Katie and her two dogs live in a school bus conversion, but it’s far from Katie’s first go at tiny living. She’s been living tiny for the past six years and started out in the bed of her pick-up truck. When she grew tired of not being able to stand in her home, she decided to upgrade to her current skoolie, “Dirty Hairy.”
The bus has a full kitchen setup, including an oven, and she fits lots of storage into her small space! Plus, it’s decorated with fun colors and luxurious blankets to make this a true home on wheels. Enjoy her tour below.

- Before going tiny, #vanlife “found her” after she hiked the Appalachian trail.
- She’s worked several gigs over the years, including drafting for six years. Now she does consulting for part of her father’s business that she took over.
- Her bus has tons of storage in the cabinets that run head-height, the length of the bus. She has a separate little closet for dresses and coats.
- Her kitchen has an oven and mini-fridge, so she can cook just about anything she wants.
