Thanks buddy, will definitely change that💪😁
You really have a lovely, elegant and well planned van. Besides the fire extinguisher right next to the gas being a danger, I would also add a holder for the shower head in the van. Great job! ❤
Hey guys you have done an amazing job with the van, it must be nice to have that feeling of home from home whilst you travel and somewhere that belongs to you, hotels are great but you can never beat your own personal space

I like this comment😜❤️hahaha much love and will be safe😁
Beautiful home, I loved everything about it. I wish a way could have been made for the toilet to have a slide out from the shower as opposed to lifting it in and out.
Never seen the batteries under the seat! Love the wood counters and where you set up the kitchen. Love the wood between the kitchen and bed. The " bathroom" area is awesome.
Hey guys, I absolutely love, love your house on wheels. I've watched many videos in the last couple of days trying to get ideas for converting my Ford Transit 2013 into a tiny home on wheels. I enjoyed watching them all. However, your video has stood out the most. Your vehicle is beautiful. Thanks for sharing and stay safe out there. 💕❤💙
The best vehicle for a trip, Well planned and well executed van, Great to see❤
Omg that is a Beautiful Van house on wheels ❤❤
Its lovely. It would be interesting however to see what you might change & what you're really pleased with after you live in it for a while.
great camper I haven't seen your entire series, but if you haven't, you should get a hole made from your gas cupboard and out into nature if a leaky seal were to occur. 👍
A wonderful transformation to your van! You will have to do a North America tour someday!!! Greetings from Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada 🇨🇦. Have a great adventure!!!! Cheers.
Wow, Wow, Wow I am speechless! Well, not quite. That was an incredible conversion effort, so good and well done. Ready steady and off we go. ❤, take care and happy travels.
Your van series is very nice 👌🏻!! I want this series to be continued !! I love watching your videos . ❤

Very methodical and excellent planning, love it ❤ . Let's start the adventure 🎉
Van looks super cool !! Now we need a catchy name just like tuk tuk ... all the best guys !
Congratulations on the new van guys! What a cool van to live in it is! 👍 But as a female viewer, the moment Daniel took over explaining the electronics and batteries - all I heard was blah blah blah blah blah!😂😂😂 Nothing registered but what an awesome van!😂👍
You kids did a great job.
Add tiny souvenirs along the journey to your van
That was a very fun video with you two.👏👏
Wow this is one of the best van builds I've came across 👏 happy travels guy's 😊

Leanne & Dan. An amazing job done on the van. You guys have really thought everything through. Such good utilisation of space. Also good to see the sustainability elements. Perhaps you now need some Elon Musk satellite Internet connectivity to have net on the go! 😊 Maybe you can think of adding a very loud hooter alarm system to go up in case of any threat and also auto dial emergency services with your location. Enjoy your new home and keep sharing your travel blogs. Tons of love & best wishes 🥂💕👍

Hi you two are just so cute. 😂 loved the tour of big red! You have done amazingly well! I wonder where you are driving to next can't wait to find out. Keep on smiling! Take care! ❤❤❤
Great additions to your van, it looks amazing. Loving the energy from you both. Safe travels.
Everything about this build is perfection!
Amazing happy travels xx❤
Shower is nice idea!
🎉 can't wait to see you both hitting the road in this! ❤
Great video guys enjoy.
Carbon monoxide is a heavy gas, heavier then air so you might want to keep the detector at a lower height so you won’t suffocate in your sleep. And I love your van! Have a great time van-liveing!

Thanks for this tip👍 Definitely going to be changing that.
Very good video! Your van does now, look more comfortable. Enjoy your trips!!
Exquisite build. Just EXQUISITE! "Ah, Precious. We must haves it. "
Great Build!
Cant wait to watch the next adventures !!
Hlo buddies Your van look like a big red😁 Small customisations but nice All best for your UK traveling can't wait to see you through camping.
Wonderful! 👌👌👌
Love it!
your van look so good ,waiting for your vanlife adventures, wishing best journeys ,safe travel
❤ big red looks great😊
Beautiful van!! I'd just need the toiket a bit more accessible....small bladder😂
Great presentation.
As usual great content and super awesome equipped van! Schönes Wohnwagen😁🚛💪Cant wait for more cuzzos
Woooow Amazing ❤❤❤
Beautiful home on wheels
I don’t think there’s ever the perfect conversion, there’s always going to be compromises but I think Big Red is close to perfect and you’ve done a fantastic job. I love the ceiling! Good choice with the fabric bulkhead curtain to block out the cabin. Enjoy you travels and look forward to some camper van recipes 😉
You two are best💵
Fire extinguisher near the gas cylinder is not advisable. If there is fire due to gas you can not reach to the extinguisher.
you're a lovely couple, enjoy your travels!

Hey buddymoon guys,you are both very energetic cats😻,I wouldn't ever seen another blogers..
Great set up in Big Red. 👍🏻 If an Indian built that spice rack it would cover one entire wall. 🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙🫙 And it was funny seeing Leanne doing her SAAALE skit again 😅

Hahahaha that is the funniest thing ever🤣🤣🤣 maybe we need spices like indians…. Goof food😂😂….. SaAAAAllllLE😂
for your safety please check out the proper location for your detector, i believe the carbon monoxide is heavier than air therefore it should be near the floor.
i know you guys would do this someday.. happy and safe journeys ahead, fam🥰💌
Oh yea the outdoor shower make sense! 😂
Awesome
Godspeed ✊🏽
Your carbon dioxide(heavy gas) alarm should be way lower, where the gas gathers.
That's really wonderful tiny little home!! Wonderful guys!! Not picking....but just a little observation, what will happens to those small containers ( or even some others as well) near Tea nook, when you have to suddenly apply the breaks or when you are driving uphill or downhill with some angle ? Won't they move and spill the things inside ??😊
Beautiful! Did I miss the fridge?
Please take Care when lifting out the toilet, can hurt your back 😮love your videos ❤

Mate in the same battery space you can add 3-7 KW LFP battery. Which can give you 3 days of off grid capability

I noticed that the US and the UK do vans differently. The UK always blocks off the connection between van and drivers area. So they put the kitchen in front. The US has it open so they put the kitchen on the side. Not sure which is better.
fancy doing that shower routine every morning uugghh
Hi buddy leanne marketing skill and also denial construction skills clearly visible but toilate is not convenient ❤❤❤
Thanks❤ . I love your channel and chemistry.. superb travel plan overall . And it’s gutsy decision to take travel van and modified it as per your convenience. Best of luck and lots of love for future travel journey.. please note I want to connect with you for Vietnam journey .. if it’s ok with you will connect accordingly 😁
