We are Patrick & Laura (& Redford), Living in a 192 sq. foot Tiny House on Wheels since 2016. This is the story of how we downsized from our 1,400 sq foot condo to living the (sort of) minimalist lifestyle. Our goals were to create more financial freedom, to live a more sustainable lifestyle, to make our health a priority and to make more time for travel and outdoor activity. We love camping, backpacking, hiking and kayaking. In 2019 we purchased a 16 foot Scamp Travel Trailer to travel and scout out a piece of property where we can homestead in the future. Lets make it happen!

    Ep. 5 The Story of Our Tiny House Part 2: Building, Delivery, Furnishing, Parking, Downsizing, and finally Moving IN

    Ep. 5 The Story of Our Tiny House Part 2: Building, Delivery, Furnishing, Parking, Downsizing, and finally Moving IN

    This episode is part 2 in the story leading up to our transition into the tiny house movement. We signed the contract to start the build in January 2016 with our Builder: Titan Tiny Homes of Chicago. From then until it was delivered on April 19th we had a lot to prepare for...including figuring out where we were going to park it long term. Once we had our spot and the house rolled in then the REAL work began- we spent several weeks finishing the interior and getting ready to move from our 1,400 sq foot condo to our 192 sq foot Tiny House on Wheels :)

    We are just a normal couple living a rather unusual lifestyle in a Tiny House on Wheels (192 square feet) trying to fit more adventure, travel and exploration into our lives! We love to go camping, hiking, backpacking, kayaking…and traveling with our 16 foot Scamp Trailer. We have an awesome Adventure dog named Redford that is up for anything. Come with us as we Let New Adventures Begin!

    Ep. 4: The Story of our 192 sq ft Tiny House on Wheels: Part 1 & my First Vintage RV

    Ep. 4: The Story of our 192 sq ft Tiny House on Wheels: Part 1 & my First Vintage RV

    This is the story behind what lead me to living in a 192 sq ft. Tiny House on Wheels. It started back in 2010 when I first saw a Tiny House picture on Pintrest and watched some YouTube videos & I knew that a tiny house was for me! Then started the process of planning, saving and overcoming some major setbacks to finally make it happen. This is Part 1 of that story

    Ep. 3: Driving a Fully Electric Car for 3 Years - Is it really Better? Nissan Leaf EV Problems

    Ep. 3: Driving a Fully Electric Car for 3 Years - Is it really Better? Nissan Leaf EV Problems

    This episode is an update on my experience driving a fully electric car (2015 Nissan Leaf EV) for the past 3 years- including the time my car would not start, driving in snow and ice, maintenance on an EV and the environmental impact. This is an update after the video I put out last year on our YouTube Channel (Let New Adventures Begin) talking about my experience at 2 years of ownership. You can find the companion video to this review - also on our YouTube Channel :)

    Note :) All strange background noises are attributed to my dog Redford wanting to be involved. I live in a Tiny House on Wheels that is 192 s.q. feet which creates some challenges in filming/recording content - but it is my experience that there is no ideal environment and there will always be distractions & these distractions are just another opportunity to work on our FOCUS :)

    Let New Adventures Begin: Our Transition to Tiny House Living & the Freedom that we gained.

    Let New Adventures Begin: Our Transition to Tiny House Living & the Freedom that we gained.

    In this introductory episode of Let New Adventures Begin I give you an overview of our Lifestyle transition that happened in 2016- Moving from a 1,400 sq foot condo into a 192 sq foot tiny house on wheels.   Through this transition we were looking to change our financial situation, improve our use of sustainable resources and create more time to travel & enjoy outdoor activity.   This transition has been very successful in helping us to reach our goals, but it has not been without (major) challenges and obstacles that we have faced along the way. This podcast will be used to share our experiences, what we have learned and hopefully inspire you to make a lifestyle transition of your own!

    >>>>>>

    We are Laura & Patrick,  a "normal" couple living a rather unusual lifestyle in a Tiny House on Wheels (192 square feet) trying to fit more adventure, travel and freedom into our lives!
