  • Adam & Joanie sold their 6ac homestead and business to hit the road full time with their 3 young children. This video is full of great ideas for those looking to convert a school bus and bring an income stream along the way. They built a full salon so Joanie can work on the road!

    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!!!

They are also showing their children the world while bonding with them. They are truly extraordinary parents. God bless

    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.

      @@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)? 😊

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.

    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'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

    41:42 I know what you mean 'bout still feeling your hand vibrate, sister! I too am a cosmetologist, since 1980, graduating from high school vo-tech cosmetlogy class with very little training in clipper cutting hair JUST WHEN THE TREND WAS HOT. Not having any money for advanced training, I took a job in a Barbershop to learn. It was also licensed for cosmetology because the young daughter had chosen Beauty School instead, working 1-2 days a week, her interest not being men's grooming, instead, total immersion in college life.
    The owner,in her late 70's, wanted to "get modern", She had hired a young Barber with couple years experience the old man was retiring and stayed long enough to give me OJT in barbering and clipper skills, he was a licensed barber-stylist, complete with straight razor shaving and the "new layering techniques". So then the hot new wild futuristic 80's modern styling was pretty much left to me as the other old Barber was a female and having her a baby at 55 yrs.
    Giving a 3 or 4" tall flat top it goes from a 1" Crown to a spillover Bang in the front ala Flock of Seagulls or fully standing is not an easy thing, but I learned old ways and new products workt hand in hand. I became the hottest Barber in town with the reputation of giving the "flattest top in town". I was vibrating out a flat top/spillover bang style every 15 minutes for10 yrs with those industrial old tyme barrel Oster electric barber shears (looked like some sheep shears). Not the nice little neck trim clippers or the larger type for in home barbering with the lenth guides that clamp on, no, this was old tyme, if you wanted a different size, you flipped the head up and put another size of $30 set of blades onto it. I did 3 or 4 clients and our average and that was an 8 hour day or 9 or 10 or... until we stopped accepting clients at regular closing hour of the shop and I finished the last that came in at 7 at 10pm. I think my hands would still vibrate for 10 years after I stopped doing that and I heard the constant phone ringing! When wide awake. I would also dream it and I would wake up and realize that I was no longer a Barber, and the phone was NOT ringing.
    When I had moved from the Barbershop to run my own booth in a larger salon, I still carried most of my clipper clients with me -the truth is, they found me...they were all connected by word of mouth and style advertisement, and i had begun clipper cuts on women for the 90's...so, I was still buzzin' in the 90's and could not get away from it until I retired in the 2K's! And if you're wondering how this all relates to your sander ... I used to run an orbital sander at my fiance's garage sometimes, on Sundays to help him catch up. I much prefer the random orbital action of a 2 handed sander/buffer than that one-handed old barrel-shaped barber clipper!

    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.
