I have been saving for land and looking to meet a woman interested in homesteading. I have traveled a lot and want to build a permanent base to facilitate more adventures. I am 28 year old male and have found it's hard to use dating site or meet like minded woman my age in the society we find ourselves in currently. Would like someone that wants to build business and provide value to ourselves and excess to others. I love music and bonfires. Also would love to make new friends in the community here. I work a lot and used to homestead and miss being out in the woods. I wish you all a beautiful day!

Hey there, good luck. I am basically in the same boat. At the same time I've built up two permaculture homesteads by myself and realized both times that it is too much work to do alone, lol. I am looking to do it a third time but I like the warm tropical climate of Central Am. in particular Belize. At this point I hoping to meet people who might share the vision and have a means to financially support themselves to invest in property down there.  I figure helping each other is the best way to maximize one's effort in Sustainability and Wealth Equity. -Peace

Hey Ben,
A common "problem", if you will, for singles that own a homestead is finding that partner. When one lives the dream of a remote existence, meeting like minded people is tough.
Another issue I have experienced is that taking time away to travel and explore is complicated when you have livestock and a garden.
My current mission is to attract 2-3 other homesteaders to foster a Homestead Collaborative. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this with others. No better way to find the flaws in my thinking than to discuss it freely and openly.
JM
