VAN-TASTIC

We transformed a Transit van into our dream tiny home – people are always amazed they can even stand up straight inside

A COUPLE who love to travel showed off their tiny transit van, which they transformed to be their home on wheels.

Steve and Audra bought the 2019 high roof van after they were sick of having to make reservations for pricey hotels or sleep in uncomfortable tents whenever they travelled.

, and even though the van itself might look pretty cramped from the outside, but the duo have made the most of the limited space they have.

There's a small kitchen area with plenty of cupboard space for all their food and ingredients, plus a sink to do the washing up.

"For cooking we have a propane camp stove that's a two burner we just pull out.

"It has a two pound propane tank that actually lasts for quite a while," Audra explained.

The camp stove was not only the cheaper option, but it means they can take it outside to cook when the weather's nice.

And even though there's no space for a bathroom in the tiny van, the couple made sure they had plenty of space to store all of their clothes.

Their pet cat, Grey-grey, also lives in the van with them when they're on the move and she even has her own cupboard under the bed with her little box.

It was important for Steve and Audra's bed to fit in the van on it's side to take up as little room as possible.

"Steve is 6ft 2inches and one of the reasons we got the Ford Transit is because he can actually stretch out side to side here, which we thought was important," Audra explained.

Downsizing to the van was a big change for the couple, but now they've embraced the minimalist lifestyle.

"You get rid of the clutter real fast because you simply don't have room for it," Steve said.

One of the main challenges for Audra was adjusting how much food she purchases in one go.

"We used to buy more food and it was cheaper that way, now we have to get smaller bottles of different things.

"It's just something you have to plan out more, but there's a lot more flexibility and you can go wherever you want," she explained.
