I spent from May to November getting paid to live in a tent in Mendocino county. It was the most awesome experience being disconnected from everything. Getting dressed while laying down and then squatting to unzip tent is great physical exercise.

Women who say they refuse to sleep on the ground again is a frequent gripe by male hikers.

Air mattresses have improved tremendously in the last 40 years. I am always looking for a backpacking partner.

Where can I sign up? I need a reboot. Is there cancer treatment? I can go a month without. Why not? It might be best for me.

sounds like fun! I'm looking to transition to a career in the wilderness; I'm done with Social Work and ready to travel!

I'm really ready to escape. Too. Travel to anywhere.

@confidentrealm I'm getting a van and heading out this summer, starting as a sabbatical, but hopefully it will become more long term.

My first job in archaeology was nine months in a tent i central Arizona on the middle Gila River. And then again in northern Wyoming. Many years backpacking, tent camping and field work involving tents.

I lived in mostly tents until the year before I started Kindergarten. It ended in August '83 when my mom went into into labor with the twins.

@Donotbelieve Twin boys, pretty sure they're identical but they never found out for sure. I cried when they were born because I wanted little sisters but I guess they're alright now.

I spent a month living in a tent in the Kenyan bush and thought it was quite fabulous living, indeed.
