No Poo Day 5

March 8, 2010

Day 5 of my shampoop-free lifestyle!
Condition: Still light and fluffy. It feels a little heavier than usual but no grease or itch or yicky smell
My method: I’m using conditioner at the roots and pulling it through to the ends of my hair.  It seems to break up the sebum (natural scalp oil) and [...]

Explanations and an Idea

March 4, 2010

I helped my little brother paint his living room the other night and we got to talking about minimalism.  He is naturally a minimalist and he doesn’t even know it.  He’s more of a rational minimalist than I am, seeing as he owns a house in the suburbs, owns a car, a motorcycle and what [...]

March 2, 2010

Tammy from RowdyKittens just released her new e-book Simply Car-Free yesterday! Hooray! Make sure you hurry to purchase it as the first 500 peeps get it for $9.95.  After that it goes up to $12.95.  Also, if you love the book and want to share it with others (while making some $) you can sign [...]

Backpack Update

March 1, 2010

I got most of my backpack items together and took pictures! Keep an eyeball open, I’m going to be posting them and the pictures of all my donated crap here in the next little bit.
I have almost everything that I have listed. There are just a couple of items that I need to purchase and [...]

My Backpack List

February 25, 2010

So I decided the other day (and I think I shared it here. If not, well then, I’m sharing it now!) that I never ever EVER want moving to be a hassle again. I want to be able to throw all my crap into a backpack and hit the dusty trail.  So last night during [...]

Luludja: The Flower of Life

February 20, 2010

This is my first attempt at designing a vardo (gypsy caravan). I think it’s beautimus and is designed after this vardo:

So her name is Luludja which means “flower of life” in the Romani (gypsy) language.  She is 6′x12′ which is awesome for those of us who don’t want a huge mansion on wheels.  This one [...]

Welcome Back!

February 20, 2010

So I thought about it for a while and decided that it would be much much wiser to keep this blog going than to switch everything over to a new blog. I’m smrt (smart without the a). When I have dumb ideas like that, feel free to let me know just how dumb they are! [...]

My Housetruck

February 7, 2010

This was inspired by the idea of taking a moving truck, y’know the giant 20′+ Uhaul trucks, and building a house on the back of it.
The bed is raised off the floor where the van body arches up over the cab of the truck.  The bed platform would be extended about a foot into the [...]

Yet another sketchup model! Yay!

January 29, 2010

Here’s another model 2 different ways.  I like that the bedroom is on the floor. I’m sure it needs a little tweaking to get it perfect It has no name just yet but I’ll work on that! Both of these layouts were inspired by this little apartment.
The one on the left has room [...]

alternative money

January 9, 2010

So, I was watching Douglas Rushkoff videos today and he talked about creating your own form of money to combat the centralized currency we currently use to purchase our groceries and such.  He mentioned a website called Time Bank and I thought that since we’re all about living more simply and giving to others and things [...]
