I always been an urban dweller, but ever since I was I an adult and married, I was interested in the off-grid/self sufficient/homestead life. In this book, 'off grid' means not being hooked up to any municipal utility, such as electric, water, etc.
At first, I thought u just need some chickens and a few solar panels and boom.. u are living off grid. well, i guess its not quite that easy or simple.
so here are many reasons why one might choose to live off grid and I just wanted to note them down here..
it makes u self sufficient (u worry about urself)
its sustainable
u rely on renewable energy
environmentally responsible
appreciate and closer to nature
it makes u to be more physically active
very rewarding
more activity, less stress
get out of consumerism rat race
grow and harvest own food.. more healthy
fresh air
build ur own stuff
independence
peaceful, quiet, calm
and don't for the CHICKENS!!
