Living Large with Little Footprints
Just another Blogtown NZ weblog

This chap in England is systematically turning his suburban home into an ECo-home. He has a reed bed for recycling grey water, solar water heating and power generation, permaculture gardens and so much more, an evenings surfing just on one site.
I do wonder though how well his neighbours cope with his singular vision? I hope they can share his views.

It seems that we are most definately not alone! This morning I found another blog all about living large in small spaces.
My name is Kent Griswold and I am developing this blog because of my love of small spaces. I have always dreamed of having a cabin and have done research over the years. Tiny houses have also become an interest to me in the last couple of years.
The goal of the tiny house blog is to discover the different options available for a person looking to down size into a tiny house or cabin. I will be looking at different type of construction, from logs, to yurts to modern and the unusual. I will also do book reviews, look at alternate energy for heat and electricity.
I want to encourage feedback and ideas to make this an informative blog. Stories of people who are living this dream. Pictures of tiny houses and cabins, etc.
My goal is to publish weekly and more if possible. Thank you for sharing in this experience with me.
Living in a house smaller than some people’s walk-in closets may not be for everyone, but those who are able to do so reap many benefits for themselves and for the world around them. Here are some tips for choosing the best type of small house for you and how to simplify your life so living in a small house is enjoyable and not confining
