    Honest Tips: Bus Conversion Build, Nomadic Finances, Healthy Lifestyle & More...

    We started this whole bus conversion and tiny living journey in 2016 with minimal knowledge of how we were going to accomplish a bus build on our own, or what we would do once we hit the road. Slowly we picked up knowledge, skills and tools over time to create a life trajectory that has continually surprised us, challenged us and provided us with a lot of joy and room to learn.

    Everyone's experience and goals are different, that’s a beautiful thing, but I think what connects us and perhaps what brought you here is a shared desire to live creatively, in a connected, mindful way. Time is an invaluable asset. Design a life you love living.
