Bus life is not for me, but I admire Rudy for it. Does he drive it everywhere he goes? I guess I'm curious to understand the driving connection between the American school bus, his home country of The Netherlands, and favorite country Colombia.
Sounds unorthodox and adventurous. Not quite for me though. It depends what amenities you need for work, health and other highly personal needs. My needs are a bit more complex.
Yes, the bus is fun for sure, but it actually takes a lot of work with the maintenance (Rudy is a skilled mechanic), monitoring the electricity, ensuring there's water, figuring out an ecologocial place to "dump," abiding by country vehicle permits, constantly moving because of zoning regulations and paking restrictions....
Yes, he lives in it about half the time, so 25% in the Netherlands driving around to see friends and family and 25% tooling around Europe. I know he's driven it as far as Croatia & Albania. The other half of the year, he travels outside of Europe and just stores the bus.
