    Single mom, Holly sold her 2800 sqft house in pursuit of simple tiny home life. With her brother, she built a tiny house for her daughter, Tilly--a dorm room alternative. And it's lovely & super practical! The standing height loft bedroom is incredible. 👉🏡 *Watch a tour of a Retiree's container home on wheels offers healing & affordable living:* th-cam.com/video/EPw0goNVqW0/w-d-xo.html

      You should do an episode where you switch houses with another couple for a week...where the couple lives in a huge mansion so they'll live in your tiny home for a week and you'll live in their mansion for a week.

    I live in Castle Rock Co. My youngest daughter and her family lived in Durango for 4 years before coming back down. This is a lovely mother who seems to want to help her daughter but expects her daughter to pay her back when she finds her job. So she’s not spoiling her daughter and giving her things on a SilverPlatter but helping her get a start and I think that shows a lot of love and teaching her daughter responsibility. They have created a lovely home. One of the prettiest I have seen. I am so much like her daughter I would expect to be able to walk in the loft with a full-size bathtub. LOL!

    Right at the beginning Holly hit it on the nail - I mean we only use three or so rooms, and often even a smaller space inside. I always loved Frank Lloyd Wright's idea of windows letting in light and the outside becomes an extension of your interior space. When you for example have a tiny house you can multiply that space by many times by having large windows and skylights. I love what Holly did for her daughter with the assist of her brother. A big wow there and a tear too! Yes, the more I watch the THE stories the more we find that the tiny house movement is full of lovely people stories. By the way that tapestry is off the charts beautiful! Good design all over.

    As for the AC open a window in the loft with a small fan pointing out to draw the cool air across, people forget without an out the ac cannot force more air into the small space. It will quickly be solved.

    2 yrs into college, the daughter was fed up with room mates and dorm/apartment living. Single bedroom apartments were outrageous... she was also working part time. We helped her buy a house thus applying rent toward house payment. There was actually very little difference. Then when she decided to get married and move, she paid us back but had the equity to put down on a newer house.... worked out great and we are all so thankful that we were able to help her...

    May 2022 Ideally, every parent should watch this video. Their dog seems to understand every word! College dorms (and most apartments, etc.) don't allow dogs so this TOW is the perfect 'dorm.' In the future builds: maybe the bathtub could be back against the wall and the water heater somewhere else so that no has to hurt their knees. Maybe everything could be raised at least 12" in order to have under the floor storage. Instead of windows, you could have at least one marine full opening window on the ceiling of the loft and the option of a door on each wall. Security steel artwork (sunburst is popular) grating over the doors, with a screen door after that opens, and maybe a dutch door after that, for security purposes, that opens at both the top and bottom could help air circulate on the hottest days. You could also have at least two max fans on the ceiling instead of windows. That would be helpful on the road and when people have to park next to a road, or crowded parking lot. What kind of insulation did you use in the walls, floors, ceiling? This metal option is probably less heavy than wood (easier to move) and probably less vulnerable in a fire crises. Just in case: consider posting directions on the refrigerator about the importance of sliding out the air fryer, toaster before and after using it for meals because a guest might try to use it when everyone else is asleep. Maybe post a photo of it hanging out into the hallway because young adults are often drunk and not reading directions. Millions have dyslexia or can't read without their glasses on so a photo may be more helpful than written directions. If you live in Tennessee, see TOWS similar to this made out of recycled metal from a window company at Incredible Tiny Homes with Randy Jones. He lost everything in 2008 and his many friends helped him to 'bounce back.' Ideally, every college should have many RV parks similar to this nearby because every shelter is having problems finding good homes for all their pets. These TOWS could probably help save every shelter pet in the USA, Europe, etc.

    Finally😂 someone I can relate to. I had my home built at 23. Why spent money on college when it can be used to invest in something you'll actually need. (My mom's words)

    Yes you have the right idea! Don't wait to retire later, retire now asap if you can because is not promised and like you said when you're old it's not the same, when you're old, you won't be able to do it and enjoy it like you can now...you live once so live it up NOW!

    Awesome mom. You daughter is so lucky and she appreciates what you have done. The transition from high school to college or just adult life isn't easy. Especially when they have no clue how to do things now a days. School used to teach that kind of stuff. how to budget a house hold, money etc. Now it's all about the tests and schools don't have all those extra classes any more. Even after school clubs and such are gone due to well budget cuts etc. Now she will get a small crash course with your help.she is lucky to to save money from a dorm. Those are expensive and for some just not safe. Tilly gets to be safe in her own home. That is one thing that all people should feel is safe in their own homes and you provided that for her.

      Thank you so much. It is a great way to teach her to live within her means. Where we were from everyone was sooooo consumed with money and what the have…. The big house and fancy cars. I believe the new rich is having a way more simplified lifestyle.

    But I want people to remember. It may be a tiny house. But it’s still a home her parents parent gave her. Most young people don’t have this… it’s huge !!! A privilege.. not a norm. Don’t feel bad about yourself if you don’t have parents who can provide this for you. You are still worthy and loved ♥️😘🇨🇦

      We wanted a 28 foot trailer but could not find one anywhere in the US that fit our time frame. My brother sat aside 60 days for the entire build and move(we did it in 40) but I agree I wish we could have found a longer trailer.

    It’s not just a hand. The Hamsa Hand is a universal sign of protection, power and strength that dates back to ancient Mesopotamia. ... The word “Hamsa” means “five,” representing the fingers of the right hand. For Hindus and Buddhists, it symbolizes chakras, energy flow in the body, the five senses and the mudras that effect them.

      Sarita, do you happen to have a source for when Hindus & Buddhists came into play concerning the use of the Hamsa? Was it somehow related to the advent of Islam in India? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamsa
