Episode 8: Staying Curious and Understanding your Environment | Sacha Roy (CanadianCastaway)
Sacha Roy, a Canadian film maker who traveled the world filming with Red Bull, decided he wanted a change of pace in his life. He began dreaming up an off-grid escape for himself when he found a piece of land tucked away in the woods overlooking the Canadian wilderness. With a curious mindset (and some YouTube tutorials) Sacha designed and built himself a simple, but elegant “sugar shack” style cabin that would eventually be featured in Dwell Magazine.
His YouTube channel mixes beautiful scenery with different stages of the cabins development and his process for installing things like solar, rain water collection and heating. We ran out of time with some great conversations, but hope to have Sacha back again in the future to dive deeper in the details of all his off grid systems.
