@slhomestead - I like the "simple life" although, it is not simple at all but back to the basics - and off-grid living - thank you for sharing!
I plan to purchase 100 acres of timberland in the Ozarks, Arkansas and would offer some parts to young people to live off-grid, perhaps build self-sustaining earth-ship homes (mostly with recycled materials), an organic farm ...
I followed you and if you are open to such collaboration in any way, please keep in touch.
All the best!
Yeah, we never equate "simple" with "easy". We meant it more in the way of "uncomplicated". City life was so full of distractions, busyness, and dependence that it was impossible to live simply.
And your goal sounds pretty awesome. We will probably build an earthship-style house here. Not enough land for others, really, but it is good enough for us!
Let me know if you have any ideas for collaboration.
Keep me posted on your journey and I will do likewise.
All the best!
