It's a very pretty little home she has.

It is great, although on the clip the American hosts really Peed me off, the thought it was hilarious that some one would choose to live the simple life... I take it there are few narrow boats over there :roll:

It actually looks like what Rick and I intend to build on his trailer frame when the current structure is torn off it.

We were planning to use it as a guesthouse for Help Exchangers and WWOOF'ers.

Please keep in mind that there are several U.S. self-sufficienters on here, too
:wave:

There are large and growing communities of mindful people here . . . . that's not to say that most people don't think the stereotypical American super-size way, 'cause a lot of folks do. But then I suppose a lot of people in affluent nations would see 84 square feet as being wahahahay too small. I'd miss a refrigerator, myself.
