This family of 6 lives and travels full time in their amazing DIY raised roof skoolie conversion. This build includes a ton of clever build and storage hacks that allows this family to live comfortably on the road. My favorite build hack was the lofted bed up front. I was also impressed with how they designed the children's area. If you are considering family travel on the road, this tour is for you!

Wait wait wait…living in it WHILE building it??? Insane! Lol! I love how dad just laughs outloud when the kids talk about the horrors of washing dishes etc. without proper water etc. Such a lovely, lovely family.❤️❤️❤️

[@dushy09]

Loved the kids room.Most bus life families give their children very little room and parents get a huge room. It's great that you give priority to your kids 😍

[@berabera9241]

i think too

[@elenitourlotoudesousabrito8971]

I liked the lay out. Especially to give the youngsters more space at the end instead of using it at a Master bedroom. Sleeping on opposite sides of the bus gives them more privacy. Very clever.

You got it! And no stepping over their toys to get to our bed!

I do admire you people, fighting out of a lifestyle you do not like anymore, freeing yourself from bills, overdrafts and house loans. You are heroes, and will be the backbone of society

[@patriciahand2223]

I like when your teen said if she needed help you parents where there. Touched my heart. The children are good at expressing themselves. Pure hearts. Blessings

[@lesamcclain4795]

I can’t pick a favorite part of your amazing home, but I can say that these parents have gone above and beyond making every possible space for the whole family. The kids space is so amazing and I love that they left the windows for not only natural lighting, but also an emergency exit for the kids just in case. I also really love how they made, not just a bed, but a beautiful bedroom for themselves with their books and some decor. With a door on the bunk room Mom and Dad can have some privacy, which is very important. As a retired teacher, Mom and Grandma, I thought I had a large library in my home, but the amount of books from end to end in this home is so impressive and it just made me smile. I can’t say enough about how amazing this home, this family and so much creative storage. I enjoyed every minute of this video and got some good ideas for my own small space. Thank for sharing.

[@katrinasheets2997]

Absolutely beautiful! This is probably the most beautiful bus I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot. I love the corrugated metal accents and the wood support on the loft and cabinets. Beautiful! I think it's wonderful that family is obviously a huge focus, and the kids are growing up surrounded by love, nature and adventure! ❤❤❤

[@djholliday4413]

I love the lifestyle of this family. I admire their parenting style. They emphasize the importance of reading, creativity and a very organic education. It is amazing. Their children are so intelligent and have a great sense of humor. They have built a beautiful home, and they make it work. I have 3 kids. My husband and I would absolutely love to live this life. The world has gotten away from family togetherness. It is great that dad is in IT, but his kids are plugged into real life, instead of being online. They get to be kids in a world where that is no longer common.

[@ericalampley480]

The decor isn't my personal taste but the whole aesthetic is beautifully done. Excellent build.

[@vickylittles6714]

I LOVE THAT THE SHOWER IS IN A SEPERATE ROOM FROM THE TOILET...FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN THAT... AND THE KIDS ROOM IS GENIUS... VERY WELL THOUGHT OUT

[@judyg9889]

This is my absolute favorite bus of all time. Lovely family, homeschooling, creativity, cozy unique handmade, loft bed & kid's room, variety of colors, great layout, woodstove, green door, kids, pets, and *BOOKS*!!! I recognize and love most of the titles. :)

[@truthseeker7322]

Finally a well thought out room for the kids. Good work parents love the style

Beautiful bus and family 💐 The best part to me was the honesty Of the teen daughter and the children being so happy 😊

[@whiterussian0889]

What a beautiful, GORGEOUS, sweet, lucky family. They are so so so lucky. I grew up traveling on vacations state to state in a conversion van with my family, camping, and that was a blast. I would imagine this is just an amazing way to live!!!!

[@blinkoo4ever]

Before this I always commented," this is my favourite,so far". But now I am gonna say," this is one of my favourites". Coz these crazy bus ideas never really seem to end.

"Define yourself by what you love" . What a functional family. So nice! Thank you for sharing your happiness.

One of the best inside set up I’ve seen and separation from parents and kids for privacy

[@sueregan2782]

The bus build does a beautiful job of delineating areas, so you are where you are and don’t feel like you are in a long tube.

[@nixhixx]

Beautiful Bus Build, love all the rustic touches. Love the wire-mesh door fronts and corrugated metal offsetting all the warm wood tones. The Farm theme could easily be overdone, but it doesn't feel that way at all. I expect, in a year or two, the kids are going to really want more space and privacy than they have, but that's no reason not to strike out on this adventure, NOW, while you can.

[@trerc1]

I Love their bus! All the attention to detail and all they were able to fit in is amazing! They have a beautiful family!! God Bless them in their journey!🙏

This bus sorry home is adorable. This family have put a lot of thought into the layout and also the decor. This is truly unique. It's beautiful it really is and I gotta say that I have fallen in love with it ❤️😍. Mum and Dad have given their children their own private space while they have the loft most bus builds I have seen the parents have taken their own private master retreat while this mum and dad they have given that part of the build to their kids! Hats off 🎩👏to this mum and dad putting their kids needs above their own 👏👏. This whole bus home is fantastic and has been well thought out also unique to this family as every person who lives on the bus has had their thoughts, details and design input put into their home. Again family a really, truly, unique and beautiful home you have here and thank you for allowing us viewer's a tour 🏡🙏❤️💖. This is a bus home with a huge, great and beautiful difference. May you all have many fun filled adventure's in your bus home. Safe travels again thank you. 🏡❤️🚍💖🚌💕🤗💕 Lisa UK

[@toddaron]

Your decor is perhaps the best I've ever seen. Your process worked so well, not only for you, but to provide balance from these bougie/ohhhhhh-too tidy rigs that make no sense to me. Looking lived-in rocks and rocks hard. Stealing: - your cupboard wires - Love what you did w/ teh stove; saw one from UK that I like better but your setup is a good lesson - the corrugated works SOOOO very well, balanced with the wood. WOW. Nicely done, well played. - sticks!!! - the, in general, homey feel of your place. It's farm.. or outback, it all makes sense and fits; you've wonderfully put together these objects on the cusp of being disparate. Such a good video! Thanks for sharing!
