He lives in a Single Level Tiny House for a freeing simple lifestyle

Published 2023-08-04
Meet Howard, a 62-year-old man living in a 30 ft single level tiny house on wheels. It's simply perfect for him. He downsized immediately after his father passed away. Then found a tiny house builder, only to discover the build was subcontracted out to someone else. Howard shares advice for others looking to buy a tiny home & the joys he's experienced since living tiny, like blasting his speakers--something he could never do in his old condo. 😉

    Howard looks good, he speaks well, he learns new things, he has smile on his face, he has a nice and clean little home and he took care of his dad. How could you not love this guy?
  • When I was growing up, my grandmother lived with us, sharing a bedroom with my sister and myself. When she died, unexpectedly, my mother could not move us all out of that house fast enough. She said everywhere she looked in the home, she saw her mother. I feel no matter how old you are when you loose a parent, you are left feeling like an orphan.
  • @janlint7434
    Nice to see a single man living tiny. You don't see that too often, Interesting to get his perspective on it all. Nice home Howard; thanks for showing us around.
  • @mrskwrl
    Man Howard is awesome. He is probably the first person I've seen who's inspiring for me at 60+ years old, living life, staying healthy, and doing what he wants. Looks like he's really enjoying life.
  • I always feel encouraged by mature people learning and teaching themselves how to do things. 😊
  • @happydogdays2982
    Nice guy! I love the artwork. Smart too keeps teaching himself.
  • @kayisehadebe1790
    He cracks himself up with his jokes🤣🤣🤣. Happy guy.
  • He keeps on learning and not letting technology scare him. That's great in itself. I wonder if the guys name was Randy he talked to about building his tiny house. He can be a snow bird for sure in his accommodations. I love the light, airy feeling of his tiny home and the fact that he can have the option to live off the grid. That is what I want. I see all these folks my age doing this, yes I can do this.
  • Losing your parents is so hard. I lost my Dad last year and my Mother and Grandmother this year. I am 63 and it is still hard. Love your tiny house!
  • @bonnies9861
    What a compassionate and kind man you are, taking care of your dad, as well as "handling" the contractors, etc. Your home is beautiful ~ the garden a work in progress!! You are just a sweet young thing [ this coming from a woman who is 75! ] ~ enjoy every moment of every day ~ and keep on laughing!!! Sending you light, love, peace, joy and abundance always. I love you.
  • His humor is priceless❤. I too have contractor nightmares. The price and the thought of moving my tiny is what made me go with a 1200sq foot home in a different state. I'm thinking of my retirement too so I plan to apply the tiny home mideset into my small stick built home. But YES this is the nicest man cave home I've seen👏👏👏👏👏
  • @CarolynnMc01
    I love the idea of one floor living in a tiny house. Over 60 who wants to get up in the middle of the night and climb down a ladder to go to the bathroom (not me). I love almost everything in this tiny house. As a woman, that washier/dryer combo wouldn't work for me and neither would the induction stove. I'd go with the gas, and I'd have more counter space. Even so, I realize you did what you're happy with and that's what matters. It's probably a good thing that you get blinded by the sun at a certain time of the day at your computer desk! LOL... makes you stand up or go find something else to do for a while. I wish you all the best. You have a great little home! xo
  • @cmbooks2000
    This is one of the best tiny house videos ever. No one ever talks about the journey. Everything about Howard is appealing as he is not afraid of change and willing to learn and grow. For those of us with a mortgage long ago paid off and considering downsizing, this is useful. Thank you for sharing.
  • @scherrigreene5602
    Love his art outside on his walls. Like his down to earth perspective.
  • @anonymous-ir3tf
    A wonderful video and a wonderful man. Great presentation.
  • @simplymejourney998
    I am 63 and built my tiny home in Louisiana it took five months to complete the inside. I love my tiny house..it’s 12/24 total 288sqft.
  • @sandydouglas3799
    That's an awesome home. So light and bright. I love that he still loves his music and especially the bass!!
  • @cmsmith3010
    I love this guy! He shared SO much great advice!! I appreciate him taking care of his needs for floor space, playing his music & movies loud and for all the high tech!! Looks like there is good insulation to keep him warm in the winter, although I would love to have the wood stove, myself. Thank you Howard, for presenting your lovely tiny home so well. (And love those sayings on the exterior walls!)
