DIY Teardrop Camper

theteardropdiaries.tumblr.com

I just became a member and was going through some of the stories. Very excited to become part of this community.

Matt Nolan, 24 years old. Richmond VA

I have been building a home made teardrop camper the last few months. July 1st I will be departing on a few month journey to the National Parks across the USA. If anyone is interested in my adventure please check out

or if anyone has built a trailer of their own or have questions please feel free to contact me.

This trailer has turned into a lot more than just me "building the trailer" it has became a window for adventure. I am very excited to start my journey. Thanks for hearing about my adventure..

Cheers!!
  • Nice work!

    This gal also has a Teardrop and travels extensively. Her website is really well done with lots of tips and chronicling of her adventures. I see that she has a solar panel on the top and besides the advantage of free power, it probably offers some shade.
  • Very nice work! I have to have my A/C, though! Bring lots of spare tires for that trailer.
  • Nice work!
    Come visit me in Sequoia National Park. I'll be hosting all summer in Dorst Creek CG. No reservations this summer, it's first come, first served because of lack of water. We may have to close early before the scheduled 9/2 close.
  • Loving your teardrop and especially the "moon roof". I can imagine the space filled with starlight and waking up to the rays of the sun:).
