    There’s the explorers / settlers dream: making their own life, independent, away from society.

    There’s the universal basic income dream: all of life’s necessities are taken care of, but you still get to participate in society

    There’s the religious freedom dream: creating a community for people who believe the same things you believe, optionally excluding other people.

    Depending on your definition, or their definition I guess, there are options:

    A. Alaska still is giving out homesteader claims. You just have to live in Alaska and habitize the wilderness

    B. There are a couple terra nullious locations globally, usually dessets, that one could live in.

    C. And then the oceans, it’s difficult to live on an ocean sustainably, but nobody else would be interfering with you other than pirates.

      Alaska really, i guess you need to be an American for that but right?

      It appears you lied to me

      Homesteading ended on all federal lands on October 21, 1986. The State of Alaska currently has no homesteading program for its lands.

        Lol, im no expert, there was no intention to deceive.

        That’s the example I’m familiar with, but I imagine Russian tundra is also available, and maybe some of the desert regions as well. I haven’t really done research into this, because I like living in society a little too much.

        I believe the pitcorn Islands do welcome people to live there, but that’s a type of isolation that’s even more remote than Alaska
