Nomad Brads Stealth U-Haul Tiny Home is Surprising and Innovative

Published: Feb. 11, 2022, 11 a.m.

I\u2019m excited to share this conversion with Nomad Brad because I think that we all have a lot to learn from vanlifers in the tiny house space. Brad converted an old U-Haul, which is something that not a lot of vanlifers are doing, and we\u2019ll get into why it makes a lot of sense and some of the unique things that Brad has done. There is a lot to learn in this inspiring conversation, no matter what type of tiny house dwelling you\u2019re interested in.
