That could be you. Your DIY campervan could take you there. I have just finished my second van to RV camper renovation conversion. The first time, I thought I knew what I was doing but I really didn't. I didn't have the help of any sort of guidebook (like you will) when I took on my first project. I thought, "What could go wrong?" Well, I found out what could go wrong! For starters, my girlfriend wasn't the most comfortable settling into the van. Space wasn't laid out well and we were constantly tripping over each other. Not to mention that the first go-around, I didn't create any sort of cabinetry but decided to use milk crates to hold all our stuff. In this second try, I took my time documenting the steps and making better choices. I went a little fancier in the finishes and made the van much more livable for what I hope will be a long-term investment. In my book, I will tell you just how to turn your van into the camper of your dreams.
