I need a 30-day vacation in some isolated location without any human sound.

It's a fact, every day tons of information, some unnecessary actions, gradual burnout. You want to build a hut in the forest: just you, nature and the universe, lazily watching you with one eye) Then you remember about salt and matches, and you realize that civilization can live without you, but you can't without it))

what do you mean? i could absolutely live without humans. I'd just take what I need and leave this part for those who actually like to be social

What I'm saying is that we can't completely sever the thread that ties us to civilization and live as hermits. The reason is banal - we have lost the skills necessary for survival in the wilderness. But of course, it is possible to minimize your contact with people and live in solitude.

Surviving alone is definitely more challenging than in a group. There are communities around the world that are autosustentable and only work for money to buy a few things from civilization but can live without. Incredible matches is not one, but salt and soap are.

We're talking about slightly different things. I emphasized survival in the wilderness: not in trailers, not in tent camps with relative amenities where you can leave the camp at any time. Imagine you found an abandoned cabin in the woods.And you have a relative stockpile of provisions/pharmacies/personal hygiene items. How long would you last? Good if you attended scout school as a child and remember how to carve fire and other skills.

Thank you, I really resonate with the theme of solitude and isolation. I am an ambivert, but my inner introvert periods are getting longer and longer. And you mentioned yesterday about some communities that live by this principle. And I would like to read about them, if you mind telling me where to look for this information, I would be grateful🙏

I have lived with the Q’eqch’i in Guatemala near Coban and went looking the Penan in Borneo (Malaysia) near Bario. Not really western communities that went “green” but autonomous people living (mostly) isolated. The mayans doing agriculture are easier to find as they are not moving every day as the Penan. It might take one or two months for them to accept you and you’ll have to contribute to eat. DM if you are really interested and I can give you more information (like a dictionary so you start learning their language beforehand).

Very different life styles, they have huge families and everyone contributes, they are always happy to help but have no word for “thank you” as it is not a favor but something that makes them all better, although they exchange doing things between families and share their excess to the ones that were less favorable.
