That was all english and I understood every word!A bach is a holiday home. It's actually short for bachelor home and there's a whole raft of cultural expectations to go with it. The implication is that it got built in a hurry by labourers out of whatever materials were available because it was better than sleeping in a tent while working in a place inaccessible by road. It then got handed down through the generations and is now prized because those inaccessible locations are now accessible and often places you'd be quite happy to go for a week in the summer. My mate's grandfather built his out of lumber recovered from a disused sawmill. It has a view of a nice surf beach.
A lifestyle block is a hobby farm. Smart owners can make a profit from one, but that's not what it's there for.
