Not sure if you have already heard, but Tom Green, the famous comedian, has joined van life in 2020 with a Rocinante Boho Van, which is a Ram ProMaster 2500 high roof 159″ van converted into a camper by Boho Camper Vans out of Tempe, Arizona who we included them in our list of van builders, if you want to check that out later too.

What’s unique about this van conversion versus many others is that this one is designed to serve as a recording studio for Tom Green, where he creates music, podcasts, and other productions. With the van, he’s able to safely travel and explore, even during our current times, he’s even recently made it to Texas and has appeared as a guest on the Joe Rogan Experience, where he tells all about his new van life.

The Fitz Roy THOW by Fox Cabins NZ is roughly divided into thirds — one third for the kitchen and bathroom, one for the living space, and a final one for a downstairs bedroom.

I think this design would be perfect for an in-law suite with its one floor concept and simple design. Add some shelving for storage, and you have a happy home!

You can get in touch with the builder (they only build in New Zealand) here.

Solid hardwood flooring, five skylights, wool insulation and stunning non-toxic paint and stain: This version of the Loft Edition model by Mint Tiny Homes has all the nicest of finishes.

A mini-split system keeps it warm or cool, while the bathroom includes both a large tiled walk-in shower and a soaking tub — and a separate laundry room with a washer/dryer combo. For sleeping, there’s both a stair-accessible loft with an artsy divider and a secondary loft with ladder access.

Finally, you get a spacious living area with plenty of room for a comfortable couch and even a chair or two. To learn more about getting your own Loft Edition, contact the builder here.

I’ve seen a lot of A-frames with a classic cabin feel or even a Nordic overhaul, but this gorgeous A-frame renovation is filled with mid-century modern charm and a totally unique loft set-up.

When you walk in you’ll find yourself in the large open living area, complete with a white fireplace and modern sectional sofa. It blends effortlessly into the kitchen, where you’ll find charcoal grey cabinets with a subway tile backsplash. There’s also a bedroom and full bathroom on the first floor.

The loft is something completely new, with a closed-off living space that doubles as a second bedroom, and a queen bedroom in the apex of the A-frame closed off with barn doors. There’s also another full bathroom. Love the decor? Jennifer, who renovated the a-frame with her partner, compiled a list with links here. Book your stay in this fantastic spot on Airbnb.

Treehouses are magical, but how about a treehouse overlooking a Fjord in Norway? This spectacular modern wonder has all the amenities you’ll need for a vacation stay, and views that will make you never want to leave!

The building is in fact built around one single tree (safely, so the tree can keep growing!) and includes a shower, flushing toilet and kitchenette.

And best of all, the builders of the Woodnest used non-toxic and sustainable products to create their dwelling, so you can feel good about staying here! Book your vacation (well, when it’s safe to do so…) here.

Once again, here’s a family with small kids taking advantage of the skoolie lifestyle! The Stone family is homeschooling in their DIY rig, called the “Green Bean,” which they spent about $15,000 making into their home on wheels.

The couple did all the work themselves, saving a lot of money in the process. They’ve been on the road for a couple months now, chasing the coastline and searching for warmer weather. Because the home is off-grid, their month-to-month expenses really only include the cost of fuel and the occasional campsite (they boondock most of the time).

Their girls, Pepper and Violet, have awesome bunks near the back of the bus with climbing stones, and plenty of room for toys under their dinette. Watch the full tour from Tiny Home Tours below!

Something tells me Kimberly is the kind of teacher we all wished we had growing up! This amazing woman lives with her cat and dog in her DIY Ford E-350 conversion. The former shuttle bus has everything she needs, including a very original shower set-up.

Because Kimberly (@she_van_igan) loves to cook, she made she to include a gas stove with as much counter space as she could muster. She even added a “china cabinet” shelf to display some beautiful plates she owns.

Her build is just another example that vanlife doesn’t have to be expensive to be functional. Hopefully her story inspires you to find the freedom you’re longing for. Watch the whole video from Tiny Home Tours below.
