After deciding to leave her career as an elementary school teacher and embrace a new life as a full-time yoga instructor, Emily made the leap to downsize and live on the road. From surviving the cold winter months in her camper to making healthy meals with minimal space, Emily provides an inside look into her cozy and efficient truck camper setup.Tour of the Truck Camper Interior: Emily takes us through her kitchen, showcasing how she makes the most of her compact space with essential tools like a rice cooker and air fryer. With 20 gallons of fresh water, she emphasizes the importance of conserving water for dishes and overall efficiency. She also highlights her propane-powered fridge, which runs for two weeks on a single 5-gallon propane tank, allowing for off-grid living for extended periods.Living Off-Grid in a Tiny Space: Emily discusses the mental health challenges that led her to this lifestyle change and how living in the truck camper and pursuing her yoga practice helped her find peace and balance.

In this video, they share their bus conversion experience, from a 14-inch roof raise to creating a modern, minimalist living space perfect for entertaining, cooking, and hitting the road.A Spacious Tiny Home Kitchen for Entertaining: The kitchen in their converted bus is the largest Brad and Dona have ever had. With quartz countertops, a large sink, and plenty of counter and drawer space, the kitchen is designed for hosting family and friends.

Their custom-built table folds out to seat multiple guests, and the couch easily converts into a full-size bed with extra storage underneath. The natural light from the large windows, combined with the rustic-modern design featuring black, gray, and wood tones, creates a cozy yet stylish atmosphere.Smart Storage & Functional Design: One of the highlights of their tiny home is the abundant storage, from pullout pantry shelves to toe-kick drawers in the kitchen. The bathroom features a unique black walnut vanity with a resin-poured top, a carved granite sink, and a simulated wood porcelain tile shower.

With thrifty decor, including handmade items from her grandmother, Alyssa has created a cozy and personalized home that reflects her retro-inspired style with brown, orange, and yellow tones.Travel Inspiration & Empowerment for Solo Female Travelers Alyssa’s passion for travel started long before van life—she’s backpacked across 27 countries and loves National Park hopping.

Nicole shares the story of how she designed, built, and now lives in her van with her dog, Lemon. With practical tips, personal insights, and a detailed look at each part of the van, this tour provides inspiration and guidance for women seeking independence, adventure, and a minimalist lifestyle on the road.The Kitchen: Cooking in ComfortNicole’s passion for cooking played a major role in the design of her kitchen. She prioritized having ample counter space, utilizing every inch of her camper van efficiently. Equipped with a three-burner stove and oven combo, she ensures she can prepare homemade meals wherever she goes. To maintain a clutter-free environment, Nicole has designed custom storage solutions for all her cooking utensils, spices, and pantry items. One of her favorite features is the recessed spice rack, built into the wall to make use of otherwise wasted space. A full-sized refrigerator and freezer allow her to store enough food for weeks off-grid, making it easy to maintain her off-grid lifestyle.Smart Storage and OrganizationFor anyone looking to live in a camper van, storage is key, and Nicole has this aspect down to a science. She shares how she has utilized hidden drawers, custom closets, and even a full-length wardrobe to keep her clothes and essentials neatly organized. She emphasizes the importance of downsizing, something that van life has encouraged her to do.

While she admits that converting the bed back and forth can sometimes be a hassle, she appreciates the flexibility it offers for working and relaxing in different spaces. Her van is fully equipped for all seasons, with plenty of storage for winter and summer clothes in the overhead cabinets and under-bench compartments. She even added a clever solution for storing her fishing rod under the benches.Electrical System for Off-Grid LivingNicole explains the details of her electrical system, which includes a 3,000-watt inverter, two 100-amp lithium batteries, and two 90-watt solar panels. This setup allows her to stay off-grid for extended periods, and the alternator charger ensures her batteries stay powered while driving.

Living Off Grid in a Yurt: Our Familys Tiny Home & Homestead Tiny Home Tours 2024-09-27 | Their Social Media Links:Their Instagram - instagram.com/feelslikehomesteadTheir Facebook - bit.ly/47zq5gHTheir YouTube - bit.ly/3N9sO7rInterested In Being Featured On The Channel? : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationVIDEO DESCRIPTION:In this video, Cody and Jo provide a detailed tour of their off-grid homestead, where they live in a yurt with no running water or grid electricity. They share the many rewards and challenges of living in a tiny home while raising a family, focusing on self-sufficiency, creativity, and resourcefulness.Life in a Yurt: Off-Grid Living for FamiliesLiving off the grid has been a dream for Cody and Jo, and they have made it a reality by moving their family into a yurt. With no electricity or running water, they’ve designed a lifestyle that brings them closer to nature and each other. The video walks viewers through their unique home setup, from the cozy wood-burning stove that heats their home to their outdoor freezer and creative solutions for everyday tasks.Functional Kitchen Design for Off-Grid LivingIn the kitchen tour, Jo explains how they manage cooking and food storage without the modern conveniences most families are used to. They use a gas camp stove to prepare meals and rely on a mini fridge and cooler system to keep perishable items fresh. The kitchen is compact, but well-organized, with shelves added over the last year to maximize counter space. It’s a great example of how to make the most out of limited space in an off-grid home.Warmth and Comfort: The Heart of the YurtThe family’s wood stove is a crucial element in their off-grid lifestyle. It serves as their primary source of heat during the colder months and even provides running hot water. Jo explains how they utilize the abundant wood from the surrounding forest, keeping their home warm and cozy through the harsh winters. The yurt’s simple, rustic charm is on full display as they share how the fireplace adds a sense of ambiance and connection to their home.Raising Chickens and Growing Food: Homestead LivingOne of the highlights of living off the grid is having the space to raise animals and grow food. Cody and Jo's family is raising meat chickens and laying hens, which provide them with fresh eggs daily and compost for their garden. They’ve recently expanded their flock, and they talk about the joy of gathering eggs in the morning and working toward self-sufficiency on their homestead.Creating Family Bonds in a Tiny HomeWhile living in a tiny space can be a challenge, Cody and Jo emphasizes how much closer it has brought the family. With children sharing a bunk room and no extra room to spread out, they’ve found a deeper sense of connection and teamwork. Jo shares how each child has their own space within the yurt and how living in a small house is a trade-off for the immense freedom they enjoy on their five-acre homestead.Planning for the Future: Building a Permanent HomeAs their family grows, so does the need for more space. Cody talks about the family’s plans to build a larger home on their property, with a 30x30 house in the works. Although the yurt has served as their temporary home, they look forward to expanding while continuing to live off the grid and maintain their connection with nature.Homesteading with Kids: A Family AdventureFrom gathering eggs to helping with chores, Cody and Jo's children are learning valuable life skills on the homestead. The family shares how much they’ve enjoyed moving to the country, where their children have the freedom to play in the woods and learn hands-on homesteading skills.Challenges and Rewards of Off-Grid LivingThe video also covers some of the challenges the family has faced, such as dealing with condensation issues in the yurt, making repairs, and the occasional inconvenience of living without modern amenities. Despite these challenges, they firmly believe that the benefits of their lifestyle far outweigh the sacrifices.Filmed by - instagram.com/theaveragebradEdited by - instagram.com/filmbro_TINY HOME TOURS LINKS:Subscribe - youtube.com/c/TinyHomeToursFacebook - facebook.com/Tinyhome.toursInstagram - instagram.com/tinyhometoursNewsletter : bit.ly/THT-NewsletterPodcast : http://bit.ly/THT-PodcastApply for a tour : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationLIFE ON THE ROAD IN A SKOOLIE LINKSLife On The Road In A Skoolie Newsletter : http://bit.ly/OGSN-SignupSubscribe For Life On The Road Videos : http://bit.ly/OffGridSkoolieSubscribe

With the help of Kevin, Rob, and Signature Solar, their off-grid dream is coming to life as they build out a robust electrical system that will allow them to stay powered up for extended periods on the road. If you're planning to build your own RV or tiny home, this video is full of insights and pro tips to help you get started!Massive Off-Grid Power System Installation by Signature Solar: Abe and Mel are serious about living off-grid, so they partnered with Signature Solar to install a high-powered electrical system. Their setup includes two EG4 lithium batteries (800 amp-hours total), a 3000-watt Victron Quattro inverter, and 1000 watts of Signature Solar Grape Solar Panels mounted on the roof. This allows them to run their RV's electrical system—complete with outlets, USB ports, and appliances—without being tied to shore power. Additionally, they’ve installed a second alternator to charge the batteries while driving, giving them extra freedom to travel wherever they want, whenever they want.Running Wires & Planning Outlets: After installing the cabinets, Abe and Mel begin running wires throughout the truck for easy access and future maintenance. They've planned carefully to include outlets at key spots, like their desk, dresser area, and kitchen, ensuring they have power for working remotely, charging devices, and running their appliances.Comprehensive Plumbing System for Full-Time Travel: Water is a key resource for any full-time traveler, and Abe and Mel have set up a system designed for reliability. Their 42-gallon freshwater tank is paired with a SeaFlo 3.0 GPM water pump and water accumulator to provide steady pressure throughout the RV. They’ve also installed a water drop filter to ensure clean water, no matter where they fill up. The system is designed to switch between releasing gray water directly or into a gray water tank jug for easy emptying.Hydronic Water Heater & Efficient Heating System: For the first time, they’re using a hydronic water heater and heating system recommended by Rob. This system uses coolant from the truck’s engine to heat water and air, making it highly energy-efficient. The heated coolant circulates through a heat exchanger, providing instant hot water for their sink and shower. Additionally, it doubles as a heater for the living space during colder months, pulling minimal power and fuel.Shower Install & Vinyl Sheet Flooring: The RV features a dedicated shower area—something not always included in smaller builds. Kevin constructs the shower walls, and instead of using traditional tile, Abe and Mel opt for a simple and effective red guard membrane with vinyl sheet flooring. This method is budget-friendly and waterproof, and the black and white design adds a modern touch. To top it off, they install a matte black shower head and valve, which ties into the overall sleek aesthetic of the build.Ogo Composting Toilet: Abe and Mel also install the Ogo Origin composting toilet, a huge upgrade from previous models they’ve used. It features an electric turner for composting material and a waterproof cover, allowing them to keep it in the shower without needing to remove it. This simple system is perfect for full-time living and off-grid adventures.Custom Bathroom Door & Final Design Touches: Kevin wraps up this episode by building a stunning custom bathroom door made from pine boards, inspired by a door Abe and Mel saw in the Northeast. The rustic, stained wood complements the modern aesthetic, creating a beautiful focal point for the interior. With all the utilities installed and the bathroom coming together, their off-grid expedition truck is truly turning into a home.Next Time on Tiny Home Tours Truck Build: In the next episode, Abe and Mel tackle the final punch list—installing the feature wall, loading up the motorcycles, and completing the last few touches on their incredible tiny home on wheels.

With the bathroom door installed, electrical system set up, and plumbing running smoothly, it's time to tackle the highly anticipated feature wall and finish the motorcycle garage—two key elements of their full-time living setup. If you're considering building your own custom RV or expedition vehicle, this video is packed with expert tips, design ideas, and practical advice to help you create the off-grid home of your dreams.Feature Wall Design Inspired by Norwegian Churches: Abe and Mel were inspired by the cedar shake shingles seen on Norwegian churches and have adapted the design for their feature wall. They sourced kiln-dried planks from WoodPlank.com, ensuring durability as they travel through various climates. By cutting the planks at 60-degree angles and staining them in golden oak and black, they’ve achieved a modern, rustic aesthetic that ties the entire interior design together. This unique feature wall adds character and warmth to their truck home.Motorcycle Garage & Removable Bed System: For the garage area, Abe and Mel opted for vinyl sheet flooring—an affordable and durable alternative to traditional garage flooring—allowing them to allocate funds toward other areas of the build. The garage is fully dedicated to storing their motorcycles, a priority in this build. Above the garage is a removable bed system, constructed with aluminum square tubing and 2x4s for support. This system maximizes storage space while providing a cozy, stationary sleeping area with a Zinus Green Tea memory foam mattress.Pass-Through Installation for Safety: They also installed a pass-through between the cab and the box for emergencies, using an accordion boot to connect both spaces without compromising the structure of the truck. This feature ensures they can safely move between the cab and living area whenever needed.Capping Off the Build with High-Tech Comfort: In terms of comfort, the couple installed a multimedia system from CarpuRide that includes Bluetooth, CarPlay, and a wireless backup camera. This plug-and-play system enhances their driving experience, providing convenience on the road while making their travels more enjoyable.Stylizing & Final Touches: The final stage of the build focuses on styling and finishing touches. Abe and Mel added custom shelves, completed the painting, and brought in decor to give their home a cozy, personalized feel. The minimalistic black, gray, and wood tones blend beautifully with green plant accents, creating a modern rustic vibe throughout the living space.TINY HOME TOURS LINKS:Subscribe - youtube.com/c/TinyHomeToursFacebook - facebook.com/Tinyhome.toursInstagram - instagram.com/tinyhometoursNewsletter : bit.ly/THT-NewsletterPodcast : http://bit.ly/THT-PodcastApply for a tour : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationLIFE ON THE ROAD IN A SKOOLIE LINKSLife On The Road In A Skoolie Newsletter : http://bit.ly/OGSN-SignupSubscribe For Life On The Road Videos : http://bit.ly/OffGridSkoolieSubscribe

After installing their Nomadic Cooling A/C unit, Tern Overland windows, and upgrading the truck's exterior, they now turn their attention to the interior build-out. If you're looking for inspiration for building your own custom RV or tiny home, this episode is packed with valuable tips, from cabinetry to flooring and everything in between.Interior Build Begins: Insulation, Walls, and Ceiling Starting with the basics, Abe and Mel install insulation, furring strips, and walls to prep their rig for full-time living. They’ve opted for 3M Thinsulate insulation, sourced from Vanlife Outfitters, which provides great R-value without retaining moisture like wool does. For the ceiling, they chose shiplap tongue-and-groove boards from Woodplank.com, pre-primed and ready to be painted black to match the sleek, modern design of the truck’s interior.Cabinet Installation & Maximizing Space The real magic begins with the cabinetry installation. Kevin, their master carpenter, starts with the desk, couch, and electrical cabinet area, carefully designing this key feature to maximize storage and functionality. With every inch in a tiny home being precious, adjustments are made on the fly to ensure ease of access and utility—like creating removable panels for electrical components.They’ve chosen lightweight plywood to keep the build efficient, with ¾-inch pieces for the lower cabinets. One standout is the 8-cubic-foot ThetordRV Norcold DC fridge, a 12V unit that seamlessly integrates with their electrical system. It offers ample room for fresh food storage without being too bulky for the space, and the matte black finish fits perfectly with their dark, minimalistic design.Custom Kitchen Cabinet & Water System In the kitchen, the cabinets are not only designed to store food and utensils but also house the truck’s water system. One side holds a water tank, accessible from the exterior through a cargo door, while the other side features drawers for an induction cooktop and additional kitchen storage. This functional layout ensures that everything has its place, making life on the road as smooth as possible.Countertop Design & Challenges Finding the perfect countertop was a challenge. After experimenting with different options, Abe and Mel stumbled upon an edge-glued pine board from Menards that perfectly matched the look they were going for—natural, warm, and full of character. Paired with flooring polyurethane for durability, the countertops are the ideal finishing touch for their stylish kitchen.Sleek Black A/C & Custom Ceiling The black Nomadic Cooling A/C unit blends seamlessly with the dark ceiling, providing a high-end, sleek look. The unit's directional vents ensure airflow throughout the rig, crucial for Mel's heat-induced migraines, making this feature an essential addition to their full-time living setup. The ease of installation and energy efficiency make it a perfect choice for this build.Final Touches: Gas Struts, Drawer Slides & Flooring As the cabinets come together, the attention to detail is evident. Kevin installs black AOLISHENG 24-inch drawer slides for smooth operation and modern aesthetics, while Apexstone gas struts are added to upper cabinets for easy access. For the flooring, they choose LifeProof Scratch Stone Flooring, known for its durability and ease of installation, ensuring that their floors can withstand life on the road.Next Time on Tiny Home Tours Truck Build: In the next episode, Abe and Mel will install their Signature Solar system, plumbing, and complete their gorgeous bathroom. Don’t miss the final stages of this incredible transformation as their custom expedition truck becomes a full-fledged tiny home on wheels!TINY HOME TOURS LINKS:Subscribe - youtube.com/c/TinyHomeToursFacebook - facebook.com/Tinyhome.toursInstagram - instagram.com/tinyhometoursNewsletter : bit.ly/THT-NewsletterPodcast : http://bit.ly/THT-PodcastApply for a tour : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationLIFE ON THE ROAD IN A SKOOLIE LINKSLife On The Road In A Skoolie Newsletter : http://bit.ly/OGSN-SignupSubscribe For Life On The Road Videos : http://bit.ly/OffGridSkoolieSubscribe

They opted for Tern Overland windows and doors due to their top-notch features and durability.

Tern Overland’s screens and blackout features make these windows perfect for both privacy and ventilation.Custom Cargo Doors & Innovative Storage Solutions: Wess from Darkwolf Artisans and his team install custom cargo doors on both sides of the truck, providing easy access to important utilities like the RV water inlet and gray water tank, along with a unique storage solution for adjustable weights. These heavy-duty, insulated doors not only ensure easy access but also offer excellent waterproofing for the rugged lifestyle of an expedition vehicle.Torklift GlowStep Revolution & Roof Layout: To make getting into their raised rig easier, Abe and Mel install Torklift International’s GlowStep Revolution, a set of durable, removable steps that are compact and adjustable depending on the campsite terrain. They also plan out the roof layout, making space for key features like a 12V Nomadic Cooling air conditioner, multiple Grape Solar Panels, and a MaxxAir fan—all mounted on a custom aluminum extrusion roof rack. This setup minimizes roof penetrations while maximizing functionality, ensuring the truck is equipped for full-time living in any climate.Rugged Exterior & Stylish Accessories: For a sleek, off-road look, the couple adds some finishing touches, including a custom roof rack, all-terrain tires, and traction boards. They’ve partnered with Melipron to install a new cargo case on the cab roof and added a 42-inch light bar from Nilight for enhanced visibility during late-night camp arrivals. This build combines practicality with rugged aesthetics, perfect for adventurous expeditions.Upgrading the Wheels & Tires: Abe and Mel decided to switch from the Ford F550’s standard 19.5-inch wheels to a new set of 20-inch wheels from Dually Design Co, which allows them to run all-terrain tires without any modification to the rig. This decision not only enhances the vehicle's off-road performance but also gives it the tough, expedition-style look they’ve envisioned.From cutting windows to installing new wheels, this episode covers the critical exterior transformation that will take this truck from a basic box to an adventure-ready RV.

Living Full Time in this Spacious Truck Camper RV Tiny Home Tours 2024-09-10 | Their Social Media Links:Their Instagram - instagram.com/courtandmegzInterested In Being Featured On The Channel? : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationVIDEO DESCRIPTION:In this video, Megz and Court invite viewers into their full-time home on wheels—a 100-square-foot truck bed camper. This detailed tour is perfect for anyone considering living in a small travel trailer or those interested in the idea of downsizing and embracing a minimalist lifestyle on the road. Megz and Court share how they’ve adapted to life in a compact space and offer practical tips for making the most out of every square inch.Kitchen and Cooking AreaThe kitchen is the heart of Megz and Court’s camper, and it’s easy to see why. Despite the small space, they’ve managed to create a fully functional cooking area that feels just like home. The camper’s original kitchen setup from 2001 has been cosmetically upgraded with peel-and-stick countertops, tiles, and freshly painted cabinets. They’ve added practical touches like a magnetic knife block and spice holders, as well as a compact trash bin to maximize efficiency. With a three-burner stove and an oven, they can prepare most of their meals on the road, preserving their propane by opting to cook on the stovetop rather than using the oven. The kitchen’s large windows provide stunning views, making cooking in beautiful, remote locations even more enjoyable.Dining and Living SpaceThe U-shaped dinette serves as the camper’s dining room, living room, and workspace. This area is central to their daily routine, offering plenty of room for both Megz and Court to work remotely while also doubling as a cozy spot for meals and relaxation. The table is covered with the same peel-and-stick butcher block as the kitchen, creating a cohesive look. The overhead cabinets above the dinette are used for storage, housing everything from clothes to electronics and their Starlink setup. They’ve also made practical use of space by converting part of the dinette into a sleeping area for their dog, Ka, ensuring everyone has their own space to rest.Bedroom ComfortIn the bedroom, Megz and Court have a standard RV queen-sized mattress, which fits comfortably within the space. Storage is plentiful, with mirrored closets on either side of the bed for hanging clothes, and additional space for seasonal items. They’ve added personal touches to make the space feel more like home, including a monitor for watching shows on rainy days. Above the bed is an emergency hatch, which not only provides airflow but also offers access to the walkable roof, perfect for stargazing on clear nights.Practical Bathroom SetupThe camper’s wet bath is both functional and compact, featuring a flushing toilet and a shower. They’ve made small but impactful upgrades, such as peel-and-stick tiles and a new shower head, which greatly improves their shower experience. The shower curtain can be pulled around to protect the toilet area, ensuring the entire space remains practical and easy to clean. Despite its small size, the bathroom meets all their needs for full-time living on the road.Exterior Features and Off-Road CapabilitiesMegz and Court highlight the camper’s impressive off-road capabilities, which are essential for their adventurous lifestyle. The fiberglass exterior is built to withstand harsh weather, and the stable lift system allows them to easily detach the camper from the truck, making maintenance and setup a breeze. The camper is equipped with a 30-amp plug-in, and while it doesn’t have solar power, they carry a 3500W generator to power their AC unit and recharge batteries. The outdoor shower is perfect for washing their dog after hikes, and the ample storage space outside the camper allows them to carry all the essentials they need for life on the road.The Journey to Full-Time TravelMegz and Court share their journey from conventional lifestyles to living full-time in a truck bed camper. They discuss the importance of not letting social norms or the pressure for perfection prevent anyone from starting their own adventure. For them, the key to making this lifestyle work is communication and enjoying the journey together. They encourage viewers to focus on the experiences and freedom that come with this lifestyle, rather than getting caught up in having the perfect setup.Shot by - instagram.com/theaveragebradEdited by - instagram.com/filmbro_TINY HOME TOURS LINKS:Subscribe - youtube.com/c/TinyHomeToursFacebook - facebook.com/Tinyhome.toursInstagram - instagram.com/tinyhometoursNewsletter : bit.ly/THT-NewsletterPodcast : http://bit.ly/THT-PodcastApply for a tour : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationLIFE ON THE ROAD IN A SKOOLIE LINKSLife On The Road In A Skoolie Newsletter : http://bit.ly/OGSN-SignupSubscribe For Life On The Road Videos : http://bit.ly/OffGridSkoolieSubscribe

She Downsized into a 399 Sq Ft Tiny House - On Her Own & Thriving Tiny Home Tours 2024-08-30 | Her Social Media Links:Her Instagram - instagram.com/yolo_bungalow_park_model_lifeInterested In Being Featured On The Channel? : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationVIDEO DESCRIPTION:Transitioning to tiny living was a new concept for Tamara, but it has become one of the most rewarding decisions of her life. As a woman approaching retirement, the thought of downsizing from a 3,000-square-foot home to a cozy 399-square-foot park model seemed daunting at first. However, the sense of freedom, simplicity, and the ability to truly personalize her space has made this tiny home a perfect fit for her new chapter. Join her as she takes you on a tour of her home, sharing the unique features and thoughtful design choices that have made this space not only functional but also a true reflection of who she is.Creating a Spacious Living Room in a Tiny HomeWhen Tamara designed her living room, she prioritized space and comfort. Despite the limited square footage, she chose a floor plan with a bump-out window, which allowed her to push the sofa back and create more floor space. This small upgrade made a significant difference, making the living room feel open and inviting. Her furnishings are a hodgepodge of pieces she has collected over the years, each with its own story and character. For example, an old student desk found at a yard sale adds a touch of nostalgia and charm to the room. Every detail in this space, from the furniture to the decor, was chosen to create a relaxing atmosphere that helps Tamara unwind and embrace her new tiny lifestyle.A Tiny Kitchen with Big FunctionalityDownsizing didn’t mean compromising on Tamara’s kitchen needs. Coming from a large home with a spacious kitchen, she doesn’t miss it at all. In her tiny home, she was able to fit full-size appliances, including a double sink, a five-burner gas stove with an oven, a full-size refrigerator, and even a microwave. The kitchen is designed to be both functional and social. The counter space allows her to entertain guests while she cooks, and she made smart storage choices to maximize efficiency. For example, she stores cups on the outside of cabinets for easy access and uses an over-the-sink dish dryer to save counter space. Every inch of this kitchen was thoughtfully planned to meet her needs without sacrificing comfort or style.Innovative Storage Solutions in the BathroomThe bathroom in Tamara’s tiny home is a model of efficiency. With creative storage solutions like an over-the-toilet rack and a small organizer, she has made the most of the limited space. The decision to opt for a shower instead of a bathtub allowed her to include a linen closet, providing much-needed storage for towels and other essentials. The bathroom also features a washer and dryer, which was a must-have for her. Despite the small footprint, this bathroom has everything she needs, carefully arranged to keep the space clutter-free and functional.Loft Living: A Cozy RetreatThe loft in Tamara’s tiny home was an unexpected delight. Initially, she wasn’t sure how she would use the space, but it has become a cozy retreat, especially during the colder months. The loft features a drop-floor design, providing extra headroom and making it a comfortable place to relax. Tamara has added a recliner and a TV, making it the perfect spot to unwind with a book or watch a movie. The loft also serves as a guest space when family members visit, offering them a private area to stay. Her ukulele collection is also housed up here, where she can keep an eye on them and ensure they remain in good condition.The Perfect Tiny BedroomThe bedroom in Tamara’s tiny home is a peaceful haven designed for rest and rejuvenation. She opted for a queen-size bed with storage options above and below, ensuring that she has ample space for all her belongings. The builder offered a drop-down bedroom option, which she chose to provide more headroom in the loft above. This thoughtful design element makes the bedroom feel more spacious and comfortable. Tamara has also added personal touches, like a tiny ironing board and a bookcase, to make the space truly her own. It’s a place where she can recharge and prepare for whatever the next day brings.TINY HOME TOURS LINKS:Subscribe - youtube.com/c/TinyHomeToursFacebook - facebook.com/Tinyhome.toursInstagram - instagram.com/tinyhometoursNewsletter : bit.ly/THT-NewsletterPodcast : http://bit.ly/THT-PodcastApply for a tour : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationLIFE ON THE ROAD IN A SKOOLIE LINKSLife On The Road In A Skoolie Newsletter : http://bit.ly/OGSN-SignupSubscribe For Life On The Road Videos : http://bit.ly/OffGridSkoolieSubscribe
The Most Innovative Camper Van You Have Ever Seen Tiny Home Tours 2024-08-27 | His Social Media Links:His Instagram - instagram.com/lucasravizzaHis Business Site - hoo.be/lucasravizzaInterested In Being Featured On The Channel? : http://bit.ly/Tour-ApplicationVIDEO DESCRIPTION:In this detailed video tour, Lucas Ravizza unveils "Odyssey," a custom-built van packed with innovative design features and high-end amenities. Lucas spent nine months meticulously crafting this van, ensuring that every inch serves a purpose while maintaining a sleek and functional aesthetic. Kitchen and Storage SolutionsLucas kicks off the tour by introducing the kitchen, a true marvel of space efficiency and thoughtful design. The centerpiece of this area is the set of French doors that serve as both a visual and functional highlight. These doors, fitted with a smart tint film, offer privacy with a simple click, transforming from transparent to opaque instantly. Behind these doors, Lucas stores his wine glasses, plates, and other essentials, making the most of every inch of space. The kitchen also features a KitchenAid air fryer, capable of baking, broiling, and toasting, making it an all-in-one oven solution for life on the road. Nearby, a hidden charger is cleverly integrated under the countertop, offering a convenient spot to power up devices without cluttering the workspace. The kitchen includes ample food storage, with upper cabinets, a dual burner induction cooktop, and a spacious Dometic 140L fridge, which can store up to two weeks of food.Advanced Heating and Power SystemsOne of the most impressive aspects of Odyssey is the full hydronic heating system known as "Rixen's." This system uses coolant from both the engine and a separate rear tank, offering a range of heating options, including air heat, heated floors, and instant hot water. The system is controlled by a simple interface that allows Lucas to preheat the engine on cold mornings, ensuring a smooth start without the wear of cold starts. The van is powered by a massive 1200 amp hour battery bank, capable of running high-demand appliances like the induction cooktop and air conditioning for extended periods.Shower and Bathroom SetupThe shower in Odyssey is another example of Lucas's attention to detail and design. Featuring a Moen shower head with a water flow of 1.5 gallons per minute, the shower ensures efficient use of the 42-gallon water tank. The bathroom also includes the Laveo Dry Flush toilet, a hands-off, no-compost system that is easy to manage, though it requires refilling cartridges. The shower space is beautifully finished with Italian tile, adding a touch of luxury to this compact area. A walk-through design allows the shower to serve as a passage between the main living area and the cab, optimizing the van's layout.Lounge and Sleeping AreasLucas has designed the lounge area to be both cozy and functional. Despite being smaller than in his previous builds, this space is perfectly tailored for relaxation. The bed, part of the Happy Jack system, is adjustable to different heights, allowing for flexible sleeping arrangements. Side capsules extend the sleeping space, accommodating Lucas’s 6'1" frame comfortably. The lounge also features a Lagoon table and multiple outlets, ensuring convenience and connectivity.Custom Flooring and Finishing TouchesThe flooring in Odyssey is a work of art in itself. Lucas custom-made each piece of the Chevron walnut floor, spending over 100 hours to ensure it was perfect. This level of craftsmanship extends to the Roman clay finish on the ceiling above the bed, giving the space a smooth, marbled effect that feels both luxurious and cozy.Electrical System and Off-Grid CapabilitiesOdyssey is equipped with a robust electrical system, including 1200 amp hours of lithium batteries, a 12-volt cruising comfort air conditioner, and 520 watts of solar power on the roof. This setup allows Lucas to live off-grid for up to two weeks, enjoying all the comforts of home while on the road. Lucas shares tips for managing the electrical system, including the importance of securing batteries, organizing cables, and ensuring proper ventilation to prevent overheating.Exterior and Garage SpaceThe van's exterior is just as impressive as the interior. With two ladders providing access to the roof, where the tent and solar panels are located, the van is ready for any adventure. The garage space, lined with neoprene for durability and water resistance, is spacious enough to store various gear, from bikes to snowboards.Shot by - instagram.com/miguel_barajasEdited by - instagram.com/abe.and.melTINY HOME TOURS LINKS:Subscribe - youtube.com/c/TinyHomeToursFacebook - facebook.com/Tinyhome.toursInstagram - instagram.com/tinyhometoursNewsletter : bit.ly/THT-NewsletterPodcast : http://bit.ly/THT-PodcastApply for a tour : http://bit.ly/Tour-Application

The design emphasizes simplicity and comfort, making the most of every inch of space.[Living and Dining Area]The living and dining area is versatile and functional, perfect for relaxing or entertaining guests. Their Ikea double drop-leaf table can accommodate up to eight people, and the couch converts into a full-size bed for additional sleeping space. They’ve maximized storage with built-in drawers and under-seat compartments, ensuring everything has its place.[The Garage & Outdoor Gear Storage]At the back of the bus, our garage area houses all their outdoor gear, including two electric bikes. It also serves as the hub for our solar power setup, with four 190-watt panels providing all the energy we need. They’ve designed this space to be practical and efficient, keeping everything organized and easily accessible.[Sustainable Living & Final Thoughts]Living in a skoolie offers a unique opportunity to embrace a simpler, more sustainable lifestyle.
