VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Phyllis and Steve started traveling on vacation with a truck, staying in Airbnbs and hotels. Their tiny home on wheels in a 2003 International with a DT466 engine. This 28ft bus also has a 12" roof raise and a sweet back deck! When building out their DIY skoolie, they left all of the original windows creating a massive airflow that enhances the wide-open layout.
The countertops are stunning with live edge wood, and the decor is unique with a collection of items they've accumulated along their travels. After talking about RVs, bus life entered their lives, and they haven't looked back!

Everything's great except for no shower. I would sacrifice some of that counter space for shower space.
Same here.
I just want to know how they get clean?
Yes, I'm with you guys, love to have a shower add.
I rotally agree with you !
Weren’t all the gyms closed during covid? I see so many of these people saying they go to gyms. No thx, I like my own space.
A 28 footer is my dream size, and I can never find enough videos on them! This was such an awesome tour
Awesome video but I prefer to have a shower as well. You did a beautiful job on this home.
This is a lovely conversion , but for me I can't sacrifice a shower. Everyone is different and everyone who does these renos/conversions do it to what suits them. For this couple it's a lovely space. Good on them for getting out there.👍🏽
I love this bus! The counters are so long and it just makes it feel really open. I like the idea of the two couches and they look pretty comfortable even though they’re storage couches which I’m not a big fan of. And the back of the bus with the deck and underneath was very very clever and it looks Safe even though the propane is underneath. Great job you guys.
I love that last bit especially, that they've said "It's a great day" more times in their skoolie-life than in their sticks-and-bricks-life....I totally get that (I bought a shortie in April and am still converting her, but I've already experienced, several times, that amazing feeling of "oh my gosh, THIS is my life now!"). This is a gorgeous conversion and I can only imagine how much work it took to get it all done. It's truly inspiring and thank you for sharing. P.S. I'm gonna go Follow them now too :-)
Nice build. The only thing is I would have to have a shower. You did a great job. Nice home!
My cousin the hippie!!! Love you 2 it reminds me of those luxury wooden boats
Love your colors. The blues and the beach scene. Just so nice to come home too. Where was your shower. I think I missed it.
Beautiful home! Thanks for sharing it with us.
Love this build, other than no shower. Very spacious and love the counter tops.
I’m building a 33ft bus and man it’s a lot of work.
Your buss conversion is awesome. And I loved you Aussie as well.
I'm in love with your home it's absolutely stunning and yours maybe the first stove burners I've seen like that. Where did you guys purchase from? 🌹🥰
Yess your ceiling is beautiful ❤️🌹
Thank you. We bought her in Johnstown, NY - Don Brown. They are fantastic!
Love Sandy ❤️ A Australian shepherd.
Very nice conversion however I would prefer to have the toilet area enclosed for privacy.
What about a shower? I didn't see anywhere to bathe.
I'm guessing they either have a outdoor shower or they turn the sink faucet around out the window use as the showerhead that way they can stand outside using it as the shower that's my best guess. It works but I would rather have a small space for shower and toilet inside even if its just a wet bath. Other then the bathroom situation I love the build it's look very nice and comfy...
@@UnKnown-zy1km I totally agree with you I'm assuming that they have a gym membership my other concern is I cannot understand why bathrooms are so close to the kitchen and especially when they don't have a door.
Did I miss something or was there a door on the bathroom?!?
@@chrisrhule1760 I did not see one however I did see a composting homemade toilet.
Love your space, but where is the bathroom?
I love it. It is so cozy and homey.
It's beautiful inside and out
Really nice and airy! Feels homely too!! Would need a shower myself, but apart from that....I am very jealous! Lol! (Kisses).
Hello from Michigan wow I absolutely love your business very beautiful thank you for sharing your story
Hey I think your Skoolie Bus home looked really great ❤ Happy Traveling 👋
Wow!!! Your home is beautiful!!!👠🚌👠
Thank you!
Just saw the bathroom, Sorry, thought that it was all a closet. Very nice!
Beautiful van build, But I cannot living in a bus without shower!!! How did you guys shower daily?
Very nice - enjoy!
You both are living LARGE!!!!!!!!!
I use to work at the International plant that made the DT466 "The Legend" just saying lol. Very nice build!
Beautiful setup 👌
Love your home especially the crates behind the stove and sink.
Hi! This is Phyllis, my husband and I are apparently the stinky couple. 😂. We started our build thinking we needed a shower but after living in her we realized that showers were very accessible. We belong to planet fitness and 24 hour fitness. Part of our journey has been to challenge ourselves to stay as active as possible. We are motivated to workout for the shower after. Also they have showers at state parks, RV parks, etc. Once in a while we are off grid and we shower outside of our bus with outdoor shower we should have featured. It’s been the same with our bathroom. Our expectations and our reality living in Sandy has been so different. I promise we shower often.
They aren’t stinky!!! I can vouch for these two!
lol glad you cleared that up Phyllis, we were a little concerned 😁😁but seriously ain't nobody's business. Love your home and that counter top is gorgeous...Greetings from the beautiful island of Barbados 🇧🇧🇧🇧
VERY NICE BUILD!?? LESS IS MORE!!!
PRETTY COOL 😎
I Really like this!

I am 45 years old with very little set aside for retirement at this point. I have always been curious about the stock market and have witnessed some people who played the game right and retired early because they used the stock market. When I ask them, most said that they invested very little to start with, but their portfolio grew. I do have a significant amount of capital that is required to start up but I have no idea what strategies and direction I need to approach to help me make decent returns
@shagua Xiao Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again
@@idellameyer7411 Please, could you pass along your analyst contact info?
@@millyk5685 The consultant that guides and assist me is *Julia Renee Lindberg* you can check her out online and reach out to her through her website to book an appointment.
@@idellameyer7411 Thanks for sharing, just looked up the broker you mentioned on google and I'm super impressed with her credentials. I will be writing her an email shortly
@@millyk5685 you're 45 or 65?
I'm amazed at the comments asking about the "bathroom". She already explained the toilet situation (they have one--8:38 mark) and also the shower situation. Do people not know about showers in gyms and truck stops and campgrounds and state parks? 🙄
Thank you! We should have spoken about it more but it has been such a non issue that I didn’t think to. Showers are so easy to come by.
Such a lovely, well put together home. Great job. Are there plenty of public places to shower when you want?
Yes there are
No shower now a days is a no go I think. There was plenty of space to put one.
Great build very well packaged and comfortable,but I would have taken some of the long work top and incorporated a bathroom with toilet,I know you said it was not used as it should have been ,but there is nothing more refreshing than just popping in a shower if just to freshen up,not being critical here but just to separate the bed from the main living space my wife and I would have had some White floaty nets ,but that's my opinion only.Thanks for showing us your home.
How do you shower ???
We go to the gym, state parks, RV park and we have outdoor shower. We should have spoken about this.
Nice bus but no shower is not something I could do. Less counter to allow for a shower would be better in my opinion, or just a longer bus all together.
Need a shower 🚿 but the bus is absolutely beautiful
Love your bus! Where did you find the seashell/ sand dollar fabric for your couches?
That is just ....... sweet 👍
What do you do about bathing?
Ditto!! I'd have to have shower
It's really cute,but I couldn't do without a shower.
Nice
Looks like 26 and a half feet based on having 9 windows. 10 windows makes 28 1/2 or 29 ft depending on the bus model. For example, a Blue Bird TC2000 with 10 windows is 28 1/2 feet, but a Thomas Saf T Liner with 10 windows is 29 1/2 or even 30 feet. Nice setup though.
I don't know how people can build a nice bus and not incorporate a shower. That would be the first thing
Especially if you can't always get somewhere to wash your body. Maybe some people like going for days without a bath.
Lol. I only take a shower once a week and I live in a sticks-and-bricks. There are other ways to stay clean in between. Believe it or not, but people used to go that long back in the day--before the advent of commercials and companies pushing products onto us. It's actually detrimental to the friendly bacteria and the natural oils that live on our skin to constantly wash it away. When you shower every day, it forces your body to make even more sebum, which can lead to an over production of it.
No shower would end it for me!
Beautiful home, but where is your shower and toilet?
Nice but no shower . I think the kitchen could be smaller to have a shower .
How do they shower????
Where do you shower?
Gente cadê banheiro com ducha. E a geladeira a máquina de lavar cadê a secadora enfim.
How do you shower 🚿?
No shower / toilet ?
They have a toilet
What is a gray tank????
A gray tank is just our sink water. A black tank is when you flush a toilet and has human waste.
You all are retired? What about camping spots,do you go off grid?😎
We do go off grid often. I do still work virtually my husband has retired.
Y u up
You really didn't show the cabinets and you never showed the bathroom
Is there no bathroom or did I just miss it?
A bathroom with a toilet but no shower. They took out the shower.
@@eleanoraquitaine2966 So how do they shower?
@@lovelygivan1442 They didn't say.
Just a toilet.
Lol we really should have addressed this. We belong to planet fitness and 24 hour fitness and shower there. It keeps us motivated to hit the gym. Plus RV parks and state parks have great showers.
You need a budget of at least $ 40 000 a year to keep that thing existing around.
28 foot and no shower??
did I miss a bathroom?
@8:06. ..no shower .. storage space
@8:37. toilet ..
I've watched a lot of these conversations and I am still amazed
Such a big bus with a lot of space, but no shower and a mini- toilet, that can only be used with the door open. In my opinion the big kitchen is wasted space.
Honestly, I would have agreed going into our build but after living in her full time our view is very different. We shower at the gym (belong to 2 large chain gyms) state parks and rv parks. We also have an outdoor shower we should have featured. I love our big living space and happily shower elsewhere.
what on Earth did you mean by you thought the people would be "less inclusive"...? Really? Too conservative, libertarian, free thinkers? Not enough "wokesters and Gender Studies graduates maybe?
Hi. What I meant is living in a bus we thought we would not be as connected to family and friends because of our constant travel. We realized that we have formed stronger connections. Perhaps I said this incorrectly but there was nothing negative meant.
How do you shower??
