Living Full-Time in a VAN in New Zealand | FULL Campervan Tour

Living Full-Time in a VAN in New Zealand | FULL Campervan Tour

Meet Clifford, the Big Red Van! For my year-long Working Holiday in New Zealand, I’ll be living in a campervan full-time. Though the idea is daunting and I’ve never lived in such a tiny space, living in a campervan will allow me to freely travel around New Zealand and massively save on accommodation costs with freedom camping and re-selling my campervan at the end of the year.

This video is my full campervan tour. It took me loads of extra money and time to transform the inside of the van from the sad state it was originally in, to the cozy little home it is now. I hope you enjoy what I’ve done.

If you have any questions about van life please feel free to ask me in the comments below! There will also be a video on how to buy a campervan in New Zealand for those interested.

    Thank a lot, very useful video.
    I like that you mentioned about kitchen inside.
    Yeah, NZ rains with strong wind could make everything wet in minutes after you open back door.

    Love how you fixed up your van and surprised that it was sold to you in such a bad state. But you made it home for awhile, hope you enjoyed your adventures around our country.
