VIDEO DESCRIPTION:

In this video, Jonathan gives viewers a tour of his school bus conversion, “Home on the HWY,” where he lives full-time with his dog, Skye. Designed for adventure and comfort, this skoolie tour is perfect for those interested in bus life or off-grid living. Jonathan’s focus on thoughtful design and maximizing functionality is evident throughout, and his bus is filled with character, warmth, and practical features for life on the road.

Living Room and Workspace
Jonathan’s living room features a versatile couch that can transform into a daybed, guest bed, or dinette. The standing desk across from the couch doubles as an entertainment center with a pop-up TV for hidden convenience. The entire space benefits from a 20-inch roof raise, giving it an open feel, and is filled with personal artwork and mementos.

Kitchen Design for a Passionate Cook
The kitchen features apartment-sized appliances, including a gas range, oven, and a full-sized fridge, making cooking easy on the road. The quartz countertops are sturdy and aesthetically pleasing, and custom cabinets with soft-close mechanisms help keep everything secure during travel.

Bathroom and Compact Shower
The bathroom includes a compost toilet with a urine diverter to the gray tank, eliminating liquid waste hassle. The shower features a Nebia by Moen showerhead for reduced water use and high pressure. The bathroom vanity adds style with green cabinetry and a concrete vessel sink, giving it a pop of color.

Bedroom Storage Solutions
The raised queen-sized bed offers plenty of under-bed storage, with dresser drawers, a shoe closet, and a wardrobe. Coconut coir helps manage moisture, and the step ladder makes accessing the high bed easy.

Powering Off-Grid Living
The bus has a robust power setup, including 1,200 amp hours of battery storage and 1,200 watts of solar panels. A diesel-powered Rixen’s system provides in-floor heat and hot water, making off-grid living comfortable.

Rooftop Deck and Outdoor Living
Jonathan’s rooftop deck, made from composite decking, serves as a great hangout space for enjoying sunsets and taking in views from wherever he parks. The extruded aluminum frame adds stability, making the deck a perfect feature for off-grid living.

Personal Motivation and Mental Health Journey
Jonathan shares how skoolie living was a way to escape a traditional lifestyle that left him unfulfilled. His journey symbolizes hope and perseverance, with the “keep going” tattoo on his wrist serving as a reminder of his mental health journey. This lifestyle has brought him closer to nature, and the people and places that have become an important part of his adventure.
