We’ve learned a lot of lessons in building a house, not to mention the broader homestead over the last few years but knowing when to walk away might be the biggest one and it’s time.

A few years ago, after living the full-time Van Life, we put our keys in the drawer and set out on a new adventure…building a cabin in the middle of the woods. Well, a cabin WAS the plan…until we saw the cost of lumber. At that time, lumber was at an all time high so we got a wild idea to build a shipping container home instead of the cabin we planned. We’ve had a lot of wild ideas over the years but this one definitely took the cake! Join us every Sunday as we continue to create off the grid homestead vlogs, sharing our adventures as we build our own alternative lifestyle of living off the land and building a home out of shipping containers!
How did we get here? We're Tyler and Todd and after a year of full time travel living the van life, we had to adapt when the world changed. To keep busy we’ve converted our tiny house on wheels into a fully functioning off grid home that has everything we need. Realizing that none of us know how long this new normal will stick around, we made the decision that building a home here was the best decision we could make. We've spent the last year doing EVERYTHING involved with coordinating and planning the build ourselves as well as setting up this off grid property to be able to provide us with the the food we'll need in the future. That led us to needing a place to live while we realized our dream of building a shipping container home. After lots of searching we finally discovered Geodesic Dome's and it was the perfect fit for us while we took our time with the container home.
