      Yes and no. I absolutely LOVED my Casita but for the way I travel now I really enjoy not having to set up, level, tanks, breakdown etc every time I stop. I will ALWAYS recommend Casitas but I’m enjoying the freedom to move on a whim and parking almost anywhere when traveling. It’s easier to stealth camp in a white “work van” lol

    Hi Christy,
    I noticed in your ‘Living in 84 square feet…’ video what appears to be a ‘shoe rack’ above the entry which appears to be (2) spring loaded tension rods…I will be stealing idea.
    Where did you get the tiny wooden riser that almost fits the tiny shower floor space?
    In the spirit of playing fair…you also pointed out your “very, very fancy trash bag”.
    I hang a garment bag inside the closet that holds an open large grocery store plastic bag for ‘clean’ trash. I started with a cheap garment bag from a dollar store but quickly replaced it with an extra, more ‘manly’ garment bag from Men’s Warehouse. Of course no food scraps go in it. I dispose of food scraps in a disposable plastic tub/with lid (empty yogurt, cottage cheese, etc. container) that I keep in the tiny freezer until it’s full.
    Robert

      Hi Robert, feel free to steal the tension rod idea lol. The Bamboo shower mat was from Amazon amzn.to/3Q9T950

I love the propane so do use it to cook with. and quick heat up in the early hrs. with vent cracked

      Hello my fellow Casita friend :-). Thanks for watching and commenting! As far as the under sink organization, I’m still looking for something better. Currently I store my cutting board and cooking items under there but am looking to add some kind of shelving when I figure that out 🤷🏻‍♀️. I do have the microwave but I’ve seen many people use that space as a pantry with a couple of tiers. I find that I’m often tweaking things when I run across handy storage items, or watch another UA-cam :-). Safe travels out there.
