Cozy self-built camper with all comfort

At the beginning of 2019, Sahin and I became proud parents of our first daughter. To celebrate her birth we decided to travel around 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' was built in the cargo area 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 trips we always achieved a consumption of between 8 and 8.5 liters. We deliberately chose this model because it is still compact enough 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. A 40l refrigerator is also provided.
You can eat at the extendable table and benches in the car. It is of course even better if you can remove the chairs and table from the cargo area and eat outside.

Toilet and shower
Very exceptional for a self-build van is that we have a space provided for showering. There is also a toilet (porta potti). As traveling around with a motorhome should be, showering is an adventure. So don't expect that luxurious shower like at home, but you do have the opportunity to freshen up shortly 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 for a while.

Closet space
Next to the bed is a spacious closet for clothes. You can also store enough items under the bed and in the sofas.

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

Energy
Like all modern homes, our house is equipped with solar panels and a 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 that there are 2 sockets with 220V. There are also 7 USB connections so that you can charge devices in different places.

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

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

What else is provided:
- specifications
- pans - pots
- 4 drinking cups of cold drink
- 4 drinking cups of hot drinks
- cutting board
- Dishwashing liquid
- Detergent - Scrubba laundry bag, laundry pins

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