I built my tiny house at 19 years old,

and it's truly such a luxury,

and it's a lot better than renting.

There was this empty space of forest where my house was going to be,

and then within a couple days there was like a massive structure.

Very quickly I got to see the house come alive.

My kitchen is awesome because it's pink.

When am I ever going to have a better opportunity to have a pink kitchen than right now?

My mom built this piece of furniture,

which is just so insane.

She's like my DIY queen.

Welcome to my loft.

It is kind of a tight squeeze, but it's worth it.

It's my first home, and it's a place that brings me a lot of comfort and peace.

It's everything I dreamed of.

Hi, I'm Annie, and this is my tiny house.

when i was 19 years old i actually moved away from home

and i tried renting for a little bit and i realized very quickly

that it just didn't feel permanent enough

and it was a lot of money just like leaving me

and it didn't really feel like it was investing toward my

future i realized i really just need like a permanent place

that i can live right now i just need a small little space

and so my parents were like come and build a tiny house on our property and come live with us.

Within a couple months, we built my house that I'm living in now and I don't pay rent.

I can steal my parents' milk and eggs whenever I want

and it's truly such a luxury and it's a lot better than renting.

Before we decided to build a tiny house,

we were just going to buy one.

A lot of the tiny houses that we were touring were a lot of money and they were really small.

That's when it occurred to us we should just build our own

because we can ensure that the quality is like a hundred percent.

We bought the plans for the house on Etsy.

We basically found a little 300 square foot house that had a little loft and a kitchen and a living room,

dining room, all the things that I knew I needed.

And then we kind of modified it a little bit,

but the actual structure itself was up within like a couple of days.

It was so cool because there was this empty space of forest where my house was going to be.

And then within a couple of days,

there was like a massive structure

and very quickly I got to see the house come alive which was just like so exciting.

So my tiny house was $45,000 to build which comparative to the like $60,000 to $80,000

houses that we were gonna buy that felt like a steal especially

because it's such good quality and it truly is gonna last forever.

We did keep a spreadsheet of all of the costs for the house including all the extra stuff like electric,

plumbing, and then of course furnishing it.

We kind of make do where you can.

You save where you can,

but then also you've got to splurge where you can.

So I've now been living in the house for a year and a half.

Even though it's like 100 feet from my parents,

there is an added level of like newfound independence.

There are just little adult things that I'm having to take care of that aren't as glamorous and as fun,

but I really do love just taking care of my own house.

So I think I've learned just like how great it is to cultivate like my own space.

I truly just love this house.

So this is my tiny house.

This is what it looks like.

For the longest time, my house was just plain white.

And recently we redid the windows to be blue and we added these fun flowers.

So everything is my colorful dream and I just love I'll take you to the back over here.

If you go up the steps,

this is my back porch.

When we built this tiny house,

the most important thing to me was having a back porch because I just love to have my mornings outside.

And so this is just like my dream come true.

I love it so much.

When we built the tiny house,

I also really wanted double doors

because I just love the experience of opening up a slide door

and there's all this natural light coming through

and then I step out onto the porch and it's just like so magical and that's exactly what we did.

Okay, we're going to make our way inside.

This is my beautiful blue door.

This is the front of my tiny house.

This is my little doorway.

It's honestly really spacious, which I really appreciate.

I have a rack for all of my shoes.

It doesn't fit all of my shoes,

but it's typically just my daily shoes.

And this makes it really easy just to grab the things that I need very quickly.

I also have a hook here to hang up all of my bags.

Again, makes it very convenient.

I just grab my bags and go.

Then right in the entrance, there is my bathroom.

When we were first building the bathroom,

I was definitely concerned that it was going to be a little bit too tight,

but it's honestly not bad, especially after you adjust.

It's really not that bad.

My shower is pretty small.

This is how much space there is.

It's not a lot.

I've never really been the kind of person though,

who like really looked forward to like a luxury shower at the end of the day.

So it's honestly not a big deal.

I have my little toilet and then this is my counter space.

I have a lot of counter space,

which I really appreciate getting ready in the morning is not really an issue.

My sink is also really small,

100

which helps with the counter space.

101

The only thing that I dislike about this sink is it's really loud.

102

Like it's extremely loud.

103

If you hit something on the sink,

104

it kind of sounds like a gong.

105

I'm like, oh my gosh, it's kind of intense.

106

But I also have a lot of storage with my mirror.

107

I have this little cabinet here that I can store a lot of things.

108

Over here is the kitchen.

109

My kitchen is awesome because it's pink.

110

And I asked myself, I was like,

111

when am I ever going to have a better opportunity to have a pink kitchen than right now?

112

So I've had these pink kitchen cabinets for a couple months now,

113

and I wouldn't go back to plain old white ever again.

114

I love it.

115

I love color.

116

I have some floating shelves.

117

This is where keep all of my dishes and my cups.

118

There's a really decent amount of space and I honestly don't use too much so I've never had a problem.

119

These floating shelves are super nice and sturdy.

120

I have a lot of cabinet space as well.

121

These cabinets are from Ikea.

122

We built the whole thing without a top.

123

My mom added this countertop in herself and I really like

124

that it's like yes we have Ikea drawers but then we have like actual wood countertops.

125

It helps it just feel really nice, really finished.

126

We also raised the whole kitchen up about an inch

127

because I'm like 5'8 and I really didn't want to be like uncomfortably bent over when I was using the countertops.

128

So it's like a customizable height for me,

129

which is just like so, so great.

130

In this cabinet right here,

131

I have my air fryer oven slash microwave.

132

I never really felt like I was missing out not having a stove

133

because this thing just does so much and I just love it.

134

I have my sink right here and I have this beautiful window above my sink.

135

I love how much greenery I can see from my sink,

136

especially on sunny days.

137

The sun comes through and it's so, so beautiful.

138

The curtains that we use for my window, we actually sewed ourselves.

139

I really wanted this specific pattern and I couldn't find it anywhere.

140

And so we were like,

141

we're just going to make our own.

142

A lot of this house is very like a DIY.

143

That's mainly because of my mom.

144

She's like my DIY queen and I am the Pinterest board queen.

145

So I'll be like, I found this on Pinterest.

146

Can you make it?

147

And she'll be like, yes.

148

So I love that.

149

She's so awesome.

150

This is where I keep a lot of my food.

151

I don't know how I've managed to keep my pantry down to just three cabinets,

152

but I have.

153

It's kind of crazy.

154

It's not super organized, but like this is kind of what it looks like.

155

Lots of boxes, lots of food like any other pantry.

156

Then I have a little mini fridge here.

157

My only problem with the fridge is that it doesn't have a freezer.

158

I don't really use that many things that require a freezer,

159

so it's not that big of a deal.

160

On this side of my kitchen,

161

I have this amazing coffee bar.

162

This is actually the latest addition to my tiny house.

163

My mom built this piece of furniture,

164

which is just so insane.

165

She's like the most crafty woman I've ever met.

166

She built this coffee bar for me because I actually used to be a barista and I missed the experience so much.

167

I miss like actually making your coffee in the morning rather than just clicking a couple buttons.

168

So we recreated that experience at home.

169

Down here I have storage for extra glasses and mugs and then I have more syrup and more coffee beans.

170

I'll probably fill this up more as time goes on but right now it's pretty minimal.

171

Then over here I just gotta say I love how tall the ceilings are.

172

we added this window this is unique from the plans

173

that we bought we just knew like with this much open

174

space we've got to have an extra window we've got to

175

and I'm so glad we did that because it makes the natural lighting just

176

so much better it's already a little bit dark in the house sometimes

177

because I'm surrounded by trees and so without that window I think it'd be really dark in here.

178

So my dining area is so, so nice.

179

I have this beautiful, amazing wood table.

180

My mom refurnished this a little bit.

181

It used to be like a heavy, dark orange.

182

And now it's like this light birch wood,

183

which is, it's just so pretty.

184

Some amazing farmhouse chairs.

185

I got these on Facebook Marketplace for $20 for all three of them together,

186

which was like the steel of the century because they're so awesome.

187

Then over here is the little living room area.

188

This is where I get to do all of my editing.

189

I do a lot of my work here.

190

I read here.

191

It's just so cozy and so comfy.

192

I have this singular person chair.

193

This is one of my favorite chairs ever.

194

It's like the perfect mix of comfy, but also like firm.

195

So I don't feel like I'm just falling into the chair,

196

if that makes sense.

197

You know, when something's too comfortable and you feel like you're just going to sit there and rot all day.

198

This is like a good productivity chair.

199

So I started posting on YouTube when I was nine years old and now I'm 20.

200

So that is like a big chunk of my life that I've been a YouTuber.

201

Being on social media has helped me have so much freedom financially and just in my lifestyle.

202

Growing up, I always remodeled my bedroom like every single season.

203

So like basically four to five times a year,

204

I was completely redoing my entire bedroom and changing the style.

205

And so when I built my tiny house at 19 years old,

206

it felt like just kind of a natural progression of how I've always lived my life,

207

which is like with a lot of change and a of color

208

and a lot of house design it's been really fun documenting

209

the experience of like building my tiny house living in my tiny house

210

and then remodeling my tiny house whenever i feel like it on my youtube channel

211

because it's just so similar to who i've always been

212

and what i've always done

213

so then down here i have another little piece of storage this has a lot of clothing in it sweaters

214

and ub boots and comfy socks

215

and stuff stored in here i just don't want them taking up of space in my closet

216

while it's not the right season.

217

Also in my living room, I have my closet.

218

It is really sturdy, but it's not connected to the house.

219

So like if I want to switch it out or redesign it at any point in my life,

220

I can, but it feels pretty permanent.

221

This is also for more seasonal stuff.

222

It doesn't really open all the way because of the couch,

223

but I have a lot of extra jackets and sweaters.

224

I would say out of 10,

225

it's like a seven organization wise.

226

Typically it's messier.

227

So I had to organize because I knew you guys were coming.

228

I have these awesome pullout drawers.

229

They have so much space,

230

like truly so much space.

231

I'm also really good about like when I know that I'm done wearing a piece of clothing,

232

I'm like, I do not wear it anymore.

233

I pretty much move it,

234

put it in storage or put it somewhere else.

235

So it doesn't get too cluttered here.

236

Okay.

237

This is the ladder that goes up to my loft.

238

I love having a loft bed.

239

It's so cozy it's so awesome i think everyone should do it truly it's

240

so awesome the ladder itself is

241

so pretty a lot of people are scared to go up the ladder at first

242

but once you get in the hang of it like i forget

243

that i'm going up and down a ladder every day it's like not a big deal

244

welcome to my loft it's

245

so cozy up here i like the color scheme a lot it's honestly kind of a fall vibe

246

which i feel like is pretty different from the rest of the house

247

but i feel like for sleeping this is

248

so cozy it is kind of a tight squeeze especially

249

when i'm trying to switch out my sheets

250

or like clean my bedding it's kind of a workout

251

and i'll make vlogs about it and like the whole time i'm just like huffing

252

and puffing and i'm like this is so much work

253

but it's worth it because waking up here you just feel like you're

254

so protected and oh my gosh don't even get me started on

255

when it rains it's

256

so cozy i have these big windows here this is what

257

i was like the most excited for is to wake up and just see the outdoors.

258

It's everything I dreamed of.

259

So then over here next to my bed, this is comfy.

260

I have a little organizer here.

261

I can keep some books.

262

I have this lamp that's very cozy.

263

I have a room spray because I'm extra and I like to put room spray up here.

264

I also have this little board.

265

This is where I write down all of my prayers

266

and just kind of the things that I'm hoping for and thinking about.

267

And it's really fun because I'm a very visual person and I like seeing everything.

268

And a lot of times when I go to look at it,

269

I realize that something's kind of been answered or something's been fixed.

270

And so I'll take it off the board because I don't need to keep praying for it because it already happened.

271

And it's just nice to have this visual representation of like how my life is moving and how it's going.

272

But it's very, very, very cozy.

273

And anyone that I've had come sleep over with me, they love it.

274

If I was talking to my even younger self,

275

I would probably say build a tiny house right now.

276

Because the sooner that you do it, the better.

277

It's such like a creative adventure.

278

I would also say don't be limited by your thinking.

279

Like if buying a tiny house is going to be too expensive,

280

then you can just build one.

281

Or if finding the right builder is too hard, just keep on researching.

282

Like you'll find all of the things you need to make your dream come alive.

283

To me, my tiny house is just comforting.

284

Like after a long day when I've been gone,

285

I come home and it smells like me and it's exactly what I want.

286

When I go out in the world,

287

I have like more of a calm and a peace in me.

288

It's my first home and it's a place

289

that brings me a lot of comfort and peace and I just love it here.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
