The Forest Nomads

Welcome to our YouTube channel, where we embark on an exciting journey toward self-sufficiency in the Canadian forest wilderness! Currently living in a bustling city in South Africa, we’ve sold our house and downsized our life to pursue a dream of living sustainably and harmoniously with nature. Our mission is to escape location dependence by exploring remote work opportunities, allowing us to dive into the heart of the Canadian wilderness.

Join us as we document every step of our adventure—from learning essential homesteading skills, foraging for wild food, and building our own cabin, to connecting with fellow enthusiasts in the homesteading community. We’re eager to learn from those who have walked this path before us, so we invite you to share your insights, tips, and advice on this journey.

Expect a mix of practical how-to's, inspiration from the wilderness, and updates on our progress as we navigate the challenges and triumphs of our new life.
