What do you do, exactly, to earn money for food/clothes in that lifestyle? That has always puzzled me
Whatever you want to do. Go spend a season helping out ona farm in Hawaii, then go help build an ecovillage in Australia, then spend some time walking around New Zealand washing dishes and bussing tables, then off to India where you’ll build rope bridges and tree houses for a sustainable community. After that, you can go to Thailand or Vietnam and teach English for a little while, before making your way into the Mediterranean and spending a year and a half on the island of Bozcaada helping an old man repair out building and herd goats.
That’s literally what my friend did for over 5 years after one day he just decided to leave and had just enough money for a plane ticket to Hawaii from San Diego. Everything else was work and accommodations he found along the way. The only reason he came back was because of covid, and now he’s an RN and makes a bunch of money and he hates his life and is in and out of rehab.
The general issue with this is the amount of people who can do this, is literally one in a million basically. And I mean that in that if too many people tried to do it. It would quickly become unfeesable due to lack of opportunities. Not will or skill or even money
This is a great example of the expection to the rule.
