Description

Our van conversion will be finished in just three months! Sean and I sat down to answer some commonly asked questions about our choice to live in a van full-time along with a few build details.


We go over:



  • Why do we want to pursue van life in the first place?

  • Why go through a conversion company for our build insteading of converting a van ourselves?

  • Why buy our house a year and a half ago, and why sell it now?

  • Why a Promaster?

  • How is the van temperature controlled?

  • How else have we set the van up with Scout in mind?

  • Why include a shower?

  • How does internet work?

  • What are we most looking forward to?

  • What are we most nervous about?
