Does the modern nomad need to exist in the first place? Taking your money into an RV so you can guzzle gas on it, and just stream videos while you pretend to enjoy nature?

you can just exist in a remote place and not make videos too my friend. sorry that your understanding of what life outside a city looks like has been shaped by the internet instead of reality.

My rv doesn't move, i drive a smart fortwo and get 40+MPG

I have solar on my RV and don't use utility electrical. No propane appliances, heatpump hot water, and heat/cooling. Top rated efficiency washer and a heatpump dryer to go with it. Just because i want to be rural doesn't mean I'm wasteful.

I'm out here because it's the only place land is remotely affordable and I'm tired of renting. I saved up what i could, managed to get a great deal on 5 acres. And built up a sustainable rv to live in till i can build a house.

Supposedly there are plans for fiber to deploy in this area within the next 5 years. When that happens I'm all over it, i regularly go on hikes the trails out here in the mountains from old logging roads are amazing.

That doesn't mean i shouldn't be allowed some modern entertainment as well
