    That’s so true about purging. My son kept bugging me to buy a big house. Then, he went to Costa Rica and experienced how many people live with almost nothing. My son is very grateful of what we have now and is now content living in a 4-bedroom house (small bedrooms). I think people need to travel abroad and see what other people have in other countries.

She does rough it but mom and dad are there to help. So many of these small house owners have family members who are in the construction business. Makes it 100% easier to consider. Hunting.....keeps meat stored at her parents I suppose. Soooo...still dependant on parents....but that's not all bad. Beautiful area 😊

      It is a plus knowing someone who will let you use a part of their land, but not all of us are that fortunate. I'm quickly realizing my dream of my very own tiny home fading away due to the fact there's no available land around in my area to even put one of these homes on and I don't mean rent a space in a park (I'm currently in an apartment...been there, done that). Ridiculous zoning restrictions plus developers buying up the land to build horrid cookie cutter houses is very depressing, so where are people who want their OWN tiny home on our OWN land supposed to go? We are not rich, just everyday people struggling wanting to fulfill our lives with simple living in a tiny home. Definitely a dream crusher.

And this video of Jodie and her tiny house answered my question well. There is no way you can sleep without having guns.

    • @denverdubois5835
      @denverdubois5835 2 года назад +7

      Yeah, agree. The animal AND human AND weather issues mean there's no way I'd limit myself to an outhouse at night in the winter, though. I would definitely have a cassette or composting toilet in a little cupboard for night wees--especially in winter. Obviously in the daytime I could go outside. The animal consideration is actually the most serious, to me. If you get stuck in the outhouse at night in winter because of an animal, you could freeze--it's easy to say oh I'd shoot the bear or the moose, but that doesn't always stop them as quickly as you need and a moose or a grizzly could probably just knock that outhouse over. Yeah...no. I understand the difficulties and expense with indoor plumbing but you don't need plumbing for the kind of toilets one could easily use.

    Really adorable little house with a stunning view! Have you thought of closing in the underside of your bed instead of leaving it like rafters? You could make them into doors, put hinges on them and pull the doors down for more storage. Winter clothes you aren’t using for instance! As a woman of “a certain age” and taking certain medication there would have to be some sort of commode receptacle. I would be doing wayyy more laundry then what I would care to be doing. You definitely are blessed to be able to have such a sweet little home! Just sitting out kn that delightful deck is worth it!

    nice touch with the cassettes and overhead bed........so many RV type ( for comparison) renovations plunk the queen size bed right in the middle of the confined space......the method used here is efficient

    Whoa, cassette collection. I still have an old Panasonic boombox that plays cassettes and still have a few to listen too. Maxell tapes!
    I have a buddy from high school in northern California who moved up to Portland Oregon in the late 70's and set himself up in an old chicken coup where he slept and lived. I wonder if he was one of the early pioneers of the tiny home movement?! It is much more sophisticated now a days.

    Growing up in the 90s with a family of 8, We always had the stovetop in semi outdoor area so It didnt stink and smoke out the house.
    No electric kettle or any food heater inside the home, yet somehow all 6 kids managed to have warm formula milk before bed everyday with hot water from the thermos.
    If We got hungry at night We just made some ramen outside together.
    As long as Dad updated the Playstations and the vcd players, We were happy.

      AGREED....so if its pouring down rain you go out in the rain to the bathroom????? does it not get cold as well???? .....I never understand how people with so much land build such tiny spaces .....at least put two sheds together or build onto that one ...
      I don't know....

    This is a good example of how each person is unique. I could never EVER live in Alaska, and then add the difficulties of sleeping armed, having an outhouse, and only having enough space for each day’s dinner.
    However, she’s loving what she’s doing! And, the fact that she did so much of the work herself is just amazing!

      Ugh give him a break. You are paying nothing to enjoy this awesome content and be let into someone’s HOME to essentially snoop around and learn from them. Not only do the sponsors help Chris out a lot in making this possible, but there was literally the possibility for someone to WIN a tiny home. I’ve heard him address homelessness more then once and I think it’s awesome. What an amazing human to use his public platform in such awesome ways. Keep doing you Chris, *uck the naysayers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
