Affordable Desert Living
США
Добавлен 19 окт 2020
With so many of us today unable to afford a home of our own I began a journey that I would never have thought possible. The dream of a lifetime come true. Owning an off grid home in one of the most beautiful places in the country, South East Arizona. With modest financial resources this is my journey to create a place of my own where I can live and thrive. I wanted to share my journey with others in case my adventures in the beautiful Arizona desert help and inspire others to find their own freedom.
