Student builds an adventure CAMPER bus and tiny home (FULL TOUR)

[@ceecee3488]

I absolutely love your bus. Its different than all those fancy new vans. I like the shape, the windows, the paint job.....I love it all! And I think you are very wise to have a toilet, even if you think you will only use it for emergencies.......and the shower....well done! Its just simply perfect. I could drive away with it and not change a thing! Safe travels my dear......and have loads of fun!

[@loicleray]

I agree! The old bus has character. 😀

[@totalcontrol4205]

I was a full-time carer to my father for nearly 20 years and since he passed away, I have been taking care of mum who has leukemia. I've never really had time to take care of myself. This is something I would really love to do after mum goes, to give myself a chance to heal from the trauma and get healthy again. I don't know if I will have the courage, but seeing other females travelling alone, is encouraging. Best of luck to you. 🥂

[@loicleray]

Sorry to hear of you loss. I hope that you take to the road and heal whilst travelling. Stay strong.

Great video Rhiannon.The bus looks like a cosy home. I converted several vans in my life (I am 79) and know how much planning goes into the initial stages. Good to see an Aussie conversion.

Gorgeous home Riannnon 👍💕

[@firie01]

Great work,,,,very smart and works. If you head north direct sun heat will be a challenge for you but sure you will over come it. Just an idea install rope rack rail on drivers side so you have the opportunity to add shade sail to it. Having solar that’s portable to will help bc you will pack under trees when you can. G8 vid with simple ideas and professional finish, well done.

MORE AUSSIE VANS PLEASE. THANKS FOR POSTING. GREAT JOB. I WATCH ALL THE AMERICAN VAN SHOWS, SO ITS GOOD TO SEE AN AUSSIE.

[@feistyburrito1]

Thank you for sharing. Well done Rhiannon! What an inspiration you are 🎉

[@loicleray]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lizsteeds6697]

What an amazingly well designed and tastefully finished bus you have sister. Absolutely love it. Not only have you saved weight with the cut-outs in your bed base but you have totally avoided incubating the dreaded black mould in and under your mattress as they also function to allow air to circulate and evaporate the bodily moisture we produce at night when we sleep. (Yep ... it's not just sweaty sex that dampens the sheets) So many earnest bus/van life newbies totally overlook the inevitable mould proliferation problem by installing solid bed bases ... and time and time again I see a lack of commonsense typically manifesting in failing to realise what a big issue mould will become ... sigh. You have, by default, already got that sussed. The extra space your bus affords compared to say, a Mercedes Sprinter, is incredible. It is a perfect layout In My Humble Opinion ... what a fabulous job you and your family have accomplished. Nice to see what can be achieved with the 'runty-in-comparison to US Schoolie bus' conversions here in the antipodes ... your Mintie is delish.

[@loicleray]

Heya Liz, it's a pretty cool build indeed! Thanks for watching and commenting 😀

You and your van, are adorable. Did you design it? I can not beam to see things before they are done, or done wrong. Thank you for sharing, and showing your beautiful home..

[@jennya2439]

So cool! It’s great to see a video about bus life here in Aus. You mentioned that you don’t stay in caravan parks very much so I wondered where you stay as watching the U.S. van life videos I always wonder how it would translate to travelling around Aus and where you could legally stay for free?

[@yourrnamee1280]

aside from roadside places and reserves where you can stay for free, usually time limited and best if you are self contained, you can stay on people's land..however, there are alot of places you can stay that still cost. Van parks are just one place where you will have to pay to stay.

[@Kelly-gn7vr]

I spent 28 years in the military and I watch these videos and they make me want something like that RV, but the problem is it's like buying a house everybody's in their twenties and has great credit or family builts it I have no desire for one of the new RVs that look like something Elvis might drive. What I wouldn't do for something like this, Solid there is so much of the United States I haven't seen especially with the virus going on you could really self isolate

Hey Rhiannon, Great build. Love the old civilians, they don’t get as much credit as Coasters or Rosas. I have a quick question, do you know how much heavier Mintie is ? And if it impacts your handling or fuel economy much ? Is there lightweight materials you used ? Cheers Hope ur travels are still epic. Chris 👍 🚎

Oh yeah, baby! You got the groove. Very nice and cozy. Man...I love this bus. Everything is so lovely inside. I don't mind to own one like this. I love the color inside. Very organized too. Love the kitchen by the window. That's amazing! You got everything inside. I prefer living in a bus than an apartment or a house. Wish you the best luck whatever you go on the trip. Smart purchase for $3,000! You got everything you need there. Everything is simple and basic. I can't wait for my van life, but yours is BIGGER! Thumb up! She is very beautiful too and I love her personality. Single? Ha. Just joking.
