Recent Ramblings…

A New Chapter…

I started this blog five years ago to record our journey towards an off-grid lifestyle… It’s taken various detours along the way but hopefully provided an interesting read to our handful of followers… So although I haven’t written anything for a while, this year has seen us take…

Emerge

Spring is my favourite time of year. It brings with it an awakening and unfurling from the darkness of winter… as new shoots of life start to break the surface… both in the mind and in the world around us…

Changing Seasons
