Vanlife; Measure Once, Cut Twice

Two Retirees, an Empty Van, & Lots of Duct Tape.
We’re Joe and Jocelyn- Newly retired and we thought converting a cargo van into a camper sounded like a reasonable next chapter.

Spoiler Alert: neither of us knows what we’re doing.

This channel follows our real-life van conversion, road trips, and retirement adventures—mistakes included, tools occasionally misused, and duct tape applied with confidence. We learn as we go, laugh a lot, and prove that retirement doesn’t require perfection… just curiosity and a sense of humor.
