In this film, we take a tour of Adam and Sian’s beautiful off-grid tiny house truck, which was built using mostly reclaimed materials on the back of a 1969 Bedford. The house truck is full of light and space, with an open-plan kitchen, living and bedroom area and a fancy shower set-up on the back porch.
The couple describe the building process and the events that led to their decision to leave a conventional home and city life and take up this much simpler, more satisfying way of living.
