  • This is my third iteration of setting up the minivan as a little home on wheels. I really enjoy figuring out how to get the very best use out of very little space. I think I was able to do that with this one.

    I must have seen hundreds of minivan camper videos, and this one is extraordinary. The layout is creative, and the attention to beauty and a homelike feel is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I’ve shared this video with myself so that I can refer back to it. Thank you for sharing your design with the world!

      Aw, sweet! I appreciate the comment. I didn’t post the video because I care what people think of my space. I shared it because I loved the process of creating it and thought someone else may benefit from seeing the fruit of my efforts. It surprises me how many people take the time to comment with negativity. Why? If they don’t like it then move along. Anyway, it makes my heart smile to read that you enjoyed my little cozy memory making space. I am happy to help anyone with their build or ideas.

    Greetings from Washington, DC again. I read some of the comments. My goodness! People go in hard. But when you put your life on social media I guess that is to be expected. I know the money can be a blessing in this economy but you have to be strong to read those comments. I was shocked how rude people were. I'm a retired Police Officer in DC and we were tought to have thick skin. But people go so hard on your personal space it was heartbreaking. I thought your van had alot of thought that went into it for your lifestyle. I guess I'll really try not to sound so judgmental on my comments on other channels. I really liked the use of space you had going on. I'm a person who likes their thing's around them too if I can travel in my Chevy Tahoe. Your not alone. I like my things too. Stay strong and enjoy YOUR LIFE. Best wishes.

    When traveling with more than one, I can see where this makes sense, as you’re living “out” of it, and not “in” it. You have got just about everything, pretty cool. I don’t have a teenage daughter like you, but I do have two elementary aged kids, and hoping to take them out camping with a mini van / tent. Thanks for the ideas here, and I love the rinse off system. Worth the price imho.

    • @SherryDire
      @SherryDire  Před 2 lety

      Yep, just living out of it...I enjoy being outdoors as much as possible. You could use the same set up I have here but instead of having the storage above the bed on the drivers side, just make that into another bed space for the second child.

    That's exactly what I want to do. Set up my Clam with an awning between. I just left my beautiful lakefront Tennessee site because of rain and this arrangement would have given me the space to ride it out w/o feeling claustrophobic. I'm trying to see the brand name on your awning. Ignore the haters who don't know when to move on.
