Johnny recently upgraded to a detachable truck camping bed to enhance his adventure sports travels. A couple of years prior, he hopped on the nomadic life train by building out a shuttle bus conversion to pursue adventure sports. And while that setup worked, he decided the bus-plus-car was too long, and he wanted something he could get around with more easily.
That led him to a truckbed camper that he could remove from his flatbed truck when he wanted to get around! This model comes with a bump out that gives his dogs more space to move around the home. So far, he’s loving the upgrade!

In 2020, Anton built out a van conversion, mainly because some of his best friends were jumping into van life, and “you are who your friends are.” Three years ago, he couldn’t even hang a picture, but you’d never know based on the incredible job he did with his custom van conversion.
He chose bamboo for the interior, and while the wood alone cost nearly $6K, it leaves the van with such a professional finish! Anton is a music teacher and now builds luxury vans on the side. Enjoy his incredible van tour below!

Maybe you disagree, but I don’t think I’ll ever tire of looking at Hobbit Holes! Each has unique features, but all call back to the source material with round doors, wooden accents, and a warm and cozy vibe.
This one in Tennessee is no exception. The 360-square-foot space is a great spot to unwind and unplug. There’s no TV or internet access, but “The Hobbit” and “Lord of the Rings” trilogy are available indoors. A queen bed, kitchen, and bathroom with a stone shower stall provide all you need for a weekend getaway. What do you think?

While we love showing off budget builds and how creative people can be with just a little bit of money and a lot of heart, sometimes it’s fun to see what tiny can look like when you aren’t worried about the bank account.

Scott has been surfing on this famous California beach for 50 years and has plenty of experience with boats and RVs, so when the rules about the size of vehicles allowed on the beach changed, he decided to downsize. He wasn’t planning on building something himself, but with the shutdowns of 2020, he decided to take on the project.
And wow! He did a great job. His stealth box truck tiny house has a full-sized bed, an L-shaped couch on an electric lift that houses his electrical system, a separate bathroom with a boat toilet and shower stall, and excellent under-floor storage so he doesn’t have to clutter the space with overhead cabinets. Enjoy!

Joey’s story isn’t one you’d expect — he nailed the “dream job” of working in mechanical and biomedical engineering for the FBI in Washington, D.C. — and then realized it wasn’t for him! He got a different job working as a software engineer that ended up going remote in 2020 — and before he knew it, Joey was buying and converting a van.
He’s lived in the van you’ll see below for three years on and off. In the “off” time, he’s been backpacking around the world, living even more simply than he does in his rig. He designed it to stand up to all kinds of weather, and just wait until you see the neat way he included a shower, closet, and pantry into his home on wheels.

While we’ve seen many Hobbiton-inspired tiny houses before, this is a “real” one, recently entirely on the same farm as the Hobbiton movie set for the “The Lord of the Rings” and “Hobbit” trilogies. The original set designers helped create the home to ensure it was as true to Peter Jackson’s interpretation of the books as possible.
And wow! The home feels genuine, cozy, and almost like coming “home.” Designed to be the abode of the Proudfoot family, which has three small children, there’s a child’s room with bunk beds and toys and even a fort built in the corner of the living room. And the kitchen! It looks ready to make the first and second breakfast and then hop onto elevenses. Enjoy the tour!
