Blythe Tait

Biography

Blythe Tait lives in the middle of nowhere in Tasmania, Australia with her husband Peter Robey, their two sons, and a dog in a house Peter and Blythe built themselves with no prior building experience. After a life in the city mostly engaging in pursuits in which they acquired no useful skills for homesteading (photography for Peter, poledancing for Blythe), they made the decision to take the leap, move to the wilderness, and figure it out as they went along. It seemed crazy enough to write a book about.
