Less is more and this guy is taking advantage of it! Good for him and seems super happy which is what life’s about. That bus would be sweet for a weekend trip by a lake.
yes I live in a lil 1 bed 1 bath guest house 480sf if that and how much space does one need? saw a recent lottery winner bough a $25,000,000 mega mansion for 1 person its going to cost him $25,000 MO to maintain that good for him if I dont have to buy a lot of fuel and bike hike walk I could make $25k last a yr
I love hearing about how people’s lives have evolved. And this guy seems to be a really good guy. He’s found a creative, useful way to make a living & his own lovely way of life. Good for him👍🏻🍀🇨🇦
I loved your bus and the best part was the bath and second was the pot belly stove. Really loved all of it. Except for the color red but that's no biggie, easy to change that part. Wondering what it would cost for one of your bus/tiny home?
Love his articulate take on this lifestyle. Love his turning the standard hallway layout and choices on their head. The tub is GENIUS and I see a nice opportunity there for a removable work surface on top of that that can be a table for outside as well for some people going TUB over shower. Nice RIG!
Hi Jenna, hope you and your family are well and happy. Justin is amazing! All that life, travel and self taught bus knowledge/ experience . My favorite bits are that amazing wood stove, a great design, all the glowing live edge, and the party side door.. And the tub!!’ I’m stopped by the toilet next to his bed. Haven’t found a way around some of the disastrous possibilities in my mind. But he’s the maker and resident. I don’t live there. Beautiful work.
Love the aesthetic and the vibe it creates. Didn’t see a lot about his build that would bode well in a crash. It might be there. But if not, it’s not just this creator/builder who isn’t also designing for highway speeds, etc. Think the community needs to talk more about this. @VMvanlife did a to-the-point series about thoughtfully designed van builds.
This is great. Many good ideas brought to life. I love the water filtration system for the tub. It makes so much sense. I also like the exterior paint job. Thanks for the tour!
Wow!!! When I imagine what kind of build I would do if my dream ever came true, this is exactly what I see in my head!!!! Absolutely gorgeous build! I love everything about it!! Cheers
Some really neat things about the layout that I like but if I put my tub there I’d soak my bed. Kudos to him for managing it though because I bet it’s awesome.
So nice you are enjoying your fun home. My tiny home is also about 100 sq ft. Living in while finishing up the inside. I'll be getting a small camper size tub, yours is super luxurious. My home is not mobile though plan to also create a small, possibly teardrop style camper for travel. Keep enjoying and creating memories ✌️
Not bad! My only gripe is the electrical system, I hope he's still working on making it less messier... That does not instill a lot of confidence looking at it like that. 4:27 ESPECIALLY when it's right next to the tub.
Love this young man. ❤ I wish he was near me to help me purchase and build a home on wheel. I live on SS and funds are at a minimal. 😢 I rent a room because it's all I can afford and I hate it. Keep the dream alive ❤️⭐
Actually one of my thoughts on a public transit bus was how wonderful it would be if people (including driver) had individual "pods" inside the bus, so they were more safe (from disease, crime, etc) as well as avoidance of things like the horrific smell of the homeless person in the next seat/"pod." And a system inside the pod, where you'd enter your destination stop to help facilitate exiting the bus. Maybe part of the system would include a silent/visual signal inside the pod that your stop is coming up next. If several people were getting off at that point, only like every other pod would be able to exit first. Then the second group of people. Which would further facilitate the safety of the passengers (no one would know who would be exiting in the first or second round). I think, with this type of system (or better), WAY more people would opt for this type of transportation (excellent for our precious planet). In essence, making the comfort and safety of human beings first priority. Rather than money, and treating human beings like valueless cargo. Just some thoughts, ha ;-)
I didn’t see where your company is located. I’m going to guess it’s the West Coast since that seems to be the starting point for every company I’ve seen so far! I didn’t see anything on your website but I’m sure that’s more mu fault. Love what I’ve seen so far. Simple but homey! Perfect!!
Dope! I don't know if you can call this "minimalist" with that tub (!) and that stove (!) and more than abundant solar. Obviously you have built enough to know what you want for who you are. I hate the word Wow, but Wow!
I HIGH KEY #LOVE THIS. THE BATH 🛁 IS CLUTCH. THE LOOK IS VERY SORT OF RUSTIC. I EOULD PERSONALLY REQUIRE AT LEAST A SMALL TV MOUNTED ON A SWIVAL.. TO BE COMPLETLE COMFY.
How do you keep the bedding and curtains dry when you are using the tub or cooking/washing dishes? I'm just curious because everything is so close together and I am so not coordinated, you must have a plan, lol!
The curtains go far enough on the rods to get out of the way of the water when in use, and the bedding is easily pushed aside. But yeah, you're right, a bath takes a bit of space management, especially in such a small space.
no. If this was the only thing I ever saw of nomad life, I would run like hell. Thankfully, I know that van life is not a schlock commercial. I have to go wash my eyes and ears now.
You always show the best homes, thanks Jenna😊
Thank you! We sure do try

❤😅 I Totally 💯 Agree!
The bathtub blew my mind!!! Love your simple life mentality and your adventurous spirit. Truly a unique home full of warmth and friendship❤
The tub is AMAZING!!!
I’m a paratransit rider in my local community and every time I go anywhere, I think of how I would build it out haha :)
Llooooll FrFr ❤ YeS 👏🏾
I like how a very low key type person gets so much done. His bus looks wonderful.
I love hearing about how people’s lives have evolved. And this guy seems to be a really good guy. He’s found a creative, useful way to make a living & his own lovely way of life. Good for him👍🏻🍀🇨🇦
Awesome build, dude! It has everything you need, bravo👏
Never have I thought about what a "hippie red neck" would look like but thanks to these guys I no longer have to wonder.
I hadn't seen him until I read your comment and it made sense once he popped on screen 😂😂😂
Gorgeous build. Makes me want to go hang out with my friends
I LOVE THIS BUS DESIGN. IT HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED. THE TOILET BEING BUILT UNDER THE STEP IS BRILLIANT. AND THAT TUB IS TO DIE FOR. I LOVE IT!!!
Yay Justin Riley!! :) I’m so happy to see this!!

Excellent! Great job! You have a life-long job that I'm sure pays well.
You are so talented and blessed with those gifted hands. God bless you stay safe and protected. Love from the UK ♥️♥️♥️♥️ 🐝🇬🇧
My son would love that, just being able to roll from your bed to the bath tub lol 😂. Love it so much ❤
Fantastic, love the tub!🎉
The tub is really my favorite part of this build.
Great job, love,love that stove/cook top & the tub w/recirculating & filtered water!👍
Really creative yet functional! Thank you! It has some ideas for our build out!
Love his articulate take on this lifestyle. Love his turning the standard hallway layout and choices on their head. The tub is GENIUS and I see a nice opportunity there for a removable work surface on top of that that can be a table for outside as well for some people going TUB over shower. Nice RIG!
I absolutely love everything that was said at the beginning! 💞
Yes, finally a real tub. I love to soak. That tub is perfect!

This build is really beautiful!! He is very talented!!!
I loved your bus and enjoyed your video and good luck to you.
That tub is next level!
Very interesting. Cute tub! Job well done 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽

You make an excellent point - roadworthiness is a consideration for anyone building and buying these houses
Very cool, the plumbing is the coolest ...right on!!!!!!
Oh great! Justin creates such excellent scenes.
So impressive! It's as beautiful as it is functional,.. well done!
Wow, a bathtub, even. Amazing home. Omg the table!!!!
There Is seriously No Ick By This Build out. Absolutely 💯 Gorgeous results So Far.
❤
Just gorgeous. Love the water system....
This is great. Many good ideas brought to life. I love the water filtration system for the tub. It makes so much sense. I also like the exterior paint job. Thanks for the tour!
WOwww WOwww WOwww… Dreamy build. I absolutely LOVE ♥️ this! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 in my dreams this is home.
This is very whimsical build - I’m positive somebody is going to see this and just start throwing money at him until he says ‘ok, it’s yours’ 😁
Yes! The tub is grand❤
Total perfection! And with a gorgeous bathtub? I'm in! This guy could make my van any day! Makes other people's lives look totally ... yawn... boring.
I love the tubs way of recycling water. might steal that idea. my one luxury is hot baths. I use it as a painkiller and relaxiation
Wow!!! When I imagine what kind of build I would do if my dream ever came true, this is exactly what I see in my head!!!! Absolutely gorgeous build! I love everything about it!!
Cheers
Good afternoon 🙂 Blessings on your day and blessings on your work 🙏
You rock Jenna!!! Thank you for all the awesome content!!
Dude isn't wasting his smarts nor talent. Love the bachelor pad 👍.
Some really neat things about the layout that I like but if I put my tub there I’d soak my bed. Kudos to him for managing it though because I bet it’s awesome.
Love the tub!! 😄
This is so unique! I love the tub!!!
Reallly nice home wow wow congratulations
Your bus looks gr8 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Love this bus!
Interesting concept.
So nice you are enjoying your fun home. My tiny home is also about 100 sq ft. Living in while finishing up the inside. I'll be getting a small camper size tub, yours is super luxurious.

Haha! I'm from Portland, and I recognize the TriMet colors! Nice job with that build!
Not bad! My only gripe is the electrical system, I hope he's still working on making it less messier... That does not instill a lot of confidence looking at it like that. 4:27 ESPECIALLY when it's right next to the tub.
Very cool! This van has it all!
Nice bus, very creative 👌 👏 ❤
Love that wood stove.
I will love to have one!
How much, and where?
Great job ❣❣❣
Love this young man. ❤ I wish he was near me to help me purchase and build a home on wheel. I live on SS and funds are at a minimal. 😢 I rent a room because it's all I can afford and I hate it. Keep the dream alive ❤️⭐
AMAZING BUS !!!!! THE BEST I HAVE SEEN !!! XOXOXO
Jenna When can we see an update on the tiny home you're building for yourself? 💜💜💜
I love this! But where is all of his storage? Like clothing, dishes, etc...?
Absolutely beautiful

I tried watching but cannot get passed his surfer talk 😂
Loooooooovvveeeee Her!!!!
Very impressive!
Enjoy your youth! looks like fun!
Cool conversion, can't believe the sell price though. I'll definitely have to build my own, but I don't need that much, it'll be camping for me.

Neat!😊 Love the bath tube right next to the bed, your rig is so cool. Love it. Best of luck to you, take er easy.
Less is more. Love it.
The tub and stove, 😊
Dope! I don't know if you can call this "minimalist" with that tub (!) and that stove (!) and more than abundant solar. Obviously you have built enough to know what you want for who you are. I hate the word Wow, but Wow!
Loved the video!
Incredible, cheers
I like his tub, I'm a little "iffy" about it being so close to the bed tho
Very nice, I'm curious how much the tub weighs?
Thanks
Wonderful
I HIGH KEY #LOVE THIS. THE BATH 🛁 IS CLUTCH. THE LOOK IS VERY SORT OF RUSTIC. I EOULD PERSONALLY REQUIRE AT LEAST A SMALL TV MOUNTED ON A SWIVAL.. TO BE COMPLETLE COMFY.
Love it.

How many miles to the gallon do you get?
How much was the new duramax engine?
Wow! Fab
Where does he keep his clothes??
Cute! But does your mattress get wet with the tub being so close?
He probably lifts the bed up before taking a bath😆
How do U like Fiberglass of this bus as opposed to a school bus??
Different but nice
I have though 😂
$35000 on renovations only without cost of the bus, to live on 100 sq feet. Is that expensive?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
35k reno, 25k was the bathtub.
It shouldn't cost that much to make a comfortable, liveable space...
no. If this was the only thing I ever saw of nomad life, I would run like hell. Thankfully, I know that van life is not a schlock commercial. I have to go wash my eyes and ears now.
