Hi great people,
I'm bored of beeing a slave of the system and paying rent in a city. It is ugly, no light, and smells bad

I'm in Belgium. Ok we have great waffles and beer at least LOL
I'm exploring some places to buy a piece of land. I was looking on Greek Islands.
Focusing first (stupidly maybe because of affordability) on agricultural land to put a Tiny. But problem is that those islands have a lot of wind, salty air,.. have to paint their houses for example every year (maybe they use the cheap chemical non-natural option..??)
So I thought that my tiny would suffer in the winter and that maybe (??) I will have to do like everybody there, build a strong stuff and buy a buildable land for that. Shit I'll have to pay more LOL
To Wise Minds here:
- Do you know any good option to put something there on agricultural land ?
- If buildable land becomes mandatory, what would be another way of building on those islands in order to be more sustainable, more efficient, ... ?? Any good combo in order to not use the bricks-mortar-usual-way to do ? I don't think they have clay there. Few wood because very dry. Of course they import building material but at least they have rocks ... but don't know if the cheapest.
What kind of building approach would you recommend ? Would rounded earthbags and cob be ok ? Rocks and lime/plaster with little integrated greenhouse like earthship, ... ? Its is very hot in summer and strong winds and colder in winter. But still lots of light !
Thanks a lot
Yvan
