I broke off my engagement & gave him the house – now I’m staying in my mum’s tiny shed but I’m happier than ever
A YOUNG woman has shared how she transformed her life and her home after leaving an unhappy relationship.
Serina Katherine took to social media to share how she went from living in a house to moving into her mum’s tiny shed with no bathroom.
Sharing pictures of her new home, she revealed that she broke off her engagement and gave her ex the house they bought together to get a fresh start.
The woman wrote: “I broke off my engagement, let them have the home we bought this year, and with the rental market being absolutely insane I’ve had to take an unconventional route to living.”
” My mum has been using this 10x20ft “tiny house” as an office/storage space on her property until her official office space is finished. It sits on 20+acres of trails and a pond.”
In the pictures the blue shed had a small wooden patio to relax on and inside it was a blank canvas minus a table and chairs and a sink.
Now, Serina was planning to make it her own little home to save cash on rent.
She continued: “Long story short, I will be moving in soon, and need ideas for maximising space while still making this feel like home.”
Currently, there was no bathroom in the shed but she and her mum were planning to get one built alongside a small kitchen area.
Serina went on to ask those in the group for any ideas on space saving furniture and storage ideas.
While many would see the the change of lifestyle as a negative, Serina revealed she was happier than ever.
“It felt nearly impossible for so long but I’m so much better off,” she commented under the post.
The post shared to the Facebook group, Small Space Living, has since gone viral with over 1.9k likes and 430 comments.
People were quick to support the young woman and in awe of her new home.
One person wrote: “Will be such a nice sanctuary.”
Another commented: “Lucky you!”
“Such beautiful surroundings I’m sure you will make it your own. Lots of luck in the future,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “Wow! That’s awesome!”
“Super cute,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “Seems like heaven.”
