They met in Bali, fell in love, and built 2 tiny houses among the rice fields for $30,000
Briefly

Olivia Purba and Dirkjan Tijs traded their spacious three-bedroom villa in Canggu for tiny living in Ubud, Bali, to pursue a simpler and more sustainable lifestyle. After realizing their large home was too spacious for just the two of them, they decided to build two tiny houses for $30,000. Ubud offered a less crowded and serene environment, allowing the couple to focus on their private life while connected to nature. With backgrounds in sustainability and technology, they seek to embody minimalism while remaining immersed in the beauty of Bali.
"We thought that maybe our friends or family could come over. But over time, we realized that we wanted more privacy. Without kids, it didn't make sense for us to live in such a big house."
"We thought, 'Let's go to Ubud because it's less crowded than Canggu and Pererenan, and build something that's simple, sustainable, and just enough for the two of us.'"
