Car-Dweller's Journey: Assisting Nebraska After the Tornado (2024)

  • My name is Arslan and I’ve been living in vehicles for the past few years. My journey of alternative living began after I was fed up with the high cost of rent in the United States. I fell in love with the idea of living on the road, so over the years, I converted a sprinter van, a Camaro and most recently been living in my 2014 chevy suburban camper car. I enjoy making CZcams videos and recording my different experiences to share with you guys. I’m also a nurse half days of the week because I have a significant passion for helping people.
    In This video: Being a CZcamsr who explores new cities from my car, I had plans to record a video in Omaha but all of that changed once Nebraska was hit with a tornado. So, I decided to stop by local towns that were damaged and help in anyway I can.
    CZcams Posting Schedule: Saturdays 9am EST
    I love reading your comments and wish I could reply to all of you but my schedule doesn't allow. But I always reply to SUPER CHATS because they pop up on my phone!
    P.S. If I need to tell you guys something, I will comment and pin it on my latest video.

    As Mr. Rogers said, “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’”
    You are a rock star. Thanks for helping!

      as someone who used to work retail, that girl's attitude has no place in any kind of work environment I don't care how tired she is or whatever. i and many have gone thru back to back shifts on holidays and crisis situations and we don't bring out our nasty to customers or to each other. I hope that girl and people who know her saw Arslan's video so that it serves as a lesson of WHAT NOT TO DO in retail.

Of the 54 comments posted as I write, none of them are skeptical. That is a testament to your character. You are documenting what you see in this country in a most contributory way. May you inspire many others to do the same.

    Yeah, workers in stores don't want to help us find things anymore. At Wally, if we even look like we're going to ask a question, they turn their heads and almost run away.
