VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Amber lived the daily grind of school while living in a nice place in downtown Minneapolis. Even though she was meeting her goals, there was still something missing, and with this, she bought a backpack and took off to travel internationally. She decided to go tiny upon returning, leading her to her current van conversion!
She designed this 2006 Sprinter with a welcoming living space, installing front seats that swivel connecting to an open kitchen. The garage is spacious, holding outdoor gear and extra tools. This is her second van build, and it has an abundance of color, character and personal touches making this a sanctuary on wheels. Can you believe she built this in about three weeks from start to finish?!

I got a sink 3 yrs ago from a yard sale that is similar!!I am saving it for my Tiny Whatever🤞Love her van!!🪴
Cindy says " Beautiful!!! YOU did a Great job!!! I Love that sink!!! Thank you for the video!"
The most significant thing she said was that she had ticked off the list of things that we are apparently ‘expected‘ to do and then realised that she was not feeling like she was in the place she wanted to be in life. That’s when she started living her actual ‘own‘ life. Far too many of us think about what other people want us to do rather than living our own life.
Totally agree. As an almost 60 y.o., I'm going to say if one is expecting "things" or experiences or someone else in life to label you 'complete', one will be chasing that one's whole life. Joy comes from within, from a deeper place.
Ooo this is really cool. She did a great job giving it that home-y feel but it’s still incredibly functional & spacey. Also I love all the pieces. Great taste. Her story is inspiring too. I feel nowadays we’re really pushed into this idea of working & consuming constantly. I’m happy she was able to become free & content.
I like her. She's actually the best.
Really love that build, too!
I ❤️ your van/tiny. It is so nice. Your dog is great. Your personal style is perfect. I hope your jewelry business goes well. I really enjoyed the design. Thank you for sharing.
The mandalas flow around it all. Will be watching for you. Great woman you: adventurer, Artist 🎨, earthmother, confident but so real. Beautiful.
We In The south paint our porch ceilings blue to keep spiders and carpenter bees from making a home there. It works.
Very nice. Especially the blue ceiling.
Mankato says Minneapolis is living the dream. You've created your beautiful utopia. Your very creative and I really like what you've done with your home. Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you so much!! Mankato is my hometown 🙂
Great video. This lady has the right idea. 👍❤
Great ideas. Very much a home feel to this build. It says so much about the woman of the house and her personal mantra. Cheers from Canader eh!
As a Southern girl…heck yeah for the haunt blue ceiling! ❤️
Love love love it! My kind of style! I wanted to paint my ceiling blue … but ended up white. Cool build!
Very beautiful design 😍
This is a beautiful van build!! I ❤ her blue ceiling the most also!!
Love your van. It has so much personality:)
Ahh i live at the bottom of the superstition mountains so nice to see content from where you are
This really looks like a home. Impressive.. comfortable.. personal.....👍👍
I also have a hand painted sink that I have been considering putting in my van but was worried about it breaking. Thank you for showing me it will work.
Beautiful van built in less than a month. Amazing, I loved the gorgeous roof. I’ve heard that blue ceilings on porches discourages wasps and similar insects from building nests. Thanks for sharing your lovely home.
This is an amazing tiny home. Such beautiful and fun colors, textures, and patterns. Your traveling companion is adorable! Cattle dogs are the very best!
Love the sink so cool.
I am considering doing this since I'm an empty nester!
Very cool lady and I really like her van. Thanks for sharing.
Love her van! The plants are a nice touch. Love the sink and then extra countertop. Love her jewelry. Nice toilet.
Nice window! Great storage above.
Very cool. I like how your Swivel seats make it great as the common area leaving a separate dedicated fixed bed/comfort zone. I want to watch again. Happy trails to you.
I camped at this same spot last year in my Rv! One of the coolest area..
Loved your video. Greetings from Australia and safe travels.
Like a warm cabin. Vey cozy
Love your van and I will check out your jewelry because I love hand made jewelry. You have done an amazing jog with your build. Looks very comfy and homey.
This build is really cool 🙂

Great build, I need a proper 🚿🚽.
😀😀❣❣❣❣❣❣
It’s beautiful but be careful about the copper near your drinking water 💦 Heavy metals go to the brain and can cause harm.
Good point. A travel Berkey could filter that out I think.
Nicely done. Just curious, what seeds did you grow and did you pass the test.🙂
I did pass the lab!! They were some simple rapid growing plants for a biology test ☺️
Is ur dog an American dingo she /he looks exactly like my dog who is an American dingo she even howls which is common with this breed
I was excited to see this one give the name Electric Van. I didn't see anything electric about it other than the regular essentials. Did I miss something?
It says eclectic not electric.
@@elizabethcampbell9033 LOL I can't read.
Wonder how the gas prices are affecting van lifers.
Typically these van life hippies are all about liberal agenda… “climate change”, wet dreams of wind energy, electric vehicles, etc. so they are getting what they wanted.
@@Cookiecrumbles93 just wow. So you don’t believe in climate change, haven’t noticed the major shift all companies are making to solar/electric and you have no clue what’s going on in the vanlife community? Everyone, We should all listen to this guy he seems so smart!!!
@@leftyatlarge9579 I believe the climate changes in ol’joe’s pants when children walk in the room.
Tour motor home car beautiful
It's those toilets that turn me off to this. I can't imagine how bad that van smells.
R u ever afraid on your own only ask cause my daughter wants to to it please respond
I don’t live in a van but hubby and I considered it early in our marriage. We discussed safety and things like having a dog, alarms, phone charged and easy access to 911 calling quickly were things we talked about. Traveling with others would be smart for safety as well as help if any break downs etc. Maybe try a long road trip in a rented rv or something to give it a try before making it permanent. Try researching van life and nomad life for more safety tips and things. It seems like it could be a lot of fun and amazing experiences and see a lot of places but also stressful and maybe hard at times as well. Maturity level and ability to handle crisis and stress I think will also make a difference on the experience had. Just my opinions and thoughts. As a mama I would be so nervous if my son wanted to do this but also I know someday I have to let him do his thing. New appreciation for the gray hairs I gave my folks. Hope you and your daughter figure it out together amicably.
2 immediate issues for a female. 1. Hygiene concerns. 2. Safety.
2 immediate issues with you: 1. Misogynistic 2. My dog would literally eat you
@@amberjoowens 2 immediate issues for you:
1. Neil Aspinall gave us facts, why then is he misogynistic?
2. Why be butthurt? Have you and your dog been harmed and is your dog carnivorous?
You have insulted this beautiful human on a few posts now implying she is unhygienic and lacking somehow. It’s not nice.. it’s rude and she is kind enough to invite us into her home. I would be embarrassed if I acted like that as a guest. What protection or security she uses is not your business either. Why post that info out for potential creeps to see. Yes there are definitely potential creeps out there. I’m looking at you guys overly concerned with her personal habits beyond how she set up her van. God created all kinds of people so all I will say in closing is you really miss the purpose of the visit. It’s a lovely and very well set up van build and I enjoyed seeing it. Love the little plants especially.
I think Neil and Hanz just found a love connection.
@@amberjoowens What part of my comment is not relevant Amber and what part is misogynistic exactly?
I admire her skill, jewel-making and her independence... but my impression is that she's one not into self-hygiene. Once a week waste disposal and no shower, hippie style with tattoos and nose piercing plus a hairy armpit. With a big dog for a companion. Just my opinion.
Yes I would want a shower in the van.
There is absolutely nothing _wrong_ with anything you listed.. The only thing _wrong_ is that society told you those things are wrong. She just thinks for herself and doesn't care what others think which is freeing because you know, judgmental people ;)
Also I’m confused what my body hair has to do with my hygiene 😂
Hanz do you shave your pits? I’ll wait for your answer before I decide how to hate on you.
@@amberjoowens Ma'am, your body hair has a lot to do with your hygiene specially the underarm hair, for females it's part of grooming and etiquette to remove armpit hairs. It's unsightly as well as the cause of body odor. Washing/bathing once a week aggravates the situation. Men do not shave because they reason that it's part of their masculinity but there is no need for women to show any masculinity but rather to show beauty and womanliness and not a beastly armpit. What's the point of keeping them anyway when we were given brains on how to care for our body.
First, it's unsightly and scary, moreso for women. It's either you are lazy when it comes to hygiene or you just have the tribal mentality.
Second, it's socially unethical and if you love wearing tank tops and sleeveless shirts, you cannot hide the fact that you don't shave/clean your underarm.
Last, Hey we're in year 2022, armpit hair laser removal is everywhere, why not try it if you are too lazy to shave your armpits.
According to study:
Armpit hair can influence underarm odor. Researchers found that the absence of hair optimizes cleansing and makes one’s daily hygiene more effective in reducing body odor.
The sweat glands, including those under your arms, produce sweat that mixes with bacteria, causing the telltale unpleasant scent of body odor. Having hair under your arms can make you feel warmer, which can cause more sweat.
There's also the fact that hair is porous, so it traps odors and lets them hang around for far longer than they otherwise would.
I know I’m lame, but the hairy armpits don’t allow me to concentrate on what she’s saying.
I didn't notice the blue ceiling because when I look up it's a different color that I see, it's black... the black hair armpit when she lifts her arm to point something up. I'm lame as well.
You are both lame alright.
