You got this, bro!

Its all about keeping a positive mindset through the process. You're going through an experience, and that experience doesn't define you or make you less of a person. Use this time to learn, grow, connect with yourself and nature. You'll come out of it appreciating having gone through it. Much love friend

Hi man. I can give you a few suggestions regarding tent life: I usually cover up the tent with a green tarp in summer, and a white one in winter to insulate the tent. Items I had when I was a tent person, was a camp bed, an inflatable mattress, an ordinary sleeping bag for covering the mattress, and a -50°C sleeping bags, and a foam pillow. I suggest you camp away from beatened paths, because some jerks can destroy your installations. I had two bikes, a green one for summer time, and a white mountain bike for winter, with a baby carriage to hook up and bring things to the camp. I also made myself a lance with a big kitchen knife on a perch ( an old rake handle in my case ) for protection. I also had an axe to chop some fire wood, and I had made myself a covered fireplace with rocks and argile with moss, in order to hide the glare from on passers. It's like you never know. You need the place to stay secret otherwise, you might come back to see that all is gone, or burnt, or whatever. Some people are plain STUPID.

Years ago I found myself homeless I had a choice it was either a city park bench or a camp in the woods I chose to go camping I found many ways to survive by thinking things through and coming up with a solution for any problems I had to deal with a good example was when winter was right around the corner I needed to find a way to heat my tent and insulate it better so after giving it some thought I found a solution I went on a scavenger hunt in the woods around me and I got lucky thrown over a hill from times gone by was a few iron pipes along with other junk the iron pipes happened to be exactly what I needed to heat my tent I already had a shallow fire pit about 6 ft from my tent so I dug some shallow trenches from the fire pit to underneath the tent floor after laying the iron pipes in the trenches I covered it up with river pebbles when there's a fire in the fire pit it heats the iron pipes up and then I was getting radiant heat through my tent floor I covered the outside of the tent with sleeping bags and tarps which I supported with ropes I was always toasty warm in the winter time I never had a cold night or day this is just one example of a way I found to survive but there were many other ways I came up with to survive

[@lessthanahome]

Thats wicked smart. We just used propane lanterns. We had jobs so luckily we were able to buy things we needed. During winter wed go as far as boiling water and putting in glass bottles, put them in our blankets at night when the lights went off

I love this❤️ I’m a young man like you working in the food service industry also. The town I live in is small but there is a lot of forest area and trails. I live in my car or tent while working in the spring and summer. I used to rent, but honestly the thought of knowing that your landlord has all the say and power sucks. He was always watching me. I need to feel free and sometimes living this way is the only way to be free.

Less Than A Home or you can look online for intentional communities. People are willing to share land rights in exchange for help with chores, building, solar skills, etc. That’s sort of what we have in mind for our property near the Ozarks. I will live in my really old, sort of remodeled camper at Hobo Site #1. It will end up being a goat/rabbit/bee farm but “farm” isnt a good term. It is wild, forest-type land with fresh water creeks.

Yeah this is probably going to happen to me and my mom at some point and i am afraid. being in a tent in summer might be ok but the winter................OMG! we are supposed to have below 0 weather tonight so yeah.

I truly hope the best for you and yours. I hope you’re in a better place in life now

[@user-cf2nl8rp8r]

How can live there and nobody kick you out? Im curious because if you are not the owner on the land is against the law and I would love to live in similar way or even start a sustainable community😊

How do you deal with winter?

[@anonuser260]

I just turned 17 and I am thinking about living in a wild nature far away from people. I want to save up some money so I can move to Norway because of the camping laws there ( Camping in Poland is painful )

[@lessthanahome]

With some planning and starting funds you could live a really fun life out there!

[@svelanikolova5776]

Stock up on seeds and potatoes,change your camp far away from 5 g towers. Turn off all tech now. Get yourself extra socks jacket shoes. Very tough times ahead. You are very blessed because now the change God brought in your life has prepared you

I did this for a whole winter in NJ , and than the following summer in NY and it was definitely a lot of ups and downs during that time. The winter is obviously rough being outside for months at a time but it taught me alot.

How can you be there so many days and nobody kick you out? Is rare...

How do you get 3/4 tub full of hot water? Where do you get the hot water?

[@lessthanahome]

We had a Colman camping stove, wed heat the water on that. More often than not if it was bathing or washing the water wasnt very hot lol. Wed collect rain water and also just refill the gallon jugs previously purchased down at the store. I'm planning on a more comprehensive series now that I'm on the other side
