Do you have any savings? If you're only going to remain alive another 5 years, just find somewhere cheap as fuck to live. If you're in eastern yurop then go for India, China or some african shithole. Make a budget to last you 5 years, take drugs, fuck all sorts of aids infested trash and generally abuse yourself.

There is plenty of middle of nowhere in Europe. For us here in the US it would be Alaska IMO, but in Europe, couldn't you just hit up the northern end of Norway/Sweeden/Finland? Cheap can be a relative term. I imagine you can get swaths of land for next to nothing, but survival out there would be a balance between infrastructure and know-how. I mean how out in the middle of nowhere would you want to go?

I liked Scotland, the highlands were spectacular and the pop,e were nice (to me), but it's too cold for me and I like a little civilization. I grew up in Southern California, so if I was going to run away, If I had money I would pick someplace with some serious old school architecture. Castles, cathedrals, ruins, cobblestones. That shit turns me on. If I was doing it on the cheap on this side of the world, I would just travel south until I found a nice place to settle. Hitting the Mexican pyramids, Costa Rica, Belize, Medallin, and Cuzco on the way down.

Scandi countryside here. Indeed there's still large areas of "nowhere". Some years ago you typically paid $7k/hectare (about 2 acres) of forest and double for a hectare of fields, in the south the price doubles. In Sweden you're allowed to go whereever the fuck you want in the woods without owning anything, you're allowed to pick berries and stuff too and you're allowed to camp in one spot for 3 days or something like that, So technically you could just wander those woods for as long as you wanted living off roots, buds, berries and plants, there's survival classes to take for it.

What do you do when a bear attacks you, defend with a toothpick?

>>35117737
That's really fucking cool. I imagine there are also rules for waste and care for the environment?
We have a big homeless problem here, and I know it doesn't seem all that relevant, but I know there are people who want to live "off the grid" and I respect that, or the desire for a nomadic lifestyle. If there are resources in the wild, like wild growing food, or plenty of game, as long as people clean up after themselves, I don't see that there's any reason why people can't roam the wilderness having adventure.

You couldn't even allow the guy a knife and a large burning log?

That's islamophobic and homophobic, respectively.

>he's not strong enough to crack open a bear

What kind of a faggot are you?

For real tho, you can own and buy firearms but you need to go through some tests and classes to qualify for owning one, or you can build something yourself or mayhap buy one illegally, or just bring your standard katana and nunchucks.

Aye, one is not allowed to litter and overall it's a pretty cool thing, the rules are pretty clear, unfortunately a lot of people don't give a shit. Some time ago a nearby estate had a caravan with gyppos in their woods, they left tons of trash and had cut down several trees, dug a huge shitpit etc and I hear it was massively disgusting, personally I wouldn't mind if that privilege was abolished.

Maybe an idea would be to have a huge government owned area that allowed squatters rights.

I'd probably go to Romania or Estonia

What's your financial situation, OP?

Unless we know how much you have saved up, there's no way anyone can give you real advice.

I'd suggest using a site like numbeo.com to price out different options. But living for 5 years on what I think is a pretty slim nest egg may not be possible, even if you lived in a slum in africa.

I'll go some a couple of kms away from my parent's village so I can see them once a week. Middle of nowhere, abandoned farms, villages, nothing is to sell because people died and nobody cared. Just make a house yours.

Is there any place cheap for a single person to live. I'm talking around $400 rent. I don't want to get a room in some person's house or their basement for $400. I'm talking about your own place for that cheap. Seems hard when you have no job experience to live off of a minimum wage job.

It really depends where you're at. Pricing varies widely across the country.

But, if you have a job, I'd recommend looking into buying rather than renting. It sounds crazy, but it often is cheaper, especially with a low downpayment loan. Here's an example:

https://www.redfin.com/TN/Memphis/2190-Hillside-Ave-38127/home/60731946

It rents for around 725 but if you buy it with say 3% down ($1260) it's less than $200 / month for the mortgage. And, it's a 3 br home, so rent one of the rooms out for a few hundred bucks, you're making money.

There is insurance and taxes you need to pay too, so it might be an extra hundred a month for that, but that still is just $300.

Of course, Memphis is one of the most affordable cities in the US, so your area may differ. But if you're making min wage anyway, moving may be a better option than staying put.
