In part two, we want share the story of how we built a removable camping unit for our van. Not because we think it’s a work of genius, or a thing of beauty, but because we think something like this is (relatively) easily achievable for those of us who don’t have the ability, tools, time or funds to fully convert a van into a camper.

Last summer, after years of yearning, we finally bought a van and have been slowly fixing it up, making it adventure ready. We’ve received a fair few e-mails and comments about the vehicle and our progress so we thought we’d share as much as we can here on our logbook for anyone interested.
