Debie – Debie The Van (selfbuild)

Debie is a brand new self-converted Mercedes Sprintervan (2019) made by a Ghent couple, Dennis & Yana:

Yana and I started building our van in February 2019, after a lot of blood, sweat and tears we left on our first big trip in September 2019. Debie introduced us to the perfect 'vanlife' during our trip to Greece:
breathtaking places, expansive views of the sea, beers with other vanlifers / travelers, ... Debie gave us a 2 months carefree holiday.

After our trip, Yana and I decided to share Debie with other travelers. With a little fear in our hearts, we are now renting out our bus for the first time. We expect that we travel with the right kind of respect and care with our Debie, who has become a little bit our baby :).

Debie is not a factory camper, so do not expect a separate toilet and shower room. These possibilities are available, but have been approached and provided by us in a creative way. Debie is therefore a perfect bus for adventure travel throughout Europe and is a true synonym for freedom! Debie is perfect for slow-traveling. All the luxury is present, but Debie retains the 'incognito / stealth look' so that you can spend the night in beautiful places and in the square without any worries.

VAB Breakdown assistance: With our bus we are affiliated with the VAB. You can travel almost carefree throughout Europe.

Comprehensive insurance for third parties (rental): Our bus is fully insured, which means that damage is covered in the event of damage (by you or someone else). The franchise is for your own account.

Debie is not a factory camper but a homemade house on wheels. We have built our bus with a lot of love. We therefore expect that we travel with the right care and respect with our Debie (who has become a little bit our baby).

We would like to know who is going on an adventure with our bus. A word of explanation about yourself is more than welcome with an application! :)
