  • Noah and I are teaming up to build his tiny home on wheels in 6 weeks. We are combining out knowledge as nomads, van lifers, and travelers, to create the best design for his cargo trailer conversion.
    This is Part One.

    We are Linnea and Akela. Through the van build, I used my stubbornness and drive to show individuals that they, too, can convert a campervan by themselves and on a budget, with a lot of learning, rolling up the sleeves, and getting to work.
    Our goal is to inspire individuals to chase their dreams... to break from societal limitations and live the life they truly desire.

    So fun watching these guys!!! I'm 61 served 37 years in military, and they inspire me not to pay crazy RV prices, and create my own build. Great job guys. Love watching your adventures!!!

    It was nice of Akela to help with the markup
    so you knew right where to cut the board.
    She is an excellent apprentice.

    Your vlogs always seem so short because we have so much fun. Akela chasing rings around the trailer, goosing Noah and steal wood to chomp. And then we get into the trailer build. More to learn. Cheers from Canader eh!

    Omg your singing at the end was so cute. Also I know exactly what you were taking about when they want to think that they picked it out or think that they could sneak a piece away from you. It’s like the one you say they can chew on is not good enough for them.

    I was sorry to see that platform be taken out. I have seen a similar tailer that they made U shaped brackets that attached to the platform and had a rope/pulley set up and raised the platform all the way to the roof but would lower to proper height for it to become a bed. Made a nice bed and left a lot of space/room in the trailer when it was up.

I laughed so hard when you were in the snow walking talking about the weather and such, I was like I know that face. That is the WHY am I in the cold face haha.

    I enjoy watching your videos. Even though I'm in England it's like your there Infront of me. That's a real nice trailor Noah has. I like to watch builds & think what I would do. I'm a bit greedy I guess I would put patio doors on the back. Astro turf on the tail board and adjustable legs & a canopy of the back roof .Just to make the trailor 8 feet longer when I was parked up, so I had an eating sunbathing area. Maybe 1 day I will do a build. But for now I will watch your travels. You have such a close family even though travel around. Plus you & Akela are adorable. All the best in your build & always have safe good journeys.

    If I tried something like this with my brother or sister it would be bloodshed.
    Don't get me wrong, we love each other but we are all in our 60's, all very good at what we do but pretty set in our ways. I'm the one with the skills in this department but you just know how it would go...
    Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

  • @monicadelozadapadin7697
    @monicadelozadapadin7697 2 роки тому

  • @lbjackson5179

    You kinda worked backwards, you should of done the wiring and outside lights first, before you insulated so the wires could be between the outer wall and the insulation.

    • @Linneaandakela
      @Linneaandakela  2 роки тому +1

      Noah wants to be able to access the wires easily in case there are issues or additions in the future - this way he can do that!

    I don't get it. You're just going to leave insulation exposed to the elements below? Vibrations that will surely shake it out?

    nice job Linnea, it is nice to have family to help them and they can help you if you need them, these days family's drift apart do to this 24h days and have to little time with each other and we have to go back to the days where families helped each other and start a family business and work together, all this is in GOD s plan but people do not fallow it and that is why we have so much problems in this world any way till next time go with GOD and let him guide you in any path you take, like I all ways say "live free or die trying" your friend from Ontario, Canada. ;)

    When I work on projects with my brother he thinks he is the "big dog" and believes that I am the "little dog" .In fact he has been wrong all his life .In actual fact I am the big woof and he is the puppy. We have been arguing this for more than 20 years . Don't know brother sister dynamics .
