Couple's Tiny Home helps to reduce monthly costs & open dream bakery!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Meet Meredith & Cody, a sweet couple living in a tiny house on wheels on Blackwater Bay in Flordia. They bought a 30 ft tiny home with a downstairs bedroom from Tumbleweed and made it into a reversed living tiny house by putting the living room in the bigger loft. The affordable cost of living helped Meredith fulfill her dream of owning a bakery! It's parked on her parents' property, where her childhood home once stood before being destroyed by a hurricane. If a storm comes, they have an emergency plan to tow their home on wheels away.

    Meredith & Cody love the simple life in their tiny home on the waterfront! It's 30 ft with a downstairs bedroom and a lofted living room. It's parked on her parents' property, where her childhood home once stood before being destroyed by a hurricane. Importantly, they have an emergency plan to evacuate with their home on wheels if needed. 🏡🏡👉 *Watch this tour to see how a 12 ft wide park model tiny home compares to an 8.5 ft THOW:* kzread.info/dash/bejne/l3qc062Rd5uWdpc.htmlsi=s1PMCa7xXMSeU47B

    I'm a Floridian and as soon as the video began, I knew it was Florida! What a unique story they have! The trauma of having a home destroyed by a hurricane was a big reason for wanting a tiny house. Being able to move their house to safety is a comfort to them. The reduced cost of living then allowed them to start a bakery, which is now funding the next step in their journey. They'll be able to buy their own land, build a house and keep the tiny house! This was such an enjoyable video! God bless you all! ❤

    I absolutely LOVE-LOVE-LOVE how they consider switching to an incinerating toilet an UPGRADE!!! Anytime I see a tiny home with a standard flush toilet (and all the attendant excuses for not going with compost/dry or incinerating) I cringe. Wish these sorts of alternative toilets would gain more traction! Water is NOT an infinite resource!

    I like the layout, especially a main floor bedroom! Did I miss how they plan to move it if there is a hurricane? Because neither of their vehicles can pull it. If they want to be completely off grid, they might want to rethink that Cinderella toilet. @vanwives recently made a video about their experience being fully off grid with the Cinderella and the company who makes it that they should check out before they make that change.
