Low Tech Self-Sufficiency in Her Amazing French Homestead 🇫🇷

We have never seen anything quite like this before. Situated in the idyllic French countryside is a self-resilient homestead that's in a league of it's own. Built for an incredible budget, this home and the woman who constructed it are nothing short of incredible.

Marie is a geo-biologist and animal therapist, but that doesn't even come close to describing this remarkable woman. Her talents have extended into all kinds of experimental building and amazing homesteading innovations on her journey to self-sufficiency and a life of freedom.

There is so much to say about her astonishing home that I'm not even going to try. You'll have to watch the video and find out for yourself. This is definitely one you don't want to miss!

We hope you enjoy the video. A huge thank-you to our French videographer Gabrielle for seeking out this amazing story for us to share with you and thank-you to Marie for inviting us into her one-of-a-kind home.

Marie is one incredible woman. What she has built for herself on this land is absolutely mind blowing! It's so inspiring to see people like Marie who are so clearly following their passions in life and making things happen for themselves. I absolutely love her innovations on the land, the off-grid things she has built like the cool stoves, and how clever are those half-buried structures! That greenhouse is a dream! We hope you enjoy the tour of her amazing homestead! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel! With Love, Bryce & Rasa & Our French Videographer Gabrielle!

The important thing to take from this video is the fact it’s finding what is important in life to find fulfilment. It’s not a fancy house or all the bling that goes with it. It’s connecting with the world we live in a meaningful way.

I grew more impressed by Marie with every minute. What a wonderful woman

[MariaBella-hc]

I am so amazed of how Marie is, independent, self reliant and a woman who is full of talent

[kamalsrecipes]

Watching from India. Very brave lady. Every single woman who feels lonely should watch this video.

[fereldensandwich]

I love that she updated her living environment as her son grew to accommodate his wishes too.

[Jchathe]

Wow, some people do nothing with their lives. This wonderful lady has been living to the max and long may she continue! Fabulous story, thank you for sharing 🙏💕

Marie is amazing! I love the way she not only put on the extension to her "caravan" tiny home, but that she also built two cabins for the hotter summer months. One of my favorite things was that bicycle-controlled washing machine. There's something about using yourself as a power generator that seems really cool!

[thinkplanetearth]

My goodness, the woman is simply impressive, and charming, and fearless. I mean, wow. Talk about living life to the fullest. And it's a great education that she's giving her son in learning not only to be self sufficient, but to living life on your own terms. Great example.

[JanesDough]

This is one tough and determined woman. I love her zest for living a good and clean life, and she is teaching her the son the basics that so many of us lack. What more do you need but a solid roof over your head, good food and water, and the ability to become more One with Nature. I wish her and her son the Very Best in their coming years.

Marie is amazing. Awesome & creative. And, Marie, thank you for not ever moving without your two horses, your dog, and your cat. I know they are grateful.

[susandam]

What a courageous woman with exquisite taste! Thank you for sharing your story. I loved it!

I have seen a lot of fancy and modern tiny houses on this show and they are all lovely, but this one stole my heart with its simplicity and efficiency. Deep inside, it’s not a mansion I crave, it’s peace and harmony with nature.

[BreaBreaBreeze]

This woman is a living breathing example of taking life by the horns. She is a true nurturer and caretaker of her child, the land, animals, plants and others. She’s using her time on earth and FULLY LIVING. What a woman! I bet her birth chart is out of this world lol

[delphina]

This is so liberating compared to all the fancy tiny house videos. She brings elegance to true simplicity. In her i see there is a saintliness to living in such harmony!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[ktdisco]

This is such a unique episode - thank you for showing so many different alternate lifestyles and building styles. This woman is incredible and such an innovator!

[ElizabethGrindon]

Love the pedaling washing machine and her reading a book while she pedals! So inventive! Also such a beautiful smile!

[emilypeterson]

This woman must never have a boring day in her life! Everytime i thought that the video was nearing the end (because surely she couldn't accomplish MORE, right?) it kept just kept going on. 🤯 one of the wisest humans on earth. Wow, what an honor it would be to be her friend 🩷

[ardethellis]

Wow. Just wow. I need to rewatch this every week to remind me what is possible.

Thank you Bryce and Rasa for bringing Marie to us.

My goodness, what an an astonishing woman!!! Apparently, she’s not daunted by anything. And she’s so accomplished, with her education, building skills, gardening/farming skills, animal care, music, bilingual. So impressive. It seems that there’s nothing she can’t do. Thanks for sharing this lady with us.😮🇨🇦
