In our quest for seeking out a more healthy and sustainable lifestyle, we made a plan that includes zero waste living, tiny home living and full-time travel. We considered buying an RV, looked at trailers and airstreams but settled on doing a bus conversion for our off-the-grid, tiny house on wheels. We bought a 1996 MCI 102 D3 coach bus and with the Bus Demolition and Interior Shell complete, we turned it into our Tiny Home on Wheels and are now traveling!
Some links are affiliate links and at no cost to you we may get a small commission that will help us cover the cost of travel.

    For some reason it's always easier to go hard on someone else's projects than our own but, thankfully, it's also great motivation to get it in gear for our own too. So much fun working with other bus lifers!! Great video! Can't wait to rejoin the rehabi-tribe!! Lots of love from OK!

    Hi Mela and Don. It was great to see another bus build coming tomorrow. Also passing on knowledge you learnt by trial and error or from friends who taut you. Tray's but is looking good and total different from your one. It's amazing how interiors can look so different at the end.

    Awhh.. I really enjoyed this episode. It brought back some nostalgia of you working through your build. It's cool to see how much you learned through your build and your ability to adapt it to others builds. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to see what enhancements you're going to complete on your own home.

    Hey good people. I'm always eager to hear about Buses visiting Indiana. I have been watching Bus Builds over 5 years, And I haven't seen any of the ones I follow on the road. Actually, I rarely see any conversions here In Indiana at all.... I know some are stealthy, and don't have a lot of markings. But I'm always on the look for them.🤩

    We haven't worked with propane before so Trey's uncle was the one helping him with his propane set up. Sorry I don't have a good answer for you, but we just left that up to them to decide.
