This lightweight camper is the answer to rising fuel costs since with a weight of 1,300 lbs you can tow it with most cars. It’s funky looking yet shaped to where it’s somewhat aerodynamic. Garrett Finney is the [...]

Two Tiny NYC Apartments by Laura LaVoie As someone who lives in a tiny house, I am very familiar with that look of horror and the question of  “how can you live in a space so small?” Sometimes it isn’t worth answering but it depends on who’s asking. I think from now on I’m going [...]
