Will We Regret Buying a Defender Over a Troopy? Campervan Conversion Plans!

We've gone against everyone's advice and bought a Defender over a Troopy to do our lap of Australia in. Hi! We're Andy and Max - a Kiwi couple based in Sydney, Australia, and we're converting our Land Rover Defender, Riley, to our new home on wheels. As two creatives who will be working while we travel on the road, our Camper Conversion needs to have it all! This video covers our initial build plans, why we chose a Land Rover Defender and the reasons we decided to do Van Life in the first place.
