    The van conversion was what introduced me to your channel as I was looking to see what could be done with this size of vehicle. It's as good as I've seen tbh.
    Now I enjoy your travels and how you interact with eachother as well.
    I like the fact that, unlike most of the other channels I've dipped into, you don't seem to be constantly talking about getting a bigger/newer/more expensive van.

    Great van tour. I have converted my Renault Kangoo into a single person campervan with a similiar layout except I use the sofa as my single bed. Many people are surprised that I can sleep and eat very comfortably in it. Particularly on campsites when two people arrive in their massive double axle motorhome, then put up a similiar size awning and then get out all the accessories that go in it ! You are so refreshingly contented with what you have and part of the beauty is when you go to sleep at night, just before you turn out the light you can look at your brilliant van knowing it is all because of you. Love watching you two together. Take care.

    Also I just wanted to say, one of my favorite parts of your video was when one of you was holding the camera, and the other was explaining something… And the one holding the camera emitted an almost imperceptible sound of a little giggle, at something the other had done or said.
    So cute! 🤗

  • @daniellelaplace6455

    You show how each "van" is different from another and the most important is that it's perfect for those who live in. Heater, fridge, toilets, solar panels are so personal choices according with needs. I like how you seem comfortable in yours 😁

    I love the way your bed folds down and rests on the supports, if I ever put a bed into my Doblo I would do the same but I currently have no plans to sleep in it. My seats are taken out and I have a cabinet which holds all my stuff for fundraising at fairs etc., making tea and a toilet!

    I had a Doblo Hightop that my son-in-law converted to a basic camper: I loved it, but eventually I needed an automatic shift so had to sell it. I regret it to this day. However, I now have a Bongo that I've almost finished converting my self, ready for the adventure of a lifetime next year. Good luck with your travels.

A little hanging space behind the driver's seat, 4a few pretty dresses 👗 that I don't want 2 roll (I might want 2 go 2a nice restaurant), and I'm good to GO. I'm always fascinated 2c how much can be fitted into these little campers. Your is very CHARMING. 😊

    PS: for the warm shower in sunny days you can just put some water tank on the top and connect a hose when needed... you can't imagine how hot it can become the water with a bit of sun on it! (if needed you can use a dark tank, but I think any thank would suffice)

    I have 2 x 100 Watt Solar, but I have also a fridge box (35 Litres) .
    But to swing the panels gives a lot more output.
    I have a two flame cooker and a one flame cooker for using outside, and for backup.
    The one flame looks the same, as almost all using, with the gas cartridges . (227 grams)
    BUT mine has also a vent for to run it, with a gas bottle, etc.

    Fabulous video. Love your van. Well done. Really like your window shades. In the US, we have a sun shower. It’s a 5 gallon black plastic pouch with a shower head. You place the bag in the sun (roof) to warm up and it gives you warm water for your shower. Just bought a car fridge that runs on 12v or can be charged by the generator or 110v electricity. Very convenient. Good luck on your travels. Thanks for the van tour. 😊😊

    Yeh, I would say that is the best microcamper I have see and you two are a delightful couple and seem very happy together....and that's the main thing. We bought a Doblo in 2014 when became tired of the British weather, living on a boat on the Broads. We only had a blow up mattress and boxes, but toured Europe through 15 countries. That lead to us buying something bigger in 2015 to go house hunting in Portugal and bought a 08 Vivaro, which after a very simple conversion still have. We now have our place in the sun in central Portugal and travel throughout Europe, Recently.. Italy Greece, Turkey and Bulgaria.
    But you guys are younger and well set in your home, if you plan on coming to Portugal let me know, we would love to see you both, show you some good free park up.
    I wish you health and happiness, everything else is optional. Bonne chance..

      When your kids are small,there isn't much a problem,I took my daughter with my little van,now she's growing up and still want to go on trips.
      She asked if our next road trip would be Italy,she likes art
      But I'm thinking to put a roof tent on the car,to get some extra space,I bought trough the years also a ,bus tent,they are great but good if you stay at a camping spot for at least a day.
      At the moment,I'm rebuilding my van to get it a little more luxurious then before.

I've been looking at the VW Caddy but your Doblo looks great. I really love the colour and everything you've done to it. You've come up with some great ideas there and I feel inspired by what you've done with yours. Thanks for sharing.

    Awesome walkthrough. Am looking at a micro camper to tour uk and Europe. The ones in Australia have external awnings and more options for living outside the van . Avoiding getting cooking smells in everything. A 12v fridge on a slide out rail is also useful for cold drinks and keeping milk and meat cold .
