Help us keep our house!


We're building a house in Auckland, New Zealand. And we'd love to actually live in it! For circumstances beyond our control, the bank is making us sell it on completion unless we can get $110,000 from somewhere else. Read the full story here.

Do you have something you would like to swap with us for a One of a Kind Hidden Projector Home entertainment system? Help us swap our way up to $110k so we can stay in our home. See more details of the offer here.



Please get in touch with us ASAP if you have something to swap! Post a comment here, message us on our facebook page or call me on 0276 354 901.

Thanks and blessings
- Amy and Josh

One small step to stop the world turning to custard

At a social gathering someone was having a whinge about various conspiracy theory governmental issues turning the world to custard. It wore me down over about an hour or so and I finally asked "well what's the answer to this problem, you're clearly upset about it, what are you going to do about it?" The person most likely had no idea, and they turned the question on me. So I replied that I thought permaculture was the answer. And they agreed and that was the end of the conversation, and the whinge. Thank God almighty! Natural and pure is definitely a big trend in food circles these days. Having run a food manufacturing business myself, I'm very aware of what the bigger companies get away with when it comes to food additives. It made me realise the only thing that's 100% trustworthy is food you've grown yourself. Then I stumbled across "permaculture" and completed a certificate in permaculture design. Essentially this word refers to harness...

A little encouragement for first home buyers

I thought our interview with Mike Hosking was going to have a bit more about encouraging others to think creatively to get into their first house. Understandably though there was not really much time to fit in everything that was going on. So I thought I'd add a post about how we got into our first house despite it being the hardest time ever to get into a house (which it is every year!) Josh and I were both students and we shared a house with 2 other flatmates. For a year we both received the student loan payments (of around $140 per week) but we didn't spend any of it because we worked jobs while students. When I got my first corporate job after graduating, we bought the above house in a suburb of Auckland near my workplace. Even though banks were lending close to 100% at the time, it was at the height of the property boom near the end of 2006 when prices were through the roof. We bought this 3 bedroom house with a musty smelling rumpus and a separate one bedroom minor...
