We're on our way

Gareth & I had always wanted to escape Sydney and a few years ago we were lucky to stumble across this beautiful paradise called Carool. This is our story of building our dream home. We look forward to sharing this with you over the coming year or so and hopefully look forward to welcoming you as our guest when we open our small luxury B&B.

Here we go.....again!

June 2011 will be known as a defining month in our lives. The month Pete turns 50. The month we get to enjoy some time on an island paradise with 20 or so of our friends. And the month that we got back on the road to our wonderful new adventure.

As most of you know, we hit a rather large speed bump on our way to creating our little piece of paradise last year (if you don't, you'll find the story in an earlier blog). Well, I'm pleased to say that we have now put that behind us and are moving full steam ahead to realising our dream.

Today we signed up with a building company Civic Steel Homes. We met Kirsten and Kelly (the architect who has designed all their homes) a couple of months ago. After much comparison, we decided that they were the best option for us. 

What I love about them is that they are passionate about our project. They read our business plan. They spent time on our property to feel the ambiance. They understand our desire to create something beautiful but mindful of our budget. There are some design cues from our last design - we spent 2 years on it so we haven't let every idea go - but I'm confident that we're about to create something pretty cool.

Can't wait to share the journey with you all xx
