Leon and Monique (@van.tastictraveling) were living “normal” lives working 9 to 5, when Monique ended up in a horrible car accident. She spent 10 months in recovery, and that changed their perspective on life entirely. At that point, they decided to spend a year travelling around Scotland in a campervan and enjoying every moment.

Two years later they sold their home and downsized even more into a 2009 Sprinter van, which has been beautiful outfitted with seating for four (including seat belts!) and a super neat Murphy bed in the back. When folded up, it gives them space to hang out and exercise, and gives their cat and dog more room to relax.

Enjoy the awesome video tour and interview with Tiny Home Tours below!

Meet Hambone & the Hippie — a #vanlife couple who builds gorgeous vans and later sells them! They don’t do custom orders, but recently sold their “April” conversion which features an amazing off-grid system AND a shower/toilet.

They insulated the van with wool, and there’s a marine fridge in the kitchen area. Under the bed is plenty of garage storage, and everything has been decorated in a gorgeous, modern fashion.

Enjoy the photo and video tour of this great build below, and get ideas for your own van creation!

Have you ever considered staying in a houseboat or maybe even living in one? Well, this floating cottage near Marco Island could be someone’s chance to try it out.

It’s an off-grid getaway houseboat in Southwest Florida called Jumana – the Silver Pearl and it’s available to book on Airbnb via Genevieve. What would be your favorite part about staying in a place like this? For me it’s easy. It would be the nature. Getting to watch the birds, pelicans, dolphins, and of course, the sunrise and sunset.

One of the first steps to living tiny is to downsize one’s belongings. At the end of the day, there simply isn’t enough space to fit 2,000 square feet of stuff into 200 square feet! While decluttering coach Morgan lives in a modest (but not tiny) 1,200 square foot home, her organization advice is relevant to tiny homers as well.

During our interview she mentioned that a home is like a garden — each season it needs care and upkeep — it’s not a “one and done” project. I love that reframing of mind! We constantly need to evaluate what we have, what we need, and what we should pass on in order to live more simply.

Enjoy the pictures below of her mid-century modern home, and then read the Q&A with some advice for decluttering below! Follow her on Instagram here.

This is the Cyberlandr! It’s a truck camper designed for the Tesla Cybertruck.

It’s an incredible concept that’s designed to collapse into the bed of the truck and expands when you want it to. Inside: a bathroom with shower and toilet, kitchenette, multi-functional queen bed, and apparently, even a corner office with a view. I don’t know, it seems unfeasible, but I suppose we will see. What do you think?

This Hobbit Hole in Virginia looks stellar if you want a peaceful getaway. Inside the round green door is a one-bedroom cabin with a queen bed, kitchenette, and a bathroom complete with a rainfall shower.

The owners added various handmade special touches, including the counters and furniture! The family also did the welding, and the wife upkeeps the beautiful nearby garden.

The mood is complete with a picket fence, Adirondack chairs, and a fire pit. You can book your stay on Airbnb.

Here is the Rambler Deluxe by Indigo River Tiny Homes. A client contacted them wanting a Denali tiny house, a la Timbercraft Tiny Homes, but built by someone closer to home. I think Indigo River did a great job fulfilling their client’s dream!

There are two entrances, and the side one leads into the living room that has lovely high ceilings. The kitchen sits in the middle of the home, adjacent to a bathroom with a beautiful tile-and-stone shower stall. Up a few steps (with storage drawers), sits the gooseneck bedroom.

There’s even a neat loft/storage area above the bathroom! No inch is wasted. What do you think?

It has two lofts with storage staircases, two entrances (one with a mudroom), a full kitchen with generous counter space, a soaking tub, a wood-burning stove, and a washer/dryer — all wrapped in colorful board-and-batten siding.
