The life of a bus-dwelling digital nomad! Working

The life of a bus-dwelling digital nomad! Working over breakfast at the @crackerbarrel whose parking lot you spent the night in!

I’m new to this whole #skoolie lifestyle, but so far one of my favorite things is using @harvesthosts to find interesting pleaces to stop for the night on the way to my destinations.
So far I’ve stayed at a winery, three farms and now a distillery, all in Tennessee.
This is the first night of my first winter as a snowbird and I’m spending the night at @oldglorydistillingco. I did a little tasting of their whiskey, bourbon, gin, vodka and moonshine. But the best thing was a cocktail they called a Breakfast Old Fashioned. It was bourbon, cold brew coffee, maple syrup and I don’t remember what else, but it was delicious!
I also met two couples who are also staying here through Harvest Hosts. Tomorrow I’ll head a bit farther south and east on my way to spend most of the winter in Florida.

Finally taking some time to hang some art in the bus! Here’s a little collection of art from four friends and one artist I discovered through @thejealouscurator.
I don’t buy art because it matches my decor, but these are the colors I’ve been drawn to lately!

The whole reason I wanted a deck was to have a nice secure place to carry my bike. Now I have a place for the bike, huge storage box underneath, a nice big generator and a place to sit!

When you think you’ll just take a minute to put a few things in a cabinet and then everything is pulled out of everywhere!!

This is the cleanest and most organized the bus has been yet… it lasted about a day. But keep an eye out on @tinyhometours in the (maybe) near future for the Doodlebus!!

The best parts of #skoolielife include, but are not limited to, beautiful scenery, meeting awesome new people like Robert at @campchet (great campground I found through @harvesthosts) and farm fresh eggs and honey soap from Camp Chet’s shop!

This morning’s office looks like this because:
1. It’s 30 degrees out
2. It’s 41 degrees inside
3. I didn’t pay attention to the altitude and temperature it would be in the mountains in Whitfield, TN.
4. I didn’t prepare properly for weather this cold and don’t have the right clothes.
5. Didn’t spring for electricity at my campsite so I could run more than one heater. So currently my bedroom is the only place that gets some heat, but nearly enough!
I have a LOT to learn!

Finally! 10 months after buying the bus, 6 months

Finally! 10 months after buying the bus, 6 months after getting it back and thinking it was “done,” 3 months after finding new awesome people to complete the job — I am finally on the road!
I’m heading to @skoolieswarm in the Smokies and breaking up the 350 mile trip into three days. Last night I stayed at @beanscreekwinery, where I enjoyed a wine tasting in the bus while I did some work. Today I’m headed to @tnmtnfarm to spend the night with some cows, pigs and goats. Both locations found through @harvesthosts!
The good news, the only issues on my first real trip were one drawer sliding out and one broken item. The sad news, the broken item was my custom made snow globe. My own fault for not securing her better. ☹️But a great trip so far!
