I am moving into my travel trailer permanently. Ideas to transform it

I want to make it as comfortable and efficient as possible. I will be doing all of the work myself. There is already a washer/dryer in use but not installed. Two pieces of furniture have been removed to make more storage room. Need lots of ideas for efficient storage. Can build from scratch or buy ready made. Plumbing and electrical can be redone too, not an issue. I have a degree in Building Construction. Can't wait to get started. Would even love a wood burning stove or fireplace for heating and even occasional cooking and baking. I accept the challenge, do you???

make a plan of what you want to have in the remodel...then consult an rv dealer with a good reputation. the travel trailer need to be balanced correctly.
Facebook has groups you can join. Lots of ideas, photos and helpful, experienced folks.
I redid my counter tops with just paint. Amazing how cheap yet how beautiful they turned it. Just YouTube how to do it.
We have done some things to ours for long term living bug yet it can be moved if & when necessary. Beware though, units are not built to handle very heavy weights such as fireplaces & wood stoves. Electric heaters that look like fireplaces are much better choice. Grilling indoors with electrical units made for this are much better choice. We removed gas stove & set up for this. You are welcome to ask me questions about things we've done to ours. Too much to list here & my time posting projects with pics is too crunched with DH's cancer fight. Please ask by subject or topic.
