Another day, another ravishing, eco-friendly, or otherwise fabulous tiny house hits the Internet, and you're left to wonder: Can I really live in something like this? Without readily-available resources to research and build a micro home or just the sheer willpower to leave behind everything you thought you knew about a "home," the burgeoning tiny house movement is a tough trend to get in on. But this tricky place between tiny dreamin' and actual tiny livin' is where Getaway, a new startup coming out of Harvard University, wants to wedge into. And this is what it wants to do: give urban dwellers a chance to escape the big city frenzy via a well-designed tiny house set on lovely rural land, where they can "test drive" the micro living experience, or at the very least, disconnect, recharge, and start that book they've been meaning to read.
