VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
This family of 6 hit the road to find freedom from the 9-5. Also, they found it very important to not only home school their kids from the road, they felt as though it was a much better education than the typical method. I have said this over and over again, the education kids get on the road, both IQ & EQ, is one of the most unique experiences out there. When you have your geology lesson at Zion National Park, you might just pick up more there than in a classroom.

Privacy for parents is a common question. This school bus conversion is a perfect example of clever parents figuring that tricky aspect of life on the road!
Tubebuddy recommends you like your own comment and pin it. Nothing wrong with that.
It was an amazing bus
They are so clever
@Zayalla Fantasy mean liking
@Zayalla Fantasy I do the same, but not as a "like". It's my way of scanning quickly for those posts not read yet.
"Potatoes because we're from Idaho"... Favorite quote. 😂💕💕💕 Nice bus!
Having a Golden Retriever is like having a cherry on top to a great family
They are such great family pets.
Agree 💯👍😌
yes
I could not agree more about the absolutely rad and unique experience the children will have. A pretty amazing way to grow up and LIVE. Making memories and not just reading about the experiences of others.
I think I've watched at least 500 tiny home videos and this is one my new favorite. Love how low key your family is and the genius functional build. Cant wait until we begin our journey:)
We loved being parked next to Raggedwood Bus at Skooliepalooza 2020! They have a great build and are such nice people!
When we finally finish our build, we will be traveling with our golden retriever and our shepherd ❤️ seeing their pup on their bus gave us hope that it'll work!
@@eatplantswithme that's great; the animals have so many places to roam free and explore during nomadic life. Having their "parents" with them daily will make them happy & secure. It's a win win, imo. Good luck
@@eatplantswithme do you all have an Instagram account
Absolutely love the fact that the young child’s foot is tapping on the ground In time with them
Playing the musical instrument xx
I think this is a wonderful way for kids to grow up, and for families to really be a family
I agree with the poster below, out of all the tiny or bus home videos I've seen this family seems the most down to earth. Love all the rational choices you made when building and while traveling. Fantastic! Your kids will have the best memories.
That is pretty cool and unique! I am in the process of saving up for an RV to make cozy for me and my kids so that we can travel around too. That is true freedom! You guys are living the dream and very blesssed!
Thank's for the tour. Your layout is great suit's all of you. The bunk's are cozy looking..... And I do like the bed room door..... Yes you need your space too. Enjoy your a nice family God Bless!!
Your tour was great! I liked the storage under the kids bunks, haven't seen that before. Your sticker/ magnet idea is cool.
I must have watched 100 skoolie videos, this is by far my favorite.
Great job, your right , your kids need the education they are getting, it’s so important they get the experience of our beautiful country along with math and reading, love the life you having, stay happy and healthy and love one another, it s what life is all about,😊👍
I love the bus. Very good build. The children are lucky. They will get to see and do lots of thing.
this sone of the best school bus conversions I have seen! Such great use of space.
An idea for you for counter space. Add a fold down shelf at the end of the counter. During prep you move a pillow and raise the shelf, then fold down for full couch use.
Cute family! I like them!! Really nice home on wheels. Love the deck. And like the under bed storage the kids have. Not seen that before and it sure is a good use of space. I wish this sweet family health, happiness and safety on their travels!! Enjoyed the video.
❤️💜💚
I take my cap off to you..for following your dream lifestyle that's full of adventure with 4 children in tow..what a great achievement..☀️🙏☀️
What a beautiful lifestyle with your children
Love your home on wheels, so comfy and cozy looking. That idea about the games is genius 👍
In regards to the worktop situation,
Have you thought about getting a piece of wood to sit over your sink for extra work space / chopping board? And with the end that's nearer to the couch would you have room to fit a smaller worktop on the side with a hinge and a support arm that way it could be put up and down as you need it? watch loads of these tiny homes videos so I'm getting my ideas from the there, full disclosure 😉 safe and happy trails to you all
Enjoyed the tour 💗
What a great idea with the game storage.
Very nice. I personally feel that children living nomadic will be smarter and more secure as well as learning the importance of family, sharing and being conservative. Not to mention the benefits of home schooling. Having both parents involved in the kuds' daily lives and truly experiencing and visiting things & places will only make for a well rounded education. Best of luck. Be safe.
you learn to share in kindergarten. what happens when the kids move past kindergarten? I think math, sciencea and so on are more important then 'sharing' to be taught to older kids
Awesome. Our homeschool curriculum is very focused on math, science and so on and we love it. That seems like a great lifestyle. Iv been a custom harvester my whole life and while our family only lived on the road summer and fall it was a huge benefit to me and my sisters.
Good for you. I could not have 4 children a large dog and 2 parents in such a small space personally. Enjoy!
I love this family! I've seen them before on another video.
Wonderfully planned... such a nice family ... loved it
I like the idea of the shower, toilet, lavatory, although cramped in a small place, are separate. The father looks someone out from the Woodstock era. I have always wondered how often dreadlocks hair is washed, seems to me it's water repellent.
Don’t use his hair as an example of dreadlocks Or NUBIAN locs! Look for info written by Black folks. Ahmjessayin
@@ekdaufin1485 I thought it was dreadlocks. Sorry.
These are dreadlocks, and we wash them exactly how you wash loose hair! The only thing different (usually) is the type of shampoo and the rinsing. Imagine them like sponges, rinsing takes a long time to make sure all of the soap is out
Safe travels. Thanks for sharing. I like the idea of all in one plug and go solar system.
Make a cover for the stove from wood,gives you more prepping space.
One of the best videos I have viewed on this channel
This is the best build for a family that I've seen so far with this style of bus.
My question is how do you wash your clothes? I have thought that I would want a washer and dryer on my bus
great organization- practical- love it!!
Your tour was really great. So many great ideas 💡!
Cool, chill dude. All the luck to you and your family ❤️
Love the whole setup
I love y'alls home! How did y'all make the shelves in the living room and bedroom? We are currently in the planning stage of our build and need some ideas. So far I've really enjoyed your families video and build.
A skoolie from Idaho!! I was born and raised in Idaho and still live in Idaho.
Tent 2 Bus: HUGE upgrade
I'm thinking, this is the future lifestyle of a lot of young families due to the economy, the pandemic, and the uncertainty of the future. It's quite a lesson in the transformation of the American Way of Life.
Totally, I wonder when the RV companies are gonna catch on and drastically reduce prices. Makes no sense that you can buy a bus for $1k and have this lifestyle for less than $10k if you wanted but rvs are so expensive lol
Don’t fall for the New World Order.
We have an outdoor kit when the hubs concocted and cook more outside than in. Tiny counters aren't easy to navigate.
Seriously, I wanna eat "funeral potatoes" although I don't know what that is...is it like putting leftovers on a baked potato?
I recently had them after a funeral of my husband's aunt, and it was the first time I had heard them referred to as that. But basically they are like hash brown potatoes (the shredded kind) made with cheese and sour cream I believe (not sure if anything else is in there) and then they're topped with crushed potato chips or you can use crushed corn flakes. They're really good, and you may have had them before but not referred to as funeral potatoes lol. I know I've had them before and hadn't heard that before last week's funeral.
Question?? Why do you need a “Private” parent bedroom??????? Don’t they co-sleep?
How do you find a ball of fire man like this, an over achiever?? Do you advertise? This would be my dream man come true. I’m sure he’s well read and educated to be able to support a family remotely from his school bus! Such a lucky lucky wife! Good to see they are big time readers, I’m sure this will be passed to their young ones!!! Mom must be extra special herself to Home School all her children! This is not an easy task! Very hard work! Such a happy well rounded family ❤
PS. My favorite thing in life is hanging out! Wow! Just love the deck for hanging 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Each of the kiddos have their own bunks for sleeping which leaves mom & dad's bedroom toward the back of the bus. :)
Wonderful family
Great bus/home. Thank you for sharing.
That bus was amazing love it
"Music to Get" at 7:50!!!!!! I have notes EVERYWHERE on music to get! LOL. We have very similar taste as well! Cheers!
Great man. God bless you and your family. I'll se you on the road one day...
good build, you probably thought of everything
Great build
So what's the point then of taking the game boxes and store them somewhere else? It will take double the space cuz you keep the boxes and the other boxes with the game pieces as well
Rox Y They didn't store the game boxes. They stored the game boards together in one space and got rid of the larger boxes it came in, using the smaller plastic bins to hold game pieces.
@@singlewcheese6401 ah that makes more sense
Very cool bus…
Love it!.. enjoy xx
Love the bus
Is anyone else confused because they said they have 4 kids but only introduced 3 of them?
Their oldest was away at the time the video was filmed :-)
I thought he was including the dog in the number! Haha
I just asked the same question! Lol
You guys are amazing keep up the good work
Augh! No notification! Aw well, will be watching it now, I guess, been bus shopping all day...
I find it funny.... when all these people who are living on a bus get to their kids beds, they usually say "here is their own space"...no it's their own bed!!! Just because they might have a tiny basket, or something hanging on the wall,it doesn't really make it a space.... it's still just a bed.
What I would like to know is how y'all get mail?
i don't know about them, but i use anytimemailbox.com. they will also scan your mail for you if required, and they receive/sign-for packages. peace
@@douglasharley2440 Oh ok. I was just curious. Thanks for the info.v
You can get a po box.
@@anniebellemiller2986 you cannot use a po box on your drivers license and many other official documents.
Where does the home schooling take place? I don’t see any tables.
Do they want to sell it? You'd be surprised what you can learn to live without when you downsize
in my experience, living smaller makes one HAPPIER. i don't spend all my time, money, and energy taking care of a bunch of stuff i don't even need, or really even like. i'd rather have fewer things that are really nice and really useful! peace
@@douglasharley2440 you couldn't have said it more perfect. I agree 100%. as long as I have food on the table a place to cook it a roof over her head and a place for my animals I'm good. My kids are on their own and getting ready to graduate so I'm good
@@Loadedwhisperer in reality, it's the simplest things in life that give the most satisfaction and REAL happiness. :) peace
Everyone can sit in bus while bus is on the road ,there is no any traffic laws issues?
You guys make good videos
Do you tow the van or does your wife drive it separately?
Doesn't look like their couches have seatbelts, so he probably drives the bus alone and the rest of them drive in the van
Nice!
Did you modify the front dashboard area at all?
What size engine to pull that bus and a SUV??
So amazing guys. How can I donate?
*sweet bus, cool family!* that being said, the solar system could be much better though, and i would drain that nature's head directly into the greywater tank, so don't ever have to dump the pee jug. :p use a hepvo valve on the last part of drain system and you'll never smell a thing (i use it in my build, and got the idea from this dude: th-cam.com/video/wd2TsFhACes/w-d-xo.html). peace
Great job, but you have a deck but don't have a bathroom
What part of Idaho are you all from
Sorry if I would of been a little patient I would of found out where in Idaho you were from. Nice build some very nice innovative ideas for storage. Love your house on wheel's
Nice ppl
Where’s the tv?
Are you counting Charlie as another kid? B/C you said you have 4 kids! Just a little confused!! Lol
I'm thinking the same
In the thumbnail there was an older girl but they didn't mention her at all
You counted wrong.
Its a family of 7 including the dog 🐕
😁
actually wondering if they were counting the dog they only showed 3 kids
What size bed in the master??
Probably a queen sized bed
What was cost of bus?
I’d say around $20k with buying the bus and converting
Fridge doors are backwards - change them!
@@lulu97000 The handles should be on the other side, so it opens the other way.
whew that hair is such an eyesore
Very homey...
Some look like show homes...
Saves on hotels for domestic touring...
im guessing his a CPA.
👍👍👍👌♥️
Seems very cluttered in some areas
I totally agree that the parents should have privacy but tbh it's very selfish of them to have a whole ass room while the kids get little bunks that they can't even sit up in. I feel extra bad for the oldest daughter (they didn't introduce her cuz she was away but she is in the thumbnail) because this is a time in her life that she might want a little privacy more than ever. I am all for bus life but it aggravates me when parents give themselves tons of space but the kids barely get room to even sit up in their own "room". This could probably work for younger kids though. Just my opinion and I am not in their position and I don't know how the kids feel so don't think I am judging them
you're right
SORRY but bunks without windows look too claustrophobic, I notice the master bedroom has got windows tho, but not the children .🤔!!!!!!!!!!!
VERY NICE..DO YOU HAVE T.V...WASH., D.C.
Chad, get a haircut, Sir!
