Would you move if you could?

I used to love to travel. Was a time I was same as Claudia. Gone without notice. I could go somewhere and take a job for a few weeks or months and go again.

I never perfected the process and was usually short of cash.

I used to want to buy derelict houses and restore them. If I lived in one for two years while I fix it up I didn't owe income tax after the sale. This last house has nearly worn me down. Work is harder and takes longer now.

My pipe dream is to build a fantasy cob house village in the Smokies and rent to tourists by the night or week. A corner cob store at the entrence beside the little cob rental office. Mini golf course. Trails through the woods. Community fire pit. Hopefully a place that would encourage guests to mingle. Maybe the odd sports court, croquet, bocci ball...

Examples of cob houses:

I love it in the Smokies. That's a really awesome idea. I want a hobbit hut. About 5 years ago I found these pre fabricated ones that you just bury in the side of a hill. I just don't want to do that around here. Once my son seems like he is going to be ok on his own hopefully my adventures will begin again.

If I could yeah. Dream place would be somewhere remote like up a mountain in Switzerland. Away from society and all the madness that brings.
