Hi everyone. Just signed up today to start my research. My hubby and I are both 41, and we are going to be both retired in exactly 1,005 day! We are going to try and move to Cordova, Alaska. We hope to buy at least 5 acres of land, on a higher elevation, with southern light exposure, and build a monolithic dome home. That is the plan at least.
Our long term goal is to establish a completely self-sustaining home for our 3 nieces. Our planet is not healthy, and most people are not paying enough attention. We would like to use both solar and wind energy, collect water, not waste water, grow 75% of fruit and vegetables we eat, and build an very comfortable heated chicken coop with a greenhouse attached for the hens.
I would like to lean on this community to help me get my priorities straight for our future plans. Our budget is comfortable, but I have no clue what is absolutely essential for our future homestead. I would like to place the must-haves at the top of my budget…keeping the luxuries near the bottom of the list. We will continue to have income after we retire, but I much rather not have a mortgage.
Thank you for your time and help. Please call me Bee 🐝
