Hi there folks.
My name is Tomas, i come from and live in Norway
I've been reading these pages for some time, getting inspiration to start my own vanlife, I lived in different tiny spaces before, tents, tarps, caravan and cabins.
The main reason for me to live in a van is that i already live a nomadic kind of life, but i need to feel at home and dont have my stuff stored all over the country.
For me, one of the biggest symbols of being at home is having a bookshelf with my books in, and its been a while since i had that.
Space for bookshelf allocated 
I am selfemployed as a handyperson, i practice tradidional handcrafts like logbuilding, different carpentry projects and at times i take employment in kindergartens.
I recently bought a 2000 Iveco Daily with 216000km, and i have started the process of converting it and downsize my belongings...
The van was converted and registered as a campervan in 2004 so a lot of the stuff is there already, like windows, solar system, awning, swiveling seats etc, there was also the usual camping stuff like hot and cold water heater, refrigerator, but i am cutting these out and going lo-tech, so they ended on finn.no (Norways Craigslist)
Rust never sleeps
That was a little bit about me, i hope i will be active and give and receive from this great community.
Peaceful greetings, Tomas
