unconventional living

Unconventional living refers to choosing lifestyles that differ from traditional residential norms, such as living in tiny homes, Yurts, or RVs; cohabiting with others in intentional communities; or embracing eco-friendly or minimalist arrangements. It often involves steps to prioritize sustainability, self-sufficiency, or personal values over conventional expectations like owning a large house or suburban life. While these lifestyles may challenge societal norms, they are legitimate expressions of individual preferences and can foster a greater sense of community, freedom, and environmental consciousness.
