Amazing! Looks so uncluttered, and organized! And like you guys have a lot of room still left! Inspires me to go further minimize my what now feels giant after watching this 1 bedroom apt....
Hey guys, love your van, love your lifestyle. Just wanted to leave a tip. If you rub a candle along the top/sides of your drawers they will slide in and out more easily. No more tugging 👍
since you have so much wood in there already, i would recommend having an artist (or yourself) paint the back side of the table you dont use that often! so it looks like a beautiful piece of artwork that doubles as useful!
The painting is beautiful! What a keep sake!! And better yet, done by a friend!!! Nice tour of the van! That van is so pretty...once again a friend did a beautiful job for you. I like to see a lot of natural wood inside the van builds & you sure have that! You guys be very careful & have a great time!! LOL Judie
This is so inspiring. I live in SF and I my rent is so expensive I can’t save up to buy a home. I’ve been considering living out of a van to get those dollar bills stacked up in my savings account! Nice work, thank you for sharing! 👍🏾🌈😃
You guys are rad. This video is rad. Thanks for being super real and sharing so many details about the lifestyle. I'm currently trying transitioning to the van life and vlogging the entire process. I probably won't be getting a high top because I can't afford it, but these videos are still super helpful. You definitely earned a subscriber. You've probably answered this before, but what do you guys do for a living?
Hi! I have been researching van conversion for months. Yours so far is the best I have seen, a combo of beauty and practicality. Where did you have the conversion done?
Thank you so much! We did it ourselves and the guy who did most of the actual work is a good friend of ours named Brett Lewis, owner or Chewy the Vanagon and more recently a Sprinter of his own. He is just starting to do other conversations for people around the country. Definitely hit him up and see if you might be interested in working with him. His Instagram is instagram.com/chewythevanagon/
You guys are so awesome! And it's crazy how fast your channel has blown up!! Quick question, what do you guys do for showering, gym membership? Also what about laundry, laundromat? Proud of you guys! Keep it up!
Dude thank you! You are so cool to keep encouraging us on so many videos. We are excited too. For showing, we have a gym membership at planet fitness but are typically with friends and family, plus we also have a camp shower for when we are remote. Laundry is the same situation - Laundromat when we need it but typically with friends
What a beauty and it looks cozy indeed. Do you know, where I can find the measurement of a regular sprinter van? It is my dream to build one myself and I've searched all of the www but couldn't find any detailed information.... so I would be very pleased if you could help me out.
best one I've seen so far! I'm trying to figure out how to make one even a bit simpler. It makes sense to use outside infrastructure for restrooms. Is this the long wheelbase?
You two are adorable! My husband and I are starting to look around for van layouts because we plan on doing a build in March. LOVE your van. Keep up the awesome videos :)
i like the look of all the wood better on this than what you have now. It feels fairly similar in function to what you have now and I am curious what you like better about your new design
the only big improvements I noticed are the laundry stool, the slide racks in the garrage, and the voltage differences, but it seems though things could have been added without a whole gutting.
You could vermicompost (composting with worms) one of the most efficient composting methods and it wouldn't take up much space or smell if you do it right!
Nice van build I really like your style and use of space. I don't know if you are going for the "stealth" look but if your not maybe you should paint it so it is not confused with other like vans... just a thought. I don't think my van will ever be confused with other vans cuz it's to different and I don't think there is another one like it still in existence. Again love your build!
Thanks! We have considered that but we are going for the stealth look. In most big cities we just stealth park and haven't had any trouble yet. Might customize the outside in the future but so far have enjoyed blending in a bit more.
Looks like you are figuring it all out. What do you do to protect all the glass items in your drawer? I would be a little concerned about it breaking with them next to each other. I am working on my Sprinter. Slow going but love the versatility.. Keep up the good work. Put out more videos and watch the subscribers pour in.
Thanks man! We have as little glass as possible to avoid that problem, plus most of our cabinets are amish styled so they don't slide out at all. Can be a little annoying sometimes but works great while driving to keep the dishes safe.
Hey Minimal Millennials! Love your van build! We are a couple getting ready for our van build! We are wanting to record our progress for family and friends, but are a little clueless where to start for editing our footage. What kind of program do you use to edit your video footage? Any tips? :)
You should plasti-dip some 80s-style lower "cladding" on your van in another color to look a bit less like a stalker van! $10 a can, super cheap, just tape off the sections you want and spray away.
Thanks man! We built it ourselves with a ton of help from our buddy Brett Lewis @chewythevanagon on instagram. We currently don't have a toilet in there.
I know this comment is way past when you did the video, and the van seems very cozy. How long is it? I saw my first RV show this weekend and I was disappointed because they only had 3 motorhomes under 22 feet long. I am wondering about the bathroom- shower and toilet... Side question: are you guys meeting up with Jordan and Kaylee on their European road trip? Thanks Dave
Your van is so well curated! You have just what you need but it doesn't seem lacking in any way OR stuffed full.
That's right! The neccesary stuff without any clutter.
**Christmas list 2001: barbies. Christmas list 2009: iTunes gift cards. Christmas list 2017: Fully loaded van.**
life pattern of millennials.
Seeing both of you living together are amazing. Spending the rest of your lives with your love ones. Take care always guys.
I LOVE how energy efficient y’all are and how much you respect the environment! ❤️
Amazing! Looks so uncluttered, and organized! And like you guys have a lot of room still left! Inspires me to go further minimize my what now feels giant after watching this 1 bedroom apt....
Thank you! It is super wonderful and roomy in there.
You made a lovely and cosy conversion, I wish you lots of happy travels with her.
His* name is Van Morrison. :P
One of the most attractive looking interiors I have seen.
The aesthetic is so cozy and purposeful. This is great!
Hey guys, love your van, love your lifestyle. Just wanted to leave a tip. If you rub a candle along the top/sides of your drawers they will slide in and out more easily. No more tugging 👍
Seems really cozy with a decent amount of storage. My only issue is a bathroom with smaller vans
since you have so much wood in there already, i would recommend having an artist (or yourself) paint the back side of the table you dont use that often! so it looks like a beautiful piece of artwork that doubles as useful!
Really stunning van. The conversation lols top notch and your design layout one of the best I have seen.
Thanks so much!
Awesome use of space and craftsmanship :) I loved the picture of you two over the sink.
I think this is my favorite conversion. Permanent bed and kitchen space are must for me x
Really awesome guys! I'm 21 and this seems like such a chill and exciting life to live at this age. Hopefully I can some day
The painting is beautiful! What a keep sake!! And better yet, done by a friend!!! Nice tour of the van! That van is so pretty...once again a friend did a beautiful job for you.

Isn't the painting so nice?! We love his stuff. He does some amazing live sketching around Chicago. Thanks again for the sweet comment!
Your van is awsome, you guys have done a great job! 😎 Love your inventive use of space, it actually looks quite spacious in there!
Your van is seriously goals! I am truly inspired.
Excellent video. Good camera work, editing, and great use of a wireless lav mic. If only others knew how much bad audio ruins a video.
Love it! It was definitely cool to see what it's like after being lived in for a while.
Beautiful simple clean and still cosy 👌 Good luck guys
Awesome van built, love it, enjoy the van and the travelling.
Best design I've seen yet
This is actually my favourite van I've found. 😍 It's really inspiring
Oh man, thank you so much!!
This is so inspiring. I live in SF and I my rent is so expensive I can’t save up to buy a home. I’ve been considering living out of a van to get those dollar bills stacked up in my savings account! Nice work, thank you for sharing! 👍🏾🌈😃
amazing you guys have it together and think outside the box.
One of my fave builds! So practical.
Love that garage! You guys really have fit everything you need in there!
The Not Busy Life garage? This thing is a van lol
Star Gaming the garage in the back...

Amazing van. Well planned and designed.
Really love the style you guys chose for your van interior design. I came from Eamon and Bec's page.
Thank you!
Love the interior! A lot of storage also! Looks great :)
love the Van. I hope to have something like this as a camper.
Love love love your van up! Wow! Gorgeous!

First I saw Vanna White, now it's Van Morrison. That's poetry at best.
Awesome build - thanks for sharing!
Cool van ,why can't people just live and let live.
Thanks man
The best couple on UA-cam.
This is so cool!! This makes me want to live in a van oml
As soon as I saw the mountains I knew you where guy where in Washington. I live in Seattle planing to covert a short bus and travel.
Love it. Keep us posted we'd love to see the build in action.
Very well thought out layout, I really like it!
Awesome van. Love the design... Goals

You guys are so awesome! And it's crazy how fast your channel has blown up!! Quick question, what do you guys do for showering, gym membership? Also what about laundry, laundromat?
Proud of you guys! Keep it up!

We love it too!
Hey Minimal Millennials! Love your van build! We are a couple getting ready for our van build! We are wanting to record our progress for family and friends, but are a little clueless where to start for editing our footage. What kind of program do you use to edit your video footage? Any tips? :)
Looks a lot like the inside of a boat!
Great van! Where did you get you stove top!? Love it!
It's a Baja Burner from Snow Peak. We totally love it, really good investment
You should plasti-dip some 80s-style lower "cladding" on your van in another color to look a bit less like a stalker van! $10 a can, super cheap, just tape off the sections you want and spray away.
Pretty place and van Hi From NC
Great Update!
Love the stove, any information on it or is there a link to purchase that exact stove.
looking good!!
Can you do a more detailed video about your sink/water pump system?
Good idea added to the list ;)
Hey guy cool van who built the inside bed and cabinets also what type of toilet do u guys have good luck and be safe
Thanks man! We built it ourselves with a ton of help from our buddy Brett Lewis @chewythevanagon on instagram. We currently don't have a toilet in there.
