Personal Development is why we are here. You go girl, you doing you is why we watch.

[@richardmoore2590]

I can live without the bus, I just don’t want to lose the lady that built her. Keep those videos coming, and whatever endeavor you chose, there is no doubt you will succeed.

[@davep6977]

Emma just remember your "embarrassing " fails as you put is our entertainment. And we've ALL been there! Your fun to water and your personality is perfect. I'll miss the episodes.

[@karagregory69]

I think when people say don't sell the bus, I think they really mean, don't stop posting videos on KZbin. I love your videos, if its working on a bus, taking the monkey down a bumpy road or your next chapter in your life. I hope you bring us along and look forward to the next video. Do what makes you happy, and I'm excited for the next chapter.

[@espnmk]

Emma you can say "being there done that" move it along why do people get attached to things clutch, cradle, cling, cherish. Respect that fact you get the use of of something that was fun, brought happiness to you and others also enjoyed it, you had your fill time to unload it and onto bigger and better things. Well can't wait to see what adventures you have planned Birbie will me missed but in our thoughts... Thanks for sharing.

[@smavtmb2196]

Hi from Vancouver BC 🇨🇦 I'm 12days late commenting so likely no one will read this but No worries. I followed your bus journey and you clearly have learned alot and experienced personal growth in the process. You should be very proud of your accomplishments. Now its time for a new adventure. I wish you all the best. On a small side note: I appreciate that you care enough about the environment to pick up that crushed can/trash that someone dumped. I'm not suprised by your display of good character.

[@LuciaLeePollard51]

My initial response to this was sadness, then you reminded me you’re on a new season of life. And that made me happy for you because you’re an adventurer and the adventure goes on. The second response I had was I want that bus.!! It is the coolest pass my favorite color. However, I’m 71 years old and I can’t imagine mean maneuvering a bus that big around the United States doing the things that I want to do. But let’s just say somebody younger might take on the project of driving the bus!

[@nashdiy8570]

While it’s sad to see Birbie go, I’m excited to see your new project. I think my favorite thing is just seeing what new shenanigans you get into. Also what’s the next project?

[@patriciaharkin1571]

Building Birbie has built your confidence - you set yourself a challenge and you achieved it. So what if you made mistakes, scared the c**p out of yourself, embarrassed yourself and spent way too much money; those things are what life is about. Best wishes for your next venture and I hope you take us along.🥰🥰

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

💙💙💙

[@ronnievance6835]

Nothing wrong with new ideas and goals. I believe that whatever you set out to do,you’ll see it to the end, what ever it takes because that’s who you are 😀

[@kenhoward3512]

You can always be proud of completing (and thoroughly documenting) such an impressive project as "Birbie the Bus." You did the bus-thing, and now... further unexpected thrills to come!

[@graffix11us]

I think the people who get upset about you ending your bus life are just living through you and your adventures. If they had any adventures of their own, they would be excited to see what's next. I love the fact that you put everything you had into this bus for a while and are now moving on to something else. I'm currently sitting in my RV at a bike race watching this video and just excited to see where you go next! I can definitely say this has been a learning experience and you have gained a world of skills you wouldn't otherwise have right now. Go learn more cool stuff 🙂 Also, thanks for taking the time and effort to document your journey, it has been a blast to watch.

[@alvincoston2051]

I’ve seen you acquire and build the bus. I’m extremely proud of you. Looking forward to your next endeavor. Be strengthened and encouraged.

[@gonzo919]

Nothing wrong with moving on to something else, I've enjoyed everything about your bus life, I can't wait to see what's next, way 2 go Emma ! ❤

[@msehruz7489]

You're a capable girl who dives in and sweats it to get it done. I admire your tenacity.

[@cassandralyne]

As someone that has also owned, started to renovate, and sold a bus... I understand how difficult all of it was. I also see the way it took off on social media, especially during the pandemic and how most have entirely moved away from bus/van life and onto flipping/redoing a home or plot of land. I can't or won't say I'm disappointed, because you need to do whatever you need/want to do... but I am kinda sad to see how many people back out after they gain an audience based on bus/van/reno life. Wish you the best of luck on your next endeavor!

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

Thank you!! I guess I just don't really see it that way - I wanted to try something new with the bus build and happened to gain an audience while I did that. It never came from a burning passion for living on the road or tiny living, which I know is a huge motivating factor for a lot of people who do build out vehicles. I feel that I've gotten what I can get from the bus and I'm ready to try the next new thing. If that loses me the audience the bus build gained me, I think that's fair and can honestly say I'm okay with it :)

[@cassandralyne]

@@EmmaBuildsBirbie You have the best attitude about it. & honestly... we can all have the opinions we want, but what you do moving forward has got to be right for you! Plus, how can we know if something works or doesn't work unless we dive in a give it a shot?! Glad you've learned a lot from the bus, I know I did in my situation - cheers to the next season of life!

[@funkymcmonkey187]

Onward and upward! I'm looking forward to seeing your future endeavors, Emma!

[@withazee66]

I think you did you did a great job tackling the bus conversion/living-in-it challenge. I had a good time following along and never thought of any moment as embarrassing. As a matter of fact, your human moments were a great break and so much more real than other bus-life vlogs. From an outsider looking in, I think you should be proud of your accomplishment. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next. That is...if you'll still give us the privilege of watching your journey. Onward and upward!

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

I am proud of myself despite everything! Thank You :) and I plan to stay on KZbin for the time being

[@jtec99]

Fuq Yeah! On to next! Like seriously, who amongst us here in the bowels of the comment section can say we'd even have the fortitude to have even stuck through the whole build? That was invaluable life experience that will actually translate into every future endeavor. Looking forward to the next milestone marker homeslice.

[@rictri03]

Love your adventures. Keep the videos coming, Emma ❤❤❤❤

[@michaelvega5389]

Hi Emma, …well, I have read every comment so far on this just released video about putting up Birbie for sale. I just wanted to give you my 100% support and a little perspective from my point of view, just about ready to celebrate my 62nd birthday on November 3rd. I am still adjusting to a major life change as I had to stop working due to lower back, hip and knee pain/degenerative issues. I have considerable mobility issues, have to ride the electric cart at WalMart etc. I have now been approved for full Social Security disability. I wish I had the opportunity to make life choices as you have at this time in your life. You are such a brave person to have done something so remarkable and out of your comfort zone such as buying and then converting this old bus into Birbie, your traveling companion! Even better for our sake, you bravely decided to allow all of us armchair experts to come along for the adventure. I have thoroughly enjoyed both your successes and failures, mostly laughing along at both. So many people, especially at your age, give in to fear and self doubt and are not willing to risk anything to experience the adventure, much less the exhilaration if you happen to accomplish your goals! If not, even thru failure much is learned. Just imagine, when your reach the stage I am now living life at, if you had not just learned (while you were still a young adult), how resilient you are even when you wanted to give up. Instead, you kept at the problem and even if the answer was not the way someone else would have resolved it, still overcame and moved forward! You will learn, young or old, we all will have some regrets but certainly yours will not include quitting at the 1st or even the 20th sign of trouble on the Birbie adventure. I do hope the negative comments some post does not overpower the overwhelming majority of your followers who truly enjoyed the adventure because of you, Birbie is awesome but you are the reason we stayed watching every week. I do hope you continue on with your channel, it has been my privilege to join you every week. I will continue to enjoy your wonderful perspective on life and your adventures as you see fit! Best of luck on your sale of Birbie, she will serve the next owner well. Michael 🤗😁

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

this is so nice, thank you for taking the time to write this! 💙

[@baddog340]

I have watched you from day one. I have enjoyed every minute that you shared with us. You have made me laugh a lot. I respect your decision to move in a different direction and i just hope that you continue to share with us. Also, I totally respect the fact that you have got extreme guts and courage at such a young age. Do what makes you happy and keeps life exciting. Will you make mistakes along the way? You sure will but those are the most educational times. All this coming from a 63 year retired man so I know a good bit about making life decisions. I wish you the best luck in all your adventures and look forward to seeing what's next. Go get'um girl.

[@markscheurich2196]

Congrats on your decision! I’m sure what you do next will grow you more and more, can’t wait to see what it is and the best of luck!

[@chadmutchler5062]

You do you !!! I’ve watched from the beginning and the amount of growth you’ve had is absolutely amazing. You can do anything you want now.

[@carls4552]

I've been here from pretty much the beginning and have loved watching you build the bus and build your confidence. I'm sad that you're selling the bus but you have to do what you need, not what we want. I hope you keep this channel going and let us watch you grow in your next project.

[@craigtoups5786]

life goes on and adventures abound! You go girl and we will watch.

[@mscarlarn]

Girl! How exciting! Can’t wait to see your new build. Congratulations

[@quintonsoule1061]

I glad you doing what works for you. But I'm so proud of you, you have come a long way. I loved everything you did and you.

[@arnoldsnodgrass2953]

Congratulations; new ventures are exciting and to be grabbed with eagerness. I’m sure you’ll have a blast.

[@kannieschrijfnie2042]

For me,and as I read I’m not alone in this, we love you for being yourself and doing the things you want to do. So I’ll be looking forward to see what you’ve decided to do next in life. Whatever it is I know you will give it your best and apart from some failures probably during the process in the end will be successful. Or not which would also be fine. Lessons learned and move on. You dare to do what most of us don’t dare to do I think. Looking at myself first haha. Have a good time and hope to hear your plans soon. Greetings from 🇳🇱👋

[@helenac.4081]

Thank You Emma❤ I love happy endings!! Many blessings to you!

[@jacquitabeddo6621]

Congrats on striking out on another new adventure, I also want to say I hope you get what you want for the bus!

[@jamesnewman4474]

Go with your gut young lady. If it feels right then it probably is the right choice. If you decide to get rid of your bus I’d be real interested in it. I recently got my 100% disability rating from the V.A. (prostate cancer) & decided it’s time to quit driving the big rig (turning 72 in a few days) and I’m looking for a chance to travel just for me. Good luck on your new life route.

[@bus.da.rhymes.1866]

Bravo, this has been been amazing to watch and we wish you every success in the future, wherever it takes you! 🙌

[@lsilva8431]

You will never regret a decision you make by yourself. Life is a series of decision. If you don't make them you will never learn. Go girl, the world is your to explore.

[@pnwusa]

looks like a nice ride emma. waaay to own your life girl! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼i am stoked for you! you know yourself better than anyone else on this entire planet. you know what ye want and don't want and what ye need. which is radically cool! especially at your age! have fun and enjoy your journey. fyi: you're the 2nd youtuber i have seen this last week sharing the yoshino portable battery. what i have researched and learned it all sounds like a good and solid battery. and yeah! it absolutely looks great too. well... you have had quite a ride with birbie emma. thanks for sharing it all with all of us in youtube land. continued travel mercies and blessings.🕊

[@TheBlake27]

You did great, it's been a blast watching the adventure so far, can't wait to see what you do next :)

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

thanks!

[@stephennowicki7158]

Wow! I can't wait to see what comes next. (The bus was cool!)😊

[@binghamcamps]

Thanks for the content. Good luck with your next mission. I appreciate your sense of humor and descriptions of the day-to-day things you get yourself involved in. Hopefully, you can take us on the next journey!

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

thank you! I plan to :)

[@mrmotofy]

Can't argue with the knowledge and more importantly CONFIDENCE you gained in learning adapting and overcoming all the challenges...You're realizing you're more than just a talker...you're a walker...

[@allens-place]

I have been watching your chanel since day one, it is amazing how you have grown up and the self confidence that you have gained. Congratulations 🎉

[@larswennskog5239]

Hi Emma! Good luck with what ever your next project will be.🙂❤️

[@ashleyvega4595]

Congratulations on your next chapter. A bus build certainly gives you some perspective 😅 on life. Thank you for your honesty though out the process 🙏🏼

[@dougintothesunset]

I don't doubt your ability to do anything Emma. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to the new project.

[@billsandrelli957]

Emma I am very excited to see the next chapter. My thoughts, which have no value here, are it is YOUR life and again I can't wait to see what happens next.

[@D_R_Martin]

It has been a ton of fun watching you make your way through the process of building and living in the bus. I am sure your new adventure will be challenging and filled with moments of doubt, but I look forward to seeing you successfully navigate those challenges. Best to you and good luck in getting the bus sold.

[@jessicathomas4672]

It is important to do what is right for you regardless of what other people say. You are an amazing and courageous person.

[@kraftystuff]

I am looking forward to your next adventure. The experience you (we) have gained in building Birbie is not learned in any textbook. Your courage and proven abilities will stand you in good stead in whatever you are up to. I have said before, and I know that following your projects is upbuilding and inspiring to many. Keep going, keep sharing, enjoy whatever you are doing. I am sure you will succeed. All the best.🙂

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

thank you so much :)

[@jamesorendorff2731]

Emma, from the very very beginning of your build... I've always wondered why are you building this big ol bus just for you alone to travel in ...busses are not an easy vehicles to just drive around in ...long story short....glad your downsizing... It'll be less stressful on you ..and that's what is important 🙏❤️

[@robertquinn9490]

On to the next chapter! I'm sticking with you.

[@Nicholas_Hamilton]

Life's about changes. Best wishes on your next chapter.

[@robbyoliver4953]

I am hoping we get to watch from our computers what comes next with you. As far as selling the bus if that is what you want then just do it. This is your life not anyone else’s, so it is not important to try to please everyone else. I watch because I love your go get it attitude. So I can’t think of what kind of project you will jump into next but I will be watching and cheering you on. Like I have from the beginning of Emma builds Birbie , love the vids and hope you keep making them. If not, you will be missed !

[@kevindunn590]

You did a great job building your bus for the first time and learning how to use power tools. It’s been fun watching your adventures with the bus. You keep moving forward and doing you!! Best of luck in your next adventure.

[@lingerseason]

Good for you in trying it out and realizing when it’s time to move on. I rebuilt my jeep and it was my first time doing anything like that and while a lot of it sucked and was anxiety inducing it was one of the most growing and rewarding challenges! All the best to your next project 🙂

[@hannahconroy2521]

Hey Emma! My partner and I live close by you in the Farr West/North Ogden area. We have been following you since day one on your bus journey, because we were starting our 40-foot bus build right at the same time! I relate with you immensely on all the struggles and feeling like an amateur during the build, yet it always made me giggle because even though we don't know each other, I felt that we were in this together and not alone. 2 and a half years later we are deciding to sell the bus too after only traveling in it fully this summer. So, I feel you on a soulful level of how the bus life journey is, especially on the note of who's going to want to buy a bus from someone who had no idea what they were doing lol. Our journey has been very similar to yours and I thought you would find comfort in knowing a neighbor is going through the same thing, as it has for me watching your videos. Let's sell these buses lady! I'm excited for you and for what the future has in store for you. I'll be cheering you on always!

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

so glad to hear this! let's get it done 💙💪

[@peteheatb3]

We watch your videos because of who you are! not because you are in a bus. Continue with your life adventure!

[@kathythorene5873]

Good luck in your next adventure. I so enjoyed your bravery in building a bus and traveling. Thank you for sharing.❤ ❤❤

thank you!

[@artnelson3402]

Emma, you are a gem and I've enjoyed watching every minute of your journey. Life comes in waves and you have to be ready to change direction when the time comes. Sounds like you are gonna do just that. I can't wait to watch you tackle whatever comes next and have no doubt that you'll do great at whatever it is. I've watched hour long videos of my favorite youtubers mowing grass.. I'd do the same for you. Good luck with this new phase of your life.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

thank you!!

hoping the next one goes smoother 😅

[@oggenable]

You're doing the right thing. The best parts of my life has been when I took a chance on something. Just do it! You more often regret the things that you DID NOT do than the things you DID.

Truthfully.. I was just here for Birbie. Have a great life. 😊

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching you build the bus and have your adventures! (And I’ve learned a few things watching your videos..lol). Thank you and looking forward to your next adventure! Changing direction is not failing or quitting, it’s growth and development! Go for it!

[@keithsumner1190]

Emma, I love your sense of humor, and the way you make your videos. If you decide to share your future adventures, I'd be ecstatic to follow along. Life is one adventure after another. Thank you!

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

thank you!!

[@jeffhouse2031]

Congrats on the new rig!! Last one I had (Toyo-taco) I sold with 275k miles and it was still running strong, so good choice of rig. I currently have a newer model access cab Tacoma. Yes you can certainly get into more places than you can the bus, (especially if its 4x4) and doing so will open up a whole new world of adventures for sure :-) ask me how I know. In time a topper (one that is higher than the cab--for more head room) can be built out for weekend and longer adventures and travel. Not the room of a van, but certainly adequate for extended trips. This year I took my son to Alaska and back (I live in OH) and we boondocked it the whole trip. We have a bunk in the back, and traded off sleeping in the cab or bunk. You can also use the receiver motorcycle carrier on the truck as well again opening up more opportunities for expanded adventures by taking your lil Honda Monkey with you. I frequently pack for weekend truck camping and either throw kayak on top, or my motorcycle on the back. Lots of possibilities young lady, I am sure you will put things together to suit your next season, and hope you continue to share with us as well.

[@fredzoler2750]

You can do what you want. Hope you take us along on your next adventure👍

[@justplaintommy63]

Hi Emma. I know you don't need it, but you have my support. lol. Hey I'm just like you, everything has a life span, we just need to know when it's time to move on. I just say I love what you did with Birbie, and I thank you for sharing this part of your life with me. I would only ask that you keep coming back here, and share the next venture with us. I can really relate to how things go for you, and how you deal with them. In that respect, we are a lot alike. You get some rest and enjoy a little time off. 🤗

[@GerardRomeijn]

Thanks for your nice video’s! From a European perspective, we absolutely like the way you’re showing us the beautiful country you’re living in. The lakes, mountains, just roads… maybe especially those moments ... Filming from your bus, or the Monkey while driving, is to us a bit like actually being there. Might sound strange, but it is. We live a lot of the time in the south of France, which is by the way quite pretty as well… only much smaller ;-). Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ‘embarrassing’ moments, your honesty. Well appreciated! Whatever you plan to do next, wish you a lot of fun doing it!

[@vonheise]

I would have been interested in the bus 20 years ago, but my camping days are winding down at 77, but I will keep and use the camper in the spring and fall as long as I can still walk. It's your life to live, not anyone else. Reality is, based on watching other channels, is that if you depend on KZbin for income, you will have to do something that interests others, if not, then it doesn't matter in the least what you do if it pleases you....

[@charlesbrunner258]

It’s been a great ride can’t wait to go on the next one THANKS

[@nourltuber]

Listen, I have watched you since the beginning. You have entertained me from the start! Yeah, I will miss the bus but I will be looking forward to see your next journey in life. Just keep being you Emma! 😁👍 When I see you smile, it's so contagious 😁😆😄😉😏 Keep smiling, it looks good on you! Can't wait to see what you do! 👋🫤😟😁

[@frankking1404]

Look at who you are now compared to who you were 2.5 years ago..... you ARE the same person, but then now you are a better, much better version of yourself! The same can be said after your month in Portugal. I am retired and yet I admire you. I have built my van out and wonder sometimes if I should sell her. I have the boat that I wanted for years and yet now I am wrestling with selling that too. STUFF DOES NOT EQUAL HAPPINESS... I have owned everything I have wanted to own in my life and no longer own most of it. What matters to me is my wife of almost 50 years and my two very cool adult children. It doesn't matter what is next, just enjoy it while you are in the midst of it. I am so proud of you for being so bold and courageous!! You have taught me much and I really do appreciate you. I hope not to lose you in the transition. Thank you Emma.

[@DeAnnaG_KissingFrogsMedia]

I personally wouldn’t get rid of the bus, but this is your life young lady so you live it how you see fit! Thank you! You for letting us follow you on some of your adventures and I hope you keep posting. If I had the money, I’d buy Birbie in a heartbeat. LOL it would save me the pain of building my own. Lol. Good luck to you whatever it is you chose to do! ❤ Blessings and be safe.

Can’t wait for your next adventure.

First came for the bus build, stayed for the builder. I'll be happy to follow your new videos

[@johnepperson8867]

It was a great life's experience for you and well worth it all. You'll see, down the road, how it's prepared you for unrelated ventures to make you a better person !!!

[@mikehaas543]

I will miss the bus, but I know you have gained a lot of skills in the process. I have seen you grow emotionally as you concorded problems and worked through them. I have enjoyed watching you go on your trips. It is your life, you have to do things that make you happy and feel fulfilled. Don't worry about what the naysayers say, go live your life and be happy. I can't wait to see what comes in the next chapter from you. :)

thank you!

I think it’s a great idea to sell the bus and move on! Best of luck with your new journey! Will be watching 😊

Life is a journey! We make many transitions in our lives, and it is how we handle those transitions that bring meaning and value, richness, and depth to our lives. Good luck and God's blessings on the next leg of your journey.

This is so relatable. I'm building a bus house to live in bc house prices are ridiculous, but I'm mostly planning on keeping it put. The process has been completely overwhelming at times, but I've grown so much in just a few months. Planning on building a house in a couple years too.

[@lindaking1921]

Emma. I love your videos. You need to do what makes you happy...change is good. I will be 72 next month and have done lots of things in my life. About every 5 yrs I make a major change. I am in the process of building a short bus and will start my nomadic life as soon as its done and I sell everything. I cant wait to see what you are going to do next. Dont worry about what others think. Be true to yourself. Be safe out there and God bless.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

that is awesome! good luck!

[@RebaKennedy]

Hi Emma, the view from what I assume is your new plot of land somewhere in Utah is just beautiful. The truck looks fun to drive. I like fat books, too - what were you reading, I wondered. As your virtual grandma, I want to give you a big virtual hug and say you are so brave and confident as you take on this "next (bigger, scarier) move" - HOORAY FOR YOU!!!!! I'm so proud and excited for you!!!! Of course, I am sad to see the pretty blue bus go to its new owners. And, on behalf of your mother, I hope you hang those curtains she made for Birbie before you turn over the keys 🙂 Will your tiny house (assuming this is the new Big Project) be named Birbie Two? Oh, and P.S. -- sure, sure there are lots of people on KZbin that are going from vans or buses or RVs to homesteading of some sort. I don't think of your channel as a "nomad" channel and I doubt I'll consider your next phase as a "homesteading" channel. I watch you because you inspire and encourage me to get out of my own comfort zone and move forward in life. Even if I don't get things perfect. Thank you.

[@EmmaBuildsBirbie]

Emma , do what you want and when you want. You are young enough now & you have your whole life ahead of you. It’s know-ones business why you decided . Keep doing and write a new chapter. Take care lovely young lady. 👍👍😊

Good luck in what ever your next adventure will be. Of course we will continue watching to see what that will be. It better be exciting, lol.

Emma, I am a little sad that you are selling the bus but I understand you have to do what is right for you. You were my inspiration for buying and starting a bus conversion. My end goal is quite a bit different though, I'm building an RV that is wheelchair accessible so I went with a forward lift and a dog nose so I can get my chair right up to the steering wheel. I won't be living in it just regular RV stuff and a mobile clubhouse for my Ham Radio buddies. I wish you the very best in whatever your next chapter is and hopefully you will bring us all along for the ride. 73 (best wishes) from Wes AE0OC

Emma you've got to do what's right for you. You took the time to buy your bus take it completely apart as a school bus and you turned it into a rolling home for yourself and the bus looks and it's totally cool looking as one of your viewers I'm here to tell you you've done a great job with the bus build. But if you feel it's time to move on and try something new then go for it. Just please keep making your Videos I for one really enjoy watching your adventures. Oh you sale the bus but keep the motorcycle the bus is good but I really like your little motorcycle. Nice truck as well. 👍👍👍 Hope to see more of your videos soon.
