Tiny Houses in the Spotlight

While the concept of tiny houses may evoke imagery straight
out of a fairy tale, these small abodes help empower women around
the world. Here to walk us through this fascinating concept is
Alice Wilson, a 3rd year PhD candidate in urban sociology at the
University of York, in the United Kingdom. Join us as we chat
about the definition, history, and significance of tiny
homes.
