step.
In
the first 3 months of setting i’m our new land, our family will build a
shelter/home. Trover skills and experience with lumber and carpentry.
We brought with us the tools and supplies needed to do. Sophia and niina
have experience in hunting and gathering, and we brought with us enough
dried foods and grains to sustain ourselves for the next few months.
Plus the nearby aboriginal people we met on our way into this area have
offered to teach us some of their ways to survive. On our way in, we
found a river that isn’t too far from our new homestead. Sophia carries
water each day. we have experience in the market from previous trading.
This will be useful so we can start sharing resourses with other
settlers. Ariana makes blankets and rugs from wool that we sell. Also,
with neighboring settlers that have not come prepared. as for other
supplies we bought a few building supplies. The aboriginal people we
have met offered to help us explore and become familiar with the land we
have come to. so we have knowledge from our family members before us in
the land exploration and usage.
The
land where we are settling is near other settlers and a major
traveling route so we can easily trade our crops and products. Our
land is very flat with not many ground plants, more trees. The trees are
spread apart so there is easily room for growing crops. The soil is
quite dry, but there is a river not too far off. For watering that
plants and for drinking. There are some wild animals around mainly
birds, squirrels and the occasional deer. When we first arrived my
family was in awe of the beauty of the forest and excited to start our
new life here.
