So now that you're here, WHO ARE WE?
We're Ben and Liv, the new kids on block with Vanlife, from the Gold Coast, Australia. Ever had a crazy dream? We made ours a reality when we packed 4 bags filled with everything we owned and moved to Canada to spend two years on the road, living out of our self converted, GMC Savannah 2500. Subscribe for content on what its like as a couple to live in a short van full time, plus advice to fellow explorers on how to buy, and build when living in a new country.
We hope our channel inspires you to take a risk like we did and remember that life's short, you just gotta get out and live it!

Love Ben and Liv xo

GMC Savana | 7 Day Van Build | Part 2
Welcome back!
For part 2 of our van build series you will see us make a start on our custom built over head cabinets, kitchen cabinets as well as our bed frame.
We were kindly offered this space by a friend of a friend who let us use any tools and materials we needed to make our vision for our cabinets come to life! As our van is a low roof van, correct measurements and a custom build was essential. If you have any questions about our build please comment below!
SUBSCRIBE for more content on our van conversion as well as upcoming videos on living full time in our GMC Savana.
Enjoy!
Love Ben and Liv

GMC Savana | 7 Day Van Build | Part 1
มุมมอง 60K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Hi, We're Ben and Liv and on July 18th 2019, we packed all of our belongings into 4 bags to catch a one way flight to the other side of the world. Why, you ask? Let us take you back to a crazy conversation we had a few months back when we both decided we wanted to live out our dream of the nomadic lifestyle that is Vanlife. No rent, no utilities due every month...just the simplicity of life on ...
make sure you "touch up" paint all bare metal after cutting the roof.
Oh no! No part 3!! Enjoyed the content you two.
What happen to yaw dont see but two videos.
I'm thinking of buying a 2013 chevy express van with awd. What's the length of the van your building ur camper out of
I want a partner who gets this excited about van life! Haha
Nice and beautiful
Damn you You Tubers with this ANOYING ASS MUSIC!!!!!!
I had the same white van for years... Had to sell her due to a divorce... But Bertha was the best vehicle I had... She moved like a sport car ( Not speeding of course), reliable. I used Amsoil synthetic oil from the day I bought her brand new... I had a motorcycle dealership and she was the shop van but she went home with me every day... I put on her over 270k and never missed a beat. Oil changes was religion... These vans are great. As I am looking at yours I get the itch to purchase another Bertha!!!!
Super functional AC setup! 👍🏼
That’s a wonderful camel toe my dear. I gotta hand it to ya mate. Good job 👍
You'll hate it if you over do it guys
Heard cork board is easy , lighter and a good heat retaining material. Also safety gear , and taping on frames when cutting.!!
love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩❤❤
Van life! ahaha loved the part towards the end where shes saying she hates insulation and then you showed the mess in the van. Thats me as well, Im on a slow build and i carry tool in the van "just in case"
Ceiling stain perfect choice. Glad I watched this video. Thumbs up!!!!!!!
Did they broke up after part 2 or what ? where is part 3 ?
Really wish you would have done more videos. You two are great together. Kinda bummed me out.
How much was this van? I’m really wanting to get one of this style to convert . I’m having trouble finding something a little cheaper and reliable lol
I hope that fiberglass insulation in the ribs does not hold moisture and end up full of mildew. That couldn’t up being a really bad scene especially in a humid climate. I’ve also heard it causes a respiratory health risks in vans as it put particulates in the air
part 3 never released :(
I just stumbled on a 2008 GMC Savana with a lot of miles but it’s only 3400 so I think I might have to just dive in even if it’s temporary. Wanna test drive it but I’m excited.
Guess they broke up B4 part III
F? yeah F.s in the chat bois ( no hate no hate pls )
It's long or short savana?
I don’t want to hear your music that sucks very bad and very distracting while you spend way to much time talking about nothing like who cares about you signing papers Just tell us about your build.
Here for the part 3
Where’s the finished van? The first two videos so fun.
Hey what happened to y'all?
Me and my partner just bought a 2003 savanna with 140k for 2700 no issues and it came with a inverter it’s also extended. Can’t wait to make it a home
GM vans are the best ..i have a 2004 Chevy express 2500 4.8 liter ..bought it from a cable company ( well taken care of) ..recently replaced the 4 tires on it coz the newer tires it had when i bought it i had run tjem bald when i was rehabbing my house ..my express van has been a life saver ..and i intend to convert it to a home an pass it to my 2yr old daughter when she grows old enudf to drive
That's the first word I said is nice
Hi. Did u finance ur vehicle?
cant seem to find more than the two vidoes
Ah look at us we want to be like everybody else, freedom my ass
Good video! I'm buying a 2017 Savannah cargo tomorrow. 👍
Ditch the "music" it's annoying
отличная работа! молодцы!
How thick is ceiling ins. I put up 1/2” polyiso and thinking of adding another 1/2” before ceiling back up It’s a hitop gmc Savana
Dude😰. You just cut a hole in the roof of your new van. Too scary!
Did not watch all due to the production quality of your video. Hint do NOT have crap tunes at 3 times the volume of your voice track. It just says either you don't know what the hell your are doing so just I'll turn up the radio, or you have nothing to say and I'll DJ a bit. Study a bit of cinematography (film making) if you have plans to make any money from some tube channel! After turning up and down the volume a dozen times I was done after the first 10 minutes. You have the pretty click bait girl ~ now learn how to tell a story. Good luck!
I’m waiting 3
Hi 👋 Very good job 👍
omg your vidoes help so much. just purchased my 1st one. looking to travel with it this year! extremely durable! convenient too!
Did you get the van from dealers Many says it's not a good idea! 🤔🤔🤔
What happened? Where did you go? I would like to see the next part of your build. Anxious to see it to completion. What is the final outcome?
Great choice on the van,those usually last over 300K miles with good care,I have a 97 express and still drives like a dream,currently making it comfy for full time living in it and travel Canada and US for the next forever.
how amazing! I recently bought a 05 Express with the 6.0 it now has 170K miles. it also runs great
How to take the 100 mph limiter
Dunno why this doesnt have a zillion views, very helpful and well produced
Who’s beat though!?
