The couple say they now plan to build more of the homes and donate some of their profits to housing for the homeless.

Duff, 35, said: ‘We were living in Seattle and we grew tired of city life. I am an architect and always wanted to design and build my own home.

‘After we built it we went travelling around America. This is just the prototype. We hope to now build more.

‘The home has all the utilities that you would need and even has a full sized tub. The home looks likely to set you back around $110,000.

Writing on their website social worker Ashley, 32, said: ‘We lived the typical 8-5 lifestyle in a busy city which ultimately drained us of energy.

‘It left us questioning how we can live a more simplified existence and a higher quality of life.

‘We both have the traveling bug journeying and living in the Pacific Northwest.

‘After driving From Seattle to Alaska and back summer of 2016 we knew we couldn’t go back to our everyday life styles any longer.

‘Duff’s dream since college has been to build modular, affordable, homes on wheels for the common person.

‘My dream has been to help the poorest people in our society to live with dignity and hope.

‘So together we created Modern Wagon to offer an alternative lifestyle for people like us to choose a higher quality of life.’

The couple were traveling for three months from June this year.
