OFF GRID TENT LIVING | Base Camp Tour | Why I Chose this Life

- Check out my base camp setup while I begin building my Off Grid home and gardens. Base camp is simple and a little messy right now but, it's functional and serves its purpose as temporary living. This "Living Off Grid" journey is more than just escaping the system for me. It's a way to completely transform my life into a more holistic and natural expression of living. To inspire a closer living and connection with nature and my own human nature and to live happier and healthier. It's not just a physical journey but also a spiritual one.
Here are some links to the tent and wood stove I'm using. Please note, that I am NOT sponsored by these companies nor have any discount codes. I simply want to support the brands I'm actually using and having success with.

What kind of structure would you live in if living off grid? A shed-to-house, build from scratch, yurt, geodome, etc??
A yurt 🛖
I hope to one day build my own timber and stone yurt.
Hunni,I'm 62. My dream WAS, when I got my disability, I was gonna buy a lil piece of land,get a lil shed,and customize it myself. Solar,water catchment system, compost toilet, garden,chicken,goats....
THEN..... the govt decided I didn't have enough credits for disability. I'm def disabled,but I was 2 credits away. So,needless to say.....
All I wanted was to leave as lil footprint on this earth,as possible. Now I'm stuck.
Edit- you have beautiful eyes,btw,remind me of my deceased husband...😁
FREEDOM. PEACE. NATURE !
Going to sub !
I have thought yurt and also straw bale at one point. Being as I am a bit older now I plan to build my own stick built home. I don't want to have to redo anything once I'm in my 60's or 70's.
Your 40. But you look younger then that. Live your dreams. You only get one life to live. May God bless you ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 🙏🏼🏕️
Hello again Paul - I left a comment on your first video of the series about my 75 acres in North Ontario. Just stopping by to show support and to thank you for giving me some more confidence in what I am about to do. I just got myself a hot tent and am double, triple checking my list of gear.. Super excited to get started on this journey and it's incredibly motivating to see someone else living the way I plan to. I'll be here as your channel grows, as it definitely will, and can't wait to see the shed conversion. Looking forward to your next video. Cheers!
So far this has been the best journey and challenge I’ve taken. The smallest things even have the greatest rewards. Just making it one day at a time is a huge achievement. Thanks for the support. It’s much appreciated! You’re going to have the best time getting started. It’s challenging at times but absolutely worth it! 👍🏼🏕️🙏🏼
I personally think the life you have chosen is the way man was more intended to live.
Peace Love and Light to you
🙏 ❤ 🌞
I agree with 100%!
Your 25 year old dream is real now. That's a very good reason for you to be proud at this time. What continues will be the chapters of your new life, living the way you always wanted. Question...what wild animals roam around? Lol
Thanks! Deer, turkey, coyotes, owls, occasionally panthers.
Minimal dependencies, minimal dependents. Minimal possessions. This is freedom. Live your life.
Looks great! Enjoying how it’s all coming together! ❤🎉❤
This is the true meaning of living life to the fullest this is my dream to one day be free out in nature enjoying all the sounds of life and nature you have given me so much inspiration thank you so much much love ❤️

The last three videos you've posted have taken off. This is the way!
MY.DREAM.
I love your little 'blab' about making videos, we just recently started a YT channel and it's so true what you say (my husband does the editing), it is such a fun process to see the video materialise into the final product. Beautiful piece of land you have there!
We love the videos as much as you love making them. Keep ‘em coming woohoo
Thanks Lisa! 🙏🏼🌲
It looks like you're doing good. Wishing you all the best.
Appreciate that, thanks! 🙏🏼🌲
Looking forward to your build. I did one a few years ago never finished it completely but lived in it for about a year. The peace of it was amazing, sometimes it’s what the body,mind and soul needs.
Thanks, I appreciate the encouragement! 🙏🏼🌲
Really enjoying the series. Would you be able to get a time lapse of the stars at night? That would be amazing
Thanks! I’m working on getting some great shots of the night sky. It’s pretty incredible here!
Good luck work hard on your dream
Glad I found your channel. Excited to follow along with your journey off grid. We're hoping to do the same in the next couple years. I enjoy your Outlook on life. Cheers from Chicago!

Nice spot you got there
Thanks! It’s the perfect spot for me. 🙏🏼🌲
Bro you need a dog! Love this!
I also wondered how much land and where? Looks like Arkansas, Alabama, maybe Georgia? The scrub pines and sand look Ozarksy.
Hi from Michigan.

Wish all your dreams cone true !
Thanks for subbing!
Awesome! 👍😎🇨🇦
Thanks, glad you like it! 🙏🏼🌲
For more warmth I find putting a blanket over the mattress instead of a sheet keeps me cozy in winter. Try it and let me know what you think. Sara from South Africa🇿🇦
Yes! I have a sleeping bag on top of the mattress plus the second sleeping bag I sleep in with two blankets on top of that. I stay pretty cozy all night!
@livingoffgridwithpaul good luck and blessings
Congratulations on doing exactly what you want to do. There is nothing better in the world. I like your set up. It is a good start. My 2 cents? Skip the shed to cabin for one year. Upgrade to a large wall tent. Improve water infrastructure. And you need a better long term plan for disposing of human waste. A large hole in the ground will do for short term. Other than that? Long term, coming across humanure piles will become something that ruins your day.
A rigid shelter may actually be a disability. Depending on zoning and taxes, could result in more taxes, or require a permit. It is an avoidable expense. Could incur debt, or require monthly outlays of capital. And the money could be better spent elsewhere, such as water tanks, well pumps, solar, livestock, tools, etc. A large wall tent with a good stove is fine place to live. A bell tent is good enough for army life, but a wall tent is like a small house.
I’m definitely working on the long-term waste plan. 🌲
How big is your plot of land and what state are you in?
Where’s the tent from?
Good morning Master, i have a question. Can kali sticks be throwing weapons like nightwing. If it possible, then I want to learn some throwing techniques with the kali sticks.
Will your family ever move there with you?
What state is this in?
Where can I watch your Martial Arts videos?
On my “Kali Center” channel
Have you seen any wildlife?
Yes! So far deer, turkey, owls and lots of different birds.
