I love my garden and my little house- and sometimes I find myself wondering how it would be to be a nomade- following my sheep on the meadows in Mongolia or on the mountains in the Alps and not care about the news , the tax, the lousy educateion that my kid recieves every day ! My well educated family think I´m a dreamer and a bit crazy...

How else would one ever have the time to cook stock for 48 hours, use a "solar" clothes dryer, raise chooks, and healthy kids, ride a bike or catch a bus instead of rushing around in a metal box. Who needs to make extra time to meditate when you can do it whilst slowly cooking porridge for an hour! Now all we need is a few more families on the block thinking the same way to have sane conversation with and our world would be perfect. (and maybe some very small dairy animals for a raw milk supply!) Hear, hear Karen, I’m doing the same here in Henley Beach, South Australia.

It's a process with the kids -schooling - encouraging good food, etc - not as perfect as it sounds but the process continues - you never learn enough! Hi Karen,
