    New Zealand is seriously one of the most beautiful places on Earth. You get the alpine mountains of Switzerland, the volcanic peaks of Chile, the fjords of Norway, the rugged coastline of Oregon, and the lovely green hills of England, all in a secluded stretch of land in the middle of the ocean, overlooked by many. I'll visit New Zealand one day. One day..

      @Kobe Robertson Haha I agree, although what is life to you, or to I?
      It's something so precious to some, but to others it's just there, nothing.
      Why live a life of serving others, eating junk food and having unlimited entertainment, when you can live off the land, spend your entire day outside appreciating nature, and experiencing everything our ancestors have.
      I dont believe in any of that, remember that time where, before you were born, that pure darkness and unmoving feeling of relaxation, the feeling of not being aware, I'm sure its comparative to death itself, which is glory.
      I believe death will be true freedom in itself, no longer shackled by petty things such as work, food, thirst, sanity.
      Take a larger look outside, and think, "Is this real?"
      There is no such thing as living with pure FREEDOM, I laugh whenever kids or uneducated adults/teens think their free because they live remotely, far away from natural civilization, clouded with the thought of technology is shackles, when truth be told, the shackles are life itself.
      Pain will forever be with you, you're only a slave to your desires, such a pathetic life for such a creature, truly a misery beyond comparison I believe..

      Im from the philippines, life in here revolves around money. For me, the true purpose of life is subjective. To my perspective, it is the true purpose of life and it may differ from your perspective. If you disagree or agree with me , i dont care. Thats your opinion, and everyone can stand to their opinions. Im not making it deep, im just contemplating of "what ifs" that i should have done in my life. And i truly envy them.

    Wow! This would be my dream existence! If I didn’t have to be near a hospital to treat my cancer, I would live like this - off grid, in the wilderness. I LOVE nature and have been pretty self sufficient all my life, often foraging for food in the woods, even when I was a child and had no idea what I was doing, but trusting my instincts. I have tried to instill the same things in my children. Even now, almost 60 years old, I go off camping by myself (with my dog) several times a year. If there is such a thing as reincarnation, I hope to come back as a person who can live this type of life!

      Why would you need a gun in New Zealand? there are literally no dangerous animals and there are so few gun homicides you can count the amount nationwide on 2 hands on a bad year. Fair enough if you, like this video, need one to hunt but the only other reason to have one is because you're a scared little boy.

Generally, I find I develop a healthier identity alone than I do in relationship with any western culture.

      @@broms316 no it makes sense because a grid is a common term used by city planners because a grid system is the most efficient way to maintain water pressures, sewage flow, roads, etc. Most rural homes in america are almost off grid housing. The electrical grid is the last thing that connects most rural homes. A fully on the grid home really only applies to urban areas. Rural homes generally run septic for waste, wells for water, propane tanks if any gas at all, and are generally built in ways to reduce the need to heat or cool the home with electricity or gas. Which makes them mostly off the grid. Technicality yes anyone in space would be off the grid because they would have to generate power, take care of their waste, etc. The only thing they cannot do is grow food unless they are Matt Damon.

    Your story gives inspiration to those who are planning to live in rural. We would love to share this with our customers who bought vacant land from us and planning to live away from the city. They will surely get awesome ideas from your videos.
