3th November 2009 was a day which might be considered the second milestone in the project that’s called “Four Elements House”.

Of course.., the first milestone was buying the land. But on 3th November  Lotte graduated as a Master of Sience from the Technical University of Delft, with a whopping 8,5. And she did it on the FEH design.

Les Stroud…

…is one of our heroes. His show Survivorman is awesome and he shoots it completely on his own. So he not just “survives”, he also carries around, sets up and maintains a ton of equipment. And produces a great show while doing all that, very impressive.
Oh, and he also lives off the grid.

See how The Great Stroud goes about achieving this, there’s also a Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7. Thanks to livingoffgrid.org for posting this.

Off the Grid

In the same tradition in which he shoots the Survivorman series he did a great job shooting the docu for his Off the Grid project. He shows what it takes to undergo a complete off the grid transition.

If you don’t like the YouTube format, you can also buy the DVD, or do it anyway if you like it.
