Daniel served in Vietnam and Thailand and got married, had children, raised them, and retired. Just after retiring, he lost his wife to cancer. He felt completely lost and ended up hiking the Camino de Santiago Trail in Spain, where he came to realize how little he needed to live and feel content — so he found a Mitsubishi Fuso 4×4 and made it into a home on wheels!
This awesome overlander is ready for just about anything. It has tons of storage that slide out, his fridge slides outside or can be accessed indoors, and he put his tool chest pantry on a swivel, so it’s easily accessible. Both his side walls open up and turn into awnings for when he really wants to enjoy the weather. What do you think?

First, I am sorry for your loss. Not every one finds something or some one else to love after such a loss, but fortunately you have done so with your cool overlander and hiking. Best to you, and drive safely!!
Cool! Love the tool box idea! Also love that the sides go up for instant shade and breezes. Sorry for your situation, but glad you’re able to find some joy in traveling. Nice rig 👍
Thanks for sharing.
My condolences for the loss of your wife.
I love your ingenuity on the moveable pieces and fitting a rocker in!
