Sorry to hear your time in a developing nation didn't develop like you hoped upon arrival. It's not for everyone, but for someone like me, its the frontier I was looking for.
I lived off-frid solo, on my 17 acre mountaintop livestock and equestrian laden farm for 6 years in western North Carolina. I was also doing a lot of gold prospecting and working some at a commercial tourist gold mine there as well as commuting 90 miles each way to Charlotte as a VP for a now defunct social media company. I was still there in NC when I first found what was then Steem at the time so many centuries ago.
Our paths have looped past each other in those places, but crossed here. That's why this place is so special.
