This is the story of Trebventure. They are a family of 5 who live full time in their DIY converted 1999 Blue Bird school bus. Parents, Brandon and Ashley, decided to ditch the public school system and homeschool their 3 children all while traveling around the United States in their skoolie.

We were more concerned with spending time experiencing life everyday rather than living for the weekend. – Ashley
