Magical 3-Bedroom Log Cabin in PA

While this is a vacation property, it’s the kind of place I could easily see a family living in quite happily year-round. At 1250 square feet, it’s by no means “tiny,” but would still be more compact than many of the McMansions people live in today. You walk into an open-concept living room and kitchen,…

From Van Life To Tiny House on 14 Acres in Vermont

Colby and Aria used to be vanlifers, but are now proud owners of more than 14 acres of woodlands in Vermont, as well as their very own DIY tiny home that’s entirely off-grid (they even get water from their stream). Their 360 square foot home is heated by wood they cut themselves, and they have…

His School Bus Conversion Includes a Bar!

Justin grew up road-tripping with his family as a kid, and wanted to keep that tradition alive as a young adult. So he bought a school bus and created a custom party bus, complete with a one-of-a-kind bar so he can mix drinks (when parked, of course — don’t drink and drive!). He doesn’t live…

Tesla-Powered Skoolie with Heated Floors!

Not only does this skoolie feature a layout I’ve never seen before, it includes radiant heating through the floor — even in the shower!

Chasing the “American Dream” required this family of four to spend some $1,200 a month for only 500 square feet — so they ditched the apartment life and renovated a bus instead! While they had to downsize to 250 square feet, they’re now in a much better position and will start travelling again once it’s…

Charlie and Dale work full-time, but when they hit the road to travel Europe this next year, they’ll be able to cut back to freelance work, work less, and climb more!
