Hey friends!🌞 I turned my 2018 VW Tiguan SUV into a comfortable and cute camping set up! The conversion only cost me just over $130CAD. That cost takes into account the wood and screws I used to build the platform in the back seat, as well as the self inflatable camping mattress.

Other costs to take into consideration, fabric for window coverings and velcro tape. I purchased a large curtain from Ikea for about $18 and cut the curtains to size ( I had lots of extra fabric ). The velcro tape was about $12 on amazon.

Even though the RV thing didn't work out you're still going great and making the most of the situation. So PROUD of you for that. Ily

@vintagejudie_ Год назад

A roof rack storage container would be game changer for the top of ur suv 😊

@zenoobah Год назад

Lots of “we” 😏 omg! So excited for your adventure!

@yahyah0201 Год назад

I want to live your life … 🥺 You honestly inspire me to be a better version of myself. What you put into self care, your body’s fuel and your mental health is the level im trying and working on being at. You are amazing girly ! So proud of you and know you do more impact than you know ! You keep me sane sometimes just by watching your videos ♥️

@user-vn6xo2tc9r Год назад

JULIAAAA HIII YOU BEAUTIFUL BEAN, you are one of the most resilient and inspiring individuals out there! So thankful for you and this content and I love watching your dreams come true! Thank you for sharing ✨☀️🧡🔆

@lisaharbich8694 Год назад

Hey :) I was just wondering: why do you say "we" instead of "I" so very often? Is that a North America thing? (Just me, asking as a non-native from Germany who is confused 🙈) Good luck car.-camping though! hope it'll be fun and you won't feel lonely or isolated💙

@danika6850 Год назад

A lot of RU-vidrs do this to make you feel more “included” in the video or their life, but I have a feeling she’s not alone on this trip? She did say while driving she puts the cooler that’s in the front seat in the back by the bed.

Hello from you big internet sis from Florida. 1st I want to tell you that I’m incredibly proud of you for finding a way to follow your dreams! 2nd I want to tell you to get some bug spray! And one or 2 citronella oil burning lamps. you can pour the oil back in the bottle when you travel and they really do help keep the bugs away. You don’t want to look back and not remember anything from your 2 months because all you can remember is putting cortisone on your skeeter bites. Big love! 💜💛

@tonisharp8747 Год назад

@brandoncuevas8354 Год назад

This excites me so much. I’ve been dying to do this for the longest time. This video really helped push me to want to do it more! I have the same car and so I’ve been searching but this is the very first video i believe with a 2018- and up!!

@kaelynmarie3277 Год назад

I would love to see what you eat while on the road

@alexandrachaffanjon2226 Год назад

Such a cool transformation Julia! I can't wait to see how you're cooking on the trip. Just wondering if you open the windows a bit at night for fresh air circulation or if you keep them closed? The curtains are 👍!

@juliaayers111 Год назад

I keep them closed because of bugs and mosquitoes! But also for safety reasons as well! 😅🦟

@carleymills322 Год назад

I love all your videos and just adore your sweet and playful vibe in general, BUT DAMN this video is my favorite ever! I feel like we’re bffs and I’m so inspired and ready to live my vegan hippie dreams and convert my car into camper and explore the world! It just makes my gypsy heart so happy! I’m sure this was far from easy- as I saw your last video having to give up the trailer idea 🥺 BUT LOOK AT YOU GO! You are doing the damn thing! You were thrown challengers and obstacles and kept going- remember the universe rewards those who are brave! I was all hype watching you measure and get the saw out! Also like kudos to you for the way that you deliver information in such an accessible and realistic way. It seems quite natural to you, but I just wanted to point out that is a gift! Anywho I hope this trip is everything you dreamed of and more and may you be protected, guided, and blessed in your travels to come! Ahhh have so much fun! Much love! 🤗☮️🤗☮️🤗☮️

@rebeccaleah7706 Год назад

I've been wanting to try car camping since the pandemic started! I'm also from Southern Ontario and own a VW Tiguan. Looking forward to seeing where you end up exploring so I can one day try it on my own as well!

@zar187 10 месяцев назад

Just lay the seats add some camping pads and your good to go!

@linad.7257 Год назад

I hope you have a wonderful trip. Would be intersesting to see how your car changes in the next months. It just seems like you have way to much stuff with you but thats very personal so hope you're happy with it. I've lived in the car for almost half a year with a friend and we had kinda the same amount of stuff you have as a solo traveler :D Save travels and greetings from Germany

@Eatwithme77 Год назад

❤️☺️ had to rewatch it today

@juliaayers111 Год назад

Thank you for your support💛✨😘

@stephenhill2404 Год назад

Nice video but a couple of questions: 1. Where do you keep the rear seats you took out and what did you do about the rear seat belt warning signs? 2. How long are you travelling for? 3. I would like to see your cooking set up because you have a lot of cooking pots and pans etc. 4. How do you anchor all that stuff down in case you have to jam the brakes on? 5. What's the tent for? Thanks!

@amyp5388 Год назад

Since you need to sleep with your windows cracked for airflow, I recommend getting window screens so the bugs don’t get in.

@lisanorman1181 11 месяцев назад

I think you’re adorable and you just help me make my decision as a 65-year-old woman to do the same thing! I’ll share with you I found a netted shelf type envelope that sits on your ceiling inside your car that’s handy for towels, clothes etc. I saw it on Temu if you’re interested. Good luck to you keep up the good work!

@chelseadanielle1464 Год назад

Love your setup and all the thought you put into it! Looks super cozy and practical at the same time. I hope you’re still loving it on the road!

@zar187 10 месяцев назад

Very cool, but listen i have a 2018 Tiguan i’ve camped out of about 50 times or more now. First i used to just lay my seats flat and place twin air mattress in the back and it fit like a glove but didn’t give me much head room. I’m a 6’2” male, 180lbs. Then i got my rooftop tent and i never slept in my car for many many months on my camping excursions, but honestly all the work you did really could have been done easier with just leaving the seats in and slighting leveling the back truck to the seats with lay very very flat, i can sleep on one side with the passenger seats pushed up, yiu can still use the void under the seat for storage anyhow, cool but very overkill unless you make a drawered camper buildout, which is how i got led here by an AI chatbot, cause i’m want a backup sleep spot when i’m in an urban area.

@sonnenlichtstereo9663 Год назад

I recommend the documentary Our Planet. This forest and nature is the work of a higher being than man. So I figured if everyone would spend €5 to protect Borneo's tropical rainforests, that would be a good thing. That's possible with Greenpeace. ✌️

@therealCodyCapps 8 месяцев назад

I wondered if anyone actually turned this car into a living space. I have a ‘21 Tiguan, I’ve really considered just going and camping out somewhere to get away from it all. But everything else is crazy expensive. I definitely wondered about the bed situation because those seats when they’re folded down are hard 😂. How much did you rely on the car for power? I like the way you put up the “blinds” I had the idea of running bungee cords and getting the black out shades. Your setup looks very cozy!

@lanabelaya131 Год назад

Wow u r amazing !

@lillikins123 Год назад

Are you into foraging? Spicily mushrooms? That set up and the chance to get to look for edibles more is my dream!

@angryeltrucker6326 Год назад

On hot days/nights do you keep your car running with the AC to stay cool?

@juliaayers111 Год назад

No I never do that, on hot days I found shade. And the nights truly cool down

Your tailgate hinges looks like they're rusting up

@cathydiamond6573 Год назад

I missed the news about the SUV. And the trailer..... also no link for the reusable bags. You keep saying we. Not alone? Good luck.

Bro. I just tried to sleep in the back seat of a Tiguan and that leather is HARD. This chick is trying to build a bed back there? She's trying to get that long wood, isn't she?
