Unable to afford city living, Mr. Tiger turned to carving out the inside of a cave to create his dream home. This is his remarkable subterranean journey.

In a remarkable tale of ingenuity and determination, a man known as Mr. Tiger online recounted his extraordinary journey of transitioning from a city dweller to a modern-day cave dweller.

After struggling to afford an apartment despite working in the city for ten years, Mr. Tiger took on a bold project: he started digging and building his own cave home, creating an underground shelter that goes against the usual ways of living.

He documented his progress through interesting YouTube videos and on the Chinese platform Xigua, showing how he gradually turned a rough, spacious area into a cozy, welcoming home that keeps changing and improving.

Leaving the busy city life that had kept him from owning a home, Mr. Tiger went back to his rural origins in China, motivated to make his dream home a reality. With the help of heavy machinery and a strong determination, he began digging out the base of his underground dwelling.

His hard work paid off with a cool cave-house, an ever-changing haven where he lets his creativity run wild – Mr. Tiger keeps making his living space bigger and even grows his own small farm in the rocky corners.

Finding freedom from financial stress

In his candid online stories, Mr. Tiger talked about ten years of hard work in the city, emphasizing how tiring it was to always chase money. A moment of serious thinking made him take back control of his life and reject financial worries, shown by his strong declaration of freedom from the banking system.
