When hub retires we'd love to buy a caravan and do the grey nomad thing and travel round Australia, but we also reckon we'd need a base somewhere....maybe a shack near the beach....a little place to return to and store our family heirlooms.
We wouldnt need much...and just as I was ruminating on these possibilities there was a show on ABC Radio National on the Future Tense program about tiny houses!
Totally entralling!
You can read about one tiny house here but I think this is a bit too tiny for us. Great for one person, perhaps.
However some of them are very, very tiny!

I'm quite partial to this minimalist design -

But this won't happen for a few more years yet, but I can dream, yes?
In the meantime some other sweet tiny houses for you -

I would choose the Tumbleweed. As long as the water level didn't change. Interesting selection Tess.

I love tiny houses. That minimalist one is amazing. I think the most important thing is where the house is located whether it be the woods or beach, it should be magical.
ReplyDeleteIt is very sweet isnt it Lori?
ReplyDeleteI guess it would have to be a floating pontoon...but then I might get seasick if it was rough ; }
I agree Sonia, you have to find the right location and then you'd be able to enjoy more of the outdoor space too with less house on the land.
ReplyDeleteI found you!
ReplyDeleteWhat an eclectic collection you have here...
nice to meet you in person today in Wollongong!
