It's hard to believe it's been almost 5 years of creating these videos. If you've been here since the beginning, I'm sure you've seen how much we've changed and grown in that time...part of that growth has been internal work that is often difficult to see. As we set new expectations for what our channel looks like going forward, it will allow us to show up in a more impactful and thoughtful way not just in our own lives but in the videos that we share with you. Also, if you’re located in Nova Scotia it’s totally worth checking out EfficiencyNS. We’re really excited to get this report back and see how we can make the cabin more efficient! https://www.EfficiencyNS.ca
If you've missed the last few episodes, we decided to buy a cabin, move into it and get comfortable for the winter. It has been a LONG 4 years of self building our home and it's time we start living again. Now that it's been a few weeks, this cozy cottage is exactly what our souls needed!
How did we end up here? It all began with a year of full-time travel, embracing the van life until the world shifted, and we had to adjust accordingly. With travel no longer an option but determined to stay productive, we transformed our compact mobile abode into a self-sufficient off-grid dwelling that fulfilled all our needs. Recognizing the uncertainty of the current tiny home, we quickly realized a permanent residence was the most sensible choice. Over the past three years, we have meticulously overseen every aspect of the project ourselves, planning the construction while simultaneously setting up the off-grid property to sustain our future food requirements. For the last two years we've lived in a Geodesic Dome, which has allowed us to be comfortable (expect for the winter months), while we realize our shipping container home dream. However, this will mark our 4th winter with stable electricity, running water, or a flushing toilet and time has come to come up with a new plan going forward.
