A couple converted an old school bus into a spacious and cool motorhome for off-grid living.
US couple Steve and Alana have been living in their converted short school bus for more than six months.
The bus has just about everything you’d need, including a kitchen, seating area and full-sized bed.
Although it does lack its own bathroom meaning the duo has to make use of public restrooms or the facilities available at the sites where they park.

The old school bus was gutted on the inside
We’ve seen plenty of cool conversions from working vehicles to tiny homes over the years, such as this MAN TGX that became a dinky dwelling complete with balcony, shower, and kitchen area.
Or this former Coca-Cola truck that got a new lease of life as an RV in Australia.
Someone even converted a 70-year-old bread truck into a really swish-looking motorhome.
In a similar vein, Steve Yalo and Alana converted a 2008 Chevy Express 3500 school bus into their very own RV – and it’s surprisingly roomy inside.
The couple enlisted the help of specialist camper conversion company East Coast Campers to transform the bus into an RV.
Outwardly, the motorhome didn’t need too much doing to it; but they did opt to paint it a deep green color and fitted a couple of 200-watt solar panels on the roof.
However, on the inside, the bus was completely gutted and changed into a smart-looking, modern living space.
The DIY RV now has plenty of storage space
The couple decided to keep the original walls and ceiling, which allows them to make the most of numerous magnetic items, such as towel hangers, racks, and even spice jars for cooking. Clever, right?
Most of the interior is kept simple with a black-and-white color scheme.
There’s an L-shaped couch that has cup holders and additional storage underneath. It also doubles up as a workspace, with a table mount with USB and electrical outlets to plug in laptops.
The kitchen has its own sink, which is covered with a chopping board when not in use, a fridge/freezer, a two-burner stove, and plenty of storage space including a large pantry.
The design of the sink, allows the faucet to be turned out of the window creating an outdoor shower.
The bus’s bedroom is large enough for a full-sized bed, as well as some bookshelves and even more storage space.
Do you reckon you could live here?
