People still ask us how it all started...

We started to dream about our own place soon after we started dating ... Finding a wheelchair accessible house for rent is not an easy task and the rents here on the coast are higher than in other places. We found a nice place and lived there for 5 years....but had to move and find another place... Living like that, not knowing what will happen next year, is quite stressful and you can never call the house you are living in "home"...
In 2009 the owner of our first rent-house started to talk about selling the house but for a price we couldn't afford so we started looking around for a perfect place to build our dream home. After seeing almost every piece of land for sale (for a friendly price) on our 43km long coast in September 2009 we found the perfect spot :-)

We always wanted to live near the city and the border (Vito works in Trist) but in a small village surrounded by great neighbors and nature.

The place we found is not big - only 550m2 (5920.150 ft²) - but it has everything we wanted: is only 3km from the boarder, 6km from the city, the neighbors are great and we have a wonderful view over Trist and woods... we also see a small piece of sea from there and all those things all together makes it the perfect place...

In December 2009 we signed all the papers and are now the proud owners of this small Laputa...

In February 2010 we start working with a great architect and soon after the project was done... but that's another story....and another post :-)
