VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Description:
Join Caitlin Pyle as she gives you an exclusive tour of " Vanastasia," her beautifully customized van that epitomizes the essence of modern van life with high-end finishes and smart solutions. After downsizing from a traditional home, Caitlin has embraced a simpler life on the road without sacrificing comfort or style. Discover how she has transformed her van into the best home she's ever had, complete with luxurious amenities and ingenious modifications.
🚐 Inside Vanestasia:
Gourmet Kitchen: Explore Caitlin’s kitchen, which features a quartz countertop identical to the one she had in her previous home, symbolizing her seamless transition to van life. The kitchen is equipped with a two-burner induction cooktop, an eco-friendly dishwasher, and a versatile toaster oven that eliminates the need for a microwave, keeping her meals nutritious.
Living and Storage Spaces: Caitlin highlights the abundant storage across the van, including a full-size closet, innovative cabinetry, and even a hidden dishwasher that doubles as a drying rack. Every nook is utilized to ensure a clutter-free and functional living environment.
Tech-Smart Utilities: From USB-equipped power outlets to advanced water filtration systems, Caitlin’s van is designed for convenience and sustainability. She details the use of Quakehold gel to secure items in place, an uncommon but life-changing addition to her mobile home.
🌍 Sustainable Living on the Road:
Water Conservation: With a 32-gallon fresh water supply and her trusty Berkey filter, Caitlin is equipped for extensive travel, employing water-saving techniques like military showers to extend her independence on the road.
Energy Efficiency: Caitlin’s van boasts 200 watts of solar power and a secondary alternator, ensuring her energy needs are met responsibly. She also uses a high-capacity battery system to run her appliances efficiently, including a unique air conditioning setup that allows for comfort without the constant engine run.
👩🎨 Design and Decor:
Caitlin and her van builder, Bougie Builds from Fayetteville, NC, collaborated closely to bring her vision to life, incorporating sleek mirrored chrome backsplash tiles that reflect her aesthetic and the van’s overall luxurious feel. The cohesive design extends from the polished kitchen to the cozy bedroom space.
💡 Lifestyle and Philosophy:
Van Life Community: Caitlin shares her insights into the van life community, emphasizing the minimalist lifestyle that has allowed her to live more freely and happily than ever before. She reflects on the profound personal growth and the joy of living authentically on the road.
Mental and Physical Wellness: Through her journey, Caitlin has become a passionate advocate for mental health, sharing her story to inspire others to take care of their psychological well-being as diligently as their physical spaces.

Running away from your problems solves nothing. Just a little friendly advice. Please go seek therapy. That's what I would do

@@Hope_Faith_Strength no I was just saying if you think moving into a van & traveling is gonna help you escape the thoughts or the pain it isn't. I don't have to experience it first hand to know the things I have experienced myself that unhealed issues stay unhealed. I'm glad you are in therapy. Go enjoy your life then if traveling is what you want to do. I wish you the best.
This is one of my favorites…I never understand how some people don’t have a shower/toilet in their living space…it’s not ok for me. This seems perfect!

I agree! What if you're on a 5 hour journey and pull over needing to go and you can't because you realise there's no loos anywhere 😂
The best van build I’ve ever seen. A dishwasher?! How amazing!! And that giant fridge! Love the tiles and color palette too! ❤️

So proud of you, for you and thankful for how God is working in Your life!!
Absolutely beautiful. I might be partial that there's a lot of green in the interior, too. Gorgeous design.
Congratulations,this is a Beautiful Home on wheels, I commend you!!!! God bless you 🙏
If you reverse the clips on your fridge the little strap wont flap out into your fridge every time you open the door. So put the side that you have on the door on the side of the fridge and the side on the side of the fridge on the door. We have those clips on my kids’ dressers and it got super annoying till I realized I could just position them the opposite way.

What an amazing woman ❤ absolutely love her energy
I really like this whole outlook on life. Thank you for sharing the van tour plus the experience and wisdom you’ve gained.
This build probably cost as much as some houses.
Well done. We all deserve a good life.
I love the van… but I think I like Caitlyn more! ❤❤❤
Wow , this is fantastic ! Checked out Boujee and they are in my sales territory ;) I’m currently taking care of am aging dad and working FT, and planning my next chapter on the road. You are an inspiration ! I always say …. Bloom where you are planted !
Me encantaría vivir en esa mini casa tan bella y cómoda! 🎉🎉Eso sí, pondría una lavadora! 😊😊Te felicito muy linda y conserva esa nevera súper retro! ❤
If it makes Caitlin happy, then a dishwasher is a good thing! Beautiful van build. 😊
200 watts powers it all ok? Love the fridge, a real fridge! Beautiful build! :)
Good for her ! Best of travels, experiences and enjoy your recharge to life !
Hi Caitlin, I love the van. I'm having Boujee Build do my Ford Transit van too. I met them this week, and they told me about your dishwasher. I won't have one in mine, but will have a wall-mounted washer/dryer.

Beautiful van build
very nice van build love it , real nice design has all you need and looks so comfortable. love your color scheme and that duvet so beautiful. how true not too many need a big house , I have a bungalow not a big home but love tiny home's and well built vans which id prefere once this is paid in a couple years. I wish you all the best in Life .... living the van life .
Fancy. I like the countertop and the retro green color of the cubboards along with the retro fridge.
Your van home is really beautiful and you have all the comforts of home. Your garage is amazing too! Good job on everything.
Very nice van. Reminds me of Alicia Silverstone. Good for her to be better and help others who struggle. Attachment to a motorhome is still attachment though (even if it is better viewed or accepted than attachment to a big house). Wish her the best. Cheers

Agree totally ! Also, dishes washed in a dishwasher are 'cleaner' that when washed in 'hand-friendly' dishwater.
Love your van, I could see myself in this, just trying to figure out if this would be comfortable with 2 bulldogs. 🤔
Lovely van..v comfy.
Beautiful van-home! Have fun! 👏🏻❤️
Lovely
I love your camper
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!
So beautiful! I’m retiring and looking to do vanlife or tiny home. I like your setup. I may contact your builders
I loved this setup especially that all-in-one oven wow and the fridge! Cute name for your home! Thank you for sharing abt your struggles and how you've overcome them. I'm going to have to borrow your post-it note as a reminder for me thank you! PS-what is brand name of your fridge? ty

Beautiful home. Safe travels.
Absolutely LOVE it....but is there some kind of door or shower curtain that goes across the bathroom opening? I didn't see any. Would be super awkward to have a friend or visitor over and no privacy in that regard lol

Nice...it's got a fairly wide berth.
Very nice indeed.. How did they insulate it for you
What do you use for window coverings?
Nice van, but no where to sit on a rainy day other than the bed. Unless the seats swivels. Where is your office space?

At 0:10 you can see the passenger seat is swiveled around to the kitchen area, and then she has that collapsable shelf/desk/counter at the end of her kitchen cabinet.
Love it but I won't have a dishwasher nor such a huge refrigerator because the heavier the load the more gas you spend.
Your van build is beautiful!!! Would you provide the contact info for the builder in Fayetteville? Thank you!

I'm really like what you've done with your van. If I can't get my tiny house by the time I want to retire I may have to go to a van life in order to be debt-free. I hope you don't mind if I use your platform of what you've done and hopefully I can get those builders that you had to help. I wish you the best in your future
Is the bed the lounge area as well
holy cow and a Mercedes to boot!
