Love the dark interior 👍
Yes & I greatly appreciate his attention to detail & organization 🙌
I love his build. And his joke about his bed is hilarious 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂.
It's beautiful home on wheels.. God bless all of us nomads and safe travels on the open roads!!
Key word his VAN!!! Love your van dude. Short King!!!😅
What’s with all the negativity about it being dark? My Sprinter is even darker inside and I love it. Very cosy and masculine. I think it needs an inside toilet and shower though. I have a slide out shower pan/toilet under the sofa seat.
Great van, and lovely photos :)
Hi, wow I love the van only thing is it’s a bit dark for me but it suits you. That’s all that matters in the garage. Got plenty of room for another fridge if need be anyway glad to see you’re wonderful vain. Hope you have a great time travelling around and seeing in the countryside from Australia
Beautiful photos love the van.
Great build, man!
Nice guy van👍.
How do you afford both lifestyles?
Your photos are awesome!
Happy Trails 🎉.
JO JO IN VT 💞
Photos really are awesome. That also answers the question as to how. Guy does photo courses, blogs, travel videos and general influencing stuff- he explains it at the end. Probably makes very good money. That van isn't cheap either.
Thanks. Yes I have online photography courses, workshops, and developed an editing plugin for photohsop. Those are my main income streams
Nice build! You have everything you need? For us girls we need a toilet.
Girl here. 32 Oz yogurt container. Then dump into Tide container to dump responsibly. Also have low profile 3 gallon bucket with sawdust &lid for #2. I’m in SUV. Spray bottle & handmade cloths for a back country bidet😂
Nice van
It is definitely a man cave on wheels!
So what exactly was clever about the design or storage? It's a nice fan sure but pretty standard.
Man cave on wheels.
Woww
Where is the toilet?
Maybe he keeps a shovel handy 😅
Why not mention where you had the van build out done?
The company is no longer building, but you can contact the owner Josh Theberge. He can point you towards the same people who worked on mine :)
Do you have a toilet?
Bro is not conserving water
So dark. Seems nice, but kinda hard to tell. Should have left the shades off for the video.
Nice build love the timber usage however I would need it in a lighter shade , purhapess cedar. bed is a great as well and window covers Id also want my van lifted as this one and an outdoor shower set up
