state parks. They spend a lot of time hiking, swimming, and exploring the beauty of different areas.
“Back in the winter of 2019/2020 I moved into my car and have been living in it ever since! I am here hoping my story can inspire you to follow your dreams and tackle your fears, no matter what they be. For me, right now, thats living this lifestyle and giving back. Lots of love to you all!” she said in the caption.
