The ESCAPE Traveler

Sometimes tiny living feels like a calm, steady rhythm… and other times it makes us stop and ask big questions. This month’s articles do exactly that. They invite us to take a breath, look at our everyday habits, and notice the small things that shape our happiness.

Content Editor Andrew Odom has spent more than a decade in his tiny home. He knows the lifestyle inside and out. But lately, he’s been wondering if he still has enough space as life changes. It’s a good reminder that tiny living isn’t a one-size-fits-all story. Our needs shift over time, and it’s okay to adjust, rethink, and even remake our spaces so they fit the season we’re in.

Another article takes a close look at something many of us keep within arm’s reach: our phones. Some people call them lifelines, others call them leashes. Either way, most of us are more attached than we like to admit. Could we put them down for a day? An hour? What would that quiet space give back to us?

And finally, we explore the hidden price of comparing our lives to others. When we scroll past someone else’s perfect moment, it’s easy to feel behind. But comparison steals joy fast. Real happiness comes from paying attention to our own path, our own pace, and the life we’re building-tiny home or not.

I hope these stories encourage you to reflect, smile, and maybe make one small shift toward a simpler, more intentional life this week.
