I’d like to introduce you to Heather and Dana of HD Adventuring. They converted a travel trailer into a tiny home. Here is their story.
HD Adventuring is the story of two New Englanders who made the trek out to the Golden Coast. We met in college, and a few months after graduation, we decided California was calling our names.
To get here, we packed all of our things into a single station wagon and got rid of the rest. We spent a month road tripping all over the country.
After that month of living with only a couple of bags full of stuff, we realized that all we needed fit into that small car.
We decided that we wanted to live tiny, so we purchased a camper, and are converting it into a tiny house.
Please enjoy, learn more and re-share below. Thank you!

This is a 24 sq. ft. micro day camper guest post by Ray Young. – share yours!
This is my 24 square foot micro day camper. I built it mainly as a kayak support vehicle.
It also serves to transport band equipment as needed. It is just 1/2 inch plywood with my first attempt at a fiberglass coating.
It even contains a small camping toilet. I pull it with my Toyota Yaris.
I attempted to sleep in it once, in the back yard, but it was a bit cramped, especially with my full grown Airedale dog that insisted on sharing the experience.
Please enjoy, learn more and re-share below. Thank you!

This is a 400 sq. ft. two car garage that was designed to be converted into a backyard tiny cottage by designer Beth Dana.
Inside you’ll notice you have everything you need from a kitchenette to a sleeping loft and bathroom. This would make a great tiny cottage to live simply in full time but you can also use it as a guest house, mother-in-law suite, tiny house vacation rental or even a backyard office.
I love the barn doors that are in place of the garage doors which open up to the outside. Please enjoy, learn more and re-share below. Thank you!

Do you think creating a tiny home on wheels should be affordable and accomplishable for the average person, and even the average high school student? That’s what the creators of The Collaborative Tiny House Project believe, and they’ve put together a Kickstarter campaign to make it happen.
Jesse Anselm, one of the Collaborative members, was a student at Riverside High School in Chattaroy, Washington who took part in an integrated curriculum that taught students to build a tiny house during the school year, and then sell it at cost to pay for materials for the following year’s class to build a new house. The course taught Riverside Students teamwork and skills in the trades, in addition to earning them academic credit in math, science and English. Architect Saul Hansen volunteered with the class, helped brainstorm the Collaborative with Anselm, and together they brought on additional team members with specialties in the construction trades, and with video and photography.
