When asked how in the hell a family of four could go from a dream home filled with belongings to a 215-square-foot trailer, Tiffany says they definitely spent more time cleaning and getting rid of all their extra stuff than renovating the entire Airstream, to put it into perspective. So when it comes to organization and storing all of the necessities that made the cut to be brought on the road initially, Tiffany says that there's actually a constant cycle of purging that ensures everything — from the kids' toys to everyone's clothes — is neat and tidy.
With all of our things, we try to keep it minimal but practical.
"Simplify, simplify, simplify. We did a huge purge of our stuff before moving into the Airstream, and periodically, we've gone through our things to see what we aren't using," she said. "This especially applies to toys and kids' clothes; whatever we're not using is moved out of the toy box and clothing drawer. Sometimes we keep them elsewhere if we think they'll be useful later, and sometimes we move these things on to someone else, but either way, it helps us keep things from piling up. With all of our things, we try to keep it minimal but practical."
Check out the way the family is keeping it simple in the throes of their new mobile lifestyle ahead.
