Tiny House Tour

Will and I have been looking into tiny houses for a while now. I love the concept of a tiny house, because its affordability gives you complete ownership of your home without having to worry about a mortgage, and it's size allows you to be efficient with your space and utilities. You can't just go and buy a ton of stuff -- you have to think about what you really need, how functional it is, and how it will fit into the space you have (in other words, it'll keep me from being a pack rat). In addition to all that, you have the freedom to relocate and bring your whole house with you.

We recently were able to see one in person for the first time! We want to say thank you to Denise and Tom of Hummingbird Housing for showing us around their tiny home.






Their home is 22' X 8.5' x 13.5' (190 sq. ft.) and, even though it appears small, it feels quite spacious and comfortable!

And the loft itself!


Our visit with them showed us that living small is entirely do-able!
