Vanlife | Micro-Camper | Roomtour

This is a tour of my mini van camper conversion, or as Vanlifers say… ‘Roomtour‘
If anyone is interested in how I built it, let me know in the comments and I make a video showing the build.
Hope you Enjoy
Wishing you always blue skies

This is the best micro camper layout I have seen. I love the contrast between the light and dark wood. Absolute genius.

[@jeromevanlife]

Wow, super use of the small space, awesome job mate!!!

[@jajaed5946]

Fantastic.

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

Thanks

[@davidmckeown6472]

Very informative and relaxed video. Thanks a lot for uploading it, you've given me some nice ideas. Best of luck from the UK mate.

[@Seaspirit73]

One of the best configurations I've seen! Love your van!

[@dianeb7526]

What a lovely lady and such an efficient build! I love it. You always find the nice and interesting people. Thank you both.

[@dross24MA]

Nice job - and a different approach from the other micro-builds that makes it quite useful for two at the table. The external access to the water plus the alarm really are inspirational. Congrats on thinking around the box - GRIN!

[@s1dew1nd3r4]

Thats a mega little setup i must say, very well thought out and put together!

[@SaraB305x]

amazing conversion!

[@angelabraggs7614]

A beautiful beautiful van set up. I love it

[@kimkelberg]

One off the best self build small campers i have seen

[@willeel3750]

Absolutely brilliant. Thanks for posting.

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

thank you 😊

[@NotASheep100]

Ingenious... bluddy good job. Good to see a rooftop box, makes total sense. Don't understand why other van conversions don't use a rooftop box. Weldone.... looks good

[@jatorresrv]

Very nicely thought out and built. Thanks for sharing.

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

Thanks 🙏🏻

[@mand7favs1]

That is a great van. Love the layout esp with the table set up. Gorgeous red. Can't say enough good about it and all your accessories. Love it!

[@-Ryans]

[@stevia13]

LOOOOOVE it!! Gaggin for a van - wish I was handy enough to tackle a self build - don't know anything about electrics, plumbing, insulating ....so it goes on :-( Anyhoo - love it.

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

thank you 🙏🏻

[@gustavotibaldi7651]

Me Gusta! Saludos!

[@patriciawilliams3165]

Love this! So organized. Could you do with a couple inch thinner of foam on the be to allow just a little more headroom?

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

yes, I thought about that… but the comfort for sleeping in our case outweighs the need for head room 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@krewetkaaaa]

One of the best conversions I've seen. And does not look that complex to do like some I saw :) Edit: after watching build video...I see it is really complex :D

[@Dee777i]

If it makes you happy that's all that matters.

[@YJ-xg2pd]

Awesome layout! Would you mind sharing your dimensions exact measurements of your build! Would love that! Thank you!

[@tripmood365]

Hi friends. 🤠 Absolutely wonderful precise design and insane end result. This was the best version of the microcar design I've seen. Last Friday, I bought a Peugeot Partner 2014, a 1.4l diesel van without rear windows and I am absolutely crazy and impatient to start turning it into a motorhome. I have already dismantled the walls of the back room, and the floor from old cardboard. Now I'm going to start installing the laminate floor. and then I start carefully planning the interior. I would really like to see a video of how you did it all. What are the dimensions of the back of your car? Length + width + height ? Let's be in touch. Good luck! 🚀

[@strawberryroad1347]

First time I have seen it (connect) set up this way. 😀

[@tedman2786]

great!

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

cheers for that

[@donnataliercio7080]

Best then I've seen

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

thank you very much…

[@timmullins2929]

cool set up best one ive seen so far

[@pmfilmsUK]

Genius

[@redvolksride]

nice

[@sshaw4429]

Sweet.

[@Entropy10101]

A well thought out plan, woefully underpowered, but...talk to me after living in the van full time for a year. Is it well lived in, too?

[@bourdon845]

Cool

[@geraldineteggart3627]

Great wee motorhome can do what a big one can do, can go places that big motorhomes can go like car parks. I enjoy my wee jill which is 2016 citron small van. Did you do conversion yourself ? Happy days ahead and northern ireland is lovely to visit 😀

[@maarten_notjustagrip]

Ah Mate. Nice vid, nice van. One thing you Have to do is find yourself some shallower meat crates and drop your bed/couches for head height. It will TOTALLY change your experience. I bought a MB VANEO in Georgia in 2019 and toured in it. As a Tandem Paraglider pilot, it afforded me the independence I needed. I also had my bed too high to sit on and consequently lay on the bed more. Not great for the back. Once I dropped the bed for headspace I could sit and work on my computer, or watch a movie. I like that roof box too. With a little ingenuity, that could easily be a single bed.

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

thanks for the tip mate…

[@maarten_notjustagrip]

@@akiwiinswitzerland6214 No worries mate. Im definitely heading back to Georgia in spring. Will also buy another van. Possibly a little bigger this time, although a tiny truck camper on a Suzuki Carry 4x4 sounds fun. An UAZ Buhanka would take the cake. Where could I send some pics of my van?

[@placestosea]

great setup, do you have any trouble finding camp spots in Switzerland? we hope to get back there again in the future. a long way from Australia, at the moment.

[@lesvoyagesdelouis6574]

Joli !

[@opsman270]

where did you get your table hardware love vid

[@alanwestport]

Nice rig. Did you consider putting in a P trap or similar for your gray water tank? Do "smells" make it back into the cabin?

[@mjremy2605]

Remarkable use of this tiny space. Very well made. Love the cabinets! I see a dock floating in the lake. Was it warm enough to swim in that lake? Such beautiful scenery! Are these campgrounds free in Switzerland? Do you get any power, showers, toilets, water, trash bins at campgrounds?

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

Yes it was!

[@forgottenknowledge8917]

Put taller tyres on it. I run 195/80r15 for ground clearance when camping

[@that_uk_guy]

Cracking work, what brand is your awning? I'm in the market for one and it looks great.

[@ilovstodance]

so nice here inCabada this van cst a lot i ant to do this so bad thks

[@jannah4288]

Wow, that's awesome. Great use of the space. It looked so big too, until you sat in it and gave us a visual to its actual size in there. What about your clothes and such?

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

Thanks for your positive comments. We just take two small backpacks with our clothes in them, then transfer them to the front seats which turns into our wardrobe. We have also place above the driver and passenger headspace where we can store Jackets and clothes.

[@jfthiesen2947]

Here YOU have the Problem s of All VAN - LIFERs have, the daily ...waste, the Parking-Stress , the Best SPOT now.....the goverment / the POLICE, ...some crazy people ...etc. ......ame in a van❗️👍❗️❣️❗️👍❗️

[@darryltunesi2131]

Thanks for sharing the details of your MicroVan. I'm interested in where you got the table attachment extrusions (I'm In France so would appreciate a European supplier)?

[@jacquelineludtke1031]

Hallo. Sehr schön gemacht. Was habt ihr für eine Markise am Auto verbaut? Und wie habt ihr diese angebracht? Ich suche für meinen kleinen Camper noch eine Markise bzw. ein ausziehbares Dach. Könnt ihr das bitte verlinken. Vielen lieben Dank und weiterhin gute Fahrt. Jacky aus Berlin

[@tooyoungtobeold8756]

Lovely van, shame about the roof height though. Maybe get a pop top fitted?

[@akiwiinswitzerland6214]

pop top would be great….

[@emmanueledelpiano]

very intersting. i'm intersted in video how to do. More specific, i'm intersted in electrical system and connected stuff

[@musoto8888]

How much did u spent? Car a part. Such a great job!

[@tomaszpikula9686]

Hello What water tanks were used??? Can you give a link???

[@marcellamariani2175]

My ideas as well

[@cyberi4a]

There is a lot in there for a small van.

[@abbasharun4525]

👍👌✋

[@Pedro-zi6nt]

How many meters have the bed open?

[@debraderoos5225]

Where do you keep your clothes?

[@tomeczek804]
