Hello and thanks for taking the time to read this. I am a DWM professional 52, currently living in Florida. I believe that there will be events within the next 1-7 years that will drastically change life as we know it, and I am looking for like minded individuals and/or families to share a vision of self sufficiency, safety, and the ability to sustain community. I have come to the realization that “ going it alone “ is not conducive to long-term survival. I also believe that Florida will likely be underwater, or at the very least not suitable for sustaining community within this time period ( polar shift, EMP, financial meltdown, etc. ) and I am looking at making the leap to a geographically sustainable area, likely either N. Ga, Tn., N.C. or possibly the Ozarks / N. Arkansas in order to begin this journey. I lost my job, my home, and my girlfriend earlier this year and it has been an awakening. But I still feel privileged to be an American Citizen who has the right and ability to seek a change for the better. I have decided that now is the time to work at finding the right community for the future.

What I am looking for: I am looking for either a location / existing community / individuals of like mind that seek 100% off the grid living. I am not a minimalist by any means, therefore existing or future plans for power generation ( preferably hydro, but also solar and wind )  is mandatory, as well as a clean water source, wood ( structures, fuel ), and the ability to harvest.

Although the possibility exists to start from scratch, I would it is preferable to find an existing structure / location / community that is relatively inexpensive. This would be ideal.

About me: Honest, dependable, EZ to get along with, law abiding, level headed. Not religious, but believe in the principals of the 10 commandments. Believe in the Constitution, Liberty, the Bill of Rights, and Freedom. I have disdain for the Gov’t, which has always been the center of our problems, rather than the center for solutions. I am neither a left-wing hippy nor a right wing militant- somewhere in between. I am looking for people with community skills sets, survival, carpentry, medical, etc. Honestly, since I basically grew up more or less a white collar individual, therefore my real life experience relevant to off grid skills is limited. However, I can provide:

• At least one vehicle
• Can share costs for building community / improvements
• Firearms, Ammo, Survival Gear, Rations
• The ability to learn, to help, and to grow with others

I have been prepping for around 6 months down here, and everyday learn more, although I don’t think you can ever learn it all, lol. Originally I was going to buy a lot at auction and a small RV and try to go it alone to go OTG. But this is not in my best long term interest, not to mention that it is a massive amount of work and expense for one individual. So looking for those like minded that either have a community plan in the works, have a community opening, or are individuals that are serious about getting one put together- I would like to hear from you. I plan on making this change within the next six months. Thanks again, I look forward to hearing from you-mrkinztampa [at] gmail [dot] com
