House Interior

This interior photo shows the simple wood frame of the houses.  And notice the limited belongings - mostly bright colored clothing, a simple bed on the floor and a shelf of hand-crafted items to sell.  They report that it gets quite cold at night so they merely add more blankets to stay warm.  It's a pretty simple lifestyle.

The islands were first inhabited to avoid paying taxes on the mainland and that's still the case.  But they also receive no benefits.
