ValStilwell's insight:
Nice big tiny house - I really like the tour video. It helps to get ideas about what can be done and more. The thing with a house of this size, is the ability to tow it if it's on wheels. And it's not as if one is really going to tow it like a sport trailer.. it's the notion that it can be moved that's important.

Tiny house living has become very popular, but it's not for everyone. Here are some reasons why you may not want or be able to live in a tiny house.
ValStilwell's insight:
I always find it fascinating when people determine what they can't do rather than what they can do. Intentional living is a bare bones look at your reality, what you're willing to spend your time doing. If I had kids at home, I'd rather spend time with them than in an office with someone else. I'd rather travel in the summers then grind it out in front of an air conditioner...but how do you tell someone who's never thought about living this way because it's so counter culture with less is more?
