It’s not about the tiny house. It’s about living your best life and continuing to grow as a human being. Congratulations on the next wonderful phase of your life. Thanks for taking us along.
You literally built a house, accomplished your goals, got to live a tiny house lifestyle and now have a family. I don't see anything here except a badass lady's success story! Congratulations!!
I'm 62 years old. I've changed my life plans many times over the years. I don't know of anyone who has stuck to one plan all their life. Ignore the trolls. Congrats on your marriage and new baby!!! Tiny homes serve a purpose. You have shown all of us what can be accomplished by living in one. It's fantastic!! Thank you for sharing your story!!!
Absolutely, I'm 46 n currently living vanlife but know i want a tiny home so bad. 😥 But think ill actually buy a condo in baja, for the ease n investment. Cuz frankly the u.s. doesn't embrace the tiny house movement. Sad but true....still love all things tiny!!!
So very true..I'm 60, have lived in a tiny rented flat, owned a penthouse, and renovated a huge Victorian terraced house where I brought up my two kids...now retired, divorced and living alone in a small one bedroomed jewel box of a flat which I love...life goals change and as long as you are happy and safe anywhere can be 'home'. x
Hey, at age 68 I pulled up roots, moved from my 6 acre 100 year old Iowa farmhouse, bought a small vacation home in Florida on a quarter acre. I'm planting a food forest on my empty lot, lush gardens and moss laden oaks whirl a magic spell on me...at 71 now eating figs n mangos n papaya n banana off my trees, my fern blanketed paradise nurtures me into adulthood as I slowly(sorta)embrace old age all by myself...life moves on, take it as it comes, do it all for the right reasons...for your family...haters gonna hate...be you...! Oh and congrats...!!!
How odd that you've received any negative feedback or comments EVER. You seem like a lovely person, who is, like everyone else, living her life... the ups and downs, planned and unexpected. You don't owe anyone an explanation or justification about how your life has unfolded. I've enjoyed every video you've made, and I look forward to continuing to watch your journey... yes, pls share videos of your new home with Nabil - I'd love to watch the progress. And MOST IMPORTANTLY a huge CONGRATULATIONS to you both - I am so happy to hear about your sweet babe due next month - be sure to soak in every moment with her
@@DaveRod76 so did I, but life goes on and sooner than I ever thought I met my soul mate, married now 24 years 2 grown children that are absolute blessings and our love for one another grows deeper the longer we are married. If i had said all those years ago that I never wanted to be hurt again none of the past 25 years would have happened and I think that is far more sad than being hurt in my first relationship.
You didn't change You had a Plan & it came full circle.. You owe nothing to anyone .. Thank you for letting us step into you're world.. Congratulations! life is Good!!.. Keep us posted when you can...
You don't have to apologize for your life. As you said, "everybody's different." That's kind of the point of the tiny house movement. You can individualize what you live in. And congrats on your baby! So exciting for the two of you.
That tiny house is like your first car, it carried you through a stage of your life and life changed, so will your home. I love that you still have it. Hey, some parents hand down first car to their kids... this could be a first home to help Him/Her stay debt fee. Congrats!
You haven’t “sold out”. Life isn’t about finding a lifestyle and sticking to it no matter what. Life is about experimenting, learning and evolving. Your tiny house was the first one I ever saw online and yes, it maks me a little bit sad knowing no one is living in it. But I am happy for you! Only one thing: you aren’t “starting” a family. You already were one (doggo included). I would love to see a house tour once it is remodeled! I love small houses 😍. Love!
I guess the vquestionthat pops into my mind is "were the close quarters possibly a factor in the relationship breakdown"? Every couple has a tiff every now and then, but in a conventional home you can separate yourselves to cool off, regroup and make up where as thats not really possible in a tiny home! For a single person though these tiny homes can be cool.
@@kenthhamner2641 but then again, who cares? People fall in love and break up all the time and for all sorts of reasons. Why even wonder (much) about strangers love life? (message to anyone, and no one in particular)
I’m 46 and just now getting a chance to build a tiny house. I plan to live there when I’m an old lady and I’m very excited about it. My life goal has stayed the same but every 10 years brings change to the path getting there.
Congratulations Jenna and Nabil! Part of the tiny house movement is not letting someone else dictate your goals and how you choose to live. I think some people forget that. Besides 460 square feet is still tiny. You make an excellent point about building your house to suit your lifestyle - and your original tiny wasn't built for the life you live now. I would love to keep seeing how other people have chosen to live tiny, and the changes you're making to your home. Thanks for all the great videos you've posted. I look forward to your future posts.
Congratulations! I don't know why anyone would say you "sold out" everything is a reason, season or a lifetime. You knew going into it it was for a season. Not to mention you also have created a wonderful youtube channel and met a lot of amazing people due to the tiny house. And still getting income from it is nice as well. I would love to see building video, renovations video maybe even a nursery tour.
In a world where so many people are in debt over their heads from student loans and mortgages and credit cards debts it is so refreshing and even inspirational at how you managed your life so well. A tiny house was your answer to the question and it paid off. I am confident that you and your little family will succeed in whatever plans you make. You have an incredible maturity at 26 when you decided to build a tiny home to get your debts paid off. What a sense of responsibility and ingenuity for that age. Now that you have a family started , I can only see amazing things ahead for you. Thank you for sharing your journey. I wish you all all the best with your family life and future goals.
Jenna, you owe no one an explanation on any of your life decisions. It’s your life, do what makes you happy. Congratulations! Hope you introduce us to baby.
Season shifting! You did what you needed to do to accomplish your goals and now your starting a new chapter! Sounds like growth to me! Congratulations!
I can only imagine how those negative comments drag you down, but maybe a different perspective would help your peace of mind - instead of addressing the comments, you could be sharing a life update with all of us who love and care about you and your channel! ♥️ You've helped so many people with your channel, and there's no rules to say you have to live a certain way - that's suppose to be what the whole tiny house movement is about - living however you want to! I agree 400 sqft is a tiny house, I would love to see renovations! Remember you've got 90 : 10 positive fans over negative poopoo heads! Excited for you for this new phase of your life Miss Jenn!
Jenna, I am so delighted for you and congrats to you and Nabil on your wedding and the soon to be arrival of your baby. You don't need to explain or apologise for the decisions that you make that are best for you. The majority of people on here are just grateful that you took us on your journey with your tiny home. The people who matter won't mind and the people who mind, won't matter. You are one of the few tiny house vloggers that have inspired myself and my two growing teens to plan on going tiny (a larger tiny) and I thank you for opening a world I never knew existed. Wishing you all the best for this next fun (tiring) and rewarding adventure. X
I think your update is exactly what tiny houses are for- growth and change. The tiny house movement is all about making and creating a home that fits your needs. Your tiny home on wheels and your tiny home with your growing family are both still tiny! Congratulations to you both!
I can't imagine being negative. Isn't the tiny house movement partially about making choices that work for your individual life. Congratulations on your happy marriage and family. I'm going to now look ahead to see where you are at as I'm watching in the future lol.
The channel is called “Tiny House, Giant Journey”, not “Tiny House for Life”. Part of the journey is moving onto the next great adventure! So excited for you and your cute husband and would LOVE to see more on your remodel 😊👍🏻
Congrats on everything; - selling out 😁 - getting married - getting ready for a baby - being debt free - living your life to the fullest - living your life to the fullest - living your life to the fullest I’m SO happy for you and Thank You!!! From the bottom of my heart for all you’ve done for us when it was not profitable but just a pure urge of creating and sharing 💕 ☀️ 💕 ☀️ 💕
Your personal history is really nobody's business. You have dreams in life and your realized dreams are stepping stones to where you are now. Congrats on your marriage, baby, checking off some goals in life, making memories, and more dreams! I'd love to see updates on your new home! Dreams do come true Jenna, you're living proof! Peace be with you.
I am really happy for you!! Finding someone you love & want to spend your life with is wonderful. Having a baby rocks. You didn't move from a tiny house to a McMansion. Your videos are phenomenal!! Thanks for opening up the world to me!
You look wonderful! Pregnant with first child is so exciting (as is pregnant with second). And I adore Nabil because he clearly has a great sense of humor. Please please post videos of your renovation of your bigger tiny house! A good renovation video, especially one you’re doing yourselves on a old (venerable) cute little house, will be just as much fun as any tiny house video. Also, I think it’s a great idea to renovate it and make it into your family’s home.
I can’t imagine why anyone would say you sold out or have anything negative to say about how you choose to live YOUR life... Congrats on making your dreams come true!
I'm so flipping proud of you Jenna!!! We're all on an evolving path. We just need to ignore those going in the opposite direction. 😘 BTW, I haven't seen you probably since the last Tiny House Jamboree in CO Springs! I'm happy I FINALLY found you here! 😂
Ah a Christmas baby! Your journey, is YOUR journey. That's the best part about life. You live the way that works for you! I think going tiny to live debt free is awesome. Its also awesome when you give yourself room to grow!
It's a girlllllll she said "her room" did I hear it right? Well your channel is amazing. Always happy for you. Much love to you and congratulations on the new chapter of your life 💖💖💖💖
I would love to see anything related to the remodel! Tiny homes don’t just have to be on wheels. Thanks for sharing your journey with us, ignore the haters and complainers ❤️
kinda late to this game, but I'm happy for you both. I, personally, would appreciate updates on your tiny home. As for the change, any well rounded adult knows that a good life is about change. Ultimately, you are your own priority. What makes you happy is what is important. It doesn't make your channel irrelevant.
I would love to see updates on the remodel. Mostly I want to see you happy and saying poo to negative comments. You worked for your dream and you got it. Enjoy the life you two have built. Also, I could have sworn you had told us this before.
That's the problem when people start posting things on the internet, they risk having strangers commenting and asking questions about their personal affairs. The boundaries seem to become blurry for some folks!
You can just say that your starter home was a tiny home. And I think you need to just access all the different stages of life as it constantly changes. So happy for you and your husband.
Congratulations❣ Debt free, marriage and now a baby on the way. Cannot wait to see the house remodel. Love watching you living your best life and inspiring all the people to chase their own tiny home dreams on this channel. Thanks a bunch!😁
Congrats on the baby, so happy for you and your husband. I had one child on my own. He is now 41 and is the best thing to ever happen to me. Being a Mom is the greatest!
Congratulations Jenna and Nabil!! I would definitely love to see the progress on your house and on the wee one too! I don't feel you have 'sold out' or anything of the sort Jenna. You have been very forthright with your plans all along and I love that you are able to follow your dream. Tiny living or small living...still relevant to your channel in my humble opinion and I look forward to whatever you choose to share here. It's fun seeing some of the alternative living that you've shared too.
I applaud your choices. You are a living example on how a person can set their mind to something and accomplish their goals, just like you did. Not only that, you are also building a family, congratulations!
It’s all there in your channel name: “Tiny House Giant Journey” - full steam ahead, no comma necessary, thank you very much! You are still working with and renovating a “tiny” house and (more importantly) living YOUR Giant Journey!! I’ve been following your story and your channel since early days and though it wasn’t necessary or anyone’s business but yours, thank you for filling in the blanks regarding your breakup. With that, we can all close that chapter of your old story and cheer you on in your new one! Of course, since you’re in the “public eye” there will be haters who are (say it with me!) “gonna hate”. May I suggest a composting toilet or an incinerette (sp.?!😱) in which to deposit such unsolicited opinions? I recently turned 60 and have been having some difficulties with life (I know - age aside, who hasn’t in 2020?!) I want you to know I find you and the people whose stories you document uplifting and inspiring. I’m very glad I found your TH-cam channel back in the day. You’ve come a long way to get where you are now. Congratulations on finding a spouse with a sense of HUMOR (so important!) and on your imminent new family. A Christmas baby no less - beautiful! Keep those videos a-coming. The house reno would be seriously interesting (IMHO) but I’ll leave that to your discerning and keen editorial sense - it hasn’t disappointed me yet! Stay happy and healthy, Jenna! ✌️😎
Don’t feel like you ever have to explain yourself. There will always be people who will present challenges. They are there to help us grow. Congratulations on your life.
Congratulations! So happy for you! May you continue to be blessed and have a strong healthy baby! You did not sell out at all. You're growing and living a lovely life. May you always be blessed with peace, joy, love, prosperity and good health.
I think it would be nice to see a “where are they now” video and learn how many of the people on your videos still living in a tiny house and how their life changed since last time we saw them.
Hey Jenna. I've been following you for a few years. I loved your tiny house journey. I have been living in my own tiny house for just over a year, and I got a lot of inspiration from you while I was planning mine. I did it because my life changed. In my case, I'm rolling with the punches. In yours, you are fulfilling your dreams, and I'm so happy for you. I would love to see your progress in your new life, with your new family. Enjoy!
You ROCK!! I love the way you so freely shared so much about yourself, your journey. My first time here. Its raw , its real. I hope this experience has empowered you well beyond Truly giving a "crap" about busybodies or negative energies. Congrats , much love and prosperity for u and ypur family. I love the house too.
So I don't really watch this channel, no special reason other than there are tons of channels around, but clicked out of curiosity when it popped up in my recommended feed and the first thing I can say is that you don't need to explain or defend things the way you do. It's no one's business but your own. Things happen, life change, circumstances change and humans adapt - it's what we do. Anyway, congrats on the baby, and wish you all the best! Hope you document all of the renovations made to the house etc, I love that kind of content personally :)
LOVE this channel. PLEASE don't ever stop... This channel has gotten me through this whole year. So thank you! I would love to see the remodel of your house and I would love to see tiny lining in houseboats or any kind of boats. Congrats to you both and Best wishes!!
Love this so much! My family and I too planned to live in our tiny house for the rest of our life. Hubby retired, we had such fun plans with our adult special needs son, oh the things we planned to do. We had 4 years in our home, some of the best of our life. Sadly hubby is now physically disabled and we had to move into a small home to care for him. Life happens. Enjoy the ride, it can be much shorter than you planned.
Congratulations! I am moving from 2,900 sq ft to 1230 sq feet with two kids. Seeing your shows motivated me to downsize and get out of debt!! Can’t wait!! Your not a sell out. You accomplished your goals and that is awesome!
I'd love to see updates on your new slightly larger tiny house! That's honestly closer to how we're trying to live, finding a small house in/near a city we love. But I also love the tiny house content too, I want it all, lol! Thanks so much for sharing your journey, and congratulations!!!
So happy for you...only seen two of your videos. But I believe your doing great! Congrats on your new marriage and a baby on the way....! Many Blessings and Love and Prayers!
Oh my goodness, Mama!! I'm so happy for you!! Literally, did a little happy squeal when you said, "announcement." I've watched your channel almost from the beginning of your tiny house journey. It's amazing the life you've been able to create for yourself with that tiny house. People's journeys change all the time, and no one should judge you for that. Even if you don't live in your tiny full time anymore, you were able to do so much in it and still use it even now. You're still an advocate, and that's the very opposite of selling out. Looking forward to seeing what you guys do with the new house! Congrats on the baby!! ❤️❤️
Omg I remember when I first watched her video on her tiny house like two years ago and now seeing her married and with a baby! it’s super satisfying I’m so happy for her! I kind of want to rent her tiny house 😆
I started watching your videos about 6 months ago and stumbled into this video just now (it is a cold sunday morning in the Netherlands) and it is a special video because it is about YOU this time! I really don't know if it is any use reacting after 3 years, but I will anyhow. You don't have to explain yourself not living in this tiny house anymore for hundreds of reasons, but one of them is you've contributed so much to the tiny home movement; to me you are the face of it. Nabil looks like a great guy and I hope the two of you are truly happy. Thanks for the inspiring content you've been posting over the years.
People shouldn't judge you, it's your life, also the more I see tiny houses the more I personally would find it getting old quick. Agree about the kids, people need privacy!
Thank you for sharing with us! Honestly I forgot about the ex, and when you mentioned y’all had broken up for some reason I thought you were talking about Nabil but I’m SO HAPPY you’re happy and married and have a sweet little addition to your family!!
Congratulations! This is a good reminder for people who go through a break-up. Something better will come your way. Now she's married to the RIGHT man, pregnant and in a new house.
Would love to see the remodeling of your new house! Things change, people change, priorities change! That's life and you're living yours beautifully ♥️
So very happy for you and your hubby!!! You owe no one an explanation why your life has grown out of the tiny house. Loved all your videos. Wishing your family the best!
Firstly I was thinking "how dare people comment on your private life when this is clearly a blog about living tiny and having a great adventure in life because of it" Secondly, I got really happy and excited for you that you have your wonderful hubby and that together you are expecting (what a wonderful due date by the way!). Thirdly, in answer to your question - what do we want to see? Well, personally I have loved seeing other people's Tinies, including the AirBnB ones, and would love to see more of those. Maybe now as you are becoming a parent yourself you could really hone in on Tinies with kids/teens and how they are adapted or special space saving tricks. So really, those Tinies that are multi-ocupancy, not just singles and couples. To be fair, I love looking at everyone's Tinies! Great job, Jenna. Please keep going!
But maybe we (her fans) should let her have a looong maternity break, right?? Let's say three months unless she's uploading cute clips of her baby!!😆 These high quality videos are soooo time consuming to produce!
Never apologize for the paths your life takes. You are living your best life and a home is not based on how large or small a space it is. It’s based on the needs and life at the moment of those who live there. Blessings to the three of you. 👰 🤵♂️ 👶
Omg your husband is so funny sticking his head out the doggy door 🤣 This is so beautiful that you met someone to spend the rest of your life with ❤ I wish u guys all the happiness & love that u can stuff into this life!!!
Jenna I absolutely love your channel! It doesn’t matter where you live! You are truly a pioneer in the tiny house/ alternative living movement! I bought a shed home last fall and living in it while renovating it! You’re awesome ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your TH-cam channel is called Tiny House Giant 'Journey'.. Life is a journey, it's not stagnant! I find it mind-boggling that people could be so harsh and judgmental about your choices in life. As long as you keep showing us tiny houses, I'm happy. ;-). Congrats to you both on the upcoming new addition to the family.. PeAcE!
That's because ppl are miserable & hate seeing happiness. They're stupid, & think their lives suck, & therefore everyone else's life should also suck. Laugh it up sister! You're doing great and those of us that aren't miserable are sending positive vibes your way! 💛💛💛
I love how honest and realistic you are. Breath of fresh air! From a world of "know it alls but sitting in front of their computers not doing anything" Thank you! Being naturally you inspires others. And congratulations brand new mommy!!
Jenna as someone who knows about changing, I am so proud of you! Your growing up accomplishing your goals and taking on new responsibilities. I'm thankful for you and your channel and what I've learned from you. I was also 34 when I became pregnant with twins. I was married and life was good in a 2200 sq. Ft. House. Now I'm divorced, my twins are older and I'm sleeping on a friend's couch trying to figure out how to start my tiny home journey. I have you to thank for the wonderful information you've provided. I'm sure wherever your journey takes you next, people will follow because we watch not just for the tiny houses but for the person you are. Chin up, head high, smile and continue to be the most beautiful you, you can be!💛🌺💖
Bring on the comments! What do you guys think?
It's awesome
I think you and your husband are adorable and it looks like you traded up. 😂👍 Congratulations!!!!
Congratulations, love the channel.
Congratulations！

It’s not about the tiny house. It’s about living your best life and continuing to grow as a human being. Congratulations on the next wonderful phase of your life. Thanks for taking us along.
I totally agree!

Now why would anyone ask, “why did you break up?” Everyone breaks up. It’s a personal business, and not everyone’s business.
Everyone breaks up? 😢 I got hurt once. I don’t ever want to feel that, of something worse, ever again.
Lots of people are nosey as hell and love gossip. It's as simple as that.
People are nosey.

that could be a bunch of videos, I'd like to see that.
Yup. A standard 2 car garage is around 400 square feet and that's really not very big.
You didn't change
You had a Plan & it came full circle..
You owe nothing to anyone ..

Never explain yourself. You just don't owe anybody an explanation. Any problems someone has with your lifestyle are their problems not yours.
Same thing I was going to say. Completely agree, and congratulations Jenna! 😍😍😍
👍👍👍
Exactly. It's her life.
Amen
Amen....
You don't have to apologize for your life. As you said, "everybody's different." That's kind of the point of the tiny house movement. You can individualize what you live in. And congrats on your baby! So exciting for the two of you.

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BABY AND YOUR MARRIAGE. YOUR HOME IS BEAUTIFUL I'M SO PROUD OF YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND WORKING HARD SUPPORTING ONE ANOTHER. 😊
460 sq ft is still technically “tiny house” living. I’d love to see the remodel & baby! God bless💕
That tiny house is like your first car, it carried you through a stage of your life and life changed, so will your home. I love that you still have it. Hey, some parents hand down first car to their kids... this could be a first home to help Him/Her stay debt fee. Congrats!
This is what the tiny house movement is all about imho - making your dreams come true. Congratulations on your pregnancy.
You are NOT a sell out. You’re doing what works for you, your husband and family- that’s what is important. Congratulations 🎈🎊🎉

The tiny house movement is about being able to evolve with the world around you. You're evolving girl 💕
The worst thing about social media....having to clarify every thing in your life.😫
That's what happens when you share with the world.

Agree!
Only if you choose to.
I’m 46 and just now getting a chance to build a tiny house. I plan to live there when I’m an old lady and I’m very excited about it. My life goal has stayed the same but every 10 years brings change to the path getting there.
Congratulations Jenna and Nabil! Part of the tiny house movement is not letting someone else dictate your goals and how you choose to live. I think some people forget that. Besides 460 square feet is still tiny. You make an excellent point about building your house to suit your lifestyle - and your original tiny wasn't built for the life you live now.

Congrats, on your marriage and baby! You've accomplished a lot. I can't imagine that anyone would have a negative comment.
I agree! Jealousy brings out the worse in some people.
well.. this IS the internet 🤷🏻♀️
people be ugly for no reason
Congratulations 💕 so happy for you and your new tiny house addition‼️
Congratulations! I don't know why anyone would say you "sold out" everything is a reason, season or a lifetime. You knew going into it it was for a season. Not to mention you also have created a wonderful youtube channel and met a lot of amazing people due to the tiny house. And still getting income from it is nice as well. I would love to see building video, renovations video maybe even a nursery tour.
That really would be great to see! I hope she continues sharing her journey.
In a world where so many people are in debt over their heads from student loans and mortgages and credit cards debts it is so refreshing and even inspirational at how you managed your life so well. A tiny house was your answer to the question and it paid off. I am confident that you and your little family will succeed in whatever plans you make. You have an incredible maturity at 26 when you decided to build a tiny home to get your debts paid off. What a sense of responsibility and ingenuity for that age. Now that you have a family started , I can only see amazing things ahead for you. Thank you for sharing your journey. I wish you all all the best with your family life and future goals.
Jenna, you owe no one an explanation on any of your life decisions. It’s your life, do what makes you happy. Congratulations! Hope you introduce us to baby.
Season shifting! You did what you needed to do to accomplish your goals and now your starting a new chapter! Sounds like growth to me! Congratulations!
I can only imagine how those negative comments drag you down, but maybe a different perspective would help your peace of mind - instead of addressing the comments, you could be sharing a life update with all of us who love and care about you and your channel! ♥️
You've helped so many people with your channel, and there's no rules to say you have to live a certain way - that's suppose to be what the whole tiny house movement is about - living however you want to! I agree 400 sqft is a tiny house, I would love to see renovations!
Remember you've got 90 : 10 positive fans over negative poopoo heads! Excited for you for this new phase of your life Miss Jenn!
Smart moves. Love that your turned you tiny house into a stream of income. Continue to rock your life your way!!!
Jenna, I am so delighted for you and congrats to you and Nabil on your wedding and the soon to be arrival of your baby. You don't need to explain or apologise for the decisions that you make that are best for you. The majority of people on here are just grateful that you took us on your journey with your tiny home. The people who matter won't mind and the people who mind, won't matter. You are one of the few tiny house vloggers that have inspired myself and my two growing teens to plan on going tiny (a larger tiny) and I thank you for opening a world I never knew existed. Wishing you all the best for this next fun (tiring) and rewarding adventure. X
I think your update is exactly what tiny houses are for- growth and change. The tiny house movement is all about making and creating a home that fits your needs. Your tiny home on wheels and your tiny home with your growing family are both still tiny! Congratulations to you both!
I would love to see the updates on your “new” home😀
I can't imagine being negative. Isn't the tiny house movement partially about making choices that work for your individual life. Congratulations on your happy marriage and family. I'm going to now look ahead to see where you are at as I'm watching in the future lol.
Hello dear, how are you doing?
The channel is called “Tiny House, Giant Journey”, not “Tiny House for Life”. Part of the journey is moving onto the next great adventure! So excited for you and your cute husband and would LOVE to see more on your remodel 😊👍🏻
Congrats on everything;
- selling out 😁
- getting married
- getting ready for a baby
- being debt free
- living your life to the fullest
- living your life to the fullest
- living your life to the fullest
I’m SO happy for you and Thank You!!! From the bottom of my heart for all you’ve done for us when it was not profitable but just a pure urge of creating and sharing

Your personal history is really nobody's business. You have dreams in life and your realized dreams are stepping stones to where you are now. Congrats on your marriage, baby, checking off some goals in life, making memories, and more dreams! I'd love to see updates on your new home! Dreams do come true Jenna, you're living proof! Peace be with you.
I am really happy for you!! Finding someone you love & want to spend your life with is wonderful. Having a baby rocks. You didn't move from a tiny house to a McMansion. Your videos are phenomenal!! Thanks for opening up the world to me!
Hello Darlene, how are you doing?
You look wonderful! Pregnant with first child is so exciting (as is pregnant with second). And I adore Nabil because he clearly has a great sense of humor.
Please please post videos of your renovation of your bigger tiny house! A good renovation video, especially one you’re doing yourselves on a old (venerable) cute little house, will be just as much fun as any tiny house video. Also, I think it’s a great idea to renovate it and make it into your family’s home.
Congratulations and “sold out”? I guess people miss the point, that is to be happy with your life.
I can’t imagine why anyone would say you sold out or have anything negative to say about how you choose to live YOUR life... Congrats on making your dreams come true!
I'm so flipping proud of you Jenna!!! We're all on an evolving path. We just need to ignore those going in the opposite direction. 😘 BTW, I haven't seen you probably since the last Tiny House Jamboree in CO Springs! I'm happy I FINALLY found you here! 😂
People shouldn’t make negative comments about how other people decide to live their lives.. Do you!
I agree with the sentiment of your statement, but some people are incredibly wasteful. She is not one of those people though.
IMO your current home is still TINY. Nothing wrong with that. Congrats on the one in the oven!
Wow 🤩
Spoiler alert 🚨 lol
Ah a Christmas baby! Your journey, is YOUR journey. That's the best part about life. You live the way that works for you! I think going tiny to live debt free is awesome. Its also awesome when you give yourself room to grow!
It's a girlllllll she said "her room" did I hear it right? Well your channel is amazing. Always happy for you. Much love to you and congratulations on the new chapter of your life 💖💖💖💖
Read closed captioning...
@@LuckyTown77 👍
Yes it is... There is another Video go to video baby is there 😌
@@rabeyabosri7021 yes I watched it she is so adorable
It's really nobody's business why you guys broke up or what happened with the house and the money. People really need a life.
100% facts...lol
So true!
Absolutely RIGHT!
So true
💯 true!
I would like to see the Progress on your home.
I would love to see anything related to the remodel! Tiny homes don’t just have to be on wheels. Thanks for sharing your journey with us, ignore the haters and complainers ❤️
kinda late to this game, but I'm happy for you both. I, personally, would appreciate updates on your tiny home. As for the change, any well rounded adult knows that a good life is about change. Ultimately, you are your own priority. What makes you happy is what is important. It doesn't make your channel irrelevant.
Would love to see updates on your new home. Just remember, you do not owe anyone an explanation on what you do.
I would love to see updates on the remodel. Mostly I want to see you happy and saying poo to negative comments. You worked for your dream and you got it. Enjoy the life you two have built.
Also, I could have sworn you had told us this before.
You don't need to explain yourself to total strangers on TH-cam! Live your life! I'm happy for you!!
That's the problem when people start posting things on the internet, they risk having strangers commenting and asking questions about their personal affairs. The boundaries seem to become blurry for some folks!
🎶🙏💙
You can just say that your starter home was a tiny home. And I think you need to just access all the different stages of life as it constantly changes. So happy for you and your husband.
Congratulations❣ Debt free, marriage and now a baby on the way. Cannot wait to see the house remodel. Love watching you living your best life and inspiring all the people to chase their own tiny home dreams on this channel. Thanks a bunch!😁
Congrats on the baby, so happy for you and your husband. I had one child on my own. He is now 41 and is the best thing to ever happen to me. Being a Mom is the greatest!
Congratulations Jenna and Nabil!! I would definitely love to see the progress on your house and on the wee one too! I don't feel you have 'sold out' or anything of the sort Jenna. You have been very forthright with your plans all along and I love that you are able to follow your dream. Tiny living or small living...still relevant to your channel in my humble opinion and I look forward to whatever you choose to share here. It's fun seeing some of the alternative living that you've shared too.
Congratulations on the baby, the husband and the massive 460 square foot mansion! :-)
I applaud your choices. You are a living example on how a person can set their mind to something and accomplish their goals, just like you did. Not only that, you are also building a family, congratulations!
It’s all there in your channel name: “Tiny House Giant Journey” - full steam ahead, no comma necessary, thank you very much! You are still working with and renovating a “tiny” house and (more importantly) living YOUR Giant Journey!! I’ve been following your story and your channel since early days and though it wasn’t necessary or anyone’s business but yours, thank you for filling in the blanks regarding your breakup. With that, we can all close that chapter of your old story and cheer you on in your new one! Of course, since you’re in the “public eye” there will be haters who are (say it with me!) “gonna hate”. May I suggest a composting toilet or an incinerette (sp.?!😱) in which to deposit such unsolicited opinions?
I recently turned 60 and have been having some difficulties with life (I know - age aside, who hasn’t in 2020?!) I want you to know I find you and the people whose stories you document uplifting and inspiring. I’m very glad I found your TH-cam channel back in the day. You’ve come a long way to get where you are now. Congratulations on finding a spouse with a sense of HUMOR (so important!) and on your imminent new family. A Christmas baby no less - beautiful! Keep those videos a-coming. The house reno would be seriously interesting (IMHO) but I’ll leave that to your discerning and keen editorial sense - it hasn’t disappointed me yet! Stay happy and healthy, Jenna! ✌️😎
Don’t feel like you ever have to explain yourself. There will always be people who will present challenges. They are there to help us grow. Congratulations on your life.
Congratulations! So happy for you! May you continue to be blessed and have a strong healthy baby! You did not sell out at all. You're growing and living a lovely life. May you always be blessed with peace, joy, love, prosperity and good health.
I totally want to see the Seattle place and to meet Nabil more.
I think it would be nice to see a “where are they now” video and learn how many of the people on your videos still living in a tiny house and how their life changed since last time we saw them.
Yes even if it was through zoom or something..don't necessarily have to go visit them all over the country
I agree ...
Yes!!!
I would love to watch a “where are they now” video! Like what they learned, if they stayed tiny, and where they see themselves in 5-10 years!
Agree! And what they would change - hindsight is 20/20!
I would totally watch this!
Hey Jenna. I've been following you for a few years. I loved your tiny house journey. I have been living in my own tiny house for just over a year, and I got a lot of inspiration from you while I was planning mine. I did it because my life changed. In my case, I'm rolling with the punches. In yours, you are fulfilling your dreams, and I'm so happy for you. I would love to see your progress in your new life, with your new family. Enjoy!
You ROCK!! I love the way you so freely shared so much about yourself, your journey. My first time here. Its raw , its real. I hope this experience has empowered you well beyond Truly giving a "crap" about busybodies or negative energies. Congrats , much love and prosperity for u and ypur family. I love the house too.
This made me cry 😭 congratulations
Love you ari
Ari, are you thinking of living tiny?! It would be wild to see a famous person living in a tiny house💖
So her hubby is a knock out huh?😉😁.
Congratulations, I've watched your journey and I am very 😊 happy for the both or all three of y'all .
And I would love to see the finished update of your new home 🏡
So I don't really watch this channel, no special reason other than there are tons of channels around, but clicked out of curiosity when it popped up in my recommended feed and the first thing I can say is that you don't need to explain or defend things the way you do. It's no one's business but your own. Things happen, life change, circumstances change and humans adapt - it's what we do. Anyway, congrats on the baby, and wish you all the best! Hope you document all of the renovations made to the house etc, I love that kind of content personally :)
LOVE this channel. PLEASE don't ever stop... This channel has gotten me through this whole year. So thank you! I would love to see the remodel of your house and I would love to see tiny lining in houseboats or any kind of boats. Congrats to you both and Best wishes!!
Love this so much! My family and I too planned to live in our tiny house for the rest of our life. Hubby retired, we had such fun plans with our adult special needs son, oh the things we planned to do. We had 4 years in our home, some of the best of our life. Sadly hubby is now physically disabled and we had to move into a small home to care for him. Life happens. Enjoy the ride, it can be much shorter than you planned.
Congratulations! I am moving from 2,900 sq ft to 1230 sq feet with two kids. Seeing your shows motivated me to downsize and get out of debt!! Can’t wait!! Your not a sell out. You accomplished your goals and that is awesome!
I'd love to see updates on your new slightly larger tiny house! That's honestly closer to how we're trying to live, finding a small house in/near a city we love. But I also love the tiny house content too, I want it all, lol! Thanks so much for sharing your journey, and congratulations!!!
We better get a house tour once this thing is done being remodeled
Yes please 😊
And a before and after transformation. And a series type vlog of the renovation process.
I want it all... 😃😅
have some manners
@@iikhalaii8784 Tour comment made mae LOL! 😄😄😄
So happy for you...only seen two of your videos. But I believe your doing great! Congrats on your new marriage and a baby on the way....! Many Blessings and Love and Prayers!
Oh my goodness, Mama!! I'm so happy for you!! Literally, did a little happy squeal when you said, "announcement." I've watched your channel almost from the beginning of your tiny house journey. It's amazing the life you've been able to create for yourself with that tiny house. People's journeys change all the time, and no one should judge you for that. Even if you don't live in your tiny full time anymore, you were able to do so much in it and still use it even now. You're still an advocate, and that's the very opposite of selling out. Looking forward to seeing what you guys do with the new house! Congrats on the baby!! ❤️❤️
I’d love to see updates on your 400 square-foot renovations.
Same
Me too!!
Me too!! And baby updates!!!!
Omg I remember when I first watched her video on her tiny house like two years ago and now seeing her married and with a baby! it’s super satisfying I’m so happy for her! I kind of want to rent her tiny house 😆
I started watching your videos about 6 months ago and stumbled into this video just now (it is a cold sunday morning in the Netherlands) and it is a special video because it is about YOU this time! I really don't know if it is any use reacting after 3 years, but I will anyhow. You don't have to explain yourself not living in this tiny house anymore for hundreds of reasons, but one of them is you've contributed so much to the tiny home movement; to me you are the face of it. Nabil looks like a great guy and I hope the two of you are truly happy. Thanks for the inspiring content you've been posting over the years.
People shouldn't judge you, it's your life, also the more I see tiny houses the more I personally would find it getting old quick. Agree about the kids, people need privacy!
I think you are living a pretty adventurous, wonder-filled life. Best wishes on a happy, healthy baby, and can’t wait to see the home makeover!
Congratulations on the baby and achieving your goals! Well done!
Thank you for sharing with us! Honestly I forgot about the ex, and when you mentioned y’all had broken up for some reason I thought you were talking about Nabil but I’m SO HAPPY you’re happy and married and have a sweet little addition to your family!!
Congratulations! This is a good reminder for people who go through a break-up. Something better will come your way. Now she's married to the RIGHT man, pregnant and in a new house.
Would love to see the remodeling of your new house! Things change, people change, priorities change! That's life and you're living yours beautifully ♥️
Nicetomeetyou.Pleasevisitthesiteforabetterexperience
So very happy for you and your hubby!!! You owe no one an explanation why your life has grown out of the tiny house. Loved all your videos. Wishing your family the best!
Definitely show us the remodel of yours and you husband's house.
Firstly I was thinking "how dare people comment on your private life when this is clearly a blog about living tiny and having a great adventure in life because of it"
Secondly, I got really happy and excited for you that you have your wonderful hubby and that together you are expecting (what a wonderful due date by the way!).
Thirdly, in answer to your question - what do we want to see? Well, personally I have loved seeing other people's Tinies, including the AirBnB ones, and would love to see more of those. Maybe now as you are becoming a parent yourself you could really hone in on Tinies with kids/teens and how they are adapted or special space saving tricks. So really, those Tinies that are multi-ocupancy, not just singles and couples.
To be fair, I love looking at everyone's Tinies! Great job, Jenna. Please keep going!
But maybe we (her fans) should let her have a looong maternity break, right??
Let's say three months unless she's uploading cute clips of her baby!!😆
These high quality videos are soooo time consuming to produce!
Never apologize for the paths your life takes. You are living your best life and a home is not based on how large or small a space it is. It’s based on the needs and life at the moment of those who live there. Blessings to the three of you. 👰 🤵♂️ 👶
Beautiful
Congratulations!!! Thats amazing! The baby, getting married, being debt free, it's nice to see people reaching their goals 😁
What do I want to see next? A happy and healthy baby.
Omg your husband is so funny sticking his head out the doggy door 🤣 This is so beautiful that you met someone to spend the rest of your life with ❤ I wish u guys all the happiness & love that u can stuff into this life!!!
are you joking? she will find anohter dude with even bigger hause:) when the right time comes whe will canabalise him
The snippets we saw of remodeling the new house looked really interesting, I’d love to see more of that. :)
Me too! I would love a cottage renovation series
Jenna I absolutely love your channel! It doesn’t matter where you live! You are truly a pioneer in the tiny house/ alternative living movement! I bought a shed home last fall and living in it while renovating it! You’re awesome ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree with everyone who says you're going to be a great mother. Congratulations!!!!
Your TH-cam channel is called Tiny House Giant 'Journey'.. Life is a journey, it's not stagnant! I find it mind-boggling that people could be so harsh and judgmental about your choices in life. As long as you keep showing us tiny houses, I'm happy. ;-). Congrats to you both on the upcoming new addition to the family.. PeAcE!
That's because ppl are miserable & hate seeing happiness. They're stupid, & think their lives suck, & therefore everyone else's life should also suck.
Laugh it up sister! You're doing great and those of us that aren't miserable are sending positive vibes your way! 💛💛💛
I love how honest and realistic you are. Breath of fresh air! From a world of "know it alls but sitting in front of their computers not doing anything" Thank you! Being naturally you inspires others. And congratulations brand new mommy!!
Jenna as someone who knows about changing, I am so proud of you! Your growing up accomplishing your goals and taking on new responsibilities. I'm thankful for you and your channel and what I've learned from you. I was also 34 when I became pregnant with twins. I was married and life was good in a 2200 sq. Ft. House. Now I'm divorced, my twins are older and I'm sleeping on a friend's couch trying to figure out how to start my tiny home journey. I have you to thank for the wonderful information you've provided. I'm sure wherever your journey takes you next, people will follow because we watch not just for the tiny houses but for the person you are. Chin up, head high, smile and continue to be the most beautiful you, you can be!💛🌺💖
