Hey! We’re Chris and Jessie and we’re making the best of this life by living out of our self converted Promaster Van. We have a passion for wellness, music, craft beer, and are dedicated to not taking ourselves too seriously. Our goal is to visit all 50 states, 63 National parks, countless breweries, and share our adventures with you!
One day, shortly after we started dating, Jessie mentioned she had the bucket list item to live in a van for a summer. Chris thought this idea was absolutely crazy at first, but after a little more thought and research, decided living in a van would be exactly the kind of excitement he would enjoy. We both love seeing new places, spending time outdoors, and don’t need a whole lot of physical things to be happy. In January 2019, after just 8 months of dating, we purchased our 2019 Ram Promaster and began converting it into our future tiny home. One year later, we finished the build and hit the road!
We’re excited to see where the road takes us and to share our adventures with you! Big thanks to all of you who have supported us and encouraged us to live out our #vanlife dream!

That's meant to he used on the back side. All you needed was the bondo fiberglass filler

Had the same thought. I have a giant crack in my hood, going to fiberglass the backside and bondo the outside. Thank you Acrovan Adventures for the video!

Hey Acrovaners, I noticed you’re in Fulton CO. I’m in Dekalb and would love to talk you about your build and where the site is where you did your build. I’m not sure how to get you my contact info so we might get connected.

Hey! We actually did our build in North Carolina at a storage unit. 🙃 So we don’t have a ton of good advice for the Atlanta area. But feel free to email us at [e-mail] if you have more questions!
