- G'Day Guys,
Finally got around to finishing the van tour! I'll be honest it isn't easy making videos while you are enjoying van life!
Hope you like the tour of the van I'm currently travelling around in. I plan on living in this van for at least 12 months. We'll see how I go!
Cheers,
Paul

I've since upgraded the tyres to make it easier to travel on unsealed roads... check it out!

WOW Paul ! I just love how organised you are !
I think tidiness and organised travel is the way to go, especially in a small space, like a van.
Kudos ....
PS:I have been watching UK, Canadian, European and America VanLifers.
So to find Australian vanners is especially great, as to my being an Aussie. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
THANK YOU AND BLESS YOU ON YOUR JOURNEYS!
@@glendadowe Hey thanks Glenda! I can thank my organisational skills to my parents ha!
Well, they did a GREAT job !
Thankyou
I can't believe I just watched the entire video. And learnt about 25 things. Good job!
Cheers!! 👏
I like this set up much better than all the fancy campervan conversions. Anyone can do this and it works just fine.
Yup and all these years later I’d hardly change a thing it’s worked great. Keep it simple.
SO simple, but yet so perfect. Loving it! Wish I could live in such a nice area as well
Thanks for sharing! I did learn something, my van plans are too large and complicated. I love the compact and simple ideas you have implemented in this van!
Yeah I’ve learned it’s good to keep things simple!!
Hey Paul, thanks for taking the time & sharing. I love your simplicity of life. As a longboarder wanting to tour, that hullavator suggestion is absolute gold! Thanks again.
Thanks for the support John!!
Nice, simple and down to Earth - I like it! Quite a few items of interest too... Good on you mate!
Keep it up Paul. Really enjoying your videos and following your adventure. Make sure you keep showing us all the spots you get to. Appreciate all the excellent tips for getting through your days. SUP is excellent for no wind days, I'm sure it will grow on you.
Thanks Martin.... I’ll try to film, I’ll be honest it’s a struggle for me to film all the time!
Hi Mate, wonderful job! I ve just started my windsurfing and surfing, your space management and handy staff are perfect, you are proud of Aussies! Good on you !
Thanks Tom!! 👍
Excellent video, and super sharp optimized van organization! Very inspiring!
Thanks David!!
Waw your van is so cool! Thank you for the video, really good tips. I love your Thule... as a woman I have experienced several tricky situations when bringing my windsurf board up or down my jeep... Also, loving the bed/sofa setting. Have fun on your trip!
Thank you very much Nuria!!
Cool to see what your van set up is like, very organised indeed! And very professional looking video Paul 👏 Well done.
Thanks very much! 🙌🏽
joy to watch. Thx for sharing your experience with your followers allover the world. Fancy gadgets you have. Enjoy your upcoming summer
Appreciate the support thanks Harald!
Love your set. I could really adapt that for fishing. Thanks for all the great ideas.
👍👍
Dude, you have put a lot of thought in organizing your van. Awesome!
Ha yeah I did!
Love your board to roof system! As a short, extremely tired post surf, person, I need this! 🙌🏻
👍
Thanks for the thoughtful and detailed account.
Very insightful.
Hope you have a nice Christmas!
Thank you!! 🙌🏽
Hi Paul, excellent video and thanks v much for all your super useful tips - am planning to get a van to cruise & windsurf through the Canary islands so your video comes really handy. Cheers for that mate, enjoy your travels and wishing you great wind & waves!!! Ben
Awesome cheers Ben hope you have a great trip mate!
Awesome setup! Those views from the back of the van were phenomenal
Yeah mate you can get some million $ views!
Hi Paul.
Love this . What an adventure . Soak it up .I'm a 63 year old pom and used to surf and windsurf 40 years ago . I had six months in 1988 travelling and surfing the east coast .your brought back memories for me . Keep doing what your doing
Thank you Paul! That’s super cool you were here in 1988. That was such a great year in Australia.
I'm 2 years late but with the magic of RUclips I caught up with your wonderful video. Awesome job on gearing out. Thanks for sharing. California.
Hey thanks Ash glad you enjoyed it mate!
Thanks Paul, just a perfect inspiration video.
Thanks!
Well done!
I´m pretty impressed and looking forward to organize myself better on typical weekend windsurf trips to the baltic sea of germany.
Have a nice time!
Hey thanks Paul enjoy mate!
Paul bloody great video, I am getting a van in July, I think you have solved all my problems in one video!! All the best
Cool Mick!!!
Life in a van can be organized scientifically and also incorporating so much modern technology , really amazing!
Yeah that’s right mate all the modern tech makes living in a van so much easier!
Hey Paul, nice edit 👍 You’ve got your set up nailed. Ah- the benefits of the Ozzy climate for doing what you’re doing. I say that as I look outside at a 3 degrees, wet, windless and driech day in Edinburgh. Keep up the content , really good. 🤙
Ouch yeah 3 degrees wouldn’t be much fun in my van!
Hi mate,i only looked at your site because i was looking at buying the van for work, but was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enthralled .Loved the way you explained everything .Great video, keep them coming.
Thanks Mark!! 🙌🏽
Great set up Paul, well presented. Noticed that band on elbow, same thing i had to wear the last few years of sailboarding before i had to give it away, it works well though for tennis elbow.Enjoy your life mate.
Thanks a lot John!! Yeah I've got Tennis Elbow at the moment! It's slowly getting better hopefully be gone in coming weeks. Thanks for the support!
Your setup is awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Bedankt Steven!
OMG what an amazing set up! Especially those folding roof racks 😲😲😲
Thanks DJ!
Love the simplicity of all this.
Glad you think so Kim!
Thanks Paul, i like the way you travel.
🙌
Great van setup, super organised and clean. I will do a video of my van, simple setup mainly for windsurf gear, can sleep overnight in van but tent if staying longer.
Cool Ashley look forward to it mate!
Fantastic video. This would be invaluable to anyone doing windsurf van touring.
Super presentation of all the equipment outside the van. You've gone to a lot of effort there!
Especially interesting to how to van life without major renovation of van and complicated install of electrics, sinks etc... Your way is so simple. Thanks again.
Thanks so much David!!
Thanks for this. Lots of great ideas I'm copying! Awesome quality video and very entertaining. Ta!
Great! 👍
Love your van, picked up lots of tips thanks.
👏
I love this video! Stunningly done and your voice is very nice and clear. A voice for many more of you brilliant videos:)
Thanks Mum! 🤗
@@windsurfer LOL
Great video mate. Some cool products I might adopt myself.
Only one word is needed, perfect
Thanks!! 🙌🏽
Hello Paul!
Love to hear that your flyscreen and AIRlock from us is such a great feature in your layout and so useful for you... I bed this summer it will help you again from staying mossie free! Thanks for sending a couple of people over to our website, so they can order some for themselves. You videos are great- well done! Bye Pia
Hey thanks Pia! Super cool to hear from you. I’ve sent lots of people to your website since I bought the gear gear from you. It’s been fantastic... made my van living a lot more comfortable. Hope business is going great for you! Cheers, Paul
Can I get a link for the fly/mosquito screen rear please(2023 hiace )
Yea love your drone work keep it up. So jealous as it winter here and would nice to be somewhere warm!👍
Thanks Ken! Another few months and then it will be spring for you again 🥳
Well done. There are great ideas!!! Thanks!!!
Cheers Phil!
Loved this very awesome. HAPPY TRAVELS ✌🏼
Thanks RoadRunner!
Hi Paul thanks for sharing your video 👍
Hi Paul - great video I really enjoyed it, thanks
Thanks Matthew!
Great back of the van views and altogether a very interesting segment - the only trouble may be there's not quite the space in this amazing lifestyle for a little Sheila.
Ha yeah.... well I do a have a Queen size bed in the van so there's space!
Vids are looking so professional in editing and style Paul. I’ll getting the pump shower !!
Yew cheers Tim!! I bought it at Decathlon I think they are the only ones that sell them.
Great vid mate, and such an awesome setup! My new Hiace is about to arrive and I can't wait to hit the east coast for some adventures. I'm a SWR boy from back in the day, couldn't help noticing you were pulled up at Little Bay in Arakoon - beautiful spot, I grew up just a few k's from that beach. Keep up the good work mate!
Hey cheers MC! Mate you’ll love the van it’s been such a dependable & comfortable car. I love that Little Bay spot one of my favourite spots in OZ. Have fun on the road!
wow that scrubba wash bag is under rated genius! for solo or couple travel motorhomes it could be all one needs!
It’s great!
Amazing setup Paul! Bet you feel as free as ever travelling around like this :)
It’s done me well Mitch.... it’s pretty simple but works great!
great setup Paul, thanks for sharing, that Little Bay is pretty nice :)
Thanks!
Great vids! Those kayak racks 👌 did a four month trip with five boards and after having to take them off the roof every time.. decided my next set up MUST have boards under the bed! It’s in progress and the most I can fit is six so maybe a Kayak rack is the next addition if I can’t control my board addiction.
Ha yeah Elspeth I can relate! 🤪
What a great room tour? Love it
Thank you!!
Well organised in the most beautiful country for van life! Enjoy! (No mention of the Thule? kayak? roof rack? ;-) Ahh, here they are late in the video) Great stuff!
Thank you Isa & Tom!!! Look forward to chatting with you soon!!
Super PRO!! Amazing!! thank you for sharing!!
Thank you Marcelo!!
Awesome!! Well planned!! 👏👏
Thanks Mário!!!
Best van video I have seen. So much more useful than those Sprinter mega vans. The Thule roof racks are the schmick!
Thank you Ranjith!! 🙌🏽
Yeww cruising round my hometown when you pulled up the fuel app, up the Shellharbour 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Ha cool Kaine, Shellharbour is one of my favourite spots! 😍
This is the most realistic camper van I've seen 👍
Hey. I’m not sure if you’re still living van life but this is the beat video I’ve seen. I’ve been researching for years and just bought a Hiace with a frontline conversion. I windsurfed for 15 years but have raced yachts for the past 10. Can’t put one of those on top sadly LOL. Your hints and tips are fabulous. Thank you so much. Love the washing bag and the juicer. I found paddle boarding so easy. Stand in the middle. Soften your knees and off you go. Listening to you talk about 88 litre wave boards - I miss windsurfing. Only have my dakini wahini harness left.
Hey thank you very much Celt Downunder! Yes I'm still living the van life... I have stayed a few months in a house for a bit of a change but will be back on the road again soon. That's cool you have a professionally converted Hiace.... they work very well. Also super cool you used to windsurf.... I went out today actually.... it's been a great sport for me.... Maybe you'll get back into it! If you want something mellow have a look into the 'Windsurfer LT' there's a growing community around it.
@@windsurfer thank you I will take a look. Yes I’m looking at van life punctuated with a house sit here and there. Doubles up as getting an animal fix too.
Great set up, really inspiring!
Thanks Jay!!
Such an awesome rig man! Love it. Freedom.
Cheers Jarrod!
Nice set up man ! Can’t wait to see some windsurfing action 🔥🔥
Yeah I’ll try but I also like to windsurf ha!
After this video ordered the „Thule Hullavator Pro“ immediately ... and now, four month later at last i got it! 😊 Thank you for the idea using it with windsurfboards! Best regards from Germany, Baltic Sea
Awesome TaxTeach hope it works out for you!
@@windsurfer Yes, it works, but not so easy with two windsurfboards like in your video, because of the footstraps ... they need depth and i have to fix the board additionally during attach.
@@taxteachyoutube Maybe stack the boards at opposite ends?
After watching too many videos on Van/mini van set ups, your setup finally ticks all my boxes. And you are in Australia too!
As I would love to duplicate most of your setup I was hoping for a product list but life is not meant to be that easy. However, your bed and roof rack system’s link/name/model would be super helpful.
Can’t stress enough how much the quality of your film influenced and shaped my imagination. As a film maker, you have a real talent. Cheers.
"your bed and roof rack system’s link/name/model would be super helpful." Covered in the extensive comments section thanks to your frequent reponses to queries. Cheers.
Hey thanks Geoff...I have to say now that I’ve been in the van for over 12 months I have to say the setup has actually worked really well for me. The first couple of months I was thinking maybe I needed a bigger van but now I absolutely love the size of this van and the setup. The roof racks are called the ‘Thule Hullavator’. I bought them here roofrackstore.com.au.The bed base I bought from a shop in Sydney called thecomfortshop.com.au. The model of base is called the Forza.
I'm clearly not having a productive morning watching all your videos. This was truly epic. Such a well thought out van - I can't even begin to comment on all the aspects but well done. If your FlyMount ever breaks just use a simple clamp from the hardware store. Cost you about 4 or 5 Mars bars 🤑 That's what I use, not that I often film myself. Ah being married with two kids I sometimes dream of a life like this. Keep living it up! I've no doubt it's not always easy, but there must be so many magical moments and days. And yeah, I got a few good tips out of that.
Thanks Adrian glad you enjoyed the video. It’s a simple set up however it’s worked great! Yeah, it’s certainly tricky travelling solo sometimes but it’s also been great. You end up having to befriend yourself!
Love it man heaps of great ideas
Cheers Doggzy!
You are awesome! Incredible and legendary!
Have you been speaking to my Mum?
Hey mate! Great video. Just picked up my new hiace and this video along with the video on the all terrain tyres helped me seal the deal! 👍🏽🤣
Congrats Lucas!👍
Cheers legend, whilst I’ve got ya where did you get the bed you have in the back?
Cheers
@@MrLukie27 www.thecomfortshop.com.au/forza#details
Great vid, keep them coming. 🤙
Thank you Steve!
Epic van, epic video editing. Would be cool to see more van videos 👍
Thank you mate!
Good setup, some great ideas.
Thanks Peter!
Hey Paul, if you're ever up around Coffs Harbour and want to have a windsurf let me know! Keen to connect with other windsurfers. Sweet rig and love the vids!
Sweet cheers Jarrod! Have you connected with James Elks yet? He lives in Sawtell and is a keen windsurfer.
Lovely video, really enjoyed it, greetings from Ireland 🤙
Hey thanks Steve!
Love this. Inspired!
Thanks!!
Love the surfboard cradles
👍
Great vid
Thanks mate 👍
Really nice piece of kit that!
Wicked set up mate! Well done.
Thanks Charles!!
superb!!!!
Mann I will buy this battery for my new van, I'm getting a new hiace soon van wait for all the paperwork to be done. Nice video see ya around
Cool have fun with your van Vinicius!
i bloody love this video
Stoked to hear that Ant!
Fanatic Fan!nice
Nice van and setup!👍
Thanks 👏
Here you are, proving you don't need to spend 60k on a van to make it a camper. Great video.
Great video Paul!
Thanks Mark!!
Lot of good ideas. Some of them I‘ll copy.
👍
Best van ever! Soo cool
Cheers Alan I’m happy with it!
Very nice to watch.
Thank you Jörg!
Great job on the video Paul
Thanks Tony!
Awesome setup 👌🏼
Cheers Brock!
YOu look like you have mastered van life too quickly like a pro. Very organized. Australia is a great place to do this abandoning fixed place of abode lark. Safer than most countries.
I’ve kept it pretty simple Martin. So far so good!
So good!
Cheers bruv! 😀
Great video Paul, so many good ideas for compact living, wondering what brand the bed is, many thanks
www.thecomfortshop.com.au/forza
Hello Paul, excellent video! Loved your video on the Falken tyres too, please can I have a link for the bed frame and mattress you have used in your setup?
Thanks in advance! 🤙
Hey thanks Connor happy you liked it mate. The bed frame is this one - www.thecomfortshop.com.au/forza
The 2 single mattresses I organised at Clark Rubber.
Super organised and clean! :) And the lounge made me very jealous. I'm curious why not use electric shaver? The good ones (like my Panasonic ES‐LV65) are doing even better job than wet shaving, and you can shave even when driving ;)
I didn’t know about the Panasonic shaver! Wow it can shave as close as a razer?
Living the dream dude
As long as your healthy it's good.
Just Gold.
Thanks
Thanks Wim!
Great vid Paul. You’ve swung us on the Thule roof racks. We’ve 2 sups, a longboard and a couple of short boards for kiting and surf all sitting over a Hiace commuter van way up high. Looks a great solution. Also the clothes washing bag and the rear tail gate ‘hold it open’ thing. Where’d you get that? Can’t find a Hiace one online yet. Might try making one. great philosophy all round for your setup.
Awesome cheers Andrew glad you got something out of the video! The boot open tool I got from this business - www.sscampervans.com/
The wash bag I got from here - thescrubba.com.au/products/scrubba-wash-bag
@@windsurfer Fantastic - thx again Paul. Look forward to seeing some kite surfing gear on your van soon ;)
@@cookersandbun haha might be waiting a while
Hi Paul, loved the video! I was hoping you could tell me where you got your bed frame from? I would love to wack one of those in my Hiace. Cheers buddy
Thanks Michael! Here's the link where I bought it. The European Queen fits the van perfect - www.thecomfortshop.com.au/forza
