This little cottage in Lee, England is popular with walkers and surfers taking advantage of all nature has to offer nearby. While the exterior might blend into the natural surroundings, inside the owners chose a bright and bold color palette.
There’s a bathroom in a separate building, and you can cook on the veranda with a provided camp stove and all kinds of cooking utensils. Then it’s time to enjoy a walk or drink some coffee and take in the views from the porch.

Ian started living in his 1978 Hedonist Yatch, “BLOWN AWAY” back in 2000. He spent his free time making the boat livable, completely reconstructing the hull and repainting the lime-green exterior. His background in marine engineering definitely helped!
About 5 years ago he met Natalie, who now lives in the sailboat with him, and the couple enjoy their off-grid sailboat life, staying at anchor and sailing to avoid pricey marina fees. They choose to sleep in the saloon so they can fall asleep to starry-night views. Could you live on the water?

Composer Freddie Hodkin lives in a beautiful tiny house built by North East Log Cabin, called the “Camping Snug Star Pod.” Set up in a “plus sign” shape, each arched wing functions as either the kitchen, living room, bathroom or bedroom. He has his snug pod situated on beautiful land with views of the Cornish valley (UK).
I included some pictures below of the “for sale” units from the builder, and you can enjoy Freddie’s video tour with his own original music at the end. Freddie said he welcomes questions on his YouTube channel! As always, let us know what you think.

We all grow and change, and unsurprisingly, the first tiny house Richard ever built has needed some updates as the years rolled by. He lived in the THOW for about 18 months after building it, and then had it on Airbnb for about 4 years as he traveled cross-country in a micro tiny house!
When he came back to the house, he realized some of his 24-year-old self’s ideas weren’t that great. So now he is ripping out the old kitchen, has replaced his epoxy bathroom floor with “normal” tile, and actually bought a couch. Enjoy the old tour and Richard’s updates in the video below.
Oh, and yes you can still buy plans for the tiny house here!

Le’shaun recorded the hit rap single “Doin’ It” with LL Cool J and got her first taste of tiny living on the tour bus she lived on while traveling the country. After years in a 2,700 square foot house where she lived with her daughter during her daughter’s pregnancy, she was ready for something different when her daughter moved out.
The self-proclaimed “undercover treehugger” DIYed a tiny house from a toy hauler/cargo trailer without sacrificing her style. A mini chandelier, velvet love seat, ghost chairs, and glamorous touches throughout reflect her personality and make her little space a home.

This family had been living in Zanzabar before COVID-19 sent them back to the United States. The family quickly fell into “typical” middle-class American life but were unsatisfied. Eventually, they decided to take a family trip, but when they found their awesome Class A RV, they ended up renovating it and traveling full-time.
Wait until you see how they hid a deep freezer underneath their family table and managed to create four custom bunks for their children, ages 2 to 8 years old. They plan to keep up the lifestyle as long as it works for their kids.

Sarah dreamed of a nomadic lifestyle since she was 14 years old, but it took crashing her beloved Jeep to push her into making it a reality. With the insurance money from the accident, she was able to jumpstart her school bus conversion.
Originally she considered dealing with the lower bus height, but then had the brilliant idea to attach a jon boat to the roof to gain headroom. After generous applications of putty and FlexSeal, her “Adobe Casita” tiny home came together with unique character.
