Ep. 33 | Buying an Abandoned Jack Rabbit Cabin in Joshua Tree, CA | Part 2

Welcome to episode two of the three part series - Buying an Abandoned Cabin in Joshua Tree, CA. This Episode covers the first couple months on the property - from the moment we took the keys, to the moment we realized we may have made a terrible investment. There are way too many stories to pack into a 30 minute show, but this covers the highlights. We really wanted to deliver a sense of what the days were like and how we approached the project as a family living off the grid. Over the first few months the only amenity was running water through a hose, which was a godsend, but everything else was through the van - solar power, compost toilet and a chilly solar shower. However, with each day the project progressed on all fronts - landscaping, exterior, interior, shower house, outhouse, solar power, etc… Stay tuned for the final episode of this series and check out @AfueraVidaCasita to learn more of the project. ABOUT THE PODCAST Rewilding Parenthood is a podcast for families leading bold and courageous lifestyles. Formerly told as an interview based podcast featuring other families, it’s now pivoted to track the journey of @afueravida, a family of four seeking to rewild themselves through experiences. Each week hosts Colin Boyd and Sofi Aldinio check in from a new location, recording from the road in their 1978 German Emergency Vehicle as they travel a circuitous from Maine to Argentina. Along with stories shared they will cover off on a unique topic to inspire, educate and embolden the Rewilding Parenthood Community. Rewilding Parenthood was produced by Afuera Vida and hosted by Colin Boyd & Sofi Aldinio. Follow the journey, and podcast highlights on instagram @afueravida.

Om Podcasten

Today, we see a movement afoot. It's not limited to the countryside or the heart of the city, the movement is global and strong parents are choosing to restore, regenerate and re-cultivate what parenthood means and what success as individuals and as a family is. We call this rewilding parenthood and this podcast features parents leading this movement. Our podcast is told in 5 episode thematic based seasons - the purpose being we want families interested in a certain subject matter to get a holistic look at the lifestyle they seek to pursue and most importantly highlighting paths to achieving this life. Of the five episodes per season, four will be hosted by me in English and the fifth in Spanish and hosted by my partner, Sofi. So whether your kids are in your mind, in the womb, in diapers, school or taking care of you, the stories told here are for those of us who have chosen the sacrifice and joy of parenthood and seeking a better way to be.
