Escape in a Tricked Out VW Bus

Intrepid travelers are customizing vintage VW buses to serve a mobile houses. Would you consider life on the road in a Volkswagen bus? If so, you can actually purchase the bus in the first photo. If that seems a little hasty, you could just rent a VW bus outfitted with all the essentials...

 
 

Vintage Safari Rentals, will let you rent a VW camper from their Los Angeles location and go can go wherever the wind takes you! (You can even do a one-way Los Angeles to San Francisco rental!)

And that bus for sale? It's being sold by Pat and Ali Schulte, who have used the bus to travel around North America and Europe. They live in the U.K. and are selling the bus for £15,000. If you live anywhere in the U.K., they'll deliver it for free! Before you pack your bags, read about the ups and downs of living in the VW bus on the tiny house blog.

It is my dream to be able to have a small home here in New England then travel around the world road trip style. I don't know if I could do it full time, but I'd spend a summer traveling around in a VW bus in a heartbeat.
