And here theres room for a Shower Cubicle a Kitchen Range and a sofa my apartment is three times the size and i live alone. Here for so i couldnt imagine living here with my boyfriend not for ever i mean for two weeks maybe fine you have to call very well organized. A Tiny House Movement began in the us and its all about going back to the basics stephanie firmly believes that less is more and even take it a step further. Here on this former campsite theyre building germanys very first Tiny House Community theyre planning to build twenty five tiny houses in the next three years which will provide a home for fifty people year round. It sounds lovely but i simply
cannot picture it all regrets materially guys you hardly have any stuff where do you keep all your things. We each of the books you books for a close eye because to work like this so. Thank you its that big this little this wide one seven on the pads t. Shirts two sweaters two pairs of pants dont forget we actually use all our clothes to say this is Stephanie Stephanie its wow most people in europe have countless items these guys have a box and theyve built their tiny house i repeat built it. Up right these stairs tell me their stairs its a shelf unit of stairs its stairs and dividing wall all in one. Scanner or you can go up thats the job so. So cold i must admit im impressed i love cozy knocks and this tiny house totally feels like
a proper home because of the kitchen is to me to sixty weve never had a bigger one apart from the kitchen philip and his girlfriends built everything themselves what can i say its incredible doesnt this is one point four square metres thats one point four square metres this tiny house is their pride and joy and for now its their only source of income they have to rent it out yes now this is where i sleep i cant wait. They put all their dedication into bringing this project to life and all their money the house cost Thirty Thousand euros and developing the community is time consuming steffi and philip work around the clock to make their Dreams Come True to idealists wanting to live a simple sustainable life im not sure i could ever does of them are you can share lots of things that you dont need to own yourself like a Washing Machine it uses up in Times Square Metre so thats a lot of space if i only got sixteen of. Them so we share
a laundry room were creating a Library Nobody needs to give anything up we can share it all and save space hired as madonna. Got sick and tiny i was doing this to make the world a better place when i was over in the us most people live. Like this it would definitely help wed waste less resources on different even the source the couple took out a big loan to buy the land the tiny House Village is now their home and it has to work they both dropped out of university for this some of the food that they cut the tiny house bug in the us but Parking Sites for many homes are still rare in germany although the demand is rising so theyre making space for themselves and other pioneers. They have to be pretty brave to do this i gotta say and probably a little crazy too theyre completely focused and theyre only in their mid twentys just sort of a lot of people say oh at your age all i did was polity. About tell them
well we know how to have fun too the. Next morning is cold and wet and i feel a bit like im camping outside its pouring obviously not everyone mind so half of the twenty five homes have already been sold so just how easy is it to downsize i can range to talk to alina she has an entire blog about minimalism. Morning alina. I only want things around me that i know that serve a purpose or that i love i think most people are surrounded by things they never really deliberately chose they just accumulated them. Im really interested in what you had to say in your blog about how to lead a more minimalistic lifestyle so. I dont think you need to push yourself too from. One of the most basic principles of minimalism is mindfulness. Not just in terms of owning stuff but in all areas of life
including how we interact with one another. We need to rethink things and ask ourselves why we feel the way we do. Why its hard to let go of this item and more that person and then learn from that. Treating objects like mental baggage i drag all sorts of stuff around with me in my backpack some things i hang onto for sentimental reasons others just out of habit and yes some things are dead weight. Id still like to get a third opinion on minimalism though so im off to leipzig. Im here to visit to b. S. He lives on the parking lot somewhere in a van. How does he. Know this hello. This used to be an ambulance built in One Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety Two tobie converted it into a home its about four or five square metres big. In the hole so you come in through the door and the whole circuit know theres obviously a way different the here we have a toilet its camouflaged doesnt look like a toilet but thats what it is led to the been shut me ok with me but ive never met anyone so excited to see this toilet with a letter this is. The new you actually use it you have the north its more like an Emergency Toilet but its good to know its there this is one of the let the hot not to let you look confident you know now heres the kitchen and gas stove im. Not seeing theres a fifty liter of water tank i do the washing up here the motion of an unlicensed coming out so on this is a little gas fridge before downsizing toby shared an apartment with several
roommates when he left he sold everything that wouldnt fit into this van. Young man because he got a pretty discover all kinds of Tricks Someone showed me a better way to wash my dishes and to Spray Bottles of the one with soapy water and one with plain water and ice breaker or dirty dishes and let them soak them convince bring them again with water and dry them out would have saved tons of water if your tank lasts longer than the holding that its not there. Next to the kitchen is where i work eat and do Anything Else that requires a table. Tobys monthly Living Expenses are less than Six Hundred Euros over here is my wardrobe. Because thats what he says its not a very cheap way of living things can get really expensive if he ever needs to take the van to the garage its also his source of income in the summer he tries to fess. And sells hammocks of course hes got wife eyes solar panels and a long board on them i dont think its a bad time i just need to do this a few pillows like the van gives toby complete autonomy he travels wherever and whenever he wants its been Twenty Two Thousand kilometers so far what he loves most is never having to plan for this but heres the pull out bed do you ever want kids. Sure two or three Little Rascals until they have to go to school i cant see you doing any harm it would be a good experience to leave you really end of this time rarely have i been happier you know this wonderful kind of happiness do you mean is it like personal freedom. This is because of all the worries people have i dont have them. Jesus is claiming i had i go where i like when i like that kind of book if i want to sleep i do last october i swore to myself i would never set an alarm again. I wake up when i want
to wake up just being able to sleep in makes me happy when you know. Toby says the biggest challenge in his life style is combating loneliness so he often visits old friends to catch up today hes taking his dishes along to save water as for me im at the end of my thirty six hour road trip do you really like this was this minimalism it means Different Things to different people. But what everybody ive just met all have in common it was just a question what really matters in life on. The front lawn and theyre putting all these ideas into practice shedding anything that doesnt make them truly happy as was the. Final its pretty impressive you can its made me think about how i might downsize a bit myself. I thought all that to think about it but right now me and my backpack
were out here.
