In early 2019, Sahin and I became proud parents of our first daughter. To celebrate her birth, we decided to travel for 2 months with the 3 of us in a self-converted motorhome. After a few months of work, the time had come and we fully enjoyed our months of freedom with our own house on wheels.
A few trips later we decide to share our motorhome with others ...

Our 'house' is built in the cargo space of a Peugeot Boxer from 2012. The car is equipped with a 2.3, 150 hp diesel engine so you can drive smoothly everywhere. On our travels we always had a consumption of between 8 and 8.5 liters. We deliberately chose this model because it is still compact enough to be able to drive and park almost anywhere, but still offers enough space to live in.

Cook:
The cooking area of our motorhome consists of a cooking island with a 3-burner gas fire and a sink with running water. There is also a 40l refrigerator.
You can eat at the extendable table and benches in the car. It is even better if you can take the chairs and table out of the cargo space and eat outside.

Toilet and shower
It is very exceptional for a self-built van that we have a room for showering. In addition, there is also a toilet (porta potti). Just like traveling with a motorhome, showering is an adventure. So don't expect that luxurious shower like at home, but you do have the opportunity to freshen up after one of your adventures.

To sleep
A full double bed is provided at the back of the van. (1m45 x 1m95). This bed also functions as a seat where you can relax.

Closet space
A spacious closet is provided next to the bed for clothes. You can also store enough stuff under the bed and in the sofas.

Garage
Under the bed is a spacious garage. We manage to store 2 racing bikes, a bicycle trailer, 2 hiking backpacks, 4 curver bins with material, a table, 3 chairs (2 camping chairs, 1 baby chair), bicycle helmets, a small BBQ, a crash pad and some other small items. mountains.

Energy
Like all modern homes, our house is equipped with three 100 watt solar panels and a large living battery. This means you don't have to worry about power in the car. In addition, there is a connection to connect the car to a power pole, but in all the months we have already traveled, we have only used this once.
There is an inverter, so there are 2 sockets with 220V available. There are also 7 USB connections so that you can charge devices at different places.

Heating
On colder days you can heat the camper by means of a diesel heater.

Water
35 liters of clean water are provided under the kitchen island. In the storage space there is another 2x10 liter of storage space for water.
The dirty water is drained into a 25 liter jerry can.
If we refill all our water, we usually manage to get through 4 to 5 days without refilling water.

What else is provided:
- cutlery for 4 people
- pans - pots
- 4 drinking cups of cold drink
- 4 drinking cups of hot drinks
- cutting board
- Dish soap
- Detergent - Scrubba laundry bag, washing pins
- coffee pot
- kitchen towel, dishcloths
- small vacuum cleaner
- 2 camping chairs and table
- camper survival guide (detailed explanation about the use of the camper and some travel tips)

If you decide to rent the camper, you can leave your car with us. This can safely be in our driveway.

We hope to receive you soon in our house on wheels.

Annabel, Sahin and Nico
