Why did you leave that spot? It lookd gorgeous and I'm sure the weather
would have been better than in Tassie.

Was only renting and way beyond my budget (house I was renting was for
sale at around $800K at the time) and ultimately I really wanted to
get as far away as possible from the rat-race. Kiama suited me at the
time for a few reasons.
IMO there are few places left on the mainland that suit my needs these
days (by my standards). I also much prefer the climate here, most
things I'm interested in eating (be that animal or vegetable)
grow/live here perfectly well. Good clean food is essential to me. My
food comes from my property, hunted or trading with friends - NOT from
a supermarket. I have pure water coming down from the mountains in my
stream, I have all the rainwater I need.
It's cheaper. There's less people. Less government interference.
Just less shit in general :)

I'ts amazing how well one can live with a decent veggie garden, a few
animals and a bit of time spent doing domestic stuff.

Yup. Makes sense to me.
I've been lusting after a place at Lachlan (Tassie) that appeared on
Gardening Oz - won't happen, but I do like a bit of Real Estate P**n:

I can understand that. We love Tassie and get there as often as we can.

Nice. I don't think I've been to Lachlan as yet. I have some friends
selling a property which may as well have been custom made for me -
$500K though and I have no desire to go into debt.
