    I love the kitchen/ couch area. It is the best layout I have seen for a van. It makes so much sense to have a couch area. Great design :)

      Definetly agree a van needs a couch area! My favourite part of the van is the way the kitchen has a hole so you can look out the front windscreen, Ive never seen that in a conversion before, people like to look out windows when doing kitchen work I think.

    Wow - that is amazing - we are starting our search for a Sprinter and enjoyed seeing how you built it out. A huge change in our plan was your use of a wall behind the drivers and the living area - pure genius and a great help in setting up sleeping for more than 2 people. I look forward to watching your videos as you travel and use all these great tools on the road. Be safe.

    Oh my, it's so much roomier than I realized. Love all the windows & airflow - so many vans seem stifling. The decor is beautifully balanced with color, texture storage & work surface. Well done. Thank you for the tour.

    After seeing a plethora of van builds, this has to be one of the best rig set ups I've seen on you-tube, albeit rather expensive (but worth it). It's also fantastic to see the extra effort put in for your moggie, and you can the contentedness.

    Hey Theo and Bee, What a fantastic job you have done. I love the fact that we built and kitted our vans out around the same time. And even though there are some similarities they are also so diverse and individually unique. An aspect of van lifers or van dwellers is being able to put your own personal touch into a space and call it home. Wish you all the best on your exciting travels. Rob

    Thank you for the long awaited van tour. I cant even name a favorite part of the van! I love everything you have done. I watched the entire van build last fall. I was appalled when you started cutting up the hutch from Theo's parents but you have made a beautiful kitchen from it and I am sure his family loves it too. Looking forward to your tour of the artic and am thrilled to see the Scandinavian countries you are visiting as I come from a third generation Swedish family and don't imagine I will ever get to visit there. Happy and safe travels to you. I love every video you have ever done. Cheers! I am raising a beer to you right now! LOL!

    Your use of color is my favorite thing about your beautiful van design. So many people seem to be afraid of color, so do everything in gray and white - so cold and boring! I love how you incorporated copper and wood into the design, making it feel so warm and welcoming. And your use of the old kitchen cabinet is brilliant! I love antique pieces like that and I've never seen one adapted to van life as well as you have done.
    I'm envious of you having a cat like Ginjey who has adapted so well to van life! In my experience that's pretty rare. Happy travels to the 3 of you!

    Wow just found your channel. Love the kitchen. Fyi.. u could save alot of space if you took the ketchup out of the fridge. It can be stored in any cupboard. I learned a couple yrs ago on the food network that ketchup, even though it says to refrigerate on the bottle, it absolutely doesn't need to be. It actually kills the lycopene thats good for you once it gets cold. So for a few yrs, we keep it in the pantry. My whole family does also now. Ketcup tastes better at room temperature also. Another note, restaurants that have bottles of ketcup and mustard on tables for customers, never put them in the frige either. There is so much vinegar in it, it dosen't go bad either. So it can be stored along long time with zero refrigeration. Anyway.. just a lil thing i learned that saves us. We do alot of living in our motorhome. (We have 4 kids so a ban isnt large enough). Love love love your kitchen. 😍

      Might depend where you are. In the UK they took all the preservatives out so its a natural product now so needs to be in the fridge. If you're in the US it may still have some nasties in that means its ok to sit outside the fridge for 10 years ;-))

    I've been subscribed to you for some time now from the USA. I really love how you designed your van build. Almost everyone that I've watch this far has their build cramped with so much stuff, that the isle quite narrow. I like how you have the heating going all the way to the rear of the storage space to keep. I really enjoy watching your travel vlogs and look forward to see more. Good travels to you and stay safe! :)

I'm actually considering doing something like this myself but I don't have any of the skills required to do this myself so I'd have to find one that's been already converted.

    Of all camper vans i have seen, i think yours is the homiest and most appealing. Not only that, you made really good use of the space. Thanx for the inspiration! Welcome to Scandinavia, if i see you are traveling southbound in Sweden ill make sure to invite you for a lunch or dinner! :)

      Angela Coleman - Are you British or North American? Because the definition of "homely" in the U.S. is "unattractive in appearance" and the British definition is "simple and comfortable, as is one's own home." In the U.S., homey means pleasantly comfortable and cozy, homelike.

    This is the most beautiful kitchen!!!! Gotta say this is the most amazing use of space I've ever seen in a van build. I love that you have that upper cabinet from his family! It just makes the kitchen have that element you were looking for from what you said. I plan to live on the road with my husband and pets in just a few more years. We are waiting for retirement. I hope mine is as pleasant and beautiful as yours! Great JOB!!!!! I can't help but wonder why you moved out of the narrowboat? That's one of my dreams to live on one. Thanks, Tammie
