VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Cora and Jose have a really unique dream and vision for their bus. They not only completely built out a Skoolie, they built it out with artists in mind. They are artists themselves and have a passion for sharing that love with others. They created a space where musicians, writers, photographers and multi-media artists can come and stay with them on their bus for periods of time, participating in the joys of traveling in the bus while doing what they love and making art. The music/art studio in the back is incredible and completely sound proof. They thought every single aspect of this build through and it shows. Amazing job you two and we can't wait to see what you continue to create in a tiny space!

Making money on the road is always a huge concern for people. This couple built a studio in their skoolie conversion to help with that issue! Thanks for watching!

AMAZING & PRACTICAL use of space.I hope they have security cameras all around though.

Cora and Jose are incredible people! I love their drive, energy, motivation, and their willingness to spread positivity through The Arts. I met them at one of their first stops around Greenville S.C. I took my kids so they could see this amazing bus that they live on and also meet both of them. It was the best field trip we have taken by far! I’m so happy they are doing what they love.

Having that sturdy stationary desk seems like such a necessity. Perfect for a crafter, writer, musician. it's a hobby/work station perfect for a creative. my boyfriend has always wanted a murphy bed- I gotta show him this!!!

[@lass-inangeles7564]

What an artistic space with such lovely complementing colors. Interior space looks huge! 5:56 - I would love to know where you got those rotary hinges from? How are they holding up? With regard to your little potted garden, the dashboard may offer more light. You may need a food tray and some magnets. I also saw this van with a pallet shelving for plants on back! No problem with light outside. The bus exterior is lovely! So nice to see colors everywhere and not white, beige, black and neutral shades. This is so exciting and breath of fresh air. You both make a lovely couple, and your talents are boundless. Music, visual arts, travel, blogging, creative jobs, bus repairs and conversion, wow!! Very impressive. Keep up the great work, this tour was wonderful! Chris, you are clearly one of the best videographers on KZbin. Your low key presence and music, the great editing, clear visuals and audio, attention to details, intro of locale, wrap up with a once over the whole van, and respect for the folks you interview, make you top of your profession. I enjoy your work and appreciate the wonderful content you bring us. Its a soothing, immersive experience each time. Thank you, and namaste!

[@ArtWeThereYet]

Hi! Thank you SO much for these beautiful words! So the hinges - they are swivel chair hinges that we got on Amazon, I believe (I can send the link if you like). They cost a grand total of $15 each. Much better than the $250 they charge you for a murphy bed kit! It's so great what you said about the plants, because I actually JUST put them out on the sill for their daily 'sunning'! 😀. They always look so happy all lined up like that. Jose was just saying how he wants to take a photograph of them like that to post on instagram, because it just invokes a feeling of happy calm 😊❤️ Sending abrazos from Nevada!

[@lisathompson5742]

What a clever use of space! Art is everywhere throughout this home. Lots of colours and everything blends beautifully together 💖💖. It's stunning.

[@ArtWeThereYet]

Thank you, Tonia ❤️. This really means a lot. Yes, we really do feel if you wait till everything is 'perfect' to make steps, then you'll never get a-going!

Gorgeous couple, gorgeous bus. I totally agree with the principle of working on the frame and shell of the bus first. That's like the foundation of every build. And I understand the need for soundproofing the studio/bedroom, seeing that it is used for recording. Still I think it's a bit unfortunate that there are no windows there.

[@ArtWeThereYet]

Absolutely. If the shell is not done well, you risk damage to everything you put inside. Which represents time and money!

Adorable and is a good idea to save money in Hotels. To pay 100 to 300 dollars per night is very expensive. Many people do not have money to take a vacation, to build a traveling space is a great creative activity.
