Here’s another incredible bespoke camper conversion from Vanpuravida in the UK, called “Henry.” The van uses its Himalayas layout, which includes a dinette that turns into an L-shaped couch, and a fixed queen-sized bed. There’s even a “spacious” van bathroom with a shower and composting toilet at the front of the build.

When you first walk in, you’ll find a little bench/shoe storage before running into the bathroom. The kitchen has both a two-burner cooktop and an oven upgrade, plus the most gorgeous backsplash! This conversion layout starts at £39,990 (~$49,860) sans the cost of the van base.

Like so many others, Nigel and Sue had travel plans for 2020 that were upended by lockdowns — and they shifted their focus to a van conversion! With no prior building experience, they learned how to do everything via YouTube and trial and error. But you’d really never know they were novices based on the final result!

We got to interview Sue about what made them go tiny, what they love about it, and what’s a struggle. Enjoy the tour of their DIY build and their story below. Then be sure to subscribe to their YouTube channel for updates on their awesome Australian tour.

Looking for a professionally built campervan without the six-figure price tag? Safe + Sonder Vans created their Simply Sonder line specifically for people who want quality craftsmanship but need a more accessible entry point into van life.

These budget-friendly van builds are designed to make campervan life achievable for more people. While there’s one core layout available, you can customize colors, finishes, and upgrades to match your style and needs. The best part? You can use their online configurator to build out your own van and see exactly what each option costs.

This is a great option for folks who aren’t ready for a full DIY build but can’t afford the $100K+ custom conversions that dominate the market.

Here’s a lovely van conversion with a boho-chic aesthetic and a bathroom with a hot shower and dry-flush toilet (no tanks!). It’s built out of a 2019 Ram Promaster and has been used as a rental van most recently, but could easily become your full-time home.

The van has a dinette in the back that converts to a queen-sized bed at night, and there’s a large projector so you can watch movies at night. The kitchen is split with the sink on one side and the burners and chest refrigerator on the other side. It’s for sale in Pasadena, California for $96,000.

After a decade of chef work in kitchens with long hours, Nikki met her now-wife who was traveling the world internationally. Burnt out and inspired by her freedom, Nikki decided to leave that life behind and join her wife in a year-long van conversion! They put nearly 80,000 miles on the van in four years.

About a year ago, the couple decided to get separate rigs and still caravan together, that way they could enjoy exploring together but have a little more personal space. Nikki has made some adjustments to the cozy cabin-like van she calls home, including adding an oven, so she can bake pizza. Enjoy the tour of her awesome space below!
