One of the best parts of our job is hosting intimate, community-style meet-ups. This week we were excited to host one of our most interesting and informative meetups of the season. We gathered #vanlifers and van builders from all over the Front Range to hold an intimate Van Life Panel at the picturesque Boulder Adventure Lodge, located a short drive west of Boulder, Colorado.
We brought together a group of five van builders and five #vanlifers to answer questions and talk about all things #vanlife. We shared tips from the road, helpful minimalist life hacks, tips on how to build a van and much more! It was so interesting and informative that we wanted to share some audio highlights with you.
Our expert van build panel:
Jon with Native Campervans
Matt with Titan Vans
