How Tiny Living Drastically Changed My Work Life I Surviving On a Minimal Income

- Many have asked me what I actually do for a living and if I have a job! So in this video I talk about how I completely redesigned my worklife after I moved into my tiny house. Living in a tiny house I have a lot of economic freedom and I can therefore afford to spend my time on things that I feel passionate about.

Once my house sells, ill be quitting my job and drastically changing my life, I'm done with the rat race and will never return to a 9 to 5, I'm 35 years old
I wish you all the best. Im still contemplating
Working on this now, right there with you.
Best of luck! I'm 37 and feel the same.
Check it out first. Its a hell of a lot of work, trust me.
Same here
Many people are trying hard to get out of the rat race including myself. Support to the tiny house living and van life dwellers.👍
More are not being bothered 😕
I have an acre living semi off grid in my Airstream. Join me.
we to, just bought a little farm in norway.... i am going for it now! wish you all the same
But what if he gets hurt or ill ? Does he can provide for himself?
@@vladimirvlad6441 Isolation can be dangerous. A support network is needed.
I absolutely love this, people are finally realising that there is no point in playing a game where the cards are so heavily stacked against you that even those who make it need luck.
This is the best form of protest you can do. Become self sufficient.
Great comment. Sums it up completely.
❤😊👍🏻😎
HOW??
We are taught to consume..consume..consume. We need very little to be happy…I live in Los Angeles..almost everyone in big giant cars. This lifestyle has so many benefits and eliminates so much trash! Thanks for sharing your story.❤
You’re welcome❤️
its damn true! My family lives there and I hate to live LA. .....I live top of a mountain in Spain with my furry friends😻😹😸
He’s just not surviving….he’s thriving! He’s living! Love the dog as well.
You’re living my dream. So happy you found truth and followed your heart. If your work makes you miserable it defeats the purpose of life.
So true!! And Thanks - very kind of you🙏🏻
Wonderful life. Blessings from the UK
TRUE❤❤❤
The last 7 years I learned, you don't need to go tiny to get out of the rat race. You can stop consuming however you live. You can stop wasting money in buying useless things. You can start growing your own food in nearly every garden, even on a balcony. Or you can collect fruits as berries, apples, pears, nuts and so on outside in nature. You can easily get used to need less without building a tiny house or van. It's not the outer form but the inner way you choose. I'm so glad working only 3 days in my "normal" job. Of course I would earn much more money, if I would work fulltime, but why?
Mortgage
Recently I saw a commercial of a training " how to invest money efficiently ", my first thought was that I know the best way... by growing my own veg and fruit garden, which give me return in long and short therm 🙂😉
Love it😊👌
That’s a neat way to invest! I am not into gardening but admire the idea given the astronomical cost of vegetables- how can a tomato cost 1$ and an avocado $2?! I guess none can grow tomatoes- just give them sun & water. Point finale.
There is so much in this video that speaks a truth about like minded people. I think that for me, the biggest frustration I have is that no one in my life understands what I am feeling and my way of looking at life and how I live it. I would like to from a small community where we can share and help one another with our lifestyle.
Totally agree
You are not alone, many of us desire this
Yeah, I Can really relate to that! Many dansih people have that dream too
And so I wonder what is holding people back from doing it. In my case, I am ready to start today, I just don't know where to do it and have been looking at different States (I am in the US) but can't decide.
Dinero es lo que hace falta..@@rvnut1133
That's lifestyle I want also. I am from China and visited Europe 2 times and it changed my mind for living. I bought a piece of land in Hungary and will do pretty much the same like you in the video.😊
Sounds like a much better balance of life than the corporate world. Its also good you mention the importance of community contributing. Off grid / self sufficient doesn't need to mean isolated.
It often takes community to be able to be more self sufficient
You don’t print your own money ?
@@georgewhitehouse8630 So true. It takes a village… planning to make a video on that exact topic
@@georgewhitehouse8630 haha, no not yet. But in my area some people where working on a new local curremcy at some point, but it never took off. The point was to keep money in circulation amongst local businesses to create a more stable local economy.
Always
Fellow dane here, living in NZ where off-grid and alternative ways of living is more common. This is the first time i've seen someone do it in Denmark. So interesting. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Thank you!! I started school in NZ in Palmerston North - say hi to Mrs Watson if you run into her😉Would love to go back❤️
This reminds me of my grandmother. I live in the states and we use to do this. But I use to make fun because I was young. But now I love it.
I immediately started shedding tears when I watched this. After spending 20 years in the rat race, getting fucked over by corporations, friends and partners, severe depression and absolutely no light at the end of the tunnel, this slow living approach is what I crave for.
Just do it.
Ask GOD to help you change your life to a slower, more enjoyable life.
Blessings
It sounds like it! Thank you for sharing! Wish you the best🤞😊
Now am realizing how real life actually is....❤
Wow, glad to hear that!
❤
Love it!... I hope people will start to see the power of being living minimalistic, instead of buying a lot of CRAP! they dont even use in the future... Time freedom is the key to live in peace..
Good for you! So much less stressful. I live out of debt and have a house paid for but relish going tiny...less housework, less stress!
How fortunate that you are able to do this. Peace and blessings in your life.
Fortunate!? 🤣
Everyone can do this. He looks childless like me. Let society rot!!! 😡

Greetings from California (USA) .
My admiration for what you have achieved and you as a human being is immeasurable.
Well done and congratulations. ❤
Wow, so kind. Thank you☺️
Wow, Thank you so much!!☺️
The tiny living lifestyle you've embraced is inspiring, especially your approach to blending work with environmental consciousness! Your journey into self-sufficiency not only enhances personal well-being but also sets a sustainable example for others. 🌿
Interesting story! I totally agree, life off the grid, far from the hustle and bustle of the developed world, is so fulfilling.
I also moved from USA to rural Kenya, not so long ago. And I started a RUclips channel documenting my relocation journey.
@EmmilyTiampati share your channel link or name.
Elderflowers go on to produce elderberries. Elderberries when simmered in a covering of water, then strained and the liquid brought back to the boil with a pound of honey per pint of liquid, makes a wonderful winter remedy that keeps flu away 🙂. When jarred in sterilised jars while still simmering, it will keep for years 🙂. Tastes lovely as well.
Thanks! I actually experimented with different elderflower berry juices - some with Black currant and mint. They turned out pretty well I think!
super inspiring. Thank you for sharing.
did the same in 2019 after working in Manufacturing overseas for 20 years. finally decided to repatriate and build a beach villa in a beautiful windy coastal town famous for kitesurfing & surfing. My property is just 100 m from white beach front, Im working remote full time graveyard shift so I spend 3-4 hours day time outdoors gardening, tending to my chicken coop and my pets and next month looking to build a small piggery to supply local butchery at this small property by the hills that i just bought. So yeah, drastic change from toxic city and corporate living to simple country living may just extend my lifespan and have a better sense of fulfillment.
Thanks for sharing that story! Really sounds like a dream too! Congrats👏😊
Great video and content, thanks for sharing with us!
This was a great video, very inspiring - thank you
I'm envious of your lifestyle. Your timing for moving in, in Spring of 2020 couldn't have been better considering the pandemic. I live in a small, old, rustic, A Frame cottage overlooking a small lake just outside of my hometown in southwestern Nova Scotia. I love it. But I would trade it for an old cabin in the woods in a heartbeat if I only could. Now it's time to start watching your videos from the beginning.
Beautiful video! Thank you brother! All the love and peace to you and all living beings❤️☮️🙏🏻
Hello from Michigan! Loved your video, thanks for explaining how you make it work. Hope to get my own tiny house some time soon
Amazing video! Thank you for sharing. Look forward to seeing your other videos
You’re welcome😊Thanks!
I appreciate so much what you are doing.
Beautiful! May you be happy, healthy and free 🌱
Lovely area … thanks for sharing
Wonderful. Such a harmonious and soulful way of life. It touches my heart. velsigne dig.
I love this. Thank you for sharing and being so real in talking about your feelings as well relating to still wanting human connections.
Wonderful & inspiring…thank you
Excellent summary of exactly what i want to do
At 62 i dont need money but time is running out...
The way you split the three “jobs” is a good way to rationalise how working for yourself can mean looking after yourself / not necessarily owning a small business 🤔
Therefore Two days working on my food garden is essential and not a guilty pleasure.
Exactly! And Thanks!😊
Same here. I'm 61, divorced and my 2 children are about to leave the nest. In less than 2 years I will be retiring and I am now seriously considering on living full time in a Sprinter van I am converting. Time is indeed running out and I want to make the most of what is left because tomorrow it can all be over... ATB from Belgium.
This is peaceful living. If enough people start being self sufficient and not solely rely on corporations for income. Only then the workers can create some sort of leverage.
I'm a hard worker, but these last fews years. I'm overwhelmed with work along personal responsibilities. Then the high cost of living to exist in society. Just working to pay bills, only having small amount of free time.
I have my own plans on being self reliant, thank you for sharing part of your journey. I enjoyed your video, the nature scenery is calming.
so glad i stumbled upon your channel - love your content!
I really enjoyed watching this video. Good job
This video is very inspiring to me when I am not living in my tiny house(12x28) I am living in my DIY truck camper build. I am learning what’s on the land around me and also have planted herbs and a few other things that mostly come back every year. Anxious this year to actually get some organization and plant vegetables also. You are brave to venture out of your normal and allow God’s creation to sustain you. You are right it is hard work, but it’s reward is greater.
Beautiful Haven, glad I found your channel, enjoyed.
Welcome 😊
This video story of your way of life is wonderful. Thank you.
Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing!
Bravo young man. I like the idea of living a simple life in the country but it's not easy. Good luck with your endeavors and l hope you find a nice woman to share your life with.
Very inspiring, I think of the "back to the Earth" intentional communities I visited or stayed at in the 70's. Many of them are still thriving.
I'm from Fiji and I recently went to New Zealand and I got a shock that the cost of living is so high in NZ. Rent bills n all other crap costs. I am a chilli farmer in Fiji I produce n sell n it's my income. We grow our own food. No rent no mortgage. Free life.
As a New Zealander, I always warn people about the high cost of food here. The cost of living is so expensive that people are constantly stressed now.
Inam so happy for you, you've made the right decision for yourself, God bless your journey🙏🏽
You're liviing the best and right way of life . ❤👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
So impressive. Thanks for this video!
You’re welcome!!😊
So glad your page came toy attention. I look forward to seeing lots more and learning so much from you. I have a patch of dirt in my country, Australia, but it doesn't produce wild food like you have. You are so blessed to have so much wild food around you. I am keen to learn from you regarding earning an income from teaching others. ❤
Wonderful clip. It exudes peace and purpose.
I’ve watched this video a dozen times. Idk what it is about it but it feels peaceful. ❤
I have the same coffee grinder as you!
And that dog is such a good companion, I can tell:)
Your house is super cool & your plants are SO green & healthy😊-a very nice job!
This is such a great episode that as well as inspiring is a realistic and practical way to live a rich and rewarding life. Thank you for making and sharing.
Best video i have seen today.
Very calming.
I work 2-10pm Monday-Friday. Love this as I have all morning to do what I want. Love what you are doing and sharing your journey with us. All the best with all your projects.
Great video! Very Impressive. This is what peace and happiness is all about. Kudos!
Thanks☺️
Thanks for your inspiration. I did the move last December it's challenging adjusting but totally worth it, eventually the peace of mind sweeps you.
Wonderful. And what a beautiful companion ❤
It takes courage to live according to our inner calling. Agreed to start patially, getting some income n eventually move into it full pledge. May God bless you with abundant blessings 🙏
Yes, so much hard work, but so well worth it. Nature's rainbow bounty is the kindest and healthiest way to eat. Wild strawberries and raspberries? Yes, please. I really admire how he was able to use his passion to create a living and in doing so helping to educate others as well. I can also appreciate what a grind it can be at times, too. Work is work, after all.
Such a gorgeous and idyllic location and you can't beat a lifestyle filled with healthy eating & movement, a calm and peaceful environment and a good dog by your side. Wishing this young man and his pup a long and happy life together.
Thank you so much! We hope so too😊
Excellent videography, music and editing. Fantastic introduction and fabulous content. Vielen Dank, Anders! Peter
Thank you so much😊
This is an amazing inspiration, thank you for uploading and sharing your journey.
This is the way I want to go too.
The best of luck to you🤞
Greetings from South Florida 🌴. Thank you for sharing your journey. It's awesome to see you living what makes you happy 😊
Thanks!! Really appreciate it😊
Hi Anders, just came across your channel as I’m thinking about moving to a tiny house and living a more nature-connected life. I’ve been a nature lover for all my life. Currently I have a 9 to 5 job, sitting all day in front of a screen…you know what that is. Health comes first so that’s why I need to do something about it. I’m sure your channel and your life experience since you started a healthier life will definitely be inspiring a lot of people, so … I’m joining your community on here from today 🙂🙂🙂. Cheers from Barcelona
I really hope so too! And Thank you so much - you are most welcome here! Wish you all the luck with your own dream!!
this really is a life worth living. thank you for sharing

Well done.
Greetings from Sri Lanka ❤. Continue your good effort. When people have slow life styles they feel as if they are really living . Practice mindfulness in your life adds even more essence to your expected lifestyle .Good Luck bro !
Thank you so much!! Will do - have been practicing😌
Thank you for sharing this awesome video. I really love what you are doing- loving the earth and living with nature, forest garden and achieving self sufficiency, doing incredible planting. Living simply with work-life balance
lovely video! thanks for sharing your new life. Greetings from Argentina, South America.
That's such a cool way of living!
I left the corporate world just 15 days ago with a similar calling, it's wonderful seeing this and how far you've come in just a few years. Thank you for sharing 🖤
Bravo! Very inspiring indeed. You are multi-talented😊
Thanks!!
waooo inspiring video. thanks for sharing.
Very proud of you!
❤ from 🇺🇸 California
Wow, thanks, so kind of you to say!😊
Thanks for the visual treat. I live in crowded, hot and humid South Carolina USA. What a refreshing change is your beautiful country and lifestyle. You are blessed indeed.
SC has lots of affordable land. Move and build tiny in the woods.
S C is my ❤ , but yes, it is getting soooo crowded.I came from Croatia 25 years ago and I looove South. People , food , culture, nature, but is getting so crowded everywhere
@@dennynisevic7848 I agree. Where in SC would you suggest I look for the best land deal? I'm a single disabled vet and can pay cash. It would be nice to find a place with a Yurt already set up since I could never do it myself.
I have lived in SC most of my life. So many damn people everywhere now! I have no idea where they all came from. For a world where the birth rates are plummeting it sure doesn't seem like it to me.
@@richarddharrison2 I mean if you're saying its crowded, hot and humid, maybe go near spartanburg. Should alleviate those things a bit and you stay in the same state.
We just found your channel and look forward to watching your videos and learning more about this great way of life!
Thank you so much!! Enjoy!!😀
I'm so happy for you man!
I have same plan to change my life style and be a part of mother nature as well. Spending time amongst trees is the best a human been can ever get.
Not much time left till im there too, so cheers to the good change brother cheers🎉🎉🎉
In ireland you require planning permission and permit if you want to live in non permanent structure for more than 10days and youll never get the planning per.ission in the country unless youre from there by generations. Ireland has ridiculous laws and then theyre surprised that they have housing crisis.
So true.
I was looking into it few years ago, when I was at a risk of becoming homeless. I was hoping to get a piece of land and put a log cabin or a static caravan on it.
The cost of the land was prohibitive enough - anything between 30-70 grand for a half acre site in my area.
true. it sucks! there's no way out other than to buy a house
It's already backfiring on them
@@valentina47734 what do you mean?
@@JaneWillowMusic Well,they have multiple crisis now. Immigration,homelesness. Greed can never be good. Even Irish can't afford to live outside of their family house.
A nice, quiet life in nature with a good dog, spent walking in the woods, doing mountain man chores seems idyllic. But one thing I still can't figure out after all these like-minded videos.
Where's all these orchestra trees? Just keeps getting curiouser and curiouser 🤔
I really support this kind of living life as peaceful and to be with yourself. More so close to nature🌿🍃🌿🍃 is absolutely wonderful.
Beautiful video, just wow! ❤
Thanks☺️
I've been doing van-life full-time now for about 2 years out of a squaredrop camper I pull behind my car in the states. Tiny Living here still has lots of obstacles....most zoning even in the countryside won't allow tiny homes that don't have their own sewer & running water, electricity. With Van-Life, there are more and more no overnight parking signs for places that used to allow overnight parking.
Have you looked into cal Earth? They build with sandbags. I think their projects are up to California code, and this could be legal other places. Best of luck 🇩🇰
The same here in Denmark! It’s not getting easier, although there are some new regulations that maybe are changing the game now🤞🤞
@@andersboisentinyhouse , thanks for the reply. Hope it gets better & easier for you too.
Matt
@@dortek882 , thanks for the Cal-Earth recommendation. Just checked it out...those earth sandbag homes look awesome.
This just seems like it is not Denmark. The kommune/police will be called even if you build a shed for firewood, NOTHING is allowed in Denmark, how on earth do you do this legally??
Why is it that doing these things are illegal? Maybe he found a loophole. Where I’m from, if you buy the land you can basically do whatever you want. Denmark must be very restrictive.
Is is incredibly restrictive. Probably the most regulated in the western world. He must have found a way yes
It’s true that we are regulated, but it’s not as strict as the picture you paint there - you just need to know how the navigate the rules. We are allowed to build sheds and such without permission up til a certain percentage of your lot, if you register them. You can build a tiny house as a “summer house” in the summer house zone, but then you have to not live there full time during winter, which I don’t. I’m away for appr 9 weeks every winter, staying at friends/family/girlfriend😊
@@andersboisentinyhouse thanks for clearing things up!
@@andersboisentinyhouse Still seems strict I'm curious as to why you can't live their in winter...? What is the basis of the laws....
Amazing project.Great idea to step out of our daily stressful and too much fast-paced environment. Beautiful video. So inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, I’m glad you liked it!!
Inspirational!
Thank you from Melbourne Australia my friend!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful life with us, I also live in a tiny in BC Canada and highly recommend those who are called to find a way to take the leap it's very rewarding. Much gratitude to you.
Thank you for your good, natural, and helpful lifestyle information. I was so surprised when you could your tiny house by yourself.
Amazing 👏 Go for it, your natural and healthy lifestyle. 👏
Thank you for sharing your incredible life. Your dog is gorgeous and very happy.
Thanks😊☀️
