This Renovated School Bus May Be Nicer Than Your Apartment

With a lot of elbow grease, the 37′ bus became a house on wheels for the couple, who use it to travel the United States with their dog, Hilde.

The only thing this renovated school bus can’t do is fly. Read on to learn more about its awesome features and the couple’s adventures.

First things first: Why a school bus?

Will and Alyssa wanted to make their own rules. They quit their Silicon Valley tech jobs in 2013 to move to Boulder, Colorado, where they planned on starting a tech consulting company of their own.

One year later, they decided to try working remotely in a big way. They came across the 37′ Bluebird and began converting it into an RV.
