Hannah Moore, who is 24, and Dan Spiers, 29, used to pay $1,440 a month for their apartment and utilities in London. They bought a van for $7,200 and spent an additional $13,200 to turn it into a home.
Now, they only spend $432 a month on bills. Both Hannah and Dan work in TV and film. They chose to live in the van because it allows them to travel more around the UK.
Van Conversion Details:
Hannah and Dan spent 7 months turning their long-wheelbase Mercedes Sprinter van into a cozy, mobile home. The van is set up to live off the grid, meaning it doesn’t need to be plugged in to use electricity.
It has two solar panels, a bathroom with a compost toilet and shower, a large water tank, and a complete kitchen with a gas stove and heater. A professional gas engineer made sure everything was installed safely.
In the past year, they’ve traveled all over the UK and Spain and had a great time. But now, they’re ready to start a new chapter and sadly have decided to sell their beloved van.
Van Features:
- The van has front seats that turn around, a big bed with storage underneath, and a large roof vent.
- It also has a roof rack, insulation throughout, plenty of storage space, and a white interior with wooden accents.
- For safety, there’s a CO2 detector, smoke alarm, fire extinguisher, and other emergency tools.
- The kitchen is well-equipped with a large fridge, an oven, and lots of storage.
- The bathroom includes a shower and a waterless toilet.
Technical Details:
- The van is filled with LED lights, has a powerful solar power system, and a heating system that works with both gas and electricity.
- There’s also a system to charge the power generator while driving.
