I, myself, have been experiencing the same rush of pent up emotions, wondering about different lifestyles, from a suburban southwest US perspective. Escaping a dull, half-fulfilled life in a corporate planned subdivision. I’ve done much research, posting, and tendril sending to settlements referred to as eco-villages, co-houses, etc. I’ve come to the pithy conclusion I am very unprepraed for such a life. As such, I am taking a long sabbatacle from the suburban doldrums, taking stock of my skills, and traveling solo, as lightly as possible. Living as a hunter gatherer, as we refer to them. A modern hunter gatherer. I have lived thusly, as a car driver, a restaurant afficionado, an art expert, a computer expert. And…I’ve just lost interest in living like that all of the time. Perhaps, after a long sojourn away from one’s everyday routine, one might find the answers one is looking for.
My advice.
