Her Bohemian Camper Van Tiny House - Solo Female Van Life On The Road

Well said Manny

[@dedepyle7046]

I'm going to give you a bit of info as an ex firefighter. Always keep smoke detectors up high and carbon very low. Smoke rises and gases settle on the floor. I really love your home. It is absolutely amazing.

[@dedepyle7046]

Yes, always put your carbon detectors low. The carbon is very heavy and sits on the floor. As it fills and rises and if your detector is high, by the time the carbon is detected...you're probably going to be unconscious or dead. I can never stress enough how important it is for the carbon detectors are to be low on the floor. Carbon monoxide is odorless and therefore is a silent killer. I hope I did not scare you, but this is so important to me. I had 2 longtime childhood friends that passed away from carbon monoxide poisoning. The two girls, one my age and one 4 years younger are gone and the mother had severe brain trauma that never recovered from the carbon monoxide. I hope this helps you. Keep on trucking on my friend.

I've never seen a van with a wall to separate the 2 areas but that is such a good idea! The arch door is so cute! Definitely one of the best vans I have ever seen. It really looks and feels like a little home rather than a vehicle.

That arched pocket door is the coolest thing ive seen in a van build. Separates driving area from living area yet you get immediate inside access to the front .

[@gadeaiglesiassordo716]

not a fan of separating the living area from the driving area(for space and safety reasons)but her solution is amazing. then the kitchen area is huge for a van (the corner kitchen feels like heaven) I missed a shower cabinet though

Gteat build, great video. I do like to see the outside of the vehicle first and have the camera then enter through entrance so I have a understanding of the whole layout and of the direction. The arched door..Maybe I missed it, want to see more and hear more about the arched door, her going through it to front drivers seat. Still great all around and luv Ranger, ADORABLE💜

[@justrosy5]

Plus it means that, so long as it's latched open, and there's clearance in the back, she can still use the rear-view mirror! I haven't actually finished the video yet though. I stopped to compliment her on her great use of storage for her clothes over the cabin area!

Also like how your fridge fits and the corner sink. Your dad is very talented! The pocket door to the cab is very cute, so the only thing I would change is to use some nice storage bags to hold my clothes in, nicely labeled, above the cab and I would put in some extra batteries and solar panels to run the toaster oven better.

We all really need to band together so it isn't criminalized. Van people aren't normally criminals, trouble makers or drug addicts. It's going to be a big deal very soon for many with high inflation and not being able to afford to live anywhere. If you don't have full cash, you'll be screwed. I really want to see solutions for WORKING POOR. Not just generations of lazy. If you go to school/trade school, that's different.

I love the van, lovely soft colour scheme. I particularly love all the plants. I lived solo on the road for 7 years, eventually stopped because I wanted a garden. Here in Australia it's not possible to travel with plants unless you confine yourself to certain areas. Some state borders have strict plant quarantine control which can't be passed with fruit vegetables honey flowers and plants.

[@pampire13]

There's some measure of plant restriction in the US. It's largely regional. I live in WA, where apples are a big cash crop. There are road signs announcing a quarantine of any plant that could harbor apple maggots. In Las Vegas, it's illegal to plant olive trees. They were planted in huge #s during the housing booked they've had. They aren't native and the amount of pollen they release is astounding. It can cause a traffic hazard. I'm sure there are more.

@@RubyRage Into Qld is not a problem, SA and WA have very strict rules and you'll get checked, WA doesn't allow honey or fruit, vegs, plants flowers or even boxes that stuff has been in. Then there's the fruit fly exclusion zone which covers parts of NSW, SA, VIC you'll find it on maps. I used to get rid of stuff before entering Broken Hill then stay there a week and again use up everything to go into SA. You can bring it into SA if it's cooked, I once turned all my salad veges into a cooked curry to save them. Check the rules or you'll get fined. Problem I found heading West on the Nullarbor was you had to use up all fresh stuff to cross the border check point into WA and then it was 700km to the next small shop. I always took min 10 days to cross it so had to plan well in advance with tinned and dry stuff. Also empty your bin, everything gets checked.

Wow, this is true art. Thanks so much for sharing this, and I hope your dad is beaming with all these comments. It's the best van build I've seen too, thanks to the story of him dedicating his evenings to the fine workmanship. Such clever and thoughtful storage ideas.

I am obsessed with this van! She did so much with a pretty small space and it looks beautiful

[@jennadimuccio4787]

Ive watched tons off van conversions and the l-shape in the kitchen was a great idea. But up front where the hammock is you could install a permanent shower/toilet of a full size refrigerator and really utilize that space. And you also have enough counter space for a burner for cooking.

Beautiful van layout. Love the partition wall separating house, and the L-shaped kitchen. Looks very homey.

As a fellow plant lover I love, Love, LOVE your use of copper throughout your van and to display your plants. My plants and soaking bathtub are two things I knew I'd miss once I begin my van life and now I know that I'll have at least one of the two! I also appreciate seeing someone with a 9-5 making this lifestyle work for them. Now, if I can only find someone as handy as your dad! God bless.

Maybe you can get a tub to use outdoors

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

Why not learn to do it all yourself? You'll need those skills later on.

I have seen a van build with a bath tub! They simply cover it up and it becomes a seat when not in use as a bathtub. Didn’t look like the longest bathtub, but it was definitely a bathtub!!

Food grade barrels are sometimes cut in different ways to be used for animal feeders and water troughs. Maybe something like that could be cut in a way to work with a stand so it won't roll or tip over. When not in use it could be tied to racks on top of the van. A couple farm bucket style water heaters could help the water be hot enough, or some other way - don't give up.

This is SO perfect. Love Ranger's hidey hole. Just beautifully done, not just functional. Wow.

[@TrishMilburn]

Your van home is gorgeous. I love how bright and open it feels despite it being a small space. Also love the "less house, more home" sign.

[@brendaandranger]

Aw thanks so much, Trish! 😊💛

[@theequeenbeast2746]

I love her energy, the cohesive decor blend, the couch conversion option, and that she has a 9-5 While she was doing the conversion.

[@jelica9475]

The bed to the couch! Never see one of those before. Props to you and dad for an amazing build. You should be a designer, your use of colors and elements is truly beautiful.

[@CowboyBike06]

This conversion s beautiful!! Love the plants, swing chair, arched pocket door, everything!! It feels like a quaint little home in the forest. Great job to her and her father!

[@TroyD-vo1bz]

One thing that really stands out or sets this van apart from others is the details. Combining different textures and patterns add so much to a van to make it more of a home. Everything from the decorative tiles to the copper and then variety of fabrics all blend together very nicely to create a really nice homey feel. I really like it!

[@brendaandranger]

Aw thank you so much! 😊

[@MoniqueRomUK]

My absolute, favourite decor of any van I've seen yet! Gorgeous and superbly functional. Many congratulations to you and your dad!

[@nanetterivera6612]

KUDOS to your dad for all the hard work, it's beautiful ❤️!

[@alicewilson8588]

Your van is so cute. You really did accomplish the "homey" feel. I just love it.

[@smallfootprint2961]

Awesome lady, and awesome van. Nice to have a supportive, knowledgable dad.

[@s-7335]

Great job girl! I love that quote "less house more home"!

[@moongold9025]

What an absolutely beautiful van/home Brenda and her dad created together which I think is wonderful! Ranger is so adorable 😍 I wish you Brenda & Ranger safe travels. Cheers to you and the van life 🧡

[@ccaatttiraffe]

Her layout is the closest I've seen to what I want! Love this, can't wait for vanlife.

[@TeamSEEK]

It's nice that even a small gap is used effectively. I wanted to imitate the retractable table outside. Thank you for sharing your wonderful video.

[@brendaandranger]

Aw I’m so glad! Thanks for watching!

[@debracottrill7989]

Love how real you are, if it wasn't in your soul you wouldn't be living it. Thank you, happy travels wherever you may wonder ☮️✌️

[@gracel3320]

Just beautiful, best I’ve ever seen. The clean lines and organization is stellar! Congratulations to your dad for his expert help, I’m sure he’s proud of you! God bless you and Copper and enjoy your amazing home! ❤️

[@JGDD7190]

This has to be one of the best and most beautiful conversation I have ever seen.

[@larrybill2661]

Hello Dee how are you doing!!

[@SadbhW]

Four years of watching van tours and this is still my favourite. May have watched an embarrassing number of times 😅

[@gnarbeljo8980]

Without question one of the loveliest vanbuilds this size I’ve seen. Why? It looks light and airy, the L-shaped kitchen, loads of storage and function but hidden away and so uncluttered, no heavy cabin-feel. Also the attention to details for your pupperoo and I love light, plants and copper! Brilliance looking simple! 👏👏👏❤️

[@travelingirl6448]

Your van is lovely and really does "feel" like a home. You and your dad did a beautiful job. There were so many things that I loved but I especially loved the plant shelf around the top and also the special place so your dog can feel comfortable while you are away. Good job and thank you for showing us your home.

[@TheChristalblue]

Yours is the second of thousands of videos on van life I have watched where I got the van bug. What a phenominal build you and your dad have created for your tiny home on wheels. I am saving this one and considering this seriously now . Please tell us how you safely hang a hammock chair in a van. Obviously you know how. Enjoy the journey and thanks for sharing.
