    All over the world, we have met many people who have lost homes in natural disasters and almost without exception the one thing they all tell us is that the unfortunate event forced them to really consider what's truly important and to focus their attention towards those things. Vicki has done such a fantastic job in building both a home and a life true to her values. We hope you enjoy this tour. With Love, Bryce & Rasa

      Same here. When dad passed away mom didn’t care for anything they owned so everything was given away. They didn’t want me to go there but since have realized their mistake. I’m highly emotional and they didn’t want to deal with a breakdown.
      Then mom passed away 5yrs later and she didn’t have a lot. She didn’t care anymore.
      Then last year my hubby passed away suddenly and I’m going through things that I have and I’m going to be selling a lot of it because I don’t want my sons left to deal with all my collections and so forth.
      Like the saying goes, Once you’ve died, you can’t take it with you. It’s life, but we have to think of who has to go through our belongings and how hard it is on them. I love my kids too much to do that to them.

      Having these "tenants" pays the taxes and for any repairs on the property. Their smart to do this!!!!!

You present each episode as a gem of heartfelt homebuilding no matter how humble or extravagant they appear.

It's so moving to see what profound changes this kind of loss caused in Vicki and how resiliently she has responded. It sounds like her life now is far more peaceful, satisfying and grounded as the result. Her home is stunning, and it truly is a sanctuary. I would say not so much "the opposite of chaos" as the "epitome of serenity!"

    This is my new favorite home. Calmness..tranquility that's what I've felt after the show. When it's time for us to have a new home..Vicky's home will be the model. I fell in love with the paintings on her wall of plants. So peaceful.
    Thumbs up to you Vicky..Bryce and Raisa.

    Vicki's home is absolutely beautiful! Wonder use of space. Her experience with losing her possessions from the earthquake has given her an outlook that shows up in her tiny home! Thanks Bryce and Rasa for presenting Vicki's story to us! Love the kitchen and like how it is a distance from the bathroom and sleeping area!

    This home is beautiful and I love that the owner has processed how they now handle stress and how the home she has created brings her some peace. I also appreciate that the rented piece of land is a decent size, that the owner has not jammed people together for greed. Respect to them too.

    I have enjoyed watching these videos for some years now and am sad that here in the US we are held back from building houses like this by zoning and building code laws. I have shaken my head continually over the urge of my contemporaries (I am 71) to build ever larger and larger houses. WHY? I always ask them this and am greeted with confusion and incredulity. There is a style of building called Earthships designed by Michael Reynolds that has been around since the 1970s that I have always yearned for but like most unconventional building techniques has fought for legal parity. Living a life less impactful (wasteful) has always appealed to me and I am glad to see that some people are doing it successfully. Thank you.

      I am early 60s & my brother is 5 yrs older. He is in process of building a 5,000 sq ft mansion in Virginia. Sounds nuts to me. But he's lived in a small weirdly-laid-out house for decades that was all he could afford in the 80s, so it's hard to fault him for wanting his dream house. Mine would be closer to a tiny than a mansion.

      I know that Vicki is a kiwi living in Australia. But the building codes in New Zealand are not prescriptive - they're based on performance (fit to live, suffisent light, sanitation etc etc) and have to fit into the context of its respective town/city - which again has region specific requirements. Once you get your head around that, it makes sense, and you can get creative

      As a fellow American I believe the resistance against Off Grid living is tied to avarice and corruption more than safety issues. Off Griders are not feeding the power company and tax coffers like traditional home dwellers.

    This reminds of living in an efficiency apartment. You can appreciate having a home that is a simple way to enjoy living in nature. Massive homes with lots of rooms don’t make sense in the long run since you can only be in any part at any given time. This home gives you the sense of enjoyment of having the complete experience anywhere you look.
    Beautifully designed home❤❤❤

    I usually dislike a wardrobe not in the bedroom, but this solution when you can have a sleeping loft and just let it be such really spoke to me. There's plenty of space in the bathroom, and it was also a very calming and beautiful space. One of my favourite tiny houses, definitely.
