Le Nouveau TrailerTrash


Wow, who knew that even trailertrash is rethinkable. I actually wouldn't mind to be called trailertrash living in this one. Can it be that the walls are even made out of straw bales?

The only thing that comes to my mind is... can this still be called a trailer? As far as I noticed there's only about 60% of the subfloor that are from the original trailer. It definitely inspires me though.

Check it out and you'll wanna live in one of those.

fast food vs. slow home


I just found a webpage that I need to report about. More and more people understand the importance of eating properly, now it's time to understand how it is to "house properly".

When we (my wife Carolyn and I) purchased our house in November it was very important to us that it was not a cookie cutter house. So we got a beautiful old house and renovated it to our liking with environmentally methods and materials. You should do the same, it feels so good to live in environment that is anti fast food.

Here are ten steps to creating your own slow home.

I will also post in the future, what I did to our house to make it a slow home.
