A couple who spent £13,000 on buying and renovating an old van to begin a new life together on the road have now started a van conversion business after discovering they enjoyed decorating vans more than travelling.
Former marketing executive Grace Robertson, 28, and camera assistant Charlie Hughes, 28, from Hastings, East Sussex, always knew they wanted to ditch their nine-to-five jobs to travel the world.
In order to cut costs, the duo purchased a van and converted it into a mobile home rather than paying out for planes and hotel rooms.
Grace and Charlie bought their first Ford transit van in June 2019 for £8,000 and then spent a further £4,850 transforming it into their new home.
