      I’m the same! I’m planning a van build for myself and my dog and I have friends saying “what if I want to come see you on your travels?” - I’m like… errr get a hotel close by?? 🤣🤣 I only want a bed, a shower, large fridge freezer, toilet, kitchen/possibly small sitting area and solar and to be able to drive round Europe with my dog! Just need to find a van and a van conversion/builder - cause I can’t knock a nail in! 🤣😖🤪

    Well done on a fabulous build. As a mum of 5 I know how tricky it is (was) to make sure everyone has what's needed to travel - no you don't need 5 jumpers 😂. So much organisation and tetris moves but when I look back now after 15 years, these were the best times.❤. Enjoy your travels, more importantly, enjoy making memories. ❤❤

    I am seriously impressed with the layout and how well thought everything is, from the extra leg room for your son, to the bed divider, to your large bed that doubles as a lounge area for the whole family! How amazing that you are able to take family adventures and everyone has a safe place to sit while traveling, and a comfy bed at night.....and there's even a bathroom!

    Wow, when I was a kid this would have totally been a dream come true for holidays! Absolutely fantastic van and such a creative use of space.
    The only thing that I'd want to change especially as a teen/adult is that if there was any way at all to have made a pocket-door for the loo rather than just a curtain that would be amazing. But I totally appreciate that a) it probably wasn't doable, and b) the extent to which that kind of privacy is important varies enormously from one family to the next.
    Absolutely incredible van, love it! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

    People thinking this is ridiculous but I can tell you my husband was 1 of 10 kids,they were raised in a 2 room cabin. 3 and 4 to a regular size bed. They lived that way 24/7 until kids gradually left home. My husband was 17 before he had a room of his own. I think this is great. Families were closer back then.

    I would need to see this with all 7 people inside it to really see how it works. Those 4 seats look less comfortable than in an airplane. Where does everyone sit (presumably) to have meals? Or is this only used in good weather so you're outside? That top sleeping area for the littles is positively claustrophobia inducing. I live in a conversion van with 2 cats and people wonder at that. 😳😂

Not to mention the cooperation skills, patience & tolerance opportunities, also priceless, imho.
    My husband & I live & travel in a 21ft Vista Mini class C that's 7ft across at widest point, & somehow you seem to have more room =) We could pare down some more I suppose, yet w/just the two of us now, it's actually more than enough.

    Amazing! I love how you were able to fit so much in such a tiny space! Two questions though, why didn't you put the shower in the bathroom/toilet room? Cloth bags above a toilet is not ideal, even if there is no smell. And secondly, how do the kids get into their beds that are near the ceiling? Do you have a ladder somewhere or do you have to lift them up onto the beds?

    It's cool there are so many beds, but I assume this can't be a long term/full-time living space... But even so where do you put all of your clothing (clean and dirty) and other personal items? Do you use mostly disposable dining and silverware? I only ask because again, it doesn't seem like there is a huge storage area. I like it! Instead of a tent it's like a more sturdy camping situation and gives you some extra comforts you wouldn't necessarily have in a regular type tent and you can drive it places so it's easier to set up!

      Thanks for watching. We have a full plastic dining set we use and we have silverware in the drawer. We have storage for clothes and laundry under the bed in the garage. On the road we use an app called Park For Night so we know where all local washing machines are. 👍🏼

    Interesting set up how everybody fits. But, no food in the fridge or in the cabinets, no storage items in the storage pockets in the toilet area, I’d like to see how they actually use it unless they buy food every day? I don’t know, that part seemed a bit strange

    The only thing we didn't see was how you cook your food. You mentioned that on one trip you had a microwave along. Do you have a cooktop? Cook outdoors? We were amazed at how much storage you created and still had room for each of you to sleep comfortably! 😊 It took a lot of planning to accomplish that.

      Thanks for watching. A Step van would be a great choice, we also looked into a Luton van which is similar, but due to the fact you can’t mount rear seats in them as the chassis isn’t a full metal body. So these wouldn’t work for us. 👍🏼

    cool van build. seems cramped yes you make it work but its still cramped. For such a busy van i would want to hinge half the bed so it can tilt and push back becoming a sofa. Then again if i had five kids i would convert a coach or a double decker bus or a box truck and have an upstairs
