Yippppeeeeee….I'm dust free! Dust free peeps and oh how joyfully clean it feels.
It's been half a week exactly since all work was stopped and on to final details, the paint line isn't quite straight, this little bit of wood needs sanding…you get it. I might be admitting I'm a perfectionist…hmmmm.
But finally, drum roll please, it's here!
Enjoy.

Inside outside
Maybe I mentioned that I'm covered in dust 24/7??? One of the reasons I'm covered in dust (yes I will go on and on about it!) is that I'm building two bathrooms…and one is kind of an inside/outside bathroom, with a beautiful gardinia tree coming out of the ceiling. Hopefully eventually to give you a feeling that you are bathing in lush tropical garden…think big rain shower head, the smell of gardinia and a view of mexican pink bouganvilla…
Here are a few inside/outside that got me going.

More envy...
More house envy I'm afraid…I can't seem to get enough of people and their interior flare…
The grey with the vivid colors makes me WANT to live here…
and this…would work perfectly in the climate I live in!

What have I been doing with my life so far?
So I figured that I should really start off with what I've been doing for the past 3 years of my life. It all started with a phone call beckoning me to Mexico to renovate a baby hacienda, turning it into a luxury self sustainable hotel / guest house.
And that´s what I did, with absolutely no background in building, design, decor, or eco-friendliness I dove straight in. It has been a tough 3 years I can tell you, but at last we opened and people love it.
We are 100% solar powered, recycle all of our water, grow our own organic produce as well as all those little things that you won´t notice to make us eco friendly and sustainable...
You can see how different it is now compared to when I arrived, stunned into silence (does not happen often I can tell you) by the fact from the gate I couldn´t even see the main house...but now look..we have a drive way and everything!
