I am an Australian stay at home mother, with 2 young boys, trying to go against the norm of working and aquiring more stuff. I look forward to reading your wealth of information and using it my own life. We are desperate to get out of the city and get a small plot of land for our family and reconnect with the simple natural way of living.
