After a long 11 weeks of this Sprinter Van Conversion project, we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and putting the finishing touches on our tiny house's interior. Now that our van is insulated, wired, framed and painted we are moving forward with the challenging task of building the cabinet faces and finishing the trim work around the kitchen and pantry area. And with only 1 more week left in our AirBnB it's crunch time to get this 82 sq-ft home in a liveable, working condition!

How Did We Get Here?
This is going to be our 3rd time converting an empty cargo van into a campervan and we are both excited and nervous to take on this project. We want this build to be the ULTIMATE OFF-GRID VAN 🚐

Please please please do a “moving in & organising the van” video, like moving all your clothes in, grocery shopping & putting it all away in the van etc etc! I would love to see that xxxxx
I recently went from a Class B van to a class A motorhome and you'd be surprised how much stuff can come out of one of those vans! It took me over 4 hours to switch everything from the van to the motorhome when I took delivery! - bloggin brandi
I'M IN!!! LOVE TO SEE THAT!!
would love to see the "moving in" episode too. :)
YES!
chipping in to say that I would also love to see this!!!
I genuinely appreciate that the sponsor ad was left until near the end, it made this video so much more enjoyable
Ya, I like when they are at the start of the video or the end. When in the middle it ruins the flow of things. I’m much more likely to not skip through as well. I can’t stand reading negative comments about sponsorship, especially knowing they most likely don’t donate and/or buy merch; they just want free content with no ADs without considering and appreciating the financial cost and situation of the creators. I appreciate sponsorship because it allows me, and all viewers, the chance to continue following creators because they can afford to continue making new content.
Me too
I do like to see the ads. I am considering purchasing some of the sponsors products, once I find someone to install the water purifier. People cannot expect to receive all this free entertainment and learn about building without appreciating the costs incurred. Sponsorship allows them to keep adding new content, lets them have an income, and lets them spend more time on van building rather than 100% time on their business.
"Say hi, dad"
"Hi dad"
Dad status confirmed.
globe1987 when I read this comment I was at the exact same point in the video XD
The sad thing about this vlog is that is one of the last before they leave....and then we wont be seeing Bob for a long tim. And we love Bob in vlogs 🥺
Awe haha we’ll be around the office a lot more so don’t worry Martina! Bobs here to stay 😊
Yay!! Love Bob! Great new haircut! 😊
@@eamonandbec Happy Birthday Becs, sorry if I'm late but hope you had a fantastic day
Can't wait to see you back on the road x
You guys should take bob on a trip with you
The longer you two are at home the more the Canadian accent is coming out, eh? ❤️
I remember watching the conversion of your first van while sitting on my couch and saying: I’ll be doing that one day! Now I’m writing from my self converted van in Patagonia and it’s so crazy to see you finishing another van! Thank you for inspiring us so much! And good job with that one!!
That’s sooo nice to hear
Ohh look at that! 😊
How cool is that?! Thanks so much for being a part of our community for so many years. Congrats on making your own dreams a reality 💜
Eamon & Bec thank you so much for your reply! Maybe see you down the road someday!!? 😃 hugs!!
Why did this episode feel so short 😭 next Sunday morning can’t come quick enough!!
I thought so too. I love watching these 2!!
13:39 is such a cool transition!!
Who’s waiting all week for eamon and bec? 🙋🏻♀️ y’all are so inspiring. Love you guys!!!
I agree.
Meee
O M G Bec is turning 30 ? ❤️❤️❤️. She looks like 18 yrs old. ❤️. So I never really write but been watching you guys for years. I’m one of the thumbs up people that view your channel. I Absolutely love ❤️ all you guys do. Bec you are beautiful and such a ray of sunshine ☀️ every time I see you. Eahmon. (sp). You are such a great guy with all you can do. Van builder, boyfriend, husband and travel companion. No wonder why your lady loves you. I love the build and just wanted to say thank you for the information and sharing. If you ever come to Bangor, Maine in your travels I would love to see you. Be Safe. ❤️
007nadineL what-
I bought a 2010 sprinter three months ago while i was still in military service, and the van is still not ready. Makes me feel bad seeing you do it in couple weeks😅. BUT the good news are that the van is gonna be ready this week and i get ro move in my first debt free house in the age of 19!!!😄
Im so excited for you. Wishing you a happy a safe joinery in your new home
How have the first few weeks been going
@@psychocucumber7408 Just awesome. I'm still a little tied to my home town but i've been traceling quite a lot. I had a 9 day roadtrip to northern norway too :)
Eamon modeling the undies has me DYING!!! 😂 Lookin’ good bud! And the whole scene of Bec trying to figure out the shipping container door was so so sweet. I genuinely appreciate yalls enthusiasm, love, and the ability to make us laugh during these troubled times. Stay safe and well, wonderful people!
This is the only RUclips channel that I actually remember “it’s almost Sunday, time for a new episode!” Love you guys so much :) Van life is fun, but it’s your positivity and personality that makes me love this channel... just ordered Some chai as well!!! Woo hoo!!
Awe thank you so much for the love Maggie!! We really appreciate the support ❤️
Bec is such a sweetheart.
Thank you 💜
… and a 100% ringer for Ali McGraw at the same age. WOW! happy b-day, Bec.
@@prestondeanes4390 Very true!
As a nurse this video made me extra happy ! Thank you for honoring the front like workers ! 🙏🏻🩺🥰
Oh Bec! Your 30s will be absolutely FUN & GORGEOUS 🎉
That transition at 13: 45 sec. So smooth that I thought it was someone else outside the van.
007nadineL 😂 ur right 🤠
AGREED! I tripped out when it happened lol😁
@@007nadineL ???
Holy shit I had to watch it 3 times. I was so confused at first
Like watched it 3x at the slowest playback speed and was still impressed
"by who? kids?" what a masterpiece of a face from Eamon
I literally saw this comment and Eamon said it😂
Hi guys, first of all, I’m like many of your subscribers who found your delicious vlog during quarantine. I’m addicted!! I know this sounds a bit trite, but watching your videos has really changed my life. It’s re- acquainted me with the “old Sadie”- the one who had a zest for life and was a lot more impetuous than I am today. I used to love spontaneity! But then life got in the way and I found myself saying “no” a lot; only saying yes when there were clear cut plans laid out. Boring, right? But just watching your videos has brought me sooo much joy and I realized that I need more spontaneity and the courage to take more risks in my life. I hope this makes sense.... Anyway, I’ve started making small changes and although it’s not set in stone, I’m already feeling giddy and hopeful about the future. So thanks, E and B! On a side note: Happy Birthday, Bec! I hope you realize that you and Eamon have accomplished more things than a lot of others have in an entire lifetime! So enjoy your 30’s and the decades yet to come. 🎂🍰🎁
I enjoy clips of Bec using power tools. She uses them with such finesse. Like using a sewing machine rather than a jackhammer.
Life begins at 30. Everything prior to that was just practice!
Happy birthday Bec!!!
The van looks amazing, great job!
💖🐾💖
AWE thank you Susan!! Excited to see what the next decade brings 💜
How did Eamon get to be so handy! My boyfriend swears when he has to change a lightbulb! I'm as bad!
Haha I grew up with a dad just like your boyfriend so I know the type 😂. Eamon's dad Bob is super handy PLUS Eamon is a super curious kind of guy so he just seems to get how things work etc
No kidding. My dad could build or fix most things. I wish that my husband and I were more like that.
Ahaha my dad is like that too.
Right !? LOL can eamon host a workshop for guys to get handy please
Very generous gift to those angels of mercy. You guys rock..Good luck on your build, and be safe.
My daughter started following you a few years ago. She introduced me at the beginning of the pandemic. We spent a lot of our time catching up on past episodes. And cried with you when you had to leave Trinity in Morocco. My daughter’s birthday is July 11th! It would be so cool if you could do a shout out to Katie McDonald in Gold Beach, Oregon. She dreams of a future van life!!!
I love Bob🙋♀️
He's definitely got his own very loyal fan club 😂
I love 'Dad' he's good looking for his age 😂
Yes! I like Bob too. And his new fancy haircut!
The music has been fire lately guys 🔥
Awe thanks Sarah!! You wouldn't believe how long we spend looking for tunes 😂
@@eamonandbec what was the song at the start I love it
I agree!
You're killing me with the soft close and clips on the drawers. And that deep sink....🚐💨
Rewatching. Can’t believe how time flies and life continues on with changes that are unpredictable but embraced head on ❤
You guys have made me want to build a tiny home on wheels but I’m only 13 lol. I love u you guys so much!!
Same with me and I'm 15.
Same! I’m almost 15
Same and I’m 12
You know you're an adult when you get excited about automatic drawer latches 😂
Sara Gillett and new underwear 🤣
@@Pattybluehayes and socks as well!
This is by far the best van build layout I've ever seen.
i remember watching in the early days when eamon was saying he hated doing cabinetry and didn't want to do it again, and look at how far everyone's building skills have come
Hi guys, I think this is literally my first comment on RUclips ever, but I couldn’t help to tell you how much you inspire me. And how much I am beginning to really change my lifestyle. My journey of minimalism, vegan and sustainable lifestyle started more than a year ago, but I’m finally getting to that point where it makes more sense to have this lifestyle everyday. I just wanted to thank you guys for all the good vibes you’re sending through your videos. Hopefully, one day I will rent a van and see if this lifestyle suits me, and who knows where life will take me! Happy Birthday Bec! Can’t wait to see the next episode. Sending love from Romania!❤️
Loving seeing the van come along guys. It’s come so far already! You’ve inspired us to save up and give vanlife a shot. We’ll have to come back and rewatch these videos when we build ours. Cheers for your beautiful videos (and great ideas) ❤️
Thanks you two!! Good luck with everything 💜
omg bec is turning 30?!!! im 31 and a lawyer stuck in a job i hate
but good money makes my family happy....
i live vicariously thru you guys! rock on!
I cannot stress how adorable the two of you are. Can't wait to see the finished product
Guy's just a suggestion i have,after what happened to u last time in Spain when they stole from u i think when u finish building your van u should make it secure cheers.
Happy 30th Birthday Bec, Welcome to the 30's club. Hope you have an amazing day x. Sending love to the both of you xxx
Bob's hair looks great! Nice work Bec. Eamon, Bec & Bob, the van is looking fantastic!!
Anyone else think Bec’s dad looks like Steve Martin??😍
I thought the exact same thing! Sounds like him too!
Yes, handsome too. 🥰
Happiest Birthday! “I’m not just another pretty face, you know!!!” Lovin’ your progress! Have a lovely week!
Well i guess I will leave what i was doing for later since that dropped 😂
Hahah thank you so much for spending some time with us this morning! Hope you enjoy today's van build episode 😊
Love your new home! Happy 30th Birthday Bec! You are so sweet & so stinking cute! Hope Eamon spoils you for your big birthday! 🎈
This is. A real transformation when you look back and you want a fresh start it really turns time into the real are
You two make such amazing addictive viewing - loving your attitude to life! ...and that van is looking mint!! Happy Birthday to Bec too.....
Thank you so much!!
Postponing my sunday nap to watch this vlog first 😂❤️
😂😴😴 enjoy the nap
Omg same 😂
Well thank YOU for staying up for us Silke!! Hope you enjoy the progress we make on the van build this week 💜
Same 😀
@@VanTasticTraveling Heheh i did 😂
I love those faces on the cabinets. Super earthy!
I hope you guys see this comment as I just wanted to tell you how much I love your videos! Especially your van life build through quarantine. I've been going through a tough time lately with my anxiety and depression, but these videos each week have been helping immensely! I love seeing the progress and the positive energy that all 3 of you radiate. Your music choices for each video are so on point too! I appreciate the time and effort it takes to film and edit these videos 👌 Can't wait to see the adventures you'll have with Casa B, lots of love guys
Ouuuu Trent and Alíe got married now it’s your turn!,,,, such a sweet couple... always make me smile
the hype is real!!!! seeing the latches on those drawers was so rewarding:)
love you guys 🌞🧡✨
Their accents are sticking out more now that they've been in Canada for awhile
Love Big Bob by the way he’s a star. Take him travelling with ya.
These vids are always one of my top highlights of the weekend!
Thank you so much Celeste!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the transition at 13:43. That is some great camera work and editing.
The colour of the webbing turned out perfect! The yellow tone is all gone and a nice natural sand colour is created. Love that you used your own chai tea to create the colour. And I think the white wash is the right paint to go with it. Seems more organic. Great work guys! Look forward to your videos and new van progress every Sunday. Hooray for Casa B!
Behind the cabinet webbing... add a metal screen for strength & you can use magnets for whatever. (Decorations, Metal hooks for storing, Messages, Keys, etc.)
Looks very nice!
I don’t know why but 19:05 made me laugh😂
Happy Sunday to everyone
I love how the cabinets turned out, and I think the fact that you used the rattan on the other cabinet fronts really tied it in! I also love that you coffee dyed it 😍 edit: I also want to add that I absolutely love your videos. I have a Sunday morning routine of watching them with a cup of chai and it honestly starts my day-off so well!
“I’m more than just a pretty face ya know!”
Ugh love you both so much!!!!!!!!!!! 🤍
Great job guys.
Looking brilliant so far.good shout on them latches 😊👍👍
Happy birthday Bec 🎂🎉🎈
Peace all.
Yaaasssss for the sparkly tile and Bob's "Free 99" hair cut.
I am wating for this moment every week!!
Thanks for the continued support Kasper. Much love 💜
Me too! Addicted!
30 years of drop dead gorgeousness! A lucky man indeed Eamon!
You are a great couple, I love your videos and I wish you the best in this new but familiar stage in your life!
I really like your choice wheat color inner frames. Your attention to the details is wonderful. I've seen so many builds and rebuilds that looked "homemade " for lack of a better word. As a person being on fence as to whether I want to take on this lifestyle it means a lot to be able to see a van can be home. Not just something thrown together. Happy Birthday Becka. May God bless you with many more years to come.
I’m only 12 and have plans for a DIY van build with inspiration of you guys and others. Your van build videos have been very helpful so thank you so much 😊 happy birthday Bec 🧁🧁
Menna Charles same
You should put a sticker where the cabinets open so you don’t wear down the paint and easy location point too keep the cabinets nice
I'm pretty sure I've watched this video three times, waiting for sundays are painful! It's amazing how intimate these videos are, I feel like I'm right there working with them just less effort lol. I cant wait to look at these when I work on my van very soon!
I wish more people worked harmoniously like you guys. In addition you guys are so natural in front on the camera. Keep up the good work!!! I have a 1981 Dodge Vader RV and hoping to find ways to remodel it. Happy Birthday Becka.
I was so bored at home and you posted at the perfect time 🥰❤️
Amazing! Well we hope you enjoy today's van build episode and that we can help you fight some bordeom this Sunday ❤️
Bob is sooo cute, eamon was mean giving him web tea lol 😂
Can’t wait for next week! I always appreciate the scenic b roll when it’s time to drive. && Eamon @23:53 killed me 😂
If it hasn't already been done or suggested put little felt pads, squares or circles where cupboard doors touch wood frame....softens up the closure and eliminates door rattle. Love you guys. Thanks for sharing.
Trent and Allie got married. Are you two next? Just planting the seed ❤️
Happy Birthday Becca! Hope the coming year is filled with love, laughter, and travel!!!
Happy thirtieth Birthday Becca. We Love you and Eamon.
🥳 Happy birthday Bec I hope you have an amazing day!!!!!!! You deserve it after all that work. 🎉 🎉🎉🎉
just taking a quick study break ❤️
Thanks for choosing to take your break with us 💜
Thank you ... you guys are getting me through a pretty rough time x x
Sending you love and a big virtual hug Kirsty!
Woohoo! E nB! Sunday, is here! White wash the rattan and put something behind it like a trellis so stuff does not fall out. Unless it is for clothes.
I saw another video where they used the throw pillows for storing socks, boxers, extra jackets, etc! and easy accessible. Genius!
I've been looking forward to this all week ! X
Thank you for the love Amets 💜
I was here and saw them when they were filming this episode!!! Also just a DIY tip, if you keep your used paint brushes in the fridge they don’t get crusty and stuff! Love you guys so much!
Wrap rollers in cling wrap idk what you would call it 🤣 it's for wrapping food
Katie Yates : but then you couldn't use your fridge for food anymore, it contaminates... My dad used to do that when I was young and I'm in good health and so is he, but now that's it's known, we should avoid! Just like lead in the paint or BPA in plastic containers! :-)
Your Van is one of the better home builds I have seen. ☺️
Eamon, once per video you have me L’ing MAO. You tasting the strange brew for our amusement. 👏🏾👏🏾
Bob is looking more like “Higgins” from “Magnum Pi” every week...
he really is!
That's exactly what I thought.
So glad to see you used the teflon tape on your water hook ups.
I’m excited to watch this one!! Much love from England 💞
Sending love right back at you Abigail!! Hope you enjoy today's episode 💜
The music has been SO good the last few videos!
Its your day of all days. Enjoy and hope it is peaceful and joyful. Always enjoy the videos and take notes so I will know for my build in the near future. God Bless xoxoxo
“By the kiddos” 🥺🥺🥺
Love the idea of using coffee to stain the rattan!
Thanks Nina! And now our place smells like coffee at all times 💜
Can’t wait to see you guys get back on the road!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday Bec! You all have the best music in your videos!
The E-Man & The Beckers! Whooo Hooo! Love the progress with van especially the shower! I really like the sparkly tile.❤ As always keep inspiring others with your kindness. And keep showing us Van Life is possible. Yay, The Beckers is gonna be 30!!! You look GREAT for 30...what's your secret baby gurl? A cup of Chaiwala Chai keeps the wrinkles away?!🤣 I'm so corny. Lots of Love from Newark, NJ!!! Peace ❤❤❤
It’s looking very sleek. Love it! I want our van build to look similar :)
Thanks you two! Can't wait to see it all start coming together now 💜
Found your channel at the perfect time. Retiring from healthcare after 32 years, birthday July 4th and starting my own build. Stuck to you guys like Sikaflex to a van roof. Once Casa B is done we have a place for you in Owen Sound. Lots of room for ya and tons of stuff to do. Thanks so much. Cheers
Why do I like watching your videos, this is so entertaining. Thank you for doing these videos.
Hi Eamon and Bec thank you so much for liking my post my name is Mia Kirwan and I am 11 years old I would love to meet you some time
Safe travels
WHOO IM EARLY ! LOVE THE VAN BUILD
Good morning!! Thank you for loving this series 💜. Hope you enjoy the progress we make on the van today :)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BEC, from Louisville, KY! May you have many more happy, healthy years together...
Happy birthday Bec. Your life has just begun. Enjoy!
