The Home

1998 bus, bought old, stripped by hand. Four years. All in-house — electrical, plumbing, carpentry, solar. What worked, what didn't, what we'd change — documented here.

The structure

City bus, converted. Thermal insulation, raw treated timber, vinyl floor. Fits two humans and one dog without friction.

Power

600W solar, 200Ah lithium, 3000W sine-wave inverter. Fridge, laptop, AC — runs 2-3 days without sun.

Water

200L tank, 12V pump, gas heater. Two-stage filtration. Real autonomy: ~5 days of normal use.

Kitchen & bedroom

3-burner stove, 150L fridge, double sink. Fixed queen bed, storage underneath, cross-ventilation. Built to sleep well and actually cook.
