I love the idea of living completely off-grid, and self-sufficiently in a house like this.

It's great that this is a [relatively] easy option, and that you can buy something like this "off the shelf" to live that kind of life. Of course you have to learn HOW to grow your food, etc., but this looks like a way easier option to how you had to go about living self sufficiently in the past.

I'm sure there's a lot of trial-and-error, and experimentation involved in going off-grid and self-sufficient. But it seems like buying one of these would be a short-cut.

Having said all that, I don't know that I'd be passionate, and determined enough to live self-sufficiently forever. And buying a house like this is a pretty big step, and hard to go back on if you have second thoughts.

Looks really interesting...thanks for the hunt.
