About Me

Kev Alviti: I'm trying to live as Self sufficiently and contained as possible. From growing our own food, raising some of our own meat and earning a living from my hands. I work as a carpenter and I'm passionate about woodwork, traditional crafts and trying to learn as much as I can about them through doing. I strongly believe in family and family values and I love a more traditional way of life.
