This week on Zoom and Zoomies, Britt and Vy hit the road (again!) and dive into how they actually decide where to travel next in their full-time camper life. 🚐💨 From planning around marathons, birthdays, and Bigfoot festivals 👣 to navigating border crossings, cell service struggles, and Starlink confidence levels — the crew breaks down their process for choosing destinations while balancing remote work, weather, and their sanity. Plus: camper maintenance chaos, pet drama updates, and why Vy might be turning into a pyromaniac 🔥.
🎙️ Intro + Catch-Up
• Britt lost a tooth nerve (and weirdly had a relaxing dentist trip)
• Vy’s pyromaniac origin story begins (thanks Shane 🔥)
• “Zoom and Zoomies” = two lesbians, three cats, one dog, one camper, endless chaos
• Setting up today’s topic + segments
🚨 What TikTok Didn’t Tell Us / This Week’s Freak Out
• Owning a camper = surprise mechanic training 🧰
• Truck adventures: DEF injector issues, air filter replacement, and transmission pressure learning curve
• Realities of maintenance on the road
💡 Zoomies Tip Jar
• Get a bike! 🚲
• Facebook Marketplace = great for finding second-hand bikes
• Adds freedom, fun, and a break from camper life logistics
🐕 Random Larry Report
• Surprise plot twist: Larry has a small dog?! 🐶
🗺️ Main Topic – How We Pick Where to Go
• Often plan trips around events or people (Bigfoot Festival, Toronto Half Marathon, weddings, family visits)
• Add nearby stops to make the drive more interesting
• Example route: Buffalo → Toronto → Lexington → Tennessee
• Route checks: big rig accessible roads, truck stops (Loves/Pilot apps), Google Maps previews
• Criteria for stops include Reliable cell signal or Starlink access 📶, Sites large enough for the camper, Full hookups if staying more than a few days, Minimum 5-day stays preferred (less packing/unpacking stress), Good weather window ☀️❄️, Close to friends/family
🐾 Pet Drama Report
• Lilo learned to throw up politely into a paper towel (iconic)
• Everyone handled the big travel weeks like champs 💪🐱🐶
❓ Random Question of the Week
• Q: What was your favorite part of the trip?
• Britt: Seeing Niagara Falls 🌊
• Vy: Niagara Falls + Canada’s incredible scenery + campfires forever 🔥
