Van Life Builds
Needs. Desires. Imagination. Construction
Planning Your Build
Step one, watch hours upon hours of van life vlogs focused on van life builds. The creativity is endless. After a number of mind blowing builds the notion that almost anything is possible sets in.
After you realize the vast potential then the van lifer videos that discuss the pros and cons of their van builds are invalueable. The opportunity to bypass waste, disappointment, and frustration is connected to the time devouted to watching endless van build videos. I suggest watching until you feel slightly nauseous, like I have covered this so many times, but within the repitition are unique invalueable nuggets the others don’t have.
In addition to the YouTube videos are all the pictures on the various social sites, they are inspiring in terms of ideas.
I will be crafting a blog post about my own build and the reflections I have. I can say here, I spent a large numbers of hours watching and researching and it paid off.
