Chris and Brandy were tired of their standard working life and decided to make the change to traveling full-time in their DIY school bus conversion. Brandy says she used to suffer from constant anxiety, but their life on the road has dramatically reduced her anxiety!

They chose a spa-like grey and light blue interior and tucked their bed into a cozy back cubby! They also store clothing in cargo nets.
