VAN / BUS Conversion - BED! Koala Mattress / DIY aluminium bed frame / Gas struts - Toyota Coaster

If you're new here, welcome to our channel! If you're already a subscriber, then welcome back! In this episode we share everything to do with our bed! For some the bedroom is the key part of any build. For us, we worked backwards, why? Because we wanted to make sure we went for there comfiest mattress possible! From Koala! We can honestly say, since being on the road it's the best decision we have made. We also cover why we went with aluminium, how to cut it down and make a bed frame. But also show you how to install gas struts for under bed storage. We're not professionals, but we definitely have vision. So if you also happened to be inexperienced like us with building, then this vlog is for you 😊 Description of materials and purchases: Koala Double Mattress: https://koala.com/en-au/beds-mattress...

Originally from the UK, but also citizens of Australia after living there for 5 years. When we left the UK in 2014, we quickly caught the #travelbug and began making memories through video and photo. Our Instagram is where this all began for us @twosometravellers but our love for video is where we really love sharing our adventures. In 2014 we left the UK to go travelling. In 2015 we moved to AUSTRALIA. In 2016 we got engaged in HAWAII. In 2018 we got married in the PHILIPPINES. In 2019, we decided to chase our dreams! We quit our jobs, sold our belongings and booked a one day ticket to Asia. In 2020 we became Australian citizens! We’re so thankful to be able to live something we love every day and share with you all our previous and upcoming adventures! :) A+J x
