And it's adorable! Her nomadic bus/van life community experience has been very fulfilling too. 👉🏡 *Watch a tour of a vintage-style tiny house w/upcycled antique furniture:* ruclips.net/video/Bo_ZqGENe94/видео.html

    Great build and the website mentioned is excellent, prices are good. I’m still in the “I’ll buy the vehicle and the supplies. I’ll also gofer and do any chores I can as well as designing the interior. You do the heavy stuff. Remove seats, build out pretty much everything, do solar, etc, etc.” Think I would put shower and potty back next to bed , maybe even put some small partition on other side of potty/shower walls. The rest would be kitchen, whatever else. Guess I’m a bit squeamish about having potty in kitchen area. No matter. Just a pipe dream . You have done an awesome job and I love the overall size of the bus! Perfect size and I’m with you about having a shower in my bus. Congratulations. Vaya con Dios!!

    Love her little home. It's perfect. I also like that she travels with a group. Can't say it enough for single women. Have a dog and safety in numbers, that way is any thing happens you have some kind of help. Be it a break down, wires burn or short, head light goes out, keeps break ins and robbery very low if at all as well as sexual assault, domestic violence. Safety in numbers, especially after that girl was killed by her boyfriend during 2020 escapes to Florida his parents and family hid him and so on according to the news on TV. I can't remember the names of the couple. Any way safety in numbers is very important. Especially now, prices have gone up to the point home owners and renters have to have their 5 years old work to put fuel in the vehicle so the adults can get to work, lol. I hope that isn't happening, how ever every one gets the point. Video cameras on all those homes too. I have watched door bell news, my God the things people are stealing let alone checking door knows and normal mail theft and porch pirates. People in drugs etc. I hope all tiny home have some kind of surveillance around their rigs. Safety first then fun. Any way love your channel. We are looking for an rv now. Hoping to purchase one soon. See if we like it and go from there. I'm sure we will. As long as we have a shower and potty, we will be good. Lol

I want to be able to do something that i've been longing to do for a long time. i know Oahu is a small island but i have family all over through out kailua, and friend beyound wailua and wai'anae just to cruise and crash in my own home on wheels will be a journey and a new chapter to begin. i have been serching for information and you have been giving a lot of tips. i live on the hawaiian homestead in Nanakuli and one day i will leave it to my ohana it once belonged to my mother but originally it was passed down to us by my tutu lady so i understand the concept of family especially locals like us its easy to get along with anybody and make friends along the way. It was great watching your blog and inspiratinal to know that a local tita can build a life on the road and be content at the same time, God bless you and safe travels on your adventures. Later.....
