I made a pretty drastic move. I have no running water at all, no sewage system, only have wood heating, no car and a very small house.. In a way, I jumped back a hundred years living wise. My mobile being the only modern gadget.
I think the hardest thing has been loneliness. Some people are intrigued by my living style but even they say they could never give up modern conveniences. So I am doomed to be a lonely wolf, something I don't always fancy.
Clothes are easy - I have s sauna for heating water, running my manual washing machine and drying the clothes.
Solar doesn't work in the Arctic winters so I judt don't use electricity. Charge my mobile in the library. I adore my root cellar, which keeps all foods perfectly.
I have my river and my chickens for protein, and vegetable gardens for veghies. Orchard will start producing soon.
So yes. Loneliness.
