Lovers of nature

The couple has always loved the outdoors and nature and wanted to live a lifestyle that represented that.

They also wanted to tour Australia and spend quality time on the road, and that is how their journey to purchase a truck to turn into their home began.

Australian couple turn truck into a home

Paul Battenally told Insider:

“We started looking into getting a motorhome and saw a few vans, but a lot of them were quite small, and I’m very tall, so the ceiling height wasn’t great.""Then we came across the Coca-Cola truck, purchased it in 2021 and started converting it."

They admitted it took time to get the right truck, and when they did, they spent a whopping KSh 2 million (N7,176,009.61) purchasing the Coca-cola truck.

He further added:

"I was working on it in my free time after work, I’m a carpenter, so I had all the skills necessary to build it, and it wasn’t too challenging for me.”

Living the dream life on the road

They saved money, and in January 2023, they began their journey with about KSh 3 million (N10,764,014.42) to fund their adventure.

Twenty-seven-year-old Trindall sells art to bring in cash, while Paul does carpentry work when available.

They stay for a few days when they visit a place and then keep moving. The couple enjoys the nomadic lifestyle. A part of the report read:

"The couple spent about A$17,000 on appliances, electrical maintenance, plumbing, and fixtures and A$8,000 on materials to fit out the truck."
