Converting a Van With No Experience - Start to Finish Timelapse

1 year ago
45

In 2021 I decided to get myself an old Mercedes Sprinter to convert it into my own tiny home on wheels ready to live off-grid. I have no experience in DIY projects, but I have a big passion for traveling and building stuff, and a van seemed like the perfect combination of both. Join me as I build this van and learn anything from woodworking, electricity and even plumbing. Can't wait for van life!
