Check out this diy job of converting an old rusted van into a tiny home on wheels. This was done in the UK. Mike Hudson quit his job, bought a ten year old van, moved home with his parents while he converted it and is now traveling all over Europe while living off grid in the van he turned into his traveling home. This is pretty neat to see. He even has a tracker page so we can see where he is currently and where all he has been since he started traveling. As of the 11th of this month he was in Berlin. He tells what all he put into the conversion to make it as home like as possible.
He lists all of the features in side it and provides pictures of each one. He converted this van in only 5 months.
Features of my converted camper van:
-
Compressor fridge/freezer (can select mode)
-
pressurised water system with 70L fresh tank
-
200W solar charging system with approx. 190Ah lead-calcium batteries

So now he is living his dream of traveling and living off grid in his tiny mobile home. He also sells a book on how he converted it to help him finance his travels and to help others who would like to convert their own van into a tiny mobile home. I thinks it is awesome.
