1.5 YEARS OFF GRID & BUILDING ALONE (NEW project changes EVERYTHING) ep.15

When we moved to our land 1.5 years ago we had many plans, but only one clear goal in mind, to become as self sufficient as possible. @EugeniaDiaz and I have been doing everything alone, and the only way to successfully approach this grand plan was to start somewhere, and go day by day.
First we built a Cabin as a temporary home, in the meantime we created a food garden to eat from, and later we set our off grid solar system up in a temporary location to produce our own clean electricity. And now we are building the workshop, a project that will change everything. The idea with this new project was to create a multifunctional space, to install the solar panels on top, facing South and that could host many different uses, like, a work space covered from the rain, greenhouse for growing food in winter, on site laundry, adding extra storage space or even converting it into a guest house in the future.

The main design goal was that we could take it a part at any given time and install it in a different part of the land. Because for us, budget is a big part of the equation, so having a building that serves several uses and that can be reused elsewhere in a few years is very important.

This week we made this new project a reality.
