hey… my computer just blocked an attack from tiny revolution site. Blackhole kit, it said. I seriously doubt the people at tiny revolution are responsible, but they may not know that their site is being used for something like this. If you have an email contact for them, please give them a heads up. Thanks!

http://SmallHouseLife.com/ is a new site that is rapidly growing due to the overwhelming community support of interested readers.

While not ‘tiny’ necessarily but more > “Dreaming of a small house? Ready to right-size? Small houses can live BIG with creative design and proper planning. Come along as we redefine how we live.”

Please let me know.. Dee

I’ve wondered about the feasibility of a tiny house with a 3 kid family, too. I’m thinking maybe they can stay in the conventional house and I just need a tiny house for myself in the backyard.;)

Don’t forget about tiny houses as a way for disabled people to have an independant life. It is much easier to get around (when going the 20 feet to the kitchen is a daunting and painful task, you don’t want to do it and you don’t eat. But if it is 5 feet away, then life is much easier!)

Roatan, Honduras is one of my favorite places…the tiny house concept would definitly sell there.

Thanks for the list, there were a couple of links I had not seen before. I’m building my own small house with the help of some friends. Feel free to watch my progress at my blog if you like.

Thanks.

A small mini basement will provide solid, non-movible foundation that will supply storage and even temperature. If used as an extra room, an egress window will be needed. It is always better to use a mini basement for utilities, access panels, pipes…if you can’t go out or up; go down!

Hello
My name Don Kreischer, I wanted to tell everyone about a project that I and now a good friend kilely are embarking on. In recent years I’ve see many movements in which I thought were / are great. However the mini houses have long been a favorite. I recently traveled to Honduras in an effort to sell some property I bought 8 years ago. My business in the states was getting worse and worse. I didnt know when to say enough is enough and give it up. But what would I do then ? So I decided to sell this property on the island in north Honduras. ( Roatan ). More like paradise than any place I’d ever been. It’s an old british colony and the has the second largest barrier reef on the planet. Diving, snorkeling, fishing, tropical fruits and weather. It has it all !! In addition they speak English because of it’s British roots. The island is still relatively umknown or undiscovered at this point. Simply paradise. I’m getting off track. I went down to meet another Floridian to try and make a deal. They day I arrived he had a family emergency and had to return stateside. So here I am, I though well I will just enjoy the week and try to enjoy myself. one night I was driving through West End ( a hip spot with restaurants, bars and shops ) and I got to talking to a woman named Kilely ! I explained my current situation and she said ” why don’t you sell mr a small piece? ” I told I could take her to the property in the next couple days and show her. So here is where the magic happens. We drive out to the land. We get out of the car. She says ” I LOVE IT “. Why wouldn’t she ? It’s views are spectacular, overlooking the carribean sea. Beautifull turquoise waters !! We are up on a hill with incredible breezes, etc. The list goes on. Now I’m asking myself, why am I selling it ?? Then I quickly remember my dwindling business in the states. She says how much for this piece right here 10′ X 18′. That’s ten feet by eightteen feet! I said what are you gonna do with that ? She said ” build a tiny house “. Have you ever heard of one she said ? The blood rushed from my face. I had heard of them and I have even built some. But I never connected the two together. Meaning my property and the mini houses. This was my answer. I had always tried to figure out what to do with my land. But between build house, hotel or nothing I just couldn’t figure it out. But this was it. A mini community. An Eco community. Low impact housing, using all the natural resources the island offered. Wind, rain and solar. This was big !! Plus it is witting reach for many people. Low cost getaway or permanent houseing on an island in the carribean where people spoke English and they ( you ) lived among like minded people. Kiley was my new hero. She had great ideas and her passion for such a place was inspiring. Her one demand was we have a mini yoga building with a view ! I happily excepted her demand ( request really ). Kiley is the first buyer of many I’m sure. If you would like information about this unique adventure. Please contact Don at 352.278.8355
