I’m new here but figured I’d try. It’s hard to date when in the back of your mind you know what you truly want in life may not match with most people. They like cities and fancy things but I yearn to get back to nature and do things naturally, even if it is the hard way. I want to labor for myself and not my corporate masters….



Update June 1, 2023

I do apologize for not seeing all the responses. I guess I gave up looking. No matter, I’m still in Arizona working and saving for the future. I think I want to stay in Arizona because I really love being connected to my family now but Arizona I large with lots of cool mountains to live by. I’ll try to check in more often. If you message me, it helps so much for me to see you in a picture. Looks isn’t all that matters but it’s scary to not even see the person behind the message.

I don’t have any set and fast requirements because life is hard to predict and so I must be flexible. Ideally it’s not dangerously excluded from civilization with some decent creature comforts that I see are possible for others living off grid. Everyone has their own implementation of it because it works for them. At the minimum, I’m no longer living in a big city and dependent upon big city jobs to sustain me.

Update on June 2021:
Still looking to share that dream 😊
I spent a year building up my savings but feel I need a heck of a lot more before I take the plunge if I’m all alone at it. So I’ll keep working on my learning of skills and I’m sure one day I’ll connect with the right fella.

Hello,
I’m new here but figured I’d try. It’s hard to date when in the back of your mind you know what you truly want in life may not match with most people. They like cities and fancy things but I yearn to get back to nature and do things naturally, even if it is the hard way. I want to labor for myself and not my corporate masters.

Yes I will someday be forced to go it alone if I never meet anyone like minded. But I sure do hope he is out there! Until then I’m practicing my skills at home and soaking up all the knowledge I will need one day out there in my off-grid home.

Are you within a reasonable age of me? Age is not an issue for me unless it is over a decade apart. Then it may be a bit hard to bridge that gap. Obviously chemistry is important too. Most importantly, I need someone who can capture my mind and my heart and will not be quick to ruin something that can take a long time to grow. I am looking for the distance and want it to last.

Hope to hear from anyone even for a word or two of encouragement. Greetings from Arizona!
