Minimalist Couple Living in a Tiny Camper Trailer That Cost Only $1,800 – RV Life
Kathleen and Greg from Tiny House, Tiny Footprint (http://www.tinyhousetinyfootprint.com) decided to downsize their lives from a downtown apartment in Denver, Colorado to a 140 square foot camper trailer / mobile home. For the first year of their tiny house experiment, the 1969 camper trailer was parked in a friend’s backyard until they bought a piece of land where they could park the trailer and grow their own food.
The couple’s inspiration to adopt a minimalist lifestyle and move into a small space was multifaceted: they wanted to have a smaller environmental footprint, spend less money, have more time for outdoor adventures, and be location independent. While their trailer is parked in one spot most of the time, they do have the ability to move it if they want to. Their cost of living is also low enough that they can afford to freelance, giving them even more flexibility.
In addition to their trailer, Kathleen and Greg are also converting a 1987 Toyota van into a camper van for budget-friendly road tripping which will allow them to experience working on the road as digital nomads.
They are passionate about their own simple living lifestyle, and about sharing the alternative lifestyle experiments of fellow tiny home dwellers on their blog and (gorgeous) Instagram account.

My eve got delivered this am I’m a newtons wreck
And I will move back to idaho with my camp trailer and belongings and my doggy.
If me n my girlfriend seperate one more time I will be living this life style with my dog.I have the almost exact same layout as this trailer
See he’s got a great woman to cuddle I’d love to live like that again but when a woman hears camper they do like road runner but without the bebebebep!
I recommend IKEA FOLD TABLE NICE with director chairs
What I dont understand, for this sort of living you first need a piece of land which isn't cheap most places. Then you need an RV, hookups, sewage, electricity, etc. The correct legalities of your state, county, and city. As well as a neighborhood where the frugality of your living isnt at the expense of personal safety.
Basically if you are a normal person with a normal job and looking to use this as a way to save money, theres no way to do it. You're screwed and you have to rent an expensive apartment or house.
Super cool camper and living love love it.
damn. my husband and I are looking at moving into RV life but I have a large v energetic working dog & assumed a smaller place would be too tiny for us 3. now I'll reconsider. thank you so much for this enlightening video 💚🌼💕
I see the video is 4 years old. I wonder if they are still living the minimalist lifestyle?
I bet u save a ton of money
My trailer has that same floor plan
