DIY COUPLE REBUILDING / REFURBISHING CAMPER OVER CAB BED - LeAw Vlog

Welcome to our channel! We are Sara and Luca, Italian couple and travel storytellers!
Are you ready to travel with us?
"Leave everything and wander” is the result of Sara Bertagnolli’s and Luca Sguazzini’s desire to join their own skills and realise a dream: that of traveling, leaving the certainties and securities of everyday life behind.
After university Sara achieved high-level professional goals in the field of management and became the personal assistant to the fashion designer Philipp Plein.
Luca has been traveling a lot since he was a child and the last year he gained notoriety for his participation in the Italian version of “Dancing with the stars”; he has more than 138k followers on Instagram and 50k on Facebook.
They have decided to join forces and to tell a life out of the ordinary on social networks. The plan is to travel through Canada, Alaska and, in a second moment, United States, Messico and South America and to share the trip’s photos and videos on KZbin, Facebook and Instagram, giving to everyone the possibility to experience the “wander-spirit”.
Traveling without temporal or spatial limits will give Sara and Luca the possibility to entangle their story with that of people they will meet on the road and to discover new cultures, visiting also the places which are not famous, the ones which often have the biggest surprises in store.
The start-up budget will be limited in order to demonstrate that - also without great economical resources - everything is possible if you put the work in and involve as many people as possible.

THANK YOU!! There are a LOT of rebuild videos for over cab bed and it is very time consuming to watch as many videos as you need to get all the information to DIY, but you guys managed to squeeze an entire rebuild in less than 7 minutes AND included enough pertinent information to give people a good idea of what to do! Thank you for appreciating our time!

[@hilaryholt3061]

You guys are amazing! From the very start of your adventure you get stuck in and repair the rotten camper. Now I can see how you had the inspiration to renovate your beautiful house in Sicily!

[@TheCrazyAztec]

I have to say am blown away at how much work you two have put in, right from the start - now completely understand your relationship with Lucky LeAw...!

[@liberavitale2480]

Wow! Mi ero persa questo video! Mamma mia che lavorone! Bravi ragazzi! Ne avete davvero passate di tutti i colori!

[@leaw]

Libera Vitale Guardando indietro possiamo davvero dire che ne abbiamo passate di tutti i colori! Abbiamo fatto cose che mai avremmo pensato. E chissà quante ne passeremo ancora! 😁🚐🌍🌎🌏🚐😁

[@saulorozco5787]

Nice job guys you really gave me the push I needed cause my rv is all rotten as well . I will fix it. Thank you.

[@donnamarsh2432]

Wow! You guys are so smart to figure out how to fix! Much respect! You both have such patience!

[@deniseterrell2515]

I am so glad you went back to the couple that sold it to you and got 500 dollars back and they let you fix it in their backyard.. You two work fast. It’s a nice camper now.

[@leaw]

Good morning Denise! Yeah! Thank you very much for watching and commenting! 🙏❤😊👍😉👋 Cheers, Luca & Sara

Great 👍 job guys 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Pattybluehayes]

Wow. So much damage and you two forged ahead and met that challenge.

[@tylerhargett1425]

Great job! , I'm about to do the same thing on my camper, all the old rotten stuff is taken out, just have to put new down and paint

[@leaw]

Thank you very much! Have a fun job, we wish you the best.

[@Chantwizzle]

Did you get a new mattress? We had this same problem. We bought a new mattress as the old one had mold on the bottom and I'm sure it was making us sick. It started to smell really bad. We bought a new one that folds into 3 sections like a futon. So once a week we fold it up and make sure the condensation can evaporate. We also added a new insulation layer and a Dry Fast mat.

[@leaw]

Hi Chantal, no we haven't changed our mattress because it is still good. We changed the cover. Yes, we added some new insulation layers as well. In this video, we change the cover and we reduce the mattress form king size to queen size: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmK1koyVpK6Zhdk In this video, we renovate the camper and rebuild the front part: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJrOY6OApd59i9E Second part: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6PdoWiGqcuSg68 In this video, we paint all the outside of the camper: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJOygWiwq8iWppo

[@ericw3116]

I've been watching you guys since Mexico, today I'm starting from the beginning! At least they refunded money and let you repair it in their yard!

[@thenomadicfrog2831]

Great job guys . I've seen the finished product . From Trent and Allie . Now I'm see how you started and will watch all ur videos . I am rebuilding a 1974 Condor II motorhome . Starting to post on my channel . The nomadic frog . Hope to see you some day. Till then chow Bella

[@leaw]

Ciao! Welcome to our channel! Good luck with the rebuilding!!

[@williambranham6249]

And I thought Venice had water issues. Great job! Just a quick reminder. Protect your young healthy beautiful lungs with a filter mask. New sub.! Will continue to follow.

[@leaw]

HI! Yes, we will! Welcome to LeAw's family! Thank you very much for watching and commenting! 🙏❤😊👍😉👋 Cheers Luca & Sara

[@go-yolo]

Great job guys we are impressed :) !! The water leaking was just terrible ... but where it comes from ? Roof ?

[@leaw]

GO-YOLO I think is because of the condensation! Old campers have problems of this kind!

[@doctorplastic]

There usually is not enough condensation to puddle. You have a leak. Most leaks on trailers/campers like this come from windows or the seams/edges where the two exterior aluminum panels connect. I wouldn't want all of your hard work and money to go to waste. I would highly recommend finding the leak and properly repairing it.

[@leaw]

doctorplastic yes! We sealed all the roof, windows.

[@granolagasoline2725]

AMAZING video!!! thank you so much for making this. about to buy a truck camper!

[@Abeaness]

Did I miss you put insulation in the floor? If not, your going to be cold if you are camping in any sort of mild colder temps at some point. Insulation is important for keeping the camper comfortable duri g not only cooler but also warmer weather…

[@MrTubeman123456]

Great video but like u found out rot loves campers most I think didn't use pressure treated wood I am planning to buy a used one myself so I now know what to expect thank you for your revealing video very informative.

[@Kelleena1on1]

Amazing I think I found you thru mr and mrs adventure :-) your an interesting couple ( your stories ) so I started from your beginning and I’m amazed :-)

[@outdoorswithlarryrobin]

We had rebuilt a Lindy Class C the same way 23yrs ago, Class C in Greek means “LEAK” Lol

[@leaw]

Hahahaha! The Greeks know about it!

[@lopezadventures2102]

Great tips check everything 🤙👍

[@leaw]

always checking is a good idea ;)

[@frankl643]

It was amazing.

Hey Frank, thank you! =D We are glad you like it. Thank you very much for watching and commenting! 🙏❤😊👍😉👋 Cheers Luca & Sara

[@frankl643]

@@leaw You are all wonderful people. I am in Toronto Canada, I will be very glad to meet you here if you still have a plan to travel to east side of Canada.

[@leaw]

Thank you Frank! We where there in November 2017. We miss Canada, if we ever plan to go there again we will let you know! =)

Of coarse it does. Lowermainland cesspool of mildew and mild since it rains for 10 months a year.

[@aurora-ute]

Great Job. Cant wait to get my hands on a old camper and rebuild it. Will be my first time, but I love to learn new stuff. Are you from Italy?

[@leaw]

Spiritual & Metaphysical TV 👋🏻 Yes we are from Italy 🇮🇹😁 what about you? Nice project to rebuild an old camper! Was our first time too 💥💥💥😉✌🏻

[@aurora-ute]

Well I am from Germany, living in Texas with my family. We lived 5 years in Italy, and I miss the good food and colors. Just a beautiful place to live. I do have already a Truck Camper which I changed into my Moblietreatment room. I hope soon to travel a little and bring Hypnosis or so to does who need it. But I would love for my son to travel. I hope that he will watch you and get inspiration from your amazing craziness. You 2 are just cool.

[@leaw]

Thank you very much Aurora, we hope you will be able to travel soon with your Truck Camper. It is so nice to be able to do it! 🚐🌍🌏🌎🚐😉👍

[@leaw]

🙏❤😊👍😉👋 Thank you Bunty!

[@Flightstar]

I got a camper very similar to yours, but the floor under the mattress is really good, but the wood underneath is rotting. It can be repaired from the outside by removing the aluminum exterior. You are in Vancouver area. come and stay at my place out in country side and repair my camper ,you look like you do good work. I have lots of tools, and space to work, and you can work on your projects too.

[@leaw]

videoclipits hey, nice! If we were still in Canada we would come and help you out! Unfortunately we already are in California USA. We hope you will be able to fix it soon. After we repaired our camper, we never had any leaking problems again. We insulated also all the over-cab bed area, you can check out Vlog #064 and at Vlog #065. Cheers Luca & Sara

[@ALLNAMESAREALLREADYT]

yes, every begining is hard ... do you have any nostalgy at the begining , I mean did you ever think to go back in Italy , to your old life , old job ?

[@marekkoralewski8757]

😍😍😍

[@karmathegiant]

Looks so different then compared to now. Yup look everywhere! 😳😳😳😳Wish you had of worn a mask around all that insulation and mold! I think you should have put the moisture barrier on top of the layer of insulation then the plywood. Similar to when you put insulation in the walls of a house?

[@haroldwilkerson2026]

I traded a truck for an old camper and the man said it never had water in it when I loaded it on a truck water poured out the back door I still traded for it because I can use the windows and everything inside to build a whole new slide in camper good luck on your adventure

[@leaw]

You made the right choice! thank you so much and welcome to our LeAw family!!

[@4ruoteeunacapanna]

Tra poco tocca a me, se mi serve una mano vi posso chiamare? eheheheheeh Un abbraccio!

[@leaw]

Abbiamo appena visto il video delle tue infiltrazioni! Wow! =( Ci dispiace tantissimo! Cosa usi? Rullo, pennello o spray? Se hai bisogno scrivici che ti facciamo un video tutorial! Più che altro fai attenzione a distribuire il peso nel caso ti dovessi appoggiare sul tetto, noi avevamo usato assi di legno e per fortuna siamo abbastanza leggeri! Ti assicuro che nei prossimi video ne vedrài di belle, ci siamo dovuti inventare di tutto per aggiustare alcune parti del camper! Ti mandiamo un abbraccio e tanta energia positiva! ;) Luca & sara

[@4ruoteeunacapanna]

Grazie, in questi giorni ne ho proprio bisogno.......

[@leaw]

Sappiamo cosa stai per passare....... cerca di prenderla sempre con positività. ;)

[@kimberlypuravida5690]

I am so sorry they did that to you but I am thankful they refunded you. Nice work!

[@leaw]

Yeah! And we rebuilt it in 48 hours! Really fast!

[@kimberlypuravida5690]

@@leaw you did a great job! You work well together!!!

[@alana7228]

Such a shame, but very lucky to get a partial refund. With the work you have done, maybe you'll make a profit when you eventually sell the camper. 😉

[@leaw]

Yes you are right! In the next videos we will show how we have changed all the interiors :)

@@user-gj8mn4ce8d I think a gentle reproach is usually better received, by the content providers as well as the audience.

You're really lucky! Used = As Is! The people did not have to refund you anything NOR let you work on it at their place.

Could you not smell any odor from that rot?

They should have given you ALL your money back. It wasn't saleable. Well, maybe partly. I dislike dishonesty. 😲😒
