Thanks so much for all the comments and feedback!! One of the main reasons I did the project was to inspire others to take the leap so it really means a lot. The amount of humans I've connected with on the road and online has been truly life changing and so stoked to be apart of such an solid world tribe of like minded individuals. Heart goes out to all of you, much love and good luck with all the builds! Currently toughing out the start of winter in Nelson B.C. and getting ready for what is hopefully an epic snowboard season. Bought a 2003 Diesel Ford Bluebird Bus this year so my plan is to start renoing it in the Spring. I'll be selling Bodhi numero uno in May-June so hit me up on IG if you'd like to know more. You can follow along on @bodhibus for updates and progress on the new project. Also, to follow my artwork and what I've been up to in the studio you can find me @creatures_of_the_sun on IG. Thanks everyone who has ordered artwork so far, extremely grateful for the support! Planning to make a short doco this winter with all my footage from the trip so stay tuned for some more footy capturing the build and life on the road.
I currently have a rusty 2005 Kia Sedona I transformed into a cheap campervan while saving money to eventually buy a bigger home on wheels once my almost 16 year old daughter moves out. How is the gaz consumption on your Bohdi, with all the added structures? Did you sell it already? Do you make enough money with your art to maintain the nomadic lifestyle or do you take jobs? I was gonna ask how much you are selling it but I probably cannot afford it yet. Take care!
I saw your bus once! Parked on the main street in Cumberland, Vancouver Isalnd. It left a real impression on me, to the point that I recognised it immediately when I saw this video. All these years later and I've just finished my 3rd van build, myself. This latest one, here in Australia. Thanks for the inspiration man ✌
Congratulations you are living the best life. Plus you take your home were ever you going..Beautiful bus built 👌 is perfect..good luck on your journey through van life
I usually can't stand vanlife vids. A bunch of spoiled yuppies that don't get it. You sir are an amazing human with amazing energy. I'm so happy for you.
*I've seen large buses, buses with beds and bath, all kinds. This is actually my favorite. It's literally a comfortable den in the road. Awesome job ‼️*
Awesome dude... I'm 75 ... Have been a road artist all of my life. Now looking to bus it. I must say your interior is one of the best and clean looking of all I have seen. Keep on keep n on ..... TIE TIS. Truck It Easy. Truck It Safe. JT SPY....
What I like about this build: It's beautiful with all the wood, wood framed windows, and its a small rig. A roof deck for time soaking up some vitamin D. 2:04 speaks on overcoming self-limiting thoughts that society and family members inundate us with.
Ive seen just about every skoolie video on TH-cam twice and half the van life videos and this is the coolest and most awesome use of space I've seen yet! The deck too is so creative and a new way of use too! Very inspiring, thank you.
Absolutely Love it! Looking at this same bus, a 93' for my first venture into Vanlife! I resonate with every sentiment that you've expressed! Thank you for such a lovely heart felt confirmation! Hope youre still enjoying life!
I've been living in a class b rv with my buddy for 4 months. It really does get to you, no matter how good of a friend he is. However, it can be the best atmosphere and fun possible. Trust me!
That is the most awesome conversion I have ever seen. Total manifestation of yourself and your art. Your artistic ability has made this into something that is smart. your design skills and eye for beauty has made it extremely functional but with great beauty. The design of the bed is the best I’ve seen and don’t even get me started on the table.....I am an artist myself and totally appreciate what you have done...Your artwork is great too....so colorful and bright and full of motion and life.
frigin awesome! one of the best builds that we have seen. So much detail and so much love put in to it! Baja gives out the best vibes! cheers brother, and may you keep living the dream!
Aside from the prayer flags, this is the most unique, humble, cozy short skoolie build I’ve ever seen. Great job! Hope this guy is living his best life 🏄♀️☮️👍🏽😃
Good for you! I am beginning my journey as well (bus shopping). Nothing worse than spending your life moving around. I’ve been there too. Hope the best for you! Your art is awesome!
Hands down the greatest short bus I've seen yet. I'm so happy for you that everything came together. Chance of a lifetime, huh? Be well
Agreed! This is lovely!
Wow, an artist that actually does art. 👍🏻
Alphahacker you got that back to front my friend. It’s art made by an artist. 😁
ur dumb
Since when have artists not done art?
Alphahacker what else is an artist supposed to be a foot

I hope you are still living this dream! Your rig is truly awe inspiring, especially the roof deck. Thank you for sharing your bus and experience.

I believe that this is the most beautiful van build i’ve ever seen
4:59 That detachable "frame" for his hammock on top of the van is actually a pretty nice idea
I almost wanted to cry when I saw that table. So beautiful. Powerful energy there for sure.
this is probably the most beautiful and open build i have ever seen, makes me extremely excited to start mine
So cool
Best bus I have ever seen. Work of art.
You’re for real an artist with that table! Very cool!
Honestly I've been researching bus conversations for some years now .....this is one of my absolute favorites I believe simplicity is key
His van is definitely one of the coolest I've ever seen and I love his art so much too
You're van is a piece of art.
Just came across this video and this is one of the nicest looking conversions I have seen
"over coming the voice in your head that says you can't do it".....but you did. beautiful conversion.
Dude. You're an amazing artist! I'm jealous and envious of your way of life. You're living a dream that others have!!!
Seriously cool
Super artiste bravo

This is the best van ever
Definitely one of my favorite shorties so far.
this has to be the best van build ive ever seen
So clean and spacious. 😊
Sometimes you come across a piece of art that you never thought you needed to see, but this is one of those times!

Probably my favorite van life I’ve seen the past five years!
This I must say is REALLY BEAUTIFUL, and love the table.
This home/bus is so original and organic... it's amazing. Owner has great energy. Love it. Thanks for sharing.
I love the table and the sink!
I love the bed set up. It's very nice to be able to walk the length of the bus. I probably would have put a little toilet room in the corner
He and the van are one in that they exhibit the same type of relaxed demeanor. Cool build. 😉😉😉
Absurdly gorgeous build. Impressive. Very unique.
I love how clean you keep It!
The hammocks are a really nice touch 🤙
Sickest bus I've seen so far

One of the most beautiful skoolie builds I've seen! Love the wood work and especially love the deck on top ❤🤙
ask him how he paid for it all and how he pays for his travels. curious to hear how chill his finances are. mommy and daddy?
@@diegooland1261 He's a professional artist...who sells artwork. Did ya wanna order some from him?
@@GTLees are you his agent?
@@diegooland1261 Heh, heh. Nope, but I did hear him say it in the video.
@@Gcanno Call it a BS phobia and there is plenty here
Wow I absolutely love this!!!
Wow this might be the most beautiful conversion I've ever seen
Gorgeous Bus!
I've been living in a class b rv with my buddy for 4 months. It really does get to you, no matter how good of a friend he is. However, it can be the best atmosphere and fun possible. Trust me!
It’s settled. When I get older I’m doing this exact thing.
This was one of the most inspiring “van life” videos I’ve seen
I really love your bus I really do so awesome beautiful
For my personal taste, this is one of the nicest conversions I’ve seen! I love the sink 👍🏻
This is by far the best van/bus tour I’ve ever seen. The woodwork is absolutely stunning!

Truly is a complete work of BEAUTIFUL ART!!!
Love the artwork! Amazing colors. And the school bus is fantastic.
Lovely home!
Your floating table is beautiful.
I love the simplicity combined with the art.
Your use of mason jars is clever as is your bed.
Awesome bus !

This was a brilliant build by a seemingly cool guy. What he said resonated a lot, as did his stylistic sensibilities.
Dude, I've seen dozens of bus conversations, yours is by far, the best I've seen! Except for the bathroom! Lol.
By far, my most favorite conversation ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Looks beautiful
One of my very favorites ever!!!
Geeeez! What creativity! 🥰
