While we see a lot of positive things about vanlife here at Tiny House Talk, it was refreshing to hear some raw truth from vanlifer, Rania, who hit the road with her dog Sequoia in “Egg,” their Transit van conversion.
She didn’t enjoy those first weeks of vanlife. She was scared and felt like she’d made a huge mistake — being on her own and in such a small space felt claustrophobic. But her story has a happy ending. After sticking it out and learning how to make her van space work for her, she has spent a year in her van successfully!
Wait until you see her van’s sleek black interior with fun vintage pops of color. Thanks Tiny Home Tours for the interview!

This is the story of DualEX and how he has recently transformed this old RV into his very own high-tech tiny house so that he can move to upstate New York with a friend.
Remember when he built out a $3500 van-based tiny house? That was cool! Now you can see how he has transformed this old travel trailer into a beautiful and affordable new living space for himself. How awesome is that?

Eric has been working since he was 16 years old, and got to the point where he was wondering what he was really doing with his life. At 32, he wanted to do more than just work, so he decided to outfit a van a travel from Alaska to Argentina on a journey of a lifetime!
He was very concerned with having a home-y feel to his van, and as you’ll see in the Tiny Home Tours video below, he succeeded! It looks like a sweet farmhouse — and there is a swing! I am in love with his sweet home.

Here’s a fun spot to unwind for a weekend getaway! This adorable A-frame looks like it was based on some of Deek’s A-Frame plans, and the result is a great off-grid glamping cabin.
It sits on a little farmette where there are ducks and chickens and fresh strawberries. The nearby water and overgrown foliage provide a home for local wildlife.
Take a look at it below! I want to build one now.

When this couple first met, they jumped into travelling and ended up eloping! But when a baby came, they settled back into standard “American” life with their three-car garage and large home.
The coming of the pandemic gave them the “go-ahead” to chase their nomadic dreams once again. They felt like it was finally ok to homeschool and start traveling with their kids in tow. So they rented out their home, bought a partially-finished bus, and made the space their own!

Meet this awesome couple who took inspiration from marine set-ups to create a functional Sprinter van home. Unlike many vans we’ve seen, they put the kitchen along the cab of the van, creating a solid divider between the driving and living space.
That design choice gave them room to include a full banquette, a breezeway and a permanent bed setup. They chose a simple garage without much shelving so they could maximize all their space, and they have a huge battery bank for their solar power.
