Self-Built Cabin Van Tour | Filmmaker Couple Living Off-Grid

Enjoy this tour of our original, self-built, budget friendly van where we live full-time. Dive into our journey of transforming a simple van into a rustic, reclaimed wood cabin featuring an original layout, repurposed materials, cottage-core aesthetics, security measures, adventure-ready and off-grid amenities, and organic minimalism. Reflect with us on what works, what doesn't, and what's next for our off-grid living adventure. From a full kitchen equipped with a gas stove and a spacious oven to innovative storage solutions and a versatile workspace, every inch of our van is designed with purpose and care. If you're passionate about van life, sustainable living, or just love a good DIY project, this video is for you!
