Self Sufficient

I was watching Grand Design and there was this guy that lived in a leaky caravan so he wanted to make his own house. The whole house is made out of natural materials from around the forest he built it in. It cost 28,000 pounds. He uses a stream and rain water collector for fresh water. For electricity he uses solar power and wind turbines. For his sewage he has a compost thing happening not that far from the house. So the entire house cost cost under 30,000 pounds and he never has to worry about bills. He's a legend. His first name is Ben, not sure what his last name is but he is awesome. He gives me hope that some day I'll be able to build my own self sufficient home somewhere on a beach with great consistent waves.
