    She is an inspiration! She's learned a lot and is very self-aware. This kind of independent really hones some good skills as well as self-reliance. I love seeing all the young women who do this on their own. Her bus is really well set up! And I really get the toilet thing. I only have an outhouse, but it's mine and it's fine! So glad she was self-assured enough to share about it.

    But, I also like this young woman's attitude about her bus life, her resilience, and her choices. That is also beautiful to see (in any person, male or female, young or old). Brava!

    I traveled for 12 years after my wife passed away, just the thought of doing repairs was enough to quit, but with living in an apartment has added even more stress and yes, I do miss traveling but at 70 , I would need someone else to help out.
    So good luck with your travels, I do miss them.

      Why not a younger guy that can help? At older ages, you normally have $$ but need help. Younger people have drive but 0 $$ Perfect match.
      Buy a turnkey one. I'm certainly not doing much work on mine if/when I buy unless I team up w a partner. You only have one back, right?

    • @rogerstroup7240
      @rogerstroup7240 2 роки тому

      Thanks for the offer, but just remember, I live in a low-income apartment complex, not enough money to stay or move and the constant threat of being evicted because you complain about them violating your rights to privacy is very stressful . I've never ran into this type of trashy lifestyle over apartments, leaves a bad taste and feeling in your heart that people can act like this.
      I don't have a lot of money, but it could help out with house payments and it would add a newer car to the story and an old man with 2 ferrets ( not getting rid of them ).
      Hum,
      Looking for wife who needs someone to help with costs for her home/motor coach who needs newer car to go shopping in, OH, not wanting more kids either.

      @@rogerstroup7240 I really feel for anyone having to live in an apartment. We lived in one for a few months when first married 44 years ago, then a rental house while we built our first house. Then move to get away from being in a city, built two more houses, last move bought a foreclosure with good bones but cosmetic damage that my husband is working on.. We feel so absolutely blessed, no mortgage, just property taxes. We wish we'd done that right from the start. Now at 70 & 74, I'd love one of these vans just for some traveling but it's just a pipe dream. I imagine the suggestion of finding a travel companion truly compatible would not be easy. Hoping you find a way out of apartment living.

    You've done a wonderful job of this skoolie build, Sarah! You are such a charming and wholesome person too, lovely to meet you and Bo. I can see your artistic side in the use of natural elements, little hobbit cabinet doors, beautiful wood ceilings, very lovely Talavera tiles, and all your hobbies. You are living the life I wish I had led as a young woman decades ago, but life was different then. So very glad to see women acquire and master DIY skills. They are not the sole domain of men yet most women are afraid to try. This shows a bold spirit, courage, and tenacity. Bravo!
    Bo is a sweet dog. He must love all the outdoor time. In AZ, check his paws for Cholla cactus fish hook spines, and when you are in CA, check for the dreaded foxtail seeds that are like barbs and dangerous. Remember that while dogs tolerate cold better than us, they heat up faster and cannot cool down as fast as humans, so Mesa, AZ temps are not for summer camping. Go Northwest in summer and your dog will love the cool redwood forests and streams.
    Your bus size is excellent. Large buses are hard to park and turn, The Jon boat idea is genius. I've never seen that before, very resourceful of you. Van life necessity is truly the mother of inventions. You are right. Van life teaches you a lot about yourself. It also develops skills you did not have before. You have to learn a lot of trade skills, use power tools, be inventive, and learn not to sweat the small stuff. Its a growth opportunity.
    There are a couple of things I would consider if I were you.
    1. Fireplaces are prone to fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. You could die in your sleep if it malfunctions, flue is blocked. Please consider a diesel heater. Carbon emissions are lower too. Be sure your insurance covers fire damage from wood stove.
    2. Get a Planet Fitness membership. It costs very little at $10 - $12 per month. It offers you a workout, showers, and the company of other people. Its good for mental health and prevents isolation. A hot shower works miracles.
    3. If you want your dog to feel cooler and shed less in summer, get an A5 Andis AGC corded clipper or Wahl Bravura Cordless Clipper from petedge.com and a pack of Geib Buttercup blades (#5, 7, 10, 30). Don't buy cheaper blades or clipper - they don't work. Don't buy from stores, only online professional sites as you get high quality. A5 is the Pro Clipper standard type. Clip your dog's hair on belly using #10 for crew cut, or #30 for shave down. Clip his flanks shorter from inside - thin out, and also under the tail, genital area. #5 can be used on top for a rough cut. You can groom other dogs too, as a side income. UA-cam has videos on grooming all breeds.
    Bon Voyage, and thanks for sharing.

    I am pleased to see such a downhome build. It's obvious it wasn't professionally built, and that is such an encouragement to other who want to create something they can live in too! I'm a retired Professional and am researching videoes for my Grand Daughter, to encourage her to step out and give it a go. The John Boat idea is a really good idea. Your Rig looks so much bigger than it is. You go girl! And next time you are passing through North Central Texas plan to drop by my shop and spend a few days.( North of Fort Worth in the Country) My wife and I would love to help you finesse a few things you don't have the tools to build. I've got a full shop and we are both retired, so I have the time to donate. Would be fun. And I have hook up and a dump station next to my shop, so you can still have your privacy. Seriously, if you're passing through and need a safe place to spend the night and take care of some issues, come drop in.
    Many of our Class A Coach Friends drop in and spend a few days making improvements and doing maintenance on theor Coaches and toweds. So you're more than welcome when you pass this way. All our kids are grown and gone, so we enjoy the company.

    Sarah put so much thought into her build and it really showed. Some of my fave things were the rounded corners on the closet door (as well as the mirror on the inside) and how huge the interior seemed! She was sitting near the wood stove, while Beau was on the bed. Honestly, it looked larger than some of the apartments I have had (with three kids and me!!)
    I wish I was brave enough, and had the carpentry know-how to do this. I just retired and would love to take off with just me and the dog.

    I love it. I love the non-Instagram-ready, rustic, homey feel. Very creative. I love the boat roof, the double-seater, the rounded doors, the shelving, etc. etc.

    Really rad and homey build. As a note, she should consider adding a metal strap between/under the holes for the front bench. It will stop the bench from tearing out of the holes in a collision.

    Enjoyed every word this young wise woman spoke. May you be blessed with a very happy life and may you be blessed with earthy life mate that cherishes you. The school bus the way you have it would be enough for me as well.
    Very nice work!
    Go to the gelding sales. There was a time I met many of working ranch cowboy silversmiths.
    Jordan Valley area. The Grest Basin cowboys love the flash of silver and color.
    Good Luck!

    Awesome bus build. I suppose the schoolie community is similar to the gypsy community from days gone by, a lot of beautiful, creative souls unwilling to conform to the boxes the rest of us choose to live in. God bless you on your journey through life.

    WoW girl! This is awesome! You are awesome!! Love love your schoolie! Love the rustic feel.
    What I love the most tho......... You make me feel like it's do-able! First step is just going to be getting my van! Then the rest will follow!! Love how you said you didn't have a lot of money even sometimes after payday only 50-60 went to van! And how you need a new tire don't know how... But you are out there doing it living it!! Kudos to you!
    Wishing you Many happy and safe travels......
    Cheers!

    Just a note for those building a bus, showing their build, and renovating an RV... Insurance companies are watching these videos and are canceling the insurance on people who have a wood stove in their build.
