Fellow homesteaders!
I'm a 43m in Colorado and homesteading on 35 prairie acres adjacent to a river with mountain views. I'm building a passive solar home in a southwest style of my own design that uses the natural heating and cooling of the sun with all the modern conveniences. This winter I'm finalizing the drawings (prior drafter and engineering instructor). I would have liked to start this with a great woman, but during the covid era, made the land purchase and started. I live in my restored Winnebago RV, built most of a tiny home, fully fenced the property, and have a productive well.
Nothing excites me more than having solar, wind, and an intuitive home that has the lowest cost to run, while being comfortable and energy efficient. And the location of course makes a lot of sense if you enjoy the aesthetic and culture of the wild west while still being less than hour away from civilization. I nerd out on systems, and putting them together. I work on older vehicles and keep them running, but the build will have everything modern.
After my last relationship, I've realized I don't want to live this life on my own any longer. It's been a lifelong dream of mine to homestead, and sharing it and building a life together is becoming much more important to me and ideally us. Nowadays, everyone has their own lives half established already, and fitting those pieces together with everything going on is becoming increasingly more difficult to do.
Politically, I'm ideally a libertarian, and get along with everyone but the most cold hearted whatever side. I'm more into observing society from a distance, and not let the crazy effect me as much as possible. To be honest, I've lost a lot of faith in humanity, but keep my mind open to a woman who feels the same way. That we'll have each other no matter what. That we won't let social media, and the news cycle divide us. That we want to meet a life partner, and build a life together that's stronger than the hardest rock you've ever found.
