About us and our journey

We are converting this beast of a minibus into a tiny adventure home on wheels. We have grand plans for travel and adventure and are documenting the build each week. We are building in our spare time and need all the help we can get.

With that in mind we love hearing your thoughts in the comments and would appreciate a cheeky thumbs up if you've enjoyed the video.
