I was a full-time carer to my father for nearly 20 years and since he passed away, I have been taking care of mum who has leukemia. I've never really had time to take care of myself. This is something I would really love to do after mum goes, to give myself a chance to heal from the trauma and get healthy again. I don't know if I will have the courage, but seeing other females travelling alone, is encouraging. Best of luck to you. 🥂
Sorry to hear of you loss. I hope that you take to the road and heal whilst travelling. Stay strong.
@@loicleray Will do.💓
❤
There are plenty of female solo travellers out there, you wont be alone.. And I too had a caring role, do your home work, look listen and go for it.. good luck..
Love how Aussie you are....and your sense of humour is awesome...
This girl is amazing. I love her and her bus.
She's pretty cool! Thanks for watching 😀
I absolutely love your bus. Its different than all those fancy new vans. I like the shape, the windows, the paint job.....I love it all! And I think you are very wise to have a toilet, even if you think you will only use it for emergencies.......and the shower....well done! Its just simply perfect. I could drive away with it and not change a thing! Safe travels my dear......and have loads of fun!
I agree! The old bus has character. 😀
Great to see a review with someone actually driving the bus too. Looks great
Thank the lord for those big mirrors!
Gorgeous bus and gorgeous soul!
It's 2years later, how'd you go!?
Got to get myself one of those 'oh god I'm stuck areas' :D really beautiful conversion, love the colour as well!
Haha nothing like a little kit to get you out of trouble areas
Very nice. Aussie girls are always cool. Off road friendly.
I want this - this is exactly what I want as a tiny home not to small not to big - and I love that is built by a fellow Aussie
Its a pretty cool build. Thanks for checking it out 😀
Phil & I have been chatting with her when she was doing her build. She has such a beautiful, well thought-out build! I love it 😍
Awesome job girl.... I'll look out for you on the road...safe travels
Awesome job DAD and GRANDDAD
I really love your individuality in styling, lovely bus. Can I borrow your family when I start my bus? Lolol
That kitchen 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
The best!
this bus is badass
Yes, yes it is.
Love this bus..and great video
Thank you Kelly! She's put a lot of work into it (and a lot of editing for me too 🤣)
Thank you for sharing. Well done Rhiannon! What an inspiration you are 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love your bus, it's REALLY nicely built & straight forward. The security systems & screens are great.
Stay safe on your travels.
She's done a wicked good job!
Nice Bus - Great tour - happy adventures!
What a gorgeous little home looks so very cosy would have loved to live in a van like this when I was younger,.
It's a beauty! Thanks for watching Sheila 😀
No problem it’s one of the nicest I’ve seen in a long time and the fit is fantastic so comfy looking you have a beautiful home xx
love your motorhome. im still working on my toyota coaster, i'm from lithgow nsw
Great looking bus !! Best of luck in your travels
Thanks for sharing love your bus you have done a great job.
Thanks Andrea! I agree, amazing build she did.
this is such a great video, the amount of effort put into it is so good hopefully this channel reaches more people
Thanks Billy! I really appreciate your comment. Feels good 😀
Well done mate, that’s an awesome rig. Gonna pinch a couple of your ideas for mine thanks a bunch
Congratulations on your adventures with your family on your design happy adventures with minty Many blessings to you
Reallly nice job
She's done an awesome job. Thanks for watching the video don't forget to subscribe
😀
She is gorgeous
Breath of fresh air seeing a young Aussie doing something like this! Safe travels and hopefully I might see you on the road in our beautiful country, Josephine at Rockhampton Qld Australia 💚💛💚
Hopefully you guys cross paths. She's hard to miss in that bus! haha
@@loicleray I reckon I'm planning to start tripping around soon with my chihuahua/fox terrier dog.
Hi for your table get a lagun arm and put your table , your design looks amazing
So cool! It’s great to see a video about bus life here in Aus. You mentioned that you don’t stay in caravan parks very much so I wondered where you stay as watching the U.S. van life videos I always wonder how it would translate to travelling around Aus and where you could legally stay for free?
aside from roadside places and reserves where you can stay for free, usually time limited and best if you are self contained, you can stay on people's land..however, there are alot of places you can stay that still cost. Van parks are just one place where you will have to pay to stay.
Great video Rhiannon.The bus looks like a cosy home. I converted several vans in my life (I am 79) and know how much planning goes into the initial stages. Good to see an Aussie conversion.
There will be a few more "Aussie conversions" in the future 😀
@@loicleray Good to hear. There must be plenty of them. Are you making the "AUSSIE VANBUILDS" videos?
@@DutchAussieProductions Yes, that's correct. These videos are my creation(s). 😀
@@loicleray Good news. You now have a new subscriber. I look forward to seeing your other videos.
I absolutely love your beautiful "Mintie", y'all did an excellent job! Sure is a beauty.
Very cool!
Glad you like it 😀
You and your van, are adorable. Did you design it? I can not beam to see things before they are done, or done wrong. Thank you for sharing, and showing your beautiful home..
Love this! I think I want to convert a bus again! So awesome, great video! Happy travels 💜💜
Message me when it’s done. We’ll film it 😉
Way cool, if I see you I'll honk 3 times, safe travels dudette.
very cool!!!!
So much effort!
This is amazing, fresh and best layout !!! I love your comforter, colors and print, would love to find one as that!! Be safe ,God be with you young lady!!!
It's a fresh layout indeed 😀
Great job on your build! I love it the colors are amazing too
Gorgeous home Riannnon 👍💕
Nice, well thought out
Great work,,,,very smart and works. If you head north direct sun heat will be a challenge for you but sure you will over come it. Just an idea install rope rack rail on drivers side so you have the opportunity to add shade sail to it. Having solar that’s portable to will help bc you will pack under trees when you can.
G8 vid with simple ideas and professional finish, well done.
MORE AUSSIE VANS PLEASE. THANKS FOR POSTING. GREAT JOB. I WATCH ALL THE AMERICAN VAN SHOWS, SO ITS GOOD TO SEE AN AUSSIE.
Really cute design. Thank you for sharing. 👍🏻
No worries at all! hope it helped you. 😀
Such a beautiful home. It really looks like its made from the heart. Enjoy your travels. 🤗
Thanks for watching!

Great Aussie girl and a great van and so normal...
Thanks for watching! 😀
What an amazing home! Take care, cheers.
Thanks for watching!
Well done 👍 it looks like you have a great time travelling around.
I love this, it’s seems so homey and well designed. 💜💚💙❤️💛🧡
I agree. You can see a lot of thought went into this build
Great video you look so happy enjoying life.
AWESOME...love it.
Love all of it!!! Where did you get your blinds??? I’m doing a 96 Toyota coaster 🦄💕🙏🏼
Very impressed, well done 😎
glad you like it!
Really enjoyed your video and bus! You give off goid vibes hope to see you around byron bay oneday. Cheers
The vibes are good with this one
What an amazingly well designed and tastefully finished bus you have sister. Absolutely love it. Not only have you saved weight with the cut-outs in your bed base but you have totally avoided incubating the dreaded black mould in and under your mattress as they also function to allow air to circulate and evaporate the bodily moisture we produce at night when we sleep. (Yep ... it's not just sweaty sex that dampens the sheets)
So many earnest bus/van life newbies totally overlook the inevitable mould proliferation problem by installing solid bed bases ... and time and time again I see a lack of commonsense typically manifesting in failing to realise what a big issue mould will become ... sigh. You have, by default, already got that sussed.
The extra space your bus affords compared to say, a Mercedes Sprinter, is incredible. It is a perfect layout In My Humble Opinion ... what a fabulous job you and your family have accomplished. Nice to see what can be achieved with the 'runty-in-comparison to US Schoolie bus' conversions here in the antipodes ... your Mintie is delish.
Heya Liz, it's a pretty cool build indeed! Thanks for watching and commenting 😀
Beautiful bus,love it 🚐🚐
Thanks for watching! 😀
Love it, Akubra essential - Are the curtains home made? also does the security screen hit the glass at all with the curvature? Cheers in advance!
Love your 🚌
absolutely one of a kind , down to earth conversion , kudos to your famaliy for helping , they must love you, 3,000 with 56,000 miles, and you wonder y education is so expensive ,lol.
Yeah this was a wild bargainnnn
Love Minty. Great job.
Wow... It’s a dream home...!!
Perfect!!
Thanks for watching 😀
I spent 28 years in the military and I watch these videos and they make me want something like that RV, but the problem is it's like buying a house everybody's in their twenties and has great credit or family builts it I have no desire for one of the new RVs that look like something Elvis might drive. What I wouldn't do for something like this, Solid there is so much of the United States I haven't seen especially with the virus going on you could really self isolate
Thanks for sharing Wendell. Sorry about your injury. Not easy to manage and process that. I hope you find what you're looking for! Stay safe!
so lovely
Great video!! Really pretty
Wow!!! Your home is beautiful!!!👠🚌👠
She's done a great job!
I love her sense of humour. 😅
She's a funny one! 🤣
Sweet
Glad you like it!
Hey loved this video and your humour. Good on you and family for getting all this together for you. I'm looking at doing something similar for myself, in a nissan civilian, why your vid popped up. Where did you get your mozzie screens made up, or did you do them yourself?
Glad you like my video! I don't think she checks the video often, so it might be worth messaging her on IG if you need answers to those questions.
Love it! im hopefully getting a van next year to do up...very excited.
Nice! Excited to see what you're up to. Send me a message on instagram when you get it so I can follow the build. 😀
Toatally fabbo in every direction .. good onya pilgrim ..😁
She's built an amazing adventure machine!
Wonderful design !! , did you have a problem with roof rust ? , my civillian had insulation in the roof and caused lots of rust , somehow moistute got in the roof cavity
Sorry to hear you had issues... Maybe better to message her directly? Not sure she checks this video.
You need a highway diff if your maxing out at 80, nc civy.
They're not the fastest vehicles... haha
"Here I've got my air-cond and I've just painted it......that was a breeze" Haha 🤣
Classic Aussie commedy for ya! haha
thanks for watching 😀
so good car..
Thanks 😊
Great vid, love it.. happy travels, see you out there.. :-)
Glad you liked it! 😀
What young men in Australia,....could possibly NOT want to meet this woman out for dinner I ask you all? She's tough, sweet, lovely to look at...and would make a great mother in time. Are you kidding? Lovely vid Rhiannon. You're a "choice" pick young adult ahh!
maybe she happy solo few years . not all women need a man. alot solo women camping alone just fine.
ステキだね！ from Japan
Just loved it!
Thank you Dinesh! 😀
Hey Rhiannon,
Great build. Love the old civilians, they don’t get as much credit as Coasters or Rosas.
I have a quick question, do you know how much heavier Mintie is ? And if it impacts your handling or fuel economy much ? Is there lightweight materials you used ?
Cheers
Hope ur travels are still epic.
Chris 👍 🚎
Not sure she'll be checking the comments on this video, but I've popped a link in the description for her instagram. I'm sure she'll answer your questions if you send her a message there. 😀
Hello. Was just wondering how you painted the bus with paint from Bunnings? As I’m looking at painting my coaster
Yo! I don’t know that she checks this out much. You’re probably better off shooting her a message on Instagram. 😊
Good luck with the build!
Oh yeah, baby! You got the groove. Very nice and cozy. Man...I love this bus. Everything is so lovely inside. I don't mind to own one like this. I love the color inside. Very organized too. Love the kitchen by the window. That's amazing! You got everything inside. I prefer living in a bus than an apartment or a house. Wish you the best luck whatever you go on the trip. Smart purchase for $3,000! You got everything you need there. Everything is simple and basic. I can't wait for my van life, but yours is BIGGER! Thumb up! She is very beautiful too and I love her personality. Single? Ha. Just joking.
Hermoso, pero con tantos peligros la verdad mis respetos para ti
I was injured in Iraq so me doing the work is out up the question, and I have no family and being retired I can afford to pay someone to build something like that but it's nice to dream
Very cool.
Does anybody happen to know the name of the song at the start?!
I would add a small bthrm sink 4 teeth brushing and and hand washing....if U only wash your dishes every Couple of days aweek d leave them in the sink... how do U manage those things?🤔
I imagine it would be expensive to run the pipes for another sink. Send Rhiannon a message on Instagram! I'm sure she'd love to answer your questions. 😀
Gorgeous.....cough cough........the bus.
Beautiful Bus, she did an excellent job. P.S. it’s a Bus tour not a Van tour 😊
whaaaaat!! what a bargain!
You'd easy pay double what she did these days!
your so cool .
That's the wrong @eat.play.bus in the description!
Thanks for the heads up. Corrected now
wished bunnings had come to the uk and made a go of it, instead of making a complete fail of it.
Very nice👍🙏
Thanks Roos! glad you like it
What type of blind did you use for the bathroom?
Not exactly sure. If you send her a message on IG I'm sure she'll respond 😀
😍
OMG, Rhiannon your bus is so beautiful........BUT i don't know or if you follow Max and Occy, please, please, please, please, look them up, he has an Australian Shepherd that he has been waiting for to come back from Canada for 10 long,long,long.lonely months. i am 110% you 2 would get on like a house on fire, even as friends......to begin with.Truly i'm not some mad nutcase but just as a favour to me if your not already just look him up. i know he;s having a short hiatus from vlogging but he is the most coolest, authentic, generous, kind hearted etc.etc guy around.By the way this is my Dads account that i use.Max drove from Canada to the base of South America of course with Occy and ex partner who really is very nice, anyhow i digress i am sure you 2 could meet up as he has just finished his second van buildout which is a friggin beauty.SO,so,sorry for rambling.ps i hope your still single, Cheers from Barb in Tweed Heads, just 5 minutes south of QLD Boarder.Happy and safe travels, also anyone else here who agrees please drop us a comment,Happiness and good health to you all.
Thanks! I checked him out. (Not Rhiannon, the maker of the video)
Got more blind spots, then Stevey Wonder?
Ooooft 😆
Do you have Instagram?
She does. It’s in the description of the video 😊
Very nice do you need a special license to drive the bus that size
Pretty sure this is as big as you can get on your "Normal" car license. 😀
Bus 1989? I also build a motorhome from this.
Nice! What layout did you build?
@@loicleray poka, kak vy vas.
here I can not show the photo, but not so beautiful, as long as you like you.

Your a funny girl. Ha! Ha!
"Black out blinds.... which are grey." 🤣
