We’ve spent the last 8.5 years traveling to over 100 countries. In 2020, we had to take a break from international travel, which, as full-time travelers, forced us to reevaluate what we were going to do with our lives.

So, we decided to buy a converted Sprinter van and start exploring our own backyard by road-tripping around the United States. Living in a van really made us curious about what it was like to live in other unique homes, so from time to time we took a break from our van to try living in vehicles like a converted school bus, Tesla Cybertruck, $1.1M Earthroamer and many others.



We wanted to see what life was like in these more unconventional ways of van life and decide if we really had made the best decision by buying a sprinter van. Fun Fact: when we were first shopping for a van to live in, we almost bought a converted school bus. We ended up buying a Sprinter van instead because we knew it would be easier to move around the way that we wanted to, but the school bus always seemed like a cool idea and stayed in the back of our heads.

When we found a converted school bus to rent on Airbnb, we knew we needed to test it out to get a little taste of the van life, or bus life, that could’ve been and decide if we’d made the right decision. One of the more obvious benefits of the school bus life is how much space it has compared to other vehicles. The bus had a spacious hang-out lounge with a couch that could be converted into a dining room or an extra bed.

In the.
