A YOUNG man has transformed a bus that was previously used to sell marijuana into a luxurious tiny home.
The house-on-wheels is now full of unique features, including something fun hanging up on the back.
Kelly Wakasa is a YouTuber who decided to try tiny home living for himself.
Like others who have experimented with this lifestyle, he decided to convert a bus into a tiny home on wheels.
He shared the entire process in a YouTube vlog for his 1.5 million subscribers.
But Kelly's choice of vehicle was no ordinary bus.
He bought a 2008 GMC short bus that had previously been used to sell weed in Manhattan.
What's more, it had a lot of problems.
The AC, stereo, and electricity were all broken.
Kelly's plan was to convert the bus into a home on wheels that followed his personal motto: "Do what excites."
Aside from the mechanical work, Kelly did the whole conversion himself with the help of his friends.
Amazingly, it took just 30 days of focussed work to totally transform the shabby bus into a luxurious space.
The completed vehcicle could sleep up to six people, plus there was space to hang out, and even study.

VISION CAME TO LIFE

At the back, he installed a basketball hoop – perfect for some street-side hoop-shooting.
After 30 days, the transformation wasn't fully complete, but the YouTuber was proud of the progress he had made so far.
"Obviously, there are still a lot of things to fix, a lot of things to renovate," said Kelly.
"I couldn't be more proud of the hours and hours my friends and I worked on this thing.
"It makes me so proud and I can't believe that my vision has come to life."
OTHER TRANSFORMATIONS
Kelly isn't the only one who has tuned an old bus into a tiny home.
Tiny home veteran Rita revealed how she and her dog live full-time in a 2001 Ford shuttle.
She told fans during a YouTube video: "Whatever gets you out on the road fast enough so that you can adventure and see and do and experience things, don't worry about it being pretty."
Another tiny home fan used a yurt as their economical but cozy house.
And see the company that sells ready-to-go tiny homes for just $15,000.
