This is cool.
a composting toilet in a tiny house is a bad idea...
That will be one smelly and hot house in the summer
Many composting toilets are far different than your typical "outhouse".
This is fascinating, I don't think I could live in such a small space but I hope she is successful at it, maybe she will start a blog about her experiences living in such a small space, I would love to hear more.
I really enjoyed that article -- thanks for posting it. I admire Elizabeth and feel sure she'll overcome the problems she has left. I'd have loved this when I was in grad school.
