    Great van tour. I like the garage idea. I also like the skylight. The woodstove is cute, I'd like to learn more about them.
    The bed is great too. So unique. Thanks

    A very clever, resourceful woman! The decorative touches, including the hand-painted wood panels (beautiful!), really make this van feel like a home. I hope you and your daughter enjoy lots of adventures together. You are really expanding your daughter's horizons!

    What a gorgeous build! Meagan's plan for the dash is going to be beautiful! I love that her daughter gets to be artistic and contribute to the aesthetic. I love the idea of a fort beneath the bed for her daughter! I would really dig that. I wish we could have had a peak at that. So many things in this home are so beautifully implemented, really well thought out and designed, and artistically finished. I would be so happy living in a beautiful home like this!

Nice and neat with everything in its place. She should start an interior design consulting business for van and other dwellers.

    Hi Seven, hello Meagan, my fellow Canadian. WOW! I would say that is pretty great fuel mileage from a 350 pushin' a big brick down the road. I love that you involved your daughter and allowed her to help Meagan, as it is also her home. The pallet wood looks fantastic and I especially dig all of the natural coloured live edge features. The skylight is phenomenal! Your place is very homey and comfy looking, but with four generations of family having a hand in it that was inevitable. I love all of the repurposing you've done and the biodegradable soaps and such are really smart too. You have made that rig into a beautiful home and please tell Molly that her work absolutely adds to the appeal. Thanks for the tour guys! ...................................PEACE!!

    How lucky that you are pals with Ray; I'm pretty intimidated by electrical, too. But you seem super handy because your interior is awesome.
    Really cozy and a pleasantly welcoming space, Meagan. And it's sweet that your daughter is sleeping, basically, in a trundle bed. A pioneer throwback appropriate for pioneering women! Good luck!

I'm in Mississauga and just working on downsizing and saving up some cash to go all in to the vanlife. Thank you both for taking the time to share with us :) :) :)

    Tip for heat where you want. Place a tiny fan near where you want the heat and face it toward the heat or straight up. Works like a charm without blowing cool air toward you.

  • @bethanymay3056
    @bethanymay3056 4 года назад

    One theme I am seeing with the step vans is that there is no room for a dedicated bathroom. I am converting a school bus, but was very curious about the step vans, wanted to see layouts, get ideas if a step van would be a good down-sizing vehicle for the future. I would need a dedicated bathroom, so I am bummed that I have not seen one yet. This step van, though, is one of the best ones I have seen thus far. Very nice inside!

    You had me laughing from the moment you said you have a cushion problem, I love the way you have done your build, as only a woman can do, as we guys have no sense of design sense when it comes to making a space a home.
    I am currently in a 1979 Dodge Jayco Mini, which serves my purpose for now, just me and my cat [ a rescue from the Baja mexico) you have given me some very good ideas about design, as i am currently looking at moving up to a larger RV.
    If you ever need any mechanical advice, i am a retired Heavy duty mechanic and engineer inventor. No strings because your too young for me,,hahaha.
    Anyway,,happy trails girl,, may your tank always be full. Alex
