The Clock is Ticking//EP 20 OFF-GRID, Sustainable ProMaster Van Conversion
The clock is ticking and we’re pushing to get our ProMaster van conversion complete. We set a deadline to leave on our first road trip and the day is fast approaching and we still have many details to wrap up.
We need to finish the water system and get those propane lines in and get the window coverings done - just to mention a few tasks. Join us as we scramble to finish so we can get on the road and meet up with a very special person we’re trying to meet up with on the road.

We’re Matt and Kristina, and we’re converting our ProMaster Van into a part time home for us and our dogs so that we can take our off-grid lifestyle on the road. As a professional builder and engineer, we’re taking care to make our van conversion as sustainable as possible.
