We bought our van in July 2022 and have worked on it solidly for 9 months, this shows you 9 months of achievement in 9 minutes using Timelapse, if only van builds were that quick. :)

About Us
Welcome to Life Adventure Projects, we’re Andy and Sophie and last year we made the decision to work on changing our lives for the better. We’d grown tired and weary of the rat race, only living for the weekend or looking forward to a holiday once a year, so we made a plan to start working on projects to improve our lives.

@richpeas1924 Год назад

Having watched you guys from the start & seeing each stage of the project it's not until you see the time-lapse, you realise how much work you've put into the build 🛠 give yourselves a pat on the back for what you've achieved so far 👏

@lifeadventureprojects Год назад

Thanks buddy, as always really do love your positivity and support for us! That beer won’t be long now! ❤️❤️🙌

Great to see a, quick summary like this, reminds me of how far you have come. Which is a very long way. As Churchill said, this is not the end, it is not the beginning of the end but it is the end of the beginning

Love that quote, thank you Dad! Thank god it’s the end of the beginning finally! 😊😊

Great to see it change so much in the short vid. This is also why time-lapse make it look way way easier than it actually is! Stick at it guys you're doing great 👍 I got my fingers 🤞 for you having a night out in it fairly soon 😊

@lifeadventureprojects Год назад

Thank you! Yeah a night out is not long now as we have ordered the mattress, exciting times!! You are right about Timelapse, I watched it and even thought we made it look easy… it so isn’t though haha

Did you include all the cockups 🤣🤣🤣 Just kidding. Great to see the progress. I'm learning a lot from you both and garnering that energy to get my own project started.

@lifeadventureprojects Год назад

Haha oh Wagner, I could make a video just on van build cock ups, in fact that could be a fun video! 😂😂 Get going on that project, we believe in you!

@simoncawley6619 5 месяцев назад

Wow watching this time laps sort of hides the truth. It isn't as easy as you think. You have done amazing work on your conversion. Watching you videos and seeing the highs and lows. I didn't get that with this video. It made you look like camper conversion pros which of course you will be once you completed this conversion. Looking forward to more videos.

Thanks again Lee, we owe you a couple pints so looking forward to meeting you on the travels! We are feeling good about the van at the moment, feels like we got over a hurdle. But oh boy what a learning curve!

@djrichylaurence8991 10 месяцев назад

Handy if you can find a nice van to start with. I do hope that isn't the 2.1 engine in that. The 2.7 straight six was the best Sprinter engine. Could pull a full load easily and fuel consumption was good for such a powerful van.

@billienomates1606 2 месяца назад

Fascinating to watch, like n sub. 👍

@lifeadventureprojects 10 месяцев назад

Oh my gosh - van siblings perhaps haha! Are you planning to convert it?

@spinosauruswearingboots4156 10 месяцев назад

Yes in the early stages of converting it. Shall go back and watch your back catalogue.

@darthsarcastus1064 4 месяца назад

Hi you two, I have a suggestion for your van build that I have seen on a few vans over the years. Perhaps think about fitting a small combination key safe somewhere accessible, but not obvious, to the van. That way if you decide to, let's say, go paddle boarding for example you don't have to take the van keys out on the water with you. Simply lock them in the key safe and enjoy the water without the fear of the key disappearing to the sea floor and being stranded. I've seen some vans where the owners have had a small panel cut and hinged to make a door then mounted the key safe behind it to hide the safe from inquisitive people but I guess under the van or behind a bumper could be an easier solution.

@lifeadventureprojects 4 месяца назад

Hey 👋🏻 Really like this idea, so basically a safe under the van out of clear sight. Legendary suggestion! Thank you ❤️❤️

@christiandiazcarmona3632 10 месяцев назад

@kenyoung9802 11 месяцев назад

Great. Content Nice Work , some people enjoy Timelapse format but really difficult to follow work being done on van ..Any Chances of slowing down maybe to one third of speed on same vid ?? Thanks

@lifeadventureprojects 10 месяцев назад

Hey Ken! Thanks so much for tuning in and leaving a comment, we really appreciate it! That’s a good question - I’ll bring this to Andy’s attention and see if we can! Thanks 😊

@lifeadventureprojects 10 месяцев назад

Andy has just mentioned that you can actually change the speed that you watch the video on RU-vid - so you’ll be able to slow it down on there!

@kenyoung9802 10 месяцев назад

That Would be awesome , I can Check back again soon thanks

@trevstylee99 9 месяцев назад

I am looking to make a start on a project like this, i just wondered how long it took you if it was evenings and weekends?

@lifeadventureprojects 9 месяцев назад

Hey 👋🏼 😊 thanks for your comment. So we’ve had the van since July 2022 and we’re still going with it, so over a year so far! We reckon another couple of months and we should be finished. We’ve only really done weekends on it and obviously have had some other things to do here and there, but it definitely has taken longer than we expected!

@trevstylee99 9 месяцев назад

@lifeadventureprojects cool. I won't be done anytime soon then 😂. I'm going to be looking for a van in the next few weeks, hard to come across anything that isn't white though!
