If you’ve been following Tiny House Talk for any amount of time, you’ve probably seen the handiwork of videographer Travis Cosentino (@travis_travels on Instagram) — he does the filming for Tiny Home Tours, which we show you quite frequently.
But did you know he’s a van-dweller? He’s been living in his stealthy conversion now for about a year, and only spent $5,500 on the build, most of which went to mechanical repairs. He loves meeting like-minded people and sharing their stories, plus he gets to travel all around the country as he interviews.
Travis’ home is wonderfully simple, but he did manage to fit a sneaky toilet into this itty bitty build! Watch the video tour to learn more.

So COOL I can’t wait till I can do this
Absolutely!
He must be a short guy. My height doesn’t fit into a van across driving direction.
And having my own shower is a must for me.
Working from bed long term isn’t great for blood circulation because us humans aren’t ‘designed’for that.
