I just wonder how you afford to start this kind of project especially as the internet says he was working in a ship yard before (his position there is not disclosed). Buying land and securing planning isnt cheap. Im a joiner and would love to find a way to hide from the capilatist world and practice my trade in aid of myself and family but the cost to start is inconceivable to me, not with living costs as they are. As a working class lad i mean. Family money would be wonderdul and if i had it i would use it so i dont think we can hold it against him.

As someone earlier has stated, utube is now so informative. If one is not particularly 'gifted', the 'tube' is a good starting point. Nothing is impossible.

This is paradise living where nature shines in all of its glory. I am not there in person but by just looking and listening I feel such peace. Imagine no noise of city cars, buses, trains, people, and aircraft taking off. No GMO food to eat and no chlorinated water. I love it, love it, love it. I hope one day I can experience that kind of peace here on earth.

It really isn't 100% off the grid nor natural, no matter how hard you try at some point you depend on others for something and those services are rendered by no other than money, to get said money you need to do something that merits the people with money giving you money. Even the men of the mountains say this numerous times, despite being hermits they have to rely on society one way or another.

He really did a great job, and it shows how skilled and capable he is. But at the same time, he seems very weird and awkward, like something is not right with him. He is not the type of person, that most people would enjoy much to hang around, you know very socially awkward. I guess he is very introverted and does not feel comfortable communicating with other people. That is probably why he chose this solitary/isolated lifestyle in the first place. Most people do not enjoy/seek living alone in the middle of nowhere. They want to live with and around other people, like family and friends. He does not seem like the ordinary person. But this is not meant as an offense, just an observation. I respect his courage to build his life, the way he enjoys and wants, he did a great job at that. But it is definitely not my way. So to each his own.
