Great video Diego, I should talk louder. I'm 82 actually

When your employer asks you where do you see yourself in 5 years:
-
This guy is an inspiration. Imagine the life you could live living this way. It would be a lot of work but you would be healthy mentally and physically. Truly awesome.
-
82 and still living off grid. Truly inspirational.
-
Old Al is living the dream, total freedom, no worries and at 82 he's running strong. Congrats!
-
His laugh is wonderful. A small snicker and a smile is all you get. I also love how he said "I have a hard time throwing anything away" but he doesn't hesitate at all to give it to someone who needs it. That speaks volumes alone.

I'm 53 living in London, worrying about interest rates, job security and everything else in between, then I see this Guy....this Guy has all the answers. I salute you Sir.....👏👏👏👏
-
Imagine how well this guy must sleep with that calm waterfall sound going on these guys are very gifted
-
Beautiful. He's living lightly on the land and bothering no one. May he be there for many more years.
-
Al is awesome, imagine being in that good shape at 82?
-
He has the life most of us wish for and dream of, but few get to live. Good luck and wishes for many more years of peaceful life in your home.

Absolutely fabulous. Life was supposed to be like this. Even as a child I wanted his life. My brother and I when we were 8 and 7 ran away from home to go to our family property in oklahoma and live in the woods. We made it 2 miles before a neighbor told our parents they saw us on the hiway. If I'm lying I'm dying. Ironically just a year later we moved up there on that mountain and "camped" for 9 months while our parents built our cabin. In our 50's now we still consider that time the best in our lives. Our father still regrets letting that property go. And life goes on. Thanks for sharing this gem.

Al is a great friend to have, you are lucky. He is definitely living the highlife…
-
Al is one cool cat. He is a salt of the earth guy with a heart of gold. You can feel a peace and coolness about him through the screen.
-
The basics of living. No Drama! Love it.
-
Pure gold having a property with a stream and spring of running water.
-
The fact Al was able to climb to the top of that mountain is awesome and inspiring.
-
This is such a beautiful story. I think Al is also really blessed with how things have turned out, having every source of water go by his house, not having any trees ever fall onto his house, only ever seeing a bear ONCE in 40+ years of living there. He truly has a peaceful place he can call his own

My best friend grew up in a hydro off-grid house. Everyone loved going out to his place for sleep-overs. Fast forward to 22-23 years later, he's just out of college, and his parents move into a beautiful new house in town. Then proceed to tell him about how wonderful and convenient life is. He was pretty pissed. Lol
