Summary

I love to discover unique people who embrace an unusual lifestyle. My guests today are a perfect example of such a lifestyle!

Shane and Julie Good live part-time in a converted school bus and part-time in a tiny house that they built themselves. That's impressive.

But, even more interesting...they do it with their seven young children!

Many people let their children get in the way of their adventures. Not the Good family! Their family is fully integrated in everything they do!

Enjoy the interview explaining how they came to this unique lifestyle and what they've learned along the way!
