  • My first van tour!!!!! This was a fun first VAN TOUR. That is what it is all about. Making sure the fun stays in this van life path we are going down. MOSSBERG is the third in what is hopefully, a long line of APE built vans. I am lucky enough to be friends with the creator of these lovely vans. So I was able to push him into featuring one of these amazing builds on my channel. Truly inspiring.

    Love the van and build etc but just wondered what you eat and if you can get by with just a hob and micro. Totally appreciate that not having gas is a massive help on terms of build and safety but I would think an oven is a very useful item?

    • @urbanarkoverland
      @urbanarkoverland  Год назад

      Hi mate. I also do not have an oven. And I don’t miss it to be fair. So many one pot dishes available. Plus many microwaves have oven option. Although a little power hungry. There are also such things like an omnia. You can literally bake bread. And it’s used on a hob 👍🏻
