Help available on alternative energy or greenbuilding project in Guatemala....

Ultimately, I would love to try homesteading here in Central America; building a cave home or earthen home to direct those activities using the vast, yet underused, natural resources, would be economical and logical.  With the added threat of near-future-extreme-weather in our daily news, it makes sense to plan a shelter that can withstand heavy rains, the baking sun, rising water levels, and public energy interruptions -- no matter what, or who, generates them. 

There are several excellent sites on construction and fine-tuning these types of "green" homes, and basically............ I've always been swept up by hobbit habitats !

I've done enough researching on the internet -- I need hands-on experience.  Having grown up with a building contractor for a father, I know enough not to jump right into building my own house with limited experience.  I am excited to learn about all aspects of construction with natural resources, with my two strong hands, alongside a more experienced greenearthbuilder willing to share his/her knowledge.

I have skills and knowledge of plants, gardens, organic composting, as well as water and soil management.  My partner is an ace woodworker and a handyman with mechanical processes. We would be interested in hearing from you and can offer more information as needed at psorensen69@msn.com !  Thanks!
