Tiff really wanted to get into vanlife, but it took a while to convince Eddy into it. Eventually, they agreed on the plan and spent a year converting their van with zero prior experience. They love that now they know how to fix anything that goes wrong with the rig.
While there are definitely some things about their conversion they would change, they’re proud of their hidden bathroom and extending bed. Their solar system is something to brag about too! So far they’ve only ever used shore power once. Check it out below.

When Lisa was paralyzed at 14, it took a long time for her to find herself doing what she loved again — going outdoors! But eventually, she was able to play basketball at the Paralympian level and even won 6 gold medals during her tenure. A shoulder injury, however, left her lost again and in a lot of pain. Once recovered, she turned to travel.
What started out as a short trip in the back of her car transformed into this amazing van conversion complete with a wheelchair lift, a motorized seat that lifts her to her bed height, and enough aisle room to turn her wheelchair around. Everything inside has been designed accessible so Lisa can travel by herself. You’re going to love the video tour!

Jerome and Meli have spent years traveling the world together. First, they met at the Olympics in Russia, then traveled around Europe and North Africa. They came to North America for what was going to be a one-year adventure and ended up spending three years exploring Canada, the US, and now Baja!
Their DIY motorhome is from 1985, but you’d never know based on the renovated interior. There’s a giant lounge area that doubles as their dinette, a functional kitchen for all their cooking exploits, and a perfect cozy bed over the cab.

Channing is such an inspiration! Not only is she an elite athlete as Team USA Paralympian Kayaker, she doesn’t let anything stand in her way. She was tired of plane trips and missing out on the places she traveled with her team, so she decided to build out her own wheelchair-friendly truck camper, so she could travel on her own time, save money, and see what she wanted to see!
Her truck has hand controls, she rigged up a bathroom system that works for her, and she carries her motorized off-roading trike on a pull-away bar on the back of the rig. Inside she has a couch pad, a “loft” bedroom, and all she needs to make food. What an awesome woman!

This is probably the first time we’ve seen an archway inside a van conversion, and Bohdivan does it well! They use lime paint to create a plaster-style texture all around an arched feature wall that separates the living/kitchen area from the bedroom. The result is truly stunning!
This van is brimming with features, from the Victron Components with touchscreen to the huge slide out drawer in the garage, to the mouth-blown sconce. The van is currently for sale!

When Kels and Jay first went tiny, they converted a large bus into an awesome tiny house. Kels said that was largely for her — she couldn’t imagine downsizing any further into a van. But after two years of #buslife, she realized she didn’t need that much! So they sold the bus and converted a Ford Transit into an awesome van house.
Unlike many vans, theirs includes a wet bath and an oven! They created a cool “bed desk” with a gaming chair so they can edit all the videos they post on YouTube or that they take for Jenna of Tiny House Giant Journey. When they aren’t filming, they make money helping others convert their buses/vans into tiny homes. Let me know what you think in the comments!

D knows what she loves and is so unapologetically *her,* and you can see that all the way through her shuttle bus conversion. She actually built and owns her own tiny house, but found it was too difficult to tow around. So she used the leftover materials from her THOW build, along with other reclaimed items, to create a girly French-country-inspired mobile home she can take anywhere.
D loves her extensive, eclectic wardrobe, so she made sure to have room for it on the bus. She also brought along her entire plant collection, painted an adorable cow print soaking tub, and made sure her Squishmallows had a home in her twin-sized bed. She’s also a pole dancer, so she made a home for her pole inside the bus under her bed. Enjoy the tour below!
