Interested in van life? Looking for road trip guides to destinations across the United States? We’re here to help.
In 2020, we converted a musty old 1994 Dodge Ram Conversion Van into a cozy little log cabin home we named Phoebe. Since then we’ve been living the van life and touring the United States.
Building our beast of a van wasn’t easy. We made a lot of mistakes. Mistakes that cost us thousands of dollars and hours of wasted time, not to mention the frustration. Fortunately, you don’t have to. Our friends Katie & Ben over at Two Wandering Soles made these insanely detailed van build guides and blueprints. They can help you like they have countless others avoid the disastrous pitfalls many first-time builders fall into. And being professional engineers and designers…they know what they’re talking about.
I’m a budget traveler through & through. My entire blog is dedicated to showing you the best experiences for the most affordable price. If you haven’t converted a van before this is THE BEST guide out there for the money. & if you just need guidance on a certain part of the build (like the electrical) I highly recommend picking up one of their blueprint bundles. Seriously, make this massive project easier on yourself.
Now let’s get into the good stuff…
Our road trip guides, National Park tips, & a general look at what it’s really like to live in a van.
