Meet the Ocampos, a family of 4 living in a 260 sqft DIY tiny house on wheels. They made a major lifestyle change after Apryl experienced a vision from God. That inspired them to buy a tiny house shell and move across the country to start a new, simple lifestyle. It’s been a huge learning process. Together, they completed the interior for an extremely affordable price. Ivan’s building skills have improved so much that he now gets hired as a handyman. They bought a spacious lot at the Peacewind Cottage & Tiny Home Community–a wonderful place to raise kids. Now, they have plans to build a 750 sqft home on their land so they can grow their family through adoption.

This is not your typical tiny house journey, but it led the Ocampo family to a fulfilling, simple lifestyle. They bought an $11k shell, moved across the country, ‘roughed it’ while finishing the interior, and then bought a spacious lot at the Peacewind Cottage & Tiny Home Community. Now, they plan to build a 750 sqft home on their lot so they can adopt & grow their family. 🏡👉 *Meet the incredible woman who built their unique community & tour her adorable tiny home:* https://youtu.be/ntJqXk-eU2w?si=9avvZDrOZkQrEiEI
Great place
What a beautiful family!!❤❤❤❤
You can’t go wrong when you follow God! You’re inspiring! May God continue to bless your family. 🙏❤️
Nice house, but I personally don’t care for the dark colors. It makes me feel closed in and claustrophobic. Great yard and chickens.
BLESSED! I LOVE THAT YOU STEPPED OUT IN FAITH! LOVE EVERYTHING YOU GUYS HAVE BUILT!
What’s a blessing! You’re teaching your children that you can have things and pay for them in cash you don’t have to have all this stuff
Thank you for sharing! I think your future plans for adopting is beautiful! You have taken this time to learn that you don’t need all this extra stuff
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob! God bless this family on their journey to Jesus Christ. Narrow is the way. Loved the chickens they look so healthy. Homeschooling is the best!❤
Homeschooling is one of the best things you can do to train up a child! God is faithful!
I live small (some might say tiny) and I really appreciate the freedom from having a lot of possessions. I’m really digging the tree and the outdoor space you’ve created. You have an excellent philosophy on life.
How did you guys find your lot?
Tiny home, bible study, homeschooling, God is good!
You have done a wonderful job with your home and family .may god bless you and your family with everything you do .God will guide you in the right direction. ❤
