Do you like storage solutions for your minivan camper conversion? I wanted to moved my Jackery 1000 to this area next to the kitchen cabinet so I thought up this mini platform/shelf. But to get it to work, I had to take off one of the drawers in my three drawer plastic storage unit. I previous painted these drawers green and I will paint the added shelf to match. And because my vanโ€™s Jack and tire iron are located in the panel on the left in this area, I will be adding hinges to the cabinet side of this new shelf and removing the mega you can see here on the left. This will allow me to raise up this shelf when I need to access my Jack. Still a work in progress. #mellownomadicadventures #mellownomadic #nomadicadventures #mellownomads #minivancamperconversion #minivancamper #minivanconversion #minivanlife #minivanlifediaries #minivanadventures #vanlife #vanlifediaries #nomadiclife #nomadicmovement #weirdosunite #minivanmovement #minivancamperclub #stealthminivan #stealthcamping #minivancamping #boondockinginminivan #minivanlovers #nomadiccommunity #youtubecreator #contentcreator (at Louisville, Kentucky) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChLd2JNuNoG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Are you in the #minivancamperclub ? If so, then you know all too well that space is limited. And that also means that you may enjoy hearing about this folding, micro, camp chair! I am super thankful to have received this as a birthday gift this year! And just in time as my previous camp chair had recently wore out and broke. This camp chair has a small footprint when itโ€™s folded up and stored in its storage bag. The frame of the chair reminds me of tent poles. They are all connected with elastic type cording. I will create a video over on my @youtube channel that shows the setup and breakdown of this chair. I love the small footprint it has! Perfect for Carol the Caravan! You can find these chairs at Target.

Are you interested in visiting the National Parks? Here is a look back at some of my National Park trips over the last year in celebration of #nationalparkweek 1 - New River Gorge, West Virginia 2 - Gateway Arch, Missouri 3 - New River Gorge, West Virginia 4 - Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee I traveled to these National Parks in my self-designed and self-built minivan camper conversion which is a 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan named Carol. I have previous carpentry and design experience and with the help of some YouTube videos, I was inspired to build my van into a camper van! One thing Iโ€™ve learned is that a van build can be as expensive or as cheap as you want it to be. The biggest challenge I first faced was having the vehicle to convert. Of course I had my eye on a high roof cargo van, however even the used ones were hard to find and had high price tags. I decided my best course of action would be to start with where I was and with what I had. So there I was, living in Kentucky and I happened to own a minivan. So thatโ€™s what I started with and honestly I love the small footprint of the minivan. I love the fact that I can travel to anywhere I can drive to and that my home on wheels is always with me for when I need to catch some shut eye. Because of my minivan, I have been able to start traveling more, meeting new people, and seeing the National Parks! Comment below what park is your favorite OR what park you really want to visit! ๐Ÿ‘‡ #nationalparksrock #nationalparkjourney #nationalparkspassport #newrivergorgenationalpark #newrivergorge #greatsmokymountainsnationalpark #greatsmokymountains #gatewayarchnationalpark #gatewayarch #mammothcavenationalpark #mammothcave #minivancamperconversion #minivancamperclub #minivancamper #minivanconversion #minivan #minivanadventures #minivanlife #minivanlifediaries #vanlife #mellownomadicadventures #mellownomadic #nomadicadventures #nomadicmovement #weirdosunite #minivanlifemovement #minivancamping #minivancampervan #campervan (at United States) https://www.instagram.com/p/CclYCjEv1eH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
