Okay, it’s been a while—April was my last post, eek! So, what have we been doing for the last four months?
Well, we’ve been tackling what we think will be one of our biggest challenges in “bus life”—storage. We’re trying to leverage every spare millimeter of space we can find.
For those of you who just want to cut to the chase, here’s what we’ve created:
First, a quick video of the finished cupboard on the passenger side:
And here’s the drivers side cupboard:
We also added some storage in the rear, under the back of the bed. This is a place to store our motorcycle helmets, gloves, and other gear, with tools stored below that.
Last but not least, we created a storage area for our tire-changing tools under the rear bumper. While we don’t have a video of it in action, here are a couple of photos of the wheel tools storage:
The storage open:

And closed:

So, not much progress, right? Maybe just a weekend’s work? Well, this is what we started with—a big load of nothing but space.

We think we’ve done a pretty good job. There’s also space for a drawer that can be accessed from inside the bus, measuring about 1m long by 700mm wide and 300mm deep.
We’ve taken many more photos. If you’ve got nothing else to do, the whole album is here on Google Photos:
