When she watched a documentary on minimalism, Katie was living in New York City and started questioning everything — why was she running the rat race? Was this the right choice? That led her to quit her job and travel the world, eventually to Drew. He was also into travel and slow living, and they ended up in Sri Lanka, living in small rooms and rarely buying anything.
But when 2020 forced them back to the U.S., they realized how hard it was to continue simple living in our wildly consumerist culture! But a cabin in the remote Vermont woods living off the land? That was about as close as they could get! You’ll love the tour of this small cabin and how they make it work for their personalities and life goals.

This is a beautiful, brand-new tiny house from LiveTinyNC with a unique layout that keeps the bathroom and kitchen on opposite sides of the house, which some people prefer for sanitary reasons. The kitchen has a beautiful wooden accent wall, oven, induction cooktop, and a drink fridge. Because the kitchen area is elevated, there are pull-out storage drawers underneath.
The main area of the home is the living room, and a glass garage door opens up to allow for an indoor-outdoor feel in the warmer months. The bedroom is up in the loft, which you can access via a neat pipe-and-wood ladder. You can purchase this home for $54,000 in Wake Forest, North Carolina.

Bob is an incredible sculptor with an artist’s eye for turning trash into treasure, and that’s what happened when he came across a £1 grain silo for sale on eBay one afternoon. Since he works with scrap metal already, an entire silo’s worth of it seemed like a gold mine. What he didn’t expect at the time was that he’d turn it into a fully functional tiny house and live in it with Carol Ann for 5 and a half years!
What’s remarkable about the silo is not just that it’s a DIY home, but that most of the interior — including the furniture — was also crafted out of reclaimed materials. The couch is welded from chains and the back seat of a VW beetle! A washing machine door window is the porthole in the bathroom. Old piping became the ladder to the bedroom loft. This tour is just so fascinating, so don’t miss out on the video below.

Samantha had been searching for the perfect van for nearly a year when she decided to pivot and start looking at RVs. Believe it or not, her neighbor was selling his amazing ’95 Lazy Daze, and immediately upon entering, she knew she wanted it! It took her a couple of years before she hit the road full-time, and now she’s been traveling in it for a couple of months and has no intentions of going back to normal life.
She’s kept the rig largely original, since it’s a well-saught-after RV and she wants to preserve its vintage charm. While there’s a bed over the cab, Samantha created a twin bed in the dinette area so she can keep it in both “dining” and “sleeping” mode simultaneously. She uses the cab bed for additional storage. Check it out below!
