Mountain Lodge Van Conversion for a SOLO Artist & LARGE Dog! | Cozy Promaster 136 wb Van Tour
HI FRIENDS!! I am SO happy to finally be sharing a complete tour of my van, Brunswick! This DIY conversion took about 10 months to complete & the whole build series is on my channel if you’d like to see more!
Brunswick is a 2018 RAM Promaster 1500 136” WB High Roof!
This van was designed & built for full-time living with my 85lb Australian Shepherd, Teller! As a traveling photographer, this van has been perfect for getting me where I need to go & keeping me out in nature longer. This journey has been such a blessing, and it makes me so happy to share it with you all 🫶
Thank you for watching, & stay safe, everyone!!
