Travel-mad with an eye for design, Brandon, Ashley and their three children moved into a converted school bus in October 2016. They spent four months travelling the Pacific Northwest, including spending almost an entire month at Disneyland – lucky kids!

The kitchen is a tight squeeze, with limited prep and cooking space and no dishwasher, which has led to an entirely new set of rules. Dishes are washed as soon as they're finished with and put back in their allotted spot. Overall, kitchenware fits into just six drawers in total, with high shelves and utensil pots used for any overflow.

The children sleep in bunk beds and don't have a toy-chest (gasp). Instead, their communal playthings are kept in the shared storage space and their favourites stay in their bedroom. Ashley has explained to disapproving internet trolls that the children don't need tons of toys they don't play with. Instead, they have a few they value, and mostly play outside in nature.

Sam and Emma are travel bloggers, exploring the world in their cozy renovated horsebox, Rosie. When the pair aren't on the road, their equestrian-themed home is parked on a farm in the UK countryside.

The couple renovated the horsebox themselves, using reclaimed materials including pallets and old scaffolding boards. They insulated the space, added running water, a little kitchen, and a bathroom. For the cold winter nights, it's also fitted out with a handy wood-burner.

Sam and Emma have made the most of the space, fitting clever cabinets, under-sofa storage, and high shelves to keep books and pictures on. Artfully strung fairy lights along the ceiling add to the horsebox's romantic feel. On sunnier days they can also utilize their yard on the farm, which has a dining table and plenty of space for barbecues.

With the pair expecting twins, there've been ongoing renovations and additions to make space for their growing family. But they're still keen to stick to the tiny house ethos by keeping clutter to a minimum and making the most of space-saving techniques.

Kiwi vloggers Goose and Ellen recorded the entire process of renovating their tiny house, created from an old Aussie school bus. Dubbed 'The Jah Bus', the pair pulled out the interior and stripped the vehicle back to its bare bones to rebuild it as a modern and cosy home. 

All in all the project took around two years to complete, and the couple traveled around Australia with their two cats from July 2018, but have since sold The Jah Bus. They returned to their home of New Zealand, got married, and began a whole new adventure converting a van into another stylish home on wheels.

The conversion is fitted with clever storage solutions including a dedicated area above the cab for luggage, five drawers under the kitchen counters and ample space to store food and drink, as well as a wine rack – an essential, of course!

While the interior is cosy and compact inside, a clever awning adds extra space whatever the weather. With a V8 engine, George is a delight to drive and when he's not travelling the country, he can be found parked up in Norfolk. And why's he called George? Well, his owners reckon he just 'looks like one'. Find out more about George at Quirky Campers.

Back in 2015, the couple bought a 2000 Orion V retired Denver City Bus aiming to convert it into a "spacious 300-ish square foot home on wheels". They spent a long time sketching and planning how to best use the space as a family, and vlogged a lot of their early trials and tribulations over on their YouTube channel.

For the family blog and vlogs, not to mention Scott's work, there's a dedicated workspace on the bus in the form of this multi-screen nook. 

Adventurous Mike Hudson set about converting a rusty 10-year-old LVD van into a cosy home with no previous experience of #vanlife. He had a simple plan: 1. quit job, 2. convert van, 3. travel.  And lo, he's spent the past three years travelling around the UK and Europe in his cute tiny home. He's even written a book about the journey.

Next came the sofa and a writing desk, while hooks to accommodate a hammock were also fitted. The space was transformed into a snug and stylish home on the road.

The build was a massive challenge. Mike says: "I never made a project like this before. I went wrong many times. But I'd already quit my job, moved out of my house and got rid of loads of stuff. I had to make it work." That's the kind of dedication we like to hear. Find out more about Mike's adventures on his blog.

Surfer Rich, of Vanalog Vibes, spent two months turning his old transit van into a tiny slice of paradise with his girlfriend. The pair took their tiny home on wheels around California, hitting the surf havens and pristine beaches as they went along. One of the smallest tiny house vehicles we've seen, it took just two months to convert the old van into an adorable living space.

The tiny kitchen includes a 12-volt, energy-saving fridge and a small gas cooker, as well as running water. The double bed sits widthways across the van, with the back door opening to reveal the views of the ocean in the morning.

Storage is minimal but highly organised – shelves for clothes are carefully fitted along the side of the bed. Inset into the opposite side of the bed frame is storage for extra food, water supplies, hiking gear and other bits and pieces that would generally live in a garage. The surfboards sit on the roof.

The pair started their adventure in San Diego County. Talking about their first few nights on the road, Rich said: "As far as living out of the van goes we've managed to blend in among the many vans scattering the quiet side streets, only to all rise the next morning and migrate to the nearest beachside parking to check the surf." Sounds pretty perfect to us.

The couple spent two years doing up 'Fern the Bus', which they now take on long adventures around America, sticking to their ethos: "Travel, spontaneity, stability, comfort, freedom, balance."  

The finished project is stunning – a completely self-sufficient home on wheels. They added another traveller to their party in 2018, with the birth of their son.
