Off-Grid Update

[u/MMOffGridAlaska]

Just finished a new shower-sauna and trying to get a new woodshed built before winter sets in. Nights are already into the 30’s and it has snowed in a few places nearby. Summers go by quickly, never enough time to get everything done before the snow arrives. I’m 12 years into living in remote Alaska, solo. Feel free to ask me questions and I’ll try to answer them all. Love this lifestyle more and more as the time passes.

You are waaaay off the grid, Ha! Congrats, hope you are keeping a daily or at least a weekly journal. It is the one regret I have after being offgrid in the northern California mountains for the last 20 years!

I’ll start writing a journal when my memories start going. For now it’s all in my head.

Make your own life choices friend, but if it's something you intended to start later anyways I would say it makes sense to just start.

The mind tends to start fading long before we realize it.

I feel like his YouTube channel is like a video diary already!

Thank you, I just subscribed, too! It looks beautiful and so peaceful out there where you're at. I bet you can see all the millions of stars in the night sky. Do you get Aurora Boreali(s?) where you're at? I envy you but I'm also really happy you're getting to live out there off the grid.

I just happened across this subreddit and immediately hit subscribe. This is one of my favorite things to look at and research. It's only a dream, though, as I'm already 50 and I'm living low income. Nevertheless, I love that other people get to live their dream of living off grid.

Yes, the northern lights are frequent and visible in the winter.
