Self-Sufficient Man Built an Off-Grid Tiny House Homestead & Lives on a Minimal Budget

Anders is living off-grid in a tiny house that he built on a budget, along with his sweet dog Borsimat. He built the tiny home over 4 years ago with natural and sustainable materials, including untreated larch wood, recycled metal, wood fibre insulation, and secondhand windows. He has solar panels and batteries for his electricity, he collects rainwater from his roof for all his water needs (including showers), he heats the house with wood from his forest as well as with scrap wood purchased from a nearby mill, and he has a composting toilet in an outhouse to keep smells out of the house. He is also growing a lot of his own food in his permaculture gardens, including fruit, vegetables, and soon to be mushrooms. This type of self-reliant off-grid homestead lifestyle is a lot of work and there are constantly chores to do, but Anders really enjoys the benefits of spending more time in nature, living with fewer expenses, learning new skills, and having more time to spend with his family :) You can follow and find out more about Anders and his tiny house life here: https://www.youtube.com/@andersboisentinyhouse https://www.instagram.com/andersboisen.dk/ Thanks for watching! ------------------------------------------------------------- STAY IN TOUCH! ------------------------------------------------------------- Website: www.exploringalternatives.ca Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/exploringalternativesblog Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/exploringalternatives/ ------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------- We want our channel and comments section to be an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome to watch and contribute.
