We are Bailey and Denise, the voices behind Two with a View. Over the past two years, we’ve lived full-time in two self-built campervans, and throughout this journey, we’ve learned countless lessons, collected unforgettable stories, and discovered valuable tips and tricks along the way. From choosing the right van to the ins and outs of van life, we’ve kept track of it all, and now we’re excited to share it with you here on our blog.
Our goal is to provide you with a comprehensive resource for everything van life. On our blog, you’ll find everything from practical advice on buying and building your own van to tips on how to live on the road with ease. We’ll also share insights into our own experiences, giving you a glimpse of what it’s really like to travel and live in a campervan full-time. Whether you’re just starting to dream about van life or are already on the road, we’re here to help!
Our Diary
We escaped the normal to be able to live on the road. Though there were many lessons to learn, the van life dream became real.
We made this Van Life blog to create a space to share with you our journey, the good and the bad, the tips and mistakes. The things that make this dream our reality.
In the past two years, we have bought two empty vans, to build into a home and live in them. This gave us the freedom to live and travel on the road.
We will share our experiences of building campers to assist throughout the process.
Travelling in a camper is a special type of freedom. The journey can easily become more thrilling than the destination.
If you wish to travel in a van then we have some neat tips to help you make the most of your adventures!
As an aspiring van lifer, it can be interesting to hear others stories for inspiration. We know all to well, how valuable it is to have some insight before stepping into a new lifestyle!
This is a place to find some inspiration from others who have already taken the leap into van life.
