Family of 4’s South African Van Life

Matt, Amy, and their two young children live full-time in their van conversion, which they built themselves in South Africa. The van has an innovative bed set-up in the back, which allows all four of them to get some shut-eye!

The kitchen occupies a large portion of the van, allowing the family to cook great meals while on the road. They also have a living room in the front that converts into a dinette and seats the children for travel. You’re going to love this tour!

Highlights

  • Matt and Amy built out this incredible van in South Africa for their family of four to travel in.
  • The back of the van has an ingenious bed setup, with the kids’ smaller bunks hanging above mom and dad’s. They can fold up, and the bed becomes more of a couch for hanging out.
  • When the back doors are open, the bed can fold out into a King-sized bed! They even have a tent system that covers the bed when the back doors are open.
  • They have an emergency toilet under the bench and an outdoor shower set-up.
  • The couple runs a graphic design company while on the road and has an office set up in the living room to work.
