    Bryce, I love how you were able to interview her in a positive way, even when she was slightly embarrassed about the size of her bed, you pointed out that she knew what was important to her and prioritized it. You are always very respectful of others' spaces and are adept at pointing out design strengths. Another great tour!

      I think a lot of money has been spent on the interior. The kitchen has an expensive fridge freezer and the units aren't cheap either, plus the bathroom is not a low budget spec either. I think she's made a great home. Her choices would not be my choices - I wouldn't have gone for the built in couch, the expensive fridge freezer or the underfloor heating. Solar power and a water system would have been a priority for me, but the best thing about tiny houses is designing them to suit ourselves.

    • @mountainman4410
      @mountainman4410 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      @@wilmaknickersfit Underfloor heating is nearly mandatory in the far north. Without it, items will literally freeze to the floor. I've had it happen in my tiny-house, and I live in Tennessee. Moisture builds in the air and condensation collects under items on the floor. The condensation freezes and sticks whatever is sitting atop it to the floor. Plus, underfloor heating can be the most efficient way to heat a home when done properly. Very little energy usage.

    • @wilmaknickersfit
      @wilmaknickersfit 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@mountainman4410 Thanks I've never heard about that happening before. If it gets that cold inside wouldn't you just keep the heating/fire on low during the night? Bryce has shown us lots of videos from US and Canada and I haven't noticed underfloor heating mentioned. I actually have underfloor heating in my house, but I only use it for frost protection because if I turn up/down the thermostat it takes too long to react.

      @@wilmaknickersfit In a normal house with good skirting its a bit different than with a home on a trailer or on skids. I lived off grid in my tiny home for a little over two years and no matter how hot the inside was, the floors always stayed cold. The heat in the lofts would feel as though it were an oven. When your feet hit the floor though. It was a bit of a shock. Even though we have r19 insulation in the floors, the cold would seap through anyway. We did put up a skirting last year. That made quite a bit of a difference overall. As for instant heat, the in floor heating system isn't the best for that sort of thing. It's a "radiant" heat. Whereas it takes longer to feel the difference, once it has warmed up, the heat is retained and is much easier to maintain a constant temp. When an electric or other heaters that heat the air turn off, the heat dissipates quickly, and the heater must turn back on relatively fast. The floor has a tendency to hold the heat and keep things warm longer. Thermal mass is what's really going on. This is why I have a massive rock wall surrounding my wood stove. When the wall warms up, the rocks hold that heat long after the fire inside the stove has died. This help maintain a comfortable temperature longer.

    Something about her is so relatable to a part of me. I love how she does her dishes, cooking, and laundry outside. Inspiring :) People (of all human species) have been doing everything we do now OUTSIDE and only recently (as in, the past few hundred years) it's become taboo, strange, or unheard of to do things as simple as washing or cooking outside. We've been doing it for thousands of years, and you know what? It might be for the best that we try to go back to that simplicity.

In my g-g-grandmothers' day, they would have given anything to have running water INSIDE the house, to be able to cook INSIDE a house in AC or heat, to wash and dry clothes inside the house...with temps running from 115 to 18 degrees, think of the misery of "roughing it."

    So one thing I don't see you mention is what these tiny homes are like in storms. I live in the plains in a 38ft RV and sometimes the storms are so bad I feel like I'm on roughs seas. Other times it's so overly loud I can't hear anything at all. And the worst storms are absolutely terrifying. I understand these are sometimes built with better standards than RVs are, but I'd like to hear this kinda stuff in future videos too. But then again I'm probably in the minority with wanting to hear about stuff like that.

      Awesome! I left Nigeria at 18 and have only been back once, so I really cannot relate much, but it would be extraordinary if Nigerian millennials take up this minimalistic way of life. It would be fantastic for the environment and promote quality of life versus quantity and size, something lacking in the culture. Let’s hope.

      I have a rather small portable hydro generator that I use with my travel trailer. There’s a place deep in the wilderness that I camp for about 6 weeks at a time near a stream. I use this small unit when there so that I don’t have to rely on a generator. Solar is not feasible because of the forest canopy preventing enough sun to filter down. Mainly what it does is keeps my Lithium batteries fully charged by day and runs the lights at night.
      Since it’s not permanently installed it’s very easy to remove and doesn’t block the stream at all. She could definitely use one there, just don’t ask permission lol

      Don't worry about her. With that gas generator blasting for miles, no self-respecting Sasquatch would get near her. Besides, do you really think she's there at night?

      No way this is 20 square feet, is there something we missed ?

    • @rneustel388
      @rneustel388 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@zonderbaar I went back and watched it because I really couldn’t remember, but she has to be referring to 20 feet in length not 20 square feet in space. It seems odd that she would describe it as such when most people talk about the interior space.

    I think this is one of my favorite tiny homes. Beautiful space and design. I am impressed by her independent spirit and ability to adapt to things like not having running water. What she was cooking on her fire pit rack looked delicious!

    You should see our tiny hoses in Aosta Valley or Trentino/Alto Adige 😍 Where tiny has always existed, combined with mountain decor. It is a shame no one from here invites you... If I were not shy I would invite you myself!

      I'm not sure why people are being so critical. I saw no discomfort in this video at all. In fact I only picked up on calmness, and self assuredness.

    • @lucygray6162
      @lucygray6162 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I thought it was obvious she was not living in the house much. This old hippie thought it was absurd for anyone to believe she dressed like a millenial commercial to strut around the woods (which she was not comfortable doing hence her stumbling on the rocks), washed her velvet overalls in an outdoor tub, carried water, etcetera. Total crap. It's like when a ditzy coworker is lying their butt off, you know it, but they still keep on with the story...you feel stupid for listening to it.
      I would have respected her more if she'd just said she visited once a month to relax, and didn't pretend to be Yukon Annie.

    Hey Bryce, would you ever make a video outlining the steps you did to create a video? Like did you reach out to people/how did you find people to reach out to? or did they reach out to you first? Do you write scripts for your monologues? Do you fly around all the time?...

    • @livingbig
      @livingbig  5 ปีที่แล้ว +40

      We have thought about doing some behind the scenes videos. Sometimes people approach us, and other times we hunt the stories down online, or by reaching out to groups or contacts in the area to see what we can find. I don't pre-write my opening and closing statements. For the majority of our travel, we will fly to the country, but then drive around everywhere. We like to keep our airplane travel to a minimum.

    This is such a lovely home! I wonder, is that a memorial to a beloved pet? If so, what a unique way to honor an old friendship! Through taxidermy, often I've found the animals to look frighteningly fake, and I think the pelt is such a lovely way to remind oneself how precious all life is! I love her decor and her bed loft is so cozy! Cute retro refrigerator and generally just adorable!
