30yo Canadian quitting Electrician job to live the Skoolie life with wife & 3yo & dog

Hello everyone so happy I found this forum! Kudos to the admin for how informative this is.
My name is Paul live in Ontario Canada working as an IBEW Electrician for over 10 years and tired of never getting ahead and never getting a vacation. My wife is the one who started us on thinking tiny houses but it didn’t feel right and too many legal issues then we found Skoolies on YouTube and fell in love with this.
We just bought a 2008 Freightliner SAF 72 passenger with Mercedes 7.2L with Allison 2500 and Air ride suspension. We get it delivered July 1st to our build site and new home base we are renting going forward as we are selling our home, most possessions, and trading in our car for a pickup. Bought an old 32’ camper to live in while we finish the bus.
We are so excited I feel like I won the lottery! I thought I would be old and retired before I would be able to see the amazing wonders of North America.
