Jamie lost her husband 17 years ago and raised her daughters on her own. About six years of that time they spent on a homestead with horses and dairy goats! But when her youngest got engaged, she decided it was time to do something for herself and see the country.
While she tried to work remotely when she first hit the road, she felt like it was taking away from her really enjoying her travels, so she’s been living off the sale of her home for now. She has plans to travel across Canada next and end up in Alaska where one of her daughters lives now.

Weston has always been fascinated by tiny homes and nomadic living, so when he found this bus for sale not far from him (for a great deal), he decided to take the plunge! A carpenter and woodworker by trade, he included so many gorgeous wood details in the conversion.
His unfolding shower setup is really cool (and doesn’t require removing a shower curtain), and he has an epic rooftop deck that also holds all his tools. A giant U-shaped hang-out area converts to a giant bed! Super comfy.

Jagaloria went to Standing Rock and met so many people living alternatively, she said it just didn’t feel right to stay in her apartment and work her life away. Thankfully, she made connections while there that allowed her to find a short bus and make it home!
Amazingly, her conversion only took one month of work with a former partner! The turquoise bus has all she needs — a bed, dinette and kitchen space — and she sells smudges, dream catchers, salves, and other products to afford her life on the road. Enjoy our Q&A with her below!

Johnny got his bus for $3,000 — and it needed a lot of work, especially regarding rust! A year and a half later, he was able to move into his truly beautiful skoolie.
He made sure to keep his two large dogs in mind when building, making them a comfortable under-bed lounge area and making sure he could keep the temperature comfortable for his fur babies. He has a unique couch and dinette design that I haven’t seen before, so be sure to watch the video for the details!

Tasha is an artist who first got into nomadic life so she could travel the country selling her artwork. When craft fairs closed down in 2020, she shifted years to converting tiny homes for other people, and the bus you’ll see below is her 6th creation! It’s been sold, but it was on the market when they shot the video.
The bus is wonderfully-thought-out, with a spacious kitchen that has a removable stovetop, so you can cook outdoors when you want, and a multipurpose modular couch. There’s a nice outdoor shower with a pop-in privacy curtain and well-placed hooks for your towel and shower bag. Enjoy the tour below!

Rita does amazing paintings and murals as she travels the country in her pig-pink bus named “Wilbur” (like from “Charlotte’s Web”). What’s extra impressive is that she only spent $9,000 on the entire bus and build to create a warm, homey and functional rig.
A large section of her bus is dedicated to her art studio and supplies, but she still has space for a kitchen and couch-to-bed setup. While she built a shower in the bus, she quickly realized it was impractical and transformed it into a closet with a portable emergency toilet in the base. What do you think of her spot?
