A lot of people here would consider my place a shack - literally. My mother almost pooped herself the first time she saw it.
I've actually become interested in the small house movement and there are a lot of people like me who, once they live in a small place, not only like it better, but want to take it a step further and get rid of all the crap they've amassed over the years. It's liberating. I wouldn't mind unloading 90 percent of our s***. Wife is slowly coming around.
I say if you really want to move some place - move! Life is too short. I talked about moving for 15 years.
Even if your worried about kids, show them how 99 percent of the world lives.
