I have been working for many years to find the right balance for me.
Currently, by day I am a software engineer, but in my off time I am basically a recreational farmer — as in keeper of animals, not gardening. Though, plants are often involved in service of the animals.
I live in suburbia and am pretty ideally located as far as local resources and infrastructure. So I brought a little bit of the wilderness to me. Currently spending a bunch of time on my koi pond.
Unfortunately we’re living in a world that no longer has much unowned/unsettled land. Everything has been bought and hoarded by the ultra wealthy.
This is something I will never understand. You want all of the trappings of civilization without being part of it? You want your cake and to eat it too.
If thats what you think happened, then you dont get it. readsettlers.org
I would love to move to some US state with lots of forested country and go build a cute little homestead. Work part time to buy things I need.
Mmm...my dream. Also BTW I'm in my early 20's.
Canada has huge tracts of land in the Canadian wilderness.
get a gun though. the neighbors can be a real bear.
I need to move to Central or South America. I would love to live like that but I can't stand the cold. This past winter just about did me in mentally.
It's just a dream though. Got family that I love tying me down here.
Someone owns the forest and you owe them rent
Yes and no. Lot of cheap land out there, very little in taxes.
The bigger problem is someone owns the supplies you need to survive, and there's not a lot of jobs out there to make ends meet.
hope you find the right partner, and a good water source
Its always a good idea to consult your local fat checker to verify these claims.
Me, Local Fact Checker (who is also very tired and lazy): "seems fine"
my fat is prettyy high, sadly, although these lads had higher fats
And this is why you have car-centric infrastructure and suburbia.
Pretty sure that's a post 1900 invention. Trains were the hot stuff in the 1800s
