Jessie Lipskin, a 30-year-old woman from New York, grew completely exhausted with her stressful career in the fast-paced world of finance [00:00:00]. Instead of paying exorbitant rent for a tiny Manhattan apartment, she decided to radically change her lifestyle [00:00:12].
One day, while casually browsing listings on eBay, she stumbled across an incredibly unique opportunity [00:00:38]. Feeling exceptionally lucky, Jessie ended up being the winning bidder, purchasing a retired 1966 GMC Commuter Greyhound bus for just $7,000 [00:00:44].
The most shocking part of this crazy impulse purchase was that the young woman didn’t even possess a driver’s license at the time [00:00:54]. However, as a vegan, she was deeply inspired to pursue a sustainable, eco-friendly life after watching the documentary “Garbage Warrior” [00:01:24].
Fascinatingly, this vehicle was the exact identical model driven by Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock in the iconic 90s Hollywood blockbuster Speed [00:02:34]. When Jessie first stepped inside, the bus had been stripped down to its bare bones, leaving nothing but a handful of old seats [00:02:52].
Over the next three years, the young lady poured immense blood, sweat, and tears into this ambitious project [00:04:29]. She hired local carpenter Mike Slater, who meticulously crafted the custom woodwork, closets, and beautiful kitchen countertops for her new place [00:03:50].
