What is this Site?

Thank you so much for stopping by! My name is Jill Kanto. I built my DIY tiny house in 2015 and have been living tiny since!

This website is my passion project to help tiny house dwellers, dreamers and community builders!

Speaking Opportunities

Now that the pandemic is easing, I’d love to help your festival.
