I think I'm in love. With the housing that is. I'll have to look into this sort of thing when I graduate. A small place like that is just what a single young woman would need--the pros by far outweigh the cons. :) Wow. I think I’m in love. With the housing that is.

I loved it. The only problem with that lifestyle is having enough room for my books. This tiny house is great, When I was young and single, my pets and I lived in an Airstream by a river. I loved it.

We live on a 1 acre property in Australia with a vegetable garden, chooks, a cat, a dog and lots of room for the kids to play. The neighbours are a good distance and I feel great to have room. I must admit that it would be great to not have a mortgage to pay but if this is the sacrifice I must make to have my house then so be it. Cheers I would go mad living in a tiny house.

It's a way to save big time money. 2. It's a way to not be reliant on your job. 3. It's a way to take your house with you when you move! 4. It's a way to be environmentally friendly. 5. It's a way to reduce clutter and time for cleaning/maintenance in your life. I love this idea for the following reasons:

I've planned on trying something similar for my first house... I didn't realize there was a movement based on it. Haha! Great interview and video. Holy crap, this is freaking awesome.

I've always kind of thought beyond a kitchen bathroom, basic living room and bedroom, you really shouldn't need much more space than that. What a great way to limit your life expenses and really kind of take charge of your life. I like the idea of living in a tiny home for my first house.
