The woman retired and started living in this tiny but magical house… This is what it looks like from the inside.

When Sharon ended her career as a pharmacist in May 2014, the “globe traveler at heart” decided to take her life in a completely new direction. She bought a 2015 model T@B M@x S teardrop trailer and embarked on a nomadic lifestyle! She tows the trailer with her 4-door Jeep Wrangler and now lives in it permanently. Sharon calls it her “high teardrop pendant” because it’s different than the classic teardrop pendant; it has standing room and an interior height of 5’9″ at its highest point, perfect for her 5’4″ height. The total weight is 1,670 pounds. Sharon had been thinking about this purchase for a long time. She visited the RTR in January 2012 and considered which vehicle would be best suited for her adventures. The retiree previously had four larger caravans and wasn’t sure whether she wanted to go back to towing or try a small motorhome or van for her next home on wheels. Sharon didn’t want to get rid of her Jeep because she loves driving it. However, Jeeps have limited towing capacity, and they are not really known for their excellent towing capabilities.

Still, Sharon was pleasantly surprised at how well the Jeep towed her teardrop trailer! Even though it slows down on hills, she wouldn’t even know it’s there unless she looks in the rearview mirror. Since it’s a 4-door, it has a large rear area where she can store her other belongings that don’t fit in the trailer. The teardrop trailer is a great vehicle if you want to try out the nomadic lifestyle. It has a toilet and a wet bath that she can use while standing. When it comes to energy, Sharon sources it in two ways. On the one hand, it connects the trailer to electricity, and on the other hand, it uses 135 watt solar panels. Although her kitchen has a two-burner stove, Sharon enjoys cooking outside because the fresh air clears her head. It also prevents your pendant from smelling like food. Your trailer has a large canopy and lots of windows that let in sunlight and air.

On colder nights, Sharon stays warm by turning on the radiator, which releases heat through the ventilation. It also has a propane heater that heats up in about 2 to 3 minutes. For warmer days, she uses the trailer’s air conditioning. Both windows and doors have a screen that keeps insects out. It may come as a surprise to many, but Sharon’s trailer has a small but complete kitchen; it even comes with a refrigerator! Sharon never gets bored in her tiny teardrop trailer, even when she’s just hanging out in her trailer. That’s because she installed an entertainment system between her shower door and the kitchen cabinets. It can play CDs and DVDs, and she can watch her shows on her flat screen TV. As for her sleeping arrangements, Sharon has a couch that folds out into a bed. She just leaves it like that so she doesn’t always have to clean it up.

For this retiree, one of the best things about living in a trailer is that she gets to meet many different people during her travels. She shared dinner with these people and even stayed in touch with some of them. Sharon has lived in many places, but most of the time she didn’t know her neighbors. Now she has friends from all over the country! While she envies those who own larger vans, Sharon knows that the tiny teardrop trailer works best for her and her two Chihuahuas since she likes to set up camp. Check out the video below and take a tour of Sharon’s tiny home on wheels as she pursues a nomadic lifestyle.
