VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
It takes a remarkable couple to have traveled the world separately, met abroad, married after nine months, returned to the states, and fostered eight children while planning their tiny living adventure! After the kids were all placed into permanent homes, Lindsay and Chris hit the road and are now traveling in their 1999 Shasta Cheyenne Class C RV.
This major DIY project found them replacing most of the kitchen and redesigning the entire bathroom into a more modern and updated space. Between Lindsay's creative approach and Chris's handyman skills, these two took an old camper and transformed it into a gorgeous tiny home on wheels!

I’ve seen those style campers from the outside…never in a million years would I think the inside could look so beautiful and practical on the inside ❤️
Thanks so much! We're flattered!
Yeah I use to think the same thing I'm getting my first one next week. Decided I'm tired of paying $1000 a month just to rent when I can actually purchase a camper and hit the road. Sure I'll still have to pay for things but paying to own verse just to rent is a big difference to me.
You guys did a spectacular job with the camper. The woodwork makes everything pop, and your little touches and color choices are so chic. Live well and travel safely.
Thank you for the wonderful comment!
This is one of the most beautiful remodels I have ever seen. And I loved listening to your story of faith and growth. God bless you both.
Thanks so much! God said "Go" and we're still out here trying to figure out where next! =)
STUNNING! You guys really made this space a home. It looks roomy and cozy at the same time and I absolutely love the finishes and the pops of deep blues.
Thanks so much! It has truly been a home on the road for us!
The only thing I would change is I would a little privacy for the toilet. I'd definetly need a separate room for it, also to contain any smell.
We have a different kind of relationship, where Crohn's Disease invades pretty much every part of your "personal space" and as a married couple we are totally comfortable with whatever life brings. We certainly don't stand over each other and stare while the other does their business! But in any RV there's no escaping the bad side of a shared toilet, regardless of how private it may be or not be.
@@CalledToWandertotally relate as someone with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency. with a partner, they know it all at this point haha😅
I LOVE this so much!! You both have done such wonderful things from fostering to creating your traveling home to following your hearts to see more of the world!! Great life!!!
Thank you! We work incredibly hard to keep pursuing this life. But we don't know another life we'd want next to this! Thanks for watching and reaching out!
Hi there, where did you get the electric ignition for the stove. Sweet rig!
It’s just a button igniter from a bbq grill! Bought it on Amazon for around $10
I noticed the Folgers..not only do they make great small storage containers, I discovered they're awesome gold pans.. for exploring creeks n rivers..the ridges naturally separate the heavier materials..happy trails!
Great tip! Yes, Chris would stack our entire storage space with Folger's containers if I let him, lol!
Rarely do I approve of interior design, but I approve. Well done. Put the barn door handles in the middle of the door inset the design or to the rear of the door out of the way.
Glad we earned your approval! Everything looks and works great several months later! We'll get used to the door handles too, eventually!
I love your Moho! I have been struggling to decide what to buy… 36 ft for full time living, smaller for travelling.. 30ft can I get into those great “offroad “ places… decision has been killing me, and recently I have see this exact motorhome for sale for $4000…. But then fear the condition, the mechanics… OMG! Fear is killing my soul… I woke up this morning and saw this video… and now I KNOW I can make this work.
I understand your hesitancy because I went through the same thing not too long ago. I had never even spent the night in an RV and I bought one…out of state! Needless to say I need to change my life! 😂 So I bought it and moved and have loved every moment of it! Life is a fun adventure!! I am never bored! Don’t let fear keep you stuck. If you don’t wake up every morning excited about what the day holds for you then what have you got to lose? You only live once, right? 😊
@@KarmaCristie thanks.. My soul is totally dying in the life I am living right now.. and need that change.
I feel your pain. Such a hard decision. I thought I was done when I bought my 24ft Minnie. I'm not full time but I still struggle with the dilemma of should I go smaller to go on those off roads etc. Even at 24 ft. I'm limited on those backroads. Thinking about towing a car or just getting a Van or Class B RV. But everything is so expensive now and I hate the thought of spending more for less than what I have now. If you're full timing you may want to stick to something bigger then tow for off roading.
4K for this motorhome means some kind of major work. We got a steal of a deal for 12K with no water damage or engine issues. As for the road, every RV has it's advantages and disadvantages. We put the biggest All Terrain tires we could on this to give us the ability to get 5-10 miles down relatively well-maintained dirt roads to the places we love to camp the most (BLM land out west, Baja and Alaska). Pick what is most important to you and base the other decisions off that. For us, giving up our Pan-Am dream meant 2-3 years of living in the US and Mexico, where more room is a much nicer tradeoff.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nice transformation, without sacrificing comfort or function. I also liked the color decor you selected. BTW, you can get the T.V. remote by checking the model t.v. you have & going on line to buy it. Stay Safe & Healthy... Abrazos
Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave advice on the remote. It turns out it was at Chris's parents' house and they shipped it to us a week after we filmed this with THT! No more remote issue!
If you mentioned it and I didn’t hear…forgive me….but, did you paint your kitchen or wardrobe cabinets? If so, what kind of paint did you use. (Great idea about the panels in the doors.) Thanks. Love your RV.
That’s one thing I (Lindsay) forgot to mention! We did paint all of the cabinets with heirloom traditions paint. You can check out our channel and watch all of our remodel videos explaining everything we did in detail. Thanks for the awesome comment!
Wow! vey nicely done and it actually looks like a home and not an RV. Love the standing desk idea instead of a bed.
What I would be concerned with is the age of your engine and mileage. No one who buys older models mentions this. How they pick a USED RV etc.
True in some cases but this would depend on the past history of the rig itself and how previous owners cared for it. I know of at least two couples with RV's that are 15+ years old and are in top shape. There are way too many variable to consider when purchasing an RV but I would say that affordability is number one. People buy what they can afford.
@@rvnut1133 And be PATIENT when shopping. Have an inspection done if you don't know what you're looking for. And if the RV sells out from underneath you in the meantime (we lost 2 this way before we found this one!) then be even more patient and wait for the right one! Definitely had to be patient with our budget!
See if a universal remote will work with the TV.
I love your design, you both are a great match, Loving the solitude, Keep making video's together :)
Thanks! We're cranking them out over on our channel, if you haven't already paid it a visit! =)
Wow. Filing for later reference :)
Cozy yet modern
Super functional
Travel safe!
Thanks! Be sure to head over to our TH-cam channel as we put an entire 35-episode season together documenting each project, plus additional how-to info through our Patreon. You can also bookmark this post as we'll be updating it with more "how to" over the coming months: calledtowander.com/class-c-rv-remodel/
This Class C is ama-zing! Love the remodeling, absolutely gorgeous. We have a 2022 Class C, wanna trade, lol. Shasta was built between 1941-2004, Forest River took over in 2010 (Wikipedia). Quality campers back then, now, not so much and I can attest to that. Quality of workmanship is a thing of the past. Kudos to Lindsay and Chris. Enjoy your journey! 🪴
Thanks so much! We'd surely entertain a fair trade! =) Thanks for taking the time to watch and to comment with such positivity!
Same with housing.
What supplements do you take for crohns?
I enjoyed watching this. This RV is phenomenal. I could easily live in this one. They did a great job.
Thanks so much for watching and reaching out with such kind words!
Are the sconces on each side of the window where the couch sits in front of, did you make them? They add such a beautiful touch to the living room area. It really can pass for a home on a foundation. I also like that your bed is facing north & south, instead of east & west. I really like your camper best! You did it sensibly to fit your living on the road. You said the shower is the best place in the camper, I agree. To sum it up, you have a clutter-free, cozy, and bright and airy camper home!!!! So comfortable looking!!!
Hi Denise! Thank you for the wonderful comments! The sconces we found on Amazon. We loved the rustic look of them plus they already had a switch built in to them so didn’t have to add that later. You can check out our TH-cam channel for links to everything we bought for the camper.
Finally, someone else who says ‘crap ton’! Thank you Lindsay! Gorgeous build and inspiring story. Blessings to you!
Lindsay says "crap ton" a crap ton of times each week! =)
Great remodel. Love the colors. Only thing I would want would be a curtain or something for the potty. But I love everything you did especially the barn doors. I can see where the handle would be irritating. I had something like that and I was always getting hing up on it. Drove me bonkers. Safe and happy travels. Vaycon Dios!!
Thanks for watching and commenting! We're going to end up with a Mexican tapestry of some kind to hang between the kitchen and the bathroom. We just haven't found the right one yet!
Well done remodel & sprucing up. :-) Love the shower.area.
Thanks! The shower was a fun project and we're releasing a video on it soon on our Channel and have a post on our website. . calledtowander.com/rv-bathroom-remodel/
Uniquely suited for you, & it's nice to look at. I pray God's blessings on you & your calling as you go on this adventure. I love your little home.
Take black pepper with all suppliments and hope they work but the best way to combat disease is by first detoxing and then going raw organic vegan. Wish you well.
I like that you put in it what you love. Very cute. I can’t have knives out! Easy access for murders. Lol, silly but true.
Robin E
I do the same and for the same reason. I keep my butcher block in one of my lower cabinets pushed completely to the back. I know it won’t stop anyone who’s hell bent on doing harm but it still makes me feel a teeny tiny bit safer. I do the same with duct tape.
So so nice! Looks beautiful as well as functional. Many Blessings for a lovely time on the road. ❤️
Thank you so much!
You guys did a great job! It looks very homey and cozy.

Thanks! We're optimistic things will work out for all the hard work we're putting in pursuing the Abundant Life on the road!
Your remodel is absolutely gorgeous! Wow!! I love that you can walk around the bed to make it! The bathroom hands down is awesome! The design, colors , curtains, cabinets in kitchen, the door in bedrm. I too, would keep the handles on that Beautiful Door! Everything , too much too write. Lol!!! Thank you for sharing! Gosh You two should seriously think about designing and remodels on RV's, Etc.. This is a Beautiful, intelligent design!
Very beautiful, you could put leather straps for handles that way it wouldn't catch on your clothes.
Great idea!
I love your home. Have a safe and adventurous journey.
Thanks!
You have a beautiful home. Congratulations 🎉
Hello 👋 dear , how are you doing?
Be safe and have wonderful adventures with those beautiful dogs!! Your designs are great, lots of fantastic storage, good job guys!👍🏻🐾🌈🇨🇦
Thanks!
Love the home!! Please everyone hear the gospel message! Jesus is our only hope for freedom and Salvation! Ray Comfort has FREE movies and interviews on TH-cam with the gospel message!
How do you cope up with the composting toilet when you have loose motions?
Our composting toilet has a bag in the solids department so we just change it more often if there’s issues ☺️
ENJOYED YOUR TOUR AND YOUR LIFESTYLE...
Thanks!
Beautiful RV, but foremost.. beautiful people! Inspiring and bold!
We're humbled by your words and appreciate you taking the time to post them!
best of health for 2022! X
Thanks so much! You too!
I love your home and you both seem to be so in love and respectful to each other .
I eat, breath and dream of what you have or even smaller since I'm a sweet young single senior lady. The only thing stopping me is doing it alone, I'm independant in my life but I'm a people person and want to travel with someone who loves nature, travelling, stopping in a beautiful spot for a few weeks. I've prayed and prayed to the Lord to take away my fear of travelling alone but I really don't want to be alone. Too much beauty in Canada to not share while driving and chatting with a friend. May safety and good health follow you on your journey in life.   
Don’t be afraid! There are lots of women doing this solo! You will for a fact meet so many people once you start traveling that you will hardly ever be alone. Lots of people doing caravans as well
@@CalledToWander Thank you for your words of wisdom. Just want to have a lady friend while driving to enjoy the miles of things to see and enjoy on the way to destinations and of course share in expenses too
Beautiful couple. Great job on the remodeling. Very inspiring
Thanks!
Awesome all the best 🙏🏽 🌞 👍🏾
Thanks!
Great job! Looks so comfortable. I recommend getting rid of the TV and seeing if you can find a computer monitor that fits and then you could use it for work or stream a movie off your laptop. Happy travels. Stay well.
Great idea! We'll look into it down the road! So far everything works out fine and not too much of a hassle. But yes, consolidating is key in any RV!
Connect with Snow and Curt as well as the Vandersons. They're doing the same thing and they're awesome!
How do you control your crohns ? My son has severe crohns and would love to know which supplements you take. I absolutely love your rig ❤️
Crohns is different for everyone, so we can't say with any authority what may work for your son. Please do due diligence.

Fermented Codliver Oil
Mutivitamin with K2
Collagen peptides

You did a GREAT job redoing your RV. You should be very proud of yourselves. My husband and I lost our home about a year ago in the Northern California Complex Fire. We’ve been living in our 5th wheel ever since. You’ve given me some great Ideas on how I can update our 5th wheel. Thanks, Bebe
Sorry for your loss! But glad you've been able to make some adjustments in life. We'll be building out more information on how we did specific projects on our website and TH-cam channel. And if you ever have any specific questions feel free to send us an email. We respond to all!
Thank you for sharing your story and beautiful home. I know it must be difficult having a disease and traveling. Take care, may the Holy Spirit be with you both on your journey of life. Thank you both, absolutely beautiful.☮️🇨🇦💕
Thank you so much Hazel!
I am inspired by your journey and your rig. It's my dream to have something similar. Thank you foryou
Glad we could be an inspiration! Please subscribe to our channel if you haven’t already done so ☺️
So beautiful👍 Lindsey you are a great interior designer and your taste is super kool👏👏👏 Chris you are such a wonderful person. Your souls shines so brightly. Thank you for sharing your home with us and I'd like to follow your updates. 👏👏👏👏👏💖
Thanks so much for your kind words! If you haven't already done so you can head over to subscribe to our channel. And you can visit our website to sign up for our mailing list that we update...well, sometimes! We're in Baja now, so it's always manana, manana!
She mentions a man in FL who makes urine diverters. Can you provide contact info or a link to him? Thanks, awesome Reno!.
Beautiful! Only thing I would change (in case this would be mine) is to add sliding door between kitchen and bathroom area, since the is no privacy for potty. Just made it walkthrough bathroom. It would be more confortable for visitors and also for me.
Well thought out and well put together. Great job
Thank you for your kind words!
Beautiful mobile home 🏡!! Thank you for sharing your life story and how you got to where you are today. Have a wonderful life traveling!!🤗💜🌹😍🤩
Thank you! We do our best to keep pursuing Abundant Life on the road!
TV with no remote... lol and I'm betting it doesn't have channel buttons on the TV either. Lmao 🤣 I just went thru that. So I couldn't resist saying how dumb that is to not have any buttons on a TV.. hahaha! Besides your better off without. 😀 with that said I have to say this is the most awesome camper I've seen so far. 😍 you have done a wonderful job and it is unbelievable how big it is!!! Definitely a shocker when I saw it and the decor is beautiful 😍 I will be following your travels and take care, be safe and enjoy & love everything you have deserved. ❤️ I'm so jealous lol 😆
Thanks so much! First world TV problems for sure!
Beautiful! Great couple, take care of your health! That's number one! Enjoy, stay safe!
Thanks! Definitely keep a focus on that!
This is beautiful! Love the whole style just my style love the blue color to my favorite
Thanks!
Wow... Really impressive and love your guy's testimony and life story. You guys really have put a spark in my heart for possibly living out this type of living and life style. You guys are a great inspiration and want to say I will be keeping you in my prayers for safety and blessings from the good Lord above. A Fan Matt. B
Thank you for the wonderful comment Matt!
Beautiful remodel and lovely home! Such a nice coupe!
Thank you so much, we're flattered!
Wow, laundry shoot...
So much better to have dirty laundry "out of sight" than hanging in our truck camper bathroom where we had to push it out of the way every time we needed to use the toilet!
Thanks for the tip on the backsplash. Your place looks great.
Thanks! We lived and learned from the last RV for sure
Beautiful love it.. enjoy the open road be safe & God Bless, 💙💙
Thanks so much!
Gorgeous!
Thanks!
Great job on your camper i love it and i enjoyed your video and good Luck.
What a lovely couple you both are. Hello from Dublin Ireland ! 💕
Hello to Dublin! Such a friendly city! Many thanks for flattering us!
Your camper is quite lovely. You've done so much. May I be so bold as to ask what you both do for a living? I'm asking because you both travel a lot. I was wondering what jobs you have that allow you to do that. Thank you!
We run a blog with ads and affiliate sales, Chris does SEO website consulting and our TH-cam channel generates some income.
Plus we stop anytime we "run out of money" and we're not afraid to work hard. Construction, roofing, food service, hospitality industry, food and grocery delivery... the list goes on. Definitely not well-funded so we do a little bit of whatever comes our way when ends don't meet. But our passion is helping others, so we focus on growing our online business.
You guys are so inspiring I just subscribed can't wait to see your adventures 💗 Your Home is beautiful!
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch this and to subscribe to our channel! We're flattered to have such an impact in your life!
Love this remodel..I'm looking to buy a class c and would love to make it more homey like yours. Happy travels!!
Very nice…the layout is wonderful!!!!
Indeed it is! We wanted this particular RV for its factory layout and we wanted some open space to do our own thing (toilet/shower, desk/couch).
Wonderful job on this camper. So cozy and roomy!
Thanks! It definitely is!
You can buy a universal TV remote from Walmart. They're not expensive. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.
Thanks for the idea! We had the original remote shipped to us a week later as it was something we left behind when we were packing!
Wow, stunning! What a beautiful & cozy home 👍
Great couple! Beautiful class C. The interior design is perfect!! In my opinion. Thanks for the tips and sharing.
What a beautiful home it is spectacular xx
Love your home👏
Thanks! We do too!
Boondocking !!!????? great word ... had to google for meaning !! Great job on your camper van.
Thanks! Boondocking is quite common out on the road!
You've remade this camper BEAUTIFULLY!! the colors are gorgeous; it's tasteful...GREAT JOB!! 👍❤👣
Thanks! Lindsay has an eye for color!
Beautiful remodel! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment! We appreciate your kind words!
You already lived a life!!!
Great rigg, specious and warm....
Stay safe
We keep on living! Thanks for taking the time to watch and reach out!
Very nice! You have done a great job.
Thank you! It was tough work but worth it!
I wouldn't say you live "cheap." I would say you live like minimalists.
Great observation!
Using floor tiles for the backsplash is smart, itll be a LOT more durable since its meant to handle foot traffic and real spills
It's holding up so much better than what we had in our older truck camper!
P.S. I think it would be so exciting to be doing the traveling you are doing. What's boondocking?
Boondocking is camping without electric or water hook ups. Usually it’s free camping on public land with little to no facilities
Love your home
Love the standing desk!
First one I've seen.
So beautiful! How long is your RV ? No tow vehicle? Just the motor bike in the back?
It’s 31 feet and we have no tow vehicle, just regular old bicycles
Love your camper! You’ve done an awesome job making it beautiful and functional😀
Thank you for your kind words!
Love the bedroom!!😍😍
Thanks! It turned out nice for a simple job!
Consider changing out the barn door handles wo leather straps screwed to the door. No hanging of clothes anymore👍
That’s a good idea! Thanks!
What a wonderful home. Congratulations on your wonderful build. What a wonderful couple to foster all those children. God bless you both and best wishes from Melbourne, Australia.
Cheers and God bless you as well! We're humbled by your kind words!
Your build is amazing looks like a very cozy home. Very beautifully decorated. Safe travels.
Thanks! It has treated us very well so far!
Maybe change out your door handles with a beautiful strap of leather? Good job!
Someone else recommended that too. We'll look into the idea!
Wow, your home looks great!
For the handles in de bedroom, on the sliding doors you might want to consider leather grips. They do not hurt when you bump in to them and you will not tare a shirt or pocket.
Great idea! Thanks for pointing it out!
@Called To Wander you're welcome. I know Ikea has them too.
I have Crohns as well and always bring TP with me on my hikes LOL. You never know when a flare-up will hit you!
Hello fellow crohnie! Always pack extra TP and wet wipes!
@@CalledToWander oh yes! TP and wet wipes are a must! I’ll never forget having a flare up 20 miles into a hike and feeling like I was going to die 😂😭
HERMOSA!!♡
Gracias!
Very nice. Love the black and white tile backsplash.
Thanks! A simple touch that goes so far!
Do leather handles for your bedroom doors.
Very nice god bless
Thanks!
I watch so many channels like this I think I've seen this one before.
Only if you follow us already. We put our personal tour out before this one reached the edit floor so there's a little redundancy in the internet world
@@CalledToWander makes sense, I do a lot of tiny home, tiny travel, RV, camping channels. 👍
