I'm glad to I wish we could just go back to when we didn't have to rely on company's to get what we need but are selves only or at least family friends like the old times when family 👪 would actually care ❤
me, im 19 and i hate the system that is created. Like he sauys, working 2 jobs just to pay your bills. I want to live for myself, not live for a boss because i have no other choice. Off grid living will be my choice, i am planning as of now, i hope this is my future.
I’m 20 years old i don’t have a family or anything i’m still in college but a very very big part of me wants to just say screw all this and try and live off grid i’ve always loved the idea of living off the land but ironically enough it always seemed like it was something just too expensive too do.
I'd love to say f it too. However, I'm 36, barely scraping by and a single mom. And, unfortunately we cam only have the life we can afford to purchase..... Stay in school! Make all the money u can once u get out. Find a companion w the same ideas. Make it happen. But, DO NOT say screw it all yet my sweet boy. And, being in school despite the lack of support is a feat in itself! Keep up the good work! U can do anything u put ur mind to, especially when u got a little loot to work with😉.

I like the realness I felt in your words. Genuine and honest. It took me back in time when I was a kid and we had lots of chickens and a few sheep. Life was good eventhough half of the time we didn't have sugar for our tea. Those days were priceless because as a family everyone was together....🤔🙂 but now😔
I have been considering living off the grid. I want to get away from the modern conveniences and get back to the basics. My life has been inundated with too much ease, conveniences, and dependencies, and I realized that all of this is the cause of my anxiety and misery. I want to disconnect and live a very basic life.
I would really love to live off grid right now... especially with the way things are going. You were wise to leave "normal" life behind. It is unreliable, especially now. If we get through this difficult period alive, I will be moving off grid, start homesteading and never looking back.
I depend on electricity that I don’t produce; I don’t even know where it comes from. When you said you have a heating system you can trust, that statement was deeper than most people realize.
I don’t know why I am watching so many off-grid videos at my age I would not be able to AT ALL. Maybe this can prepare me for the future if I really want to do this with my life :)
Everyone that wants off grid living with a lot less restrictions think of abondoned villages in mountains of East Europe! My neighbor is selling his land 3/4 acre for 1, 800 dollar cash , 35 dollars per year land tax on the spot ! You can live bill free off grid immediately! Caution the move will not be easy!

Hi Phil. We do plan to make time-lapse video of the full build when we get one closer to us. So far we have been shipping most of them very far from us.
Thank you for this video! Me and my fiancé recently bought a remote lot with 32 acres in MO that has septic and a pre drilled well and a fixer upper with a rain water catch system already but we want to go further and truly go off grid and are trying to get ideas on how to do so
My goal is to live off grid when I build, but I am nervous about using firewood to heat the home. Even a home which is built with good insulation and is fairly air tight will of course lose heat over time. I would be worried about going to work while my dog is there alone, for example, even of there was a way to leave a fire safely burning then it would eventually die, and there is no way I would ever leave it burning. I have no one living there with me and so there would be no one to tend to it and no one to help him stay warm. Eventually I want to live this way, as I highly value living in harmony with the land and reducing my footprint so to speak. I am thinking of buying one of these kits very soon as I believe I may have found a suitable plot of flat land, and have been exchanging emails with the city building administration regarding building codes etc for the land. But I must continue working for now not only to afford the build and moving costs, as well as pay for my classes as much as possible as I go, to help try to mitigate future debt that is sure to arise from seeking higher education in America, even if I do qualify for scholarships once I begin going back to school full time. It's going to be a bumpy road, but renting in the city here while having a dog has become nearly impossible to do by myself even working full time. I've lately been considering a second job, but the idea of making my poor dog stay here all alone for even more time out of the day than he already is a heartbreaking idea to me. I think one of these houses, if I'm able to find financing, would cost slightly less per month or equivalent to what I pay now for a little one bedroom apartment which I'll never own or be able to modify. I hope to be working with you very soon, and I appreciate all these videos.
Have you heard of rocket stoves? Especially when built with cob bench? There is a man in Northeast USA (very cold in the winter) who heated his home with junk mail for a winter with his rocket stove... the cob is quite thermodynamic so it holds heat well and the there are versions of the rocket stove build that insulate with cob in the stove itself. Definitely worth looking into.
My family and i have a wood stove in our house for 16 years and we dont worry about it. We often leave the house with it still burning, or stoke it up for the night and go to bed.
I'm planning on saving up money for three or four years then getting some property up north. Wish me luck, today I begin my journey to my cabin in the woods
Me too. I just don't believe that humans belong in offices and apartment blocks. We are animals at the end of the day, we should be free too. I have too much student loan debt unfortunately... :'(
Rocket stoves are even better! They run on fallen branches! In the summer my mom and I put water bottles in black plastic and we heat our water thatway
I'm worried about what questions to ask the county to find out if they will enforce or not care what I do on the land? And what to look for in zoning laws? What should you ask them, and hopefully with the right wording to not trigger enmity from them?
Hi if you see this I am very curious about the song being played in the background. It reminds me of a song I heard in my childhood and I’d love to know what it is. Thank you
Is living off grid really affordable, all needs is fulfilled? I mean energy and heat for living, i can live off the grid and i can have a job, i think Avrame will be my next house, and i have a question, can use Avrame house for living daily ? i read some people use this house for holiday or weekend.....can u answer please ?
is it possible to a single girl to live off grid? i can not chop wood. is it possible to get solar panel to make heater? how much the cost of start up?
Sure, it is possible for single girl. You can get chopped wood for money. There are solar water heating panels available. The cost depends on your location and personal requirements.
@@sufferingorthodoxy352 those are a scam.you want land you go to people directly! Dont trust those. The cheapest to buy is in the mountains that you have to fix yourself. mine was 6, 700 dollars cash on sale
When it comes to off grid use rain water when can also wash clothes by hand saves on electric and water. When it comes to medical know who is around you and if they are a doctor then you have your medical taken care of or you can study to find out what is wrong with you and find things that you can grow to help your health.for heat wood stove. Electric use solor or wind depends on what is best for you also you can have some things shipped like seeds and clothing and some of you food
