Oh, I know!

I live in the middle of a forest in the middle of nowhere. After living in over 20 cities in 4 countries, over 13 years - I am very done with city life. We started out here with a patch of untouched forest and lived the first 14ish months fully off-grid. I'm talking like - getting water from the creek in buckets and chopping down enough trees to make room for our trailer to live in off-grid.

We have mains power and starlink now, but remote is definitely the right word for our situation. The nearest human is about 5km away most of the year, with the occasional hunter in the fall and camper in the summer.

Now all I need to do is build another shed so that we can buy two big freezers and take the town trip frequency down to quarterly instead of monthly :)
