VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Danny, a book lover who has been living in his bus for over 6 months designed his space beautifully. He was very thoughtful with what he knew he needed and wanted while living in a small space. The amount of storage is incredibly impressive. He also has a kitchen with so much counter space, an oven to bake bread, a deep sink, plenty of shelving and a dining room table. Danny lived in NY for 33 years and desired a slower pace of life and more time outdoors, so he made the leap and truly created a HOME on wheels.

I like it. For me I’d want a bigger bedroom area. So I’d cut down the sitting area down and reduce the pantry down as there plenty of storage in the kitchen, take the return off it and put the bathroom away from the bedroom in the style and narrow layout. I’d like the whole back area to be my bedroom.

That's awesome! :) Good-luck. I have similar plans, but I don't plan to wait for retirement. I still thought it would be good for that purpose though because then you don't have to worry about leaving everything behind if you want to travel. Remember to find out about insurance before you invest your money though. It seems like they are getting better about offering insurance, but it's an issue many tiny home owners don't speak about enough. Who wants to spend all that money on something they love without any kind of protection, right?

And i think after saving a few years i might do this myself. Ive always liked the idea of a tiny house. Besides after the break up and moving back to my parents temporarily almost all my belongings besides mattress and a dresser fit in my jeep. So i think im ready lol.

This is, hands down, the best bus/van/tiny home build-out I've ever seen. The floor plan and aesthetics are perfect. I am amazed at how much it resembles an actual sticks & bricks home, and by how spacious it all seems. The garage area is an excellent addition, and I'm surprised that he had enough room left over for it. The roof deck is the crowning touch. Bravo!

Usually they don't have holding tanks, maybe fresh water occasionally, but the toilet is composting, no black holding tank needed...the shower may just drain straight through to the ground, or into a portable holding tank. Looks like he uses jugs of water, and the Berkey filter system which means he don't need a fresh water tank. All that stuff adds weight that you don't want while you are traveling anyways. Plus in cold climates those tanks have a tenancy to freeze. There are some buses that have huge cargo storage areas under the floor (think Greyhound Buses), and those would work if you want to have holding tanks, you can build the bus with the holding tanks in one or more of those cargo bays and run heating ducts to them to prevent freezing, which is what I'd do. I'd just leave the fresh water tank close to empty till I got to where I was going then stop and fill it and use it for showers and such and keep reusable water jugs for drinking water.

I've been watching these conversions for about 5 years and you are the first person to make any kind of comment about the fear of cold weather. I lived in Oregon for about 12 years I was a van dweller for three of them/ I think it is very important for someone that lives in a vehicle to have a healthy fear of getting extremely sick or freezing to death in a vehicle in winter. It should be communicated to the "life on wheels" community more loudly and more clearly. I wouldn't want laws to change, forbidding this lifestyle because people were found in their vehicles. It could happen. Great video. Happy travels!

Had something similar so I can testify that changing the sheets is a bit of a challenge...but it just involves crawling over the bed as you make it. And a fluffy comforter hides any mistakes.

Late to the party but none the less impressed by this wonderfully comfortable home. I love the books and the kitchen's great and there's so much space everywhere. I can imagine how cosy it must feel at night, with a glass of red in one hand, a book in the other and some Philip Glass or Elgar playing quietly in the background. I can imagine staying up nights and talking with friends about everything in the world in a place like this. I am a little envious.

A very well designed schoolie. I would suggest getting window tint that has a little r value for the windows or replacing them so the heat would not escape as easily. I was glad to hear that he replaced all of the tires. Even though tires might look like they have decent tread left, they will dry rot and be dangerous to drive on. Most buses are not stored inside while waiting to be re-purposed. Did I miss it in the video on how much water he stored in his main water tank? Also, how does he heat the water for his shower?

robertb4455 -hey Robert, the bus came with factory tint and is so awesome! Privacy and weather proofing. In the cold I now have reflectix panels for each window and double wool curtains. Works really well also, there’s a 100 gal fresh water tank under the bed (46 gal gray underneath). I heat the water with the on-demand propane heater. 👍🏻

Very impressive. Feels the most like a real home out of any build I've seen. As opposed to a minimal approach, it looks like you actually figured out a way to include everything you could really need or want. I'm sure there was paring down necessary, but it really doesn't come across as making any compromises vs most builds I see.
