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!

The last time we checked in with Holly and Matt, they were about 3 months into an amazing van conversion for their family of 4. While the interior was coming together, they’d still be working for another 6 months before they moved in and hit the road. Incredibly, they completed the entire build for just £15.5K (~$19.6K USD) — and it’s so beautiful.
Now they’ve been on the road for nearly a year, and they’re loving vanlife! Be sure to read our interview with them below and find out how they all sleep, what their plans are for the future, and about their epic solar set-up.

While we love showing off budget builds and how creative people can be with just a little bit of money and a lot of heart, sometimes it’s fun to see what tiny can look like when you aren’t worried about the bank account. This luxury rig from Off Highway Van is their newest design called the “Davey Jackson.” It comes on both a 144 or 170-inch wheelbase, depending on how much room you want.
Designed to go just about anywhere, these rigs have all the best off-grid specs and incredible bells and whistles for nomadic life. And the 170 even allows for a pop-up shower stall or a built-in wardrobe. You can sleep up to 5 people in this rig, with the folding bench seats and even a swivel seat conversion. It starts at $199,999. Check it out below!

Joey’s story isn’t one you’d expect — he nailed the “dream job” of working in mechanical and biomedical engineering for the FBI in Washington, D.C. — and then realized it wasn’t for him! He got a different job working as a software engineer that ended up going remote in 2020 — and before he knew it, Joey was buying and converting a van.
He’s lived in the van you’ll see below for three years on and off. In the “off” time, he’s been backpacking around the world, living even more simply than he does in his rig. He designed it to stand up to all kinds of weather, and just wait until you see the neat way he included a shower, closet, and pantry into his home on wheels.

JK and Kim live part-time in a Ford Transit van which they purchased second-hand and are actually the third owners of. Despite the van being built out when they first got it, they’ve gone through about 4 layout iterations to get it to the point it is today — and that’s come at the pricetag of nearly $100,000.
But the couple don’t regret the cost, because they love escaping the city and enjoying the outdoors. Most of their travel is spent on weekends away within only an hour and two from their home, but they have taken awesome longer trips as well. While they aren’t planning on going full-time just yet, they love the freedom that weekend tiny living offers them.

While plenty of people build their campervans, not everyone has that initial build turn into an incredible business that has now converted 40 different mobile spaces into homes on wheels! But that’s the story of Gina and Matty, who own and operate Byron Bay Van Fitouts in Australia.
We got the chance to interview them about their story, their plans for the future, and this awesome Mercedes Sprinter 2017 MWB (medium-wheelbase) that they recently completed and are selling. Get all the details below!

Annie is an incredible, custom-built van conversion by Safe + Sonder Vans. It has a layout I’ve never seen in a van conversion, with an L-shaped kitchen that divides the bedroom from the rest of the home.
This layout allows for oodles of counter space and a bench seat that can double as a chaise lounge. Plus, the herringbone design on the butcher block counters is dazzling! You’ll love the sneaky trash can storage in the corner of the kitchen as well. Let us know in the comments what you think of the Annie design.

Becca, Tyler, and their four children spend their weekends traveling to amazing spots for skiing, mountain biking, and hiking adventures. The family loves outdoor sports, and was looking for a way to make getting to great places easier and more convenient. They weren’t up for a DIY build, but they came across Vandoit and had the most incredible rig made up for them!
This van sleeps 6 and safely seats all 6 family members, with bench seats that can be removed when they arrive on-site to allow more space to walk around the van. They have a pop-up shower stall, outdoor kitchen, and a “toilet tent” they set up upon arrival. What do you think of their home on wheels?
