  • #14 "Building Dreams with Mud: From City Life back to simplicity with Tiny Farm Lab

    In this episode, we welcome the brothers behind ''Tiny Farm Lab’s Vision" two inspiring brothers who traded the bustling streets of New Delhi for a quiet rural life in the hills near Rishikesh, North India. 

    Raghav and Ansh both with backgrounds in architecture—one having worked in the corporate world, the other as a freelance artist—their combined expertise and love for nature gave rise to their project, Tiny Farm Lab. A few years back they embarked on a journey to reconnect with nature, build their own mud homes, and create a self-sustaining lifestyle.

    They currently run a unique BnB experience, inviting guests to stay in eco-friendly mud houses and hosting volunteers interested in sustainable building practices. We dive into their story, exploring what inspired them to leave city life behind, the challenges of rural living, and the rewards of a close-to-nature lifestyle. Whether you're curious about eco-construction, dreaming of a simpler way of life or simply love listening to intriguing and inspiring stories, this episode will be a good listen for you.
