No Experience. Simple Minivan Build. Our Minivan to Camper Conversion & Van life Journey Across Canada.

Hey friends,

Welcome back to Camp My Minivan!

In this video, we’re sharing our honest story of how two first-timers, with no van build experience, converted a Dodge Grand Caravan into a cozy camper and drove 13,242 km across Canada, from Calgary, Alberta to Summerside, Prince Edward Island.

It wasn’t easy, and we definitely didn’t have all the tools, knowledge, or fancy setup that most vanlifers online seem to have. But that’s exactly why we made this video, to show that you don’t need experience to start. You just need curiosity, a bit of courage, and a willingness to learn along the way.

If you’ve ever thought about building your own camper or hitting the road but didn’t know where to start, this story is for you.

What’s Inside This Video:

👉 The Myth of the “Perfect Vanlife Setup”
👉 How the Dream Started (Lyna’s 10-Year Vanlife Wish)
👉 Searching for a Van: Marketplace Failures & Kit Options
👉 Building It Ourselves & Life on the Road: Minimalism, Nature & Feeling Alive
👉 It Was Never About PEI, the Journey Changed Us
👉 Before Everything … There Was Fear

We also want to give a huge thank-you to the vanlife community, the countless creators, travelers, and DIY builders who’ve shared their builds, tips, and honest experiences online. Watching your videos and reading your blogs truly made our journey smoother and gave us the confidence to start our own build. Every bit of inspiration helped us learn, improvise, and create our own version of home on wheels.
