White string and stakes indicate the planned 8 meter x 8 meter (25ft x 25 ft) footprint of a one-bedroom house overlooking Lago Sauce on 2 hectares (5 acres) of land we have owned for the past ten years. I'm remembering as a child seeing the construction of my paternal grandparents Victor and Doris' retirement home at Lechlade on the river Thames in the UK and I guess we are doing something similar here in Peru.
We have in mind some solar power, organic raised-bed gardens, chickens and fruit trees.
We will proceed 'poco a poco' (little by little) with the construction and right now are at the very beginning figuring where the house will go, levelling the building site and clearing brush.
Also planned is a a rainwater collection tower that will double as an elevated lake viewing platform.
So far there are 4 posts in position next to a huge Ojé tree where the tower will be built Stay tuned for future developments.
