VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Rachel accomplished a lifelong dream of becoming a personal trainer and tackled the challenge of traveling solo in a van. Combining these two passions has allowed her a life on the road, doing what she loves!
The interior has a functional layout with a u-shaped couch that quickly converts into a dining, working, or sleeping area. The kitchen provides plenty of prepping space with Maple butcherblock countertops and a 16" flip-up extension. There's a full shower with a toilet and a tropical curtain for privacy.
She installed a door dividing the cab from her living space for privacy and protection. Besides the workout gear stored inside the ProMaster, she also has a squat rack that transforms from the back of her van. So cool! This surf-chasing girl follows the sun and has the perfect van to do it in!

I’ve been a subscriber of your channel for a while, I have enjoyed & seen amazing content that you’ve put together. But…. This one hits different for me because, I feel like this is a very inspiring way to motivate young women like myself to be brave! That it is possible to do things on your own this lady sparks so much joy. This van not only is it clean, minimal & feminine but it’s design operates in a very organised way it shows that you don’t need much in order to be happy. 🥰

Things I want, if I lived in a van: #1. 1000 watt microwave. #2 Good sized freezer, for 400 frozen sandwiches, frozen vegies and frozen meat and fish. #3 Tools, gear and a 40+ gallon water tank under the bed. #4 Ceramic wall heater. #4 200 cans of soup. #5 2500w Power Station hooked up to solar on the roof, or a SphereMotor. #6 A sponge. #7 Coffee maker and a rice cooker. #8 A good wall cabinet setup. #9 Pullout toilet under the seat. For dinner put some frozen vegies in microwave and then add a can of soup. Next microwave a frozen sandwich. Next wet hair, add shampoo and then rinse in the sink with warm water from the microwave. Next clean body with warm sponge. Next turn on the Ceramic Wall Heater. Next, be free and happy.

Whenever it was that I watched the 1st tiny house, I loved it. In 2011 I had to move back to my childhood home, the last thing I thought was that I'd still be living here, since I've made my health priority. . Where I am, I hope this will not be my forever home in N.J. I wouldn't even know how to start this process. Any suggestions welcome!!

@tropicallytoned5962 Жыл бұрын

Hi Tara, Prioritizing health is always no. 1! When you are in a position to start building a TH, my advice would be to buy the van (or whatever home style you’re after) and learn as you go, instead of waiting until you feel you know everything. Just take it one KZfaq video at a time!
