Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

In the video below from New Jersey Outdoor Adventures, we get to tour the Hudson camper van by Ready. Set. Van. I love the light, airy, contemporary feel of the interior, and the many smart design features they’ve included. For example, the optional belted bench seat that does double duty by folding into a guest bed in a matter of seconds. While it’s perfect for kids, adults will find that it fits them as well by resting their feet on the swiveled driver’s seat.

Alisa and Kevin’s DIY conversion of a 1996 BlueBird school bus, named “Hygge,” beautifully embodies the Danish concept of coziness and contentment. The exterior of the bus is painted off-white and remains largely unchanged, save for some windows replaced with metal panels and the addition of solar panels on the roof. However, the interior transformation is where the magic happens. The couple has designed a bright and inviting living space with white cabinetry and wooden accents, following a “side-by-side” room layout that includes a charming seating area, a functional kitchen with a rolling pantry, a bathroom with a composting toilet and shower, and a cozy bedroom with ample storage.
