I love the layout. They never mentioned the cost of the build

Beautiful! Hands down one of the best ones I've seen. Wood cabin walls are ok to visit, but for me they get dark dreary depressing after a while. So glad to see this couple go bright and light. Only negative abt tiny homes is. I AINT LIVIN N A TRAILER PARK LMAO. nothing against the projects or trailer parks out there. Just saying nice inside but look out window. Still a trailer park. Hahahaha. Only way I'd like it is if I bought a piece of land first. Not paying anybody s lot rent just my own taxes. That place just like a condo. They can charge whatever the heck they want for lot rent and condo fees. And for condos they can foreclose ur condo if u stop paying their fees. Or BUILDING FUND. LOL used to be liens but now it's foreclosure. And sell ur condo for 5k if they want too. Even if u owe bank MTG. So tiny looks nice but only on my land

Agreed!!

@@tempgirl00711 Trailer parks have come a long way in the last 30 years; maybe you should look into it and do research before you judge a trailer park as being synonymous w/ "the projects."

What a fantastic couple!!! Of course they’d build a fantastic home!! I love how she described everything herself! My kind of woman! Just like me! I want to know & understand everything that’s going on....have an opinion about every aspect. The IKEA purchases are awesome! They do have some Boxeso The place is so carefully thought out! I love the outside amenities....the patio, the extra room... I’d love to have heard the cost. it’s a real shame they can’t have their dog!!

Thanks for clearing up the dog issue. We have a 12yr old lab (rescued at 7yr and he was abused) i see your point, older dogs are harder to travel with. As long as you have loving family to care for your furbaby!

Cathy R, Thank you for giving us this info Cathy; I kind of wondered when you said you'd left a MEMBER of your FAMILY BEHIND!? I'm happy Pico is loved and cared for; no matter who she's with, she's always with her family! We also have an old rescue girl: my daughter saw Bella on FB several years ago; they were taking her to the pound because SHE LICKED A BURGLAR! But...it was their 'friend' who didn't know about the cameras, broke into their shop and stole stuff; she knew him, so she didn't 'guard' the shop, allowing him to leave; we joke she'd have helped him carry the stuff if she could!! She's been named 'Rufus' and 'Tiger' and a horrible mean racist name (they were Hispanic people in Watsonville, near Santa Cruz.) She met them, took her in and we've lived her ever since! She absolutely loves my daughter, she wants to snuggle every time Becky comes home from work or has days off. And she's been a very good kids' dog too! Oh, I forgot...Bella was owned from birth by a horrible dog-fighting ring in King City; since she refused to fight, they said they used her as a 'bait dog' and she's got many scars! How can ANYONE be so cruel, I'll never know!!!! Over my lifetime, I and our family have never bought our animals; when one passes away, we go to a local pound or shelter, and pick one, even if it takes weeks to find the right one! We believe they appreciate it, that they realize we saved them, and they are happy for it. We now have as members of our family Bella, a 9 year-old 150# big baby beautiful brindle colored Cano Corso; Charlie, a 4 year-old 125# rescued St. Bernard who is nearly blind now; Lucky, a 12 year-old mutt maybe of poodle, Bijon Frise, cocker spaniel, who chewed a hole in our fence many years ago and moved in, neighbors told us he'd been the neighborhood stray for 5 years previous; and Killer, my 50/50 chihuahua and Jack Russell Terrier who was going to be drowned because they dropped him on his head as a baby, and he'd had seizures, but hasn't had any in the 16 years I've loved him!! We also have two rescue cats - real spoiled babies!! Cathy, I hope you've enjoyed reading about our full house! Oh, we are also multi-generational here too: my daughter has us all living in her modest home! There's my daughter, her husband, her 17 y/o son, her 19 y/o daughter, her two step daughters, me, my former foster daughter (who is sister to my bio kids) and her daughter! I send much & many Blessings to You and Your Family!!!!

Hi @Cheryl - what a wonderful life you’ve given your animals - thank you for telling us about them.

I think you and your wonderful husband are as adorable as the house :) - And Pico, I can empathise, I recently chose to give up my rescue dog due to his size and the size of my tiny apartment here in Sydney, when my vet told me he anticipated Tom would grow to 50kgs ( I was told 25-30) it seemed unfair on him...we make the best choices for our dogs sometimes.

Hi @Mary - sorry for the confusion - I meant “spring”:) We leave the Yukon in October and return in April...usually. Thanks for your nice comments - we feel very fortunate to get to do this!

My thoughts exactly! Everything is gorgeous!

Exactly, it was so beautiful.. ❤️❤️ I could actually myself living in this lovely tiny home.. .

Amen to that. My husband just turned 60 and is unemployed for the first time in 40 years. I’m ecstatic, hoping he learns time is everything not $$. Just shared your post with him. Stay well.🙏🏼

A big house with rooms separated...how can you call it tiny house "

@@actualangel5133 It's a 400sq feet home. It IS small. Just that the way they have laid it out and the furniture they have used make it look a lot more spacious. My apartment is exactly the size of this house but it looks much smaller.

@@actualangel5133 In early "tiny house" days, TINY was an apt adjective because the dwellings really were tiny. Today I think "tiny house" is more a trend or lifestyle than anything else. This home is stunning, well thought out with beautiful personal touches. But they have more "stuff" than I do in my 1300 s.f. house which is simple & comfy. We're entitled to call things whatever we choose. It doesn't necessarily mean others will see it as such.

Yes, not loft💃🏾

This is playing tiny house!

Yes she is, I love her style, this house is gorgeous, beautiful lot as well. One of the best I've seen

I agree. She is amazing. And their house is perfect

Agree! I really enjoyed listening to her speaking 🥲

What a lovely thing to say - thank you! Cathy

I agree. I was about to say this is the most tastefully decorated tiny home I've seen

I felt that lol

It is, the outdoor space is awesome

Hello Susan how are you doing!!

Agreed, but some of us, especially if we don't have another person to pool resources with, have to work longer in order to later have enough money to eat and live. Life is a mix of circumstances and choices that have consequences in the later years. You don't need to have "so much money," but you do need "enough" to get by. I appreciate how grateful this couple is for their circumstances. Seem like wise and lovely people.

I agree. In Argentina people retire at 60-65 except for teachers, who retire at 50-55. And I'm a teacher. Love this lifestyle 😁

Watching my dad grow up and stress about money all the time to find out he only had a year to live because of cancer change his view on life and for me to I believe in having less and enjoying life more in the moment.

67 is the pension age in my country. People here spend like millionaires, therefore have no money to retire early.

@deekat327 yea I saw that and was wondering if she or her artist friends did them... I'm sure it's a mix of both.

I love them too! Too many tiny homes are inundated with windows which, I get that they make maximum use of light, but lack a personal touch in decor. I know that the goal is to downsize but it's nice to see a few heirlooms here and there. Gives it that cozy intimate feeling.

It is decorated beautifully and tastefully. Everything is just so cohesive, it's great!

It reminds me of Leonid Afremov pieces.....Love him!

Thank you so much @Mari - we feel very fortunate to have this life:)

@@larrybill2661 All good thank you.

@@marilouw207 Good morning Mari

@@marilouw207 Are you there?

What a nice thing to say - thank you! Cathy

After remodeling our last house “pot drawers” will forevermore be in our home. Beautiful home!

@@Ladybug68324 I had my kitchen remodeled in 2016 and put in all drawers, except for under the sink and one skinny door for cuttings boards, wire racks and sheet pans. The drawers are awesome!

And the pillows too!

My thoughts exactly!!!

Loved it when she said, "I don't trust anyone who doesn't have a junk drawer." 😆

LOL !!

I can relate. lol

She will trust me very, very much. Lol.

A. R. Hahahaha me too. Cathy is right

well mine is a bag. i need my drawers within my small one bedroom apartment. i have no storage closet so I make do. i am from NyC and we used to use old suitcases. i took my stuff out of the pantry and use it for christmas stuff, luggage and tools. i cannot live likr a person fom Arkansas. i notice Midwesterners waste their spaces. thy turn a spare room into storage when they have sheds, attics, and garages. i call that unappreciative. which tellyou the truth Consummerism comes from there. not the east Coast.

Thank you very much, we are glad you like it.

I LOVE YOUR TINY HOUSE. Enjoy .

She said in response to another comment that they chose not to have a washer/dryer. They use facilities that are available to all the residents.

They've articulated so well the concepts of freedom and ownership of time. ♥️ #staywell everyone.

Me too xx
