- In this video, I discuss my reasons for purchasing my off grid cabin back in 2020. I also share some of the personal views that have driven my decision making process in the past, and how my opinions might influence my future.

Came across this by accident... you seem like a decent young man. Live your life your own way, and love will find you. It starts by loving yourself first and being genuine.... the rest will follow. Forget the suburbs, LIVE your best life.
There's nothing controversal about those statements. The world has lost it's mind and many people are living in delusion. Keep up the content, man. I found your channel recently and your videos resonate with me.
I came across your video with Al and was so impressed I decided to check out another of your videos. I really admire the leap of faith you took to become self-sufficient. I love how you think of the future. We may not always get to sit in the shade of the trees we plant, but others will. I respect your foresight and dedication.
I second that. Good Move!
Fellow Washington resident here near Bellingham. Great to hear I'm not alone in my belief in morals and values in this state. Just found your channel a week ago. Beige watching as much as possible. Great video
Small circle! Stay strong! Don’t listen to haters! There’s lots of us out here that think just like you! God bless brother!
This is one of my favorite videos of yours. I don't know why it almost made me cry. There seems to be such a lack of joy and gratitude for life's greatest treasures and it is so inspiring and encouraging to see you stand up for your values. I've always struggled with that. It's been a dream of mine to have an off grid cabin and hopefully it will happen some day. It's never too late until it is.
Because of your ability to tell it like it is... straight forward, I just subscribed ! Great videos man!
I think it’s amazing that you have the maturity at such a young age to be in touch with exactly what you need to make your life a happy one. I spent so much of my youth trying to please other people at the expense of my own wishes. Keep doing what you’re doing because it’s so important to write your own story and not feel guilty doing it. I find you inspirational, and I’m 62 this year. Thanks for sharing
Thanks 🙏 for your inspiration. If I was an old guy in the woods and you treated me with the friendship you have with Al it would restore my faith in humanity.
Find your own way on your own rules.
My grandfather gave me the best advice for life.
" Get advice from everyone you love and trust, take with a grain of salt, use what you think is right for you and discard the rest"
The only one that knows what's right for you in your world is you yourself.
Keep it real and keep your head up and keep pushing, you'll get there in the end.

Youngman I don't know you but you makes so much sense. Young people today's priorities and value systems and quick decisions....your parents I'm sure are very proud of you. You don't talk you do and prove it as well. The girl that marries you and father her children are very fortunate. My English not good but Im sure you would understand what I'm saying. Watching from South Africa best of luck for your future plans
I'm here for it!!!! So relatable especially with 2020!!! That's the year I took it leap of going from a city to a rural tiny house! And now I'm finishing a van conversion! Dreaming of getting 100% off grid. New subscriber!! 👋👋👋🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
I agree 100% with what you are saying Diego.
Given half a chance I would have done what you have done . If the SHTF you can get out and survive with your loved ones out there .
I love your videos . please keep posting them 😊
Came by your videos by accident. What amazing young man you are. You seem to be getting your life together. Live your life the way you enjoy your life. I’m old enough to be your grandmother so I have lived life with some regrets. Life goes by so fast. I think you have your head on straight.
You described the US Government to a T. Diego, You have freedom of speech. You have a moral obligation to say what you feel. You are entitled to your opinions and beliefs. This is a huge country. People all have differing opinions. You do not have to apologize for the way you feel. If someone harasses you for your values or for your opinion, cut them off. Block them. Don't buy into their tirades. Friends know friends have differing opinions of life in general. But they love you still. So, even if a friend has a different opinion, as long as it does not stress your relationship out with them, its ok for you to have your opinion and respect theirs. As long as they respect you too for having your own thoughts and views. I think you are a great guy. Enjoy your life young man.
Hello from a first generation immigrant in this country. I like learning about locals and videos like this are quite helpful. Thank you! As an outsider, it’s somewhat easier for me to observe different people and groups of people, study their behavior and motivation. Absence of attachments and needs to pick sides help me to keep the bias down.
I’ll allow myself few observations about this video. Your statement about seeking challenge and being open to corrections in your views are quite rare. Americans are rarely this open and in most cases sound very sure and firm about their beliefs. Another observation is about comments in this video. I couldn’t notice any sense of disagreeing or challenging your statements. Pretty much everyone expressed some level of support.
I myself like to question what I see, know or feel. And I wish I had more people around me who’d be willing to tell me more about their perception of the world. Anywho, thanks and good luck.

So rad! I know your probably younger than me but I think it’s so so rad that as a man you have created this. Your future wife and kids are going to be so blessed to have this cabin the memories the adventures and the core lessons that kids can learn out there is immeasurable to what is taught now. We are “baby preppers as well” but we have been waiting about four years to afford to buy our own small piece of land out here in AZ and with inflation we hardly survive as it is. With our two kids we have now we homeschool, with that we do a lot of unschooling. We teach survival, plants protection fires water and filtrations, resources, health, hunting fishing so it def is pretty rad to be able to do homeschool. Your gratitude and hard work put into this cabin is really rad!
Diego I just found your channel and I’m so proud of you!!! You are strong , intelligent ,hardworking and brave in speaking honestly about your beliefs! I love your hoodie “Pro women,babies, love and life! I have always stood up for my strong beliefs and it HAS caused me to loose people I love dearly ! It’s a painful
Decision , but I couldn’t keep quiet to keep the peace!
Diego, thank you for sharing this video with us! It comforting to know we are Not alone and were willing to suffer the consequences for the right to choose!
@77 yrs young it’s great to hear from strong young men who value
Women, life, babies , country &
God!
Shalom!
Your cabin looks nice and cozy and I fully believe in your philosophy too (I’m your step cousin Sarah btw) We just got a place by lake merwin and I’m hoping to go off grid slowly but surely. First thing on my list is a woodstove, then hopefully a garden this spring.
Thank you Sarah! 🙏 Congrats on your new place 👏
@@DiegoTriesHard thanks ❤️
You are totally on the right track, Diego. I'm so glad I discovered your channel tonight. New sub, waving hello from New Mexico and wishing you God's blessings in your life. I'll be following along.
Great video. The way you put things in perspective is amazing.
You are very inspirational, seeing young people such as yourself taking a stand on your beliefs and values gives me great hope for the future of society.
Never ever let anyone intimidate or bully you into not standing for what you know is right. There is a lot of noise in the world but I absolutely guarantee you that the majority of people think exactly like you, the naysayers are just a little louder, we have to speak the truth and stand firm.
I am in complete agreement with your thoughts and choices.
I love your cabin and admire your resourcefulness.
Thank you for your voice and God bless you.
Great video! I just subscribed. Love the message on your sweatshirt! I built my cabin for many of the same reasons that you discussed. I believe we are headed for bad times as a country and having a safe place to go to will be very important. You are wise to have done this so early in your life. I was not able to start until I was close to retirement. I will leave my place for my kids someday. All the best! - Dave
Hey man, what an excellent outlook on life! I'm down here in Texas and have a cabin myself in Oklahoma, which was purchased mid 2020 for the same reasons. Good luck!
You are living my dream retirement in the next 27 years! I’m going to get there eventually.
You are a breath of fresh air!!!!!
I admire your outlook, especially your love for living. It takes planning to enjoy and live a preppers lifestyle. I've had forty years of success and failures, trying. Many events, over many years, made me think it was over for man, but only our creator knows that time. Nurture relationships, stay positive, and keep helping others.
We saw your video about helping with the water wheel....and I just got this great vibe how you related to the owner of that cabin w water wheel...so next day we watched Big Island videos ( we used to live on Big Island near Puna) and then watched this video...we knew we liked you! Good growth goals keep pressing forward! MAHALO.
Great channel and i love what your doing. Unplug thats all i can say. Stop worrying about the noise. Take care of yourself and learn as much as you can. Every moment you give to that noise is a drain on your life a moment you could have spent living. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤙🏻
You got a good head on your shoulders. I'm 50 now, and looking I wish I would have done what you're doing in my 20's, but having kid's early in life kinda changed everything for me. I don't regret having them, all 3 are my heart, and all 4 grandchildren are my breath. But they would have had a much better life, than what they see and have had in a city anywhere. I live in Bama, but Montana, Wyoming, Washington, or deep in Alaska, is where I really wanna be. Good luck and God bless you, young man. What you're doing is well worth it in the end.
Hi, I loved your video, it's my future plan as soon as I retire soon, to build my off the grid cabin, with my life partner.
I was moved to get out of the city in 2001, I got my little land but there were no jobs out here so I kinda piddled around till 2007 where I saw being a trucker I could live anywhere, so I switched from accounting to trucking, got my home 2008, started paying it off and ordering my above ground beds, built my chicken coup and run, built my leanto where I would raise my meat chicks, and just kept ordering what I would need for when home paid off I could jump into my gardening, chickens in 2021 December I made that dream a reality when I got my place paid off… I agree with you Diego children need a father figure expecially boys to teach them how to be men, little girls need that father figure to know what to base their future husband on. Stand for your self, morality,and fellow humanity regardless how this world falls apart around us.
Good for you ! I’m with you speaking your truth and the real truth! God bless you ! Looking forward to more adventures from you !
If you see this, or anyone else reading, I think one of the main issues that has created "two sides" is that each side and maybe I am biased though I feel I am very middle of the road, but especially one side will never sit down and discuss. They have their "facts" no matter how much it's proven to be false. I'm sure some of you have already heard it expressed as it's a religion. Though big time on the one, both do go through the motions of a religion and some on crazed cult status. A non deity religion on the level of the inquisition/with hunting etc. And the one side that this applies to more, they have most of the power institutions under it's sway. Pharma, big tech, govt etc. I personally feel time is running out to have discussions. Some of these people you can lop off their hand and they will claim it's still there.
how lucky you are to figure out and decide this so young... I would love to be somewhere like you have chosen... I just subscribed so i will look forward to more of your videos
Your switched on and truth is truth. Always stand in integrity. A cabin in the woods is a very good move. Well done you.
Being as far away from government and corporations is a wise move! ❤
just found you Diego! I'm gonna watch some. 2020 was rough.
Thank You! You are THE ANGEL among us! Bless you! Stay Safe!
I'm with you my friend. stick to your guns and what's meant to be is meant to be. Those who are blind will never see it.
You are a great looking young man. I feel like you are probably lonely. You are hopefully in a relationship with someone who enjoys that type of living. If not don't take anything personal. Eventually most people crave this type of living. Be patient. Don't rush yourself to do any growing up. That feeling you have where you have your youth all balled up tight in its place is a blessing . Hold on to it. Don't over think it. That will lead you to the perfect one for you. Lonliness is the road map to discovery. You learn more after that.
Liveing the life looks very nice and peaceful can’t find that today in this crazy world
I agree with everything you are saying.
The Covid years and the current political climate really were difficult for so many, but specially those that had just finished college. Here you all were with a good education and no place to really use it. I see so many younger people (25-35 years old) that are struggling with what to do next. Your approach of stepping back and accessing what you really want will serve you well. Good luck with your channel.
Same brother. Did the same thing. For the same reasons. NW#93
Love your work bro. Thanks for making this video. If more people had your heart and philosophy, we would have a much better world.
Really appreciate you brother 🙏
@@DiegoTriesHard I really hope your channel takes off, and gives you another income stream. Even moderate success could be a game changer for big picture stability.
@@DiegoTriesHard For real, that little bit of extra can really make a difference. My other channel recently became cash positive and its been huge, both for morale and for the budget. www.youtube.com/@TheNewHuntersGuide
It won't be long for you!
You are a smart, healthy young man. Keep strong on your path of enlightenment, it's the ones that see through the manipulation that will be the fathers/mothers of the renaissance.
Beautiful conversation. Love that hoodie. It’s inspiring to see you being so dedicated to live your truth in this way. So excited to see what you do in the future on this channel.
Old enough to be your Mom, and a mother of two men: i would be proud of you, if i was your Mom. Looks like your headed in the right direction.
The wide way is not the right way. The right way has always been narrow.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 speaking your mind and truth regardless what the ever changing society says. Truth is truth period. Great content
If I was to do it over again what you did would be in the plans. To me you did alright!
We have to speak what we strongly believe in.
Never pick a side, understand both sides, avoid them both. As for masculinity...I've been a forester for 25 years and have raised two kids propelry, none of that has anything to do with masculinity, that just another ridiculous concept or construct. As a forester I've met female tree surgeons who could out work most the men and they were no less feminine for it. Since I stopped worrying about masculinity and embrace my own so called feminine attributes of my character I'm no less of a man.
This has released from so much BS. The best thing you can do it's just disconnect from online opinions and focus on stimuli from books and read the ideas from serious thinkers of the ages from round the world, read western philosophy along side some Eastern. I've accepted I'll never be a serious thinker and I'll never contribute to any philosophy but I'm now aware that I should never follow any singular trail of thought or regurgitate any modern idealism of how others should live thier life...that's dangerous for society.
Nice videos on how to get off grid though, that's a noble pursuit my friend.
Build a base, mothball it and then go travel and see how folk really live.
Great job sharing. So, how did you find your off grid? I keep looking.
Funny you say you only trust those close, but your putting so much out there for all to see.
Looks like gold to me
follow your heart. Stay real. I enjoy the videos
You're a good man. Proud to have you as a friend
superb and you have done the right thing . im in the uk and im prepped ready .
I think the place you are living in, you are inevitably going to meet up with a variety of philosophies. You'll be a good man if you keep an open mind. Good luck with your relationship.
you take care be safe and have a good day
I’m encouraged by much of what you have shared!
Good luck with everything. Be careful.
Great videos
I'm about to do this but I only got 20k saved up I gotta get land and build or buy a cabin thinking a 16x40 shead I want this lifestyle but nervous about making the jump
We All dream.of what you're doing.. you are very fortunate.
For me the whole point of living rural in the sticks is to be alone with no people around. You have neighbours either side of you close just like in the suburbs sort of defeats the point doesn’t it??
What an inspiration..i agree with everything you say!!
Cold weather is the perfect place. Better than burning/sweating to death, and it's easier to stay warm than to stay cool. I don't know many women who would go for that secluded off-grid lifestyle. But when you find that special woman, don't chase her away. 😂
It is paid for, yours, and an earnest way of living!
We’ve learned so much from you too man. So grateful to have you as our friend. You are the yin to our yang 😜

preach
Can you put some new stuff on?
Couldn't have said it better myself, We live in a town called Paducah when I first moved here it was out of my hands completely Long story short what used to be a slow town just back in 2015 has now become corrupt so it seems and congested. I didnt stay here for that after i got out but now I feel we are "stuck" here. I talk to alot of people and what irritates me the most is most say "well what can we do" what irritates me even more than that is,,, I Do NOT have an answer Bro! Connect with me I follow you now and I want you to follow me back,, Thanks
Yep i say the way it is and if they dont like it then they won't be back and you cant help that some hate the Truth but thats on them man its not easy to be honest in life but beats be a lien dishonest no good for anyone ur ur self & id say ur on the right track so just be the best you that you can be and let the rest worry about them selfs
You are right man, you are not alone... Have more people that does not accept society and how things is so wrong, just need to keep positive, and find the way to navigate .. happiness is the end goal..
Love the channel. Connected with alot that you had to say
There's nothing controversial about your statements, even though I disagree with your gender/abortion perspectives. Opinions are good. I appreciate opiniated folk. It produces conversations, it's better than letting media decide for you. A lot of people are lacking individuality and accountability. Buying a cabin in the woods is the antithesis of that. I really dig what you have going on over there and I'll be following what you share about your journey.
If people are 'offended' by something you say, but can't still be your friend, then they are not your friend. We all have different opinions, but it shouldn't be a reason to not like someone....
You're a smart young man.
Don't listen to the naysayers. They are probably scared and weak. You're a strong and smart person for going with your gut.
My dream has always been to live of grid ,I'm a plumber know electrics self efficient and love to invent things ,there is too much catastrophes in this world ,I know we have to have and make growth for us and the universe but there are so many bad things in this world that it is impossible to run away from it ,so yes I totaly get you man ,I think the same way but I'm 55 now and I just want to live spiritualy with nature don't have to answer to anyone only just to jesus Joshua God and all living things that live with and around me and no people I'm quite happy to live by my own and interact with people when ever it's needed.
oregon?
at least you had your grandparents helping you...juss sayin
I liked your videos.
But my challenge to you is if you are pro life what are you doing to help the almost 500,000 children in foster care in this country.
To make a difference.
It is a challenge to all out there.
Foster to adopt.
Be a CASA advocate.
Mentor.
Volunteer.
Build beds for kids.
And so on
Life continues after birth.
Looks so cozy!
dUUDE I TOTALLY GET THIS!!!! i AM 54 YRS OLD AND AM TRAPPED IN THE SAME WORLD U ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!BUT i SAY NOTHING BECAUSE I DONT WANT TO MAKE WAVES!!!!BUT I AM A TRUMP SUPPORTING MAGA ALL OF THE WAY TO THE MOON AND BACK!!!!BECAUSE I KNOW HE HAS OUR BEST INTEREST IN HIS HEART!!! THERE YA GO!!!
Jesus is the truth, if you're searching for The Truth. He said: I am the way, the truth and the life. He is the only way to the Father, and there is no other way. Search the truth, Jesus.
Amen! Like the Bible says in Numbers 32:23 Be sure your sin will find your out. Great video
Its interesting to see that most of the things you talked about in the video sound quite similar as subjects in the Bible. It makes clear that a good relationship with Jesus and family is very important. It seems that the world is becoming increasingly more satanistic and the end times are coming closer. I hope that Diego and everyone reading find Jesus.
