We're Alexis & Christian, Tiny House Expedition creators and lived in their DIY tiny house for 6.5 years. 🛠️ We built our 130 sqft home with the help of friends & family, using about 80% reclaimed wood & recycled materials. 🚚🏡💨 Then we hit the road to live nomadically in their tiny house on wheels for 4.5 years, crisscrossing the US many times. During that time, we traveled to numerous tiny home communities, welcomed 75k people into our home & created tiny house documentaries. 🏘️ 🌲 Now we have a tiny homestead in the PNW, where we plan to create a 2nd tiny house parking spot for someone else, renovate our A-frame cabin & finish our shuttle bus conversion. 🚌🌄

Download June’s Journey for FREE: cherrypick.gg/TinyHouseExpedition 🕵♀Enjoy a tour of our DIY tiny home! We built it in 2014 w/lots of recycled materials. Then we lived nomadically across the US--enjoyed new experiences, participated in many events & created the Living Tiny Legally docu-series. We're fortunate to now have our tiny homestead, where plan to rent out our THOW long-term & create a 2nd THOW parking spot. Also, we're renovating our A-frame cabin. 👉 *TOUR our cabin:* ruclips.net/video/6l5gmtebGY0/видео.html
After watching you guys for so long, it's nice to finally hear your story and see your tiny home! Hope we get a tour of the A-frame too one of these days! I enjoy your wacky sense of humour and all the great tiny tours you've given us over the years.
Ahhh we so appreciate you! ❤️ And happy you enjoy our silliness. 😜 A-frame tour coming in 2 weeks!
@TinyHouseExpedition Yay! Look forward to it. And I'm an old broad, so you have broad appeal! 😉
Ditto! Well said. Thank you! This was a wonderful tour. Every moment, another delightful surprise revealed itself in your incredibly unique and warmly inviting tiny, so like you two in every way. I loved learning how much of yourselves you put into your incredible build. Loved the use of found objects and the many innovative solutions dreamed up to fill your specific needs. Love your channel’s focus on unique houses and the stories of the people who build them. What a treat to find the camera lens turned on yourselves for a change. This adds depth to your channel, knowing better the story of your own ‘tiny’ journey. So sweet to see your son and Winnie again too. ❤
I was not expecting the level of thought, ingenuity, and craftsmanship that went in to your tiny home. Christen, you amaze me!
🙌❤️🙏🙏🙏
Very cool to see you guys got an A frame and property now! 🎉
We feel so fortunate that the stars aligned at the right time to make this new chapter a reality❣️☺️
@TinyHouseExpedition May God's blessings continue to shower you both!! I always wished I had more technical/editing/ video/camera skills to document my journies... maybe one of these days I'll get help with those skills! Until then I'll keep living vicariously through all the channels I love to follow! Thanks* for all your sharing!! Can't wait to see the A-frame adventures unfold!
I’ve been with you since 2014. I believe you were one of the first channels I subscribed to when I first got an iPad. Yes I’m old 😊 It’s been an incredible journey over the past decade! Here’s to the next decade of success for you both! Can we get a peek at your son sometime? I hope he is well and happy. Love to you both.
Edit: Oops! I should have waited until the end of the video before I commented. There is Garrett and he is a handsome young man. Thanks for including my favourite kid, now a very tall and good looking guy.
Oh wow!❣️ Thank you for joining us on this wild & wonderful journey! Gman is camera shy sometimes but occasionally he lets us share a lil slice of life with him ☺️
So many great ideas!! That's the best way to live. Any couple who does this better really like each other. 😅😊
Glad to hear you found it helpful! And yeah, we really love each other 😜💗
Beautiful story! Great inspiration! This is a dream for me and I hope to one day be living in my tiny house! Thank you for sharing!
So happy to share 💕 best wishes with your tiny home journey!!! We are beyond grateful for our tiny experience, truly life changing in the best way💗
Love the pops of orange! The kitchen counters are gorgeous! How smart the table and t.v. area plus the shoe areas are! Love this couple, watch them all the time. Their commercials are hilarious!
Thank you very much! Orange is my favorite color 😉🧡💛
4:50 Personally I have always said that, Reclaimed repurposed material adds such character to any small space. ❤❤ 🥰🤩 And Imagine a huge fan Of reclaimed material being used In Tiny home 🏡 builds, also being very cost efficient. 🧚🏾♀️👏🏾🎯🎉🌻🙋🏾♂️🫶🏾🙌🏾
🙌🙌🙌
It's a testament to your building ability that it held up so well after 55000 miles of travel. Still one of my favourite tiny houses, and my favourite tiny house channel ❤
Happy that you've found a place you love to have a property and feel like you have some roots 💚
🙌💓☺️ you are so kind-thank you! Our house might be a bit overbuilt but totally worth it for the peace of mind over the years 😄
Your precious daughter brings such light and joy to us all. ❤ Thank you so much for sharing bits of her life with us. It is a real honor. Prayers for you three for health, strength and blessed rest!

Ahhh that’s awesome! Thank you for the high praise!
I love being reacquainted with your story.
You guys are the 1st videos that I fell in love with tiny house. I love your videos and Christian wacky sense of humor. Keep your videos coming.
Ahhh we appreciate that! Thank you very much ❤️💕
Hey guys! 🙋🏻♀️ It's me, Gen with a G, one of your OG subs from Toronto! I always love watching your videos. Out of all the tiny house channels out there (and I watch a lot of them!), I've learned the most from yours. This one particular video though, gave me a particularly deep sense of pride and joy watching an encapsulation of your past decade. You've literally come a looooong way! 😂 and I'm so grateful you've shared your incredible journey with us. 🥰
Gen, you are such a sweetheart! 💗 We appreciate your love and support over the years. And wow-what a wonderful compliment about learning so much from our channel. That’s a huge part of our passion for doing what do-empowering others to pursue a tiny home or simple lifestyle and just know that there are other worthwhile options out there. 💗
Love the shoe storage! Thanks for sharing this lovely build:)
It's wonderful to finally see the inside of your (amazing!) tiny house, and now your beautiful A frame. What a fantastic homestead/tiny community in the making --so many cool projects - I love it!! Wishing you the very best as it all evolves.
We really appreciate your encouragement and sweet feedback! ☺️❤️
It's amazing how you created.
All the space.
But I could never live
In such a tiny place.
We can understand that 😁 to each their own!
WOW just WOW!!!!!! I can't explain the feeling I got from watching your beautiful tiny house!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!! Can we see the A-frame house one day?
🥰 appreciate you sharing that! A-frame tour coming in a couple of weeks 😁
Discovered your channel about 2 years ago and hooked on it.
Great tiny home and A- frame house!. Lovely area!
You have a lot of vision, and that makes a huge difference in quality of life. We'll done
From Pretoria South Africa
So happy to hear your kind feedback-thank you for being part of our YT community! Following our passions has brought so much vibrancy into our lives 💗
Your tiny home is really adorable! Compact, yet comfy. Each thought you put into it adds to the individuality of your home. The "Good Morning A**hole" mug feels out of place, but I'm sure there's a story behind it. Best to you both:)
🙌🙌🙌 ❤️ and you’re right! There is a story behind that silly mug ☕️ 😉
Thank you so much for sharing so many fabulous details. Love everything you allowed us to take a peek at. ❤❤❤
You are so welcome! Appreciate your sweet feedback 😊✨💫
I have been following you about three years ago. This channel is unique and different from other tiny house channels. This video is great to cover everything and more detailed information. This is great to recycled and reclaimed materials to build the house. Love it.
That’s high praise 🥰 thank you kindly! We really love what we do and pretty nerding about tiny homes, so we like to showcase things we’re fascinated by and what we think others considering this lifestyle would like to know 😄😊
Nice to meet you both. Great job 👏
Appreciate the kind feedback; thanks for stopping by! 🙂✨
Beautiful home!!
Thank you! ☺️
Love the live edge shelves and the curtains, the plate holder idea! I love themetal baskets. I pick up things people throw out all the time!😊
Live edge always has such a charming woodland vibe ✨🌲🍄
Very compact but so functional❤
Love the table/swivel 😊TV
What a great tour! I have seen bits and pieces especially of your tiny over the years but this was great to see it all! Love all the secret storage and multi use furniture. ❤❤
Thanks so much, and glad you enjoyed it! 💕😊
I absolutely love the "One Butt Kitchen" label! Super Cute Quirk
😂💃🕺
In my last apartment I had a galley kitchen and it was a two-butter. I miss being at the stove and being able to just reach behind me to grab something out of the fridge. I have a kitchen now that is a very wide U shape with a lot of wasted space. I think I need a tiny home.
I haven't followed you but am incredibly happy to hear a family is off the road and becoming established in a permanent place. Great success to you.
Thank you!
Very liveable tiny. Love all the storage, especially the shoe rack and the over toilet vanity.
🙌💫
functional home. great use of space
Amazing journey! Your tiny house is beautiful! Your content on your channel is diverse and encouraging for those of us searching for small, affordable yet comfortable alternatives for the most important items on our own personal path. Thank you!
Thank you very much! And that means a lot 💗 our sincere hope has always been to be helpful and supportive for those interested in living alternatively. Also to just let folks know there are many options out there to explore to find what works best for you 😊
I LOVED hearing this story, today! It was sweet and interesting and colorful. And it's really cool that yall have so many "moments " you shared that are so meaningful, each in their own way.
So happy to hear your kind feedback 🥰
Neat circle to see Zac as your inspiration. I sure see his experienced ideas on the show he is doing with his friend John. Your home is warm and wonderful. I love seeing you guys and your finds.
Thank you! ☺️ Zack is such great creative thinker and become such a wonderful advocate for the movement
Loved this! Thank you for the tour! Y'all are the bee's knees!
p.s. LOL @ the "good morning, a**hole" mug! 😆
😂❤️🙏
Glad to see you both thriving! Loved seeing the renovations you made to the house too!
Thank you Amy! ☺️ Hope you’re doing well ❤️
I love your Tiny House, but I love your story even more! Thank you for sharing.
Ahh appreciate the love! 💗
Thanks for sharing your journey guys. Beautiful ❤
so they towed it with a uhaul? as that is wh
at is shown
Cc That Is a possibility. I am also assuming the same. 😅🎉
We did! U-Haul was our truck sponsor--they lent us trucks & we paid for gas. I sent the PR department a blind email during our build and pitched them on being a part of our tiny house travels--much to our delight, we found the right person who said yes!
@@TinyHouseExpedition Oop 😂😂 U-Haul For the Win 🥇 ❤ every time.
@@TinyHouseExpedition that's great, I didn't realize that. So happy it worked out for y'all.
Congratulations, enjoy your new journey 😊
Thank you!! 😊
What you both created is beautiful. All the originality, thought, love, ingenuity, creativity, and beauty that went into your tiny home is amazing. The TV idea, steps, slide out table under a table, bathroom table, reclaimed materials, fabrics, storage, comfort, etc, are all stunning.
To think you took your home with you wherever you went is incredible. Well done.
It would be lovely to see what you did inside your A frame house.
Thanks for sharing and inspiring. Cheers from Germany 😊🏡🤗
Wow, thank you kindly! 🙌☺️ A-frame tour coming in a couple of weeks!
What a deeeeelight! As always, it's a fabulous tour. Thank you for always sharing your journey 😊
So happy to finally share this updated tour & walk down memory lane! Thank you for continuing support & love ❤️
Your tiny house is cozy, pretty and very well-designed. I love everything about it but especially the front door, curtains and your countertop. You guys are great and I like the commercials you make yourselves for whatever item is the sponsor of the video. Very talented and lovely people you are!
You are sweet! Thank you for the love! 💗 💕✨
Love your Tiny Home and your story ♥️
Keep up the good work! Keep the Tiny stories coming 👍🏽
Thank you! Will do! ❤️

Thank you for also taking us on tours of other tiny homes it is appreciated thank you folks . watching from Ontario Canada .
Thank you so much! Boy, did we get so lucky with all that gorgeous salvaged wood. We kept pinching ourselves. Alex, the sweet neighbor who gave us all that, is of many examples of the generous folks who’ve helped make our dream a reality ❤️
First time I heard your story and saw your tiny house. Loved it!😊
Thank you kindly!
Wow! Very impressive! Your videos inspired me to come up with my own tinyhouse ideas. Although, my house is a mansion compared to yours! 😂
I love how you made the space work for you and your family. We are now in our second tinyhouse and love it so much. We continue to change the storage areas and space options as time goes by and circumstances change. It is the best!
Thank you for sharing ❤❤
That made our day-thank you for sharing that and all the love! 💗 Also, so cool that your journey took you to another tiny home. Maybe we can film with you one day! Let us know if you might be up for that 😊
Have been watching you over the years. Really enjoyed your journey.
We very much appreciate that 😊🙏
Thanks for the love story -- good luck ahead!
Much appreciated! ☺️
Your tiny home is wonderful!

Us too, for too long! 😂 We had a lot of putting this video together and walking down memory lane. ☺️ Thank you kindly for your sweet feedback! 🩷
Thanks for sharing an update on your tiny house. I really like the handcrafted counters, very beautiful with the different woods. Also, the handmade curtains and comfortable looking couch. Your property looks peaceful and pretty too! Will you be showing a tour of the A-frame in the future?
Appreciate the love! We’re all about prioritizing comfy living and love a woodsy feel. ☺️ A-frame tour coming in 2 weeks!
I love the shoe rack too😂.
Now that's thinkin(the table)!
You've got talent Christian 👍.
Nicely Done guys,your a lucky lady Alexis 🤗.
JO JO IN VT 💞
I am lucky! Christian is an incredible creative problem solver and a real sweetheart 💓💞
Your home is so warm and inviting, full of clever diy’s and beautiful craftsmanship- love it all! I know you mentioned you’d make some changes after viewing other homes and would love to know what those would end up being!
🙌🙌🥰 thank you! Well think on how to share more about that in another video. But one thing is for sure, we’d build a wider tiny house! 😅
Awww, what a nice couple😊. Thanks for sharing your build and journey ❤️
Appreciate you! 🥰
Thanks for this, guys. It was great to see your Fab Tiny House and to get to know a bit more about you. Loved it. ❣️

Thanks for the tour.
Ahh appreciate you! 🥰💕
I just love your channel and its the first tiny home channel i followed! Youre always so upbeat and friendly ❤

Thank you for the sweet feedback! 💕☺️ A-frame tour coming in 2 weeks and hopefully we’ll finish the bus by the end of the year 😅
hello from georgia. Love this personalized video; I've often wondered, as I'm sure many others have, what your tiny house looked like. It truly is tiny; and you've made it your own. Thanks for sharing; your videos are one of my favorite for tiny houses. Take care kids.
So many great ideas for a future tiny home. Fantastic work on your house!
Thank you so much ☺️ ✨
Enjoyed learning about your journeys to come together and make it work because of Tiny thinking. Which means tremendous planning and executing of details that function properly.
Thank you kindly!
I've followed you for quite awhile now as I so enjoy your wonderful videos. It was great to watch this about your journey. So happy you posted your story! Always a pleasure to watch...& dream of living in a tiny house😊
Thank you so much! ❤️ We so appreciate you sticking with us ☺️
@@TinyHouseExpedition Absolutely! Your videos are so well done. Good production & heartfelt. Afternoon teatime with Tiny House Expedition❤🫖😊
Congratulations on your homestead!! It looks wonderful. You two are so creative and, I can tell, kind. I'm tall too and always wondered if that would make living in a tiny house more difficult. Your higher counters and your use of space is perfect. Thanks for sharing. It was fun!
Thank you very much! 💗 Can’t tell you how grateful we are to have landed here. ☺️ We seen several tiny home designs well-suited for tall folks. After enjoying our high counters for so long, it feels so uncomfortable to use regular height ones! Best wishes with your tiny research!
It's cool to hear about you life after tiny on wheels, but I'd like to hear a little more about your build, plans, electrical, insulation, that kinda thing. How you found your trailer, what possessed you to buy a used uphaul to pull it around with, whir you afraid, did the house pull well. Building can be overwhelming, did you have a coach or friend you consulted that helped you figure it out or did you already have construction exp.
Thanks for the feedback! We would like to share more nitty-gritty info about our build experience 😁
I have a dream of a tiny home. I am currently in my home with 2 of my adult daughters and their boyfriends. I'm ready for my own space! Lol
Your tiny home will feel like a mansion because you’ll have it all to yourself! 😃
I like that it's woods themed but the bathroom is aquatic life. Anyone else notice the crochet jellyfish hanging in the window? So cute. I'm wondering if the shower is big enough that one could bend at the waist and lean forward because that's how I rinse my hair and put in products before putting in a towel. (It's a long curly hair thing.)
Good catch! I love that jellyfish-crocheted by a friend. Happy to share there’s definitely room to bend over fully in the shower. I always do that to comb out my long wavy hair to get excess water out 😃
Inspirational lifestyle and i 🧡 the pops of orage colors. The jellyfish 😊
🙌🧡✨
Beautiful counter tops! Love the curtains.
Thanks so much! 😊
Been watching your channel for a while, from the UK. Was interesting to hear a bit of the background, thank you for sharing x
Happy to hear it and thank your very much 😊❤️✨
Love hearing your story. I love all the home you show us. I’m obsessed with tiny homes and working on o e for myself.
Very interesting to finally really "meet" both of you. Wow you two are really very creative with storage issues, just amazing.❤❤❤😊😊😊
Thanks so much! 🥰
Loved this personal video about you & your fabulous tiny house...thanks 🥰
You are so welcome 😊❤️
Welcome to Canada when you were here. Hope you were treated well.
We were! Such a warm welcome from the tiny home enthusiast community in BC 😊
Love your story and channel. Your homestead is beautiful!
Really appreciate that! Thank you ☺️💕
The car wash power wash…great idea actually. I did 😂 at the thought though !
It’s pretty silly but also made it so easy 😂😅😊
So happy to see you guys in a video. I just love to see how your lives have progressed these past years. I can't even remember when I started watching. I still refer people to your channel when they talk about tiny/nomadic living. Thank you for all the hard work you folks have done sharing your lives, informing the masses, and being the best advocates. And, of course, the humor when doing your commercials in the video's 😊. Cheers
Thank you very much! We sincerely appreciate your support and kind feedback about our work. It’s 💯 a labor of love. ❤️
You are so blessed to have found each other and share your adventures. Never thought about not seeing your HOME completely. It's terrific. Wishing you many more yr of tiny home living. Thank you for sharing yr luv and letting us in. 🎉❤❤❤❤
We are! Appreciate the love 🥰 we’re happy to finally share this!
I love this video and the way you let us get to know you better ❤
Happy to hear it and thank you so much for the kind feedback 🥰
Cool makeup table, main closet, & more.❤🎉🎉
enjoyed watching, what u said about falling down a rabbit hole when watching videos on tiny living haha! understand that really well. while my house is much bigger some rooms dont function well, so in the process of a huge remodeling job of 3 rooms. what i love about watching your video and all the others is how creatively the space is being used from the moment of walking on the deck of your place to even the bedroom, thru kitchen and Bathroom , Awesome Job!!
The rabbit hole is a slippery one! 😆 We think it always takes some time living in your home to really identify the pain points. Just about every time we film a tiny home we get new ideas. Never gets old to see how someone makes their space work for them. 😄😊 Best wishes with your remodel!!
Y'all are adorable ❤ I am absolutely impressed with your ingenuity!! Thank you for giving me something awesome to watch!
Ahhh shucks 🥰 you are so sweet! We appreciate the love ❤️
You guys are great😊
Loved,loved this video of y’all’s home.Been watching y’all from the beginning.Hugs.
So appreciate you; thank you!! 🤗
Good job on the house and on the presentation. I enjoyed watching it.
Glad to hear it! And thank you 😊
Such a delightful couple and personable, inspiring human beings--thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous homestead on wheels and a bit of your lifestyles. I can't wait to take a tour of your A-frame in the woods!
Ahh shucks 🥰 that’s very kind of you! We feel so incredibly grateful for this life we’ve built and continue to build together 💗💕
Love all your neat things you made!! Great job
Thanks very much! 😊✨
