Meet Erin Elise, a budget minded van dweller who took a 2013 Ford Transit Connect and with less than $500 transformed it into a modest but cozy 24-square-feet of mobile living space.
Often when van-life is portrayed on social media, it involves a souped up Sprinter with a buildout budget that will make you dizzy (not to mention fuel prices). Turns out living in you car can be quite pricey. Erin took the opposite approach with a refreshingly economical approach that resonates with every frugal bone in my body.
Just a basic no non-sense vehicle that allows Erin the freedom to explore. Love it.
If you are considering an equally budget minded traveling lifestyle, you should follow Erin as she provides receipts on how much spends during her adventures and a realistic appraisal of the downsides of living in a van. In seven-week span she only spent $1,688….that is truly rad!
