We are Linnea and Akela. Through the van build, I used my stubbornness and drive to show individuals that they, too, can convert a campervan by themselves and on a budget, with a lot of learning, rolling up the sleeves, and getting to work.
Our goal is to inspire individuals to chase their dreams... to break from societal limitations and live the life they truly desire.

I must say young lady, you have done an incredible job! I have done carpentry, plumbing and electrical and every aspect of building in my lifetime. It's amazing to watch you do the work you have done, and no doubt an amazing task. I applaud you for the way you did this build, the jigs, etc, that you used was enjoyable to watch! I pray you have a blessed and long life and enjoy your partner there. Many happy trails to you! Stay safe and may God bless you! Thank you, and for the enjoyable music you did with the video! Awesome job!

I'm a grown man in the middle of doing my own van conversion and you brought a tear to my eye because I know fully well the effort and motivation required to do the van conversion. All I can say is well done and "Go you Good Girl"! Inspirational effort...

Young lady, you give this old man hope. Hope that our younger generation will take risks, learn new things, and seek out adventure. Great job! 👍🏻You should be very proud of yourself!

I am a 65 yr old women who is starting her build this year and I must say you make us women proud. If you're this smart at such a young age you're going to be a genius at 65 :)

I watched every episode. We need more people like you in this world

I honestly got teary watching this.. I'm a solo woman about to buy a van and start my conversion and I remember ages ago watching your max fan install video, way before I was serious about it, and thinking, maybe I can do it! You have done such a great job, you should be so proud. I wish you many years of happiness and enjoyment with your van! xx

Look at Linnea - building her van by herself like a boss - way to go!!!!

[francisbon]

Your my favorite vanlife YouTuber. I feel like your the only one who actually lives in their van

[Meghanandmatt]

Siiiickkkk! It’s so cool you did this all yourself! We are proud of having done it all ourselves but there were 2 of us and there’s one of you. Amazing Linnea!

You did really well with all of that, but I was especially impressed with your cabinetry from start to finish. That was a lot to learn and you made it look good.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey. At 33 I’m going through a bit of a rebirth after some tragedy and things not going as planned. I appreciate you being brave enough to put yourself out there and also being an inspiration to those around you. Your authenticity is such blessing. Sending you an Akela love and best wishes as y’all continue your journey. Also your build is freaking awesome 👏🏻

I always told my parents growing up that I want to travel the country in a home on wheels. They always looked at me like I was crazy. And I told my Dad that when the day comes he will be helping me with my build. He passed away this year and this dream has been drifting away. I still want to do it but I’m scared to do it alone. But this gives me hope. I hope I can do it as great as yours one day. Your video brought happiness to me.

[MikeD-igzw]

So much work. Glad it made you so happy. Thanks for sharing

[stevenhartley]

Very impressive, always remember what you accomplished and hold onto it when you feel the urge to settle for something, this isn't a peak, it's a start. You have such an amazing life ahead of you and the best is still ahead.
