About Us

Lauren and I are normal people with crazy dreams.  Lauren is a nurse, and spends most of her time saving lives (super casual).  I am a landscape and adventure lifestyle photographer, and I spend most of my time out in the woods, on the slopes of a mountain, or knee-deep in a creek.  Together we love spending time enjoying the beautiful outdoors, whether it is hiking, camping, kayaking, floating down a river with a beer in hand, you name it.

As much as we love mother nature, we also cherish being able to come home and simply relax.  Being able to spend hours in the kitchen with the heavenly voices of Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra playing in the background, while cooking up our favorite recipes, is truly one of our favorite past-times.  We are also big fans of Netflix, although Lauren falls asleep during 90% of the movies we watch.

Currently we are based in Atlanta, Georgia.  When our Tiny Home gets completed this winter, we will be moving to Bend, Oregon, where we hope to embrace the Pacific Northwest culture and spend as much time outdoors as possible. 

Come and follow us on our journey in our new Tiny House, as we figure out how to manage in an adventurous and unconventional lifestyle.

Just like that, we have gone from colorful leaves and cool nights full blast into winter.  Over the past two days, almost a foot of snow has fallen in Bend!  It seems like the last day it snowed this much was the day we moved in, back in March.  Back then, the snow and the cold temps brought to our attention to exactly how much us Floridians did not know about winter living as Tiny Home owners and how unprepared we were.  Looking back at our first couple of weeks in the house is quite comical now, but it was no joke at the time.  This post is intended to be educational in sharing our most valuable winter prep practices and products with you. Water for a Tiny Home in the winter is kind of like a credit card.  If you keep it liquid, you are golden, but as soon as it freezes, it is a royal pain in the butt to resolve.  To be 100% honest, we did not even know heated hoses existed before moving into our Tiny Home.  We were truly starting from square one.  After getting our water connected

Looking Back: 6 Months of Living Tiny

Image
Just like that, six months have absolutely flown by and all of a sudden we couldn't imagine living anywhere else except our Tiny House.  Over this course of time, there have been a comical amount of obstacles, yet somehow Adventure Abode truly became our home.  We have not posted to our blog nearly as frequently as we would like to, so we will use this post to share what it has been like adjusting to the Tiny lifestyle. Our new outdoor setup in our new parking space at The Camp Bend We have shared a bit about our struggles upon first moving to Bend in the middle of winter, having never slept a night in our home prior.  Our seemingly insurmountable list of issues included leaking water and gas pipes, a frozen water heater, water-logged countertops, and plenty of other minor issues which required repairs and attention.  As a result, I became pretty capable of fixing things, acquired a couple more tools, and got the opportunity to learn how our house works inside and out.  Alth

We have finally gotten around to creating a video tour of our tiny house.  Although we both feel awkward in front of the camera and my breathing in noticeably awkward behind the camera, we hope this gives you guys a good idea about how our house is set up, where we have storage, and how the space works for our lifestyles.   If you have any questions, just leave a comment below!
