Guillaume and Jenna split up I believe in 2016. Not sure why but then again not really the point of the channel! Was wondering if we would see him again and if he is living tiny still though!!? Hope that helps! If you go to her website I believe she has an about section that gives a bit of detail about her journey and travels!!
Not sure why people are saying this is unfair to the kids... The parents clearly stated that they were planning a larger home because they wanted the kids to have more space as they grow. What's the problem?
It also doesn’t hurt kids to share space and rooms and have less privacy....I think they will be less likely to turn into self centered entitled little people living this way....and the world has enough of them already!
I had a quilt made from my mothers favorite dresses. She passed away at age 38 and I was 12. Really was one of the best things I have other than pics to remember my mom. I love these guys way of living. So inspiring.
Totally agree! Not only that but these kids are learning some good lessons and morals if you think about it. They learn how to share space with others and being in such a small space teaches them that life is not material based and how to keep your home clutter-free and organized which are very important skills to have in this life! Lol
munna k it's a great way to keep memories! I was a competitive swimmer for 8 years and I had a ton of team t-shirts left over that we made into a quilt. I love it!
As someone else mentioned, SMEG is Italian and quite expensive. The German brand that has similar fridges is called LIEBHERR, and these have way more freezer space than SMEG and are (at least here in Germany) half the price.
This is the happiest family I have ever seen in any tiny house video! Everyone was laughing and smiling. They all seemed so happy and friendly. I would be happy to have them as friends. Their kids also seem happy, and even their dog is great, too! They really made their little house charming. It works for them. Terrific video!
No, thats not right.. thats actually quite rude, that's a generation of being poor.. When your daughter is old enough, tell her to get a right job thats pay alot of money to get that out of your mind.
What I gathered from your comment is that people may use tiny house living as an excuse to live a mediocre lifestyle. I would agree with you if I take you correctly. I think all of us should reach for the stars. However, not at the cost of being out of our budgets or at the cost of others. And since, it is not the cost of other things, then we are able to achieve the bigger dreams - whether it be save for that bigger house, that property, or that vacation, or spend for other things that matter to us - to support ideologies, movements, missions…
Put it this way, they started off with a house and most likely no funds for the kids college. Now, afterwards they thought ahead and decided to be mortgage free AND save money for the KIDS...PLUS help them be 1 step ahead of the game. NOW, what does that do? It now helps the child(Now a man going to college) be worry free of a home to pay for while pursuing their goals and in what field of work they'd like to get into. This just gives their grandchildren to be ahead of the game because their parents thought ahead. It's smart in my opinion. At the same time it helps bond more with family, nowadays it's more people on screens like we are doing so now....
I hate my furniture, but my wife tells me this every time I mention it. I can't wait until they're old enough for me to own something comfortable to sit on.
I watch every tiny house show, nearly every UA-cam channel... These two are one of my favorites ever. Love their personality, love the house, love the nerdiness. Idris, Doctor Who! I thought "no, no way!" when she said the name of the house. Awesome.
Exactly! Also, love the integration of pieces of things they wanted to keep/remember, into things that were daily use or decorative items. On the personality front, they seem very cool- they remind me of Simon and Martina.
From the start, Ryan was very helpful and is continuing to be helpful about his ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 Plans . Also, they have answered all the questions I have asked & I got outstanding support from his My Shed Plans full package.
The hipsy/gypsy vibe is real too.. but maybe not relatable to you? It just goes to show that people from all walks of life are attracted to tiny house living.
I have watched a huge number of tiny house videos. Usually my thoughts are along the lines of, I like the bathroom design, or, what a great idea for storage. This time I'm just thinking, what a lovely couple. No wonder there are so many sleep overs. They're so real. I do quite like the house too. It seems to really suit them, and that's what is most important with a tiny house.
I know a lot of people will probably frown upon 3 children in a tiny house; but honestly, they are in a lot better shape than most of us. they have no debt and love within their means. I really appreciate what the son said he. Asically said in the big house everyone was doing their own thing, in the tiny house there's more family time. Just goes to show kids don't need things, they need time and attention
The break down of the American family started with central heat, got more isolated as went from wood and coal to gas and electric. Once upon a time you NEEDED to share a bed to keep warm at night! World changed so fast it’s little wonder so many people are depressed, feeling isolated, lost and lonely! Families giving young children own rooms filled with STUFF instead off attention and love, bigger homes where you hardly see ANYONE!
This is one of the most satisfying tiny house videos I’ve seen so far. Their energy and chemistry is so Corny and entertaining like omg I would love a fun uno and tequila night with these two. ❤️😊
@@ltiya75islearning82 It's a half-wall that only goes up as high as the top bunk in the kids room - so that top bunk has a view rigth across to the parents' room with only a couple of open-backed bookshelves in the way of a clear view of their bed.

@@rorysmom3 I believe it is handmade on their own or by a family member ... It is very very special , unique and nice - I like all the ways this couple keep memories !! 😎
I love making T shirt quilts . I’ve seen couples in their senior years who’ve carted around boxes of favorite tees for decades have tears in their eyes when their memories are stitched together in beautiful cohesiveness . As a quilter , I learn so much about my friends when I see these memories get joined together in a future heirloom! This couples is well made and so interesting !
This is how family life SHOULD be. The fact that they live in close quarters means that they are in constant contact and don't lose that heart connection with one another. Awesome.
lemurian chick, I get what you are saying. But where do they go when they need some time to be alone? Probably they will have to learn to build walls inside of them, like the ones I had growing up and sharing my room with my sister.
I often wonder why people freak out about this too. Do they not realize that it was in the last 100 years that it became common place for everyone to have their own space. Especially when they're kids, it's really not necessary. Once they become teenagers I can understand it a bit better, but kids don't need their own rooms.
Such a cute and inspiring family. I'm not sure that I'd be into the whole tiny house thing....but smaller homes seem appealing to me as of late....I'd probably require at least 900 sq ft for this size family.....but I love the idea of living a minimal lifestyle like this....and while I used to think that all kids having their own room and having a large kitchen etc etc was important....watching videos like this is having me change my point of view on that and made me realize that all that "extra" space isn't really necessary, and maybe aiming for a "smaller" ( but still good quality) lifestyle/living space is a smarter way to go.
When the kids get older, they will need more space. I know cause I had to share a tiny bedroom with two brothers. I think it works now that they are young, but I bet they'll want and need space
We live in a 1000 sqft 3 bedroom house :) Its me, my fiance, and our 5 year old son. It's the perfect size! Plenty of renovation room for later too... Attic, basement. :3
i like how this channel actually seems real. they aren't trying to act like anything and the whole tour is kinda free styled. there not afraid to show their messy cabinets or their kids messy closets. keep up the great work! :)
Omgoodness that quilt!!! Perfect! Every year I ask my husband to please go through his T shirts, to please lower the numbers. He has 3 dressers. 2 of which are long dressers full and I mean stuffed to the brim full of shirts, from college till now. He is 55. I always wonder what to get my husband because he has everything. He has shirts that are so full of stains and holes... cutting the front face and making him a blanket of memories! Bam 💥 I'm starting my project ASAP!!!! Hahahaha brilliant!!!! Love the new home! Congrats 🎈🎊🎉🍾
OK Jenna!....I am currently beginning a build - I have spent my entire summer '17 scouring YT for TH dwellers who have 1+ children older than 3!!!! Thank you for helping me realize that the "nay-Sayers" who doubt that I will be able to live comfortably with an 11 & 13 year old in my TH are absolutely misguided. I also want to thank Kim/ Raul for sharing their life in a 3 kid Tiny with me. My hats are off to you Jenna for this TH Mission - I pray that more people will be inspired to build these affordable dwellings so we can give up top-heavy mortgages and enjoy LIFE more abundantly, as God intended. THGJ Rocks👍🏾😄
You might find some luck google families living in RV's & travelling around the USA. There are a lot of videos out there. While it's not quite the same thing, it might give you some confidence that you're not the only one living in small spaces with kids, and maybe some ideas.
Ahh, what a fantastic family and a great tiny. You can tell it's built for them, by them. Too many tiny houses seem to have a goal of being "instagrammable" first and homes second, so this comes across as a true gem. Fell in love with the them all, too!
The quilt is awesome! Hope things continue to go well as the kids get older and grow physically...Nice space! You guys are so sweet and funny...I love the way you share the same lifestyle and love what you do...
What a great family! They have been so creative to make sure the important things in life are still enjoyed. And they’ve put their family first - the most important part of all.
I love that they consider their children's needs for when they grow older. I can't imagine that the kids will always agree with being in a tiny home as they get into their teen years but I don't think any of us really wanted to be at home regardless of size. Glad they're making it work. Seem like lovely people and this was a wholesome watch ^-^
@@hinahinananoha7783 None? Idk what you're asking. Kids are going to have opinions on where they live and parents can do with that information what they want. I was merely observing the fact that the natural progression of growing up is wanting more privacy and it seems these parents are willing to consider that for the future because it's what they deem is better for their family. So why is that a problem?
Reading Harringway Privacy is not set notion, you can have privacy behind a screen or curtain, or a loft, like they do. Sure teenagers can express their opinion. But they don't have a say in buying a more expensive place, especially if the family idea is that of minimalism. Then again, I doubt parents like that would bring up a typical materialist who needs a lot things and his/her own room to fill with them.
@@hinahinananoha7783 all they’re saying was that it was great that their parents are already considering moving into a bigger home for kids privacy. i watch tiny tours a lot and a lot of them don’t really consider the kids privacy in their teen years (i get that u don’t think think it’s a set notion but it should be considered bc as we get older privacy is something we all deserve). all she was saying was that it was very sweet that they already had a plan for their children’s sake when they need more privacy, not that the children get to choose to move the whole family into a bigger home
@Lilman Yellow did you watch the video? They discussed the fact that they have been saving for the past couple years and hope to have enough to build a 500 sf home by the time the oldest turns 13 yo.. that way he can have some privacy... I’m guessing they will have a first floor master bedroom and the 3 kids get to share the 2 lofts...
I think it's great until a certain age. We have a boy and girl who are 11 and 12. They shared the same room and started to have a hard time last year. So if we built a tiny house they would need seperate lofts. I have seen tiny homes with 2 lofts but not 3. As a parent I'd like a door on my room for alone time. Little things to think about when purchasing or building.
@@suestutzle2779 Exactly! There is absolutely no reason not to share a room, I bet they are very close and very comfortable around opposite sex from a young age. I also think this individual space is first world or should I say American idea, tinny is standard in Europe and other parts of the world. There is sense of family in sharing.
There are tiny houses out there with 3 bedrooms that close the doors. Search with that title and I'm sure you'll come up with suggestions. I just think it's cruel when parents make children live in opposite lofts without doors. It's very tricky when it's a family.
My husband and I have been talking about building Tiny Houses for a few years now! This family seems SO much more realistic than the other families I’ve seen on these style channels. That was our giant concern, the amount of families that didn’t feel typical.
I love this family !!! And, the tiny house ! And, what they did with there stuff. Outstanding quality of life for everyone, focusing on essentials of human interaction, instead of isolationism in huge useless space houses. Bravo! Debt-free living and the ability to save money for the future.
First happy couple I've seen on a tiny house video! The hand rails on the stairs ... I think that's essential but you usually don't see them in tiny houses.
This family is so rare-they seem to be happy living with each other.And this should be the way for everyone.May this family be blessed with happiness & good health always.
I love these people. Some posts worry about the children perhaps having angst by not having their own rooms or privacy, but I also believe children are products of what we teach them. Their children have learned a measure of sacrifice and know their parents are working towards a better life. The kids are probably included in the talks on finances etc...and are more mature than most kids their age. Kudos to this quirky, nerdy family.
I love the whole house, but I adore the quilt made of t-shirts. I am quite nerdy too but I turn mine into pillows. This idea is amazing too. What a lovely family and what a wonderful home they have.
definitely my favorite tour so far. the family seems so loving and fun and the house itself is beautiful while staying realistic (not like most boho-aesthetic vans that aren't actually practical) also, i LOVEEE the quilt. such a good idea.
This family is a hoot. They had me laughing the whole time! What an awesome experience to give their family! It made me happy to hear the kids say they loved it bc of the family time ❤️
People with tiny houses just seem to be the sweetest most easygoing human beings I swear a few of these the people have made me cry. I love these videos and I love these people.
"Idris" was one of my favorite episodes! Your home is fantastic. You remind me of my daughter and son-in-law....they are so nerdy. They had a Doctor Who theme wedding, and he, the best man and groomsmen all wore superhero tshirts under their tuxes for which they proudly displayed at the end.
This is by far one of my fave tiny homes & fave families on this channel! Loving how chill they are & how they are dedicated to experiencing life to it’s fullest! Very inspirational:)
This tiny house and family is the best of all the videos I have seen, the space the atmosphere the love they have for the kids and themselves omg this is just what a family should do
I want that fridge!! I am so glad they are making this work for their family of 5. It would be great for an update when the kids are about 3-5 years older.
I also appreciate that the parents gave their children about as much space as they have for themselves. With the children having a lot more headroom to make having a third person in that space possible. It's also important that each child has their own bed, because a sibling stepping on the foot of your bed to leave the room before you're awake is far less disruptive than having to share a sleeping surface where you can easily bump into each other. Once the youngest kid is tall enough to take up the entire length of their bed, this probably won't work very well. But by that point they have either saved up for a larger one, or have bought an extra room that they can tow separately with an SUV. 2+ adults means 2 trailers are possible if needed.
So many good vibes! Lot's of humor and acceptance. The kids are being raised in a positive environment. If adults believe tiny living is better because we need less, kids need little more than a safe, happy place.
What a wonderful family and you captured the best of them beautifully. This is my favorite in your series (and I'm sure I've seen at least 75% of them).
blairbushproject Yes but if you live in a culture where it is normal to have separate rooms, this is ridiculous. Most of cultures like the ones that live in tiny little huts also don't care about fucking their brother, sister or even parent. So that says a lot. If these people want their children to think it is normal to have a wank when their little sibling is laying in the bed above them, fair enough, but to normal people that is sickening.
Cynthia Bernardy sex between siblings is more common with separate rooms. I know your fears dominate your perceptions but it’s not the realistic life. Separate sleeping is possible by living together in a group living space. When it comes to saving money separate space sleeping is a privilege not a necessity. The comment was the focus which is what we should focus on. And that’s the poor Kids living without privacy. Living without privacy does not stunt potential. There are plenty of examples of Kids who grew up with ample privacy that turned into murderous felons. Menendez! And many others.
blairbushproject I highly doubt that. When teens start wanting that kind of stuff, they do not want their siblings in their bedroom being able to see or hear it all. It will result in either kids wanking off in the outdoors, for everybody to see, or kids wanking of with their little siblings, and both of it is absolutely disgusting. Teenagers need their own private space.
I absolutely love this!! My husband and I are giant nerds (and a family of 5) and have been considering a tiny home. I'm always amazed on watching it all fit!!
"Make sure you like your kids, and your wife before living in a Tiny House".... I'd call that good advice!
lol that was great ..thanx for the video
Lovely family (including the dog). And very good ideas too. Could tell you had a lot of fun making this video.
Love also, the "for adult time, we turn on the dryer." lol!

I'm not sure that I'd be into the whole tiny house thing....but smaller homes seem appealing to me as of late....I'd probably require at least 900 sq ft for this size family.....but I love the idea of living a minimal lifestyle like this....and while I used to think that all kids having their own room and having a large kitchen etc etc was important....watching videos like this is having me change my point of view on that and made me realize that all that "extra" space isn't really necessary, and maybe aiming for a "smaller" ( but still good quality) lifestyle/living space is a smarter way to go.
When the kids get older, they will need more space. I know cause I had to share a tiny bedroom with two brothers. I think it works now that they are young, but I bet they'll want and need space
We live in a 1000 sqft 3 bedroom house :) Its me, my fiance, and our 5 year old son. It's the perfect size! Plenty of renovation room for later too... Attic, basement. :3
beautiful family inside & out x
i like how this channel actually seems real. they aren't trying to act like anything and the whole tour is kinda free styled. there not afraid to show their messy cabinets or their kids messy closets. keep up the great work! :)
Omgoodness that quilt!!! Perfect! Every year I ask my husband to please go through his T shirts, to please lower the numbers. He has 3 dressers. 2 of which are long dressers full and I mean stuffed to the brim full of shirts, from college till now. He is 55.
I always wonder what to get my husband because he has everything. He has shirts that are so full of stains and holes... cutting the front face and making him a blanket of memories! Bam 💥
I'm starting my project ASAP!!!! Hahahaha brilliant!!!! Love the new home! Congrats 🎈🎊🎉🍾
MzClementine thats perfekt!! :) ;) :D
MzClementine g.
MzClementine I got the shirt problem with the hubby to,he's 58'i sneak a couple out here an there an put em up in the garage
MzClementine how can i DIY a quilt like this? Or someone makes it online?
they're such a cool family and their tiny house is beautiful 🥺
These are my friends in my head. I love them!!! They seem so damn happy and absolutely in sync with each other.
lol
OK Jenna!....I am currently beginning a build - I have spent my entire summer '17 scouring YT for TH dwellers who have 1+ children older than 3!!!! Thank you for helping me realize that the "nay-Sayers" who doubt that I will be able to live comfortably with an 11 & 13 year old in my TH are absolutely misguided. I also want to thank Kim/ Raul for sharing their life in a 3 kid Tiny with me. My hats are off to you Jenna for this TH Mission - I pray that more people will be inspired to build these affordable dwellings so we can give up top-heavy mortgages and enjoy LIFE more abundantly, as God intended. THGJ Rocks👍🏾😄
You might find some luck google families living in RV's & travelling around the USA. There are a lot of videos out there. While it's not quite the same thing, it might give you some confidence that you're not the only one living in small spaces with kids, and maybe some ideas.
What a jolly, intelligent couple. I like these folks!!!!! AND their wonderful home . Thanks. Love from San Diego, CA.
Jolly? Ho ho ho?
Ahh, what a fantastic family and a great tiny. You can tell it's built for them, by them. Too many tiny houses seem to have a goal of being "instagrammable" first and homes second, so this comes across as a true gem. Fell in love with the them all, too!
Love their home and what a great family! Thank you for sharing!
Sarah Lovestocraft hhi

What a positive, fun and still super practical family. Love their house and them! Great video Jenna!
The quilt is awesome! Hope things continue to go well as the kids get older and grow physically...Nice space! You guys are so sweet and funny...I love the way you share the same lifestyle and love what you do...
Love the house AND the family! Nerds rule the world! ;)
No they don’t jocks rule the world
Nerds ftw. I wanna have a tiny house dedicated to dungeons and dragons lol
I love how much the parents clearly love and appreciate each other. ❤
I want to be friends with these guys so badly, their energy/vibes are just EVERYTHING
What a great family! They have been so creative to make sure the important things in life are still enjoyed. And they’ve put their family first - the most important part of all.
I totally get why all the kid’s friends want to hang out there. What a great family!
I love that they consider their children's needs for when they grow older. I can't imagine that the kids will always agree with being in a tiny home as they get into their teen years but I don't think any of us really wanted to be at home regardless of size.
Glad they're making it work. Seem like lovely people and this was a wholesome watch ^-^
Reading Harringway Agree? I am for respectful parenting, but what kind of say do children have in a size of a house???
@@hinahinananoha7783 None? Idk what you're asking. Kids are going to have opinions on where they live and parents can do with that information what they want. I was merely observing the fact that the natural progression of growing up is wanting more privacy and it seems these parents are willing to consider that for the future because it's what they deem is better for their family. So why is that a problem?
Reading Harringway Privacy is not set notion, you can have privacy behind a screen or curtain, or a loft, like they do. Sure teenagers can express their opinion. But they don't have a say in buying a more expensive place, especially if the family idea is that of minimalism. Then again, I doubt parents like that would bring up a typical materialist who needs a lot things and his/her own room to fill with them.
@@hinahinananoha7783 all they’re saying was that it was great that their parents are already considering moving into a bigger home for kids privacy. i watch tiny tours a lot and a lot of them don’t really consider the kids privacy in their teen years (i get that u don’t think think it’s a set notion but it should be considered bc as we get older privacy is something we all deserve). all she was saying was that it was very sweet that they already had a plan for their children’s sake when they need more privacy, not that the children get to choose to move the whole family into a bigger home
@Lilman Yellow did you watch the video? They discussed the fact that they have been saving for the past couple years and hope to have enough to build a 500 sf home by the time the oldest turns 13 yo.. that way he can have some privacy...
I’m guessing they will have a first floor master bedroom and the 3 kids get to share the 2 lofts...
I think it's great until a certain age. We have a boy and girl who are 11 and 12. They shared the same room and started to have a hard time last year. So if we built a tiny house they would need seperate lofts. I have seen tiny homes with 2 lofts but not 3. As a parent I'd like a door on my room for alone time. Little things to think about when purchasing or building.
tiny/minimal living is what YOU make it.....not what others are doing....You are right. Always go the route the fits your personality
I was 17 and I still share the same bed as my brother. We have bigger space outside and I'm outside most of the time 😂😂😂
My husband grew up sharing a room with his sister who is 14months younger than him. They did this all their lives until the first one got married!!!
@@suestutzle2779 Exactly! There is absolutely no reason not to share a room, I bet they are very close and very comfortable around opposite sex from a young age. I also think this individual space is first world or should I say American idea, tinny is standard in Europe and other parts of the world. There is sense of family in sharing.
There are tiny houses out there with 3 bedrooms that close the doors. Search with that title and I'm sure you'll come up with suggestions. I just think it's cruel when parents make children live in opposite lofts without doors. It's very tricky when it's a family.
My husband and I have been talking about building Tiny Houses for a few years now! This family seems SO much more realistic than the other families I’ve seen on these style channels. That was our giant concern, the amount of families that didn’t feel typical.
A family that laughs together, stays together. Love their humor and their outlook on life. Also great designed tiny house!
What a sweet family! :) Thanks for this great tour! x
What a wholesome family and relationship 🥺 Their love and character is so clear!
I'm not a nerd, but I love this family and their tiny house. I was smiling the whole time I was watching this video. Best wishes to them.
"I'm not a nerd."
You're a nerd.
really enjoyed seeing this family, and their space! :D
I just LUV LUV LUV this COUPLE THEY ARE AWESOME
Turn on the dryer......
LOL!
Zainab Ahmed so true! 😆
Zainab Ahmed it shakes the house too. Lol
@@yungstallion2201 Yeah I guess! 🙄
I love this family !!! And, the tiny house ! And, what they did with there stuff. Outstanding quality of life for everyone, focusing on essentials of human interaction, instead of isolationism in huge useless space houses. Bravo! Debt-free living and the ability to save money for the future.
First happy couple I've seen on a tiny house video! The hand rails on the stairs ... I think that's essential but you usually don't see them in tiny houses.
i like how they kept their memories thats nice
I absolutely love this family! Seem like awesome people to hang out with.
This family is so rare-they seem to be happy living with each other.And this should be the way for everyone.May this family be blessed with happiness & good health always.
I love these people. Some posts worry about the children perhaps having angst by not having their own rooms or privacy, but I also believe children are products of what we teach them. Their children have learned a measure of sacrifice and know their parents are working towards a better life. The kids are probably included in the talks on finances etc...and are more mature than most kids their age. Kudos to this quirky, nerdy family.
Moe Wilson o thank goodness someone thinks the same as me
These people speak to my soul so much!
I love how straight up this family is ❤️
I love the whole house, but I adore the quilt made of t-shirts. I am quite nerdy too but I turn mine into pillows. This idea is amazing too. What a lovely family and what a wonderful home they have.
Marta Martrix p
What an amazing family!
Darth is the boss , ha! : )
I love the memories held in different items. And it's a cool family with a nice home.
Like the son mentioned, Family time is everything
Wow this is the cleanest house I ever seen amazing family
What a lovely family, and such a fun and unique tiny home!
definitely my favorite tour so far. the family seems so loving and fun and the house itself is beautiful while staying realistic (not like most boho-aesthetic vans that aren't actually practical) also, i LOVEEE the quilt. such a good idea.
This family is a hoot. They had me laughing the whole time! What an awesome experience to give their family! It made me happy to hear the kids say they loved it bc of the family time ❤️
This is one of my favorite tiny houses!!
what a fun family!
very cool that the couple found + support one another! its so important to share your life with someone who is your best friend!
congrats i see a happy family here
These parents are actually cool as! So many good laughs in this ep.
That quilt, pillows and bears were awesome. I love that!
People with tiny houses just seem to be the sweetest most easygoing human beings I swear a few of these the people have made me cry. I love these videos and I love these people.
"Idris" was one of my favorite episodes! Your home is fantastic. You remind me of my daughter and son-in-law....they are so nerdy. They had a Doctor Who theme wedding, and he, the best man and groomsmen all wore superhero tshirts under their tuxes for which they proudly displayed at the end.
This is by far one of my fave tiny homes & fave families on this channel! Loving how chill they are & how they are dedicated to experiencing life to it’s fullest! Very inspirational:)
This tiny house and family is the best of all the videos I have seen, the space the atmosphere the love they have for the kids and themselves omg this is just what a family should do
cute family...:) nice to be debt free and lead a simple life!
Aww look like a lovely little family! I'm loving what they have done
I want that fridge!! I am so glad they are making this work for their family of 5. It would be great for an update when the kids are about 3-5 years older.
What a great family and such interesting people. If they haven't already they should consider creating a UA-cam channel.
Love the quilt!
What amazing parents! You can tell they're SO happy with their lives. Love it.
8:20 omg he wore a green lantern shirt under his tux on their wedding?!?🤣😂
This may seem like a tiny house to the whole world, but it is actually normal or even a luxury for us ppl in Hong Kong
Krispy and Krunchy BORITO It's only tiny for US and maybe Australia.
@@hinahinananoha7783 yep definitely, cuz it's BIG for Hong Kong
@@hinahinananoha7783 and England.
Pos we might have pretty large people too
I also appreciate that the parents gave their children about as much space as they have for themselves. With the children having a lot more headroom to make having a third person in that space possible. It's also important that each child has their own bed, because a sibling stepping on the foot of your bed to leave the room before you're awake is far less disruptive than having to share a sleeping surface where you can easily bump into each other. Once the youngest kid is tall enough to take up the entire length of their bed, this probably won't work very well. But by that point they have either saved up for a larger one, or have bought an extra room that they can tow separately with an SUV. 2+ adults means 2 trailers are possible if needed.
The tiny house looks big on the outside
It's reverse time lord magic
Goals!!!! Go tiny, already have two kids and husband he just needs a sense of humor like this guy. 😂😂 They are too cute
This family is sweet, but if I was this close to my family 24/7 I would explode.
Geminii44 they live on a 7 acre property they could probably make their own like room outside for privacy
But I bet your family aren't as cool and fun as these nerds! 🤓🥰🤪
So many good vibes! Lot's of humor and acceptance. The kids are being raised in a positive environment. If adults believe tiny living is better because we need less, kids need little more than a safe, happy place.
7:42 His eyes can stare into your soul
That glasses hanger
What a wonderful family and you captured the best of them beautifully. This is my favorite in your series (and I'm sure I've seen at least 75% of them).
I have so many questions to ask them lol I'd love a family like that some day
They seemed so relaxed and so very well adapted to their new environment, I'm glad it works so nicely for them.
That quilt is an awesome idea! Great way to put sentimental garments on display while also downsizing 😍
it's gonna suck when those kids are 13-17 and have no privacy 😂😂
michaella galope that's what the outdoors is for, not being stuck inside I guess
Poor Kids? Most cultures live in tiny houses with their entire families. So to expect separate rooms is a cultural gap.
blairbushproject Yes but if you live in a culture where it is normal to have separate rooms, this is ridiculous. Most of cultures like the ones that live in tiny little huts also don't care about fucking their brother, sister or even parent. So that says a lot. If these people want their children to think it is normal to have a wank when their little sibling is laying in the bed above them, fair enough, but to normal people that is sickening.
Cynthia Bernardy sex between siblings is more common with separate rooms. I know your fears dominate your perceptions but it’s not the realistic life. Separate sleeping is possible by living together in a group living space. When it comes to saving money separate space sleeping is a privilege not a necessity. The comment was the focus which is what we should focus on. And that’s the poor Kids living without privacy. Living without privacy does not stunt potential. There are plenty of examples of Kids who grew up with ample privacy that turned into murderous felons. Menendez! And many others.
blairbushproject I highly doubt that. When teens start wanting that kind of stuff, they do not want their siblings in their bedroom being able to see or hear it all. It will result in either kids wanking off in the outdoors, for everybody to see, or kids wanking of with their little siblings, and both of it is absolutely disgusting. Teenagers need their own private space.
I absolutely love this!! My husband and I are giant nerds (and a family of 5) and have been considering a tiny home. I'm always amazed on watching it all fit!!
