      Being alone is wonderful, for about 14 days, unless you are completing a project to keep yourself busy. Filming is a bit of a project, but building a cabin or similar is what really keeps one too busy to bet bored. A dog alone is not sufficient, for most people...

    Word of caution: Removing the lock from the hasp leaves you open to intruders or worse. You can be trapped inside with the use of a stout stick in place of the lock. It is better to latch the lock in place so that the hasp can not be placed over the loop.

    I believe your journey, called living, is on the right track. I spent a lot of time in from the early 1960's to the mid 1970's experiencing the wonders of nature. Sometimes, it was with nothing more than a packing blanket, a coffee pot, a military mess kit, a pocket knife, matches, a hunting knife and a compass, sometimes with more, sometimes with just the bare necessities. This included California, Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Nevada and Colorado for the most part. I did take my own family to experience some of the same, but outfitted much better for the kids sake, in the early eighties to late nineties. I learned to start a fire without matches or lighters, and for most wildlife, to keep a fire going all night for protection when camping (no tent). Disposal of food scraps and such would be buying it several meters for the campsite. I've had encounters with wildlife, such as rattlesnakes, black bears, brown bears including one grizzly up north, water snakes, coyotes, wolves, pumas (ie: mountain lions or cougars), a very angry California Spotted Owl that actually attacked me, and run ins with bats in Arizona. I'm gonna be 70 in a couple months Wish smart phones were around back in the day because I could have had videos that would probably have gone viral. I could write about this forever, but of course I won't.
    I will simply say that to see the coastal areas, especially where the forests meet the seas, the sequoias towering so high it's almost unbelievable; the desert in the middle of the night allowing you to see the milky way and stars that seem so close you feel like you can almost reach out and touch them, canyons, waterfalls, caves, various types of forests, plains and geography...it all makes me realize that we are insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but at the same time just how much we are a part of it all. We, as humans for the most part seem to believe ourselves to be separate from nature, but when reality hits, it's awesome to realize that we are very much a part of nature. Oh, I should clarify that the owl that attacked me was likely protecting a nest. When I decided to circumvent the direction I wanted to go, the attacks stopped.

    The master of living alone in the American wilderness definitely goes down to Dick Proenneke. Almost 30 years (and he only started his adventure at around the age of 50).
    Plus he filmed much of it. Check out his documentary, it's amazing.

      @user-sk7zc1fc5u Před 9 měsíci +1

      I watched his documentaries and read all the books except for the long diaries he had but am now reading it, too. I even phoned the museum back in Iowa. I have been in places in Alaska a bit so I really enjoyed his life. I now live in what he would have called civilization, but most people would call the sticks. I have electricity but I can walk a hundred yards and then another few miles and not see anybody. And after a 6-mile drive, I can walk for over a hundred miles, rarely seeing a logging road until I get to the Bitterroot Valley in Montana. Yes, Dick was one of a kind. But I grew up in a vertical pole, log house my family and I built on an island in the mid to late 50's so I can relate.

      @@official-EvazuBeck- Is this really you? Some people are afraid of guns and wild animals. I'm afraid of computers and the internet. I did not grow up with them. I touch the wrong thing and everything goes away. I just got a flip phone two months ago. I can call but am still not sure how to receive a call. I have to drive a mile to get reception. There are about 2 places in this country that don't get good cell reception. I am in one of them. Good internet, though.
      Today I have been watching those many real estate videos of North Idaho. Too cold, a little radical for me, and too commercialized for me. I like places a little closer say to National Forest like where you were at Fox Creek, in Galatin NF. I went online and researched. Our problem, you and me, is that I am internet illiterate, and I respect both our privacies. Having a college degree from CWSU doesn't mean I know about computers and internet because that was not available in the 60's. I about gave you up but yesterday I was recalling that I have a good friend on the coast who I think is internet literate and I e-mail her fairly often, she and hubby currently living in the place where I grew up. Could she be a go-between of some sort? You're the internet savvy gal so you need to figure this out. If you are really Eva, you will want to find me. I have a daughter and her family in Eastern Idaho, but since she pretty much shunned me because I basically apostatized from her fundamental Christian belief, she is not in the picture. I'm as leery as you are about this, because I'm not eve sure you are really Eva. Do your research and try to find me, I guess. I have talked to people in person but I can see them.

    As a 30 yr old single mother to a 5 yr old, ive also realized i need another human to share happy times with. Im single for 4 yrs and the marriage was barely a relationship. Ive become a very interesting person with lots of hobbies and deep thoughts because of how much time i spend by myself. But ive also began realizing how lonely i am. How i have no one asking me how my day was. No one to go out with on weekends when its family time for everyone else. I need that in my life even if im totally ok being with myself. But sometimes its too much alone time if you know what i mean. I want to show someone all my happy places.....and i want to be someones happy place.

    My cabin in Sweden is much bigger, with electricity and cell service, but for the rest very similar to this cute cabin situation.
    Outhouse, no running water and surrounded by miles of forest.
    Still, I have to counsciously choose to disconnect my phone and reconnect with nature on a deeper level from time to time since the world can easily sneak in and claim my attention.
    My need for solitude is usually greater than that for human company and I can be happy for quite some time with my own thoughts and just following my flow, spending time with my dog and two cats.

    I've lived in a lot of places, including the interior of Alaska. One of my biggest regrets is not traveling and exploring more of the places I've been, from Egypt to Alaska. I did get out and enjoy being out, but not as much as I could and should have. Why I'm SW Texas near the border is another story, a bit of a love story in fact. But, that's another tale. I very much enjoy your approach to these adventures and the personality that shines through. No ego, no arrogance, no I'm the star. It's more of someone sharing discovery and adventure with friends.
    A few weeks ago I traded up to a 2023 Jeep Gladiator Sport. Upgraded tires and a few things. Hopefully, I'll get some adventuring in with a few close friends. Rigs need a name. I've always been a variation of Wolf. My road name when motorcycling was Iron Wolf. Among close associates (the only kind I really care about) I'm simply called Wolf. All that is leading to the naming of my Jeep. Jeep and I decided that in honor of you and Vilk and your adventures, as well as my long history of being a wolf, Vilk shall be its name. Wolf and Vilk. Let's see what we can get into. It won't be anything as remote and adventurous as you two, but we will be getting back to being out there again. So, if you are ever in the Val Verde/Kinney/Uvalde country area of Texas, give us a shout and we would love to share a meal.

    Love that you're quoting Thoreau! One of my favorite quotes of his likely will resonate for you, Eva- it's perfect for these beautiful moments in the wilderness:
    'But alone in distant woods or
    fields even in a bleak-- and to most cheerless
    day like this-- when a villager would be thinking of his inn--
    I come to myself-- I once more feel myself grandly related--
    and that cold and solitude are friends of mine-- I suppose
    that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get
    by church going and prayer-- I come to my solitary woodland
    walk as the homesick go home-- I thus dispose of the superfluous,
    and see things as they are, grand and beautiful-- I have told many
    that I walk everyday about half the day light-- but I think they do
    not believe it. I wish to get the Concord--the Massachusetts-- the America
    out of my head and be sane a part of everyday. I wish to forget a considerable
    part of every day--all mean--narrow--trivial men and
    therefore I come out to these solitudes where the problem of existence is
    simplified. I get away a mile or two from the town--into the stillness and
    solitude of nature--with rocks--trees--weeds--snow--about me--I enter some glade
    in the woods alone perchance-- where a few weeds and dry leaves lift themselves
    above the surface of the snow--and it is as if I had come to an open window--
    I see out and around myself...
    This stillness--solitude, wildness of nature-- is a kind of thoroughwort
    or boneset to my intellect--This is what I go out to seek--
    It is as if I always met in those places
    some grand, serene, immortal--
    infinitely encouraging though invisible companion--
    and walked with him.'
    Henry Thoreau

      Thoreau's cabin was only an hour or two walk from town and home cooking but he also explored the Maine woods with his Indian guide Joe. He went far enough to "suck all the marrow" and fill volumes with an inspiring transcendent view of the wild however relative. And he had 3 chairs in his cabin. One for solitude, two for company and three for society. Simplicity.

    Hello Eva I have watched a few of your videos and loved them all but I have to say this one touched me deeply. The idea of escaping into the woods sounds great but I agree that having someone to share it with would make it 100 times better. I retired 3 years ago I took a few short trips and now just got another full time job. I think I'm going about life all wrong. I need to do what you're doing...exploring the world. So anytime you want someone to hold the camera for you I'm in. That way you only have to cross the bridge once. Finding love is about finding a person you can share every dream with and every hobby with. Someone that you never want to be without, someone with the same passions in life and not falling into the normal everyday life most of us live. Remember when you feel alone all it take is to reach out to a fan and your not alone anymore.
