Turning Our VAN into a CABIN with a DIY Roof Build / Buying a 47 year old farm car! What is it?

Welcome back to our remote piece of farm land in the Cederberg Mountains! We are Michael & Acacia, we traveled South Africa in our van for over 3 years and finally found this space to park our vans and build a tiny homestead. This week we share the toughest project we’ve ever worked on! Building a roof over our van to create shade is vital for the summer heat that’s arriving soon. We purchased all the wood and used our cars as scaffolding to lift the 6meter wooden beams and bamboo sheets ontop. We also move our solar onto the roof to get a better angle from the sunshine. An unexpected break in roofing happens as we decided to buy a farm truck! We take a 2 hour drive to view the vehicle that is 47 years old - a 1978 Land Rover Series 3, is this a good idea!? These were two huge upgrades for us and we can’t wait to enjoy our new ride and the shade around our van. Thanks to Stellar Lighting for the Vintage Solar string lights that bring a warm glow to our space at night For more daily updates find us on Instagram @wanderers_and_whiskers #offgridliving #vanlife #diybuild #livingofftheland
