Raising Kindness Adventures: Family’s 2020-Response #BusLife


For seven years this family had a successful gymnastics business they ran out of a bus — but when 2020 hit, they went out of business almost instantaneously. Savings kept them afloat through October 2020, when they realized they needed to do something if they wanted a home.

So despite the difficulties and stresses associated with losing their income, they made the best of it and converted their work bus into their skoolie home! Now the couple and their son (and dog) live full-time in the bus, which they converted using furniture from their home and other repurposed materials to save money.

You can follow them as they continue making lemonade over at @raisingkindnessadventures.

They wanted an oven large enough for a frozen pizza.

    I applaud your creativity. This is amazing. If I had the money I would something like this.

    Cool! Great job! I love buses because so much can be done with them, and you did a lot!

    This one is different 😊!! I love the bathroom. Especially how you can set the temperature in the shower to your liking. Kitchen is fabulous but!!! Your son’s bedroom is the best space I have seen (and I have seen a lot) for children or a child. I love how you gave him not just the space around the bed but an actual play room. Yep this one is outta the box.
