“I absolutely love living in a tiny house,” Williamson says. “It is easier to keep clean, and I love the charm of having what sometimes feels like an adult-sized ‘playhouse’ all to myself.”

Multimedia journalist WHITNEY WORLEY visited Williamson on March 30 to see how she was enjoying life in such a small space.
