My tiny home on wheels - Toyota Sienna camper - takes me camping anywhere

Back in 2023, when I picked up my Toyota Sienna 2014, I already had a plan in mind.

Not just a family van… but something more.

Before cutting a single piece of wood, I spent quite a bit of time planning the layout -

trying to think through how everything would fit and work together,

and avoid as many mistakes as possible.

Of course… a few still happened 😄

But having a plan made a big difference.

Then the build began.

Evenings, weekends, a lot of small steps…

First came the bed.

Then a way to sit during the day.

Then storage… power… and eventually - even a sink.

At some point, it stopped feeling like a project…

and started feeling like a small space you can actually live in.

Now it’s set up for trips around British Columbia and Alberta, Canada -

pull over somewhere quiet, make a coffee, watch the water, stay the night.

No rush. No constant packing. Just… being there.

Looking forward to camping season 2026!
