We’re Matt and Kristina, and we’re converting our ProMaster Van into a part-time home for us and our dogs so that we can take our off-grid lifestyle on the road. As a professional builder and engineer, we’re taking care to make our van conversion as sustainable as possible. Today we’re installing the kitchen cabinets and we’ll show you a clever way to build a floor to ceiling closet and a slide-out cabinet for a composting toilet.
