    VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
    Jess and Shawn decided to leave Orange County and follow their passion for travel and climbing. The unexpected freedom was quickly felt, as well as the strong community in the world of tiny homes on wheels.
    Their self-converted van is primarily made from beautiful reclaimed wood from an old fence. The kitchen was thoughtfully designed with a countertop that covers the three-burner stove top and a faucet that can swivel over the sink and the stove! They installed a full bathroom with a DIY toilet and stand-up shower.
    A Murphy bed drops down over the dining area, and Jess has a massive closet for clothes and jewelry! These two highly suggest significant planning if you’re looking into a conversion build, and their planning shows in this functional build!

    After re-running the video, I finally figured out that the big tan bolster on the left at 7:04 was the "filler" for their head/pillow section (which could be seen around 8:10 when she pulled down the movie screen) - neat!

    Adore your build and how well it was thought out. I'm totally swooning over all your barn wood and other reclaimed wood. It is REALLY awesome and artistic. I also love how you oriented the sink so you can fill your pans. I don't think I have ever seen anyone do that intentionally in all the thousands of tiny homes videos I've watched (On or off wheels).
    I seriously would be living and loving that lifestyle, if I weren't stuck in a hospital bed nearly 24/7, 365, since 2016 when I had a serious head injury from passing out. I don't recall how long I was in a coma then semi-coma. But it made me forget how to walk. No pity parties here, I've been working my way back to hopefully walking again, or at least being able to take complete care of myself, cause I've seen some totally rad tiny homes for paraplegics. Until then it's PT and OT daily, mostly on my own since insurance only covers way too little IMHO.
    I guess I relate so well to your rock climbing adventures, cause I've been doing a ton of climbing myself, some just small pebbles, to hills and mountains, cause the Dr.s told my family I most likely would remain in a coma/semi-coma when they had to put me in an acute care skilled nursing home, after my hospital stay. Ha!! They (the docs) sure as hell didn't know how wrong they were or who they dealing with. I won't give up, no matter how long it takes to reach MY definition of max medical improvement. LoL!!!
    I'm headed over to subscribe @ your CZcams site cause I don't have any of your other soc media sites. Thanks for sharing your creativity, your lifestyle and wonderful home. You've been an inspiration regarding your build and what comes from great planning.

    • @cruxandbeta
      @cruxandbeta Před rokem

      Yep-it’s side to side (left to right, or driver side to passenger side…) the large bench is part of the bed (either the top or the bottom) depending on if we’re leaning a certain direction. Does that make more sense? The other bed orientation people build would be front to back because they’re taller and can’t fit the way we have it.
