Those are two very interesting responses with different approaches....for me consciously I wanted to leave a very urban environment away from a variety of toxic issues, pollution, overcrowding, noise, poverty, dependence on material conveniences, etc....living now in more rural setting, i'm becoming more an more aware about caring for our needs without relying on big industry to provide those conveniences and discovering that we can actually provide and work hard to do alot of things ourselves. The fact that Puna is more rural and people are forced to utilize resources more effectively was actually a very attractive opportunity to think about this type of independence on big brother....
When I do come here for good, my ideal would be to grow my own food, raise animals, draw my own power, recycle my own water, fertilize my land to become more fruitful and best share the resources that I hope to be blessed with others that may not have the same opportunities to become more self sufficient.....that seems like an ideal goal I would like to strive for and leave as a legacy to the world considering not too many have this type of opportunity.
