VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Antoinette has never been one to shy away from adventure. She moved to Spain in 2013 and started a successful international travel abroad company for minority teens and young adults. So when Covid-19 hit and she was forced back to the States, she attacked van life with that same gusto. Her luxury Dodge Promaster Van 1500 conversion, "Zion" is a must see. She had a professional builder help with the build and she made sure that all of her boxes were checked. Gold accents throughout the van and space for an air fryer make Antoinette feel right at home. One of the best parts of this tour is Antoinette discussing the community of van life, and how that helped her grow as a person. She also has great insight into being a woman of color and living tiny, so go and follow her on her socials. Thanks for sharing your home with us Antionette.

I’m heading this route. I’m also tired of “black folks don’t do” dictating my life. You go girl!!
Very true. It’s effective and efficient on so many levels. Absolutely love this.
Who says this?
@@MW-uk5ji You black? Cuz black people are quick to tell you we don’t camp, do extreme sports, etc 😂
@@nikkitalks4713 people are always quick to tell you you can't do something. It doesn't matter what race you are, it only shows who they are, not who you are.
@@MW-uk5ji People are quick to tell you individually what you can and cannot do. Here, we're talking about a collective. That's the primary difference you're ignoring.
One of the most aesthetically pleasing and practical vans I’ve seen on UA-cam.
I agree 100 percent! This is beautiful and warm and has just what you need in a small space.
You had me at the farmers sink.
I love your mission.
💯
Same! It’s beautiful 🤩
Now this is the first Van I’ve seen that I would use . She did this so beautiful and with all the things that you really need . Glamour and a shower and toilet love it . you rock girl ! Be safe out there .
I was thinking the same thing. Beautiful van!
exactly. this is the first van that i've seen that i would use.
I said that too. She had me with the full shower and kitchen.
What an absolute Queen. I'm in awe of this woman, her drive and initiative. I love that the van just feels like an extension of her personality.
A Queen? So she rules and is better than others? Well, I guess we know what happened to some Kings and Queens when they thought they were better than others
@@timeforchange3786 Stop being a jealous hater...smh.
"As you can see, I am on the glamorous side." LOVE IT.
Her van is an awesome build. I love her vibes. Post Covid I need that nomad life a bit. Great van! Following for sure!
that was my favorite part!
I love seeing people with showers and toilets! I don't understand not being able to get ready for the day in your own home!
I always have the same thought at these videos. And my first thought seeing the title of this one was “yes finally one that makes sense!” Lol
Love your van! You have decorated your van home beautifully!
So true!!! I don't understand why ppl prefer to have basics of hygiene outside of their home (?)
Exactly. And some proudly state they only shower once or twice a week 😟
Believe it or not, but you don't need to shower every day. Your skin will be healthier without it. And with my van I just shower by swimming in rivers and lakes.
I love that you have everything you would have in a house, I can’t imagine going without a shower and/or toilet. Ur van is hella fancy sis. Good job on the deco.
I LOVE this so much! This van literally ticks ALL the boxes. LOVE to see a glamorous woman on the road as well! It really all can be done 😍
I love seeing a black woman living this lifestyle, truly an inspiration!
I love seeing a human living this beautiful lifestyle!
Absolutely, such an inspiration 💪🏾
@@lifeisstrange2698 Oh shut up. You know what the commenter meant -- and we know what you mean.
@@lifeisstrange2698 😂
@@lifeisstrange2698 Racism is offensive.
“I believe travel is a necessity.” ❤️
Seeing a black woman in vanlife brings joy to my heart! You're maybe the second solo I've seen and the fifth overall. Enjoy your travels ma'am!
Here comes the "all lives matter" crowd lol
Where??
It’s not a regular occurrence so I get it. You can see just how many videos include black people vs those that don’t, so when you do see one and they’re happy, you feel that joy too lol
Don’t let these people dim that for you. They know what you mean.
@@RoarofdalioN in the post above this one, for example.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH GOD
That’s right ma’am! ALL LIVES DO MATTER!!!!
Love seeing a sis live this way independently and efficiently. My husband and I love the idea of this lifestyle. We said we would try it for a year.
Wow. She has the best van "tiny home" I have ever seen.
I agree!!
This is literally my dream home on wheels. She did everything perfectly I would just add a second bed for my daughter. I want this exact build!
What a d u m b comment
Thank you for sharing what you enjoy! Security is a big reason why I've hesitated from taking van life seriously, and seeing how you've made it possible, it's very encouraging for me.
I am a white woman and as soon as I saw you I thought to myself, I haven’t seen another black person do “van life” and traveling. I am so glad you address this and I love that you are living your best life the way YOU want. Not held back by ANY stereotypes/barriers.
Keep breaking barriers and
Keep living your best life❤️
What you do is so awesome. I traveled to Europe and the Orient as a young Black woman and learned that all people have the same wish. We all want the best for our friends and family. All people in the world have a lot in common. I wish you well and keep up the great work you are doing as a blogger and traveler. I am so proud of you!
Of course.. All people are of the same species
Would you like this if I traveled as a white woman or am Indian woman or a Latino woman. How come only black people get complimented if people say they have been abused for centuries. How can you insult this woman like this.
You make me think, I can do it!
@@cheri6174 it's called representation. It's nice seeing people who look like me, doing things that we aren't used to seeing in the mainstream media. And to be honest, yes, I love seeing solo women of all races living alternatively. You were the only one who brought bitterness and negativity. 🙄 Enjoy your day! ❤️❤️
@@kaneshap.6146 oh i definitely will enjoy my day. Being educated about people who make excuses make my smile.
This must be a mirage... I can hardly believe my eyes. In a word; gorgeous! Glam shower, fully-appointed kitchen, 2Die4 backsplash, standing fridge, & no propane! Storage, accessible controls/sensors, plush bedding, chic & stylish decor (the Chanel quilting, so extra!). There isn’t one square inch I would change. Kudos to you Antoinette! 🙌🏼 Best. Van. Ever.
Exactly Just Gorgeous I love the Design Decor All of it!❤😁💯👸🏾
Globally abroad sounds like a great tool for young minorities to help them expand their understanding of this marvelous world. Thanks you for sharing your life
Omg this is a phenomenal van! I didn’t think it was possible to get all this in that size of van! This def tops my fav layout I have EVER seen!!!!
Absolutely gorgeous home! Now, this is more my style. This reminds me of another van life I watched. The young lady had a hanging closet. She said, “Just because I live in a van, doesn’t mean I want to live like I’m homeless.”
As a women of color myself this was so uplifting to see. The van looks amazing! Thank you for your drive (pun intended). You are an inspiration.
Sara Persson I'm just curious & make it make sense to me is the actual WORD COLOR stamped on your birth certificate?
@@DRHIPWHIP uh wut? I'm black. What do you mean Eboni?
@@joemarks8548 what are you on about , she is uplifted by something you don’t normally see black folks specifically black women doing . It’s such a privilege to walk the world and not recognize color . Some of us don’t have that option . You are offended for absolutely no reason . Relax a little .
@@joemarks8548 lol y’all love calling people racists it’s funny . How is being inspired to do something for yourself after seeing someone who looks like you , racist ? It’s literally just nice to see someone who looks like you doing something that wouldn’t necessarily be normal for someone who is black . You wouldn’t see it the way we would because I’m assuming you’re not black . You don’t live the same live as a black person , I don’t like the same life as a Hispanic or an Asian , I’ll never talk down on their experiences because I don’t walk in those shoes . You should learn to do the same tbh .
@@DRHIPWHIP why are you picking a fight? Let's all try to get along.
This is one of the most beautiful van homes I have seen! Thank you for being a representative for our community!
Ive watched several UA-cam videos on vans, type C,B etc. and this to me is the best design and functionality that I've seen. Love the deep kitchen sink.
YES!!! Finally a van build that speaks to me. LOVE THE GOLD!
@Your Grace ghetto fabulous- yes
@Your Grace not responding further to you. It’s clear you’re a negative weirdo.
LOVE the gold! And all the awesome features in a short wheel base. This is so awesome.
YES!!!! not only did you come through with satisfying my request but you interviewed Antionette who is an awesome young lady and as you can hear, as I was stating things are a little different for black people in Vanlife unfortunately and this is just what I was stating when you asked what we would like to see on this channel and someone came for me for asking the question BUT as you can hear it is an issue of safety for us and acceptance of course which is just sad in such an awesome movement but Thank You for listening...
Thank you 😊
@@AntoinetteYvonne your van is awesome!!
@@AntoinetteYvonne A beautiful soul showing the way 😇💚🤗😚😊
Bless. This is so important.
@@AntoinetteYvonne You knew I'd be here. Good job on the interview. Your followers love you. 😊
This is by far THE BEST van conversion that I've ever seen!
This has got to be the prettiest interior design for a van conversion I've ever seen. I'm absolute in love with all the little details. I never really liked the bench style seats but yours look so comfy just like a real couch. Now if I could just figure out a way to have all that but with a murphy bed. Hmmm.
One of the best van conversions I’ve seen. Really high quality and good finish, with all the important bits. Fabulous to see a black female van lifer and also love that she is a glamorous van lifer! ❤️
“I opt for a shower-cause I like shower” 😂 no excuse. U just like it. If I ever go van/tiny home-I can’t give up the shower either!!
I think this is the prettiest van conversion I've seen, and I think it's also the first time I've seen a shower in a van! Love seeing a woman of color leading the charge on next-level #VanLife!
Definitely most chic van conversion I’ve ever seen. Great design and love that you’re breaking through barriers and forward leading!
She likes the finer things,so do I,this is pretty much how I would set up,love the brightness of her van,such finesse.
20 seconds in and I hit like. If this was The Voice, she'd have four chair turns. That van is GORG!
This is one of the cutest van conversions I have seen. Def inspiring.
She has THE BEST built out van that I've ever seen.
Love this van, love to see her living her best life. Such a beautiful woman!
yes and she looks happy😇💯
You are the first Black van-lifer I have seen and I am so grateful I was made aware of the stigmas and barriers that minorities face when doing van life or heck even just traveling. I never knew that, and I was so inspired by the company you started! Thank you for sharing your story!!
Had to bring race into it. That’s it your cancelled.
Heavy sigh. Head shake. You did notice that she said she doesn't run into problems and that She must be aware of her surroundings. Psst so does everyone else! Interesting since everyone's convinced that only white people travel in vans! Really? So that means white people are in danger of other white people in Vans? How about everybody is in danger from everybody no matter what color? When will the B.S. stop?
An issue minority’s face today is constantly being patronized by people who are surprised to find they can think for themselves. It’s called the soft bigotry of low expectations. I don’t fault you, it’s the programming from our media. In truth, economic opportunities for minorities are greater than for you and I.
@@rosylee5683 I am grateful for your comment. Every time race is brought into a conversation it automatically dilutes the issue.
The stigma is an illusion just like the barrier she made up in her head. You just do not see black people living in Vans not bc its a stigma or barrier they just don't do it as often. One a person of any color does something out of blue or not ordinary its not a special event. Sarah my grammar is not the best nor my punctuation but what are you going to do with that grateful awareness that you have been stowed upon by this charming barrier breaking stigma diluting black QWEEN!?
I LOVE your van, wow!! Absolutely with you 100% on the shower and toilet. Beautiful build!
I love your set up and the idea of going abroad and setting up your van for future travels is on point! You go girl!! ❤
This is by far one of the most stylish vans I've ever seen😍 that shower is STUNNING
Wonderful tour! I wish I had the $$$ to ask Vandemic for “the Antoinette setup” since that is such a beautiful and functional design. Lovely way to find Antoinette, and I’m looking forward to catching up with more content. Beautifully captured, as always, Tiny Home Tours crew!
I love that ivory-padded quilting! I'm so glad she talked about it! Very beautiful!!!
Beautiful van build!! Looks like it has a real cozy homey feel! Safe travels.
Dang, woman! That's a good looking layout. Thanks for showing us your home. Vandemic did a wonderful job.
"I opted for a shower, because... I like showers." Haha, perfect reason! @ 1:03 Knew at that moment I'd love the van tour.
Lol. I like showers.
By far my favorite van conversion. She obviously thought this through. Beautiful & functional. Well done - thanks for sharing. If I was younger and a bit less settled ...
This is one of the nicest most elegant van-homes that I have ever seen. And what a lovely lady-so beautiful and elegant herself! Just stunning all of it!💕
I always look for toilet and shower, if the van doesn't have it, I move to the next video no matter how awesome the camper van might be. I also hate the ones that have their port a potty next to their food area and just hide it....looks very unsanitary.
Your van is stunning, great job.
Yeah, I just saw one where there was a sort-of-shower, but no toilet! Ruined it for me. I'd give up closet space.
Biggest best refrigerator ive seen in a van!!
No way I’m rushing to a random place to relieve myself or shower.
@ZZ I feel the EXACT same way! I recently saw a video where midway the van owner showed the BUCKET she used as a toilet!😱 and no place to wash herself. Like seriously🤦♀️
I’m here from Antoinette’s channel 🤎 thank you for showing her! Please continue to share more black van lifers. I’m converting now & I watch her for inspiration. I also follow black van lifers to watch where is safe for me to travel. Thank youuuu

@@Aaron-vi5cr ....It's a special event to them. Sorry Sour Tones, we're celebrating with Sweet Tunes at this party.
@@Aaron-vi5cr This her truth and it is important for others like me that she is willing to ahare this. Your inabilty to accept someone's reality is disturbing and why people of color do not feel comfortable vemturing out to parts unknown because we are not welcome everywhere.
@@entrendzik well if you don’t feel welcome an you wanna be brave go back
Beautiful aesthetic van. Love your life’s mission and your van “Zion”. I have to say I really love the indoor shower/toilet. I am a photographer, I currently travel & camp extensively in my Jeep in the US. Your van is a luxury living space you must love to work and live in. Thanks for sharing💕.
this van build is so well thought out and gorgeous. what a beautiful home! :)
The quilted liner on the bulkheads is such a nice touch.
I love this van the most of all van conversions that I’ve seen. It’s beautiful, girly and glamorous...l adore Antoinette, she is fabulous! She breaks the stereotype that single van lifers are broke, begging for freebies and always need some type of help. And most importantly she has a real bathroom and shower, no buckets. I could live in that van comfortably.
This is one of the most beautiful vans I’ve seen. It’s roomy, bright and modern.
Now this is what I’m talking about. I could live in that van and plan on it once my daughter graduates and I become an empty nester. Thanks for inspiring me!
As my children were growing up, I encouraged them to travel the world. I must say they have taking my advice. Even my granddaughters r traveling. U only live once. Enjoy enjoy. My prayers r always with u. My oldest daughter's name is "Yvonne Antoinett". Keep doing ur thing. So proud.
We love Anttoniette !!! Her channel is one of my favorites; and her mama is hilarious when she’s had convos with her on there.
Helping pave the way for women of color; keep shining girl! 💜
You are SO classy! This is the most beautiful and awesome van conversion I've seen yet. I love the color scheme and the way you have everything arranged. A castle for a princess!!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. I wish you many "Blessings" as you "safely" journey through the United States and Europe. 💝
I love this design! Practical and beautiful.
It’s so inspiring to see a black woman living her freedom! Love to see it 😍 We deserve joy too and you’re right Travel is a necessity, it’s been gated and commodified for far too long.
No one ever stopped anyone from traveling...god
@@rosylee5683 while that is true, i think you forgot about 🎶racism🎶 which inconveniently stops people of colour from travelling most times.

I don't see her as a "black girl"... I see her as just a van girl like me. Another cool chick ;-)
I love seeing women who look like me out on the road living their best lives! I love your home on wheels. My favorites the marble and gold details with the fresh white backgrounds.💜
Thank you 😊
And her videos are alwaus enjoyable to watch. I can't wait to see what she's up to for the week. Time well spent.
Finally showing that VANLIFE CAN be for EVERYONE and ANYONE! Totally AWESOME!👍 She has a sweet set up.
“Travel is a Necessity”. Absolutely Beautiful statement and fact. Well done for being the testament to show that “ black folks absolutely do”. ❤️From U.K.🇬🇧
Absolutely stunning conversion! I must admit I was intrigued when I saw a Black woman vanlifer (I’m an older white woman who is hoping to do this soon- I might steal your setup) so thank you for telling your story. You are fabulous. I am also a traveller who thinks travel is an essential education.
Yay!! AY is one of my favorite people ever! Her content is always inspiring, encouraging, and fun!! ❤️
Thank you 😊
Hi Antoinette I'm a new subscriber and I like what I see your van is gorgeous as well as you are enjoy your travels and have fun fun fun
💚👍🏽
One of my favourites. I love that she loves glamour and makes no apology for and got it i spades in her van. It is beautiful, and feminine and just enough glamour to make you feel really good about being in a tiny tiny space, with a shower. I wont forget the shower. It has to be the most glamorous shower on the road.
Love love love it. :)
I have been looking at vans for my husband and myself for many months now (8-9) and yours is, without a doubt, the nicest one I've seen so far! With 2 of us, I would probably go for the longer wheel base because I want us to be able to get away from each other a bit more LOL but the colours, the finishes - OMG - that Lagun table is the bomb! - and everything else you've done is so excellent. I notice that this was JUST before COVID struck. Hoping you still got out and lived your best life during these past 2 crazy years. What an inspiration!
Yay! I love when people I follow pop up on Tiny Home Tours. She’s one of my favorites and I hope she gains so many more followers from this. I promise she’ll keep you laughing.
Thank you! Blessings
Thank you for stating that travel is a necessity not just luxury. I find immersing myself in the different cultures allows me to see to the core of people. It enriches my life to understand the different cultural ways. Heck even in our own country we have many different subcultures indigenous to the regions. I am richer for having traveled.
Love the shower, love the big fridge, love all electric, love the dinette. I don't know how you got all of that in a small wheelbase, but it is great.
Travel is a necessity. What an insight ! What a wise person 👏 ❤
Absolutely incredible woman, beautiful van!
My favorite build that I have seen so far! I love the sleek glam style and amenities that she has incorporated into her van 💕
Love the idea of GLOBALLY ABROAD! Will search for more info. Yes! "Travel is a necessity". This pandemic year has challenged the ability to act on that, but having her voice speak it, is important aspirationally. Thanks Sierra, Hillary and Brian for bringing US all together also! Super van! Antoinette is a joy!
Congratulations on reaching out to your dreams! You, my dear, are an inspiration to all!
Truly inspiring to see such an amazing women taking life into her own hands 👏🏽🙌🏽❤️ love it !
What a beautifully, fantastically designed van!! It's THE BEST one I've seen so far- and I swear I've seen hundreds upon hundreds of tiny house van videos over the past few years. As has been said before in the comments, the shower is wonderfully done. Love the lightness and feel of the whole van, plus the gold accents.
One of the best van conversions I've seen, and I look at nearly ever conversion I can find.
Seriously one of the most luxurious vans I've seen. This is how you wanna van-life! 👏🏽
I also love that she thought ahead and planned for International living.
Best van conversion I have ever seen! What an awesome person - so thankful she is able to do this! She’s an encouragement to all who would be looking to try van life!
❤️👏🏻
I love this van. It is as beautiful as its owner. Antoinette, thank you for sharing your experiences. Travel is indeed a necessity. An eye-opener. A mind-expander. May your future adventures continue to broaden your horizons and may you encourage others to follow in your footsteps, or at the very least, to start out on their own path.
Thank you. :-)
What a great person! I really appreciate her outlook on life. The van is beautiful! Very homelike with attention to detail. With a shower and potty! Those are essential to my comfort 😄
Absolutely gorgeous van! This video and you are an inspiration to see that you don’t have to give up comfort or style... or a shower to do this this lifestyle! Thank you for sharing❤️
Love love love this layout! Antoinette has a beautiful attitude and down to earth personality, what a wonderful spirit! Enjoy your travels and be safe! ❤️
I just love her! Her personality is wonderful! I love seeing realistic and homey vans! I need to do this!
This is such a beautiful home van, I love it and it's so clean...
I love what you said about travel being necessary to experience different cultures and people. Very beautiful home you have it speaks about your mission and your journey. Thank you Queen.
Thank you.
Now this is how you do Van life ! Excellent! Finally someone who did van life correctly! I absolutely love love your shower 🧼 and a real refrigerator! Absolutely gorgeous and classy and glamorous.
So glad you showcased Antoinette! You did a wonderful job of highlighting her personality and how that’s expressed in her home on wheels. Great job all around!
Loving the I like showers! Beautiful white with gold accents!! Farmhouse sink is gorgeous! Glamorous on every level! If I do a can I’d do an air fryer too! Glad to see a cool can manage in a van!
Ditto, from all of the nice comments. I've been looking at many, many videos to figure out what I would want for traveling cross country.
FOUND IT! 💙 BEAUTIFUL VAN! 💙
Thanks for sharing! 💙
This young lady is simply a breath of fresh air. Keep doing what your doing. And you did a great job in the interview!
YAYYYYYYYYY!!!!! She got a Tiny Home Tours feature!!! Love watching her growth and her videos!! I know that's right Antoinette!!!! Excited for you and thank you Tiny Home Tours for featuring her
Thank you :-)
@@AntoinetteYvonne who made your van? It is very glam! I love it. Very happy you are doing great.
@@celiabesore3298 She mentions it in this video. Without going back to the video, I believe she said the company is Vandemic? If I'm wrong...sorry!!
OMG, this is one of the best if not the best van built I have seen, and I have binge-watched a lot of them. Go, Sister!
I absolutely LOVE her home and have watched a number of her videos! The gold accents throughout just tie everything together.
This van is freaking AMAZING!!! The design is well thought out and I love the shower/toilet combination. I also love that she’s a beautiful black woman doing van life. Thank you for sharing this great video!
There is nothing beautiful about a Black woman telling white folks that Black people do not travel.
First time seeing this young lady, shes has the most beautiful van I've ever seen and I love it, we all grow every day, do something you've never done before each day and you'll have the most forfill life with plenty to talk about. You go girl !
Be safe and be healthy 🥰😍🤩
This woman's conversion is gorgeous! I love her perspective on travel. Inspiring she's pushed limits & even more so for future generations with her co.
I absolutely love everything about this van. All the necessary amenities are in place. Perfect. ❤️💯
