I was getting so discouraged watching all the videos with van conversions where would have to build things because i have no place to build out something so elaborate but this gave me hope that i can have a cute easy set up! Thank u so much!!

Your biggest challenge will be weather. Most of the country is pretty toasty. Many states in drought conditions. Unless you have a Tesla with temp control, lol, it's pretty challenging. But look on the map to find cool temperatures, national parks (boondocking), cities(stealth camping). Get a nationwide gym membership so you can shower and workout too...sitting in a vehicle for long hours is never good. A gym gives you an option to get physical exercise when hiking, biking, swimming, tennis or whatever you love to do just didn't work into that days' schedule. Good luck and have a great time!!!

Where is all the stuff kept when she’s traveling? It looks like she’s continually getting her gear from another place then assembling it.

Exactly. Some of the van life stuff is creating artificial needs. this is so practical instead.
For the last couple of years, I've been watching all kinds of heavy-duty videos about car camping for extended periods of time. Then this one comes along and it's all dainty and decorative! Totally visually pleasing for an overnight-er instead of hardcore functional for the month-long trips I take in my Outback. I love it! I can see comments from people who probably have my background in car camping, freaking out about the things sliding all over. I'm guessing the spices aren't left out while driving. lol Besides loving the storage boxes, my biggest take-away is the TV tray behind the passenger seat. I was like, WAH?? That fits back there? *As I look at my TV tray right now under my laptop. Cool! 🤩 Thank you for sharing!

Wow this is full of easy and affordable ideas. I love how you transform your SUV without having to remove anything from it 💕
I plan on moving into a van by time I'm 22 due to home life and just needing my own space and I felt so overwhelmed watching all these videos. With all the builds because I'm literally supporting myself plus tso. This is just a amazing idea for the time being thanks.
My husband and I did something like this many years ago with a station wagon. I wanted privacy curtains. I used suction cups, fabric and dowels to make them in advance of our trip. This video reminded me of a fun time that now, alone, I could go again. Thank you.

Dawn, yours is the very best camper shell set-up I've seen AND it looks classy!
It is so rude to say she went out and bought new things… some of us take good care of our things and a lot of my things including curtains look new but they are washed and rehung up often. Nearly everything she uses I already have as I have been camping for years. The only thing I do not have is the nice tray over the two wooden boxes. But when you are as old as me you keep everything. When my kids were little we couldn’t afford to go on vacations so we went camping instead. I still have all the camping gear
This is great! You can go from work week to camp ready in minutes. Thank you for posting this helpful video!
Really nice, and it looks so comfortable! My only suggestion: I'd want to add window coverings around the side and the back of the van, too.

Nice! My wife and I just got a 2021 Sante Fe and are taking it across the country and back for a month and will be mainly living in it so this is inspiring!
I'd like to do this with my husbands big car, but we'd need a double bed. So instead of a table along the side length we'd use the dashboard and frontseats of car for meals etc. and just sleep in the back. I'd have to remove alot of creepie crawlies and dirt first though, because he uses his car for all his gardening tools and grass bags.
Finally, someone who did a video where I don't have to build anything to go camping in my car with! I never thought of removing the head boards on the seats. Thanks! I don't have the tools , equipment to make it fancy. But this showed me what I can do with what I have.
I have a 2011 Santa Fe in great condition, with low mileage, and this gives me hope for having a weekend camper! Thank you so much!
What a cool set up in the SUV! I love how organized she is with her space.
I have an older Santa Fe, absolutely love the model! Great video. You've encouraged me not to sacrifice aesthetics for function on my shorter trips. :)
You have inspired me to "convert" my Honda CR-V into a camper in lieu of buying a camper or a conversion van. You've sparked so many ideas and I'm very excited about this little project. Thank you SO much.
This is beautiful. I totally love it. I strapped 2 headlamps at the front seats. They are so bright, I don't even have to pull out the Lucy lantern.
I LOVE how she made it just for her.
Absolutely beautiful. I would not have the patience to set all that up and undo it but if I was living in that that would be super cool! My van is in the shop getting an engine it is a 2010 handicap Dodge grand Caravan so no stolen go seating and the wheelchair takes up the center of the van so it will be a challenge to get everything I want in it for my travels. (disabled senior gal here that travels with three Chihuahuas) However your cute build gave me some wonderful ideas! I just wish you would have talked during the video. Absolutely gorgeous!
Nice set up for hanging out at a park for the day. You have some very simple practical ideas. Thanks for sharing!

Charming. You might consider getting a roll of that "sticky matting" to place under the items on your shelf/counter so they won't slide around when the van is in motion. 😉

I applaud and admire all those that can have all these "accoutrements" either fixed or temporary....it's just that having all that stuff, very often involves moving/shifting one thing or another to get the right set up, you need to get out of your vehicle, open doors, take out stuff, etc., etc, and if you're in a park or campsite setting, it makes a lot of sense to be seen doing all that, however, if you're doing "car life" in the City and you're trying to keep a low profile and not "advertise" you're living in your car, then I feel I need to stay contained (sort of speak) within the car and so a lot of this I don't really find "practical" for me...but again, I applaud those that do it and I can see that it makes your car feel more like a "home".

This set up is specifically for camping though. If she is at a campsite or beachside she is more than likely aware of her surroundings and is hopefully being wise. This also explains all of the small baskets of napkin, cutlery and the like. As for city car dwellers who have no choice I think this is a great guide for their set up. Eliminate the kitchenette next to the bed this set up is quite doable.
I love this! You’ve made a very pretty, clean, and organized spot for yourself. Thank you for showing how it went together. Those mini paper lantern solar lights are brilliant. Great job. This inspires me 😊
I have been saving all my money to convert my van as a camper but is too much money, but now I have the right model for my SUV that doesn’t require much money just a touch of love and exquisite touch!!
Excellent choices for your car camp. You picked functional, yet stylish, items for a modern and cozy feel. Not cluttered, love that, set up very much like you own Chevrolet Classic Conversion Van with the EXPLOYER Company package. That design is perfect for those of us who value minimalist yet comfy.
I love it! It is so easy when you have the right things and know how you put them together. Thank you, thank you.
Thank you, this is so doable and aesthetic! Great job with going to the point too!
Great ideas, I have a Honda CRV and love camping so this is perfect. Thank you for the inspiration. I am on it now!,
So nice to see a doable conversion that won't cost a fortune. Thank you 🙂
You have a lot of good ideas. I have an SUV as well and because I am alone I took out all the seats except the front two. This gives you more headroom. The hardest part is sleeping with your food boxes in the back but that is necessary. In parks, you can't leave food out to attract bears. 🐻
Super cute! So many good ideas here, and love the aesthetic!
The plant at 3:30 totally cracked me up! 😂
OMGosh, I’m so inspired to do this with my CRV, who needs a camper!
i love the simplicity, other people invest thousands of dollars for their complicated set ups!
I don't even know how to drive yet. I tried once and decided not to bother again but I love the idea of having a camper. I now have a concrete reason to try again
Simple and clean, well done. The real issue in car camping, is staying cool or warm , if you do not have climate control without running the engine.

We just purchased a 22 Kia Sorento hybrid....we love to travel and usually sleep in the car for 1 day of travel. This is a great idea and we are so ready to get back on the road.
We use our Disco for sleeping in when camping and just take the back seats out and put boards down and a blow up mattress. It's my husband's work vehicle so has to function as a car most of the time. Everything is removable, but it works well as a camper when needed. Love watching the videos too but agree, would like to see more like this.
❤️ The fanny pack is such a genius idea! ❤️
Exactly what I was looking for!!!! I have the Hyundai Tucson and wanted to see if it would work...thanks!!
I'm currently living in the city out of my PT Cruiser for financial reasons. I have a beagle and a calico cat along for the ride. I'm trying to decide if I should remove my back seats and front passenger seat in order to lower my sleeping area so that I can actually sit up in bed. I am considering making the hatchback area into a tiny teardrop camper kitchen that can also be accessible from inside as my bed goes all the way to the dashboard wien the passenger seat is folded down.. I've seen this done in many videos. I've already downsized so much, but I still need room to store things. I love the simple beauty of this no build. It gives me many ideas as I do not know how to build. Thank you for your simplicity and decorating skills. P.S. When I watched you pull out your wire spice rack it made me smile. I have been hanging on to one of four that I had. I love these.
Beautiful set up
That is so pretty!
Of course, you can picnic in your drive but to go anywhere this all must be secured. Which...of course, there are many options to secure it all. It's cute and fun! Just make sure you've got better window coverings than the gauzy or lacy sheets and make sure you're safe. Brava!
So adorable and homey!!! One of the nicest looking/functioning no builds I've seen.
Safety needs to also be a concern. Any loose items become projectiles during an accident. That includes not just small items but larger boxes as well. So securing things for travel is a must for safety.

I'm very drawn to this nomadic, minimalistic lifestyle. After decades in the race, I'm done. I can easily see myself doing this. Thanks for making the vid. Great setup you have.
I really love your kitchen cabinet/countertop. Is it homemade or store bought?
Interesting, thank you. Would have been helpful to have seen from complete unload, to set-up. You seemed to have everything stored 'somewhere else' that you then brought to your vehicle slowly item by item. after you had folded down the seats etc. How do you manoeuvre inside, how much room do you have sleeping when the tail-gate is closed down? You must have an inside handle to release it, automatic, so you can get out?
Lovely simple and clear to follow video, Sarah. At some stage might you be able to give a fuller list of what you bring (even if it's not linked to a purchase site) to help the rest of us assemble a travel kit! 😃 Would be very helpful for packing nerds like me!
