    Kerterre is the really good knowledge for the people who have dream to build an innovative house without too much construction and no harm to the nature . Its a great knowledge to learn even for my self when i was learning it but I paid 600€ for this knowledge . But with us this can be free in exchange . Except this we cook together and my husband is Indian and he is really good cook.
