RE: Admiring Without Desiring

in Inner Blocks3 years ago

I would love to go to an off-grid situation if we are able to have it set up properly. I've been watching for a few years this fantastic show on American television called Homestead Rescue. It's amazing! I've learned so many things about living off grid and homesteading but it's definitely quite challenging if you don't have some good initial setup going for you.

The neighborhood certainly does look nice but to me, I would like to think that it's nice to be there but I don't love being on-top of each other like that. I want space! My wife however has her limits lol so it's definitely a balance. She wants to be near people more than I do but not in a manner like that in England. Thankfully we can agree on that lol

😁 That program sounds fantastic and informative. I don't watch TV, but I'd look to see if I can find anything online. Always something to learn and it could give me ideas for something to do on a much smaller scale.

I totally get what you mean about being on-top of each other, that's one of the reasons why my husband and I prefer to avoid staying at marinas. We like to spot an idyllic area and claim it as our backyard for the night and then move on the next day. There are some stunning places that make you feel like you should not be there, and then some areas (we've been warned) you know for sure that leaving your boat unattended is not a good idea.

I think off-grid is internally satisfying, whether on land or water, static or mobile, and wish that some day you'll find the right balance of "something" for both you and your wife :)
Thanks for stopping by, have a nice day:)
