In this video, Deyana, a former Division I college soccer player turned van lifer, shares her passion for an active lifestyle and the freedom of the road. 🚐 Step inside Deyana's kitchen, a space that seamlessly blends functionality with style. Admire the micro cement countertops, a novel material she sourced from Smartr in Spain, which adds a modern touch to her van. Discover the convenience of her sink with a detachable faucet, essential utensils, open shelving for plates and bowls, and ample storage for cooking supplies. 🍳 Deyana's cooking setup is a dream for any culinary enthusiast, featuring an induction cooktop, a Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro, and a Nova Cool fridge-freezer combo. Her kitchen epitomizes efficient use of space while not compromising on the essentials needed for creating delicious meals on the go. 🛋️ Explore the multi-functional living area that doubles as Deyana's dining room and workspace. The lagoon-mounted table, adjustable for various activities, and a comfy chair with extensive storage underneath, make for an ideal remote work setup. Deyana's innovative use of space even includes a cleverly concealed mirror on drawer slides for daily use. 💰 Hear about Deyana's journey in acquiring her van, a used vehicle bought in Phoenix for $30,000 with 38,000 miles on it. With an all-in cost of around $55,000, including her DIY build, Diana emphasizes the value of her investment in her mobile home and lifestyle. 🚿 The compact yet fully functional shower, finished with micro cement and stone tiles, showcases Diana's attention to detail. With a Nautilus door and a 33-gallon water capacity coupled with a 12-volt hot water heater, the shower area is ingeniously designed for efficiency and comfort. 🛌 Moving to the bedroom, Deyana highlights her full-size foam mattress, perfect for a restful sleep after a day of adventure. The installation of windows for ventilation and the strategic placement of storage demonstrate her thoughtful approach to van life design. 🔋 When it comes to power, Deyana chose Renogy components for their reliability and ease of monitoring via a smartphone app. Her van is equipped with 600 amp hours of lithium batteries, a 3,000W inverter charger, 400 watts of solar on the roof, and a DC to DC charger for on-the-go battery charging. 🏞️ The garage area of the van is a testament to Deyana's active lifestyle, storing all essentials like a water tank, heater, pump, and electrical components, along with shelves for shoes, tools, and camping gear. 📣 Deyana's journey to van life started after a breakup and a TikTok inspiration. Embracing her independence and love for travel, she took the leap into van life, transforming her life with new experiences and adventures. She encourages others, especially solo females, to trust their instincts and embrace the van life experience.
