HOW CAN WE LEARN TO LIVE MORE SUSTAINABLY THROUGH LIVING SMALLER?
THIS IS NOT ABOUT HOW SMALL WE CAN GO, IT IS ABOUT CHANGING THE WAY WE LIVE BECAUSE THE WORLD HAS CHANGED, AS WELL AS OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE IMPACT WE MAKE ON IT. THERE IS A NEED OF CHANGE IN THE WAY WE LIVE OUR LIVES.
TINY HOUSES MORE ALIGNED WITH AMERICA’S READJUSTED IDEALS
THEY REQUIRE LESS MAINTENANCE, SO THERE IS MORE TIME FOR YOU AND LESS HOUSING EXPENSES.
WHAT KIND OF LIFE DO YOU WANT TO BUILD FOR YOURSELF?
