Living in another World

Ann and her husband live on a small island in Nova Scotia Canada called McNutts where they are the only year around residents.

"We found this old house, built by fishermen in the mid nineteenth century, while searching the internet for a portal into another world."

You can visit Anne (and her husband) at her blog Nova Scotia Island, learn more about their home here, and check out the restoration of the fish house adjacent to their home @ Tiny House Blog.

  10. Oh this was fun! I love her blog, but I also fell in love with the Tiny House Blog. I've never cared for large homes for myself, I prefer smaller, now if I could just part with some of my "stuff" I would move into a tiny house. You know, something along the lines of a beach hut! lol

  11. This is such a cute story! I love when people live a different life - break away from the norm and venture forth independently. It must be why I've always wanted to live on a boat - just make your own country from your own little surroundings... Great. Inspirational :) - Glad I found your blog. It's great.

    Cheers
