My dream home is in many counties and has many styles so I want them all.
We spoke this weekend with some good friends of ours about possibly going in on buying some land together on Vancouver Island. If we all split it, we could buy enough land to build 2 houses and have horses and dogs and more!
Looks like it is still affordable to live over there, and the land value is always going up and up and up. If we do this soon we could get something really great! Neat! :)
I can never move away from the ocean after living here in Vancouver.
Just the hypnotic sound of the waves rolling in, the beautiful sunsets reflecting off the water, the amazing animals that live in the sea.
I have to live by the ocean, I feel like a part of me is dying when I am not near it!
I have dreamed in this resent years of own my own custom built home.One built to our desires,a safe,and beautiful home.One safe for my son and comfortable for us all.Most of all OURS!
