Welcome to the Teeny Greeny. My name is Rob Greenfield and this is my off the grid, in the city, tiny house adventure.
Today I'm going to show you the inside.
And if it looks small, that's because it is small.
But there's room for two, so come on inside.
So this is it. This is all 50 square feet of it.
I bought it for $950 used on Craigslist.
I can't quite stand in it. It's just a tad bit too short.
But the great thing about that is that keeps me outdoors, which is what I want, a life out of doors.
Everything you see inside here is really simple.
The interior decor and everything has cost me less than a couple hundred bucks, probably.
Using places like Habitat for Humanity for the paint and the flooring.
Thrift stores for things like the blankets.
Craigslist for the futon, for example, that costs $75.
The lighting is a solar powered light from the solar panel on the roof.
It's just a 3 watt LED light bulb.
These candles are from a big lot dumpster.
And the baskets that hold my clothing are also from a dumpster.
It's pretty darn simple in here.
What I do is I spend my time in here sleeping, reading, and cuddling with my girlfriend.
And one of the ideas of having a small house is that this way I can't own too many material possessions.
So rather than having a big house that has everything I could possibly need inside of it,
I live in this tiny spot, which actually forces me outside to go out into my community,
to do things that get me immersed in the world, and just experiencing life outdoors.
So that's the inside of the tiny house, but what's more important is the outside.
