hello from florida

Hello! I just discovered the site within the past few weeks and wanted to welcome myself to the community. I’ve seen pictures of converted school buses since I was a small child and always thought they were very cool; now in college I wanna invest in something that I think will repay me back more than committing to a mortgage or staying stuck in one city. I am ISO a shorter/medium size skoolie in the state of Florida, hopefully with seats taken out but for a great bus I’ll be happy to gut it myself. I’m looking for a 6-9 window long bus, and I’d like to make simple conversions; have a shower and kitchen area and a daybed for guests, but it’s mostly so I can road trip and travel while I have the time to dive into this project. I wanna be as green energy as possible with solar panels and a composting toilet. If anyone has and ideas or suggestions for me please share!
