  • 3 years ago, Luke and I bought 100 aches of land in Tasmania. We recently bought a bus tiny home to live on our land and move out of Sydney!
    In this video, I talk through the loose plans for the channel, and our living situation.
    I also take you on a tour of our future home.

    Hi guys the Volvo looks great a 7 speed comfort shift and you have a black tank for the masseraer toilet you will need to leave the roof hatches on for air flow if moving the air conditioners as the bus gets hot inside with only 2opening windows and maybe fit a split system A/C and a diesel heater I now have a 5th wheeler after 3 busses I run mostly victron gear with 1130 watts of solar 600 amps of lithium battery a 2000 watt victron inverter and I took out the 3way fridge and put in a LG inverter 240 volt fridge which is running 24/7 and a DCtoDC charger as I’m driving to keep batteries topped up and I don’t plug into mains power as the solar is enough also inverter microwave good luck with the motorhome

      Very nice - where are you based? We’ve bought 3.5kw of solar panels, as Tasmanian winters will give pretty poor output. A diesel heater is a must - thats on the cards!
      We have been talking about changing to a 240v fridge; it might struggle to fit through the door though. Will need to measure carefully before committing.

    I really really envy you and I wish you all the best for your episode in life. Something like this has always been my dream, but it never happened. Perhaps look into keeping alpakas - the provide lovely (and very expensive) wool. Would be fun to spin your own yarn to knit and crochet.
    And the size downgrade... well, I'd rather have a very large garden and a tiny house, than the other way round. Being in Australia - wouldn't it be possible to build a small "shed" to use as a workspace? Shouldn't get too cold most of the year.

      I have thought that it would be fun to have sheep/alpacas and weave my own yarn! But i think that will be a fair way into the future. Sheep in particular are high maintenance animals that we don’t have any experience with.
      Me too! We are tired of living on top of our neighbours here. We will be building a large shed and i’ll use the office space of as my studio. ☺️
