Welcome to the Homestead Blog Hop!
Happy Mid-week!
I’ve been in the Off grid mindset. Working to compile the reasons that we live off grid in our family.
I know we are in the minority. It’s not something we really set out to do, but just the best option for where we live.
I haven’t done a lot of blog posts on off grid living, but I’ve written a few.
Aunt Flo Comes to the Homestead—Dealing with Off Grid Periods
Three Years in an Off Grid Camper
Ten Essentials for Your Off Grid RV Homestead
Living Off Grid—what does that mean?
This has come to mind as I’ve been shooting my next YouTube video. I’d actually forgotten some of these posts.
We do live off the grid. It’s been a journey, but for us, it’s been worth it. We’ve learned so much!
One good place to start is education. Learn from many sources.
I like this book, Prepper’s Long-Term Survival Guide: Food, Shelter, Security, Off-the-Grid Power and More Life-Saving Strategies for Self-Sufficient Living (Books for Preppers), focusing on LONG-TERM solutions, while pursuing an off grid lifestyle.
This book, Going Off the Grid: The How-To Book of Simple Living and Happiness , is where we are at–pursuing simple living and happiness. Isn’t that everyone’s goal?
Start learning. Maybe you’ll decide to move towards a more sustainable life too! Just make small steps.
I’m looking forward to finding out what everyone has to share this week.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful week!
Laurie
