Ever dreamed of swapping your life for something totally different? Well, in 1962 a British journalist, Brendon Grimshaw has done just that. He bought a tiny little island in the
I for one, can’t wait to watch it. How about you? I love
that he doesn’t want to sell the land and wants to preserve the natural life on
the island. Way to go, Brendon! xo
P.S: Also, this adorable twosome and this special place in Kenya.

That is the dream and the way he talks about his island is very heart-warming. Diana where do you find all those cool things? Cheers, Grace
It's really beautiful,, that there are people who care, and will do everythig not to sell it to developers... Great ;)
But... there's somethig else what makes me shock. Did he really paid 10000 pounds for the whole island?? It's incredible today...
I cross my fingers for the Moyenne :)
I watched with the sound off as it's only 4:50 a.m. here and the hubs is still sleeping but I think I got a feel for it anyway.
Whenever I dream of living that kind of life, I am jolted back to reality of my need for good healthcare, so sad.
Yup, kishipsa! That is exactly how much he paid for the whole island in 1962. Incredible, indeed!
What a dream to buy your own island and live wildly. Maybe someday!
That is a good point, Jeanette and HiLLjO, wouldn't that be cool?
He was on tv the other day talking about his island! Don't know if it's the same docu you're talking about, might be. It looked like bliss.
Polly, that is so right. I read somwewhere that he had a program on BBC. (I think)
This is remarkable. So happy that wealthy man would put the environmnet first!
so hard to imagine actually owning your own island?! How incredible! I'm so glad he's preserving the natural life of the island.
Isn't that awesome, Patricia?
Thanks. Humans try to do what they call fix up or develop, instead they mess up perfection. The only thing imperfect is humans. One day God is going to have enough of greedy people and paradise will be found.
