    No matter what the size of the place is, as long as it is filled with love, understanding, forgiveness and faith in God, it will always be called home. looing forward to see children playing at your sweet home these coming days. May the author of marriage bless your relationship, ministry, family, and home. Guy from the Philippines

    I’m from Europe and when people from the USA say “tiny house” I usually expect houses that are much bigger than what I intend as tiny 😂 I’m glad to see that this house stands to the expectations! It’s even bigger than our apartment so I totally feel you! It feels so cozy and you guys did a neat job with it, it makes the perfect love nest for a young couple 🥰

      You can get anything in Kenya to decorate your house only if you know where to go get them but they are there but I know you are new there you'll get to know the city

    It is all very beautiful & peaceful 😊🤗☺. That right there is something we lack in a lot of big cities in the USA; we lack quality of life. We often do not have time to enjoy connecting with others, sitting on a rooftop and taking in everything & appreciating what we have. A rooftop terrace in NYC usually means a lots of alcohol and noise contamination along with seeing people rushing everywhere. I am glad that living in Kenya is working out for you guys. You have everything you need and more, but above all you have true love and that is priceless. When you are with the person you love, nothing else matters. Another thing that I loved from your story is the fact that your parents, despite being conservative Amish, supported you and were there with you on your wedding. You truly have amazing parents. I also love how you and Koree work as a team in everything. He really seems to be a very supportive husband who loves you dearly. God Bless you all and may He continue to guide you and grant you all your wishes if they are for the greater good of all. With God all things are possible! 😇☺🙏🏼🤍💕 p.s.: I loved all your decorations. You really made your place your own & it looks super cozy ☺.

    Looks very nice 👌 Good idea to put film on the windows. The sheers allow some light come in . But people can't see straight into your room. If you get a tension rod you could hang a shower curtain on it to keep water off the Toilet paper The most important is to fill your home with ❤️ 😁 You could have your own roof top garden 😉 GOD Bless you 🙏🏼

    Traditionally it was advised that ovens and fridges should be separated due to the fridge needing to work extra hard to stay cool which increases electricity bill and reduces the life of the refrigerator. But if your fridge is well insulated that's fine. Just some kitchen work triangle I learn from High School Home Economic class. Just want to share.
