Welcome to Mel’s Big Van Small World — formerly Known as Mels Van Life . Home for DIY campervan builds, and the honest truth about building and living in your own self built campervan.
Join me as I convert my Mercedes Vario into a full-time off-grid camper van, tackling every DIY job myself — from insulation and electrics to water systems and woodwork. No fancy workshop, no sponsors pulling the strings.
