She Built a Tiny House and Found Financial Freedom & Community

[@laurac56]

This is one of the most beautiful houses I have ever seen regardless of size. Karin is a lovely person who, if I didn't live on the other side of the country, I would love to be friends with. Bravo! So impressed.

[@karinparramore]

+Laura C Ah, Laura, let's be friends! Distance is no issue. Check out our Simply Home Community page on FB. :)

[@HaunaniPao]

+Laura C I totally agree. And I thought of the same thing about Karin. I could be friends with her...she had me at the pink glasses!! :) #GeekGirls

I'm a carpenter and it always impresses me when someone like this creative lady builds a kick butt tiny house.

[@phillipsmom6252]

Agree......😀

[@davidataylorlea]

Design as you go is the new carpenter’s rule.

A goods carpenter is as good as a doctor

There’s no other greater joy than having financial freedom and a life free of debts, Thanks to Mr carlos cause he made me who I am today through forex trade and I’m really greateful to him. He has helped me a lot his with his special trading strategies to recover all my losses. Find him on IG @Carlos_1uptrades. Ask how to trade and invest in forex, tell him I referred you to him

It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into kzbin.infoUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.

[@GoodKarma1020]

I love the lady, out of pain she built herself up again!!! I relate

[@greciabarraza4986]

she seems like she could be an excellent English teacher, friendly and very well spoken. I love how she talks with her hands.

[@karinparramore]

LOL! My first degree is in theatre, hence the gesturing, and my second is in English. :D I teach at a couple of Universities now, but I teach Chinese medicine. Thank you for your kind compliment.

[@Syld0103]

karin parramore omg, Hi Karin! your fan club over here 😂. You are a classy lady with impeccable style and grace, we obviously really enjoyed watching you 🙂

I can do picture that

[@jamesh1402]

Watched your videos, just wanted to reach out and tell you I enjoyed them! :)

[@koreankytten]

What a warm, intelligent and beautiful lady! Her home is absolutely gorgeous and just radiates her energy 💕

[@jasminecozyjournalers]

That kitty made me so happy, so adorable.

[@PhotosOfBuildings]

One of the biggest things I get from all the Tiny House videos on YT, is that the owners are happy! Looking at their faces and eyes you can tell that their stress levels are vastly reduced by living this way.....I so want to do this for myself, and I have some inheritance coming soon so it's a definite possibility, although, here in the UK the weather isnt great and finding someone with a piece of land I could rent could be an issue.....As much as I can imagine myself living in a tiny home, its a big step at 44 yrs old......I just hope I can muster the courage to finally do it!

[@karinparramore]

Thank you so much for noticing that. I am so very happy and peaceful in Serenity. :)

[@itsmarialifestyle4355]

You can do it...start now... At 47...who cares about age or societal expectations...

[@debbiepotter4592]

I am almost 53 and I so want to do this. I would love to live in a tiny village in a tiny home. It would so great. And yes, they do seem happy don’t they?

[@dais1151]

I'm from rural Somerset and down here I know pleanty of people who've found farm land to rent with caravans etc, its easier than you think if you can find the right area! In my opinion go for it seems like people are happier when they do.

[@GhaliaVillanueva]

Im starting at age o 19😎

[@DPaquette]

awe love her kitty door, the portal windows and the perfect name for her home. Serenity is a beautiful name for a tiny home.

[@merle393]

Not all tiny houses look like HOME, but this one sure does look and feel like one.

[@twinkletoes22221]

really lovely and thankyou Serenity for sharing your personal space.

[@408SPLKINGS]

Nice & simple A beautiful home warm & inviting. Good thing about a tiny house on a trailer, you can move it until you get the doors & windows facing where you want them.... The extreme heat from the south beating down on a high ceiling can get unbearable...owner looks very happy & content Bravo !!!

[@Roy-gj1ph]

This tiny house looks so inviting.It seems like living in this house can make any sad person happy.And the new color looks so beautiful.

[@f.e.gaskin4268]

I love her comment about Firefly, I also love the program. She says she still needs to do things in her house, but it looks, cozy and inviting.

[@thomasweeks7992]

How can you not love this lady so down to earth.

[@veraniahinojosa2963]

I'm going to save up about 50,000 for my tiny house. I hope there are tiny house communities I could find. I'm only 16, but I love this!!!!

[@on_another_level5661]

I hope you're still interested in tiny living. You can do it, and your sense of financial freedom from rent/mortgage will be SO worth it.

[@annesummers09]

This is by far and away my absolute favorite tiny house. The best, most inviting one I've ever seen. I could live here as it is. No changes. Thanks

[@PaulCarterArt]

Great build and freedom. Thanks for sharing the time and the show is great she mentioned

[@joycejarrard6958]

I love that you named it Serenity, and I immediately thought of Firefly.

[@MariaMorales-kr1ps]

I love your tiny house, this is perfect for single or double. Very organize and the paint color coordinate very well, very refreshing. And outside are so many trees that generates healthy atmosphere. No wonder Karin is so inspired and happy with her tiny home. I'm inspired and looking forward to have one.

[@amethystle]

This place is beautiful! Well done on making your own home.

[@DivineWisdom-rs9bw]

You're a beautiful example for me as a woman living on your own and creating a sacred space for yourself to "Be". I love what you've created and I'm inspired. Thank-you

[@claudiariseborough4839]

Greetings from Canada Karin and I just love love love your tiny little home. I could just move right in and your kitty is so sweet and lovely. Take care xoxoxo

[@hannahsutherland6724]

Oh I love this place, the color decor, unlike the other tiny homes with all white decor.

[@iitomodachi]

I'm floored, thought of firefly with the name and thought no way could that be it! Hats off to that along with the rest of the house

[@JeffStroup]

I especially love the way the ladder is positioned. You don't have to move it and it conserve space while creating shelving. Plus, with the futon downstairs you don't have to climb upstairs to sleep...if you have BPH and have to get up multiple times during the evening.

[@jasminejones9058]

What an inspiring human BEING ! Thank you for being the example for a better way to live You look very happy and alive in the true sense of the words

[@tamiweber7241]

Periwinkle is perfect for “Serenity” I 💕 this house so peaceful 💚

[@patriciafascina4727]

This is my favourite Tiny House. Such a warm, beautiful hippie vibe. 💚

[@LadyPenelope]

+josh mcgee Right??! :D

[@jasminewilliams7146]

I completely agree :)

[@Manda11.11]

+josh mcgee agreed

[@wandaandrew6633]

On your windows in the ceiling...you can use 2 spring rods for curtains to keep out the sun when it is hot. Easy to do. And it looks very nice.

[@on_another_level5661]

I love this woman's attitude, and what a charming home she's built.

[@jamisonrayned.7052]

Firefly!!! like her even more. fabulous home and she has a wonderful life outlook

[@alicesrabbit7126]

i know i'm super late, BUT I LOVE THIS WOMAN. i just feel like i could chill, smoke a little weed, drink some tea, and just listen to her talk about her journey. she just seems like a cool, smart badass. i'm starting a similar journey that may take me to portland, as well.

[@1987shanellpearl]

Same. I swear I was thinking that while I watched. I can feel her and I share the same pain and happiness.

[@wolfpak8228]

[@andreareeder1030]

Love how personal her home is

[@zulmabeatrizmolina9443]

What a gorgeous lady, cat and tiny house!

[@elisabethm9655]

What a beautiful home...suggestion for the southern/summer heat skylight issue - make a slightly oversized thick foam insert to pop in for those hot sunny days. It would reduce the light, but it could be removed and shade the space while permitting some winter heat and light gain.

[@nxte283]

my favorite part of the video is when they show the loft! they just look so cosy and nice

[@jeanjackson2324]

It’s amazing what women can do, really cute, like those windows..........Especially her cat looking out of the tiny window.........

[@plauditecives]

What a lovely articulate person!

[@Mexicobeanpole]

Her house is beautiful and homey. I love the pitch of the roof in the loft. It’s kitty heaven. Love her hair. Love her spirit.

[@katiebouch]

Loved this video and the updated tour of the community. Y'alls videos are always so well done. I liked that you really lingered on the different parts of the house. I felt like I got a really good look at all the neat features and what made it so special and so amazing. This longer interview with her was great. It didn't feel rushed or cut off or that we didn't get the full story. Just bravo. Thanks for the great video.

[@theresawooten6455]

Loved it. Have been educating myself for 4-5 years. That video was perfect.

Yes! Thank you. I grew up in Saudi Arabia.

[@karinparramore]

In a tiny house there is only so much room for books so, priorities! :D

I love firefly too!!! And tiny houses of course :)

[@NadjaAfi]

What a lovely lady! I loved this episode. 🙏

[@bobgillis827]

Well done, Karen ! Good on you for bypassing the epic-scale mortgage/debt system and it's never-ending treadmill ! And a chance to use your creativity, too.

[@ceeceety2320]

I too am going through a very rough time in my life and am inspired that I will see light at the end of my tunnel by seeing you and the serenity you have in your life now. I have planned to build a tiny home in the years to come. I have already lived in one and absolutely loved it and knew that I would live that way again and for the rest of my life once circumstances allow me to get there. I also wanted to say that you are a beautiful person and it shines from the inside out! Also, I absolutely love your house. It's perfect and the periwinkle color is charming and whimsical. Tammie Miller

[@sasayaki]

I live in North Carolina and would like to find my own piece of serenity in the PNW one day. The house is charming in every possible way and looks very peaceful and cozy.

[@breathless9145]

I really love her bathroom one of the nicer ways I have seen the toilet area.. and I really like the hidden kitty box.. great job!!!

I adore all the color in this tiny house.

[@WV_Raised1983]

You should do an update on Karen to see if she is still in her tiny house.

[@diannaskare7829]

😜 a heavy fish bowl makes an awesome port child/pet window! the lip edge fits perfectly in a metal ring flashing/sash ! you can even make them open by putting a hinge on it !!!
