Happy Selfie Day from Low Cost Vans

Happy Selfie Day! As anyone on social media will have noticed, today (Thursday, June 21, 2018) is international Selfie Day - and this year, we thought it would be rude not to join in with the fun. The idea is to spend the day trying to take the perfect selfie, by fine tuning the camera angles and changing locations to get things just right.
