We’re Sam and Justin.
And don’t forget our four-legged cowboy, Ralphie!

These days, you’ll find the 3 of us criss-crossing North America in our modern, hand-built campervan that we affectionately call "Harry".
So far we've been to 41 States and 8 Canadian Provinces (...and counting!)
​
But just a couple years ago, we were in your shoes.
We loved the idea of zigzagging the USA and Canada in a cozy, compact little campervan, but we were less than impressed with the schlocky, factory-built campervans on the market.
Honestly, most assembly line campervans are no different than their RV counterparts. Just plain tacky, boring and poorly built!
And have you seen the outrageous prices on those things?… Fuggedaboutit!
We were still bound and determined to get on the road in our own little campervan and we knew we could do way better.
So we quickly realized that designing our own campervan from scratch was our only option to get exactly what we wanted on our budget and designed for the way we like to travel.
Long story short: We bought a “plain jane” cargo van. We got to work designing and planning every little detail from scratch.
And we turned our teeny tiny gravel driveway into a makeshift campervan workshop.
Just 9 short weeks later we had done it. We had created the campervan of our dreams!
And the icing on the cake?
We completed our campervan in less than 70 days for less than half the cost of a boring, factory-built campervan.
​
We absolutely love our little home on the road.
Our campervan "Harry" works perfectly for the 3 of us and it's exactly our style!
That's not too shabby, if I do say so myself!
​
We had to go it alone. But now, you don’t have to.
We put on our thinking caps, racked our brains and documented every little nitty-gritty detail that helped us design & plan the stylish, one-of-a-kind campervan of our dreams.
And we’ve packed all of that know-how into a meaty, well-organized system chock full of campervan design goodies that we’re sharing with you: DIY Campervan Design Planner & Toolkit.
​
Happy Vanning!
