Teacher Seeks a Tiny Upgrade is the 16th episode in season 2 of Tiny House Hunters. In this episode, we follow a young couple, Leah and Adam, who are both teachers looking to downsize to a tiny home. They are tired of the daily grind, and want to simplify their lives by living in a small space. They are also hoping to save money on their housing expenses so they can travel more.
Leah and Adam have a budget of $50,000 for their tiny home, and hope to find something that is at least 200 square feet. They have a long list of must-haves, including a full kitchen, a separate bedroom, and plenty of storage space for all of their teaching materials. They also want a home that is energy-efficient and eco-friendly.
Their first stop is a tiny home built on a trailer, located in a rural area. It has a rustic feel with wooden walls and a full kitchen, though the lack of a separate bedroom is a drawback. The bed is located in the main living space, and there is little privacy. However, the home has some nice touches, such as a clawfoot bathtub and a fold-down dining table.
Next, the couple checks out a tiny home located in an urban area. This home has a modern look with sleek white walls and a lofted bedroom. The kitchen is compact but has everything they need, and there is plenty of storage space throughout the home. However, the price tag is higher than they hoped at $65,000, and the location is less desirable due to the noise from nearby traffic.
Their final stop is a tiny home located in a more remote area. This home is unique in that it is built into the side of a hill, which allows for stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The home also features a full kitchen, a separate bedroom, and plenty of storage space. However, the remote location is a drawback for Leah and Adam, as they worry about being too far away from civilization.
After visiting all three homes, Leah and Adam must decide which one best fits their needs and budget. They discuss the pros and cons of each home and ultimately make a decision that will change their lives forever.
Overall, Teacher Seeks a Tiny Upgrade is a heartwarming episode that showcases the benefits of downsizing and living simply. Leah and Adam's journey is relatable to anyone who has dreamed of simplifying their lives, and the homes they visit are unique and inspiring. This episode is a must-watch for anyone who loves tiny homes or is interested in the tiny house movement.
