Mieke and Tom Lashford are tiny housers based in the Noosa Hinterland in Queensland and have created their tiny life on a hobby homestead.
Their journey to transitioning from living a life stuck in the rat race working 6 days a week and paying a big mortgage in a life not aligned, to moving to tiny house living and building a hobby farm in the Noosa hinterland and creating a space for connection and living simpler and more connected to nature.
Mieke and Tom were previously living in a second-hand tiny house and have recently moved into another tiny home which is absolutely stunning!
In this conversation we talk about:
- Why they decided to downsize from living in a 10-metre tiny home to an 8.4-metre tiny, and why it works so much better for them
- The benefits they have experienced from tiny house living
- How living in their first tiny home helped them to design their current tiny based on what worked and didn’t work, what’s most important to them and what their current needs are
- The importance of presence and creating your tiny home based on what you need in this moment rather than trying to predict what’s going to happen in the future (this can apply to everything we do in life!)
- All about their hobby farm, Summerset Hill… and more!
