Everything about this little cottage in the New Hampshire woods calls out, “cute!” From the tiny covered front porch to the perfect landscaping to the white rocking chairs — it’s a quaint getaway that’s perfect for a couple’s retreat or even a solo trip.

That said, besides the first-floor queen bed, there is a loft bedroom for kids. There’s also a normal, residential bathroom, which is great to see in a smaller vacation property. What do you think of this gem?

Melanie is a National Spokesperson for the Tiny House Alliance USA, and the author of “Trailblazing Tiny: A Guide to Breaking Free.” She and her husband live — legally — in a tiny house on wheels that sits on an acre homestead.

They built their 144 sq. ft. tiny house in just seven days with the help of three other people at an Incredible Tiny House workshop back in 2018. Now they are enjoying a peaceful life outside the rat race — raising chickens, growing veggies, and spending less than $300/month on a land mortgage and utilities! We got to interview Melanie about her tiny life below, so be sure to read that after the photo tour.

Olly and Harriet are a lovely German couple who had always loved traveling during their vacations from work and wanted to use their retirement to keep seeing the world. So they purchased an amazing Mitsubishi Fuso and had it converted into an overlander dream house on wheels!

The professionals who outfitted the interior did an incredible job. They have everything you could want, including a spacious bathroom area with both a window and fan for ventilation. There’s also a fixed bed, convertible dinette, 3-burner cooktop, and hanging clothing storage. Enjoy the tour!

Meet Betty, Jens, Coco (their dog), and their beautiful police-vehicle-turned-tiny-home! Betty & Jens have been using their VW T4 conversion as a vacation home on wheels for the past three years. Because this is a smaller van, it’s so impressive how functional they were able to make it!

We had the chance to interview Betty & Jans about their part-time van life and what inspired them to buy the van. Check out the pictures below and be sure to read the Q&A at the end of the post.

Linda and Bill got to the point where their children and even their grandkids were growing up and had busy lives of their own, so they wanted to get out and explore the world at last! They liquidated their assets and converted the van, which includes a convertible bed, bathroom with a shower and toilet, and two swivel seats.

On their first adventure, they went all around Central America and were just about to come home via Costa Rica when their van was mistakenly taken by the government there due to “incomplete papers.” It took a year and a half due to the 2020 restrictions, but they eventually got the van back and had it shipped to Florida. They’re happy to be on the road again, exploring the country!

This tiny home was built as a family project by a father and his three sons. The floor plan and design were created by mom. They call it the “Nordic” and have named their company Craftsman Tiny Homes.

I’m proud of my 3 sons: 20, 22, & 23 years old who have been in the building industry since they were each 3 years old. They were home schooled and brought out to every job site we engaged in.

The two-loft tiny home is for sale for $95,000 in Newberry, Florida.

Below, Cyrus takes us on a tour of his self-built 4×4 Fuso FG which he lives in full-time. But this is far from his first van! Cyrus says he has lived in every kind of VW bus except the Syncro and has been dreaming of this box truck rig for more than a decade.

He works on the road helping others fix up their vans and buses out of the awesome workshop he has tucked under one of the beds inside his truck. His bus has big windows, a penthouse tent, an awesome solar system, and lots of space for entertaining. Enjoy seeing all the details below!

When Mike’s work went remote, he found himself isolated and struggling with his mental health. Since he didn’t need his city apartment, he decided traveling was a better option. At first, he just lived in his vehicle, but then he upgraded to a bus conversion. Eventually, he wanted to use all he learned from build #1 to create the “perfect” second build.

And this bus build is pretty flawless! He has a cozy back bedroom that’s his safe place, a great workstation with a monitor near his dinette, and a spacious kitchen with an overhead skylight. He built the bus with his friend Steve and the two did a great job!

This couple took a van vacation around Iceland and Lauren fell in love with the nomadic lifestyle. She finally pestered Jon enough that they purchased a small Class C campervan and started living in it full-time. Eventually, they wanted a bit more space, though, so they upgraded to a 40-foot Heartland Elkridge Fifth Wheel.

This RV has a central living area with a large kitchen and island across from the couch and dinette space. There’s a bunk room in the back for guests, and then they have a luxurious primary bedroom in the front of the rig. Could you enjoy life in a fifth-wheel?
