I love what you've done and how you've covered all the bases for work, play, guests, and community! What I don't understand is how you secure your home when you leave the premises? It looks in the vid like there's zero door or gate or anything to keep anyone (human or otherwise) out of your space. I also wish we could have seen your laundry and storage area since it looks like there's little storage anywhere else. But wow, what an incredibly fun and unique home! Kai will have so many great stories to tell along the way..

I absolutely love this. Love how they kept the airstream as a bedroom and repurposed parts from it into the new build. I love how it's so open and with all the glass it really brings the outside in and makes you feel like you're a part of nature rather than apart from it. 💚 It's a beautiful home they'll be able to enjoy for years to come at a very reasonable price.

@@hopscotchtheglobe thank you! When I was younger I would loved to have lived a more alternative life but things like van life and tiny house living as we know it now weren't even on the radar. Now I have responsibilities that keep me where I am but I can learn how to build things that I can incorporate into my current or future life. I used to build houses from the ground up with Habitat for Humanity and my husband built houses with his contractor uncle to pay for college and we built our outbuilding as well as reimagined a few rooms in our house so we know some stuff but are always willing to learn new and different things. 😊 That concrete island, kitchen & bath are just really neat.
