Ok, one from left field 'cause it's Friday.
There was an article in the paper this week about a guy in Canberra building his Tiny House in his parents backyard because it was an economical way to get his own space. It turns out that there's quite a following for this sort of thing globally for a number of reasons ... reduced cost, reduced environmental impact and hippies (:U).
I couldn't live quite that small and I'm pretty sure my family wouldn't be keen :no:. But I do have a strong preference to keep things small where possible and use space wisely, small car - less fuel, smaller house - less stuff to buy and maintain ... etc. etc.
I've always dreamt of a little cabin next to a lake and the pictures when you Google tiny house movement are inspirational.
Clearly this will not appeal to most but maybe it's interesting in some respects to others as well ... thoughts?
