Debie – Debie The Van (home made)

Debie is a 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/travellers,... Debie gave us a carefree holiday for 2 months.

After our trip, Yana and I decided to share Debie with other travelers. With a bit of fear in our heart, 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 bit our baby :).

Debie is not a factory camper, so don't expect a separate toilet and shower room. These possibilities are present, but we have tackled and provided for them 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-travelling. All luxury is present here, but Debie does retain the 'incognito/stealth look' so that you can spend the night in beautiful places and squares without any worries.

VAB Roadside 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, so that the damage is covered in the event of damage (by you or someone else). The franchise is hereby for its own account.

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

We would like to know who is going on an adventure with our bus. A little explanation about yourself is therefore more than welcome with an application! †
