The TikTok star was sceptical at first - but now loves living in a vanCredit: instagram/tylerregan To make the van appear larger, Regan opted for a large rectangular shape countertopCredit: instagram/tylerregan Like many, the Aussie TikTok sensation, Tyler Regan, was initially quite sceptical about living in a mobile home. But then, in June 2020, the sketch comedian decided to leave LA to travel through America in an RV, after he and his girlfriend transformed a 1976 Airstream and made it into a luxury home. "I had never camped a day in my life before this," Regan said, telling Insider that the idea of living in a tiny mobile home felt like a huge risk. As a full-time content creator, the TikTok star also had to factor his work schedule into the life-changing decision. After some careful thinking, Regan said the idea of seeing the world whilst also making videos was compelling - and the two finally decided to take the plunge. The couple then joined together to find and redecorate the perfect RV for their new life - a process that took more than a year. Regan said he had "never stepped foot into an RV" before buying the Airstream, and was expecting it to feel really uncomfortable and tiny. Although the £13k van did not ''feel cramped at all', there was a lot of work that needed to be done in order to make it cosy. "It was in very good shape on the outside, but the inside needed everything," Regan said. For the makeover, they stripped out all the flooring and furniture and started from scratch, with the help from Regan's parents and a professional who dealt with plumbing and electrical work.
