Freezer space reveal at the end 👀🧑🏼‍🍳😘

One thing we knew we needed in this van? A bigger fridge and freezer ❄️

Our last fridge was a decent size, but the freezer space was seriously lacking — *enter the Isotherm Cruise 195*

We picked this fridge because:
💪🏽 It’s one of the largest marine fridges that still runs efficiently off-grid

❄️ It has a separate freezer compartment and a total of 195L of space

🤫 It’s super quiet and has a motion-resilient compressor

🚐 It’s built specifically for mobile living meaning it’s durable, low power draw, and road ready

If you live full-time, eat 99% of your meals in, or just love to cook, this fridge is 100% worth the space.

We ordered ours from @vanlifeoutfitters and can’t wait to get it fully installed soon 🤭

We’re turning the garage of our van into a durab We’re turning the garage of our van into a durable, functional space for our systems and gear 🔋🏅

In our last build, we struggled with storage for bigger items — so this time, with a fixed bed, we’ve got way more room to work with. 

After framing around our water tanks, we wanted to protect the space with something rugged and easy to clean. 

We landed on a thick diamond-pattern garage flooring from Amazon and used Roberts 7350 adhesive to secure it. We wanted a clean finish so we added aluminum angle to all the corners and the difference it makes is insane 🤯

If you’re building out a van and want to finish off your garage in an easy, yet professional way - we can’t recommend this combo enough!

Choosing the wrong windows can ruin your van build Choosing the wrong windows can ruin your van build 💔

Too hot to sleep, no airflow, zero privacy… we’ve been there.

Here’s how to pick the right windows for your layout —

Types of windows:
🪟 Fixed windows – They offer great views, but no airflow. They’re great when used in the right place!
🌧️ Awning windows – You’ll have ventilation even when it rains.
🛏️ Bunk windows – You’ll get privacy, more insulation, and airflow all in one
⚡ Hybrid windows – The best of all of the windows for view, airflow, and privacy

Tips for choosing the right window:
💡 Optimal Size & Placement – Choose a window size and position it to maximize natural light without compromising insulation - in a way that complements your layout 
🌬️ Airflow & Temperature Control – Consider a window near your vent fan to allow for a cross breeze. This will keep you cooler in the summer months.
🔧 Seamless Integration – Based on your layout, consider where you’ll want ventilation. Near your kitchen to draw out cooking smells? Near your bed to keep your sleeping area cool? Rear windows for a view?

Windows can seriously make or break your vanlife experience so take the time to plan the type of window and placement of windows for maximum comfort.

Got questions? Drop them in the comments — we’re here to help!
