If you're the type of person that loves to watch travel vlogs, DIY tutorials, and architectural content, you've probably stumbled across the subsection of the internet known as “van life”. People all over the world are converting normal cars, minivans, and passenger vans into their full-time living quarters (check out this video that has over 15 million views from just a few months ago). It has it’s downsides, but the mass appeal of being able to travel anywhere, and live from your mode of transportation has been beyond captivating as of late. Van life is more than just people converting vehicles into functional homes. It's a community dedicated to self-sufficiency and freedom in all its many forms.

Because of this, van life appeals to people from all walks of life. It speaks to those who are looking for minimalism and want to try living with less so that they can experience more. It draws in people who love the outdoors and want to be able to go off-grid for weeks at a time, so they can explore rivers, forests, and mountains. Some van lifers are students, and others are digital nomads. Some people are contract workers or travel nurses. Van life draws in folks from all walks of life because it lets individuals maintain the same standard of living no matter where their career or interests take them.
