7 BIG Van Build MISTAKES You’ll REGRET Ignoring

Описание: After living full-time in my self-converted campervan, I’ve learned a lot — and made a few costly mistakes along the way. In this video, I share 7 van build mistakes I regret so you can avoid them in your own van conversion. Whether you’re just starting your van build, deep into your DIY campervan conversion, or planning for van life, these tips will help you make smarter decisions and save time, money, and stress.

From electrical system planning to interior layout and practical van life upgrades, I cover what I’d do differently and why it matters for real-world van living. This is all based on experience — not theory.

✅ Mistakes I cover:
– Van Sizing Choice
– Van Layout
– Solar Panel Fluff-up!
– Overpriced upgrades
– And more!

G’day legends, I’m Matthew Storer!
Born and raised in South Australia, I’ve spent the past decade travelling to over 100 countries – from the remote peaks of Central Asia to the vast plains of Africa. But no matter where I’ve been, nothing compares to the raw beauty of Australia.

On this channel, I share the adventures of living, travelling, and exploring Australia in my tiny home on wheels. Expect:
➤ Camping, hiking, fishing & off-grid living
➤ Exploring the outback, coastlines and hidden gems of Australia
➤ Epic road trips & vanlife adventures
➤ Insirational storytelling along the way

My goal is simple: to inspire you to chase your dreams, get outdoors, and make the most of life’s adventures. If you love vanlife, travel Australia, and exploring the outdoors – you’re in the right place 🌏🦘
