    I like how you leaned on "where I was BORN" so that the comments don't become a whole "why did you move there?" festival.

      But it's more interesting when you say you moved there. Like yeah, when you are born there, you get used to it, but actually moving there, requires a reason and it's more meaningfull. Not that this is any critique to the creator, she can't change it. I don't understand what you mean by "why did you move there - festival"

      @@rchaelk2319 what I meant was that if she'd not said she was native to the area, the comments section would become a free-for-all of people wagging their fingers saying "you shouldn't have moved there then." 2 thousand other people understood it, but I miss the obvious regularly so here's the reason I said it.

    Hello, i live in rural outback Australia and we live a very self sufficient lifestyle, if we don't go and pump water, we don't have water, if we don't go fishing/hunting we don't have food.
    We have such a close community that all cares for one another. My children are their children and their children are mine.
    Seeing how you live similarly to me, but just opposite ends of the temperature scale makes me realise how lucky we are to experience this life. ❤

    What’s the craziest and weirdest thing you’ve seen out there? I’ve heard many stories and accounts of people going missing. Do you hike alone and what do you bring ( definitely a locator tracker) 😅, good snacks, solar charger, etc! Beautiful tho!
