VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Description:
Join Deyana on a unique tour of her meticulously crafted home on wheels - a custom van designed for comfort, functionality, and adventure. In this video, Deyana, a former Division I college soccer player turned van lifer, shares her passion for an active lifestyle and the freedom of the road.
🚐 Step inside Deyana's kitchen, a space that seamlessly blends functionality with style. Admire the micro cement countertops, a novel material she sourced from Smartr in Spain, which adds a modern touch to her van. Discover the convenience of her sink with a detachable faucet, essential utensils, open shelving for plates and bowls, and ample storage for cooking supplies.
🍳 Deyana's cooking setup is a dream for any culinary enthusiast, featuring an induction cooktop, a Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro, and a Nova Cool fridge-freezer combo. Her kitchen epitomizes efficient use of space while not compromising on the essentials needed for creating delicious meals on the go.
🛋️ Explore the multi-functional living area that doubles as Deyana's dining room and workspace. The lagoon-mounted table, adjustable for various activities, and a comfy chair with extensive storage underneath, make for an ideal remote work setup. Deyana's innovative use of space even includes a cleverly concealed mirror on drawer slides for daily use.
💰 Hear about Deyana's journey in acquiring her van, a used vehicle bought in Phoenix for $30,000 with 38,000 miles on it. With an all-in cost of around $55,000, including her DIY build, Diana emphasizes the value of her investment in her mobile home and lifestyle.
🚿 The compact yet fully functional shower, finished with micro cement and stone tiles, showcases Diana's attention to detail. With a Nautilus door and a 33-gallon water capacity coupled with a 12-volt hot water heater, the shower area is ingeniously designed for efficiency and comfort.
🛌 Moving to the bedroom, Deyana highlights her full-size foam mattress, perfect for a restful sleep after a day of adventure. The installation of windows for ventilation and the strategic placement of storage demonstrate her thoughtful approach to van life design.
🔋 When it comes to power, Deyana chose Renogy components for their reliability and ease of monitoring via a smartphone app. Her van is equipped with 600 amp hours of lithium batteries, a 3,000W inverter charger, 400 watts of solar on the roof, and a DC to DC charger for on-the-go battery charging.
🏞️ The garage area of the van is a testament to Deyana's active lifestyle, storing all essentials like a water tank, heater, pump, and electrical components, along with shelves for shoes, tools, and camping gear.
📣 Deyana's journey to van life started after a breakup and a TikTok inspiration. Embracing her independence and love for travel, she took the leap into van life, transforming her life with new experiences and adventures. She encourages others, especially solo females, to trust their instincts and embrace the van life experience.

I give all you single girls so much credit forgoing it alone! It's like having a super power when you're so afraid of the dark as I am, I just know i would be too stressed out by myself. Great build on your van. Looking to build tiny, but not mobile. I have a design I saw online and cannot find it to save my brains!!! But i can't remember enough of the parts that connected three smaller containers as rooms jutting out of a center circular sunroom it was awesome!

@stephaniewillard5220 2 ай бұрын

I watch youtube on my tv and rarely take time to grab my phone & comment... But had to get on here to say, " Wow!... What an impressive van build"! You should be so proud. You have everything and it all looks fabulous. I dont think you even mentioned that huge flip up counter extension, (though it was easy to see). I love the concrete look. And one of the best van refrigerators Ive ever seen! I also cant recall u mentioning where u store any dry food, but Im guessing in the couple of cabinets u didnt open. I love that u have a dog for companionship & saftey. I think having a somewhat intimidating looking dog is so important, especially for a solo female traveler. (We traveled with a 100+lb German Shepherd for nearly 12 years. Though he was well socialized, he always gave me piece of mind (and we also have a Shih Tzu who will let us know if a leaf blows by...lol). Your dog is awesome.😊 And most of all, I'm so impressed that u did this build yourself and its as nice as a professional build and in 4 months....so impressive! We live & travel in a 40ft 5th wheel with 2 dogs and have remodeled 2 big 5th wheels at this point, just to make them more homey. But I thought they were hard and took us longer then 4 months. But if I were by myself, I could happily live in a nice Van like yours. Great job!Thanks for the tour. Best wishes & safe travels.

My mom taught me that and how to pack to get the most of your space. The problem came when airlines held you to 50lbs! I absolutely can pack a suitcase to full capacity, not an air pocket to be found! One agent made me open my bag and removed one item. ??? LoL I grabbed a pair of jeans that were a little bit big, and threw them in the trash can, it made him happy, the weight still over 50 lbs went through with a heavy tag stuck on it.

Greetings from a guy in Phoenix, what an amazing build you've created! Was it easy to find a van like yours at Valley dealerships? Seems hit or miss, I currently have a 2017 RAV4 but really like the idea of going larger and building it out like you have. Blessings and safe travels! 🙏
