They are really special to live in..

Not just because the climate is SO comfortable year round without even need ANY heating or cooling.

Not just because i have food growing in my kitchen.

Not just because i have free power, hot water and all the modern conveniences i need without having to pay any bills!

Not just because my house actually looks after me rather than the other way around..

BUT also because living in harmony with your environment connects you deeply to the world and life around you.

It also connects you with yourself. These things happen when you start to live off grid. They can't really be explained! You have to take the steps toward it to taste it and to begin to understand.

In terms of strength, Earthships are Way stronger than a conventional house even made of concrete! They are fireproof and earthquake resistant. The lifespan of the main walls of a tyre rammed Earthship have been estimated in the range of 1000's of years.

The list goes on an on actually. I will post about this also! ;-)
