🏡 TINY HOUSE FAQ:

[KJ-xcqs]

There are a lot of single seniors who would thrive while living in a supportive tiny house community like this. More need to be created.

[artsyamy]

Bought her tiny for 75th birthday!?! Man! Shes an example of how we can start our life again or new things at 75 years old !! Love it💟

[prettyladie]

This was the best episode…I can’t believe she’s 77..she’s absolutely beautiful & her dog is too cute 🥰

[Dr.Nagyonfaj]

I love the fact that she can stand up in the bedroom. The inability to do so is what I don't like about most tiny home designs.

[bekind]

We absolutely need more Tiny Homes Community like Escalante Village all over the world!!!

[MaryOKC]

Oh my goodness…she picked up the house on her 75th birthday and who knew she was even 75 years old! It’s been a couple of years … She looks great! and I’m happy for her ❤️

[tainadelcaribe]

I really like that she seems genuinely happy with her house, she’s independent, enjoys practical things and has what she needs without clutter. I especially like that she unapologetically replaced the couch with a comfy chair she liked because that’s what she wanted and didn’t care to have the expected couch everyone gets for their tiny houses.

This was such a good tour, and thank you. I am 74, and during the housing downturn I lost my larger home, and I had to move in with my kids. So many foreclosures those years. I found a little 500 hundred square foot house for 1500.00, and it needed so much work. I bought it, and did most of the work myself. I never thought I could live in such a small space, but you never know. Much happier now I have been here eleven years, and still working on the house. Thanks this should be an inspiration for all.

[denisepotter]

She started over at 75, this is proof we can keep on moving no matter how old you are. Thank you for sharing this. Love this ❤

[DawnOldham]

I loved this interview and her home is lovely. She is a wise woman who chose wisely! Living in a community of tiny homes adds so much to having a tiny home. Having others who are thinking along the same lines as neighbors is priceless.

[Healedhomegirl]

Something about her is just refreshingly authentic I love her home!

[conniekimble]

I am 65 and have lived in my tiny almost 2 years. I LOVE this life, but one thing I am jealous of with Sandy's home is the short climb to a bedroom where she can stand up.

[christinestephenson]

She is one of the best ambassadors for tiny homes that I have ever seen! The house is really beautiful and well made and I love how her bedroom is done, up on the second level of the 5th wheel trailer. She definitely has plenty of storage and the house fits her perfectly. I loved the village too, it's like living full time in your RV in different parks. Everyone thinks the same so lots in common. One of the best tiny home videos I've seen!

[DrWelp]

She’s fabulous! Hard to believe she’s 77. Wow! Living tiny definitely works for her.

I am 74 and so very much want to downsize to a tiny home. I am so impressed with Sandy taking the plunge at her age and doing what she wants to do instead of following what everyone thinks she should be doing. This is a perfect solution for so many elders who still want their independence, affordability of a home that is theirs, and yet surrounded by others who are close by for comfort and security. I really hope more contractors and private landowners will take notice of the real need for more tiny home villages, especially for the senior. I am psyched up and ready to go !

[rosemarywilliams]

Your encouraging people my age. I just turned 36 and I've been working since I was 17 and feeling drained and tired I just want to live tiny have a home that belongs to me without a mortgage. She's soo right we don't need a lot to live happily and since starting my minimalist journey in 2017, it's amazing the things we buy just to kill time. Even if we can't all find a tiny land or community, just buying a smaller footprint when buying a home is moving towards a more freeing lifestyle🤗

[deezildee]

I have after so many years, been so uncertain about my future (at 52) & I've watched a few of these episodes however this story has helped me see this chapter in my life. This lady has inspired me so deeply & her tiny home holds everything that I love & need in life. Thank you so much for sharing this lady's story & her letting us in like she did. I'm so happy for her ❤️🙏

[sparklej]

Sandy is an inspiration. With great deliberation she choose her best life. I'm 70, and Sandy, you really make me think.... Blessings!

I’m a nurse and absolutely love the fact that being 77yrs young your mobility is awesome.. My Granny was also very active mind intact up until her death at 102.. My oldest sister is 78 also a nurse is still working a full time job as well as overtime.. My mother unfortunately loss her life to cancer of the cervix at age 43.. I was 9 so my sister raised me…
I worked mainly cardiac care and med surge then surgical .. where I’m currently working.. I have seen as young as 21yr old to 97yrs old we’ve moved to a nursing home .. it’s like people retire to hold down the furniture instead of being active..
You’re an inspiration… ❤️ Being social on occasion is great.. and I see living tiny has allowed so much time to be active not idle.. wishing you great health to continue your journey ❤️

[artxlife]

Ugh she is so cool. I just love this peek into what retirement can look like for more active adults!
