First time posting here! (So if I got the wrong board, please do correct me)

I have some sort of dream for my future self.

I want to live for a long period of time (4-6 years) in a private cabin built by myself, noting that it should hold at least 4 people (Wife and 3 kids, maybe 5) all the while being excluded enough in nature so that you can hunt and for my kids to grow up far from the destructive force that is mass media/technology.

I know far eastern Russia is a good candidate since it has vast secluded places, but I made this post to see your opinions on location and if it is actually possible to do.

(Obviously me and my wife would have extensive education and practice on guns, medicine, farming and hunting.)

i wanted to do that too

but doing such a thing without God in your heart will bring you all into depression at best

pretty often people take their wifes into forest and then they cry about not being able to meet their friends and other crap

you need to be a strong man

Orthodox Christianity is the way

God bless!

hope you will do it

i have a some properties near my capital city

when i finish prepare myself better i will probably do it

all i need is my wife and a church less than 100km away from my cabin

I don't have much outdoors experience, but I know there is still a lot of opportunity for freer living closer to the US. I remember reading about an American who moved into a cabin near the Manicouagan Reservoir in Quebec for at least a decade.

Avid survivalist from the Nordics who lived in Ireland for a few years. There's not really much you can do to be honest. It's at best a "controlled simulation" of a sort. People everywhere and no real wilderness. But you can still go out and have the outdoor experience though.

Down in the south, the US military started doing these retarded ops (look of operation big buzz/big itch, there was a couple and I can't remember them all) where they would dump a metric fuckton of insects (like mosquitos, etc) for biowarfare tests or some shit. Long story short, they farmed up a shitton of insects and started dumping them everywhere. Thing is, they didn't die off or disappear, so some areas are still completely fucked because of it.

What I'm basically trying to say is that in some places, it's a lot worse now than it used to be.

Also, it's a lot warmer now than it used to be, so insects of more active. But fuck Canada and the arctic plains…….you fuckers have some seriously out of fucking control bugs flying around.

The idea about some people being less prone to bugs bothering them interests me. My father's side of my family seems to be impervious to it and so am I. My brother however seems to attract the fuckers. I'll be sitting pretty and fine watching him get eaten alive across the campfire. I was always told that it eating tons of garlic, which is something I do, makes your body odor repel bugs though, not necessarily genetics. Has anyone done any research on this? Anecdotally it seems to me like a common knowledge thing that some people just don't get bitten a lot and that makes it seem odd that I've never heard of a study about it.

Herbs.

In Germany we have the Spitzwegerich((Plantago lanceolata) and the Breitwegerich (Plantago major) that is used against Insekbites, for Wound disinfection and against Blisters by Wanderers.

Cinnamon, Lavender, Melissa, Peppermint, Sandalwood, Rosemary, Cedrus, Carnation, Lemon grass, Pelargonium and Nimtree, they all keep mosquito and other bugs away to different degrees.

If that doesn't help, you can always cover your body with mud.

Sweat, Salt, Perfume and dark Clothes all attract mosquitos and they are the most active during the twilight hours.

I have discussed this while in SE-Asia; with students from various parts of the middle east, africa, asia, etc. It is commonly held that some people will get bitten and others not due to different blood and scent, some people are preferentially sought out by mosquitoes. This was very evident during a trek with a group from all over the world. Some would constantly be swatting mosquitos- and others would not even get a a single bite.

According to some, O type blood is preferred; I didn't see much to confirm or deny that. To me it doesn't sound implausible that differences in blood cells - such as shape & surface proteins would make some more easily digested by bugs, than others.

Another interesting point- immune response differences were notable too. There was variance in size of inflammation, duration of inflammation, how reddened etc the bite site was. Some people for instance had swelling after a day, others had a little raised bump that went away after an hour or so.

> In addition, the mosquitoes that annoy you a lot here, the ones with stripey abdomens are recent migrants from Asia, so the natives wouldn't have to deal with them.

Am I the only one who finds them less annoying? They're more likely to bite, and they breed more easily, but they're also much less likely to come indoors, much easier to spot and swat because of the stripes, and their bites are much less likely to cause inflammation.

Hey /out/

I'm a student living in Melbourne Australia. I'm in my final year of high school and I've been looking to the future. I've decided that I don't want to go to University straight away (if at all) and I want to do a sort of money burning Supertramp, into the wild adventure thing. I probably won't burn my money but I do want to disappear for a bit, see where the road takes me.

I was wondering if you guys had any tips/tricks for backpacking/being homeless.

I fucking hate the city and I need to get out, I just want to live simpler and see what I can find.

Hey it's OP. I'm out of highschool now. I went to uni. I hated it.

I hate almost everyone around me. I'm sick of "success" I'm sick of people, I'm sick of "power" I'm sick of money, I'm sick of temptation but mostly I'm sick of everything being so fucking easy. Having easy food and easy transport has made me fat and lazy. I want to get to the roots of humanity, The roots of being a living creature.

Nothing makes me happy anymore except when I'm out hunting/camping with my dad. Which rarely happens because he's fat and lazy as well.

Using a hammock while /out/ is one of the best things I've done for overall enjoyability since I started hiking.

Pic realted is the setup I use, Warbonnet Blackbird with Mamajamba tarp. Pic is not mine since weather is shit and I dont have enough trees to hang mine right now

I've been using a Hennessy Expedition A-sym for the past few years, and it's been serving me well. Had a squirrel chew some of the mosquito netting on my last trip of the summer though, and I need to patch it this winter. Knew a guy who had used his hennesy for over 10k miles of trips, they're good quality, if a little more mainstream.

My only problem with my hammock is the A-sym fly, it works but there have been nights when I've wished for a 6 point fly so I could have 4 pegs, and therefore less rain blowing up inside my hammock and getting me wet. That can be avoided by making sure your fly is set up properly (and weighted: protip, a full nalgene with a beaner makes a GREAT weight for a corner of your fly!) but a 6 point would allow me to be less diligent about setup.

Pic related: best picture I've taken of my hammock.

Why is star gazing so based?

its looking at natures ultimate beauty.

ever since man became sentient we gazed up to the stars.

i think it has to do with the ultimate goal of human progress.

you could argue human culure had its roots in stargazing because every society knew the movement of the stars (planets) and the moon.

thats why i love "2001 a space odyssey".

its a pity less and less people value space exploration and its even more a pity light pollution makes it near impossible to watch the stars in many areas

so how do you plant them? buy a tree at a gardening store or get a sapling from the woods or do you start with a seed?

Hey /out/

I usually come here to lurk and learn stuff about outdoor living since I'm a big fan of being outside and working.

Me and some people are currently working on a project where we are setting up a crowdfunded at the moment, to buy land somewhere in Canada (location/country not 100% sure right now but Canada seems like the best option right now since land is very cheap).

The idea is to build up a self-sustainable eco-friendly village out in the open where we can hunt/fish/work/build, well just do things that we enjoy doing outdoors. We have people with various skills and backgrounds and have been planning/working on this idea for over 5-6 months now.

Well so you get an idea of what you can do there: The plot we're currently looking at is in Ontario, Canada. Its 65 hectares (650'000m2) of land and costs only 16'000 USD and you can pay 7'000 and then 200 dollars per month until the whole 16k is paid!

It's not to far away from a pretty big town and as I said, outside in the open near a river and between 2 larger lakes.

This is a great place to experience canadian wildlife and beautiful landscapes so that's why i came here.

Would there be any people interested in join in on the project/help funding ? I'm not asking you to come along and live over there but it could be a great place if you would like to spend time each year out in the free (or a great getaway if the west turns to shit hehe). Well if you want more info on the project or just talk some about it I'll lurk the thread and could provide some sort of chat platform!

Thanks!
