This is the fun (but really really hard) part. All the furniture, plumbing, electrics, painting and decorating… the whole nine yards. But at the end of our most ambitious project to date we are soOkumaya devam et

We began by adding lots and lots of insulation. Built the roof rack from aluminium scaffold poles, added cool lights and cameras. We put cameras on each side so that we can always see what’sOkumaya devam et
Building our tiny home Ivy (Part 1)

We initially had this idea when we first fell in love in 1990, for over 34 years it seemed like an impossible dream. Wouldn’t it be just amazing to make your own tiny home on wheels and go venturingOkumaya devam et
