Well I hope you haven't let go of your Bus dream. I live in a camper and its amazing, its so peaceful. And don't let anyone tell you its stupid, they only say its stupid cause they want to do the same. Im free from debt. I pay no rent, I pay no electric. All I do is travel with friends and work and save my money to one day buy property to live on for the rest of my days. Simple dreams are some of the most powerful.
You're hawt... but anyway I to desire to live a simple life but my plan is living in an earthen home in the woods. Already working on making it happen. I love being in nature and hate that I must live in an apartment. Good luck and best of wishes.
I used to fix school buses for a living and I think your dream has a lot of challenges to it. School buses break all the time and many of the things that break are probably beyond your skill to fix. Then you'll be stuck in the middle of nowhere. And those things are ice boxes in the winter. The floor is just a sheet of plywood with no insulation. The walls are sheet aluminum with a bit of insulation, and a steel support structure which will conduct your heat out to the world in no time.
2. In the summer they are like prison hot boxes. Most of them don't have air conditioning. And any bus you're likely to afford will be a rattle trap that's just months away from a breakdown. They attract attention from police who will inspect and impound your bus if there are any safety issues.
A better idea would be a travel trailer and an older pickup truck to pull it. They're cheaper to fix, better on fuel (especially if it's diesel). School buses get about 3 miles per gallon.
She mentioned the price of 3600. If she buys a bus for 3600 it will be a pile of junk with no air conditioning and will break down at the worst times. An insane amount of work will need to be done to it before it can be lived in.
If however she ditches that dream and goes with an old 5th wheel trailer and a pickup truck to pull it, it will be ready to live in right away and the price will be about the same.
I just did a craigs list search and found an awesome little 5th wheel trailer that's all setup to live in for 4700. With further searches it's likely that one could be found for 3600 and it would be a heck of a lot more comfortable to live in than a school bus.
Now that I have my condo paid off, I'm saving up for about 10 acres of rural real estate. I might pickup a 5th wheel as well. I already have a truck to pull it with.
Why don't you build a celtic roundhouse? Have a nice weather proof wall around it with a thatched roof. Have your fire pit in the center, or get an old wood stove with a smoke stack. It'd be a lot warmer than a tipi.
Its possible. but as for finding an selling shiny rocks an things. Id say that a MAJOR flaw in your plan as there are almost no hippie types to buy them.
@nappyted Why didn't you just move where it's not so cold? Also try a catalytic heater the ceramic kind. I trade the service security gaurd on construction, or storage sites.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hippie fags fix ur teeth and nobody would want to buy fuckin rocks and crystals u freakin retard ur ignorant and ur going to screw urself cause ur going to run out of money and die in a fucking bus ur stupid
Well, here it is almost 3 years later, how far along are your plans? How did that work out, getting people to buy your glass jars and stuff or make paypal donations? Just think, if you hustled at waitressing, home-errands like cleaning, cooking, laundry and yardwork for elder people in exchange for room and board while you work a daily job or a couple part-time jobs, house painting, clerking or whatever, you could have saved $10K in no time, bought your bus & fixed it up, be using it already.
No gonephishin, she hasnt abandoned the dream, whats actually happened in the past year since she commented was, she got a job on a mushroom farm that pays 23 bucks a day and she found she had the 3600 in just over 22 weeks, and they all lived happily ever after ,,,,,,,, phoooaaaaaghh
reality check... youd need serious solar and lots of batterys, a humidifier draws serious amps and it would have to run all the time. a solar set up that could handle this kind of draw would cost her three time what the bus cost. I lived at 10,000 ft in my bus for 10 months and saw temps reach -30. I had 110v and a1500w heater and it ran 24-7. I never saw temps over 57 inside. the problem is the ice that it turns into. it actually bent the sheet metal. and tore welds.
@nappytedd -- Right-on with the hassle of parking, especially in lowland towns & northern Cal, but if you're ingenuous, determined & sly you can still do it. Sometimes ask around for a free or cheap rural/farm place to camp in exchange for errands, helping around the place, while you work a local job for funds to get back on the road. I've done it too. BTW: I wouldn't think of roughing-it without a woodstove, which deals with condensation VERY well, besides deadfall wood is always available.
finnally some one with a clue . ahhh a wood stove would have made all the diff for me. but you are right in everything you said. parking gets easier the longer you stay in one place, as long as they like you. I was able to plug in at a new found friends house in trade for favors. my motto is "the less you take the more others will give." I.E. don't be a sponge or ask for hand outs. most people thought I was a bum at first untill they saw that I held a job and would not take help from anyone.
HEY there is a bus for sale on Ebay that would fitexactly what you want. unless you are one of those woman that has to decorate everything to your liking. Look up camping bus on ebay it is a old ford.BUT HAS A @ SPEED REAR END so it will save you on milage. and it is about 1600 bucks at this time
3600 is not a lot of money, You could just get a job. I know that is a crazy idea but it wouldn't take that long to save 3600. Then everyone can keep there money to buy there own bus rather than pay for yours.
I love your blue bus dream. I live in a blue biodiesel bus and just made a video tribute to alternative energy, biodiesel, and solar living. Check it out at my channel.
I'm livin it and have been for 2 years. Yes, its a different way of life. Bought a short bus that was already converted and made some changes to suit me. Am going to utube it soon. I actually never camped in my entire life! I now find the simpler way of life is an extrodinary one. Wouldnt trade the experience for anything on earth. My very best to you!
This is a great idea. I cant believe how much we have in common. I feel like I am watching the female version of my self. Very kewl. Maybe I will get a blue bus also and we can start a peace movement. Easier said than done for me but it's nice to imagine. Keep up the good work. PeAcE
I really like that you lived in a Tipi and maintained a very simple way of life. I also want to leave Babylon. I want to join a commune/ecovillage and live in a yurt, or a cob round house with a living roof.
When I was 12 years old my IQ was 141, I studied premed Cum Laude. In high school I was a straight A+ student! I speak many languages. I own my own house. Do you know why? Because I drop out from the University in 1986, Tuned in to improve my EQ!!!! And I am a Proud hippie. I am Happy with my house, but being rich is having a beautiful RICH soul!
What you really want is a compact pick-up truck with a cap on it. Back in the 90's I lived in a number of US cities out of the back of my Chevy S-10 and it went smooth. It's a optical iiiusion, people are like, "no way someone is living in there" and you could park almost anywhere. A Hippy school-bus would be a cop magnet. Living in your vehicle is a cool way to go until you have to take a dump in a plastic bag at 2 oclock in the morning hunched over like a Great Dane in a chiuwauas wire box.
Our idea was to make it hippie inside and sort of church bus outside...
Less conspicuous that way ;)
Even with biodiesel it will be pretty spendy to travel a whole hell of a lot in a bus/cop magnet. So there will probably be a lot of parking with short stints of travel.
we lived in our school bus for 4 years in some of the best parts of town - parking under cable lines, you can even get cable tv without paying for it. yeah, a pickup truck is less noticeable - but living in a bus is out of this world~ and worth the effort to find places to park
I was searching for an entirely different video and thought this was pretty neat of a dream. But embarassing yourself on front of many others for just cash? I wouldn't do that but you do what you must for dreams to become reality. Keep up the good work and dreams for the more power you have with dreams the more you can change the world, it's people like you who might save our planet while i hope to save todays kids so they all grow to be intelligent kids so our world won't be choas. 5 Star Vid!
sale to the right person...but, don't ask for a handout...I didn't do it that way..I have sold cars,sewed for the U.S. ski team..grin and once finding our land, us digging our own well, creating a gorgeous organic garden..24 herb boxes..collecting mushrooms for 30 plus years and doing photography ...have fun, but don't beg for help.
Thanks for the comment sundogs2, and I appreciate your sharing your story. But to be fair, I am doing a lot of work to make my dream come true, and I'm not asking for handouts. If someone happens to be willing and generous, fine, as I feel I would donate to a similar cause if I had cash to do so.
I am simply using these videos to promote my jewelry, art, and other things that I am selling.
I loved Emo Emily, that is what got me in to you, and I think you are a very funny and creative film maker, and you are quite a lovely girl I might add. Keep up the good work!!!
If you are trying to refer to Mr. Kaczynski, I'll have you know that he was at one time a noted college professor. Which proves that just because you have an education, and a good job, doesn't mean that you are a good person. It's doesn't mean that you are sane either.Kaczynski
When I was 12 years old my IQ was 141, I studied premed Cum Laude. I high school I was a straight A+ student! I speak many languages. I own my own house.

...and lastly, if someone were to send me $23 I would make a video for them, this isn't just me offering to goof off on camera... this also extend to bands who want music videos made, or filmmakers who want some editing help.
and you pay for your internet+electricty+what not with our money? cool man, and no, you dont have a job, otherwise you wouldnt be making videos of yourself asking for our money, you stupid fken hippy, get a job. better yet go eat 20 tabs of acid, put yourself out of misery.
I love this idea! I actually had a friend at the tech support call center I used to work for who did something similar. He didn't make it eco-friendly, but he retrofitted it to live in.
Why do I get the impression you don't have health insurance or a day care center on the the blue bus? Peace would be great if only someone could convince everyone to give it a chance. Nevertheless, I am, optimistically pesimistacally yours, but resigned from all psychadellic substances and recommending the same for anyone who would rather rust that burn out. MH PS Have you seen "Kenya" or "Kitty Cat Dance" ? Peace Out, and don't feed the UFO's.
No, there is no insurance plan, or even pregnancy leave for those who want the school bus life!
I know a family of four, including two lil ones under 5, who live in a big pink school bus named Floyd. They are part of the reason why this dream is so strong. They are one of the happiest, closest, most balanced familes I know!
Living in a space that small really puts you in perspective!
..and I dont' feed the UFOs, I just signal them with my lighter.
Ok, so I owned a trailer and it sat on a rented lot in a mobile home park in 98 and 99 and i turned it from a rundown dump to a pretty cool pad. The cost was a little more than 3 grand and there was a little red tape, and it had no engine and went nowhere and if it were a bus and not a trailer they would have towed it, but I surely appreciate the true value of dreams is priceless and this period of my life is truely unforgetable. You'll never know what you can do until you try! Go for It!
It would be cheaper to fly to Australia and spend the summer in Nimbin in a hippie commune. It is really beautiful. Anyway, blessings from Earth +++ The Saint +++
no , thnx for sharing a dream you are cool not me!!! I unfortunatly can't live my dream because I don't live in the US so...its not going to come true
Very cool, I wish you the best of luck! I am a little jealous, I did some long road trips back in the day, miss that freedom. I will check out the website, best wishes, Tom.
Hi Steph, I tried to check out the site, it's not working for me, I just get a page of html text. I am down with the 23 bucks, but I don't use paypal, if you have a place I can send a money order to, let me know:) Dig the channel, you are cool, be well, Tom.
Very cool, I kind of blitzed your videos the other day, and really liked what I saw. Tis the Christmas season and all, something will be coming your way. Best of luck with everything:)Tom.
I would like to brew my owm biodiesel... for now though I know people who make it so it's available in the area.
Older engine types can be started on diesel, then run on pure strained veggie oil, then flush with diesel again before you stop the engine. So there is no actual refining neccessary. This is what I am hoping for.
I think your website is broken. The index file does not appear to have the correct file extension (the part of the name after the dot). I think it should be index.htm or index.html. Currently it does not appear to have an extension so it is not displaying properly.
hey ^_^ I think this sounds great, if you're in south orange county, ca in the next six months, or around harrisburg, pa pretty much anytime past 10 months from now, hit me up and I'll buy you dinner and pay for a tank of gas. best of wishes
you got me thinking, and I know musicians all over the country, so I'm thinking about getting a basement rv and converting it a studio on wheels so I could do some traveling and collaborate with other musicians along the way
Last time I seen a 9/11 dollar bill was in the cranberries Glades in West Virginia on the 4th of July. I love camping with 20,000 other people :) when watching for Nick at Nite. :)
Wow, I've always want to try to live like you have been doing. I wish I could donate some money but I'm pretty much broke. However once I get some money I'll be more than willing to try and make your dream come true.
Here's an idea! How about instead of doing this pathetic, online panhandling, you pick yourself up off of your campsite in the dirt and... I don't know... GET A JOB!? And it better be a short-bus model you want, because you're clearly a retard with nothing valuable to contribute!
I have a 40ft MCI9 bus conversion, waaay better then a cheese wagon. You can just live with me PEACE!

Because I drop out from the University in 1986, Tuned in to improve my EQ!!!! And I am a Proud hippie. I am Happy with my house, but being rich is having a beautiful RICH soul!

What you really want is a compact pick-up truck with a cap on it. Back in the 90's I lived in a number of US cities out of the back of my Chevy S-10 and it went smooth. It's a optical iiiusion, people are like, "no way someone is living in there" and you could park almost anywhere. A Hippy school-bus would be a cop magnet. Living in your vehicle is a cool way to go until you have to take a dump in a plastic bag at 2 oclock in the morning hunched over like a Great Dane in a chiuwauas wire box.

Great visual...
lol
Thanks for the love.
Our idea was to make it hippie inside and sort of church bus outside...
Less conspicuous that way ;)
Even with biodiesel it will be pretty spendy to travel a whole hell of a lot in a bus/cop magnet. So there will probably be a lot of parking with short stints of travel.
lyrialzander 3 years ago
having a hippie bus would b pretty sweet, besides bein' a cop magnet and all... Definately would b good for those long "Trips"
with friends, and how awesome would it be to drive around and see the country?! Reminds me of Easy Rider...Livin the dream! \m/ Peace.

we lived in our school bus for 4 years in some of the best parts of town - parking under cable lines, you can even get cable tv without paying for it. yeah, a pickup truck is less noticeable - but living in a bus is out of this world~ and worth the effort to find places to park

I was searching for an entirely different video and thought this was pretty neat of a dream. But embarassing yourself on front of many others for just cash? I wouldn't do that but you do what you must for dreams to become reality. Keep up the good work and dreams for the more power you have with dreams the more you can change the world, it's people like you who might save our planet while i hope to save todays kids so they all grow to be intelligent kids so our world won't be choas. 5 Star Vid!

Thanks for the comment sundogs2, and I appreciate your sharing your story. But to be fair, I am doing a lot of work to make my dream come true, and I'm not asking for handouts. If someone happens to be willing and generous, fine, as I feel I would donate to a similar cause if I had cash to do so.
I am simply using these videos to promote my jewelry, art, and other things that I am selling.
I'm not begging for handouts. I'm promoting.

If you are trying to refer to Mr. Kaczynski, I'll have you know that he was at one time a noted college professor. Which proves that just because you have an education, and a good job, doesn't mean that you are a good person. It's doesn't mean that you are sane either.Kaczynski

20 tabs of acid!?
Now there's a money maker!
My fiance is a carpenter, with a real job to pay the bills with.
This venture is just to raise EXTRA cash for the bus that we can't yet afford BECAUSE of the bill paying.
I never promote giving me money for NOTHING.
I am SELLING things on my website.
Jewelry, art prints, eBay items, etc.
If people want to donate money, kewl.
But I am offering goods & services.
This is just my way of promoting them.

I have a job... it's called annoying haters.
I'm a professional hater annoyer.
And you're right, we're not sleeping in the tipi currently...not since early December when the snow hit hard.
We got a small trailer that we are going the strip the appliances out of the put in the bus once it is purchased.
...and it's wireless internet.
I hooked it up myself. In addition to being a hater annoyer I'm also freelance tech support for other needy hippies.

Why do I get the impression you don't have health insurance or a day care center on the the blue bus? Peace would be great if only someone could convince everyone to give it a chance. Nevertheless, I am, optimistically pesimistacally yours, but resigned from all psychadellic substances and recommending the same for anyone who would rather rust that burn out. MH PS Have you seen "Kenya" or "Kitty Cat Dance" ? Peace Out, and don't feed the UFO's.
1musichombre 4 years ago
LMAO!
No, there is no insurance plan, or even pregnancy leave for those who want the school bus life!
I know a family of four, including two lil ones under 5, who live in a big pink school bus named Floyd. They are part of the reason why this dream is so strong. They are one of the happiest, closest, most balanced familes I know!
Living in a space that small really puts you in perspective!
..and I dont' feed the UFOs, I just signal them with my lighter.
lyrialzander 4 years ago
Ok, so I owned a trailer and it sat on a rented lot in a mobile home park in 98 and 99 and i turned it from a rundown dump to a pretty cool pad. The cost was a little more than 3 grand and there was a little red tape, and it had no engine and went nowhere and if it were a bus and not a trailer they would have towed it, but I surely appreciate the true value of dreams is priceless and this period of my life is truely unforgetable. You'll never know what you can do until you try! Go for It!

Interesting project! Are you planning on brewing your own bio-diesel?
blackturtleus 4 years ago
I would like to brew my owm biodiesel... for now though I know people who make it so it's available in the area.
Older engine types can be started on diesel, then run on pure strained veggie oil, then flush with diesel again before you stop the engine. So there is no actual refining neccessary. This is what I am hoping for.
Thanks for the comment.
Keep watching for updates :D

I think your website is broken. The index file does not appear to have the correct file extension (the part of the name after the dot). I think it should be index.htm or index.html. Currently it does not appear to have an extension so it is not displaying properly.
