The tiny home has an area of 80 square feet.
According to Reimer, the converted living space has an area of 80 square feet, and the whole ambulance is 14 feet long and 7 feet wide.
In her essay for Insider, Reimer wrote that adjusting to the small space "took some getting used to," even though the couple had done a lot of traveling together in the past.
"The first six months of tiny living felt claustrophobic even for us," she wrote.
The couple has now been living in the ambulance for two and a half years, having stayed in three countries, 15 states, and two provinces over that time, the van-lifer said in her Tiktok video, which was posted on March 28.
The couple's closet is built into a bench next to the bed.
"Underneath this seat here is the closet," Reimer said in the video as she lifted up a bench that was placed near the bed, revealing a shared closet space filled with clothes.
The ambulance has a small kitchen area and pantry.
Opposite the closet bench was another seat, which lifted up to reveal a pantry space in the tiny home, according to Reimer's video.
The van-lifer also showed off her small kitchen space, complete with a manual water system and foot pump, induction stove, and mini fridge.
"I have everything that a normal house has except just smaller," Reimer said in the clip.
The couple owns a small portable toilet.
"We do have a toilet, because everybody asks that question," Reimer said, as the video cut to a clip of a small white portable toilet that is fitted in the ambulance.
Reimer said she lives "rent-free" in Vancouver in her van.
@notluxe This is how much we spent in a day living in Vancouver (van life) We are so happy to be back home (!!!) but it’s been a bit of an adjustment. That said, our favourite part about van life is that we can pretty much predict our daily costs. We averaged about $30/day living in Mexico - let’s see if it’s the same here. ➟ follow // full-time van life & budget travel ___ Tags: #notluxe #vanlife #vanlifeshot #vanlifemovement #tinyliving #vanlifecouple #travelcouple #lifeontheroad #roadtrippin #vandwellers #yvr #whatispendinaday #whatispendinadayvancouver #vancouvervlog ♬ Dream Away - Ramol
