This 2 birth campervan is like a home on wheels, it has everything you need to just drive of for weekend breaks and extended holidays, or live in it permanently off grid and save on rent, details as follows.
As you can see in the pictures this has no side windows but it is very light inside with the skylight but if you prefer windows they can be fitted for around $300 - $400
The inside of the campervan has been designed for sleeping, cooking, shower/toilet and storage in mind with main living room area being the enclosed awning.

However, if you are just having an overnight stay you can use the seats in the cab as there is a folding umbrella windscreen shade for privacy.
