Mobile home converted from an old bus.
Some dream of adventure, lying on the couch in front of the TV, while others sell an apartment, buy a bus and hit the road. This is exactly what one married couple did when they converted an old school bus into a comfortable mobile home..
Old school bus turned into a comfortable home.
Alyssa Pelletier and Will Hitchcock are one of those couples who dared to live on wheels. The couple sold the house and bought a school bus, and then made a cozy home out of it with their own hands. All furniture is made of natural wood.
Cozy kitchen equipped right on the old school bus.
The kitchenette has everything you need to prepare a meal. To keep the ceiling panel from getting wet while the stove was in operation, Will covered it with a thin sheet of stainless steel. Now, after the cooking process stops, moisture and grease from the ceiling are simply wiped off with a rag. In addition, a fan is installed nearby, which acts as an exhaust.
A married couple converted the bus into a mobile home.
Since the spouses work remotely, along the windows they equipped a wooden panel with two computers for themselves.
Each time, before starting the engine, Alice and Will remove everything that can fly off and break while driving: they pack the monitors, close the lockers with latches, fix the grate on the stove.
Mini-bedroom on the bus.
The bus cost the spouses $ 5,500. They spent another $ 2000 on its maintenance. After that, it was necessary to install plumbing, electricity, equip the bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, sheathe all this with insulation, install solar panels. All this cost the spouses $ 30,000.
Compost toilet and makeshift shower on the bus.
School bus converted into a camper.
The only drawback of this dwelling is the fact that it is not insulated, so in the winter months it will not be possible to use it as a dwelling, since the plumbing may become unusable. Therefore, the spouses will have to spend the cold season in another house. This can be, for example, a cozy house with an area of only 35 sq. meters.
