Your statement about not needing a break, rather needing to get better is something that EVERYone should take to heart. You didn't give in to frustration instead you simply got better. You are actually an inspiration and whoever is lucky enough to catch your eye will be one lucky individual.

I just bought my first bus today. This is absolutely inspirational! Thank you !

You may have bought a bus, but you built a home. You climbed learning curve after learning curve, and were brave enough to show the world how it's done. I was lucky enough to be here for most of it, and am so impressed with the drive and tenacity that you show while accomplishing your vison. Congrats, Emma!

@@EmmaBuildsBirbie , you’re so welcome. We love you

So we've watched you do an amazing job on this bus. Don't forget to bring us along on the adventure.

This was such a great compilation, Emma -- just so impressive in how you've grown as a person and how you've build your own home!!! Amazing!!!!! And your home is so, so pretty, too. Now, forgive your Virtual Grandma, but this comes from someone who remembers cassette tapes, VCRs, and dial-up internet. Please find a way to save this video, and maybe your entire build series, so that you will be able to have it over time in a way that you can hold it in your hand. Time change, technology will advance. Who knows where KZread will be years from now? And your grandchildren will need to see this!!! It's an important family record as well as a testimony to a remarkable young woman who deserves so much respect!! So proud of you, Virtual Granddaughter!!! You are simply the best!!!!! God bless you. Oh, and cute boy in the black schoolie. Make sure he can cook. LOL

Having missed many of the earlier episodes, this was fun to watch. What a huge, impressive project to complete.

Seriously though, hats off to you for doing all of that. From starting off not knowing how to use a drill to having. Fully converted bus. 👏👏👏

There is so much I want to say. I had forgotten I have been following you since the beginning - when you bought your bus. Wow!! A long time. Also I love how far you have came in your skills. Wow. Watching the first part and seeing you struggle to the last as you just know what to do. I love watching you and look forward to more. Xoxo

Talk about a labor of love. It may have been your 1st build, but the results look like they were done by a seasoned professional.

So many memories! I remember all of them because I and many others were there with you(virtually)! Let's see what kind of trouble you can get into next LOL!!

I love watching how you took your mistakes and are learning from them and you've gotten better and better at scribing and other stuff as well. Now it's time to just sit back and enjoy the bus!

Great time lapse. Your exuberant sense of accomplishment and joy, in the last video, stuck with me. Amazing seeing how happy Birbie makes you ! Congrats. Keep up the awesome work

I think you've done an amazing job on making your home on wheels

So proud!! You ROCK!!

Been watching since nearly the beginning of this journey, it's been quite the ride. Proud of how far you've come Emma, many others might have given up but you've stuck with it. Here's to the journey still to come.

Building memories right along with you Emma! I'm smiling. 😁😉👋👍

I've been watching you for 2 years now and it's amazing how you've grown more confident and how wonderful your bus has turned out Emma. You've done so well and I've loved watching you the whole way.

Отважная! Много-много лайков!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍Главное в таких долгосрочных проектах не перегореть

Best time of the month

Great job, 😊and I've watched nearly all of it! Can't wait to see what's to come next! Have fun, and this Grandma sends lots of love, and I am so proud of all your hard work!

The comments she makes sounds like something my granddaughter would say. ❤

I remember you just showed up one day on my feed, I thought oh why not see what’s going on here. I had to go back and watch the first 2 episodes first. I kept thinking no way she can do most of this alone. Each episode you could see your confidence building, just like your home on wheels. Each week I’d think , nope, not going to work but you proved me wrong. I’ve been involved in some form of construction most of my long life. Emma, what you’ve done is amazing. You should be extremely proud of yourself. The build was great, but your personality is mostly what kept me watching every week. Why you don’t have more followers is beyond me. Safe travels.

I watched the video, I think You did a great job. I have also learned to never tell a person they can not do a job, I let them do it because it brings out there creative side that they did not knew they had. You did a great job and should be very proud of it.

💚 I began watching when you started to paint the bus n it was so much fun watching your determination. Thanx for the memories.

❤ this shows YOU how much of a CHAMPION you are. This is something to be PROUD OF. You rock, Emma, keep on going, keep bringing us travel videos now. We'll done!❤

It sure brings back memories Emma. All the good times you gave us the last years. And still give that’s the best part 😝. Enjoy your trip. Greetings from 🇳🇱.

I always underestimate these bus conversions to be 6 months or so. Prob false confidence in my skills with carpentry, plumbing, electrical and mechanicals - but seriously, 2.5 years makes sense and is a reasonable timeline for most. The experience was clearly life changing for you - as it would be for anybody. Too bad more young people can’t afford this kind of project, as it would be great for personal development across the board. Maybe it should be a high school course?

This video is incredible. YOU made this home. As well as filming it for two years and then putting this comp together. I hope I see you on the road some time.

Coming from a Old Veteran you are totally a Bad Ass Woman. Do it!

i love how you can also see how Winston grows up during it

A wonderful journey, glad you share it 😊

Thank you so much for all the Friday nights!!!!! I had just started living in my Van again and your vlogs brought so much comfort to the process. I wasn't building shit but watching your transformation gave me confidence to rise to my own challenge. I'm so glad you shared it all! BLESSED ✌🏻

Been following since month 2. It’s been an inspiration to us as we build our bus but the most enjoyable part has been watching you and your confidence grow. ☺️

I’ve been with you since the first month. I enjoyed highlights of the memories you’ve made.

What an incredible journey!! You should be so proud!!

Nice work on this recap. Looking forward to seeing you go exploring. Happy Trails

Saw you on Joe & Emmalees live from the bus fair. Hope you had fun!

It's been awhile since I watched your videos ever since you left the states. All I have to say is wow she did a wonderful job

GREAT work honey! I just got a bus, and landed on your videos. 💪😎🇺🇲🏆🏆🏆

Great video, I enjoyed the build.

Been watching since you started

Wow! You did a fantastic build👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Your determination is impressive, very inspiring

woah thats so cool! i love the whole vibe, enjoy your bus life!

I am really impressed. Great work!

Absolutely well done!

Hi Emma, great work and progress! Can’t wait to see finished bus. Take care 🙏🏽💛🇨🇱

I've watched you build your bus from day one and it came out awesome you did an excellent job

hard to believe I've been following you, and the Birbie', for 2 years. It has been a blast :)

I've been following you for awhile - you rock! Your can-do attitude is inspiring. Will be purchasing my own bus for conversion in the near future, in part due to sharing your own experience

Oh it looks so so good🎉

Respect, you did a great job 👍🏻

Wow. You've really come a long way. Congrats!

Emma you did a beautiful job I have been watching you for every episode and I know you would run across the finish line with flower power.

Very very impressive!! You are amazing… good job!!

I'm waiting to see what the bus looks like when it's finished.😊

At about the 6:55 time marker you said "What have I done" Well I might say you have done an Absolutely Wonderful job, sure it took time and you had wonderful help and idle time to get those creative juices flowing but BIRBIE has emerged. I bet if you put seats back in the bus everyone would rather ride on your bus than an orangie-yellow behemoth. Great Job Thanks for sharing and safe travels.

You, and your life, are so incredably beautiful.

Awesome job!🎉

You are AMAZING.... what a great job you did mostly by yourself.... Excellent my friend!

Wow you are awesome !! Be safe out there !

Im knew to the channel, I have to just say I've watched a lot of home building vans and bus, acutal homes ect, though it has never been as satisfying as watching you complete that all by yourself and it turned out beautiful and fantastic ❤ i loved it

Very beautiful done ! Congrats !

Killer job Love the videos keep them coming thanks for all the hard work.

Great job of video documentation as well. Thanks.

What a beautiful job! You should feel very proud that you did this!!! I wish I had done this when I was your age :) Go enjoy yourself and always be careful!

Well you should be very proud of yourself you did awesome

Love it so far, love to see the tour ❤

Great work 😊

Great job on the conversion. Watching from Ontario. 🇨🇦

I forgot about all the wasps, and how tiny the dog was for a short while lol. Back when I was giving all sorts of building advice even though I knew by the time you saw it you had already figured it out. I knew you had it when you cut that floor piece out correctly. Great to be here on the journey with you, thanks for sharing it.

It looks very good to me so don't keep saying how bad it is looking. You only have to please yourself and I will say for little to no experience you're doing a fine job. Planning appears well done.

Beautiful job sweetie enjoy in safety and good health 🎉
