A little while back I told you about Brett‘s amazing villa style off grid tiny house on wheels that he built in New Zealand.
At that time, it was parked at his parents house but that’s not where he planned on living in it.
By the way, you can see that post here in case you already haven’t which showcases and gives you a tour of Brett’s DIY tiny home on a trailer that he built himself after moving back to his home country.

After Lots of Building Brett Can Finally Relax and Enjoy the Fruits of His Labor
After many, many seemingly never ending weeks of 10-12 hour days of working on and building his tiny house Brett is finally done and in a place where he can relax.
AND He’s Just a 5 Minute Walk to the Beach!
And best of all he’s only a casual 5 minute walk to the beautiful sandy beaches of New Zealand. I couldn’t think of a better spot for a tiny house.
How did he find the parking spot for his tiny home?
Great question. If you watch the video you’ll learn that he printed out a photo of what his house would look like when it’s finished and began posting it up everywhere and telling everyone he knew about what he was looking to do (find a place to park and live in his tiny house).
After a while he was led to a woman, then a man, who said, “yeah, I don’t see a problem with that.”
