I’m so cheap I live in a garage with just 1 window — here’s how much I pay for rent

She’s parked herself up.

A TikTok user has gone viral on the app after revealing she lives in a converted four-car garage — and viewers are wowed by the cozy, converted digs.

Leah Alexandra, 27, clocked up 1.2 million views with a 3-minute video in which she gave a tour of the “garage apartment,” which is complete with a kitchen, bathroom and separate bedroom.

“It’s the perfect size for me, I don’t need any bigger,” the singleton said as she scanned her camera around the accommodation.

Alexandra didn’t disclose how she came to call the converted garage home, but the budget-conscious content creator says she is “very cheap with how she goes about things.”

“I like doing things affordable,” the thrifty TikTokker declared, “Because then I save money.”

Alexandra — who lives in Southern California — said she pays $1,300 for the converted garage, inclusive of all utilities and Wifi.

“Before anyone says your rent is not cheap, I live in SoCal,” she stated. “This is cheap.”
