VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Colin and Ashley have gone back and forth between half-converted vans and box trucks to finally complete their home on wheels in a 1999 Bluebird school bus. It took over 2 1/2 years to finish their rig, and it's worth the time with the amount of thought and detail! The layout is open and functional, especially considering they have a toddler and a dog.
This converted skoolie has a split bath with a roof raise and skylight directly over the shower space. The wood-burning stove is elevated, therefore out of reach, and all drawers have child safety locks. Zephyr, the son, has a bunk secured with a custom piece of woodwork and plenty of storage for his books.
You'll find a five-burner stove and a tankless water filtration in the kitchen with an L-shaped couch diving the living area. This tiny home on wheels is gorgeous while maintaining a practical living space for this adorable family of three.

This has to be the most thought out bus build I have ever seen. When most people do one, somewhere something goes lacking because they were unable to configure the layout properly. I really believe Collins calling in home design, layouts and building. I would love to see the layouts he came up with for vans and cargo truck he built-out. Absolutely Amazing.

Excellent build, and great tastes shown! Tying everything together with the stone work was a super choice. Your son's "door" was a great idea also, and I almost applauded when I saw how it lowered instead of what most people would have done, with hinges of some kind! 👍👍

A beautiful home with a beautiful family! Zephr = what a wonderful name!! Looking at his gorgeous hair, he looks like "a gentle breeze". You cracked me up saying you didn't know how to use the chemex = we love our chemex - it takes out all the bitterness of any coffee [ and we just use folgers! ] - just put the filter in it, add however much coffee you want, maybe 2 scoops per cup? Boil the water, then pour it over the coffee and let it drip = delicious!! Keep enjoying your life, with every moment an adventure. Sending you light, love, peace, joy and abundance always! I love you.

Wow how beautiful. Their home has everything that they need and more! It's a shame they never put solar power in the bus cos with the size of the roof they could have got loads of panels on there this allowing/letting them be off grid. However they are happy and content with getting power as they do. Such a work of art. Stunningly beautiful This family should be so proud of what they have built, achieved, so much love, thought and energy has gone into this fantastic home 🏡💖 I am now following them on Instagram as I would love to see what happens next in their lives, their journey plus also I will be able to see what happened maybe before the bus build 🤔😊 Lisa uk

Love your home... So cozy... 2hen you make decisions on your next vehicle for travel... Consider buying a van to travel in, finished simply, and a 20 foot INCREDIBOX... The model which we bought, so I'm biased.... But it would be ampke for yoyr little family for travel... And both it and your van could park as guest houses... And when travelling, you can stay and live in the 20 foot incredibox, and yoyr family members could stay in the van... Also... The incredibox could stay on the campsite when travelling... And you could do sidetrips and overnights in just the van... Hope this gives you a few ideas.... Our model we bought was the 8x16 incredibox by ITH incredible tiny homes in Newport Tennessee... And once we had paid some of our build off, we upgraded to the 20 footer... And I think if you put in a single bed bunk, over a queen bottom bunk that converts into a futon sofa or L shape sofa... You would have great use of the space for yourselves... Also... Storage Drawers could pull out under the bed or L shape soda... And consider a pull out full length deck... Would double the living space
