Hey Everyone! Thanks so much for watching this week's video :) We're starting to plan our 2018 filming schedule and we'd love to know what kinds of stories & topics you'd like us to cover. Feel free to share links and ideas below and we'll check them out in the new year!
Wow...first time building this house in 8 months???...without any experience..you got some talent man...congratulations for getting ahead in life saving a big mortgage or rents.
This is bigger than my studio apartment here in Manila but I like that people are starting to realize that tiny houses\apartments are better and more practical.
Mark, amazing tiny house! Great job! If my husband and I could find some land to park it legally, we would live in it and be completely happy forever. Congratulations to you on building such a warm and cozy home. You seem like a very humble man but you should be very proud of your building skills and the finished home! Be blessed.
If been in the tiny house business for awhile and I've seen many tiny houses. The trailer is the most important part. Get a proper foundation from TrailerMade. You won't be sorry.
That guy did a helluva job with no experience and only a shop course under his belt! Impressive layout and build. They'll be all set for off grid once they get the solar array established. Great video.
What a great tiny house. I really love that they are using a tiny washer too. I live in a tiny A Frame and use a portable Panda washer which is just a little larger than what he has, but these things tuck away in the smallest of areas.
Such a great video. Beautifully put together. And I’m amazed at this build! What a resourceful and talented young man. And I LOVE the plexiglass idea in the shower. Brilliant! Thank you for showcasing this house.
das hasguns 10 gallons for 2 showers per day is about 70 gallons a week, which his set up is for 80 gallons. I think he meant to say two showers for two people per day lasts a week.
Judging on how many times he emphasized "MY tiny house" I guess he's very proud of himself and the success of the building project. And he's got every reason to be proud! Brilliant job. Well done!
Thanks so much David! We've been working super hard trying to improve our filming and editing so it's really cool to see that people are noticing. Have a great day :)
Thanks for watching CoolCat :) Yeah, pretty crazy that he was able to build it by himself while learning all these new skills. It's also cool that they were able to build it on a smaller budget.
Mark your awesome! Thank you for being willing to share your story with Exploring alternatives, I don't see very many Canadian tiny houses, this gives me hope!
Very nice Mark, I love how spacious it is and I congratulate you on building that yourself! Good luck to you when you move it on your own property off grid
I am in Toronto now for two years, the first year I had a basement apartment with centipedes and noisy upstair neighbors for 1150 a month hydro extra and I had to leave early because I never got any rest. The second year I have a one bedroom near the Bloor subway line inhaling gar exhaust and noise and sometimes weird neighbors who get friends over who look shady now I pay 1200 a month with 50 of hydro a month. Not including internet and other bills. As a single woman I am tired of the no balcony no garden, and pollution for no reason and looking to get out and do something intelligent to free myself. I am so sick of my life right now. Great house great plan enjoy your life!
Irma , stop being a work, bank or landlord slave. Rent a plot with friends and build your tiny homes, share as much as possible, avoid needing money as much as possible start growing own food and share with others, rent other tiny house to elderly person and take care of other people who can give you money for your services(housing, washing, helping them, taking care of children) do solar and compost toilet, chickens and rabbits go to warehouses for food going to expire and collect for yourselves and others to share and prepare. Recycle as much as possible (freecycle) Or you stay slave of banks government or employer or landlord or free yrselves. the money government business is a soulkilling, life killing people and other beings through robotjobs and military and industry robbng the planet of soil and valuable resources (oil, gas, coal and al kinds of metals) trees, topsoil. Be part of it or be your own master and stay healthy and vibrant in stead of sick and enslaved
I'm a fan of a tiny house . I can't believe that someone with no carpentry experience can build this awesome tiny house . Yes , I understand he took course in carpentry. Good job ! And that voice make me drowsy . But he speaks very clear .
I really wish that those who dislike could provide some feedback, maybe there's something the inexperienced might've missed. Mark did a phenomenal job!! I like this.
Love these tiny houses. Makes me wanna go off grid. This is probably my first time in your channel can't remember but Love The videos. Subscribed. Good luck.
This is dedication kids. Maybe one day our youth will be inspired by people like this guy and get us from the bottom 25% back to the top 25% of education .
Great video!! Thank you for talking about the price and about how they found a place to park it. Very, very helpful information. 😁 Extemely impressive that he built it with no building experience and for 24k!!!
Wonderful job man! This is the perfect example of how us humans don’t need a lot of space to live in, we just think we do. My mother back in her home land, used to live in a 20x20 house. I would live in a place like this. Probably not trailer style, but a house like that size then
Please congrat him for me I feel bad for him and his girlfriends past sounded like it was a struggle but now seems like you guys are doing a lot better and I love the tiny house 😍😍 it looks really snuggly

Exploring Alternatives I would enjoy hearing more about the process of buying land for tiny houses or off grid living in North America.
👍👍👍 nice video.
CoolCat Carolena. just
Your channel has been amazing since I first watched you on Kirsten's channel. I love these types of vids but alos your videos about how you two live.
I've never seen a Yurt video I didn't like. 1 vote for Yurts please!
Wow...first time building this house in 8 months???...without any experience..you got some talent man...congratulations for getting ahead in life saving a big mortgage or rents.
He took a carpentry course, which is hands-on experience.
@@zeroman614 dosent matter most ppl wouldnt be able to do it themselves with just the help of a few classes
What a humble man, all the best to him and his family.
to any person who builds its own housing.... my respect
This guy is so chill, and what an achievement, he is so inspiring. I hope their plans with the move came to fruition.
the dudes voice is so soothing
hyena mehlk I know it’s husky and smooth
This is bigger than my studio apartment here in Manila but I like that people are starting to realize that tiny houses\apartments are better and more practical.
Dude has a cool, interesting voice! My advise, podcasting or do radio! Or even voice over work!
Mike Williams I thought the exact same thing. He has a very calming, soothing way about him.
I swear this guy must do tech reviews or something haha
I agree, very unique and almost soothing. :)
It might sound soothing but it also sounds labored and horse. Something isn’t right.
Someone cast him now!
Mark, amazing tiny house! Great job! If my husband and I could find some land to park it legally, we would live in it and be completely happy forever. Congratulations to you on building such a warm and cozy home. You seem like a very humble man but you should be very proud of your building skills and the finished home! Be blessed.
This is really awesome. He did a great job! I love the raw edge desk and counter top.
Thanks Ron, happy you enjoyed the tour :)
This home owner has a calming voice and personality. He would be a very good teacher.
I am 23 and planing to build a tiny house/cabin in the wilderness soon. These videos are very inspiring!
Thanks for watching, I'm happy that you're finding inspiration in these videos. Best of luck with your future build :)
If been in the tiny house business for awhile and I've seen many tiny houses. The trailer is the most important part. Get a proper foundation from TrailerMade. You won't be sorry.
Same! I either want to do a tiny house or a van. Im leaning more towards the van cause it fits my style more. I'd like to travel the west cost
pls dont waste your money invest and buy a real house not a tiny one.
Son of a Bear Bushcraft do you usually say your age before you say anything?
That guy did a helluva job with no experience and only a shop course under his belt! Impressive layout and build. They'll be all set for off grid once they get the solar array established. Great video.
ᙅYᙖᙓᖇ ᗪOᙅ™ He did say he bought the drawings but it’s still impressive.
Hes asain he can probably build an entire city with crayon instructions.
What a great tiny house. I really love that they are using a tiny washer too. I live in a tiny A Frame and use a portable Panda washer which is just a little larger than what he has, but these things tuck away in the smallest of areas.
Such a great video. Beautifully put together. And I’m amazed at this build! What a resourceful and talented young man. And I LOVE the plexiglass idea in the shower. Brilliant! Thank you for showcasing this house.
I love everything about this tiny house, so practical, so aesthetically pleasing, so cozy...PERFECT!!!
You have done a great job. Lots of room in the kitchen and love the sink.
For showers turn water on get wet, turn it off lather and wash hair, turn water back on and rinse. 10 gallons tops for 2 showers.
das hasguns was thinking the exact thing when he mentioned it
das hasguns 10 gallons for 2 showers per day is about 70 gallons a week, which his set up is for 80 gallons. I think he meant to say two showers for two people per day lasts a week.
Brandon Berglund I hope you meant two showers a day and not two showers a week yikes
Smell that? I think a bear just walked by honey.
Beautiful and just well balance with light and darkness.
Judging on how many times he emphasized "MY tiny house" I guess he's very proud of himself and the success of the building project. And he's got every reason to be proud! Brilliant job. Well done!
What an amazing guy! A beautiful house.
I'm just floored at how well this video is put together. Y'all have come such a long way. Stellar production.
Thanks so much David! We've been working super hard trying to improve our filming and editing so it's really cool to see that people are noticing. Have a great day :)
His voice is so soothing! Love their tiny home :)
Pretty amazing for someone without experience to build a house so well! Good job Mark!!! You are smart & talented!!!
Love his soft voice.
Latinz Prince good idea
marieke Maakt t maar MOOI I don’t
Cool story
IGreat build for someone with no building experience. I would buy this Tiny Paradise!
Thanks for watching CoolCat :) Yeah, pretty crazy that he was able to build it by himself while learning all these new skills. It's also cool that they were able to build it on a smaller budget.
CoolCat Carolena hi i want to build tiny house for both of us. Together forever
Love the design so much... everything is pretty yet simple and practical
Mark seems like he's pretty awesome! Refueled my ambitions to do something similar one day.
What a great tiny home! Love those slab countertops!
I LOVE the red little touches, like the sink, door and curtain. The semi rustic style is just fabulous. Well done. 👍
Wonderful tiny house: there is everything you need and it's really cozy!
Wrap copper coil around the single stove pipe section to heat water for showers or cooking.
das hasguns Good idea !
das hasguns Ye because they can shower in that
It would only be a reasonable idea during cold weather.
@@mass4552
True but it is a brilliant idea.
@@mass4552 in Canada that's half the year
Congratulations you did a great job! I know you learned a lot!
Amazing 👌❤ And kudos to him for building during the winter!
some of us do construction in the winter lol its cold and rainy in vancouver and we still work outside
This house is perfect for mountains when you want to go camping
Very humble, simple guy. I like people like this.
Oh that is SWEET!! I would SO LOVEEE to live there!!!!!
This is amazing and elegant in execution. Simple, clean and upcycled.
As far as I’m concerned, the best and most beautiful tiny house you’ve talked us about ! 👍❤️

Really clever ideas, modestly done, but estheticly satisfying. Thanks for sharing.
I wanna do this When i get older, mannnn this guy is Hella smart and cool!
Mark your awesome! Thank you for being willing to share your story with Exploring alternatives, I don't see very many Canadian tiny houses, this gives me hope!
Amazing! Im very impressed and inspired to take a class like you did. This is my favorite tiny house yet and I've seen 200 videos I bet!
Lovely tiny house. Great job!
Very nice Mark, I love how spacious it is and I congratulate you on building that yourself! Good luck to you when you move it on your own property off grid
Thank you for discussing the costs throughout the video. Very informative and helpful for perspective buyers. Greatly appreciate it!
You can see from this that the dude has nice personality.. like kind person
It's so, so inspiring to see young people try something new and come up with great work. This house is amazing.
His wife is lucky to have a creative hardworking man. This was an amazing build
Great job Mark ! You did an awesome job on your house. Love it. How did you do the exterior siding. Love it !!!!
the wood base 2:02 in the kitchen is a masterpiece make me think about a fantasy tavern somewhere
Very inspiring. Planning to do the same in the next year and I also have little experience, I can't wait
How did it go
Wow amazing . Mark .....I admire your do diligence! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻well Done young man!
OMG you're the man. Love it.
Bro, you can't TELL ME this guy doesn't seem like a human version of Kif from Futurama.
Amy didn't want to be in the video!
I was thinking he reminded me of someone. 👍
LOL....he could definitely be Kif.
Omg 😂
Well done Mr. Mark having your home narrated by your soothing tones was very nice experience thanks for sharing

Get out of the rat race, only way you well be happy. Get out in the country and away from the stress of city life
Irma , stop being a work, bank or landlord slave. Rent a plot with friends and build your tiny homes, share as much as possible, avoid needing money as much as possible start growing own food and share with others, rent other tiny house to elderly person and take care of other people who can give you money for your services(housing, washing, helping them, taking care of children) do solar and compost toilet, chickens and rabbits go to warehouses for food going to expire and collect for yourselves and others to share and prepare. Recycle as much as possible (freecycle)

thats why I want to know what trailer park in Stouffville. it would be worth the commute
I would do this in a heartbeat with the right people
I will for sure. Thanks Zach
FINALLY!! Someone that doesn't live on family\friends land.
Great job that young fella did on his house. It looks very cosy and comfortable.
I'm a fan of a tiny house . I can't believe that someone with no carpentry experience can build this awesome tiny house . Yes , I understand he took course in carpentry. Good job ! And that voice make me drowsy . But he speaks very clear .
Love it !!!!!!!!! love the sink!
I really wish that those who dislike could provide some feedback, maybe there's something the inexperienced might've missed. Mark did a phenomenal job!! I like this.
Love these tiny houses. Makes me wanna go off grid. This is probably my first time in your channel can't remember but Love The videos. Subscribed. Good luck.
Very nice production on this video! Nice home, timed right at 10 minutes. Excellent!!! Subscribed & liked for sure! Look forward to more.
Thanks so much for the positive feedback :) :)
Congrats Nice home great work. His voice is soothing starting to fall asleep😪😁
Great tiny house. Nice job.
Impressive. I need to accomplish something like this
Always inspiring, always.
What kind of ruffian would dislike this video?
What a great home! NAILED IT!
I’m a uk carpenter and very impressed with you young man!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nice sink!
Beautiful and well thought out! Thanks for sharing!
This is dedication kids. Maybe one day our youth will be inspired by people like this guy and get us from the bottom 25% back to the top 25% of education .
red kitchen sinks, are beautiful ! I would have invested in a silent fridge...
thanks a lot dear I love wood making things every time
very cool, big respect to this dude who built it...
So much vision - to quit your job, move to a different province and build this with zero carpentry background.
Great video!! Thank you for talking about the price and about how they found a place to park it. Very, very helpful information. 😁 Extemely impressive that he built it with no building experience and for 24k!!!
Very smart and the house is very well made and laid out. Very nice.
Wow factor on this beautiful home congratulations on your home
Great house Marc!!!!
Thanks for sharing so much practical information about the tiny house and how you live in it - great job, your house is beautiful!
nice tiny house! & he seems like a nice guy 🐈
U can tell hes a smart dude. Built it as frugally as possible but high quality . PartyOn
This is a bad ass house. Lots of good things I lerned here. You are awesome!
Thanks!
One of the better builds for so little cost. Love the mini stove.
Wonderful job man! This is the perfect example of how us humans don’t need a lot of space to live in, we just think we do. My mother back in her home land, used to live in a 20x20 house. I would live in a place like this. Probably not trailer style, but a house like that size then
I like his calm voice 😏
Opa it frustrates me
its whispering not calm
Cool story
Amazing tiny house ... I just loved it
Quit his job to make a home........way to go you two.
Doug W He also bought a 10acre plot.....must be well-off already....
You can tell he’s proud I would be to looks awesome
Nice! In the future it would be interesting to see a part 2 after they moved to BC :)
Agreed!
haha, yo buddy! :) as huge as it is, the internet can also be a small world :D
Haha, you make it easier to find you with all the commenting you do!
or..., we both spend a lot of time on YT, haha!
haha, you got it ;)
Thanks for the tour.
He did a wonderful job with this one.
he has a batman voice
Very nice. Thanks for sharing. I think renting land or a trailer park is best for parking tiny houses. Every state should be able to accompany this.
Please congrat him for me I feel bad for him and his girlfriends past sounded like it was a struggle but now seems like you guys are doing a lot better and I love the tiny house 😍😍 it looks really snuggly
IM SO PROUD OF YOU, YOU DID A GOOD JOB,GOOD LUCK,AND GOD BLESS .
Mark should be doing narrative for Injun stories. Voice is so cool.
