The post Nick & Raychel Reimer-Hurley are Helping People Travel on a Budget appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>Nick and Raychel spent their early 20s living paycheck to paycheck in Vancouver, and traveling the world seemed out of reach. Something shifted in 2017, when they decided to leave it all behind and embark on an epic journey with only $1,500 each in their pockets.
Since they didn’t have a lot of savings or a trust fund to rely on, they had to get crafty and learn everything there is to know about budget travel, and they now want to share their knowledge with the world.
“I hate that society has made us believe that travel is only reserved for the elite, I hate that regular people who work hard for their money are still spending thousands of dollars in flights, paying too much for overpriced hotels, and not utilizing the resources that we have at our fingertips,” Raychel writes in the couple’s free travel guide.
From booking cheap flights and working abroad to exploring the ups and downs of van life, Nick and Raychel experienced many facets of budget travel. Their desire to live nomadically and avoid high rent costs inspired them to spend some time traveling in a retired ambulance van, but they eventually took a break from it while living and working in New Zealand.

This was when they came up with an idea to convert a 2008 Mercedes Sprinter van into a mobile house. They worked on the renovation every weekend for one year, while working their full-time jobs, and managed to finish all the work for just $13K.
After everything was said and done, Rob and Emily ended up with a mobile house that had everything they needed for cozy living including a shower, kitchen, and even a big size bed.
The couple documented the process of van conversion in a video that can be a great tutorial for anyone who would want to try the same. Check out the video as well as some of the photos of their unique mobile home below.
