    It's hard not to be completely in love with the design and construction of this amazing shipping container home. Even more impressive than the home though, is Jaimie and Dave, who pushed through some tremendous challenges to make their dream come true. This is a story about finding joy, even in adversity. We hope you enjoy this weeks video! With love, Bryce & Rasa

      Bryce, what is the required up keep on a medal container home? Do they rust away? Would love to know this. Also, it seems like it would be much cheaper to build the same size home with wood vs buying a container.
      With that said, this is a beautiful property & home.

      Y R, Holding hands is magical. I really like your comment. It reminds me of a couple of other stories that are felt thru touching. My youngest daughter read a book and one chapter was on arguing with your husband/wife. She bought a pair of hand cuffs and talked to her husband on what they could try. Argument came up, they got the cuffs and for one hour were chained together. At the hour mark, her husband made her a bubble bath and bathed her... awwww couple goals!

      Yes! Only one other channel on RUclips I can think of that does that, but they don't focus specifically on tiny houses. They cover all forms of alternative housing. Bryce, however, is a *much* better host in my opinion, and this channel is put together _way_ better than any other channel of it's type. Just seems like they really care about helping people to share their before stories and not just share the Instagram Airbnb IKEA after results.

    One thing that impresses me is that they've been living in the house for three years. In most of the videos, the occupants have spent a short time. I like it that these people have lived there and experienced life there. Also, they are not house bound, but active and outside. That's a real advantage to this type of living. Positive and up beat people, even after much adversity. Good on you.

And best of all he has been absolutely consistent throughout the reviews with this info all delivered in a timely manner that doesn’t drag on or get off track. This channel alone has convinced me to go tiny in the near future. Such a great source of well designed tiny homes at any budget.

      Jijie Forsythe YES!! I absolutely loved that, as well!! That was something I longed for, when I was married! Not much of a surprise that we are no longer together, and that’s just fine! We were married 35 years!! Sad it took me so long to get out! I am extremely happy for this couple!!!

      To me, it looks like he really looks to her as emotional support, he looks anxious and the way he is holding her hand it’s giving him strength and calm. They’ve been through a lot together

      I went through this with my partner. I had a brain injury and some other health complications that often made it hard for me to talk, literally saying words or just trying to say them in the way/order I wanted to. Many conversations we had with other people were things that we had discussed in depth as a couple and so we had little (almost unconscious) queues that indicated when I needed him to do the talking because I couldn't get there on my own. Over the years, as I recovered, that dynamic shifted back to me speaking more for myself as I was able to. Having him as verbal backup really helped deal with the stress of socializing when I was feeling impaired cognitively and physically.

His hard work in overcoming that debilitating experience with the support of his family and therapists is very inspiring. What a truly beautiful couple, and I'm so happy for their achievement in building their wonderful home.

    “You don’t have to go anywhere when this is your home”... so true... once you have a homestead, there’s just no place you’d rather be. Some people just have no idea what that’s like.

      It made me cry, too! What a story! Such an awesome space. Such a miracle. They are such hard workers. Not everyone could do it. I love it. ❤️ I wish my husband could have survived his brain bleed. But I’m so thankful God gave us 45 years together as a team, with many adventures to enjoy. Our last year together turned out to be a grand finale, though we had no idea it would be that. Life is fragile, and it makes a huge difference to have joy in the journey. This couple are such dears. 💕
