- This is the story of my full Van Build!
my tiny home on wheels, Eva!
I went into this as a solo female with no experience and it took me a long time to finish but I am so proud and happy with the end result.

This....this is the ultimate goal when I think about life on the road. Building a space of calm tranquility to heal, rest as well as explore and grow all in the same place. Eva is my absolute favorite build I have come across, and I have seen many over the last few years of researching, wishing and dreaming, for when I am finally able to have my own. You and your story are inspirational and a flicker of hope in a time when the fire seems to have burned out. So thank you, and I'm sending you all the good energy and luck for your travels ahead, wherever they take you.
Thank you my friend!! 💖🥹🫶 I truly appreciate your kindness. Life out of a little van isn’t always glamorous but it can be when things are in alignment! I’m thankful for the 70 sq ft of peace she has provided. And sometimes the headaches she’s given too lol 👩🔧
I’m realizing we can also find these moments of beauty even in the small daily activities. I think having lived life on the road makes me truly appreciate the simplicity of just a little home somewhere close to nature!
I loved seeing the whole process of you building up Eva to your liking and needs, even the parts where you had to stop and prioritize your physical and mental health, you reminded me of how important that is when taking on a long term project, thank you!
Thank you so much for tuning in and acknowledging the part of health! Health is truly our greatest wealth and it’s important to be mindful of it through any project, but also don’t forget to live! 🧘♀️
@SaraDungo I'm truly grateful for your content, thanks to you I know about forest baths, it has made such a positive impact in my mental health, I try to take one at least twice a week😊
A lot of hard work, dedication & discipline. Love & Light, Strength & Honor!
Thank you so much for your kindness 🥹💖🫶
Wow! I’m amazed by your skills. I could never do all that- even when I was your age. Beautiful job.
Anything is possible!! You totally could!
Hi Sara, Great work. I think, you are amazing and You're beautiful and humble.
I admire your strength, vision, persistence, and skill. You are an inspiring person.
Thank you for sharing all of your hard work.
I love this video. Your point of working on Eva allowed you to work on yourself is so profound. Your deliberate and thoughtful approach to life is so refreshing to hear. Thanks for sharing and God bless you. Mahalo.
Thank you so much for the acknowledgment - I believe there’s research on the hand happiness theory where you actually release endorphins by working with your hands! 💖🥹🫶 and thank you for being so encouraging along my journey! Mahalo 🌊💕✨🌌
I love it being a carpenter. 😊.Sara is good.A perfect woman.
Hi Sara... Your videos are very peaceful and calming to watch. You have a well grounded personality.
Thank you so much for your kind words and review! I truly appreciate it! 💖💖
Extraordinary is the first word that comes to mind to describe you.
You are too kind - thank you sooo much!
@@SaraDungo I'm 61 and watch a lot of van life / build stories. Always look forward to yours. You may end up being the inspiration / kick in a back side, to finally get me to give it a shot.
Considering what the van started out as, with perserverance and hard work what it has been transformed into is a stylish home on wheels. You are to be congratulated Sara.
Well done Sara. You are an inspiration to so many.
You are too kind thank you so much! 🥹💖🫶

Really love your home especially when you had the beautiful green plants
Amazing story! And the van is beautiful! I know what it means to build a van while working a full time job..it's so easy to borne out. Especially if you are filming and making videos at the same time like I'm doing...
Thank you for acknowledging that! The filming part always adds an extra layer of time consumption lol and good luck on your build!!
@@SaraDungo Thank you!!!🤗
Super great job girl.👏👏👏
You really did a very nice job on your Van.
It's not the time who counts it is the results after all hard work but specially how you do it.
Drive carefully and have a wonderful time in your car.

Thank you so much 💛
I like this van build. The lady is very handy. God Bless
Thank youuuuu 🥹💖💕
Amazing!
Thank you so much!
New sub here... what a great build. Kept simple and very beautiful.... it can be very overwelming with all the electrical and plumbing yet this way its more than functional and a lot easier.
Thanks for the sub! my goal was to keep it as open and airy as possible :) had to be a minimalist in the design approach. but it has worked well thus far!
UAU! Amazing.
thank you so much 💖
You did an amazing job on your rebuild. You and your family can be exceptionally proud of all the work you did. What adventures come next?
You are really excellent.
You are too kind 🫶💕💖
Great job, great video! You might want to fix the chapters in the description though :)
Such a sick van!
Thank you soooooo much! 🥹🕯️🌌✨🙂
Fantastic job!!! Looks super cozy!
(I have a similar van 🚐. Build in progress! How did you tell where the metal roof ribs were? I’m gonna try a stud finder with a metal option and rig that works. Just curious what you did to figure that out!) -Teresa
Sara, you are similar to a beautiful bird strong and brave flying into the future or driving. Thank you for being an inspiration in this world.
Your comment truly made my day! I’ve really been enjoying watching the birds recently and so I take that to be such a compliment!! 💖🕊️🐣🦜

I’ve always wanted to do van life but I have no skills in buildings or tools so I think my best bet is to buy a van prebuilt lol
I will never understand how google algorithms can be so bad sometimes. I have been watching solo van conversion channels for years and somehow this is the first Ive seen your vids. subscribed immediately of course. Anyway, not to be a creep but I have to admit I was checking out your equipment. haha. Where did you get that straight edge/level!? What a handy idea! Ill be checking out your other videos shortly. keep them comming!
Thank you so much! I made the van so many years ago and borrowed my moms boyfriends level
I’m not sure where he got it but I can ask!
I appreciate you tuning in 🥹🤗💖
Can you provide the link to your Keep Cool insulated bag.
Have you had any issues with the vinyl floor after installation due to the temperature changes of the environment? I've heard that it gets deformed after a while.
I have certain areas where the floor has shifted yes but I’m thinking that it’s mainly due to the constant pressure of stepping mainly in my hallway. It’s never shifted underneath the bed where it’s just storage. It also could be due to the vehicle constantly jumping around and moving while driving down the road, I recommend adding the flooring in after the cabinets so in case you need to adjust anything or if you decide to change the style then it’s easier to
Cute

Are you like some kind of genius?
-Has no experience with electricity.
-Watches some YT videos and wires an electrical system for her whole van.
It was super frustrating trying to learn and took a while before it clicked lol! Thank you for the compliment though
Marry me Sara
thank you for tuning in ☀
Just FYI never eat the ends of bananas my great grandma died by eating ends of bananas because a spider burled into the end of the banana and laid it's eggs and you could eat it and not even know it
Oh my gosh I’m so sorry for your loss 🥺
I’m sorry that you lost your grandma, but it is not by the reason you stated. Spiders laying eggs in the ends of bananas is a long debunked urban myth. Spiders do not lay eggs there, nor would harm come to a person if they were to eat these eggs if they did. Truth is, you probably unknowingly eat spider/insect eggs, nothing dangerous about it.
yeah sure. I don't believe any of this for one minute. CZcams is just full of liars these days
i am flattered you don't believe the work i put into this is true :) makes me happy to inspire others that may not believe in themselves. life is full of possibilities!
Then why watch?
Great skills
I,m a Red Seal carpenter babe you did a increditalbe job I,m proud of you I counldnt of done better you are a ACE
And you are such a beautiful girl. I wish I know you.
