Calvin and Katsi purchased this tiny home to live in while Calvin was travel nursing. They bought the THOW from another owner, and painted the all-wood interior a bright white. It really opened up the space! Plans changed, so the couple is now selling the renovated tiny home for $60,000 (they are in Tallahassee, Florida). [...]
Couple Tiny House Living
They Built a Budget Bus Tiny Home After Van Life
Sydney and Albert jumped into vanlife two years ago, living in a Sprinter without the extra headroom, almost always cramped in the same space during the winter in Utah/Colorado. While they loved living nomadically, they also needed some more space — so they sold the van and purchased a Blue Bird bus. Their budget was [...]
Artist Couple Traveling The Country in DIY Skoolie
Cruz and Mariah first went tiny back when Cruz was commuting long distances for his construction work.

Founders of Skoolie Swarm and their Big Blue Hauler
Travis and Michelle first hit the road in their original converted school bus back in 2016 when they were going to visit their daughter.

They quickly had to learn to live together in a tiny space, and made it through the experience closer and more determined to continue their tiny life. When presented with the opportunity, they joined a tiny house community [...]
