Awww. She's so cute. She was really nervous speaking in front of the camera, lol. The sound system and party lights scream 20 yr old. It's basically a dorm-room on wheels. She'll add appliances and fixtures as she goes along. I'd love to see a revisit to this tiny house in 2020 to see what it looks like 5 years later. Great job young lady. I can see my daughter doing something like this.
Boop its 2020 and the worlds about to end
Loads of respect for this girl. Great job!
MsSpaceCake agreed
MsSpafceCake meot
It would be nice if all schools taught this skill set to avoid the mortgage trap and allow more freedom to live.
Yes, we should get back to classes about carpentry, metal work, cooking, and nutrition . I think they're very much needed
i love kiwis
Bryce is always excited to see the shitter and the loft. Cheeky bugger.
@@valeriehancotte-galan4790 also instead of forcing sports on us, self-defense should be taught in every school :/ and sports should be something children willingly choose to learn.
Valerie Hancotte-Galan Yes, it’s ironic that the same classes most schools cut due to budget woes, are the very classes that can help students save money!
WOW .... I am seriously "impressed" with this young lady's venture, ..... She has done an excellent job, with her home ..... Inspiring !!!!
I agree
Rick S. Finally a mature comment on here :) I agree 👍
Love your videos they are amazing I am 14 and just bought a 36 foot trailer to start a tiny house these videos are really giving me good ideas keep them up 😃😃
+Infinity Awesome! Congratulations on starting your build!!! Great stuff. :)
+Infinity. Please film all the stages of your build and post it on You Tube. Do you have family/friends helping you with your build??
+Geny R. Yes I have my dad helping me I was planing on posting the stages :)
+Infinity I too would LOVE to see it :)
+Infinity I am 14 also and am planning on purchasing a tiny house:)
She built a whole house with less money than a year's worth of college tuition. That's insane
Finally a comment which is not abt the two flirting
How expensive is college tuition where you live?! That's insane. I know I live in a socialist country and app, but the idea of having to pay for SCHOOL? Not a fan.
@@tetrisgoat Well I'm happy for you, but you don't have to rub it in. ☹
@@tetrisgoat US schools associated with the state (public) schools offer instate tuition for 5-20k tuition a year. Private schools here cost 45k. Both figures only cover classes and campus resources. It does not cover food, housing, books, etc. Total comes out to about 70k if you go to out of state school or private school. What a lot of people do is go to local college for 2 years, then transfer to a traditional uni. Those local colleges cost less than 2k for tuition but generally lack the affluent connections to be made, lack a sense of unity/oneness. People are not proud to go to local community college and it's quite sad to be looked down upon or pitied because you don't spend 70k for something that should be free.
@@Officernoob There is a higher tuition cost, but you forget about financial aid and scholarships. My tuition and books were paid for by that combination.
He's friendly with everyone like this. His partner usually films also so people need to stop looking into things.
I agree, he is always nice with everyone.
What, did people try to ship them in the comments? Creepy people are creeeepy..
“My dad was completely encouraging and said we’ll do it together.” That’s what dads do.
She has created a lovely home. I got the giggles watching her, she was a little nervous which really just shows the genuine authenticity of the interview. An absolutely gorgeous view. Whenever i watch these videos they really move me to want to visit New Zealand. So happy you are back showing us the beauty and ingenuity of these homes and their owners! :-)
She should be so proud of herself.
I love her smile and confidence shown in the photo taken while building process!! Love her wild eyes. And for the location....... I truly envy her so much
Bryce almost seemed more excited than she did about some of the home's features 😂 The car system for audio was a brilliant idea
I don't know why I kept smiling with joy all throughout this video that was awesome : )
+Marker1229 Glad it put a smile on your face today! Thanks for watching! :)
I've developed this strange obsession for tiny homes, but being from the Netherlands it doesn't seem realistic (legally and financially) to ever do something like this myself. I have to say, this channel always makes me want to let go of convention and just try it anyway.. I love how the questions are focussed on the experience of having built and lived in these small homes. Also, this home looks awesome in a minimalistic way. But I'd never be okay with so little stuff. Will just keep dreaming of one day building a tiny home myself, but until then am looking forward to all your videos.
Same i live in the netherlands as well :(
Check tinyfundy!
Its funda for tiny homes :)
Heyy!!! Ben je bezig met een Tiny House bouwen?
@@jessmyzelf5912 nog steeds aan het nadenken over een Tiny House?
That silence of either awkwardness or connection at 4:07 😂 💝
i was just thinking this lol. especially when he says well have to give it a try later and does the eyebrows at the camera man . shes like the neighbors can deff hear lol
Camerawoman she‘s his wife 😂
Gabriella, this video has been so inspiring to me!!! I am 28 and have been dreaming of building my own tiny house for a year already. Thank you for sharing your story!
The way they are looking at each other 😁
This entire interview was short from the heart of *AWKWARD*!!!
Most awkward interview *EVER*
Agreed. Maybe it's a cultural thing, maybe it's because they are both young, but either way the point of the video was to show case the house, not their flirting.
I agree lol. Im literally cringing.
But it's cute
They weren't flirting. That's how people are in NZ.
I'm glad im not the only one that thought that
I don’t see any flirting at all. I have seen him trying out other tiny home owner’s bed. She is just giggly likely due to being on camera.
Yeah, Bryce is always excited and all smiles in _any_ tiny house. He just loves his job ig
You got it right. In fact she is so nervous she can barely explain anything - he is trying to carry on. It's an awkard shoot if anything.
Very right!
Agreed. A lot of people giggle when on camera or nervous etc. I honestly can’t see any flirting
@@missjo174 defo see the flirting. I mean do you see how bryce was eyeing the house, and all the compliments he was giving it? So lots of flirting, just not with the girl. lol
I think this is the only video where I've seen Bryce use the word "cute" to describe a tiny house, not once, but twice!
And let's not forget that awkward cute hug in the beginning and the way he keeps looking at her when they're in her bathroom.
Man oh man, you guys were staring HARD at one another, good on ya mate! ;)
+Lightning xVx Yeah, there seemed to be a massive amount of flirtation going on here lol. She's a cute and bubbly girl, so I can totally understand.
+Lightning xVx Must be a cultural thing, because he keeps getting comments like this. As a Kiwi this doesn't seem flirty to me, just a fairly typical interaction.
+livinggreen Yeah Ive noticed how Australians and New Zealanders are really friendly. Very cool people...
+Lightning xVx 11:46 :) Where are those eyes lookin? haha
+HeartlandRanchTV "bubbly girl" imfao XD
She's just an all rounder and amazing! I'm actually jealous!
he was so flirting, both of them lol all giggly
Sonia Romero yea thats what it thought too! lol
Sonia Romero Thought the same thing ... chemistry!
Sonia Romero 😂😂
he was getting ready😝
Sonia Romero I ship them
they're so giggly and flirtatious and adorable. so pure
She also seems to be a minimalist. Which is awesome.
I really enjoyed the minimalism and simplicity of this one! Super cute house!
I am SO impressed with her! I wouldn't know where to begin on something like this, but I definitely want to learn.
Her dad probably built it for her. She doesn't seem to know about the actual construction of the shed. My 13 year old can describe how she helped build her bedroom better than this adult. Playing in cement, using hammers and drills is always fun when they are 8 years old.
Good for her and her dad for his support. Most 18 year old don't have an idea what they are going to do. But I think it is great of the education system to have them look for something to do with a passion that they have. I mean wow she has her own place she can add things to the house as she see the need. Not what others have done and she may not have a need for. Like she needed a very nice sound system so she put one in. I like it great job Gabriella.
sorry to fuck this up but you guys really look cute together you should really ask her out. just an opinion.
Depp's Music Channel yeeessss take her out.love is in the air for both of them👫💞💘💌💌💘💞💘💌💘💞💌💌💘💞💘💌💘💞
This young lady is legit. Cheers.
Wonderful home, fantastic view across the harbour and an incredibly inspiring young woman. Can understand with Wellington's winds why she had the place tied down quite so well. Thanks Bryce and welcome back!!!
Thanks Sharon! And yes, Wellington weather can get pretty crazy. Totally worth a few windy days for that location though! :)
*Who's watching this again on 2019 and scroll down the comments ALL SAYS THEY'RE FLIRTING, THEY'RE IN LOVE? LOL* 😂
It's super annoying to read those comments. What even. (So glad to have found your comment BTW)
Ikr lol
For a person who has been glued to watching every available episode,I must say that I found this particular one very interesting cause it was not about the design and ideas,but about the way this amazingly social lady explained everything that everyone was saying. I heard everyone else but I felt her explanations. It's also the only episode I posted a comment in as well. Great presenting Bryce as usual,ignore the gutter brained viewers. Looking forward to more shows,who knows maybe one day I might end up on one of your episodes...
As soon as I heard New Zealand I took my earbuds out and belly flopped against the wall, IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ALL MY LIFE.
Gabrielle in one word: "Yeah!"
I just can't imagine Bryce's reaction when he reads all those "flirty and flirty" comments 😂😂😂
lol for real! He is just being himself and everyone is like "He's flirting!" 🤣
he's always charming and interested in whoever he's filming it's clearly part of who he is, but I'm sure that's as far as it goes, get your minds out of the gutter people, she's only 19!
She was 20 years old there
Her story is so inspiring I love how simple it was. There wasn't a lot of fancy features and it was all recycled which kept the cost down.
I wish all school curriculum involved being shelf sufficient & thinking about where you are going to live as an "adult". This is definitely work working class taken to an extreme level, well done.
Watching this is making me blush, cringe and smile as if I'm on my first date lol
Him: so what’s your name?
Her: o it’s... yeah
The amount of tiny pauses and just staring is hilarious 😂
Shoe storage? I thought he was going to ask about security. Seriously though, maybe I'm just too much of a city dweller, but her house seems really easy to break into.
I thought the same thing.
If you live in a safe place and don't seem like you have expensive stuff there is no need for a lot of locks etc
same thought here - I kept thinking if I were her mother, the first thing I would do is hire 24-hour security and install them next door - without telling her, of course ;-)
I thought the same thing, it does seem really easy to break in to
Wet moments will surely degrade the woody texture of this home. But it seems very firm and stack. Yeah, the moments i meant was those rainy seasons, not the one you're thinking.
How SEAMLESSLY he converted a Handshake into a Hug !!
Bryce was literally being himself .Curious and appreciative.She giggled bout almost everything.
This is so amazing! I'm 20, and hoping to build my tiny house before I turn 23! :)
Have you started yet?
He was killed
These two look like they're on a first date... tiny house romance!
the camerawoman is - HIS WIFE!!
NEW SERIES QUICK
@@farahfofo601 😂😂😂
I thought the same thing; she seemed so attracted she had trouble putting her sentences together.
is it just me or is he crushing on her?
electrabot me too.
love is in the air 💝💝💝💝💝💘💞💖💞💘💘💞💞💖💖💘💌💌💘💖💖💘💌💞💖💖💘💘💌💝💝💝💝👫
She is 18. He looks like hes over 30. That'd be creepy.
Ashlyn Kind thats not that big of an age gap. haha you're a child
Ashlyn Kind she's actually 20
electrabot oh my god. I never noticed it until so many people pointed it out on the comments. No wonder I'm single.
Such a lovely home built by an 18 year old young talented lady. To be able to
Live in a home that you designed and
buildt . It truly was a lovely home. She
Certainly had talent to build and design
a lovely home to live in.
oh you kiwis and your pronunciation of deck... bless you all :D
OMG they seem so awkward around each other; that is so sweet! I think there is some chemistry in the air!!!!
Hello Joanna
Lol hes posin on her bed!! He was all excited abt doin her video!! Cute
Just watching this for the first time, I seriously kept thinking they were smitten on each other. Maybe the girl just happy go lucky....I have a 17yr. old daughter, cool ideas.
The connection y'all made is what was cute
n BTW she owns a great personality,I love her personality.
I’m rewatching all your old tiny house videos, was wishing we could see updates on more of these folks.
Ok, 3 years later I am researching tiny houses and I am privilege to see this episode. Sparks were flying with these two. Was he married? Did they ever get together. Her home is beautiful, congratulations young lady.
Yes!!! I want to know too
Drinking game: Take a shot when either one of them says "yea".
Jerica Haught I think I'd have alcohol poisoning by the end of the video
Jerica Haught Do Yup Count😂
probably this game needs approx 3 bottles...yea P)
LMAO *dead*
😂🤣🤣
Have wanted to do this for years... awesome to know that there're others in NZ my age too that are also into the whole tiny house movement. Keep up the videos!
It's a fast growing movement here in NZ mate! There will be lots more your age who are building tiny homes soon! :)
+Living Big In A Tiny House I reckon there will be, especially in Auckland...
This is what I think of as a good reason to get into Tiny Houses. A lot of the one's I've seen on this channel have such a high cost and are over-engineered just for the person to say they are living behind their actual home or living on 60 acres. This seems affordable and practical.
There's something about this girl that attracts me to her. Maybe it's her bubbly attitude, maybe it's her laugh, or resourcefulness, but I feel the guy who becomes a part of her life is gonna be very happy.
So much giggling and awkwardness! They clearly like each other. Oh for youth again! Alas! 😌
like others said she's probably nervous being on camera and talking about something as personal as her house. Regarding both laughing and giggling thats probably just human reaction, they spent hours if not days to films this, probably did multiple takes ect so it's natural
Look at that guy lying on bed lol
They were so cute and giggly with each other. Hope they went for dinner.... 😉😊
Lol nah his WIFE is the camerawoman 😉
JAchica11 He has a wife I believe. I think you are projecting.
Awesome effort Gabriella, you truly give me hope that humanity may not be completely spinning into oblivion. Also i'm so happy The Living Big adventure is continuing too in leu of recent events. Power on my friend.
So awesome there's so much that can still be done over time as she evolves into who she'll become which is really something special! Smart woman and she seems like a total doll🤗☺👍
Amazing project by the young girl!
Having a house to call your own at that age is really commendable.
I have watched A LOT of these videos and i can say that either his style of interviewing has changed over the years or there definitely was something awkward between the two😁
They love each other
Before reading all of the comments I thought I was the only one who noticed how into her he was 😂☺️
OMG!! the way he looks at her!!
I just love this girl
does anyone think they would make a good couple
+sscustoms100 Are you going to say that about every girl he interviews?
+Don't Usually Comment mate please
+sscustoms100 chill mate, he's right.
they were flirty with their eyes and seemed a little nervous around each other...lol
+sscustoms100 funny you say this.. as I swore I saw some sparks..
Gabriella has a beautiful minimalist style.
Bonobo3D agreed
She did a great job!! At 18 I had my first baby and first new home...and no, my parents didn't help financially. It was almost too much at my age but doable! Something like this would have been great! She has set a fine example!!! 🤗🤗🤗
Gabriella. You did a really great job. You're a very smart lady. I'm impressed.
Been watching vids from this channel and this happens a lot when the owner is a female, they either squeal uncontrolably or lick their lips or go twitch "hehehahuhihiharharhuhuhuhyumyum" uhm tiny house uhm loft uhm hihihi.. The tension..Lol... This guy has legendary level Charisma with girls..
the camerawoman is - HIS WIFE!!
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
He had ZERO reserve plopping down on her bed! 🤣🤣🤣
@@farahfofo601 Your consistency, man! Thanks for mentioning this everywhere, I would have done that otherwise! These people xD!
Yes yes people got it that more than the House,He found Her so cute and adorable...😚😙😗😆
They're in love!
down to earth, practical. love it. can't wait to build my own
Thanks Bryce - Another fabulous video - your enthusiasm for your work is awesome! All the best,.
Totaly
Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed the vid. Lots more to come! :)
I ma imagining things or this two are flirting ?
Definitely lol
I was just thinking the same thing :)
I was thinking the same :)
naaaaaah lol
Anne Coops omgawwd when he got on the bed I died shoes off and laying all sexy omgawwd
Gabriella is so inspiring. Love this build.
I was smiling the whole time I was watching this video. I enjoyed watching them not the Tiny House. Haha. Though, I was awfully too late to see this. This was already 4 years ago. Anyhow, they really made me SMILE..thanks to both of you.😍😍😊
She's so awkward...xD I am too, so I can't say much, but it was almost painful to watch.
First of all congratulatios for this amazing channel, is one of that I get excited to watch every new video. Congratulatios to gabriella to the dedication to one project to this importance to her life. I live in Brazil and I want so hard to build my own tiny house, my father have one big place with a lot of threes,and is a very amazing place. I´m in the college of architecture and I believe that the tiny house movement is the future of the house in the wolrd. But its so hard to get references of tiny houses that could work in brazil because our weather that could easy pass up to the 35°C. But I´m working in a project for my own house that I´ll build with my own hands, and thanks for the channel tha gives me inspiration to keep working on this project. And wen my house is ready you are invited to meet the brazil and meet my house, you dont have the right to say no! Congratulatios for the channel again. huggies on the heart..
Brother you were blushing.... I used to watch all of your videos.. I really like and planing to built a tiny house for myself as well.
its so cozy. but interior wise i would have painted more of it. because all of the different woods can seem messy
Aww she was so awkwardly cute. You could tell she had a massive crush on him.
You should have done dormers in the loft, it gives more head space, and/or just more space to move around. You could also use the window sills as end tables and if you made them wider you could have storage underneath the window sills 😊
oh jfc, why is everyone insinuating there's sexual tension between the two. chill 😂 yall are making something out of nothing lmao
very smart young person. She will not live in debt this lifetime like many of us. All congrats
Amazing tiny home and dynamic young lady! Love love love the audio sys and the flooring on that main level is gorgeous! Very inspirational!
Hello christine
*These two have chemistry* 🤣
She should be so proud. What a beautiful and self sufficient home. She should be so proud!
What a great project for her (and what an achievement!), well done!!
Great interview as always Bryce👌💖
She seemed really nervous around him. 😂
Yes she's shy
im shy too
*I dare you to count how many times they've said "Yeah"*
Omgggg m nt the only one thinking how they were flirting 😂😂 the girl was blushing alll theee timeeee 😂
These two seems so into each other. It’s cute
I love the accent, but sometimes it makes me do a double take. "recycled deck" did not sound like "deck".
the accent, woman, and house are all cute. well done!
JamesMichaelDoyle &.
Lol
I often notice people commenting on how 'flirty' Bryce is with the women whose homes he is viewing, but I dont see it. Respectful and pleasant - yes. Flirty - no. I see a polite, kind, all around nice guy. He is clearly taken by the lady behind the camera. ♥️
What I love about this guy is that he drags the video in a very unique way by focusing on little things that sort of allows the other person to go in details and talk about em instead of jumping from one place to other like quick quick quick we gatta get outta hea n get some money by posting this on UA-cam. VERY AMAZING!!! Keep up the great work mate!!
Yea never seen him like this that lingering hug she gave did something to him. I think they crushing on each other
