Chantal (from the Netherlands) and Lukas (from Switzerland) were dating long-distance and tired of being apart but didn’t know where to settle down. So they decided to ignore the question, convert an Opel Movano bus, and travel Europe! In the past two years, they’ve visited 24 countries and have big dreams to see more of the world from their van.
They call themselves a “traveling circus” with their ginger cat Ollie and newly adopted rescue dog Lefka along for the ride. Ollie rules the roost, but Lefka is finding a happy spot inside their little van. Enjoy their tour below and check out their van dreams at the end of the post!

Lindsey grew up as a farm kid and loved the outdoors, so it’s no surprise that after living an everyday young professional life in Chicago and NYC, she decided to simplify and live on the road. A few years in, she started looking for a better rig and came across the Overland Explorer X10 EarthRoamer in its prototype stage.
This amazing 4×4 truck camper features extensive solar power, a kitchenette, a bathroom, and a nearly queen-sized bed in the back. It also has a surprising amount of storage, which is perfect for Lindsey’s impressive shoe collection. She’s been on the road for 6.5 years and has no plans to stop anytime soon.

Michael is an amazing man who has spent the last 30 years building an incredible treehouse resort on his acerage in Oregon. He started with a cabin and horseback-riding, but no one was interested. When he rebuilt the treehouse he had made for his children, however, people started to take interest!
And since then he has added treehouse after treehouse, a number of bathhouses for the homes without plumbing, and an extensive system of suspension bridges. There are even several ziplining courses! Enjoy a tour of the resort below.

Dawn adopted the blind and toothless Daphne when Daphne was four years old. Their time together inspired Dawn to write a children’s book series about the adventures of a blind dog. Living in a van was a way for Daphne and Dawn to tour the country and promote the book. Shortly after their tour began, however, Daphne died suddenly.
While heartbreaking, Dawn opened her heart and van to another blind dog, Maxwell. She and Maxwell are continuing the journey she began with Daphne! The van is specially designed to be dog-friendly, and particularly blind dog friendly. Enjoy the tour of her unique space below!

Shirley and A.W. wanted to do something new during retirement, so they bought a bus and built out a skoolie! Their only regret? That they didn’t do it sooner!
They have a neat L-shaped couch in the back of the bus which becomes their queen-sized bed at night, and another couch that turns into a twin for any guests. They are taking long trips when they can and staying close to home for longer stints to visit their new grandbabies.

Ryan has always loved outdoor activities and wanted a lifestyle that would allow him to do more of what he loved. Van life was the answer. But instead of rushing into a conversion right away, Ryan took his time, carefully planning out every detail of his future home on wheels, and spent a solid 13 months converting it.
You can see his care and dedication when you watch his tour. He has some great upgrades, like an induction cooktop, closet for hanging clothes, and a full bathroom with a self-cleaning door, Nature’s Head composting toilet, and even a clothesline for muddy stuff. But his pride and joy is his epic garage, which fits his mountain bike and all his adventure gear in a streamlined and organized fashion.
