Man Shares REAL Experience Living Off Grid For 13 YearsThere are countless articles about off-grid living, but what is it REALLY like? The only way to know is to try it yourself. The next best option is to learn from someone who’s done it.

This video comes from the Exploring Alternatives Youtube channel and I found it very interesting. So many videos show a rosy picture of how wonderful it is to be off the grid, but this is much more realistic. You can watch it below.
