Comment on YSK Tempur Mattresses fail quickly and the warranty is fake
kora@sh.itjust.works 6 days agoThat sounds awesome! I am curious about your journey of owning a skoolie. I sometimes daydream about building a similar motor home. Watched too many videos of Steve Wallis these days…
Is it your main residence? If it is, what do you miss the most about owning a regular home? How long did it take you to adjust and finally feel home?

The bus is not my main residence. I live in a place (Philly area) where residence in a motorhome is not really a legal option. I embarked on the skoolie journey without a realistic plan for actually living in it and so far it’s been nothing but a gigantic time and money sink. But it has been fun and I’ve developed a lot of skills (mainly metalworking like welding and riveting) that I didn’t have before. You may enjoy my build thread.
I do hope to someday be able to live in it for a few years at least. We’ll see if that’s possible.

Nice! Plenty to read before bedtime. Thanks for that!
I also build a lot of things, mostly programmable electronics housed by 3D prints. I learned so much on the journey. They are in my case mostly transferrable skills but I don’t care very much because I like it. I see it same as collecting vinyls. It’s fun to build thing without financial motives or external pressure.
Hello from the other side of the world and thanks for the chat and info on your motorhome. Enjoy it! :)
