Subjects / Van life & camper conversion
Best books to learn Van life & camper conversion, in order
A conversion is a small engineering project, so read the planning and layout books first to lock a floor plan around how you'll actually live and travel. Then tackle the build systems in dependency order, insulation and framing, then electrical, then water and ventilation, because each layer hides the last. Save the full-time-life and road-logistics books for when the van is built and the real questions begin.
