This is Our Dharma Tribe: David, Melanie and little Alice (plus two pups!) living in an amazing DIY skoolie bus conversion.
The Canadian family moved into their bus home in September of 2016 and are now documenting their skoolie life on Facebook and Instagram. The 2000 Thomas Flat Nose bus boasts about 210 sq. ft. and a 5.9 Cummins motor, and cost them $4,000. They currently stay in Stony Plains, Alberta and have spent $10,000 on the remodel (they still need solar and water tanks to finish the home).
Enjoy the pictures and be sure to follow them on social media! Links to their profiles are below the pictures.

Plenty of room to curl up with a good book.
A look of sheer focus. (Beautiful curtains, by the way).

I love seeing these bus to house conversions. They are not as easy to convert as people may think. This is because of the numerous curves that can be found in vehicles.
Very true! They are tricky builds.
It’s so inspiring and refreshing to see people living alternatively. Your little ones look so happy….swinging in the kitchen…too cute. Have fun exploring.
I love seeing these 🙂
What a wonderful home! What an adorable little girl! This is a great conversion. Really beautiful and well designed.
Alice made it 🙂 I loved seeing how happy she was in her unconventional home!
Nice! I like van/bus/truck conversions. So many different approaches. Alice looks like she’s digging it & the swing inside was a great idea. Using 2 gate valves for a kitchen faucet is a very cool & practical idea. So easy to service. Best wishes on your journey.
Yes I think Alice is a big fan 🙂
Thank you for the kind words everyone! And yes, Alice is one happy little girl! 😀💖
