Overland Design, Consulting, & Exploration

With over 15 years of van life, driving nearly 1 million kilometers, and filling two passports, I’m eager to share my vast experience.

From extreme cold in the Canadian Arctic to Death Valley’s heat, I’ve navigated it all. I’ve founded an international van building company, customizing vans for diverse needs, and am now crafting a global expedition truck. Let my expertise guide your van build or purchase decision, or join me on an adventure with our rental trucks and guided expeditions.

Off-Grid Vehicle Design & Consulting

Build & Purchase Consulting

I offer comprehensive consulting services tailored to your off-grid vehicle design and purchasing needs. My expertise includes guiding you in selecting the ideal vehicle platform, determining accommodation size based on the number of people, usage frequency, travel destinations, trip durations, and storage for your gear. I also provide insights into essential systems like solar/electrical, plumbing, and cooking/refrigeration requirements to fit your specific needs.

Why choose my services? Designing a van or truck for life on the road demands a holistic perspective. I dive deep into understanding how you plan to use the vehicle, both in the short term and long term, taking into account your budget, performance expectations, travel distances, and maintenance capabilities.

I consider your comfort with uncertainties—like breakdowns, security risks, or getting stranded—and your ability to perform repairs versus the need for support. With me, you’re not just getting a consultant; you’re gaining a partner committed to crafting a vehicle that perfectly suits your adventurous lifestyle.
