This is where I live, join me on the blog to learn more:
Living alone in the Northern Ontario Bush as an experience of life. I exist without conveniences such as running water or indoor plumbing. I fire up a generator now and then mainly to get onto the internet. Throughout the year I have to chop about 30 cords of wood to keep warm. Life here is great!
I wished to acquire the simplicity, native feelings, and virtues of savage life, to divest myself of the factitious habits, prejudices and imperfections of civilization…. and to find, amidst the solitude and grandeur of the wilds, more correct views of human nature and of the true interests of man. The season of snows was preferred, that I might experience the pleasures of suffering, and the novelty of danger.
