- In todays video we visit with Sawyer and Chelsea who grew up together and have been together since high school. Right after granulation they purchased this used school bus with dreams of turning it into a skoolie conversion to travel full time and live out of while traveling on the road. This project has taken approximately three years and now it is complete, they leave to following day after this video was filmed.

What I find most amazing about these conversions is how well decorated and functional they are. The inside of this bus looks like a house! I love it (and the little dog too).
Thank you very much. I have some exciting episodes coming up. All filmed, edited and scheduled now through September.
I drove a 72 passenger tc and Freightliners for several years and those mirrors that you didn't care for the look off are a important safety feature I would consider reinstalling them because they help with blind spots
Good tip
I second that suggestion, the more visibility, the better.
At least put a set of collapsible one’s.
I love the look on the doggie like this is my space 😍💖🐕❤
😂 yes
What a great build! Love the warmth of the wood ceiling. The whole thing seems comfy cozy. Love all the space that comes with a bus and this couple sure has used it all very well. It looks well thought out to me. Very impressed with this couple. They are so young but have created something so complex and did a great job.
Thank you very much Malinda
Very Good bus ! What a good rule of thumb is to have the man speak of the mechanics,
and the lady to give a Ture of the Interior ! It adds a nice touch to a bus video !
These two are a great team because i can tell his girl will get right in there and work hard and she takes pride i hope he appreciates her she looks like a really great person.
You could never get sick of living in a bus.. This is so adorable.
Go for it
They’re so cute! “Pee’s good for the world” 😄 Awesome build. Thanks, Patrick!
Yours is definitely the nicest bus I’ve seen. You did a perfect job with storage and doggie space. I really love it.
Thank you very much!
Agree
I absolutely love your skooolie home.. It had my dream entry iron rails.. I thought that no one would think of that👍👍🥰🥰🥰
You color scheme is my dream bud home.. I love the brick walls for the kitchen off set from the black &white colors.
You guys are in NJ.. I would love to see your home I'm in NY.. wow 👍🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you very much for the positive feedback
Well design layout. Two nice young couple. Thanks for sharing your bus be safe.
Thank you very much
A beautiful perfect home
It really is!
Nice and well designed camper. The ceder ceiling, brick wall is just awesome. The greenery gives it a freshing feel. Like the dogs place too. Happy travels.
Thanks so much!
You guys did a wonderful job…. It’s beautiful
We have a winner. Most beautiful bus reno I've ever seen.
Thank you very much
what an amazing bus!!! I loved what they did.
Thank you very much Thais.
R Ann Sayger: great minds think alike…..I was going to suggest a mini split also.
Their bus is beautiful in its design and craftsmanship. Good job you two! I love it!!!
Safe and happy travels!!!
😎✌️🤙🤘😎
Thank you for the feedback Diane
Very nice. Lots of hard work.
A/C (mini split)a future project 👍
They did a great job. Happy travels.
Goals 👍🏽
A mini split a/c would be the icing on the cake
Love the decor on this build, practical and cosy
Love this more than a tiny house
Great home and great people. ✌🏻❤️ I especially like how the fireplace doesn’t take up a ton of space.
Thank you buddy checking this out
Beautiful build! You two did a great job! I especially like the creative use of the wooden wine box for a drawer!
This couple took on a huge challenge (with, most likely, very little knowledge or prior building skills) and produced a high quality build. They should be very proud of what they have accomplished.
Nice bus redo, you guys did a great job, Patrick as always well done
Thanks Scott
Love this schoolie
Thank you Melody
That is so amazing. So much room, so many personal touches. Amazing job.
Thank you very much Jonnie. I had so much fun filming this one too
I love it. It's perfect.
The school bus conversions you show are absolutely awesome.
Thank you. Move to come, so exciting.
That bed that pulls out looks so comfy and beautiful 😍
It does!
I literally came back and watched that part of the video again to see that comfy bed 😂
What a great couple and what an awesome home
It's beautiful, organized, and a real home - WOW, super proud of these two young people :)
Love everything; shoe 👞 cabinet, Floorplan, farmhouse sink...location of sink, HUGE wardrobe, doggie cubby, brick wall and wood stove....the only thing (4me a BIG thing) I dislike is the lack of a bathroom sink....
Thank you for the feedback
This is exactly why I love people with DIY ideas like myself.. because thanks this video you just gave me an idea for my camper trailer I'm going to building a stand up shower.. thanks you guys in the bus DIY Style..
They nailed this one
Wow! Watched so many vids but this has gotta be one of my favourites. Live in the UK but love the bus homes. Hope you two and your dogs are super happy on the road 😄
Oh wow. Awesome 👏🏼
Beautiful.
Thank you Donna
This is one of your best videos Patrick! Thanks to NJOA for producing it.
What an outstanding build for a DIY project. They really planned out and executed a great use of space. Their decor gives this skoolie a real nice home feeling. Hard to believe this nice couple is right out of high school for their first build! And they want to build them for a living? Where can I invest??
Also, love that cute little dog.
Thank you very much Richie. They are on to something here.
Beautiful bus you both did an amazing job 👍good luck to both of you May Our Dear Lord keep you both safe
Thank you very much Marlene
Impressive!
Thank you very much Cheryl
So excited for this lovely couple! They have done a beautiful job, and the 3 years of labor shows. Good luck to them, and thank you, NJOA, for posting this.
Thank you. I had been following their build for a long time, it’s great to see them on the road full time now.
Excellent conversion. I suggest using Coroplast panels cut to fit skylights. The corrugated plastic has enough give to bend, yet firm enough to snap in place. Cut it small enough to easily slip in, with a few longer tabs to hold it in place. What I used for van windows. Used double sided carpet tape to hold reflectix to black coroplast. You are not worried about stealth so you could use white.
I have viewed a lot of bus conversions and this is the best put together one I have seen, well done‼️👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow, thanks!
Beautiful for young adults right out of high-school!💖💞🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Cute couple & an amazing home on wheels! Just beautiful!
Thank you for the support
Beautiful build! Thanks for sharing your home.
Thank you John.
I love the pull out dog bowls. One side for the giant and one to keep the little one from being stepped on.
Awesome build❣️❣️❣️❣️
Yay! Thank you!
Wow, I love it! You both did a great job and it looks amazing.
Thank you! Cheers!
Grooovy guys!!!!
Thank you buddy checking in Thomas
Beautiful job! The plants make it so homey!🥰
Thank you very much
They did a beautiful job!
Thank you Kristin
Best looking schoolie yet. Love it !!
Wow, thank you!
AMAZING!
Thank you very much James
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures Sawyers dad. 😁
Kudos you did a great diy job & made it into a home! You show you don’t have to be an expert carpenter, etc to do a good job with bus conversions! A lot of thought went into planning & building this! I was quite surprised when you mentioned the insurance trouble you had because that’s something most people don’t mention or think of! It’s important to know that for all the people who are thinking of doing conversions themselves! They will be better prepared thanks to you!! Good luck!
Thank you very much Lillian
Absolutely beautiful. They did an awesome job!! Best wishes on your maiden voyage. It looks very organized as well. I love your outside table too!
Thank you very much Sherry
You can install a three way toggle switch and it will reverse the polarity to run the motor backwards so the fan will work in both directions not that difficult to do and it won't cause any issues with the motor, enjoy.
Probably one of the best I’ve seen, so cozy and so nicely decorated.
Wow, thank you!
Awwwww! He wants to play. Lol. So cute.
Patrick, you are correct, this is one of the nicest skoolies I’ve ever seen! Definitely at the top! I would hire them to build a tiny home someday! They are a such a sweet couple… and still together after building their own home on wheels! That says a lot =). Have a great weekend! Looks like another rainy one here in the northeast, but we’ll take whatever sunshine comes our way! ~ Maria
Thank you very much Maria. What was your favorite feature?
WOOOOO....yes this is very impressive ...they did a great job ...
Thank you all for sharing
Safe travels.💕🙏🏾
Our pleasure!
You will not regret the composting toilet. It's so much better than dealing with a black water tank.
Wow what a great renovation!! Very well thought out and elegant! This is what I would do!!
Thanks so much!
This is one of the most beautiful buses 🚍 I’ve seen the finishes are nice and it’s just the right amount of what u need love it great job. Love the brick walls
You did an incredible job on your bus/ home it looks extremely comfortable. I don't think I would have done anything different
Thank you very much Jerry
Hey Patrick, hands down the best build on your channel thus far. Absolutely beautiful ✌
Oh wow, thank you
Well thought out, beauty. These kids are darling. Great video. "Happy trails." Safe travels.
Thank you! You too!
Neat couple. Really like their bus. The tile in the shower is really nice. And the metal partition for the plants to grow up on is a super find and fits perfect! Really a neat home. The outside table is super nice too along with the shower. Enjoyed the video Patrick!
❤️💜💚
We agree! Thanks Paige.
Excellent tour! Actually even better than that because you kept the descriptions brief ( i.e. excruciating TMI of drawer and cabinet etc. contents) and the pace moving. Thanks for sharing your home. It’s a winner! Happy travels.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Good job, you two! Keep going!
Thank you Chris
Great job! I loved the way you all took turns doing the description.
Thank you 😊
One of the most 💖💝🌸gorgeous tiny house ever 🌸🌹💝
I love your bus! You guys definitely put in lots of work! It is an amazing build, congrats with your journey. Your plants are thriving and beautiful!
The cockpit is TOPNOTCH!!!!!
Thanks so much!
Another great DIY job I love it when people DIY and do things themselves like me.. they are not Punk like I am.. but they're still DIY..
Thank you 🙏🏼 thank
for your sky lights, Walmart has those thin adjustable curtain rods and if you put one at the top and one at the bottom of each skylight window. Then make blackout curtains with the curtain rod slide throughs on the top and bottom of each curtain. Cut the curtains in half so when you push them open you get lots of light without the curtains taking up too much room. Also, you can get vinyl faux stained glass and stick it to the skylights so you still get lots of beautiful sunlight without it being too bright, and their are many different kinds that are very beautiful. You can order them on the internet or sometimes Lowes or Home Depot carries them but you have a lot less selection.
Thank you for the suggestion
Very well planned looking amazing great to see some of the Young generation have patience nice job.
Love love love you're all's bus!!!!❤️
Thank you Melissa
Beautiful rolling home! Thank you for sharing
You would think that it would be the same like other conversions why not,right? it's the same rectangular space... But it always turns out to be awesome, each and everyone of them has distinct characters and I think that's the beauty and appeal of vans, bus etc conversions and this one is no exception of that awesomeness, beautiful build, simple and clean, nice couple cute dogs, perfect. I enjoyed watching this actually everything I watched here in your channel Patrick I enjoyed a lot. Safe travels always.
Thank you. Yes, it’s amazing all the ideas 💡 people have.
I enjoy watching the skoolie builds more than the van conversions as the vans all seem to have the same layout whereas the skoolies are all different!
Impressive build!
By far the nicest I've seen only thing missing is the AC
Soon to come
Speaking of insurance, it would seem there would be some company that would want to be friendly to skoolie owners and suck up a large market share of the business. My wife and I will be building a skoolie this year (2024) and spending our retirement years on the road! You guys did such a cool job on your bus! Very impressive!
Nice bus. You did a great job with the interview, Patrick. So cool that you all went to the same high school. 👍
Thank you, that really means a lot to me
Wow, I love your design. You did a fantastic job with this bus!
Thank you very much!
I agree with what someone else said looks like a home inside!
Great features, great job!
I love the way you designed the shower! It's beautiful! A quick fix for covering the skylights, you can do tension rods, that way they're easily adjustable. Safe travels 🙏
Great idea of tension rods! 👏
Well done! Kudos to these two young people for making such a beautiful tiny-home-on-wheels. Love the plants.....and the puppers! omg so cute!!!
I really loved it. God bless you both...
That’s awesome that’s the best bus I’ve seen yet I’ve seen a lot of them.
Timelessly beautiful. 🤩
OMG y'all have a lovely home God bless enjoy
Wow, these kids did a stellar job on this bus! I would happily live in it exactly as it is.
Hey Patrick thats was the best build yet it was great inside loved it
Thank you very much. I was very excited to feature them
Dash designs makes retractable shades for windshield that might work good for your skylights if you haven't come up with anything else
Great information
Wow! Awesome kick-a$$ build. This couple looks so Peace-Love-Tie Dye...but they living total Boardwalk. ✌
Thank you for sharing... ❤🌻🐾 Where's your big-dog? The little one is chill.
Dang! This is perfect 👌 🤩 Y’all did such a wonderful job!
Thank you very much Pam
