    Sydney had me in tears and she is so right! Live your life now because nobody is promised tomorrow. I’m 61 fighting my second round of cancer and this time it’s stage 4, we still have a sticks and bricks home but my favorite place to be is in our 19 ft Geo Pro trailer anywhere out in nature. Loved this video more than I can express❤️

    Sydney's insightful words brought tears to my eyes! I spent my life working on reaching my goals and I'm happy to report that I achieved them! However it was all work and I made NO time to travel. I thought I would do that when I retired. Only now, I am not physically able to even walk the park at a local zoo. People, DO NOT WAIT TO TRAVEL UNTIL YOU RETIRE! DON'T DO IT! Thank you Sydney for the Truth Bomb you delivered to us. Take care and I will be following you guys on your journeys! Much love to you both! ❤❤

    I believe my husband and I,(62&60) have found a very happy medium. We spend days on the river with our grandchildren, we spend weekends with our kids when we can and EVERDAY we enjoy life together. In 3 years, with our 14ft box truck, we hope to see some of this big ol' nation and when we do, we'll be calling you for a tour of our tiny home!!!😀 Loooove your tiny home💖

    The world seems like such a different place than it was when I was starting out in my adult life. I think that boomers’ kids have watched us working our butts off & seeming to live to work & have realized that life if too short to live that way. I think that many of us are realizing that we can live with far less stuff and use our resources to enjoy life. Good for this couple. I wish you many happy, healthy, enjoyable years & a wonderful life together.❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦

    As a 64 yr old I think your life style is exactly what I would have done if I could do it over. I became ill and quite limited so was not able to do what I dreamed of doing when I retired. Getting better and pursuing some of those dreams now. But doing things the way so many young people are is the answer.

    Though I love our 6x10 CTC we designed to sleep family of 4 & a dog, I definitely would design the next CTC like yours with a back deck/ramp. Way to go!
    Both our Moms died from cancer - my heart goes out to you both. Though I would love to travel more - I am grateful for the local adventures we have been able to have with our kids and friends & family. Being able to detach is very useful on family vacations especially with bikes. The CTC with removeable bed at back means it can haul a lot of fun for everyone (& extra tents / camp gear too so more can join us). And becomes a 2nd garage in winter. I would add a shower too if it was a full time rig but for camping trips, the bucket (or a trelino) works just fine.

    Glad I watched! I never thought of a cargo trailer but it can also be very stealthy too! To live in any tiny space mobile or a base camp situation the systems you’ve installed are well thought out and the fact that you can run all the amenities (sun allowed) is hopeful for all that want to try this! Love the personal stories that relate to the why this lifestyle. Very relatable!

    The design and the tour. Most people over talk on the videos and I like that you didn't.
    I'm sorry to hear of your parents passing so young. It's hard. And it definitely gives life perspective.
    It helps a ton that you have each other, and appear to have DIY aptitude if not skills! Not everyone does.

      Right? I hate when people talk non stop on their house tours and start telling us about their favorite little stature or decoration! Who care? And they show the person's face talking more than the tiny home. Nope, this video was perfection. All imports words about their tiny home and the whys of each item including the whys of their life style! And what a gift with the message at the end!

    @mailinglist2451 4 месяца назад +9

    She’s right. There indeed are no guarantees in life so we ought to live life as fully as possible… but we ought to also save for our retirement because “there are no guarantees in life” - what if we live past 65, but don’t have enough to live on cuz we just didn’t work enough or save enough?
    There’s a happy medium. Spend mostly only on the things we need, save for retirement, but also have a “fun fund” to enjoy life on.
    Just my two cents.

    I was enjoying the video until I reached the part where she spoke about life towards the end (around 18:00), mentioning that life has no guarantees. I feel deeply sorry for your loss. As a medical doctor who works with elderly patients with comorbidities, I witness people passing away every day. This has led me to reflect on the kind of life I want to lead. Your words moved me to tears.

    Sydney seems like she is wise beyond her age. I can tell you from personal experience that regrets will come as you get older for putting off your dreams to work hard and save while you're young. I never thought I would be in debilitating chronic pain at the age of 54, but that's how my life is. My Lord Jesus is the only reason I'm not saddened by it all. I have more joy and peace every day in my walk with the Lord Jesus. God bless these 2 as they live their amazing life, always 🤗🤗

    Hi guys, thanks for sharing your video about your van/trailer. I think it was very interesting like you said you don’t know how long you going to be here at 58 years old I had a major truck accident I had fractured skull brain damage 550 mm of my back fused up with two titanium rods 15 breaks in my ribs. My left lung exploded. They did keyhole surgery I had six blood clots in it seven more operations to try to save my right leg which they removed above. My knee died three times in a coma for 29 days. Had to learn to eat drink and speak again major skin graphs. My right hand was under a truck wheel for an hour and a half and they were going to remove my fingers. Thank God they didn’t. I told them no I’ve been stuck in a wheelchair for the last six years, thank god I can drive a car ride a three wheel motorbike and have a space pod camper so I can go camping with my two dogs, but other than that I’m okay keep up the good work. Enjoy life for you again from Australia

    Not the case here apparently.

      We would have had to spend an extra $10k making an RV off grid capable with a solar system, and I personally am really not a fan at all of the way RVs are built and the drab aesthetic. Our build is made of high-quality cabinet grade plywood and cedar, with a nice tile shower that I know will last a long time. RVs are built with particle board, plastic, and vinyl and are not known for holding up over time.
