On that journey, he fell upon someone living in their van, which planted a new seed for his next chapter! Once he returned, James bought an empty van and started his DIY conversion tiny home.  Being able to work from the road is a priority, so he designed the rig around a proper workspace, including a 27-inch monitor on a swivel mount. Instead of puck lighting, he installed strip lighting going down the center of the ceiling. He also created a hands-free shower using a foot pedal! The garage is accessed through the back and has a massive slide-out drawer holding his hiking gear, tools, and extra food.  Insta: https://www.instagram.com/jamestesmer/ Shot by: @jonlucandjackie Edited by: @filmbro_ 00:00 Introduction 00:32 Camper Van Kitchen 06:13 Why/How a Camper Van 07:51 Camper Van Office 09:48 Camper Van Bedroom 11:02 Pros and Cons of Vanlife 13:09 Camper Van Exterior 16:14 Making Money on the Road ______________________________BONUS CONTENT_____________________________________ Nature’s Head Toilet With Bonuses – http://bit.ly/NaturesHeadTHT Tiny House & Skoolie Build Gear – https://skooliecentral.com/gear/ Tiny Home Tours Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/Tinyhome.tours/ Tiny Home Tours Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/tinyhometours/ Life On The Road Newsletter – http://eepurl.com/gAyDP5 Want To See More Skoolie Videos? – https://skooliecentral.com/ Need Something On Amazon?

  1. Great build. Lovely, positive guy who turned a personal loss into a life changing journey. Congratulations and have fun achieving your five year goals.

    1. Thanks for watching, you are highly selected among the shortlisted candidates on the GIVEAWAY PACKAGE 📦 text me on Telegram to claim your prize 🎊

  2. Finally, a custom van made with unique ideas instead of the normal run-of-the-mill half naked woman showing us cutlery drawers.

    Love the solenoid shower, thats smart AF. Also love the fold-down cupboard inners for the mirror and future monitor. The rearview monitor is sick, too. I’ll be using these ideas for SURE.

  3. My only suggestion is to protect all those exposed connections at 14:23. All it takes is something metallic to shift while driving that shorts out some lugs, and the whole thing goes up in flames. Electricity is one of those things that is simple and inert until it blindsides you in catastrophic fashion. Waiting until fall is too long.

  4. It’s a beautiful build, but it’s dark for me. Great lighting wouldn’t be enough for me, I’d need everything to be white, although I think it looks better the way he has it. I like this guy’s personality, he’s very friendly and approachable.

  5. I have seen a ton of these videos and yours speaks to me in how honest you are and also how much thought you put into your build. Thank you. Any chance you could provide the information for pedal and solenoid for hands-free shower. I plan to do the same for the sink when washing dishes.

  6. Great setup. Consider adding a sink cover to increase your table top space. Also, keep your eye out for some more lifepo4 batteries
