VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Lauren and Nik didn't have any struggles downsizing into their tiny home. After college living and the pandemic, moving into a 40ft International skoolie seemed easy! They did a 10" roof raise that enhanced the gorgeous open layout. There's a massive kitchen with ample storage and counter space, with a residential-sized fridge and pantry.
This tiny home on wheels has 1000 watts of solar and 110 gallons of fresh water on board. The cozy feeling acquired throughout this build must come from the wood-burning stove, the hand-tiled wet bath, and the two pups that call it home.

This bus is very roomy. Great layout, great thought into the build. Very Cozy. One of the top best builds I've seen so far.
Probably one of the best conversions I’ve seen. Everything you’ve chosen is what I would have chosen too ☺️
This is one of the best, most practical and comfortable conversions I've seen!
Beautiful little home and a super cute couple! This is probably one of my favorite bus builds and I love the aesthetic of the interior. 🤗
I am Loving this home 🏘️...very well thought out for everything needed 👍🏿👍🏿 it's good to see and know that there are still young adults with great thinking 💯 thank you for sharing and I'm truly inspired. Safe and happy travels 🙏🏿💪🏿✌🏿
Wow! Your place is beautiful! You have a ton of space. I absolutely love your design. You really did a wonderful job!👍🏽
Love how you didn't plan it all down to the millimeter. So refreshing.
Really love how neat and organized the utility closet is, you can see manuals and invoices and sticky notes 😍
Beautiful home...it's nice to be in bigger space than a small one...your home is light and airy....your fur baby is gorgeous 😍....lots of luck ❤️
I really like the layout, you made choices based on the current climate (i.e. supply chain situation). Good job of living in your bus and figuring out what you definitely needed.
This is about a perfect build. The only thing I would change is the eating space. I prefer a table and chair style to make it more like a kitchen, And since they feel like they have more storage than they need I would remove the front unit with the baskets and add some kind of cushy chairs
Oh, keep the baskets! I love the look of them below the unit! Cozy space for meals is
Nice!
Beautiful and comfortabl 🚌
house on wheels It's a good job 👍
Such a beautiful home...ya'll did very good planning it out. Oh dont worry, in time your empty storage will get filled lol. Good luck in your adventures and God bless.
That's a really cool bus. I like how clean the quality of the build is without feeling sterile.
100% agree on the AC fridge. If your power system can support it that's the way to go.
This is a nice build. I love the bathroom. You have room to put in a bedroom for children. It's very homey.
Great use of space and a beautiful home.
You're an amazing couple, with a bright, wonderful home!
Great story of how you guys built your bus. It's nice how you organised and made the DIY features. 😊😊
If internet is a problem, try Nomad internet instead of the little jet pack type thing you have now. It might be a better fit. Nice, well thought out floor plan. Happy trails y'all
You guys are fantastic ! Great design ! You guys had money ! ...jk.. Absolutely 💯 % beautiful & livable. And Lauren , your hands are so pretty , your wedding ring is very nice
GOOD LUCK GOD BLESS STAY SAFE 🙏 💛
Nice rig! If you have extra room I would get a soak tub. If you have somewhere to store it you can pull it out and set it up either in your living area or outside and take your time filling it with super hot water and have a long hot soak instead of a 30 second shower. God bless and good luck in all your endeavors. 😎
Great job guys! Very well thought out and looks really attractive. Personally do like the extra space... keeps the bus looking clean and uncluttered...and also makes mobile life easier with dogs. Many more happy travels. Hey from Australia. 🌈
Gorgeous built
Living life! Cute couple you are and supporting each other! Gorgeous place.
Excellent raised bus conversion, the large size made it much easier to build out. You two did a super job. Love it.
I have a 1989 36 foot HMC, the advantage of a used motorhome is simplicity, but I would prefer a bus. I do have some dry rot, not sure when I will have time to repair it.
Beautiful Bus! Great job on everything! Lovely couple!
This is just lovely, I love the design and all the little touches that make it home. I could totally live in this bus, enjoy your adventures 😊
Wow! I’ve been watching these buses and vans being built, and they all have great ideas, but yours is my favorite for sure! 🎩
I really love your build and the decisions you made as you went along! Very real and relatable! Thank you for sharing best wishes to you!
I like your house bus
OMG---I love this! Thank you so much for such a lovely and informative video! I LOVE the dinette, and everything you said made so much sense. How lucky you are to have each other!
Love your bus!
I love your timey home
This thing is insane🤯 luxury for sure.
Great looking home. Very lovely and functional.
Wow this is so pretty
This is so beautiful, absolutely love everything about it!😍
I really like the layout , makes it look like a true home . Nice job!!
I didn't even know lifting the roof on something like was even possible. Thats insane. And cool
Thanks for sharing your tour. It's a super project. One thing I worry about with school buses is whether they break down more than other vehicles?
Thanks for sharing this with us. You did a fantastic job 👏 👍
KUDOS & Congrats! Great job you two, may you be blessed with Incredible Journeys ahead!
Fantastic layout. Great home!
You have done a tremendous job. Enjoy
Beautiful home
Great set up! Great to have the bathroom too. You're off to a good start in life.

Parabéns pela iniciativa de compartilhar conhecimento e Experiências aqui. Vou seguir a jornada de vocês aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
Beautiful 😍
I love your tiny home
Something not stressed in all these interviews is how they continue to support this lifestyle.
They talked quite a bit about how they both have digital jobs that they do on the road.
I really like ur kitchen sink, u could wash ur socks & smalls in there. U have a nice home.
I really like the bus 🚐
That was amazing 🤩
I really like your bus. Very nice
Another tiny home channel mentioned that Starlink has a system to install on Sckoolies or RV for Satellite Internet. You might want to contact them and check it out.
Very nice . beautiful
Love this!
Great home~
1 word #Phenomenal 👌🏾🙌🏾
( I want A layout like this in an RV to travel summers w/the kids ). Would love to have them help us w/ the build …the thought ..the planning ..the details #Superb 🫶🏾 ( that all in one Ventless w/d combo & entire bathroom set up are my faves ..oh & the custom bed too lol 😂 I literally can’t wait to do this in an RV … so cool 😎 🙌🏾
Love the wall art behind your husband what is that made of? Bus is awesome . Happy travels. 💜🙏🏻
Thank you for the tour. That's a awesome tiny home. How much money did it cost in total?
You 2 did a very nice design and layout floor plan. The raised roof makes is look so much bigger. That was a good idea. All pluming of joints in one area. I like the stove idea, also. Cooking stove is better than electric. Where's the guest room, just joking.
Very classy!
amazing, love it
Starlink is coming soon to moving homes, just keep up with what is available and when.
Can you share your bathroom sink?! We are converting a bus too and we have been having a hard time finding a small sink for our bathroom. That sink looks like it would easily fit into our bathroom!
Hi, can you please make a video of the details costs of everything,
And also places and costs to park on a monthly+ basis?
How long did it take you to make the house?
Thank you!
Gosh, you are asking a lot. Some of this you can research for yourself. But maybe this couple will let you copy their homework. lol.
Awesome❣️
SWEET!!
❤❤❤
Nice
I wonder how much insurance is on something like this. Is it regular car insurance or something else because it's also a home?
Looks great.
But how heavy is that now as with all the heavy wood, tile and appliances fascinated to know what it tops out at.
We’ve actually never gotten weighed, definitely something we’ve always been curious of too!
@@laurenweinmeister4082 I have a class A and GW is important for both safety and longevity of vehicle and people as it has design limits on things like tires, brakes etc.
Insurance also may have an issue if something were to happen..
I do love what you built though.😁
This bus is immaculate!!!! Just one question: does it get pretty stuffy in your bedroom during the summer months? I didn’t see an air conditioner in the rear or a skylight for extra ventilation.
Thank you! We have an AC unit in the middle of the bus that circulates through really well. We also keep a little oscillating fan in there too.
They REALLY need to add the COST of the bus, the renovation, monthly expenses etc..
New sub ! Liked ✌️🤩👍🙏
Out of curiosity, what was the scrapyard that you ended up getting the bus from in VA? Im a VA resident looking to build a skoolie soon.
I am wondering if there is an answer to this question yet or if someone found the answer elsewhere.
❤
Hey I just subbed to Brian bear Butler’s RUclips (found him on primal outdoors). Didn’t know he shoots these videos. What a cool tiny world! Y’all check out his channel.
Hi she said we went with this route. Which route was that? Its either RV propane or solar considered but they went with this route. Did anyone catch which route?
Sorry for the confusion, we went with a 120V fridge.
I don't get why so many people put their water systms in close proximity to electical systms of any kind...lovely bus but that makes me anxious just looking at it.
Gorgeous bus build… but I wasn’t clear on the fridge… was it an RV / Propane fridge or 120V? It sounded like it is propane, but she stopped mid thought and just said “I recommend this method” but didn’t specifically say what that method was.
Our fridge is 120V, sorry for the confusion on that!
@@laurenweinmeister4082 no worries… thank you for replying! Love the build you did!
Very impressive for such young people having the money to do all this. Did you guys save and pay cash or did you have to go into debt? Thanks.
We owned the bus for 19 months before finishing it and moving in, we just saved up and paid cash for the conversion as we went along.
Nice job! I am confused about the fridge... she recommends you go this route - which route? She seems to say it is plug in but then she says it uses "no solar power." Is she exaggerating? Does she mean very little solar power? It is really helpful to be very clear in describing things like this. Otherwise, a lovely tour.
Think she meant reg fridge on solar, rather than a smaller RV fridge
Sorry about that, it’s a 120V fridge and it uses very little power on our setup.
@@laurenweinmeister4082 Thanks very much for the clarification. Good to know! Could you share the brand name and where you got it?
Some of the Tiny Home Tours fans might be ready to by a part time or full time tow and parking site at 'Incredible Tiny Homes' by Randy Jones in Tennessee. See his 'incredibox' at the lowest cost, you do the rest to save money. He builds and sells tows and sites for almost any tow person. You can buy them and put them in your backyard to rent out to a college student, etc. The most extreme river rafting athletes (Olympic level) might want to by a parking spot that floods about one month per year to visit other national parks nearby, etc. All the other parking sites and tows are away from water. He lost everything in 2008 and his friends helped him get back into business. He started out as a public school teacher and gradually taught himself how to build quality homes. After 2008 his wife convinced him to go tiny. June 2022
Very nice informative tour and I want to wish the both of you happy journeys filled with wonderful times !!!! Be sure to stay safe and purchase yourselfs a handgun to be sure that you prevail if you two are ever assaulted or attacked in a vicious incident !!!! There is no substitute for readiness and awareness. Better safe than sorry is the take away here in my speil !!! Bye
I love your build!
Where’s this school bus graveyard?
Starlink will solve ur internet problem.
Not really no , their speeds have dropped off due to the recent load and they have pretty much juat made it so you have to be in specific areas for it to work and they dont cover all areas of the world yet. Not to mention the high equipment cost + montly bill for it has increased by a lot.
Can t stand his voice nor his humm all the time but beautiful bus
What's your pronoun Lauren?
Pointless comment is pointless.
Who wants two nasty dogs on a nice bus but it's messed up now with dogs
