The downside of living in the bush....

[Mortymoose]

Friday afternoon, came home early, lit the braai, suiped a lot of Whk draught, watching the driftwood ignite on the braai, palm tree about 34 m high fluttering in the breeze, only 17h07 in Nam right now, have a major craving to return to the mother city to go pub crawling like i did when I was a youth..... Fire alone right now, quiet, still ....boggerall social....... Need to head into the city sometime, socialize in realtime.....

 

[HavocXphere]

Depends on personality I guess. I could totally do the living in the desert thing [*] ...somehow I don't really need/carve direct interaction like others do.

* assuming ADSL. I'd die if I can't read up on cool stuff.

 

[Mortymoose]

I'm living in a town that has the 2nd lowest density in the world, ja... It's nice , but I have to redort to socializing online.... What a waste of a fire.....

 

[Shiraz]

That's sounds like the life for me.... Don't need people, just me and the brain fire.... And ADSL

 

[Picard]

Fire. Wood. Burning. Dop in my hand. In an outback environment. Nobody else around.

I could do this for quite a while ... although not forever.

I remember feeling like this when I was doing field work outside Grünau. Was kiff for the first two weeks...

Envy...

As others said, that with an internet connection will be envy of many here...

I'm heading that way in Sept/Oct to get away a bit, cannot wait to be in the position you are in right now i.e. desolation...

 

[Knyro]

I hear you OP. A bit of extended alone time can be great, but not all the time.

Err I think you mean isolation? Desolation sounds pretty terrible even for introverts.

[MKFrost]

Both, desolation & isolation, the big nothing

'tis true I suppose. I guess if you can switch between the two at will that would be ideal. Usually though if you're connected socially & withdraw then ppl give you flak for it.

Coming up for a backpackers style bike trip on my GS soon.

Wait - you mean there are threads that aren't filled with wasted people on a Friday night?

Not sure switching 2 letters is a sure indicator of BAC though...

Next MyBB meet Nam.

 

[Hemps]

Nothing beats Namibia, been there a good couple times already, the isolation and the ability to drive off into the desert and be alone and most importantly safe!

 

[spiderz]

Next MyBB meet Nam.

RoadTrip!!!!
