About the Sojourner 1 Tiny House

To ‘sojourn’ means to rest, abide, dwell or stay. It’s about having a break from the journey, to be refreshed. There is an element of temporariness to it which we feel is captured by the relocatable nature of our houses. You can stop awhile, & move on in your own time, taking your resting place with you.
