Welcome to The Black Pearl Logbook, a serialized record of turning a black RAM ProMaster 2500 into a custom camper van and chasing total freedom on the open road. I’m building out my DIY van conversion from scratch, sharing every step of the van build process, rough draft framing, and real-life lessons along the way. But the build is just the beginning. As a solo female traveller navigating Canadian vanlife, this channel is about creating a life lived out in the open air. Expect Captain's Log archive entries, Ontario travel and hiking trails, stand up paddleboarding (SUP) on calm lakes, freediving, and remote outdoor adventures across Ontario destinations and beyond. If you are into DIY van conversions, solo female vanlife, or living for the next trail and ocean view, subscribe and follow along with the build! 🚐🌊
