Jouw campberbouw adviseur, Juliette

Hey! I am Juliette Schmitz. I travel full time throughout Europe with my partner Lex and our cat Willem in our self convertede camper van.

Here you may read all about Van Life in Europe. You will find information, tips and ideas for your own camper van. Use my pictures and blogs as inspiration to build your own camper, also if you don’t have any building experience! Read tips and tricks about living on the road and what it is like to travel with a cat.

As a technician and experienced van lifer, I love to inspire people to built their own tiny house on wheels and live this lifestyle. I want to show my life by sharing tips, advices and experiences of technical aspects, usefull storing tips and gorgeous locations of Europe.

My goal is to help people build their own camper van, even if they have never held a tool. Also, I want to share all my practical tips so you can also live the life you’ve been dreaming of.

Hugs,

Juliette Schmitz
