Baby bloopers during a tiny house tour 😂 Alyssa Baby bloopers during a tiny house tour 😂 Alyssa gave us a tour of her lovely farmhouse-style Aspen built by her family’s company, @korallustinyhomes 😍 with her 3-month little girl, Lucille. She had some potty business to take care of mid-filming—babies gonna do what babies do! 😂💩 Stay tuned: full tiny home tour coming to Tiny House Expedition’s YT channel soon!
Meet Meghan, a badass micro-farmer who lives on a Meet Meghan, a badass micro-farmer who lives on a 10-acre off-grid homestead with 4 yurts. She calls it Yurtlandia—a place to grow, enjoy slow living, and appreciate nature (link to tour in bio). 🌱🌞🌲She has been living on her property for 5 years, while her 30-ft yurt home has been here for 20 years. Since then, Meghan added a yurt bedroom attached to main home via a covered deck, a tiny yurt guesthouse, and yurt long-term rental. Additionally, she has a robust solar power system, a chicken coop, and a big garden. The 2 small yurt homes on the property are both 30 ft in diameter, reaching approximately 700 sqft. Interestingly, their layouts are pretty different, showcasing the various design possibilities of these round dwellings. One is completely open, like a studio apartment. In contrast, the other has an interior wall separating the bedroom and bathroom from the rest of the space. "Some of the challenges that I've encountered as far as the living space itself, in the height of the summer, when it's over 100 degrees, the middle of the day is just like pretty uncomfortable. And I do live 100% off the grid. So that's something to take into consideration. If you were grid-tied, you could probably plug in an AC where I can't. So I kind of have to live within the means of what I have and what I have available to me. Other disadvantages I think we're just big learning curves here that I had to learn and overcome. And then, a big skill set that I learned here was chainsawing. And you need that when you live on a gravel dirt road, and you do get a little bit of snow in the winter. I've probably had three or four or five trees fall across the driveway, and that's giving me access out of here. So I had to learn that skill so that I could be confident enough to get out of the property if I need to,” Meghan, @yurtlandia
