Small BUDGET VAN TOUR / Kia Pregio DIY conversion #7

Small Budget Van Build in my 2003 Kia Pregio

Just thought I would share my van with everyone.
Although it is a constant work in progress and I'm always changing things around, this will give you an idea of a layout for a small van.
There are some things that I didn't show and over time will be adding them into other videos. If you would like to be updated on changes and our travels, follow Tonka and I on Instagram @ozzyvanlife
New YouTube vlog every week

Moving the bed and kitchen has been a game changer for us, anyone building out a small van, think really if you want to be outside trying to cook in the rain and fighting flies. This has also allowed us to park up more stealthy in the city. We can now pull up, go into the back and not have to get back out till morning. You can watch the kitchen reno YouTube vlog on my channel.

DON'T LET AGE HOLD YOU BACK

Tonka and I have now only been on the road living full time in my DIY Kia Pregio, selling everything I own, packing my bags in the quest to travel, explore and meet new people while on the road. I'm a mother of 3 amazing kids ( all grown ) and a grandmother of 2 with more to come in the new year.

Tonka Tuff is a Jack Russell pup born on the 1st April 2020, travels with me full time. Due to the Corona Virus we are only staying in Western Australia. COVID has not really effected Western Australia as out borders had been closed very early on, helping control the virus more quickly.
We are free to travel within our state.

Hopefully in the very near future, we will be able to go into other states and explore this beautiful country we call home.

If you see Tonka and I on the road, come say Hi! Happy and safe travels to everyone. Contact us: @ozzyvanlife
