  • For this young family, life in a tiny house is largely centred around a desire to live with a lighter footprint and do something good for the environment.

    Going zero waste and cutting out single use plastics has been helped by living in a tiny house, where the small home makes the family more aware of their consumption. Mark, a Vegan chef has also leveraged debt free living in a tiny house to start his own plant based pop-up restaurant.

      If you live in US?other moderncountries too? the city or nearby smalltowns, there still MANY small REFURBISHABLE/REMODEL small 750-1200sqft, 1 story 1950-70's homes you can buy cheap foreclosures/empty & more $ you can literally be off grid put up panels & small windgenerators. Water collect from roof, compost, garden your yard, redo roof/walls for lighting/sun heating. Some places allow raise chickens/rabbits goats fenced like dogs. Early 90's b4 this was a 'fad-thing' I saw silliness ofowning huge house space and waste. Bought a house for less than paying apt rent and started using the savings (screw landlords and bankers) to be more environmentally sound as I kept up with the tech & movement. Instead I intend to be a little old lady in a self sustaining OWNED home in the city next to downtown.

      English Muffin Cloth nappies can easily go until baby is potty trained, but once baby is on solids, I imagine they will need a detergent to get rid of the smell. Also, my cloth nappies/ diapers would get a strong ammonia smell, we did use white vinegar and bicarbonate of soda and sunshine but sometimes they NEED a proper detergent.

      @caledoniabeautifuleden8584 5 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      umma a Thankyou for replying, that is interesting, we would often have to strip our nappies but always had the same problem. The nappies I had were recommended to be washed at 60 degrees Celsius. My youngest is 9 now, I don’t need nappies for babies anymore, just reusable san pro for myself but this is good to know, if a friend has similar issues I can pass on your advice!

    • @lpm67
      @lpm67 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Sunshine and snow are fantastic for dealing with cloth nappies. Just scrape, soak and then cold wash with detergent....I liked grated sunlight soap, rinse well and hang out in the sun to dry.

      I think that the "gotta have bigger/more" lifestyle soon proves to ALL the people that its a wrong way to live, but not all of those discover the better alternative. That is why we should teach by examle and show children that you can be in connection with nature and yourself, without the "rat race" part.

      Whats in a name I get what u mean but a lot of those ex vegans were eating very unrealistic and or had digestive issues meaning it was difficult for them to process legumes so they’d be nutritionally lacking. Also many receive bad advice and do not so healthy things such as extensive water fasts, eating not enough calories and having mainly mono meals ( only eating papayas for a meal or just avocados or just mangos). While I thing the vegan diet can be done properly I don’t think there is enough good information out there and many influencers can mislead people. But I believe from the research I’ve done that a proper balanced vegan diet is far healthier than the standard western diet. But I don’t like when people preach and push their ideals on you. It scares people, including myself, away. They should just let people come to them if they want to learn.

      As a person who doesn't have that help, I think it's really doubtful I would buy and live in a tiny house. A small apartment? A used airstream? Sure. But when I can buy an older but nice 1200 sqft house for around $140k, it doesn't make sense for me to build my own house and buy my own land.

Well, you could use soap, but I think he said they don't use soap or detergent. So how does their stuff get clean? And baby poops into the diapers, too. They just wash it down the sink? What will they do once the poop gets solid? No tissues or toilet paper allowed or are they allowed? How do you get poopy diapers clean without a detergent? Or have I heard that one wrong?

    I like the back to nature feel. I grew up in the deep woods on a mountain side, with creeks, ponds and even a waterfall that could only be reached by trail. Walking in the mountain and studying various creatures and plants never got boring. Now I look on Google Earth and see that the mountain is now covered with houses. My mountain is gone, and makes me very sad. It was so quiet and peaceful. The solitude made me strong for the future. I long to find a place like what I used to have and feel free again.

  • @tahoe7779
    @tahoe7779 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I agree with not keeping foods in plastic, I just wish Costco and other warehouses sold bulk foods in paper bags like Whole Foods! We transfer our foods to all sizes of canning jars, but we recycle a ton from all that packaging! Plus they use a lot of plastic wrappings.
    We use rags as paper towels but also paper towels for raw meats. It would be a hotbed for bacteria to toss rags with raw meat juices in with the rest of the dirty laundry!
    We bought most of our kids clothes used because they grow so fast, kids clothes are hardly worn and are usually in great shape. Tag sales were our friend.
    We used cloth diapers, and our kids were rash-free. We do a lot of the same and we are purging our stuff getting ready for retirement now in a few years. It is freeing to only keep those things that bring you joy and are useful!
    I love the idea of the minimal lifestyle and no clutter where here, most of this couple's things have a purpose, but, crawling across the floor to my bed and crawling back across to go downstairs in the middle of the night to go potty is a bit of a stretch at our age (60's).😁
    Plus, not everyone has family land where they can stay free, and utilize Mom and Dad's home and yard when needed. This couple is very blessed. I'm glad they are looking ahead to finding their own piece of property some day, though. Then it will truly be "their" homestead. Until then, Mom & Dad are helping them out which is wonderful, and they can save some money to do so.

    Step one to debt free tiny house living: Have a family with acres of land to live on. Step two: Make sure one of those parents is in the construction/building industry to help you "DIY" for free labor.
    Look, I love this house and the couple seems nice. But they're only debt free living because their parents took on debt to live on their land. Nothing is free.

      eqwoody You don't seem to understand what debt free means. You can pay a million dollars for something and be debt free, if you had the million dollars and paid in full in the first place. A lot of people have saved up what is a down payment for a house, and instead use that money to make a little house. Of course these people in this video had a lot of help, but plenty others can do that without the help. In a lot of places that aren't mainstream, a plot of land can be as low as a few thousand dollars. Obviously if you were to go into this with no money being a teenager or college student with no job, you wouldn't be debt free because you'd have to get a loan. That's called common sense. Feel free to use it. but it also is like paying a car payment (or more depending on what you buy) if you get financing. Compared to the 1000 dollars or more it can cost for a traditional house. Please, please, please just use your brain and figure things out. It's not that complicated

    Upon seeing this tiny house I felt such a serenity! I really love the layout all around the land, the gardens and as you come up on the porch it is so aesthetically pleasing! I really love the way you used multiple types of wood to create an interesting deck. There is some thing that is even going to get prettier with time, especially if you
    revarnish every so often. Very clever❣️ I found this family to be very frugal and wise in how they built this house. I really was glad to see how much they were willing to re-purpose and recycle to keep their cost down and for being as young as they are I am very happy for them to get into a tiny house as cheaply as they were able to!! Everyone needs a helping hand on the way up and what a lovely place for this baby girl to grow up… For however long she is able to. Nothing like having Grandma and Grandpa so close..
    I loved all of the garden food being grown and it was really nice to see that he was cooking while we talked. There is a huge movement for the next generations to eat healthier and I was fortunate enough to grow up on a farm and had that available to me not only because my parents grew acres and acres of garden but my grandparents as well. We can do and froze and did so much to reserve food for the winter and help others in need. To this day I garden and cook and bake and help others because it’s a healthier lifestyle. This young couple I have made SO MANY WISE CHOICES FOR THEMSELVES, THEIR BABY, THEIR LIFESTYLES THAT ARE Going to Sustain them into the future! I really enjoyed getting to see you there tiny home and I wish them the very best. They were just a lovely couple… So very calm & kind💕💕

      Most of these homes are tagged as "RV's". You then fall under D.O.T. size and weight restrictions!
      (Tiny homes only save you from building codes).
      In the States, many tiny home owners are leasing land because it's illegal to riside in one. (camper, shed, bus) etc.
      The real issue is getting domiciled! Anybody can "build" an out building or throw a school bus on a plot of land... as long as you don't claim it as a residence.
      No thanks to the i.d. act post 911, it makes this lifestyle harder to obtain!
