Meet Kermit the Bus — "Kermie" your calm, cosy, handcrafted tiny home on wheels. Lovingly converted from a 2009 Nissan Civilian, Kermie is a 7 m self-contained motorhome with a warm, boho-inspired interior and plenty of space to unwind. Light, bright, and full of charm — blending natural textures, earthy tones, and that relaxed, slow-travel feel. Inside, you’ll find a beautifully finished timber benchtop and Murphy-style table, soft neutral décor, and woven touches that make the space feel like a peaceful studio apartment on wheels. The fixed double bed means no nightly pack-up, and the sofa area doubles as a dining nook, with a removable table for meals, board games, or morning coffee with a view. Kermie’s kitchen includes a gas cooktop, sink with running water, fridge, storage, and all the essentials to cook comfortably on the road. Fully self-contained — with a toilet, cold shower, and generous storage — so you can enjoy freedom camping or extended road trips with ease. With large windows, light-filled corners, and calm boho styling throughout, Kermie is perfect for solo travellers or couples who love slow travel, simple comforts, and a touch of personality. Note: There are two seatbelts only, so he’s best suited for two travellers. Whether you’re chasing beaches, lakes, or quiet mountain views, Kermit the Bus is your gentle companion for the journey — reliable, grounding, and full of character.
