This Family Built a 240-Square-Foot Tiny House on Wheels-and Then Traveled 7,000 Miles Across the U.S.

"their custom-build tiny home wasn't just a minimalist lifestyle choice-it became the key to a life of near-constant global exploration. In 2018, the Wilnaus sold their house and most of their possessions to travel full time. Armed with just two backpacks each and a remote digital business they built themselves, they spent a year hopping between countries-Ireland, England, Scotland, France, Spain, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Holland, Italy, Slovenia, and the Czech Republic-documenting their journey on their YouTube channel Tiny Living Big Adventure."

""Minimalism found us gradually," Hannah told Travel + Leisure. "After those years of traveling with just two carry-on backpacks each, we realized we didn't need much. It was freeing." But after exploring over a dozen countries in Europe and Asia, the Wilnaus realized they had barely scratched the surface of their own country. And that's when their next adventure began: building a tiny house on wheels so they could travel the U.S. without sacrificing the comforts of home."

Hannah and Greg Wilnau sold their house and most possessions in 2018 to travel full-time with only two backpacks each and a remote digital business they built. They spent a year visiting over a dozen European countries, documenting their journey on a YouTube channel called Tiny Living Big Adventure. Minimalist travel habits taught them they needed little and felt freeing. After realizing they had barely explored the U.S., they decided to build a custom tiny house on wheels to travel cross-country while keeping home comforts. The idea originated while living in Hanoi and was motivated by prior minimalist experience and upcoming life changes.
