How to Take a Sponge Bath


Checking out other ways to stay clean in our van.



Video ~ More RV shower options.

Here are a few more options and ideas for making your own RV shower. I am putting some of my favourite ideas in this post for reference. I hope you find them useful aslo.

~~~~~~~~~~


This is an interesting idea for heating your water and also some water storage.

Video ~ SELF-BUILD MOTORHOME 1 - SHOWER CONSTRUCTION



This inspired us to install our own shower system as our van, that will be here in 11 more sleeps, is missing a shower. I have done a load of research during the week and will find all my bookmarks and put a post together with the options that are on top of our list so far.

Fridge Research: 002






A few options for fridge/freezers for your van or rv. This guy always makes me chuckle.


Fridge Research: 001


Fridge research. We are looking for a fridge/freezer that we can put in a cupboard on a draw under the sink or something. Need too look into ventilation and such to see if it is safe. Also need to do more research on the different power outputs n what not. So much information and a tad confusing. We can do this!





Paint Option for Van.



This is a great video (of many from Van Life) on painting your own van. It looks like an awesome product and we want to do both inside an out for extra noise proofing and protection. Check out the video and read the info below and don't forget to check out his webpage for even more information on painting your van and loads more guides.

Rambling post on why we want to live in a van.




So a little more about us.

We are both hoping that we find ourselves and our old talents once we are no longer surrounded by all the distractions we have in our current life.

At the moment we have a Desktop PC each, a laptop each and I think another one or two that I need to "fix". Between us, we have 5 mobile phones. 2 in use, the other 3 for our games that we play. We also have a TV and a Playstation. I think there is a Gameboy hidden somewhere in a cupboard also.

I would like to get back into my crafting and sell my wears and my partner wants to write (she is so very talented and should be writing the blog instead of me ha ha)

It is hard working out where to start and I really want to get some of it done before we have the van. We need to trade in some of the electronics. We would like a Kobo or somesomething like it so we can shrink our book collection and stop trying to read from our phones in bed. Need to get 1 well rounded laptop each and get rid of all the others. We got the Desktops for our games as we are big gamers, or at least we use to be. The online gaming community that we use to find compfort in has become quite toxic and isnt filling the void for community like it use to.

We don't even have a van yet but the van and rv community has already reached out to us and giving us so much support and love. 

On the weekends we would like to start sorting though our things. I have picked up some overtime the last coupld of weekends and this long weekend is my birthday weekend so nothing is getting done just yet. Once overtime is over, each weekend I will set myself a goal and get stuck into it.

Anyone have some tips on letting go of stuff or how to get rid of electronics? Please leave your tips and ideas below.

Maybe a VW is too small for us?

We have been looking at a few Volkswagens, but this one has us thinking it might be too small.




On a serious note, there are so many VW to choose from.

  • Panel van, a delivery van without side windows or rear seats.
  • Double-door Panel Van, a delivery van without side windows or rear seats and cargo doors on both sides.
  • High Roof Panel Van (GermanHochdach), a delivery van with raised roof.
  • Kombi, from GermanKombinationskraftwagen (combination motor vehicle), with side windows and removable rear seats, both a passenger and a cargo vehicle combined.
  • Bus, also called a Volkswagen Caravelle, a van with more comfortable interior reminiscent of passenger cars since the third generation.
  • Lotação (share-taxi), a version exclusive to Brazil, with 6 front-hinged doors for the passenger area and 4 bench-seats, catering to the supplemental public transport segment. Available from 1960 to 1989, in both the split-window and "clipper" (fitted with the bay-window front panel) body styles.
  • Samba-Bus, a van with skylight windows and cloth sunroof, first generation only, also known as a Deluxe Microbus. They were marketed for touring the Alps.
  • Flatbed pickup truck, or Single Cab, also available with wider load bed.
  • Crew cab pick-up, a flatbed truck with extended cab and two rows of seats, also called a Doka, from GermanDoppelkabine.
  • Westfalia camping van, "Westy", with Westfalia roof and interior. Included optional "pop-up" top.
  • Adventurewagen camping van, with high roof and camping units from Adventurewagen.
  • Semi-camping van that can also still be used as a passenger car and transporter, sacrificing some camping comforts. "Multivan" or "Weekender", available from the third generation on.
