I thought traveling and living in a van by myself would be scary. Instead, it's restored my faith in humanity.

• After two years of traveling, my adventures have reminded me of how kind people can be.

It’s still very important to follow safety protocols be vigilant while on the road since encountering those possible dangers (and others) isn’t out of the question.

Two years later, though, I’ve learned that the world isn’t as scary of a place as we often make it out to be. Yes, there are bad people out there, but my time on the road makes me believe the good ones far outnumber them.
