Now unemployed I am so glad that I live this life of simplicity. I don't pay bills (except rates) and I grow much of my own food. Most of all I love my little home, particularly in a storm. I am forever tinkering with it, improving this or that and trying to make it as livable as possible. My only regret is that I did not put more power points around the building, both 12V and 240V before doing the plastering.

I can't believe you built it yourself! Your philosophy is very sound: why stress over paying for something you don't want when you have so beautifully demonstrated that you can live comfortably - no, zestfully - with all your treasures and conveniences at such a low cost? I would love to see more pictures if you are able. You have inspired me to move in the same direction. This has got to be the best thing I have ever seen. I can’t believe you built it yourself!

Not many people can do much with that little amount of square feet. I've been wanting to see this house finished for some time. I hope to have something as good as this. Good job! Where I live you need a permit for any size building unless if it is mobile. Awesome house, it’s rather lovely and I’m glad to see you are enjoying it.
