Caleb was in college when he realized college wasn’t for him, and he needed a new direction. A friend urged him to just go for something, so he converted the back of his Subaru and started traveling. Eventually, he upgraded to his DIY Astro Van which he lived in for another year.
The video below shows off his nice low-top van conversion, complete with a little kitchen and fixed bed set-up. He’s now traveling via bicycle, with all his camping gear strapped on! Now *that’s* minimalism.

Seth was already converting a rig when he met Christy, but when they got married, she wasn’t interested in living in a vehicle. Eventually, however, she warmed up to the idea, and they ended up converting an ambulance together, so they could see more of the United States.
While they removed the name “ambulance” from the outside, it still mostly looks like an emergency vehicle to keep them pretty stealthy. They have a hidden AC unit, a convertible bed, and a shower which they use all the time! Enjoy their video tour below.
