HOME Ownership is no walk in the park, but one self-described ‘granola girl’ is proving that it doesn’t take much to turn a small space into a dreamy forest escape.

TikToker, Amanda Bloomquist, is known for sharing her daring backpacking adventures around the Pacific Northwest and offering camping tips for amateurs.

When it came time for the 23-year-old to choose a permanent place to settle down, she knew she wasn’t cut out for a conventional lifestyle.

The fiery redhead opted to build her own tiny home on wheels, something she said she “designed and built from scratch.”

“I’m doing ok at this adulting thing,” she wrote in the caption of her TikTok video as she showed her followers around the cozy space.

The wood-framed mini-home boasts all the usual amenities that one would find in a regular-sized house or apartment, such as a walk-through kitchen and bright bathroom.

Bloomquist’s followers were quite impressed with her spectacular home innovation, with one describing the tiny home as “stunning” and another calling the young woman the “best kind of quirky.”

While it may appear that the seemingly wild, Washington state-native could live just about anywhere, the young woman actually has some strict standards.

There is one setting she could never imagine wheeling herself into: a farm.

In a separate video, Bloomquist outlined exactly why she wasn’t cut out for farm life.

“So I ended up house-sitting for a whole farm, and this is where I realized that maybe farm life wasn’t for me,” she explained.

Winter had already set in by the time of her farm-sitting stint, which meant that all the outdoor chores had to be completed while bearing the freezing cold temperatures.

“The animals’ water was frozen so that was a whole ordeal every morning,” she complained. “It ended up being a whole lot more work than I thought.”

The ‘granola girl’ estimated that she spent a couple hours each morning feeding the animals, including a herd of goats, horses, and an exuberant great Dane.

To add to the insult, she admitted that not all the creatures were friendly.

“This goat liked to ram me into the side of the shed, which was super fun,” she joked.

Overall, Bloomquist left quite unsatisfied with her experience. She added that the free, fresh eggs were “the only perk,” before concluding that she would be leaving the farm life behind for good.

Thankfully, tiny home living seems to suit her better, and if a neighbor ever decides to built a farm nearby, she can always drive her home away.
