The Pavilion!

It is a delight to be able to host you aboard The Magic Bus! I hope you love it as much as I do and that you have a wonderful time visiting Storia Vale!

Get ready to enjoy your stay in the cozy little Magic Bus! Otherwise known as “Bernie” (Legend tells that the original creator who turned this vehicle into a cabin was named Bernie <3), the bus is a converted 1989 Blue Bird school bus (The same age as me! the owner Tor! ). It started its life as a tiny home on wheels in the Vancouver area. For a time the bus was then used as a mobile tattoo studio. After that, Bernie graduated to being the full time residence for a summer camp handyman who worked at a camp which provided subsidized summer camp experiences for underprivileged kids.

When the buss’ time at the summer camp was coming to a close, I discovered him for sale and Bernie was transported to Storia Vale to start his next chapter as a unique tiny home stay!

It is a privilege and a joy to be able to host guests in this wonderful little space! I myself, your host, spent several months through the winter of 2024 - 2025 living in the Magic Bus full time. I hope you find this space to be as warm and magical as I have :)
