Wow, the video on the tiny homes connected with a sunroom sounds amazing! It's great to see the creative ways people are finding to make the most of their living spaces. By the way, have you heard about the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series? It's a versatile and powerful backup power solution that's perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and RV lovers like us. It has an impressive capacity, fast recharging, and even waterproof technology. Definitely worth considering for your outdoor adventures!
When she talked about her electric toilet, she said something about having nothing left but aish. Well, that's how she said it! I'm presuming she was talking about ash, as the residue of the toilet system after incineration?
FANTASTIC ❤
You have a very beautiful tiny house. It is 2 tiny houses put together.
She is a great narrator too.
She must be a really good person. Her landlord agreed to this arrangement, her ex left her everything, says a lot about her.
What happens if for whatever reason the land she is sitting on changes hands, gets passed down whatever? And what happens to everything when she is gone? Not my business of course, but it would worry me.🤔
..or the exact opposite
@@dollbabe2did you notice that her tiny home(s) and such are still all mobile? Worst case scenario, she's still able to pack it up and move to another plot if needed.
@@FailWithMe of course she could move it all,but she would have to plan ahead and have a site purchased and prepped, probably more legal work also. I wish her many happy years in her home.
That’s a weird statement😂 Since when do good people get given things?
I love the house, the sunroom, the timber... but I love the spirit of the person behind it. Christina has so much humanity in her soul, in her work as a companion to end-of-life patients and a kind soul who considered her buddy's welfare in the design. She's a sun to others and it's not surprising the sunroom is her favorite.
Thank you so much. It was fun, stressful and grew a lot of patience
Seattle Tiny House people are the BEST.
AMANDA Was the coordinator at first and we put things together one picture at a time when item at a time and it all came together I highly recommend working with Seattle Tiny Homes . They’re like family.
Thank you 💜. I like to pay the kindness that I have experienced in years past when I needed a hand up or a break and I’d like to pay that forward, 💜. This Tiny House living is so peaceful and relaxing. Life is good
I found this to be so wonderful. Truly blessed. I have been looking at tomy homes for awhile. The sun room made it so grand. It would be my bery favorite part of the home. It would take a financial miracle for me to have something thos wonderful. God bless you. I truly am excited that you are living your dream.
This original comment is perfect. Totally second this
Agree 💯
As a caregiver myself, and someone with some health issues, I resonate 100% with what she’s saying about thinking about her “end of life”.
Indeed. Good planning 😊
it's just sense. xxx
Me too! I’m a caregiver too, and as a result, I’m purposely planning my end of life.
@@yaakovina Being a caregiver brings many things into perspective, doesn’t it? ❤️
What are your tips for people, who might miss to think about certain things?
She seems like a wonderful person. I hope she gets to live a long, relatively pain-free life in her "dream."
Thank you 🙏💜🙏
Dear Christina...what a bright light you are....keep shining! Love your whole set up and think you are awesome for including your buddy in the plan. Very cute pups, too. Thanks for sharing your dream.
Yes
Just WoW🎉.
Well done to you and Dan.
Two connected, yet separate privacy when one wishes.
Life is beautiful.
Brilliant...
just cabin elegant.
I'm happy because you're happy. 🎉
I had to giggle a bit when she said i didn't know if i could live in 336 ft. She's not, she's got that lovely sunroom and porches. I could live in just that sunroom with all that natural light and ambience. At 65 I am looking for something similar and she has given me ideas for additional space. Bless her landlord for listening to her ideas and seeing her vision. Thanks for inspiring us with this lovely video.
Thank you, my TH is 336,sq ft
Sunroom is 192 sq ft
Porches are 96 sq ft ea
So 720 and it easy living.
Hope you find a path for building your 💜
@@chrism4757 Thank you. I've been traveling abroad for 5 years on just my SS and moving back to the US is just not affordable without doing something like this. I've struggled for the past 10 years with some health issues and understand the importance of creating the right accomodations. I wish you Happy Holidays and good health.
Yes, her tiny home is one of the best I've seen! I absolutely love the sun room and porch addition. The woods around them, the nature, it's beautiful. I've dreamt of living this way for a long time! I have bipolar disorder and living in the city my whole life has not helped! I get so depressed! I always feel better when I'm out in nature weather it's the woods, a lake, the beach, somewhere beautiful and natural and a body of water always really helps!
What is the upkeep on the sunroof like? I would love to do something like that, but I would just be worried about cleaning/weathering?
Other than that, it's beautiful! And similar to what we are trying to build for our family of 4. ❤❤❤
This is the best tiny house setup I've ever seen
To say I'm wowed is almost an understatement. This two home configuration is absolutely amazing, but so is she!
💗✨
Completely unconventional, yet still utterly practical! Christina truly was & is blessed to be able to have created her dream, but it took spirit as well to have advocated so strongly for herself! She's marvelous!
💯agree!
I absolutely love the design! The sunroom is a wonderful idea! Plus she has her best friend right next door! Probably my favorite tiny house. Christina, you have a fantastic personality! So smart to plan out your end of life so you aren't making difficult decisions at the last minute. God bless you ❤
You’re so kind. Thank you 💜
What a fantastic arrangement! I love the way the porches enhance the living portions of the compound. Kudos to her vision and the builders for bringing it to life. May she have many happy years there. ❤
Yes! I love to use porches to expand the living area and create little areas where you can sit and have quiet time or enjoy the sunset or just enjoy my dogs
My son died from complications of MS at a young age. As a life-long rescuer, I always advise animal lovers to make arrangements for their animals in case something happens to you.
you can donate your pacemaker to a dog.
I too have Primary Progressive MS. It sucks. I understand about wanting a tiny house
Hi, oh yes, you are right. My 2 babies are 12 and 8. These are my last unless I decide to get another when I’m done traveling
I would get a Senior rescue ,
I love how she is enthusiastic but also very realistic. Thinking about devastating progress of the conditions, but make it as enjoyable as she can is so brave and smart. The big sunroom that looks like they’re directly in the woods is fantastic.
Not only is she a nice, kind and sweet woman but she has great ideas! Her sun room, the layout of her kitchen and her other decorating skills made this my favorite tiny home!
@deemeelee6129 *sunroom 🙂
You’re just adorable, friend- I’m a retired cardiac nurse who would live in a tiny home in a heartbeat! Actually, our cabin Up North isn’t much bigger than both of your homes- My husband and I are living our lives as a continuing adventure as we always have done- age is just a number and we don’t let it define us, as we are in our early sixties but still quite active- May God shower you and your roommate with his blessings as you enjoy your wonderful outdoor-like living spaces - You have such a unique and beautiful area to enjoy nature 🌲
Thank you. I can see my tiny house is adorable and it’s so easy to live in. I hope you and your husband can find something that works perfect for you.
It is daunting to think of living and only 3 to 5 to 700 ft.² but it’s very very doable💜
I rarely comment on videos, but my goodness, this was an amazing watch. Christina is such a warm spirit. I love how proud she is of her home and all the detail put into every inch. I plan on building my own tiny home. When I do, I will definitely incorporate an outdoor living/porch space such as this. It's so unique!! I will always think of this beautiful woman. I wish her well.
I love everything about this tiny house, including the dogs 🤩
Same!! Those dogs are beautiful ❤
She's a beautiful soul that has been blessed. She still cares about others and knows the long road ahead of her, and chooses to deal with it holistically and as natural as she can by surrounding herself with her best friend and this beautiful home. Her choice to heal herself naturally, I feel, is always the best choice. May God continue to bless her in her journey through the remainder of her life.
The way you looked out for Dan is a blessing.You are a good hearted person and your home is BEAUTIFUL
This tour made me unexpectedly emotional. I love everything about this from the design, her ingenuity, relationships, outlook, way of dealing with health issues, capacity for compassion and thoughtful consideration for herself and others and the absolute love for nature, weather, trees, the stars….. ❤ I relate a lot. Truly lovely to watch this episode and am inspired and touched. 🙏🏼
Oh my Thank you, I do love the world around me💜
Bless you 🙏
🙏🏼💕☺️
What a special spectacular lady w a home to match!! God Bless yoy!!❤
I know I didn't want it to end. I was living vicariously through her for those minutes. ❤
Tiny houses has never been my thing until I saw this house here. This house is so spacious with that sunroom. It makes all the difference in the world, but even the bedroom upstairs is so spacious This house is beautiful and if I should ever have to get a tiny house I want one just like this, thank you for sharing ❤️
Thank you for watching
You can contact Seattle Tiny Homes for the Tiny House designs
First of all what a lovley lady Christina is she has a great attitude. Love how this tiny home was designed, Very nice that she has her fishing buddie 's tiny attatched to her's always great to have company. Love the design of her side of the tiny its lovley and thought out for her need's very cool with a tub in her athroom , nice right kitchen and hall. love the timber. love the two deck's her space is so comfy cozy. . I wish her a long life so she may continue to enjoy what she has created , god bless her and her sweet dog. Ontario Canada
We had the best time with Christina! She’s such a sweet, thoughtful lady and her whole setup reflects that 💗
*attached 🙂
@suezaple4950 *attached *hers *lovely *needs *bathroom *decks *God 🙂
What a lovely space she’s created. I mean, her lounge/sun room is as big as my apartment so I’m not sure I’d call it a tiny home lol, but she’s certainly thought outside the box and it came out great. She seems like a very sweet lady
These tiny house people always seem so much happier and more proud of their homes than people who have several giant mansions. ❤
We are, A simpler life helps bring contentment 💜
Wow, you are so right about that. I've noticed that too.
I just lost my mom this year, and I have MS, so I have been looking into tiny homes and prefab
This is the EXACT reason I am here being inspired by Christina. She has articulated many of the reasons I am looking into something like this. I, too, want to be comfortable at end of life if my MS progresses. Thank you SO much for sharing with us and being an inspiration. May your blessings continue to overflow!
Sorry to hear about your Mom. Good luck on your MS journey and we're so glad you found inspiration in this video! Thanks for watching!
Love this set up. I just forwarded the video to my best friend because it would be the perfect set up for us. And she is so smart about planning for her end of life plan. After taking care of my mother, I realized so many people don't realize everything that needs to be considered as you age.
So true!
Can you give some hints? Societies are aging and it could make life easier for everyone, if certain topics are covered, but maybe we don't think about it.
There are so many things… but here are just a few I have run across. Build things that take little to no maintenance. My house for example has very little wood to paint or have to replace in 20 years when I am 80. I live in the desert so wood, paint, don’t last long. I’ve built mainly with concrete, glass and metal.
I have designed the floor plan to accommodate a walker or wheel chair if need be. I’m designing my garden spaces for this consideration as well. I’ve also tried to design it to use as little utilities as possible. So when I do have a fixed income I’ll be more likely be able to afford to heat and cool. These are just a few things, hope they help.
@@denisesmith209Smart!!
My favorite tiny home, and favorite person interviewed about her tiny home, I think, ever...
Chris is the best! We had such a fun time with her❤️
I was saying the same thing to myself... Yes Yes, completely agree 💖
Incinolet toilets aren't by any means new but are rarely featured modern tiny homes. They have been my first choice for decades. Thrilled to see them in this well designed duplex with communal space.
This is so awesome, she needs to sell the plans, many of us would also call this the best tiny house set up we have seen. And I love that she looked out for her friend, family comes in many forms, many not directly related by dna, so sweet. 💕
Seattle Tiny House has these plans, Hope you go for it🙏💜
@chrism4757 You are truly blessed, and it is wonderful that you share it with others. Thank you for allowing this video; this outdoorsy vibe is MY ideal end-of-life space too. (except for the loft bedroom; bad hips make crawling impossible)
Love everything about this home…mostly because of the owner….her foresight & planning and her tenacity in caring for her own health (via all the research that must go into holistic health management). Clearly she has a capacity to love & care for others in a big way. And, lastly…planning for your own end-of-life is truly a “duty” we so often completely ignore. So…Bravo! Watching this video has been a blessing for me for many reasons.
Blush.☺️ Thank you❣️. I am treating my MS Naturally and ones environment is extremely critical to your mental and physical health so I made a happy place☺️
@chrism4757 You made an awesome "happy place." I, too, love being out in nature, but have a chronic health condition that keeps me indoors most of my days. It really does increase my depression and isolation. Your home design is amazing! Thank you for sharing it with everyone. Wishing you many more years of happy independence.❤🙏
Love the sunroom and cedar. Crocheting, sewing, learning to knit, reading my Bible, and just daydreaming. What else? Naps! Love the sunroom! At 75 am always cold. You are smart. Have fun. 😊
Lovely person and she has the cutest little family she's put together. She's able to spread such joy into the world.
I really like the communal space connecting both tiny homes! I also love her optimism. Praying for her healing.🙏🏾
After seeing so many tiny house videos over many years. this one is for sure one of my favorites. just wonderful. X
Thank you 💜🙏
Wow, thank you! 🥰
I love her story and best of all she had a husband that made sure at the end she is taking care of her making sure she had something to help her financially. Oh my gosh, not too many ex-husband do that he must’ve been a wonderful man. And he really cared about her.
Seriously! 😅
Thank you, you are right 💜.
A great guy
What a beautiful oasis to live in! The planning and design of not just the house, but the reasons FOR the house, make this one of my favorite tiny homes. It's clear you're a light to the world, Christina -- and I hope you have many, many happy years to live in your "dream" spot!
This woman deserves a best life has to offer. For her to give care to others for their end of life is the work of angels. God bless her! 🙏🏼🇺🇸💕
I luv the tiny home living and also have MS so knowing that there's companies that help with disabilities is awesome. What a great space
Kudos to you, Christina, for a) working w/ your landlord to get not only what you want, but what you need; b) planning for what you want your end of life to look like - it's the one experience everyone on earth shares, but so few people want to discuss; c) having a wonderful and trusted roommate; and last but not least, d) you are living life on your terms! Brava! Inspirational!
I love everything in this video. The character, the sunroom, the decision she made in making a tiny home.
Thank you 💜
The idea of having a sun room in the middle is a great way to enjoy the friend and the tiny houses without having to live under the same roof. It's a great design. It's simple and personal and practical. I love the kitchen sink with the sliding shelf. I also love the room with the fireside heating with propane in a room for viewing the sunset with glass walls. I think the enclosed porch or mud room is so smart. Having a place for coats and shoes umbrellas and whatever else she may need for going out or coming in was very practical. Well thought out. Very nice for her.
This woman has such a beautiful life philosophy. I love the way she has thought out how she wants to spend her final days in this world. Her story is a classic example of karma. She has shown tremendous kindness to others and it has been given back to her from all those involved in building and contributing to her home, not to mention the bequest from her former husband. I’m an old softy and was brought to tears a couple times while watching this video. And finally, I LOVE that the Buffalo Bills were on the TV each time it was pictured. GO BILLS! Thank you for posting this wonderful video. It made my day!
Thank you. You’re very kind too 💜
When she said, “I finally retired.” I immediately thought, “what? 50???” She looks amazing!
She seems like a woman who's got things figured out. Much respect.
Christina's positive outlook on her retirement is exceptionally refreshing. As someone who fears the future too much, this outlook and setup is really, really lovely. Thank you.
Absolutely brilliant! Love your entire place.
Great job and how perfect to have a great roommate in separate quarters. You each have your own space but you have each other’s company. It’s perfect.
Thank you. ☺️🙏
After a year watching Tiny House nation I took different ideas and put them together
@@chrism4757 , I want 4 shipping containers to enclose a yard for my dogs and outdoor privacy for me. One for me, one for my husband, one each for work space/studio. All opening to the courtyard in the middle.
@@TallulahBelle3276what a great idea!
Absolutely LOVE this design! I have often thought about how I would do it and share the space with my sister. This design ticks all the boxes for me. Christina, may you continue to be blessed during your MS journey with many safe and happy days.
Thank you very much and I hope you and your sister can find a way to make your dream come true💜
Absolutely the best one yet! Although, I'm not sure it is all so "Tiny" it is still remarkable. I love that she made room for her room mate and the possibility of a potential live in care giver. Excellent way to manage her future!
This home is really beautiful. She is a very smart person to prepare for her future.
Love your design of two tiny homes with a green house in between both. I love the idea of a courtyard and a screened in porch between the two.
This is the BEST tiny house build and set up I’ve ever seen!!! Well deserved by such a wonderful lady!!! 😊
Thank you for your kind words 💜🙏
This lady is inspiring and so smart. She is so proactive in her decisions including the tiny house. Her planning is awesome. I just want to thank her for sharing her story.
Thanks for watching!
I am a caretaker to my brother, and I have thought that a tiny home like yours would be just right for us....he doesn't need 100 percent care, he wants to be independentas long as possible. I am 73, and he is 70.....I cared for my husband for 9 years before he passed in January of 2023. ..thank you for sharing your home with us.
Christina - My dream is similar to yours except I want a garage, sunroom, tiny house set up the same way, with a small yard for my dog. Oh and I'd like a hot tub in the center too. Thank you for sharing so I too can see what it will look like when complete. I love the cedar wood and windows. Just beautiful and perfect. Still dreaming ...
Love this concept of the 2 tiny homes and the sunroom in the center ❤❤
This is like a moment where you just know the universe is working fine. I have been struggling with the idea of getting old and my husband and I finding our way in that journey. This is the answer. I love love love this. I want to be in as much nature as I can in my last years. I am not old by any means ( 59 is close to the end game. I am no fool. that is to come) but this concept appeals to me to no end. Just going to add bookshelves. Bookshelves on every wall. the simplicity of life becomes more apparent as we age and make our way towards the next journey.
I love that she was so thoughtful about everything. A place for everything and everything in its place. ❤
💯❤️
Christina. You are a brilliant soul. May you have blessings and ease the remaining decades of your life. I am an RN and death doula, so loved loved the conversations about end of life. Yes! to more of that, out of the closet! Your home is amazing and so happy you shared with us. Wonderful that you could include your roomie and those lovely dogs. Take care.
Ooohhh! I've been very interested in the death doulas ever since I saw thbmen for the first time in Ask A Mortician. What's it like? Is it as stressful as being a nurse?
Thank you 💜. I have been unimaginably blessed, So, never give up on your prayers never give up on your dreams,
And may yours be visualized and come to reality for you💜
@@happilyeverafter7703 I don't find it stressful but there is much creative navigation you need to do with families at times. Also, we need to attend to our own grief and relationship to death and dying at all times as that is dynamic, so that we can be very present.
@@chrism4757 Just Beautiful. Thank you So much for that! xx
She seems like such a wonderful person. I feel inspired to live when I see this. 😊
Thank you. Don’t ever give up 💜
The landlord appears to be a reasonable person. Love your home. Greetings from Melbourne Australia.
They are 🙏
This is one of the very best most personal /intimate tiny home vids i have ever seen (watching for years). I love this lady and her story , her philosophy , her reasons for what and how designed this and everything she had to say. I also love this home...it's a great way to live . I also live in WA ..and would love this kind of home . So very glad i came across this video.
So happy to hear it! We absolutely loved filming with Chris and editing her tiny home story 💗
Thank you and go for it, Build your Tiny Home 🙏💜
What a lovely house! Very well put together and decorated! And to hear your a care giver, your one of God's guardian angel's! 🤗
Oh My Goodness ! My similar age & condition plus almost same vision of my tiny. Seeing it all built out was so helpful so thanks guys for bringing Christine to us🙏
You are so welcome! 💕☺️
Thank you so much for featuring seniors and their solutions for their retirement years! I have been looking for this content and LOVED this episode! What a great setup!
Glad it was helpful!
I'm actually a fan of such room tours. Not just to see how people use the space they have smartly and creatively, but also because each of the houses I have seen thus far doesn't 100% resemble another. There is always so much originality as well as unique characteristics of the owner flowing into the houses itself, and, that said, I just think I love seeing people expressing themselves in terms of how they live their life? This one is no exception, either; I love especially the idea about the sun room, the hanging clothes rack (? -- I am not sure about the term in English, as I'm not a native speaker :P.), and, well, the bathtub. :) And I am so happy for Christina to be living in her dream home now.
Oh Christina you have made a lovely home for you and your Roommate 🎉.
You were so generouse to keep your Roommate with you💗.
Enjoy the rest of your days Fishing , Hunting and more!
JO JO IN VT 💞
She's a thoughtful sweet angel compassionate woman who used to work a caregiver. May god bless her and live a long healthy life with her roommate Dan.
Very interesting setup.
As a non coffee (or tea) drinker I refer to the coffee things at work as the Coffee Altar. When I saw her setup it made me smile - the ultimate coffee altar.
Wonderful video to watch as Christina explains how decisions were made, all so well thought out. Love her zest for life for nature and forward planning. Also how she mentioned with gratitude her ex and his brother. Live well lady, you deserve it.
Your so kind, thank you 🙏💜
So inspiring!, I love her design esthetics. The couches, rugs, distressed cabinet, everything looks so beautiful!
I loved the part about the big dipper.. im building a tiny house and am living in amd trying to build at the same time so its been a mess but its getting there.. i love the sunroom idea between the two and may end up doing that myself to make room for more dogs😊
Loved this about the double tiny home with sunroom in the middle. She's a very lucky lady. I could never afford it but it's a nice dream to have. The height of the steps concerning to me but love the overall design of this.
Hopefully some day financing will become more common 🙏💜
So inspirational! I love this house. My roommate and I have known each other for well on 30 years and he is older than me. I would love to do this so I could take care of him if need be. Have already taken care of others, family and loves to the end and this checks all the boxes. Only thing missing is the cash. Thank you for the tour and ideas and I wish Christina and her roommate bliss xx
I love all aspects of what this lady has done with her tiny home. And yes, I like especially the sun room. Because I like lots of windows or skylights as well
Yay, what a great home set up. Good thinking ahead of time for her needs later, and a good friend to share time with.
Christian, I am so glad you got a great chair for your work and naps 😂. Good video! 🥶🖤🔔👍🏻❣️
Thank you kindly! The naps have been 👌👌😜
You go girl!!!
You are a huge inspiration.
Be richly blessed.
See you in heaven 😊
It’s a date 🙏💜
Really love this set up! The sun room, the space for her best friend, roommate, the storage. It hardly seems like it’s tiny! Lovely way to plan your senior years. Wishing them all the best moving forward. 👏🏽🙂
As I've aged, I've come to realize that traveling and living a simple life is what make me happiest. I'm no longer interested in the big houses, fancy cars, name brands, etc. I no longer chase what society, at large, and other individuals deem a success. And this perspective on tiny living is very inspirational as I think about how my mother is currently living in her latter years and how I want to live mine. I've been talking to my siblings, my mother, and her siblings about building our own tiny home community for both family and friends. I think it's time to turn the talk into reality.
That’s a great idea. I studied and researched for a year there’s a lot to learn about local laws.
The biggest thing is needing the prop zoned residential
Good luck
I've watched tons of tiny house videos over the years, & this is the first one that brought tears to my eyes. This is a lovely and creative tiny home with an even more lovely person residing within its walls.❤
🙌☺️💕
This home is magnificent and magical! What an awesome design! ❤❤You and your builders have built such a beautiful home and I love your attitude to life and how you’ve future proofed your living plans! A massive Well Done and Thank you for the wonderful tour! Hi from Australia!!
THANK YOU So much for your very kind words
It was a journey💜
I'm so happy for her to be able to live in her dream.
you are living your best life with Dan. I am actually smiling while watching this video. I know it sounds odd hearing this from a stranger, but I am actually very happy for you. enjoy your retirement
What a beautiful DREAM home she's finally gotten. What an AMAZING AND EXTREMELY THOUGHTFUL MAN she was married to! At his end, he very much blessed her! (It didn't too often wind up this way) What a beautiful thing to plan your life out in your head and dreams and to have it all come to fruition!
And I wish her the most amazing future!!
He really was. We loved each other still 💜. I sit in the sunroom and Thank him 💜🙏
Thank you so much, You are very kind 💜
This is a great set up for tiny living. I would love to have this for me & my hubby. I can have a day bed, small tv & shelving for all my craft stuff in the small tiny. And it would be perfect when I need to decompress from sensory overload.
Great ideas, Seattle Tiny Homes has these plans
nice way to transition for health without losing land lived on for 20 yrs earlier, tiny homes with sunroom makes that very cozy + affordable
you are so very fortunate to have the opportunity to make this happen for you. No matter how "affordable" it is presented, it really isn't affordable to many of us without property or monetary resources. But, that said, best of luck to you on your journey, truly.
I truly adore all the windowed/enclosed areas that likely feel like living outside while simultaneously being dry & secure!!! Amazing!!!! 😱💜 And what a beautiful example of people working together!
The vanity and sink in the bathroom is stunning. Loving the whole set up.
Mandate Seattle Tiny Homes found the sink in the vanity for me had to be a certain sized to fit that tiny space and she did a great job

This is absolutely beautiful..I dream of a tiny home in the woods. I'm also retired living in an adorable apt. often dreaming about a tiny home..Be well and safe thank you for sharing
Christine is a wonderful lady. I love her spirit and energy.❤ and her home is absolutely gorgeous and incredible.
I love this set up. I have had a similar idea about connecting spaces with a central area. This is so well done. Thank you for this tour.
Please use any ideas.
And course I highly recommend Seattle Tiny Homes
We couldn’t have built it a worse time right in the middle of Covid, but we made it through and Todd and AMANDA and the whole crew at Seattle Tiny Homes were amazing💜
God bless you christina. I work in the healthcare industry and you are a kind and loving spirit. You're home is beautiful and I really enjoyed this video. This home is one of my top picks that I have watched so far.
I have been in hospice for over 15 years, and I have to say you have made excellent advanced care plans. I wish more people would advocate for themselves. May your video and message of the importance of pre-planning reach as many people as possible ❤
So happy that you are able to have this design to manage your energy and limitations that MS can put upon you. You inspire me to look forward to designing my own house one day to manage life with fibromyalgia.
Hope you create a home environment that works well for you 💕
Thank you and YES❣️. Do plan for those days 💜🙏
thank you. I've had a crappy thanksgiving. Everything about you and your outlook, has allowed me to feel happy. It's obvious, you make lemonade out of lemons. I also don't detect any ounce of resentment. I've been overwhelmingly surrounded, throughout my life, by people, with a lot of anger. Thank you for telling your story. The world is in tinder... your story is a dose of water, that is desperately needed. We all need this water to survive..... this is the water that cools hate and judgement. My apologies for expressing, perhaps irrelevantly, my feelings. however thank you.
Happy to share some light & inspiration in these trying times 💕✨
Well my gosh, I understand 💜
How sweet of you to say,
One person at a time, each day,
We can chose to be Kind 💜
Hi Christna! I love your spirit and your homes!! I have MS, was diagnosed in 2001 and while I don't have the mobility that you have I am still able to get around and live in a great little compound of four homes. We are artists and gardeners! Thank you for sharing your space. It gives me great encouragement for the future! I hope to have a little studio space added on where I can bring in a potter's wheel.
This is absolutely gorgeous and I love the sunroom.❤
I love the design and Christina and Seattle Tiny Homes did a very good plan on the tiny house. Love it.
I love love love this and that you shared your thinking about planning for end of life realities. This design is so perfect for your spot there in beautiful Maple Valley--I love that you love the rain and the the sky and stars and leaves and designed your home around your thirst for nature. May you have many happy returns and years ahead in your little paradise! Thank you for sharing and inviting us in. 💖
What an amazing woman, and what an amazing home! As someone with five autoimmune disorders, I can certainly appreciate how she planned for limited mobility. I love the sunroom, the various porches, and all the beautiful wood throughout the build. Awesome home.
We totally agree!
You are an amazing, spirited person. Thank you for not only sharing your tiny house experience but your life in this video. Bless you as you continue on this journey.
Thank you🙏. May you find your path and dream 💜
