I loved this video so much when I saw it a month ago that I watched it again. Only this time, I'm appalled by the negativity of the more recent comments. Condemning Joanie for her "selfish" attitude or bemoaning the bed/bathtub set up?!?!? WOW!!! How many mom's do you know who cook from scratch (3 meals/day) or grinds her own flour? She's incredible!!! Joanie gave up a business that she loved but 'negotiated' the salon which Adam lovingly provided. This is an incredible couple who love their children enough to provide an exceptional, adventuresome life for their little ones. Will it be forever that they live this lifestyle? Perhaps not; but for now it is working brilliantly for them and who are we/you to cast aspersions on their choices let alone act like they're not providing properly for their children. Enough!!!
Margie Peary Thank you for understanding completely where our hearts are at in this! Our entire family has become closer and grown as a strong unit. The kids lack nothing and we as parents are with them every day. Blessings to you!
Margie Peary, I agree with you. I too, shame this Joanie woman. The nerve of her to even think she has the rite to judge. This family has a beautiful home that many family's can only dream of. They are also showing their children the world while bonding with them. They are truly extraordinary parents. God bless
@@adamjoanieadventures You are a beautiful family and your children are lucky to have parents who love them so much that they each have their own special little cubical designed just for them AND parents who are with them everyday giving them special attention and hands on experiences!!. How lucky to have a mother that doesn't throw the typical "junk" food at their kids, but prepares wholesome, healthy organic food each day. You have provided a beautiful loving home perfectly designed to fit everyone's needs. Keep up the good work and enjoy new adventures everyday that most families will NEVER get to experience!!! :)
I think it’s amazing that you found the space for a business too... everyone complaining about the kids and space... there’s a big wide world for them to play! What a great adventure life for them right now!
Exactly what I was thinking I’ve watched so many of these bus and van tours I’ve not seen a single family make anymore room for their kids than this family
Highly recommend stowing everything you have in the belly compartments in air-tight containers to prevent road dust, mildew, mold, and bugs from getting into your things. Additionally, it will prevent your tools from rusting. Throwing in packets of DampRid will definitely help inside the containers.
now in my 80s we did the same with 4 children 70s and 80s Still the topic of our conversation God Bless you both and your family All my sons and daughter have benefited from our travels
@@adamjoanieadventures I agree that you've done a great job fitting the salon in but am wondering if you're staying anywhere long enough to drum up regular clientele as people have to trust their hairdressers? So if you continue to only have 1 or 2 clients per week would you consider removing the non-storage parts to give the space back to the 'home' (i.e. as potential space for a washer-drier/bigger bathroom/kids closet)? As an alternative could you maintain your licence working as a 'mobile' hairdresser going to people's homes in your car? You could also take your products for planned parties (like the Avon ladies used to)? 😊
Wow this home is in my top 5 of the most beautiful custom built skoolies.... They did an amazing job bringing so many different elements into the home even the little beauty shop are for her business was a well laid out plan...
You both should be proud of your home and the ability to be free to move your home about. The 1st thing I noticed was your radiant love for each other, your accommodation for each other's needs and the sacrifice that can only come from true love. For what it's worth, the bus is a masterpiece and your lives are truly magical. 😍
Oh my gosh. I've driven through Glacier National Park ("Going-to-the-Sun Road" ) a few times in a small car and was white knuckling it. I cannot even fathom some of those cliff roads in that bus!!!! I'm shocked. This guy must be the most calm driver on the planet.
Fantastic, Impressive minimal living. Love how well you used Sq Ft throughout and the style. Mobile salon is genius🔥 Convenient for minimalist on road. I admire she didn't bury her passion.
I thought this was gonna be a quick video tour, I start watching and then I'm like, this is taking a while, I look and notice I'm 25 minutes into a 43 min long video! Lol Great video. Fun tour.
Your bus is fantastic. How you have compromised and accommodated each other is a beautiful thing. What a wonderful experience you are providing your children.
Lovely home guys, great attention to detail, with so many highs, the serenity, the peace and understanding you have with one another certainly makes for a warm and welcoming atmosphere, all the best guys for you and your children's future endeavors xx
Wow! I found this video by accident and I couldn't stop watching it . You guys did an amazing job to make this bus a home. I love all the work you did in making it a cozy, comfy home for your family.I'm looking forward to following you on RUclips.
The fact that you fit your salon business into a bus where you live with your family is unbelievable.😍 Ridiculously amazing!! THIS just shows that no matter what goals you guys have you guys will accomplish it because that takes a lot of determination👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Just seeing this video….love it! Very cool home! I’m 70 yo and could definitely live in one like this! And you are adorable talking about living life this way with your family! Have fun and enjoy! Be safe!
I love your bus!!! It’s amazing!! Someday I want to be able to do this with my husband. Awesome salon. Yes it’s a good idea you keep up your career while traveling so when the time comes you have it available for future income. I see a lot of negative comments and it’s their dream and they went for it. Anyone else wanna have guts to just pick up and go. It’s scary but they are soo g it together 👏👏
Evelyn Fernandez Thank you! I gave up my beautiful historic salon I had for 13 years before this and now my husband gets to travel- our kids get amazing adventures and I still get to serve clients and store all my inventory for my makeup and skincare business!
Joanie....I know several people who travel like ya'll do n stop to work at national parks and things, I love your bus and that you have your work with you....Safe travels from Oklahoma
@@adamjoanieadventures when you travel for a longer period of time you will meet many of the same family over and over again. I would imagine it’s a small community . Other full time travelers and home schoolers. They will be your clientele because they will know you! It’s your dream live it as you choose! Don’t listen to naysayers who are most likely sitting on their couches at home telling you what do … good luck 🍀
Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! One of the most beautiful builds I've ever seen. Its so homey I could move in here and be happy forever! Hope you two are happy in here forever too!
This is a great build! I am amazed that they built a salon and had room for everything else even a wood stove! So brilliant! May they have many great adventures and safe journeys! Hats off to this couple for living out their dreams!
Wow! I'm so envious! I homeschooled my kids. What a dream to travel and give them true geography lessons etc while on the road. We now have grandkids and hope to one day own a home on wheels to give the kids fun adventures during the summer months. Don't mind those negative people.
Wow wow wow I am just floored. Soooo many brilliant ideas. Just incredible. You guys are the best and the most impressive build I have seen so far. So much talent.
It was and it shows. By far the best I've seen. Home, business and vehicle, genius. Ohhhhhhhh I almost forgot, it's also very aesthetically pleasing. So once again lol, great job God bless and happy travels P.S. I just wish I could've came along 😂😂😂😂😂😂. Really though, enjoy it all and do it all while you can! GBAHT
Amazing build! At first I was thinking, how could this be healthy mentally with 5 people in a small environment? Yet I believe a real important thing is your children feel very secure. They sleep near each other and that's a comfort to them. Plus you gave them privacy by providing enclosures for their bed. I like that and think it's very healthy. Plus a great design for the tub. Bravo!!!
If you guys do ever decide to sell that bus, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. My favorite color, I'm also a hairstylist, with a strong attachment to clothes, and I want to get into a tiny home. This is my dream. I'm so glad you guys made it all work! It let's me know that I could make it work too.
Very nice video and super imaginative. I bought a bus this year and am in the process of upgrading the motor and electrical elements. We lived in a converted vw van for one year with 2 kids, living by faith in Brazil, where I still am. My wife and kids moved to the states for now. We have 8 kids...mostly home schooled. God bless you all and keep you safe and mobile! God knows we are going to need it!
U 2 have a great bus, great ideas for making fu nctional everything! I really do appreciate the fact that u, lady, have that saloon! Great idea of making a bit of money on the road, for making happy some lady on the road! And the tube which transphorms in a bed, its great! I think One thing: the negative comments come because of envy. Dont worry, go on with love and faith in God! Everything will be alright! Be blessed!
Great Stuff . . As far as your children are concerned they are having the time of family- adventure together during these trying times . . Fantastic Legacy Of Priceless Memories.. You Both Are Awesome!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, I'm not shocked by the opinions of those whom may have only seen a snippet of your life, I feel you have thought of everything to keep your family going financially while on the road, as far as the children are concerned, I've seen kids live on worse conditions, having the eldest son sleep on a mattress above the tub is absolutely okay in my opinion, the fact is, they are doing this for themselves, so our opinions are just that. I happen am very happy them, they've continued with the childrens schooling and giving them an adventure of a life time all while maintaining a happy family. Great job and God bless on your next adventure ride
I am so glad that you brought attention to the new lighting bothering your wife. People think I am crazy when I tell them that it gives me headaches because of the flicker.
Bathing in a cattle trough sounds cool. When we were little we bathed in a big washtub. Such a nice conversion. I love the exterior bus color too! Happy travels guys!
Woww!! This is how an ideal spouse be. Thrift shopper, cooks all meals for family, supports spouse and is beautiful. I ve been thinking it is some fairy tale character !!
Such a lovely family with a gorgeous bus. My favorite part is Joanie's mobile salon ... fabulous!!! It would seem others who are traveling would be in need of her services as well so my hunch is her business is going to grow! Best to Adam & Joanie and their 3 kiddo's:)
Well done mom and dad. Adventure of a lifetime. In no way , have you skimped on anything for your children ❤️ We all need surprisingly little ‘stuff’ to be happy. We do, however, thrive in a close knit family . Relationship over superfluous stuff is key to well developed balanced people. Your children are blessed.
I think this is one of the nicest schoolers I have ever seen. I especially love, love, love the wood stove. We had a 3 level split home and heated the entire place with a hearth stone wood stove for 30 years. Hearthstone was our second and is still going strong, but I am down-sizing and selling. I will be putting in a wood stove here some day.
Such a beautiful loving family... So nice to see this young family making life truly a memorabler experience... This is the kind of upbringing that produce the greatest of people... Exciting...
@@adamjoanieadventures Life goes fast and in a blink of an eye, your kids are grown... So everyday counts and enjoy how you understand this and making life the best it can be... Congratulations! Will be watching, thank you...
@@adamjoanieadventures Thank you, too... I think to myself which of your kids will be Governor and which will be the Surgeon... I imagine your kids as old people reflecting back to their childhood and the rich loving adventure that was to them the norm... Good luck to you all and looking forward to tuning in and enjoying the show... Thanks, again...
I think you turned your bus into a beautiful home! You have everything in there that makes it functional, safe, and lovely. Kudos to you guys. We were homeschoolers back when it was illegal, yes we're that old. The only teacher's curriculum sold could only be bought by "real" teachers. I think the bus is an advantage because you will see so many areas of the country and get more of a feel for the different needs, styles, history and ethnicities than most families. My husband was in the military so we did travel but certainly not as free as you are doing. Best wishes to you and your family. I do wish were able to meet the kids.
You did an amazing job. Your love & respect for each other & your family's needs is truly great. Living the dream is not always easy. I'm retired with an emotional support dog. I've been searching for a bus, because it's much safer for a woman , than a camper. You can lock the door & get behind the wheel and drive away, if you don't feel safe
I love watching videos where it's obvious that said individuals think.......basically use their mind in ways that reveal that they are thinking about specifics vs just rambling. This bus conversion video was definitely interesting to watch, especially since they went from living in a farm environment and down sizing in ways that still allow them to remain/live the same way that they once use to. It's always refreshing to encounter minds as such, as there's no struggle to see their vision or "understand". I've always thought that having a bath allowed you to save space and made more sense, but I wanted to see who would actually incorporate that into their build. Cheers to your adventures.
This. Is. Amazing!! I'm living in our trailer while we build an addition- we have six kids. Wish I could convince my hubs to cancel the addition and do this 😍 I've been obsessed with these videos and this bus is my favourite so far!
I'm a hair stylist, I've been watching so many videos trying to find someone who included a mini salon! I just got a trailer handed down to me I can't wait to Start. But I would really like a video from you that explains the plumbing and electrical work that went into you adorable mini salon.
Just amazing, all of the skoolie video I've seen so far this been my favorite. Amazing family with lovel setup, wish you'll a very safe and long happy journey ahead.
So beautiful!! Only thing is with three growing kids they’re going to need their personal space . Too bad the salon wasn’t more room for the kids especially making one of the boys bunks into a bath tub :( but for a couple with NO kids .. this is AMAZING
Space....... how about they enjoy the benefits of all being in a loving space where they all actually interact with one another instead of isolating themselves in " their space"
So contemporary, yet clean and homey. The salon is fantastic! I am not sure how you get clients, paying clients, but I'm sure you worked it out! Beautiful job! I'm from Minnesota and am totally jelly your able to do it. At 57 years old, unmarried, well.. there's no way I would do it alone. To do homeschooling is just freeing and allowed this venture. What a nice, adorable couple! I wish I knew how you were able to afford this lifestyle. I may have missed that part in the beginning, I'll re-listen. Thanks for your review and keeping it interesting! Haha, your so organized you feature the rooms with the time slots! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
You guys did a beautiful job, it is truly a home. I especially love the white washed wood and the teal color for the outside. Your bedroom looks so cozy! I bet the kids love their bunks. Safe travels🚍 guys❤️
Everyone complaining about the poor kid sleeping on top of the tub made it sound incredibly uncomfortable. It’s the same bed as the others! And such a great use of limited space.
I think if anything it’s more annoying to the parents than the kid their the ones who have to move the bed and put it back and do all the actual labor and if it bothers him that much he could bunk with his other siblings.
Adam /Joanie you have for sure!!! If you guys ever come through San Tan Valley Arizona I own a salon here you can always be a guest stylist! I also have a healing room where I do Reiki. I’d would die to see the inside in person! I’m with ya I wish we had those sinks cause my legs and back kill me after an 8 hour day.
I just had a vision of u, lady, who will be able to prepare some nice couples , on the road , for some great events in their lives! Weddings, baptisms, parties, anniversaries..Keep your saloon! U will become famous for this and loved! Be blessed! (Im a woman, i am sure of what i told u)
Awesome! This life experience for your family wil be with y'all for life. As a child my parents also travelled and worked, not as nice as y'alls bus but those were very happy times with my family when the 5th one (my baby sister) came along my dad built a house. People might see it as difficult but it was an adventure and if it was ever difficult we have no memory of it, just the joy of being together. That was a long time ago, im a grandma now, im glad I had that experience.
The wife, I hear a splice of Canadian and Minnesotan but she has the personality of a hardcore southern Belle- fashion, beauty parlor and wouldn't give up her wardrobe!
Way to make it work!! I love the bed over the tub!! Y'all are brave and I wish I could do this!! Stay positive!! Your kiddos are gonna have the best memories of their childhood!! 😍😍
Your colors are brilliant! The white, Black and Teal inside and the outside are just what I would like. Great job. It's great that you have your brother and your parents to help with some of the build! Good luck with your Salon, too!
Lovely couple, great life, beautiful clever build of an ex school bus... and Adam, those farm house clothes couboards you built for your wife's clothes are beautiful and a labor of love,. love them! Well done God bless.
this is the first time ever that I actually love all the white! I usually don't like it as it looks like a laboratory when every single piece in a home is white. But here in this buss it really looks nice and beautiful.
Kudos to this couple what a fantastic idea, I am tossing around a tiny house or a skoolie but eventually one of the other and it's videos like this that are extremely informative. Best of luck to this man and his family they seem to have the right idea..🙂

We do, however, thrive in a close knit family . Relationship over superfluous stuff is key to well developed balanced people. Your children are blessed.
Please speak for yourself. There is no "we all" to your opinion. You speak for you, not for me.
I think this is one of the nicest schoolers I have ever seen. I especially love, love, love the wood stove. We had a 3 level split home and heated the entire place with a hearth stone wood stove for 30 years. Hearthstone was our second and is still going strong, but I am down-sizing and selling. I will be putting in a wood stove here some day.
Great job....that salon is gorgeous. Love the kids bunks too!
macgirlzz it took us a while to plan it all out- thank you!

Life goes fast and in a blink of an eye, your kids are grown... So everyday counts and enjoy how you understand this and making life the best it can be... Congratulations! Will be watching, thank you...
@@ClaudyArfaras Thank you for the amazing encouragement!

Thank you, too... I think to myself which of your kids will be Governor and which will be the Surgeon... I imagine your kids as old people reflecting back to their childhood and the rich loving adventure that was to them the norm...
Good luck to you all and looking forward to tuning in and enjoying the show... Thanks, again...
I think you turned your bus into a beautiful home! You have everything in there that makes it functional, safe, and lovely. Kudos to you guys. We were homeschoolers back when it was illegal, yes we're that old. The only teacher's curriculum sold could only be bought by "real" teachers. I think the bus is an advantage because you will see so many areas of the country and get more of a feel for the different needs, styles, history and ethnicities than most families. My husband was in the military so we did travel but certainly not as free as you are doing. Best wishes to you and your family. I do wish were able to meet the kids.
Well done you two or 5 glad to see people enjoying life!!
thomas volden life is full of beautiful things to discover and enjoy!
You did an amazing job. Your love & respect for each other & your family's needs is truly great. Living the dream is not always easy. I'm retired with an emotional support dog. I've been searching for a bus, because it's much safer for a woman , than a camper. You can lock the door & get behind the wheel and drive away, if you don't feel safe
It’s such a beautiful home. Such a great layout. I absolutely love y’all’s bus. Happy and safe travels to you all.
Carol Jackson thank you for the encouragement!
Greetings from Denmark. How amazing! Wauw! And the color of the bus is just fantastic! Safe journey!
Hello pia how are you doing!!

wen wen thank you!
Your kids sound so happpy in the background, nice to see them enjoying the great outdoors.
ray kemry they are!
Beautiful bus and a beautiful couple! 👍
MAE HAY thank you!
Hello Mae how are you doing!!
I love watching videos where it's obvious that said individuals think.......basically use their mind in ways that reveal that they are thinking about specifics vs just rambling. This bus conversion video was definitely interesting to watch, especially since they went from living in a farm environment and down sizing in ways that still allow them to remain/live the same way that they once use to. It's always refreshing to encounter minds as such, as there's no struggle to see their vision or "understand". I've always thought that having a bath allowed you to save space and made more sense, but I wanted to see who would actually incorporate that into their build. Cheers to your adventures.
This. Is. Amazing!! I'm living in our trailer while we build an addition- we have six kids. Wish I could convince my hubs to cancel the addition and do this 😍 I've been obsessed with these videos and this bus is my favourite so far!
daughter thank you!
Me too!
I'm a hair stylist, I've been watching so many videos trying to find someone who included a mini salon! I just got a trailer handed down to me I can't wait to Start. But I would really like a video from you that explains the plumbing and electrical work that went into you adorable mini salon.
Love this bus home! So cool with the salon too. I’m so envious. What a fun life ❤️
Sara Katz maybe we can meet!
wow bravo that you were able to give everyone in you family something they need to enjoy being on the road.
Just amazing, all of the skoolie video I've seen so far this been my favorite. Amazing family with lovel setup, wish you'll a very safe and long happy journey ahead.
Faizi Gamer thank you for sharing your beautiful thoughts!
The husband is a stud! the bus is stunning as well, great video
Hello Melissa how are you doing!!
Beautifully designed home.
Wayne Blackman thank you!
Good for you,do all the good stuffs while you are young,it only happens once in a lifetime.Your kids will appreciate it later.😊
Love all the white with black hinges. It really pops out and is bright.
Marty Sanders we thought it would be a vintage/farmhouse look!
This Farm Girl is Glam Sparkle & Impeccably Stylish..💯💅 while being a Wife & Mom of 3 & Working....
Respect!!!
Pay attention !!
So beautiful!! Only thing is with three growing kids they’re going to need their personal space . Too bad the salon wasn’t more room for the kids especially making one of the boys bunks into a bath tub :( but for a couple with NO kids .. this is AMAZING
Alicia Janique the kids love it!
Space....... how about they enjoy the benefits of all being in a loving space where they all actually interact with one another instead of isolating themselves in " their space"
So contemporary, yet clean and homey. The salon is fantastic! I am not sure how you get clients, paying clients, but I'm sure you worked it out! Beautiful job!
I'm from Minnesota and am totally jelly your able to do it. At 57 years old, unmarried, well.. there's no way I would do it alone. To do homeschooling is just freeing and allowed this venture. What a nice, adorable couple! I wish I knew how you were able to afford this lifestyle. I may have missed that part in the beginning, I'll re-listen. Thanks for your review and keeping it interesting! Haha, your so organized you feature the rooms with the time slots! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
msyahwey4ever thank you! Greetings from Minnesota- we have my makeup and skincare business I ship and the salon as well as wellness coaching!
You guys did a beautiful job, it is truly a home. I especially love the white washed wood and the teal color for the outside. Your bedroom looks so cozy! I bet the kids love their bunks. Safe travels🚍 guys❤️
Daphne Picard we appreciate that!
The black fridge and black stove are nice. I love black appliances.
Awesome job! Love the salon! Thank you for sharing your home with us.
I love your business. The term, mobile hair dresser, just took a whole new meaning, and it's great.
Everyone complaining about the poor kid sleeping on top of the tub made it sound incredibly uncomfortable. It’s the same bed as the others! And such a great use of limited space.
Heather Czigan you got the vision-yes! He requested that bunk and loves it!
Heather I agree. Very good use of space
I agree. They use the tub once a day and he gets to sleep at night.
Right! I don't get the people complaing about the bed/tub space. It's brilliant!
I think if anything it’s more annoying to the parents than the kid their the ones who have to move the bed and put it back and do all the actual labor and if it bothers him that much he could bunk with his other siblings.
I NEED THIS!!!! I’m a hairdresser of 25 years and want to live the van life doing hair everywhere I go! I’m so jealous! ❤️
Jennifer Talbot I hope to have inspired you!
Adam /Joanie you have for sure!!! If you guys ever come through San Tan Valley Arizona I own a salon here you can always be a guest stylist! I also have a healing room where I do Reiki. I’d would die to see the inside in person! I’m with ya I wish we had those sinks cause my legs and back kill me after an 8 hour day.
You guys did a fabulous job, & this is one of the best schoolies I've seen!
Many, many happy travels & wonderful memories to you!
mizzpoetrics thank you!
I love, love, love your bus and have that same sign "All I need is a little bit of coffee and a whole lotta Jesus"!!!!
I just had a vision of u, lady, who will be able to prepare some nice couples , on the road , for some great events in their lives! Weddings, baptisms, parties, anniversaries..Keep your saloon! U will become famous for this and loved! Be blessed! (Im a woman, i am sure of what i told u)
Awesome! This life experience for your family wil be with y'all for life. As a child my parents also travelled and worked, not as nice as y'alls bus but those were very happy times with my family when the 5th one (my baby sister) came along my dad built a house. People might see it as difficult but it was an adventure and if it was ever difficult we have no memory of it, just the joy of being together. That was a long time ago, im a grandma now, im glad I had that experience.
The wife, I hear a splice of Canadian and Minnesotan but she has the personality of a hardcore southern Belle- fashion, beauty parlor and wouldn't give up her wardrobe!
Lee M. You nailed it!
What could I say but awesome in every way. 🚎
Patricia Silvia your so kind!
They have created a beautiful little home out of their bus.
Thank you! We are enjoying it!
You go girl do your job an still be with your family your home is gorgeous God bless safe travels
diana perez that was the idea! Thank you!
Way to make it work!! I love the bed over the tub!! Y'all are brave and I wish I could do this!! Stay positive!! Your kiddos are gonna have the best memories of their childhood!! 😍😍
Your colors are brilliant! The white, Black and Teal inside and the outside are just what I would like. Great job. It's great that you have your brother and your parents to help with some of the build! Good luck with your Salon, too!
Seastorm 1978 yes our family is the best! Thank you!
Thank you for thinking of your kids. One family put their son in a dog bed, no kidding.
I know which video you are talking about 😂 I'd prefer a tub that's for sure!!! I love this schoolie 😍
Wow a dog bed. ?? That's really sad...
In this video I'm sure it was the Father who thought of the kids!!!
This Home BUS IS beautiful 💕💕💕
I luv , the design...you are guys are not Missing anything!
Absolutely, Stunning & a Business 👏👏👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰🥰
WOW, I love that home!
Thank you!
Lovely couple, great life, beautiful clever build of an ex school bus... and Adam, those farm house clothes couboards you built for your wife's clothes are beautiful and a labor of love,. love them! Well done God bless.
Amazing build everything and what a lovely couple, best of luck!!!
Super Saze thank you!
What a fabulous job! How clever of you to adapt a section for your business. Congratulations.
Sue Burgess thank you! I have been doing hair and makeup for 17 years!
Adam /Joanie Adventures it’s ingenious! I have been pondering how I’d incorporate my work if I travelled and you are inspirational. Thank you x
Sue Burgess your very welcome ☀️
The front door is so cute and the tub under the bed is so smart 👍🏼
this is the first time ever that I actually love all the white! I usually don't like it as it looks like a laboratory when every single piece in a home is white. But here in this buss it really looks nice and beautiful.
Kudos to this couple what a fantastic idea, I am tossing around a tiny house or a skoolie but eventually one of the other and it's videos like this that are extremely informative. Best of luck to this man and his family they seem to have the right idea..🙂
Royce Lane thank you!
