It’s such a beautiful home. Such a great layout. I absolutely love y’all’s bus. Happy and safe travels to you all.
Carol Jackson thank you for the encouragement!
Wait. If they are doing homeschooling in a bus, doesn't that just convert it back to a school bus?
Lol.... True... But it is a home schooling bus... Lol...
Hahahaah.. that's why it's called a skoolie.. 😆😆
🚌💻📝📅📓📚😂😂 👌
If a kid is homeschooled in a house, does that convert the house into a school?
@@sarahkate3920 yes, hence "homeschool".
Amazing build. Awesome little salon.
Thank you!
Hello Ramona how are you doing!!
I love your skoolie!!! Awesome conversion!
Thank you!
Loved it!! Very inspiring ! Our kids are grown and I think its time to downsize and travel.
Focal point: This couple built what works for their family. Kids grow up fast. So does adults grow older. Planning ahead shouldn’t be too much of a problem; adjustments can always be made to build what works for the entire family. I’m so proud of both this couple. Thank you for sharing your remarkable homestead. God’s Love, Blessings and Covering To You All In Christ Jesus name amen 🙏🏻
Gorgeous conversion!
I couldn't live in crowded, noisy RV parks and parking lots tho.
If I converted one it would stay put to be used as my home on my country acreage.
Best of both worlds!
Beautiful build guys
I think it's amazing and beautiful !!! But how do you pay for groceries etc ? where do you park it? What happens when the kids get much older?
Great
Thanks
what brand is the wood stove please?
Did you buy that from Harlows?
How can she run a saloon with limited water and what if customers want to use the restroom?
We had road service and parcel bus 30ft 5ltr bedford
The salon is amazing. How ingenious. Thank you for sharing.
Who else keeps getting these types of videos in their recommended after the cute girl with curly hair and her pet snake?
Diamond MSPShine me lol
Me
That happened to me too
You spoke to my soul just now
Diamond MSPShine yeah same...oh little Alfredo😂😂😂
Highly recommend stowing everything you have in the belly compartments in air-tight containers to prevent road dust, mildew, mold, and bugs from getting into your things. Additionally, it will prevent your tools from rusting. Throwing in packets of DampRid will definitely help inside the containers.
Or buy the crystal cat litter that is cheaper and the same thing

Idk. I feel like the salon is taking up a ton of space for 1 client a week. I understand it was hard for her to let her business go, but it seems that space could be much better used for the kids or something. Everything is beautiful tho. I just feel like that space could have been put to better use for the entire family.
I loved this video so much when I saw it a month ago that I watched it again. Only this time, I'm appalled by the negativity of the more recent comments. Condemning Joanie for her "selfish" attitude or bemoaning the bed/bathtub set up?!?!? WOW!!! How many mom's do you know who cook from scratch (3 meals/day) or grinds her own flour? She's incredible!!! Joanie gave up a business that she loved but 'negotiated' the salon which Adam lovingly provided. This is an incredible couple who love their children enough to provide an exceptional, adventuresome life for their little ones. Will it be forever that they live this lifestyle? Perhaps not; but for now it is working brilliantly for them and who are we/you to cast aspersions on their choices let alone act like they're not providing properly for their children. Enough!!!
Margie Peary Thank you for understanding completely where our hearts are at in this! Our entire family has become closer and grown as a strong unit. The kids lack nothing and we as parents are with them every day.
Blessings to you!
Margie Peary, I agree with you. I too, shame this Joanie woman. The nerve of her to even think she has the rite to judge. This family has a beautiful home that many family's can only dream of. They are also showing their children the world while bonding with them. They are truly extraordinary parents. God bless
Margie Peary PPO
@@adamjoanieadventures You are a beautiful family and your children are lucky to have parents who love them so much that they each have their own special little cubical designed just for them AND parents who are with them everyday giving them special attention and hands on experiences!!. How lucky to have a mother that doesn't throw the typical "junk" food at their kids, but prepares wholesome, healthy organic food each day. You have provided a beautiful loving home perfectly designed to fit everyone's needs. Keep up the good work and enjoy new adventures everyday that most families will NEVER get to experience!!! :)
Evalene Campbell-Best thank you for sharing encouragement!
I think it’s amazing that you found the space for a business too... everyone complaining about the kids and space... there’s a big wide world for them to play! What a great adventure life for them right now!
Mandie Lou you have the right idea! Our kids are perfectly content and so are we.
Agreeeeee!
Exactly what I was thinking I’ve watched so many of these bus and van tours I’ve not seen a single family make anymore room for their kids than this family
Mandie Lou -YUP! The kids will be just fine. 🥰
Rite! She stated that this isn't permanent.
May GOD BE WITH YOU GUYS IN THE TRAVELS.. ADMIRE WHAT YOUR DOIN..LORD BLESS YOUR FAMILY..MIDEWEST
I think I would have did away with the salon so my kids would have more space.. beautiful design though
trinabelle if the kids wanna eat 😄 we shall work!
Exactly what I was thinking . You can still have a salon but don’t use so much space . The kids need more than a little bunk , especially making one of them into a bath. I remember being young and loving my little, personal space .
Alicia Janique I doubt a client a week is major bank for eating the kids. That room could have been the kids space
The Lorax I have a makeup and skincare company I ship from the bus and do clients- it’s amazing and covers all of our bills ❤️plus we are debt free!
@@adamjoanieadventures Ignore what the naysayers think. You do you and live your family dream, no need to defend your position when you know why you do the things you do for your family. many or the spiteful commenters are just jealous or you and your family and thriving business. Blessings to you and family!
Everyone complaining about the poor kid sleeping on top of the tub made it sound incredibly uncomfortable. It’s the same bed as the others! And such a great use of limited space.
Heather Czigan you got the vision-yes! He requested that bunk and loves it!
Heather I agree. Very good use of space
I agree. They use the tub once a day and he gets to sleep at night.
Right! I don't get the people complaing about the bed/tub space. It's brilliant!
I think if anything it’s more annoying to the parents than the kid their the ones who have to move the bed and put it back and do all the actual labor and if it bothers him that much he could bunk with his other siblings.
Its nice but the kids are going to need privacy when they get older
I really do feel, this is a trend for some ppl and a way of life for others. As for me. Its survival or be homeless. 😥🌺
It doesn't have to be trend nor survival. Why can't it just be for the enjoyment of traveling and being debt free. I myself actually want to downsize and live this way aswell for the sake of seeing the world and nothing else. Not for being homeless nor because it's a trend. I just love to travel and believe that this is the most efficient and economical way of doing so for the income I have. I'm not broke but I don't have loads of money to travel. So, this gives me the opportunity to live and travel on the income I do have.
@@rosaramos5889 it can be all the above actually. I wish you happy travels
Hopefully the children grow accustomed to this lifestyle their parents created, and they won’t need more privacy than what they already have. This might just be a thing for now, and they go back to a regular house later on. They might get tired of the cramped feeling as the kids grow older.
Anika Maynard that’s wut the blinds are for lmao
I don't get why everyone is so concerned about the kids, it looks like most of you look at this with your adult mind instead of putting yourself in the shoes of a child. Children don't care about having a queen size bed or a big room.
Most children that are properly taken of by their parents (= not a child ignored by their parents who stay indoors all day on a tablet or computer) enjoy being outside more than being inside. I'm the most homebuddy person ever, I spend my days in my bed doing nothing at all, but when I was a child I was ALWAYS playing in the garden, unless it was too rainy and in that case I baked cakes with my mother or played board games.
I promise you that these children are not any different. They have a huge playground to play outside, and it changes every day! They're never going to get bored playing outside, they're probably bored when they are inside. And they have some games in the bus and their own space + a living room where they can play. That's more than enough for them. By the time they get older to need privacy they may not be on the road anymore, or their parents will find another solution
I thought this was gonna be a quick video tour, I start watching and then I'm like, this is taking a while, I look and notice I'm 25 minutes into a 43 min long video! Lol
Great video. Fun tour.
Your Own Empire it welcomes you in✅
@@adamjoanieadventures yes indeed. I lost track of time, lol
Lol...same here... Just realised its 43 minutes!
Your hubby is a great man. God bless him
Lucky Lucky he is!
🤨 What happens when your children get older and space becomes limited 🤔
Alexis Rose that’s exactly what I thought
Salon needs to go, it's not necessary alot of places you can rent out a chair at a salon, she should do that perfect for travelling different places too..it's bigger than the kids room, must be a pain to bath too..
Alexis Rose the baby bed was the bathtub that needs to be fixed uhuh
Space is already limited. Idk it sounds nice but I just don’t know 😔🙇🏽♀️
I think of this as a tour bus.
Wow wow wow I am just floored. Soooo many brilliant ideas. Just incredible. You guys are the best and the most impressive build I have seen so far. So much talent.
Pamela Molina It was a labor of love- thank you 😊
It was and it shows.
By far the best I've seen. Home, business and vehicle, genius.
Ohhhhhhhh I almost forgot, it's also very aesthetically pleasing.
So once again lol, great job God bless and happy travels
P.S.
I just wish I could've came along 😂😂😂😂😂😂. Really though, enjoy it all and do it all while you can! GBAHT
Rosa Ramos Thank you so much!
If you’re living in a bus you shouldn’t really need a bath like come on, make that kid a proper bed
Grace Duan what is a proper bed?
Not a bathtub?
I agree!
now in my 80s we did the same with 4 children 70s and 80s Still the topic of our conversation God Bless you both and your family All my sons and daughter have benefited from our travels
I love your bus!!! It’s amazing!! Someday I want to be able to do this with my husband. Awesome salon. Yes it’s a good idea you keep up your career while traveling so when the time comes you have it available for future income. I see a lot of negative comments and it’s their dream and they went for it. Anyone else wanna have guts to just pick up and go. It’s scary but they are soo g it together 👏👏
Evelyn Fernandez Thank you! I gave up my beautiful historic salon I had for 13 years before this and now my husband gets to travel- our kids get amazing adventures and I still get to serve clients and store all my inventory for my makeup and skincare business!
Joanie....I know several people who travel like ya'll do n stop to work at national parks and things, I love your bus and that you have your work with you....Safe travels from Oklahoma
@@adamjoanieadventures when you travel for a longer period of time you will meet many of the same family over and over again. I would imagine it’s a small community . Other full time travelers and home schoolers. They will be your clientele because they will know you! It’s your dream live it as you choose! Don’t listen to naysayers who are most likely sitting on their couches at home telling you what do … good luck 🍀
Hey can you share more info on you blender, grinder thingy....please!
AND....
You salon is amazing and beautifully designed! You guys used every inch of your bus to its best! Love every step of the build.
Lorraine Hunt we appreciate that! It’s called an Electrolux mixer! Go to Bread bakers website.
I’d just get rid of the salon so the kids would have more space 🤦🏾♀️ you really mixed the tub with a bed how is this efficient for growing children this isn’t very good parenting ..
That’s what I’m saying
That was my thoughts as well.
@@ballroomleaf9020 No matter what...you (and me) need our cut or tinted. Don't want to scare the bears. I actually think she has a wonderful idea!
This isn't a lifetime commitment and it works for their family that's what counts. Please don't accuse them of not using good parenting skills.
It's great parenting, actually. I love the bath/bed thing. There's more to life than having a big fancy bathroom or house..... They are showing their kids the world in real time. How is that not fantastic parenting...I don't get it...
Wouldn’t it have made more sense to get rid of the salon & make more room for your children instead of having one of them sleep on a bathtub ?
jade marie nope- this provides income so we can live this lifestyle!
@@adamjoanieadventures she mentioned she only gets 1 client every week or couple weeks
As far as the salon goes she could have washed hair in the kitchen sink and used a folding chair to style. The front of the bus is beautiful but the back wasn't well thought out.
The whole purpose of downsizing is to be free to explore the outdoors, all the negative comments about the salon space is very unnecessary.
@@tasleyanne4046 kitchen sink??? Gross. 🤢
Oh my gosh. I've driven through Glacier National Park ("Going-to-the-Sun Road" ) a few times in a small car and was white knuckling it. I cannot even fathom some of those cliff roads in that bus!!!! I'm shocked. This guy must be the most calm driver on the planet.
Fantastic, Impressive minimal living. Love how well you used Sq Ft throughout and the style. Mobile salon is genius🔥 Convenient for minimalist on road. I admire she didn't bury her passion.
Ladii Mysteek D THANK YOU!❤️
You both should be proud of your home and the ability to be free to move your home about.
The 1st thing I noticed was your radiant love for each other, your accommodation for each other's needs and the sacrifice that can only come from true love.
For what it's worth, the bus is a masterpiece and your lives are truly magical. 😍
FYJAH home that was so beautiful- we should make your words into a plaque!
That mobile salon is ingenious. The things people put in their bus conversion are top notch amazing.
You2Nosey thank you!!
@@adamjoanieadventures I agree that you've done a great job fitting the salon in but am wondering if you're staying anywhere long enough to drum up regular clientele as people have to trust their hairdressers?
So if you continue to only have 1 or 2 clients per week would you consider removing the non-storage parts to give the space back to the 'home' (i.e. as potential space for a washer-drier/bigger bathroom/kids closet)?
As an alternative could you maintain your licence working as a 'mobile' hairdresser going to people's homes in your car? You could also take your products for planned parties (like the Avon ladies used to)? 😊
@@olbird7647 Exactly. Clientele & repeat customers is a Hair dressers bread & butter.
So beautiful!! Only thing is with three growing kids they’re going to need their personal space . Too bad the salon wasn’t more room for the kids especially making one of the boys bunks into a bath tub :( but for a couple with NO kids .. this is AMAZING
Alicia Janique the kids love it!
Space....... how about they enjoy the benefits of all being in a loving space where they all actually interact with one another instead of isolating themselves in " their space"
The fact that you fit your salon business into a bus where you live with your family is unbelievable.😍 Ridiculously amazing!! THIS just shows that no matter what goals you guys have you guys will accomplish it because that takes a lot of determination👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Who start watching those types of videos after watching the girl with her snake pet?
i think its safe to say, EVERYONE!
Who are we talking about?

I didn't see it. But I don't like snakes anyway.😖
U 2 have a great bus, great ideas for making fu
nctional everything! I really do appreciate the fact that u, lady, have that saloon! Great idea of making a bit of money on the road, for making happy some lady on the road! And the tube which transphorms in a bed, its great! I think One thing: the negative comments come because of envy. Dont worry, go on with love and faith in God! Everything will be alright! Be blessed!
HristosIisusEdomnul I think you are right!!!
I also like it
41:42 I know what you mean 'bout still feeling your hand vibrate, sister! I too am a cosmetologist, since 1980, graduating from high school vo-tech cosmetlogy class with very little training in clipper cutting hair JUST WHEN THE TREND WAS HOT. Not having any money for advanced training, I took a job in a Barbershop to learn. It was also licensed for cosmetology because the young daughter had chosen Beauty School instead, working 1-2 days a week, her interest not being men's grooming, instead, total immersion in college life.
The owner,in her late 70's, wanted to "get modern", She had hired a young Barber with couple years experience the old man was retiring and stayed long enough to give me OJT in barbering and clipper skills, he was a licensed barber-stylist, complete with straight razor shaving and the "new layering techniques". So then the hot new wild futuristic 80's modern styling was pretty much left to me as the other old Barber was a female and having her a baby at 55 yrs.
Giving a 3 or 4" tall flat top it goes from a 1" Crown to a spillover Bang in the front ala Flock of Seagulls or fully standing is not an easy thing, but I learned old ways and new products workt hand in hand. I became the hottest Barber in town with the reputation of giving the "flattest top in town". I was vibrating out a flat top/spillover bang style every 15 minutes for10 yrs with those industrial old tyme barrel Oster electric barber shears (looked like some sheep shears). Not the nice little neck trim clippers or the larger type for in home barbering with the lenth guides that clamp on, no, this was old tyme, if you wanted a different size, you flipped the head up and put another size of $30 set of blades onto it. I did 3 or 4 clients and our average and that was an 8 hour day or 9 or 10 or... until we stopped accepting clients at regular closing hour of the shop and I finished the last that came in at 7 at 10pm. I think my hands would still vibrate for 10 years after I stopped doing that and I heard the constant phone ringing! When wide awake. I would also dream it and I would wake up and realize that I was no longer a Barber, and the phone was NOT ringing.
When I had moved from the Barbershop to run my own booth in a larger salon, I still carried most of my clipper clients with me -the truth is, they found me...they were all connected by word of mouth and style advertisement, and i had begun clipper cuts on women for the 90's...so, I was still buzzin' in the 90's and could not get away from it until I retired in the 2K's! And if you're wondering how this all relates to your sander ... I used to run an orbital sander at my fiance's garage sometimes, on Sundays to help him catch up. I much prefer the random orbital action of a 2 handed sander/buffer than that one-handed old barrel-shaped barber clipper!
Karen Mullen Ill remember never to use one of those old Clippers 🤣
Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! One of the most beautiful builds I've ever seen. Its so homey I could move in here and be happy forever! Hope you two are happy in here forever too!
Rebecca Pettifer that is so kind!
Wow, the most beautiful build out ever! Such an amazing bus!!
This. Is. Amazing!! I'm living in our trailer while we build an addition- we have six kids. Wish I could convince my hubs to cancel the addition and do this 😍 I've been obsessed with these videos and this bus is my favourite so far!
daughter thank you!
Me too!
Super impressive build!!! It has such a comfy home feel to it which is hard to get.
Mechanic Steve Yes, when we first decidedto get a bus we weren’t sure how it was going to end up looking like a home!
Wow this home is in my top 5 of the most beautiful custom built skoolies.... They did an amazing job bringing so many different elements into the home even the little beauty shop are for her business was a well laid out plan...
Urine into the gray water? I'm really surprised that hasn't set off any bells or whistles where they dump their water. And dumping the sewage into the regular trash?
It's pretty common
You guys did a beautiful job! What a neat schoolie! Wow fantastic use of space!!
Karen Warren thank you!
If you guys do ever decide to sell that bus, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. My favorite color, I'm also a hairstylist, with a strong attachment to clothes, and I want to get into a tiny home. This is my dream. I'm so glad you guys made it all work! It let's me know that I could make it work too.
I love it . I can't believe I'm saying it will be too much space for just me...lol
very nice, the real question. how much are you guys saving?
Iris Lizarraga we ran a brick and mortar business before this with employees so we save A LOT 😊
@@adamjoanieadventures but what's your income? the salon and essential oils? no judegement. Just curious
We will be doing a video at some point on our UA-cam channel about how we earn income 😀. Adam/Joanie Adventures.
jeremiah sams sales are lucrative!
Jeremiah Sams
I know people that make more money from their part time jobs than some people make in two weeks. Aside the fact, how can you put a price on happiness, travel, and financial freedom? Do you not see their home is fully paid for? Do you pay rent or do you down rite own your home? Do you have the time to make home made bread or do you even cook? Home schooled children don't learn half the nasty things regular children learn in school nor do they suffer bullying. Have you even noticed how many kids commit suicide for being bullied or even drop out of school due to getting bullied. I'm guessing you live in a huge glass mansion that's fully paid for and have the bank leaning sideways from all the money you've saved.
🤨🤔😠🙈🙉🙊🤦🏻♀️💁🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️💪
Thank you for thinking of your kids. One family put their son in a dog bed, no kidding.
I know which video you are talking about 😂 I'd prefer a tub that's for sure!!! I love this schoolie 😍
Wow a dog bed. ?? That's really sad...
In this video I'm sure it was the Father who thought of the kids!!!
It's VERY hodgepodge & BUSY. Poor layout & they invested in weird stuff, didn't splurge on the most important things. How can the mom justify the Sq ft she takes from her kids when she only services someone maybe once a week? Thats a Hobby not a job. NOT even a shower, her kids don't even have a toy box. Then her huge bed- TAKES UP ANOTHER 7 FEET. Her kids clothes in a tiny bench, Meanwhile she has wrap around cabinets for all hers. I hope she watched this video and seen how she comes off. This dad needs to start putting his foot down. These poor kids, I wish them all the luck. She needs MORE WE & LESS ME.
The wife was hard to listen to... 😖😬
Omg same. You could tell she has some resentment towards her husband for wanting to follow his dream too. Look at his face at the end of the video when she starts advertising her business.
Beautiful couple, full of ideas and full of faith. Thank you for sharing.
We are blessed to be sharing. Thank you for taking the time to watch!
Instead of living in a bus couldn’t they have gotten a one bed room house fully paid off for the price of things they had to build and fix the bus?
MsShy50 no a one bedroom here would be WAY more. The whole idea is traveling and debt free living!
@@adamjoanieadventures exactly
1 bedroom with all those ppl where would everyone sleep?...
18:39 whatcha guys do with all that butter...?
To Which End Drops We like a lot a good healthy fats in our diet :-) fat burns fat.
People complaining about kids and space . Let these people live their best life. Most of y'all probably don't even interact with your kids as much as your complaining.
Gigi Beta preach!
Looks great but I feel bad for your son who has loofahs and shampoo hanging over his head at night
Morgan Thomas poor little guy is forever damaged because of shampoo above his head.
@@adamjoanieadventures haha lol I hope not
@@morganthomas4011 😂😂😂
So many high maintenance people with negative comments.
This family is free from the rat race.
Comments like these are the only thing hurting these kids. I'm sure they actually think it's cool to have a double duty bed. Who can say they have a bed that turns into a tub? Or say they've traveled to all sorts of places. Or that their family is very close and share homemade meals everyday. Get a life and go bash wife beaters, killers, thieves and people that deserve to be called out. Not this happy family that is only sharing their happiness and accomplishments with us.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, I'm not shocked by the opinions of those whom may have only seen a snippet of your life, I feel you have thought of everything to keep your family going financially while on the road, as far as the children are concerned, I've seen kids live on worse conditions, having the eldest son sleep on a mattress above the tub is absolutely okay in my opinion, the fact is, they are doing this for themselves, so our opinions are just that. I happen am very happy them, they've continued with the childrens schooling and giving them an adventure of a life time all while maintaining a happy family. Great job and God bless on your next adventure ride
Nancy Rodriguez Thank you-blessings back!
Look like they spent as much on their build as buying a small house.
Lulu & Scooter Adventures we did it debt free on a narrow budget! 😁
Aside the fact that you can't pick up your regular house and travel. Idk what part of " traveling the country " certain people don't understand. Ughhhhhhhhhh
The adventures you guys will have in this schoolie are priceless.
God bless
Rosa Ramos Yes, you understand exactly what you’re doing!
Right? I fully understood your comment and the fact that it was ONLY comparing the PRICE of a home vs. a schoolie. (Nothing to do with traveling). I'm guessing after selling so much land and other "things", the budget was far greater than most other schoolies... I only wish that when ppl post these public videos, there may be positive and negative comments and there will be questions... I would think one would welcome questions, even if they aren't on accord with the way the masses think. But to each his or her own, I gather.
This Bus was Amazing I think it would be so neat to get my hair done in the 🚌 this is awesome 👏🏻 one of the best buses I’ve Seen yet I just got a camper to redo & I don’t know the first thing 😬 but I Thanks 🙏🏼 for some ideas!
My only issue with doing such an extensive build is mechanical problems with an old bus. They didn’t go into much except for tire wear, and his solution to turn the wheel around doesn’t really solve the core problem causing that. I suppose they can just park it in a trailer park if it gets too costly to maintain for travel.
flyingcat2054 These can go up to 800,000 miles, but if it does come down to that we will just use it as an Airbnb.
Seems a little critical in last remarks. I loved watching their story and how they are living their dreams. I'm Marilyn from NYS. (I don't know how to change my initial to a name on my comments.) It's great that you had the imagination/talent/skills to do all the work. What I like best is that you reply to most comments! Happy Trails to you all!
This is brilliant, lovely and nice. Loves how everything works together. Best of luck in your adventure
Babatunde Abiola Zulikha Thank you!
Maybe use some magnetic strips to hold spices, spoons, knives?
That might give extra storage.
We do use a magnetic strip to hold our knives.
No thank you....I'll work my ass off, and stay in my home, with a nice yard, and SPACE!
You guys did a beautiful job, it is truly a home. I especially love the white washed wood and the teal color for the outside. Your bedroom looks so cozy! I bet the kids love their bunks. Safe travels🚍 guys❤️
Daphne Picard we appreciate that!
I wanted to RV around the country. Had the means to do it, even priced up some coach like RV's and made notes. About what to fit for convenience. I'm a budding photographer so I was going to document everything. But down side, wife didn't want to do it, and she has too much stuff. Too far from the kids...adult kids 35ish... so I'm stuck in a town...great!
Maybe she would go for once-in-a-while weekend camping?
😪
You guys are awesome! Love your build...god bless! I am looking at building a school I’d when i retire from the military, travel around and visit some of my mates.
The front door is so cute and the tub under the bed is so smart 👍🏼
Wow! I found this video by accident and I couldn't stop watching it . You guys did an amazing job to make this bus a home. I love all the work you did in making it a cozy, comfy home for your family.I'm looking forward to following you on UA-cam.
kskc1234 Thank you so much!
Good job on the conversion guys but as far as it being a fail safe engine... Lololol you would have to get a schoolie from japan because american engines WILL fail and that's just the way it is
From the research that we did, the engine we chose was the best available. I do agree there is no such thing as an engine that wont break down.
Thank for sharing. ..salon on wheel is nice . .. usually thier photographer. ..that something unusual. ..
thank you!
Great layout, this bus looks really wide inside. Lots of room 😀
Thank you for the kind comment . I think the wide-angle lens helps . LOL.
Beautiful bus and a beautiful couple! 👍
MAE HAY thank you!
Hello Mae how are you doing!!
Poop trash at a gas station, and you don't have grey water you have black water. Animals.
I am so glad that you brought attention to the new lighting bothering your wife. People think I am crazy when I tell them that it gives me headaches because of the flicker.
I've been a hairdresser, so I know how hard it would be to figure out that setup. Not sure how it would work as you travel through different states. They did a great job. Love the toilet choice.. I'm an old girl, but am willing to make do. I'd do whatever it took to get the door to face the other way, though. Other than that, love it all. Thanks for bringing us this great home and family.
small footprint thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Nice if you want to adventure yourself into a gypsy lifestyle , but I would have never given up my land. I would have a bus like this but just for vacationing 🤔
This is why you are you and they are whom they are.
We are all different and like different things.
So we live our own lives and congratulate those who live theirs in such a bold and daring manner.
It takes a strong and determined person to pull this off the rite way and I believe they've done just that
God bless this family and may their travels be fun and inspiring.
Gbaht
That just gives you a home base for whenever you're at home 🙃
I thought the family did a great job with designing their own mobile home for a family of 5. I am amazed . Very creative .
Thank you so much!
What a gorgeous build. Congratulations on the job well done!
wen wen thank you!
My dream Love Love Love it!!! WOW how Lovely ❤️ Be Blessed and Be Safe Enjoy Your Life ❣️
Sherri Davis we appreciate your support!
Hello Sherri your smile is priceless😊
* Great design!
* Salon on wheels--luv it!
* Have U ever considered towing a box trailer 4 a salon?
Shamrock Girl yes although we tow a car!
I agree. A box trailer to make up for the salon and then more space for the kids bedroom and bathroom! Love the whole design but think it would've been better this way.
Lovely home guys, great attention to detail, with so many highs, the serenity, the peace and understanding you have with one another certainly makes for a warm and welcoming atmosphere, all the best guys for you and your children's future endeavors xx
how unfair for the kid tht has to sleep on top of the tub ... when he grows up he not going to like that... and for going potty ???
Efrain Fernandez oh poor guy- his family takes him on amazing adventures- how hard- not! Our kids love it!
Not selfish at all! They need to make money. Maybe you are not familiarize with the beauty industry but one client can spend plenty of money. Hair cutting, coloring, styling, washing , all of that makes tip buck.
Efrain, you are not the sharpest tool in the shed
@@adamjoanieadventures How is it any different to if there was a bottom bunk?
Elle Keener exactly, it’s just like being in a top bunk, no difference at all.
Do they have a blog or UA-cam channel? I would love to know more of the specs of the bus. Do ppl agree with their bus choices, transition choice, and such

Amazing build! At first I was thinking, how could this be healthy mentally with 5 people in a small environment? Yet I believe a real important thing is your children feel very secure. They sleep near each other and that's a comfort to them. Plus you gave them privacy by providing enclosures for their bed. I like that and think it's very healthy. Plus a great design for the tub. Bravo!!!
H D they love it on the road! Thank you!
hopefully that one day i live in usa and make my house look like this
How do you plan to live when the kids get older and need more space?
Perhaps another floor could be added?
Maybe buy another bus, or a lodge cabin home on a property they will buy.. just a thought.
A beautiful space but wow there is so much “stuff”. I think I’d have to de clutter! Love the colour! My fav too
Hello Amanda how are you doing!!
VERY BUSY.
They have created a beautiful little home out of their bus.
Thank you! We are enjoying it!
This is a great build! I am amazed that they built a salon and had room for everything else even a wood stove! So brilliant! May they have many great adventures and safe journeys! Hats off to this couple for living out their dreams!
Sarah Lovestocraft that stove has kept us so warm and cozy- thank you for watching!
Hello Sarah how are you doing!!
You guys did a fabulous job, & this is one of the best schoolies I've seen!
Many, many happy travels & wonderful memories to you!
mizzpoetrics thank you!
I have considered down sizing but to give up the ability to live off the grid on 5 acres is so much smarter than a bus. Losing all that food animals and a garden provide is a big hit on a budget.
I am a grandfather now and I drove a semi truck for years so seeing more pavement parking lots does not appeal to me anymore.
I own a one acre lot on the golf course so I have about 4 times what everyone else does but I still want to get back to what they gave up.
Good luck to you guys!
I hope you really enjoy your endeavors and are successful in your goals!
BeauJameson enjoy yours as well!
Awesome job! Love the salon! Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Absolutely stunning, you should be so very proud of yourselves ,new subscriber right now.!!!😛.
Alan Hudson thank you so much!
U2+3 are absolutely beautiful and i just love Ur house how is a moving home.......thank u so much..................Namaste
Hello Josenne how are you doing!!
So I have a genuine question, for anyone who does road life. Do you do odd jobs or... like permanent jobs? I know living like this isn’t as costly, but how do you keep income?
Courtney Burian I do wellness coaching for a holistic health company, I also manage and do branding for an Instagram account, and I have my botanical skincare and make up line that I ship to every state.
Thank you. That’s really cool. I’m currently in college for marketing and haven’t decided what I want to do “in the real world”, but I’ve considered tiny living before. I just didn’t know how people make ends meet
Did you watch the whole video they sold their belongings she sold her business. Obviously they had money to do this ..
this is a lifestyle that won't be had too long to show their kids the world free them up and then they will go back to whatever it is that we're doing.
YOU WISH YOU COULD..
I APPLAUD, THEM IT'S A BEAUTIFUL BUS . A BEAUTIFUL LIFE STYLE
My husband is a utility foreman and has to travel constantly so we are looking into this as an option. I would continue to be a stay at home/homeschool mom tho. We have one 6 year old and a baby due next year. Sure would be being away from each other 3 weeks of every month 🤷♀️
Way to make it work!! I love the bed over the tub!! Y'all are brave and I wish I could do this!! Stay positive!! Your kiddos are gonna have the best memories of their childhood!! 😍😍
