- Welcome to our school bus conversion tour! We put a ton of effort into our SKOOLIE and we hope it shows as we take you through our tiny home on wheels!
We focused on keeping things as simple as possible and creating an open floor plan while ensuring we could stay off-grid. We love living in our skoolie and enjoying the lifestyle that comes with it.

This is the most incredibly well thought out and beautifully designed bus I’ve ever seen, and I’m right there with you as far as watching every bus tour, van tour, and tiny home on RUclips. It’s the only reason I watch it nowadays! I want to build a bus for when my kids go off the college soon to travel. Wow, your build is incredible! I’m just honestly blown away, you guys have every luxury, tons of room but a small enough bus still. Great job, and great video. Your quality of editing is great too!
Corinne, you just made our day! Thank you! Just like you we watched every tutorial and skoolie tour before starting our build and took pieces of what we liked from others. That’s something I love about the skoolie community is that everyone is happy to share and give advice. When you build yours, please reach out and we’re happy to help out in any way possible!!
I love your bus ! Very great use of space! Love what you did with bed
I completely agree and I barely started the video.
I too have watched every video I can find on mobile living and it has made me realise that if I optimize it, itll be a luxurious apartment on wheels
You
Guys
Are
Optimizers!!!
Watching this video made me so happy, relate so much, inspired by so many of the clever things you guys did
Subscribed and I wish you guys well in your adventuring 🥰
Great review.
You did a beautiful job with your schoolie build - well done! This is the best and most functionally designed 25’ schoolie Ive ever seen. The tour was well narrated, interesting and to the point.
Thank you a Mya! That means a lot.
Exactly! They blew it out of the water in every aspect. No fluff, simply a spectacular job all the way around
*Skoolie
I love that u both r so young yet made such a smart decision so early in life. I think its great that your ambition wasn't to fit the cookie cutter dream of the gated home with 2.5 kids and a job that pays u just enough to afford the monthly mortgage car repayments utilities bills. I'm very proud of your determination to be fully self reliant and off the grid at such a young age. I just wish I had thought of this at your age. But I didn't even have a utube at your age where we can learn how to do all thid stuff.
Hi Linda! We’ve learned so much from RUclips, truly an incredible resource. And yes! Our priorities are to see and experience as much as we can NOW...this was the best way to allow us to do that. Thank you so much for your support 😊
One of the nicest builds I've ever seen. Stay safe and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Happy new year Linda!! Thank you :)
"Multipurpose Drawer" - Lol, that's such a great name for the junk drawer! Although, my multipurpose drawer isn't anywhere near as neat and tidy as yours.
Lol I think we got “multipurpose drawer” from Marie kondo 😂
Beautiful bus. I really love the colors you’ve chosen. Everything is so clean and earthy. Well done.
Yes! Earthy and clean was what we were going for :) thanks much
I really like the floorplan of your skoolie. I do like the bed and how you save space with it. very well thought out.
Thanks Kenneth! Appreciate it, cheers :)
This is an incredible home. I like the openness of it and having your Murphy bed greatly contributes to the openness. Enjoy your adventures!
Thank you Miss Mellblom! Yes the openness was a must-have for us
I love the co-pilot seat.... So nice to share the ride together!
It was a must for us for safety and yes, experiencing the road next to each other :)
@@bonafideoutside It's great! I've only seen a couple other buses add one, and I think it's just the best thing! Well done!
Where did you buy the co-pilot seat?
@@bonafideoutside Can you share where you got the passenger seat?
This is one of the best bus I have ever seen, I have almost seen more than 100 Van/bus conversion videos.. This is something else, spacious, nicely builds. Hats off. Best wishes 😍
WOW! Thank you so much that is so kind! We appreciate it :)
I keep going back to this one too !
Love that you was able to hide the bed, and make a lot of living space
I like the bed arrangement. Multiple use space. So many make a set position bed and that seems like a waste of space.
Wow!! I've been obsessed with these conversions lately and I've watched a ton of videos, but I have to say, yours is my favorite!! So well done with the rugged exterior look and the gorgeous interior. PERFECTION👌🏽
Wow, no words! Thank you, means so so much 😊
This is my favorite build so far. Very well done. 👍
Thank you very much :)
I love the cleverly designed Murphy bed.
Love it!!
This is so inspiring!
💪 if we can do it, anyone can do it!
One of my fav builds!!!
Thanks Violet 💜
Love it. ❤
Best bed idea I’ve seen
Thanks much Donna! :)
I love your flior plan. It's so roomy in the back, and having two tables you can use and lots of kitchen counter space. Very nicely done!
I love your bus! The design and look are perfect.
Too kind Kate! Thank you :)
Love Love Love your build 💞
Love love love!
♥️♥️♥️
The nicest builds I've ever seen. Well done.
Thank you that is so kind
It’s beautiful
Thank you Dina!!
I love it! So many have the white sterile new vans .They don't decorate and there's no life inside. You bus is alive and minimalist with style. Love the colors. I love galvanized steel,so vintage so efficient.
LOVE IT
you guys, such a great bus build!
Beauty and function.
Thank you so much! It means a lot :)
Love this build, it’s amazing! It has everything you could possibly need.
Thank you Deborah, we appreciate it :)
Lovely bus !
Lovely!
Thanks Kelly :)
Absolutely gorgeous rig, yall! Hope to see you on the road in 2021!
Thanks! That would be awesome, and we’re boondocking right now 😂
Nice build. Like how you have it layed out....especially the murphey bed.
Thanks Tracy. The layout was tricky to nail down but we’re so happy with the way we decided to go with it.
Brilliant design with lovely people.
Thank you Dinorah :)
Very nice, very beautiful!
Best build I’ve seen. And Ive seen a lot. Love your bed. I had that design in my head already. I’m gathering ideas and yours is one of the best!
Awesome! Yes we got inspiration and ideas from seeing other people’s builds too
The best I have seen...love the bathroom...Well done to you both...everything well laid out...love the floorplan...Exellent...Travel well and safe...❤
Thank you Kaaratenga, that is too kind :)
Well done! Love the design of the bed!
Good job and the fine tour. Keep it simple and clean ...
I have seen tons of builds and this is truly efficient and functional. It beats trying to park a full size bus, which must be a serious challenge to find parking. Great job guys. I would definitely want to replicate this design.
That’s so kind! Thank you
One day I'm going to get the courage to live this lifestyle. Being in south Florida doesn't help as buying a bus to convert is like speaking Chinese -no one knows out here. Your bus is beautiful and functional. It's one of the best I've seen.
If we can do it, anyone can...and that’s the truth! Our hometown in Michigan is not familiar to the idea but we were very supported (and drew lots of curious eyes lol). Thank you for the compliments, means a lot :)
Best design ever! Love everything about it.
You guys are SO good looking!!
Love this schoolie design. Love the open concept and that you have a bathroom with shower. Fantastic job. Would also want it to be able to be off grid mostly
Thanks Dawn! Open concept was what we were shooting for :)
Love the tour, my favorite part was seeing how the cubic mini takes up so little space. I have not yet installed any heat yet. I like the fact that no power is needed to run the cubic mini. The curtain support rods in the cab and above the bus door are great ideas I can add to mine. During my June 2020 vacation I discovered just how much massive heat was being generated by the cab.
Glad you enjoyed! We are big fans of the cubic mini. And yes we’re even thinking of thickening those curtains
@@bonafideoutside as far as my curtains I opted to make and use a nice pattern and put black out curtains on the backside of them that I can’t see and use fanfold insulation on the windows on the two hot or too cold days. But I did consider using just curtains like your set up.
How does the blackout fabric work for you?
Great design... !!
By far one of my favorite designs!!
Hello, your amazing 🤗 I truly love the simple structure and great thought process in your tiny bus.
Can you please share with us what was your budget including the bus purchase and the final cost to complete the whole set up for your home bus.
Best of luck always 💖
Thank you! Sure, we have roughly 23,000 into our build including insurance and a lot of hard labor. We have gotten this question a lot so we are thinking we will do a future budget breakdown video and share how others could do theirs cheaper. We could have done things much cheaper if we didn't put ourselves under such a time constraint. Would that be something you'd be interested in seeing?
Absolutely 😃. Wondering also about the weight factor and did the suspension need modification?
Can I say I love your murphy bed? First time I've saw one in a small skoolie.
You sure can! It works great for us
Realy nice job
Brilliant bed system. Love it! Beautiful bus.
It'sa beautifulbuild with so many cleaver designs! What was your budget for the build?
Thank you! I think we may have to do a budget video because that is a popular question! The most expensive items were the toilet, solar, mini wood stove and MI insurance. We paid roughly 23,000 total but we were under time constraint. There are definitely ways to go cheaper if you have a lot of time
Can I use this design everything is perfect
Sure! Sharing is caring
Excellent job. I'm inspired.
A cute cable 🙋
