Sprinter Van Conversion Part 1. How to convert your Van into a Camper! Sailing Ocean Fox Ep 203

This week we finally get around to fitting out the Sprinter as a Camper Van. Like aways it looks like one weeks work but it has taken four weeks in total. Part of it is because it’s a bit more difficult to get parts where we are in Portugal. Nothing like Amazon next day delivery service in the UK. So we lost a lot of time going around small shops to get things here and there. But we are very pleased with the final look which you will be able to see next week on episode 2.
Next week we will take you through all the electrics we put in the Van, it is all from Victron Energy and looks really amazing.

A little bit about us…

We met in the summer 2015, we were introduced to each other by the virtual world. Eighteen months later we were getting married on a beautiful beach on Barbados, bare foot, very simple ceremony just like a dream!

Two days after the wedding laying on the beach, talking about sailing, Carla suggested… why don’t we sail around the world? Guess what Simon said? “Let’s do it” He took it with no second thoughts! And here we are, two years after that day in Barbados, we started our adventure in Croatia.

We made it happen working through all the challenges on the way.

Now we are enjoying this wonderful life, and what a wonderful life it is!

As we travel we will cross less fortunate countries, we would love to help to build a school or a health care centre, anything that these people may need, and in our beautiful world this is taken for granted. But for these people it’s a dream, or may not even be a dream.

We will look around and when the opportunity to help comes we will put our hands and hearts in to it.
