About Us
My family and I have been living in a rental property in a Brisbane suburb for more than five years. We have adopted a lifestyle of being less reliant on the system and becoming more self-sufficient. We do this by growing our own food, using resources readily available to us and using the urban environment to our benefit. As a result, we have created a more resilient existence. More importantly, living in a block of five units, we created a small functional community, where sharing and caring is the order of the day.
Sustainable living to us means an enhancement of life, lowering our living expenses and being environmentally aware, without compromising our comfort or incurring extra expenditure.
We set a prime example of what can be achieved in a rental property, passionately sharing our experience and knowledge with the general public via newspaper articles, radio interviews, TV programs, presentations and workshops - constantly inspiring people to take the first step…
We have created the notion of “SpurTopia”, where we are living a fulfilling life in complete happiness. We have achieved a great lifestyle and work-life balance. Enjoying every moment of life, having a sense of belonging in our community and achieving our aims and all encourage us to take further steps into an amazing future ahead of all of us.
