I Want To Live In A Cabin In The Woods, By A Lake

I'm the type of guy who would like a cozy cabin on Great Bear Lake up in Canada's Northern Territory. Having grown up in the Adirondack wilderness of northern NY, I appreciate nature, solitude and self reliance.
I could leave the...

Do I? Do I really want this? I want to live an 'authentic life' as Jean de Florette said, to hear the birds sing, chop logs, live in peace with myself and hear my heartbeat slow down. But do I really want to live alone? If I do, it's...
