Hello from PDX!

Hi Folks,

What a great site this is! I just found out about this forum through the article on oregonlive.com and am really interested and excited to dig a little deeper into converting a bus into a tiny house!

A little more about myself: In 2013, I moved from Cologne, Germany to Portland, Ore. as an international student to study music and the music business. Since I'm here I got interested in the Tiny House movement and thought about alternative ways of living for a while now. So I'm really happy to have found you

Looking forward to explore!

Cheers,
- Anton

Greetings Anton, My bride and I have two buses we are converting. We live in Redmond, which is Central Oregon about 2 hours away from PDX. Glad to have you here.
