Many people have messaged us in the past asking what they should include in their camper van conversion, how they should lay it out, what they might need, and our answer is always this: go on a camping trip, take your empty van or hire one out, get a feel for what things are essential to you and get a little taste of vanlife before you decide to commit to it full time.
You may realise you need a bigger van, or that a full size Luton is overkill; you may realise you can’t live without a woodburner or a way to charge your laptop, or you may think you can do without all of the mod cons altogether. Renting a van and heading out on a roadtrip for a week or two is the best way of figuring out your own van conversion essentials.
As many of you know we are working on converting our second van, a 1979 Bedford CF into a beautiful camper van for a family of four, to hire out year-round, allowing us to fund our travels full-time and allowing families to enjoy the experience of driving and camping in a beautiful hand-built classic camper. For us, Goboony seemed like the perfect company to advertise it through.
So we’ve written a little article over on our website explaining who they are and what they do, and we’d highly recommend checking out their beautiful range of camper vans for hire across 10 different countries, as well as all the inspiration, travel destinations and tips on their blog- you’ll find our interview in their too.
