VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Heidi is a solo female traveling with her pup Porter in her converted DIY skoolie. After losing her job to Covid, she found this rig for $3,600 and put about $11,000 into it before calling it home. She did some smart shopping at Habitat for Humanity to acquire most of the furniture, then made it her own with detailed additions. Her artistic abilities show in the eclectic decor and custom paint, and the snake is the most unique! The upper cabinets in her kitchen are sideways toilet paper dispensers! So clever!

Thank you for taking us on tour of your skoolie home; it's beautiful. The decor is lovely; I love the backsplash in the kitchen, and the wall with the framed pictures, the kitchen colors are fresh and help to provide more light. I like the pullout dining table (awesome idea), and the bathroom, as well as the large kitchen sink. Your home is practical and stylish. The style reminds me of Gucci.

I think it wonderful, that you and your father came together to build this Beautiful bus and the fact that he would get things started and let you finish it. You have very good taste in what looks good and goes together. Maybe download the road, you can incorporate some pull out shelves for your pots and pans, it make it nice so you can get to things without standing on your head, if you know what I mean. It's amazing even with all the items you repurchased, how the cost can climb up there. But it is well worth it, you a Beautiful Home on wheels and it is something to be very proud of!!!!

Hello Marys how are you doing?
I love the look of this, very nicely laid out, well thought out too. That table is amazing. I especially love that you made space for the pictures. When you go on the road, some sacrifices do need to be made, but if there is something you absolutely love, getting rid of it can be horribly detrimental even if it seems minor. It's a case of "You might have a roof, but you lost a home", kind of like that I guess. Keeping those things around that make you feel at home makes a huge difference.
