we are Carrie and Shane Caverly. We are currently on a new adventure of designing and building a tiny home on a trailer foundation that we can live in and move to wherever we want to live.

why did we build a tiny home? well mainly because we grew tired of paying mortgages and rent and having nothing to show for it. we want to put our time and efforts into something of our own – something we can call home – and hopefully something we can learn from and put more back into the river of life. Also, we want to make a change toward smaller, simpler living. we have too much stuff. and if everyone has too much stuff then how can the earth possibly sustain us? we’d like to develop a lifestyle that is simple, adventurous, and fun!
