Description
Hello Workawayers, Kristen and I live in a really quiet and secluded spot on the Sunshine Coast. We've built our own house from recycled/demolition materials and nearly finished another house where my son Raphael and his wife Briony and baby Caspian live. We are nearly ready to start another dwelling for my daughter Heidi and her husband Yoodoo and yet to arrive baby. Yes, I know about over population. We try to grow as much food here as possible using organic methods and run the houses on solar electricity.
