    It's hard not to be completely in love with the design and construction of this amazing shipping container home. Even more impressive than the home though, is Jaimie and Dave, who pushed through some tremendous challenges to make their dream come true. This is a story about finding joy, even in adversity. We hope you enjoy this weeks video! With love, Bryce & Rasa

      Bryce, what is the required up keep on a medal container home? Do they rust away? Would love to know this. Also, it seems like it would be much cheaper to build the same size home with wood vs buying a container.
      With that said, this is a beautiful property & home.

      Y R, Holding hands is magical. I really like your comment. It reminds me of a couple of other stories that are felt thru touching. My youngest daughter read a book and one chapter was on arguing with your husband/wife. She bought a pair of hand cuffs and talked to her husband on what they could try. Argument came up, they got the cuffs and for one hour were chained together. At the hour mark, her husband made her a bubble bath and bathed her... awwww couple goals!

      Yes! Only one other channel on UA-cam I can think of that does that, but they don't focus specifically on tiny houses. They cover all forms of alternative housing. Bryce, however, is a *much* better host in my opinion, and this channel is put together _way_ better than any other channel of it's type. Just seems like they really care about helping people to share their before stories and not just share the Instagram Airbnb IKEA after results.

    One thing that impresses me is that they've been living in the house for three years. In most of the videos, the occupants have spent a short time. I like it that these people have lived there and experienced life there. Also, they are not house bound, but active and outside. That's a real advantage to this type of living. Positive and up beat people, even after much adversity. Good on you.

      I went through this with my partner. I had a brain injury and some other health complications that often made it hard for me to talk, literally saying words or just trying to say them in the way/order I wanted to. Many conversations we had with other people were things that we had discussed in depth as a couple and so we had little (almost unconscious) queues that indicated when I needed him to do the talking because I couldn't get there on my own. Over the years, as I recovered, that dynamic shifted back to me speaking more for myself as I was able to. Having him as verbal backup really helped deal with the stress of socializing when I was feeling impaired cognitively and physically.

      You can tell. It's very slight, but if you've ever heard people who have recovered from strokes, there's a lack of crispness around certain consonants. A fantastic rehabilitation! Love what she said about choosing joy.

    Beautiful home and Beautiful couple. I hope they are blessed with many more wonderful years in their "tiny" home but their "huge" love for each other! I enjoy the inspirational stories so much. Makes a person realize how blessed they truly are. Great choice Bryce and Rasa, thanks so much!!

    What a scary yet beautiful story! I hope to live tiny one day! I live in a townhome mortgage free but I am living with a horrible painful disease and taking care of my home is hard for me. I think a tiny home would be perfect for me. Finding the right land to put it on has been challenging.

    I dont know but, the way they look at each other and the way they hold each other’s hands I can really feel that their love is genuine. A challenge that made them stronger and gave them more reason to appreciate everything. You guys are beautiful. You are an inspiration. God bless you both💓

    I had to stop the video at 6 minutes and 26 seconds to give God a praise! I'm just sitting here looking at tiny home videos because it's my dream thing to do and here goes a word from God! I have recently been feeling very down and out and sad about life and I got a word from this couple. Joy is not ever present, YOU CHOOSE TO BE JOYFUL! Thank you for sharing!

      It wasn't the prettiest butttt you can feel the love, and what that man went through and Having to use the construction of their house as therapy was just so touching !!! Even if the decor is ugly which I wouldn't say that, I'm saying IF****
      It STILL deserves a like because of their story... IMHO

      Yeah I agree.
      Majority of materialistic crap you simply don't need. Satisfaction and mastery of Body and Mind is FAR more pleasurable and rewarding; simply because it takes discipline.
      You can't sell that.
