Pictures of the new place

Well, the contract was signed today so now I feel ok about posting some pictures of my new place. I'm sure you can see why I fell in love with it. It's a two bedroom house that's not connected to the grid and it's on 22 acres of land which is mostly forest. The area around the house has been cleared and there are fruit trees planted and vegetable gardens laid out. There are also four dams and a creek.

The beginning of my new life

I have seen my future home and just thinking about it makes me smile. That's how I know I'm making the right decision. This is the first step along the new path I want to take. I am making a move to a more self-sufficient lifestyle and the biggest thing so far has been to find the right place. I have been looking on and off and dreaming about the possibility of doing this for over 10 years now. I realise this is not a very big post for my first ever post but in reality the whole concept is so huge to me that it's best if I just talk about it bit by bit.
