Description
We are just a small family in the beautiful spice island.
I sold my big house to be able to build a new smaller house, I am trying to become more self sufficient, using solar and rain water to sustain myself.
I am looking to get my new garden ready, have some vegetables and fruits, build a fence and possibly build a Slovenian bee house for my bees, my first project is building a dome for my work shed and then of course my own house.
Our family is just my son (17 years) and I (52 years) and a pack of 4 Boston terrier’s
