Hi all! Ever wanted to live or travel in a school bus?
We are selling our tiny home on wheels.
Fully equipped and ready for off-grid living and an adventurous work/travel lifestyle!
This short school bus was designed and converted by my partner and I, an Australian architect practicing in NYC. It’s a tiny home for one or two adventurous digital nomads and was custom designed and built for efficient and stylish off-grid living. We have been traveling and working in this skoolie for the last 6 months (see the adventure here: @just_the_two_of_bus). We’re moving back to Australia and that is the only reason we are selling our home.
The bus runs perfectly and was in use as a school bus in NYC as recently as the end of 2020, so it passed all Department of Transportation inspections. Since then, we have maintained it rigorously. It’s a tiny home with all the amenities of a big house.
