A DIGITAL nomad has shown off her $8,000 tiny home.

Despite only measuring just 14 feet long, the house makes clever use of space and even has a bathtub.

Mariel, 33, describes herself as “nomadic by nature,” and lives full time on a 14-feet camper van.

She has gathered a fanbase of 48,700 followers on TikTok (@scary_elle), and in a recent video, showed off her tiny home.

Mariel lives and works full-time in New England aboard a 2012 K-Z - Sportsmen Classic, which has an MRSP of $8,465.

She has made some big improvements to the camper’s interior to make it more suitable for full-time living.

In the bathroom, there is a toilet, a mini bathtub, and a skylight, which is “key for steam and condensation.” However, there is no sink.

Mariel’s kitchen is decked out with appliances despite the small space. 

She has a two-burner stove, a sink, a microwave, and a fridge, which she says is “tiny but mighty.”

Although the camper doesn’t have a dedicated bedroom, the dinette converts into a queen size bed.

Mariel’s followers had a lot of nice things to say about her compact yet clever home.

“The layout is really good and practical for a camper this small,” wrote one.

Another agreed: “It's really cute and that's a decent bathroom.”

SMALL SPACES

As the tiny home movement gathers momentum, more and more Americans are seeing the benefit of a house on wheels.

One such person is YouTuber David Rule, who built his own tiny home from scratch last year, despite having zero prior construction experience.

His 150 square feet house, built on an old trailer bed, cost under $8,000 to construct.

“I was able to turn my dream into a reality and become a homeowner,” said David. “Even if that home is only about 150 square feet, it still counts.”

Although people like David and Mariel might still be in the minority, the tiny home lifestyle is becoming less and less unusual.
