Biokabin: our modular eco-home to snap & build in backyard, Nature
People have asked us over the years, "if you were to build a simple home, what would it look like?" So we decided to build one. Enter Biokabin, a modular eco-home made of wood. At first we didn't know everything about it, but we were sure that house needed to belong to the place, to be healthy and to age well. But the real challenge was: could we build it ourselves without fancy tools, and to create a design that could work for other people as well? Over the past couple years, with the help of architect and carpenter friends, we designed and built a modular home that can be as small as 100 square feet (one module) to as large as you'd like by simply adding modules. The components are cut in a factory and can be assembled with just a few people, and a wrench and a ladder (no need for a crane). Living in small apartments and seeing very compact dwellings we also realized that it's not the layout, but the 3D-space that matters, so we wanted to design something high to allow for two-story setups. Style and quality were important, so we used our collective experience of Scandinavian, Mediterranean, and California design. Soon we will be building the first three-module Biokabin Living as an ADU in our California backyard, but we would love to see it in other parts of California or Southern Europe (as a start). We can only produce ten the first year because we want to be able to focus on each one.

The 10 Greatest Dog Breeds For Your Lifestyle
🔥 Check out more videos: @ViralBe Nowadays, it is very difficult to find a good friend. A friend whom you can trust, feel safe with, and who will be loyal to you in any situation or phase of life you are going through. This might not be surprising, as life is a struggle for survival, and people have been shaped over thousands of years to survive in any event or situation. However, fortunately for us, we have a guaranteed friend, and that is the dog. Ever since humans and wolves somehow found peace in the struggle for food, they became our right hand. Since then, they have not only aided in our development but have remained our most loyal friends, surpassing even humans themselves. An old Albanian saying goes, "A good friend is worth more than a sack of gold." And I say that having a dog as a friend is worth more than two sacks of gold. The purpose of this video is not to push you to buy or adopt a dog. But if you are a dog lover and want to find your ideal friend, not just for their loyalty, as all breeds are loyal, but to match your lifestyle, whether you already have one or want to create one. So, for this episode, I have listed 10 breeds with different characteristics that have the greatest potential to fit well with various lifestyles.

Couple Living in a Yurt as a Simple & Affordable Tiny House Alternative
Leah and Joe are an adventurous couple who moved from a log cabin into a skoolie, and then into a yurt! They are now living full-time in a tiny yurt with their two black cats in Ontario, Canada. The yurt is 20' in diameter and 314 square feet on the interior, the round structure is made of white pine lattice walls and roof rafters, and it is covered with wool felt insulation, a vapour barrier, and a canvas cover on the exterior. You can follow and find out more about Leah and Joe's yurt life adventures, and find out about the yurt rentals they're planning to set up on their land on Facebook and Instagram here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61555845030001 https://www.instagram.com/mindful_makwa Joe and Leah's yurt is a 20' Mongolian Yurt (or super ger). These beautiful yurts are made in Mongolia and are distributed by Groovy Yurts. You can check them out here: https://www.groovyyurts.com/ At the time of filming, Leah and Joe had only been living in the yurt for 5 months, but they had already built a massive deck, set up their yurt as a cozy home, built an outhouse, brought in an electrical panel, built a woodshed and outdoor shower, and had a well drilled. Their future plans include adding a septic system, and building a comfort station with an indoor shower and toilet, and they're also looking into setting up a small yurt resort so that folks can visit the First Nation reserve where they live, and experience living and sleeping in a yurt.
