Van life refers to a lifestyle choice where individuals, couples, or families opt to live in a van or converted vehicle full-time, part-time, or for extended travel periods. People adopt van life for various reasons including financial savings, a desire for minimalism, the appeal of nomadism, the joy of traveling, or simply the desire for a change in lifestyle. Many in the van life community purchase and convert cargo vans, school buses (often referred to as “skoolies”), or other large vehicles into comfortable living spaces. These conversions often include sleeping areas, kitchen facilities, storage, and sometimes even bathrooms. Van Life has a strong online and offline community. Social media platforms, especially Instagram and YouTube, have popularized the lifestyle, with many “van lifers” sharing their journeys, tips, and experiences.
