So I've been m.i.a. from here for a while. I ended up kind of reinventing some of my life. I've missed it here! So I figured I would start with a n...

This is incredible! I've definitely thought about doing this while camping, but I think that what I haven't figured out is the wireless internet situation. I feel like it might be pretty costly to pay for hotspot, not to mention the possibly less-than-ideal bandwidth speed. Wouldn't hurt to try for one day, though :)
Ya so far other than calls I’m finding that it’s not too bad. I have unlimited data on my phone but 30gb of hotspot. So I do the zoom calls on either my phone or when I’m hooked up to WiFi. I leave the hotspot for minimum stuff and so far it’s working out well
I think I'll be investing in the Weboost. I've heard a lot of good things about it from other Vanlifers for boosting WiFi signals, especially those who work on the road.
Let me know how it goes with that. I've heard great things abiout it.
Your link was shared with me because I've been researching van life for a little over a year. When I first saw your van before I scrolled down, I said to myself, "Oh he has a van like Chrome's." And then I scrolled and you mentioned him. I follow his channel! I love him and I follow a lot Vanlifers on IG. That's so awesome you did that. When the virus started, that kinda put my van dreams on hold. I live in a hotel right now. I'm hoping that I can get a van before my birthday or at least before winter comes. *Forgot to add that I was going to be driving out in my van to Scottsdale where my godson lives. Kinda bummed that I couldn't do that. How much solar and batter power do you have that runs the fan and the George Foreman grill?
Ha ha what a small world! I’m actually in Phoenix. Just a few miles from Scottsdale. I think you should do it! It’s been awesome. The heat is no joke but I can handle it most nights. If you are able to travel more, the a hour or two outside of AZ is nice and cool. I’m running 3 x 100 watt panels, and 2 x 200 amp hour batteries. Renogy. It’s given me plenty of power to run my fans constantly, the grill, my fridge and charge my laptops. As long as I have sunny days then I’m good. I was able to get it done pretty quick by myself working hours after the kids went to bed. It was a lot of work but I love it.
What an awesome idea!
This looks great.
What comes to my mind immediately: Do you use public restrooms or how do you manage this?
And how do you store the fresh water?
So public restrooms and plus I live close to home. I have a grey water tank too if I had to pee and couldn’t hold it 😜
"Having a quiet place to work from has been a huge improvement to work life." Oh yeah man I hear you! Greetings from the beautiful Panama, where I finally have these places. But mostly without other humans around, it's better! ;)
This is the coolest workplace in the universe:) !
Wow that is a huge compliment. Thank you!
This really great idea than sitting the same place and code every day.
Woah, that looks awesome!
Thank you! I appreciate it.
I love it!
Thank you!
I read "kids" then instantly related. This is absolutely genius!!! Must continue reading.
Well thank you!
The perfect balance between home office and beeing a digital nomad.
Very nice.
Really nice.
Thank you!
This is some breaking bad stuff! Lol! This is a great idea to maintain a work-life balance. Awesome!
ha ha. Yes, it definitely helps to keep me balanced.
WOW, This is amazing.
Nice build!
We are just embarking on the possibilities of the van conversion world. Our goal would initially be long weekend to week long travel - likely 3-7 days. Some day in the future we may consider longer month or 2 long trips.
I've been actively looking to purchase a Sprinter for conversion and have come across several passenger (not cargo) models.
So far I'm just thinking about whether to look for a conversion company or do everything myself using Van2b van conversion solutions for DIYers.
