We are The Bridge Family!
We are a happy go lucky family of that consists of: Scott (Dad), Katie (Mum), Teddy (Son), Willow (Floof) that have a huge passion for travel, adventure and exploring what the world really has to offer.
On the 24th of February 2023 our life was turned upside down, when what was always the worst imaginable nightmare, soon became our devastating reality. We found out that our 10 month old son Teddy was unexpectedly diagnosed with a rare form of AML leukaemia. As you can imagine, no parents can ever prepare you for this news. We were quickly transferred from our local hospital to the famous Great Ormond Street Hospital in London to fight for our son's life. My son had a 183 day fight in hospital and finally rang that bell.
You are joining us now as we attempt to start our long journey on Teddy's road to recovery post bone marrow transplant and do our best to rebuild our life as the Bridge family.

This was honestly one of the scariest days of our entire campervan conversion... 😬
After our windows leaked, we had to build up the courage to cut TWO MORE huge holes in the roof! 😅
This episode shows:
✅ Cutting the roof
✅ Installing TWO NomadicArk Air Plus roof fans
✅ Building the timber support frames
✅ The finished result!
If you're planning your own campervan conversion, we really hope this gives you the confidence to tackle one of the biggest jobs in any van build! 🚐

And of course, we also take some time away from the build for a family day at the beach ❤️
The question is...

🚨 NEW VIDEO TOMORROW! 🚐
Tomorrow's campervan conversion episode is all about one of the upgrades we've been looking forward to most...
👀 We finally installed a swivel seat in our MAN TGE!
At first we thought it would just be a nice little addition...
But after seeing it in place, we're starting to think it could completely change the way we use the van!
The question is...
🤔 Is a swivel seat actually worth it?
Vote below before the video goes live:
🔘 Absolutely!🔘 Not worth the money🔘 Depends on the layout🔘 I'm interested to find out
Video drops tomorrow at 12pm UK time ⏰
See you there! 🚐❤️
