The chaos of modern life can be a bit overwhelming. Maybe that's why so many of us feel this pull to minimize our lives and break out of the rat race. These next five homes-from hobbit holes to earthships-really get my creative wheels turning!

We've officially been full-time van lifers for more than a year! When we began our van conversion, we weren't sure exactly what we would need for full-time van living, but we had a pretty good idea. There were several things that we waited an unnecessary amount of time to purchase, and the small investment made a world of difference! Here are eight essentials to include in your van build! 

I have to confess, we are a little obsessed with the tiny house movement. There are so many alternative ways of living & making something uniquely your own. These skoolie’s have us dreaming of cozy spaces and maybe even more kiddos, haha!

I remember spending hours on Instagram scrolling through images of converted vans and dreaming of what life would be like once we finally took the plunge and built our own. I knew there would be things that would change, but we were ready for it! Or at least we thought we were. 

TGIF! I hope you all are gearing up for a beautiful weekend of some sort of exploration. The vanlife community is growing like crazy, and we thought it would be fun to share some of our favorite vanlifers  with you so you can follow along too!
