VIDEO DESCRIPTION:

Lindsay has been living in her Ford Transit for over a year. She’s been in San Diego and loves the weather, with no intention of soon hitting cold locations. The self-conversion took eight months to complete while working full-time and being assisted by her handy grandfather.ย 

Her kitchen has ample storage, including overhead bins, plenty of drawers, and a beautiful farmhouse sink. She installed a Nature’s Head compost toilet under the sink and out of the way. Lindsay also has a massive security system with several cameras surrounding the rig and a Wi-Fi connection so she can see the van from anywhere on her phone! Dividing the cab and living space is a projector screen that she can drop down for privacy and added protection.

  3. Martha Bradas on February 5, 2023 at 6:10 am

    You have accomplished an amazing build out. I love that you are planning your financial life to retire by 50. You have a very entrepreneurial spirit, and I know you are going to accomplish your goals!!! ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘โค

  10. A BC on February 5, 2023 at 6:22 am

    Great van build! Clever lady and like the amount of thought and detail that went into the security and safety aspects very impressed with the whole thing tbh especially for a first build by someone with no experience! Very talented lady obviously has plenty of drive and a "get up & go" attitude! Nice job! I’m sure she’s going to make a great success of her van build business and the other endeavours she undertakes! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

  11. Joaquim Castro on February 5, 2023 at 6:24 am

    Fantastic but is the finance on line ,,,,,

  12. Debbie Hartford on February 5, 2023 at 6:24 am

    Doesn’t look like she does any cooking, or did she clean everything out before the tour?

  13. Alex Palumbo on February 5, 2023 at 6:24 am

    Really fab that you had your grandfather pass on some handy skills to you. Love that. Great work.

  14. Patsy Kluting-Lucas on February 5, 2023 at 6:26 am

    Chris any way to stop those obnoxious comments from a troll?

  15. Bob Moss on February 5, 2023 at 6:27 am

    Funny…entertain in a tiny van…LOL

  16. Kathy in Training on February 5, 2023 at 6:28 am

    Very, Very Impressive build!! Good luck with all your plans!๐Ÿ‘

  17. Patsy Kluting-Lucas on February 5, 2023 at 6:28 am

    Awesome build and security features. She says she’s living in van fulltime but no belongings…confusing! Except fridge!

  18. Joe Young on February 5, 2023 at 6:28 am

    Great job

  21. Dave Sลซp on February 5, 2023 at 6:31 am

  23. bud sabbath on February 5, 2023 at 6:33 am

    6:00 show us your bloopers!

  24. Petra Kann on February 5, 2023 at 6:36 am

    Your knives are also accessible to an intruder.
    Safety to conceal these knives if you intend to use them in self defence.
    Never heard someone describing their Van home and talking about using their kitchen knife as a weapon

  25. Jean Poisal on February 5, 2023 at 6:36 am

    Love this van. Wish I could afford it. Bless you

  26. Dean Ayer on February 5, 2023 at 6:36 am

    What a great use of space. Very well done.

  27. sally Grover on February 5, 2023 at 6:37 am

    Cute dog smart girl

  28. Tony Montana on February 5, 2023 at 6:37 am

    Neat Iโ€™m in

  29. Frank Dank on February 5, 2023 at 6:38 am

    You’ve lived in this van for a year? And other than the regenerator, it’s empty. Someone steal all your stuff. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚

  30. Tom S. on February 5, 2023 at 6:39 am

    Does youโ€™re dog stay on the bed with you like mine does? I have a 10 year old Toy Fox Terrier.

  31. Will Eckrich on February 5, 2023 at 6:43 am

    First off, a BEAUTIFUL build! Second, what an impressive lady! I love the dedication and determination – and her goals (short-term and long-term). I wish you nothing but success! ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚

  32. Flash213 on February 5, 2023 at 6:44 am

    Thanks for the tour, wonderful first build

  33. Dawn Detelj on February 5, 2023 at 6:45 am

    Wow your van is so beautiful, just my styleโ™ฅ๏ธโ™ฅ๏ธโ™ฅ๏ธโ™ฅ๏ธ

  34. Mona Lisa on February 5, 2023 at 6:45 am

    I so want to do this and now even more so after watching this wonderful lady. Great job!!! โคโคโค

  35. MSDIVASTYLE100 on February 5, 2023 at 6:48 am

    Nice build but, I have to admit that I always laugh because, in these tiny homes they all say, โ€œI have tons of storage โ€œ when they really do not! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  36. Ileana Stevens on February 5, 2023 at 6:51 am

    Show how the shower work

  37. Jay Sully on February 5, 2023 at 6:51 am

    damn she looks like fun ๐Ÿ˜‰ love those perky nipples peaking through

  38. Nicole P on February 5, 2023 at 6:51 am

    โ€ฆ if this one does sell maybe we could work something out and have you custom build mine ? Just a thought ๐Ÿ’ญ

  39. psy Amok on February 5, 2023 at 6:57 am

    All the storage spaces are empty. I don’t think she lives in this van.

  40. Nancy Kane on February 5, 2023 at 6:58 am

    Did you go to UCONN ?

  41. Andrea Mantovani on February 5, 2023 at 6:59 am

    Lots of flaws in this build its extremely claustrophobic and most of all there’s no shower. Cleanliness and hygiene should be the most important thing

  42. Mona Luv on February 5, 2023 at 6:59 am

    Do you build them yourself.. Iโ€™m looking for someone who can help me out

  43. Gail Kellum on February 5, 2023 at 7:01 am

    Very cool build! You and your Grandparents did a great job.. Wishing you success in all your endeavors!

  44. Quateshia Howard on February 5, 2023 at 7:01 am

    Glad you added extra locks on the inside. Great job

  47. HJ Haseeb on February 5, 2023 at 7:02 am

  48. Andrew & Barbara on February 5, 2023 at 7:02 am

    Hi Lindsey. Just come across your channel and watched this video. Love the van by the way. We will be watching more. We have subscribed by the way. Pop over and check us out. A&B.x

  49. RJE CLE on February 5, 2023 at 7:04 am

    I am so impressed with the work you have done. Not just your construction ability but your creative side. The way you have utilized all of the areas in a way that is accessible and functional. I could see my second oldest granddaughter doing something like what you have done.
