30 years in construction building every type of structure. Both conventional and alternative.  Holding 3 degrees, permaculture design certificate, aquaponics, bio-ponics designer. Now seeking a life time of personal growth. Living Free From The Grind.

Some years ago I got involved in permaculture. It is a agraculture design science that can build a permanent culture or society.  In that I saw the beauty of a life without the rush of our current society.  This got me to start thinking about applying an intentional design process to the way I live.

Over the course of many years of building and testing every idea under the sun. I was able to create a lifestyle that lets me work on things I love 40 hours or so per month in various construction trades. Yes I said month.  I am able to travel the world and stay out of the country for 3 months at a time. I have used my abundant time to follow a path of self growth. Eventually, I grew enough to follow my passion for the money I need.

I have tried every alternative building type: Earth ship, rammed earth, adobe, cob, straw bale, light clay straw, truss wall, and conventional.  AirCrete is the single best way I have found to quickly build a beautiful elegant artful home.  It requires a hand full of tools, cement, water, power, and as little as 1 person. All of which can be thrown in a truck or delivered anywhere. For $38+ per square foot, with appliances, a single person can have a starter home shell up in 14+ days.

I believe everyone, at any income level, is entitled to have a home and live well. Thriving, not surviving. Infact, a highly committed and self disciplined person making minimum wage can have a tiny starter home on their own lot in as little as 1 year.  Setting you free from rent and mortgage for the rest of your life. What would you do with the extra money from rent or mortgage if it was in your hand to spend right now? Buy nice things? Save up and travel? Work less? Start a business?  You see its this very thing I am passionate about.  Building your own home gives you the step one from which you can move your life in the direction of your heat! Its the foundation.
