Roman & Ioana are based in Switzerland, and they love the freedom that living and working on the road provides them. They purchased a 1990 Volkswagen van that had been converted and did some major renovations to make it work for modern full-time vanlife.

They tow along a storage trailer which allows them to keep all their gear and bikes safely stored away and keeps the van itself more open. The fiberglass roof lets them have a bed that’s out of the way from the living area, and they added a bathroom to the back of the van. We had the opportunity to interview them, and you can read their story below!

This beautiful A-frame tiny house is 252 square feet, but its extra tall ceilings make it look taller and skinnier than it truly is on the inside. The house sits in the Desert of Maine Campground, located near sprawling sand dunes smack-dab in the middle of the Maine forest — a natural leftover of the last ice age!

The simple cabin has a queen-sized bed, and two twin mattresses that can be pulled out at night for kids. A half-bath sits behind the bed, and there’s a little kitchen area with a retro mini-fridge, kettle, and Keurig. Outside the A-frame, you’ll find a small fire pit with Adirondack chairs, and a picnic table for meals. What do you think of this cute space?

Josh loves to cook, and his previous two van conversions didn’t have the space he needed to make amazing dishes on the road. So in his latest van, Boondocker 3.0, he made sure to have double countertops and a super cool “speakeasy” cabinet that rises from behind his pop-up shower.

His van conversion is built to keep him out of campgrounds and in nature, so it comes equipped with plenty of solar power to sustain his needs. He chose to close off the cab but included a super narrow door so he could access it if he needed to. His bed is fixed, and there’s a composting toilet under the bench that feeds to a tank. What do you think of Josh’s van?

Greg and Maria purchased this van intending to convert it, but Greg almost resold it because he was so overwhelmed by what a conversion would entail! Thankfully, a friend of his encouraged him not to give up, and the results of sticking to it are incredible! This family-friendly van conversion has safe seating for the four of them, and a Lagun table and swivel chairs so they can sit and eat together.

They chose to have a fixed bed in the back of the van for mom and dad, and their boys sleep in a tent since they only use the van for vacations and weekends away. Across from their kitchen, they included a bathroom with a shower stall and removable toilet. They can get more than five minutes of hot water! Let us know which feature of this van you love the most.
