198|From Firefighter to Freedom: A Story of Healing, Adventure & Self-Discovery

The main thing I do that's unique is now I'm going on nine years.

I've been wandering migrating with the seasons and living off grid in my RV by myself.

So I literally let the weather tell me where to go.

So when it's hot, I go north or go high in elevation.

And when it's cold, I go south.

And I meet the most amazing people because I don't enjoy campgrounds.

So I'm set up for living off grid with solar and a bunch of other things.

And so I usually live far out in the middle of nowhere in nature, happen upon the most incredible people and the most unbelievable places.

And yeah, so that's what I'm up to.

So you like choose a place and then you just stay there for a while?

You know, it doesn't feel like I choose, but I eventually get to places and sometimes I get to a place I'm like, nice, and I might stay a few days or one night.

And then sometimes I roll up somewhere and I'm just like, oh, my gosh, this is heaven on earth.

And sometimes there's rules like a lot of national forests.

You know, there's the two week limit.

So after two weeks, you have to move on.

And in some places don't.

I found myself in places where I just Like there was one place where the nearest grocery store was a four hour round trip drive.

It wasn't that great of a grocery store.

It was more like a really high class convenience store.

And I'm like, it's not worth the four hours or the diesel.

So I decided just to stay there as long as I could and survive on what food I had.

And I lost a lot of weight and just enjoyed one of the most incredible places I've ever been.

But yeah, I do crazy stuff like that too.

But I find somewhere really nice.

I love that.
