Can you go for a whole week without using technology?
No computers, TV, cell phone or i-pods or any other gadgets. Use only a radio and a landline phone. Can you do it? For me it’s no big deal because we do without that stuff when we go camping for a week in a tent. It’s easy if you stay occupied. Don’t get bored.
If you think you can then give it a try.
The work place is the exception. Just do this at home.

I have done this, at my dad’s homestead. He uses solar power during the day for enough power to use the vacuum and to power his satellite phone. At night he powers up the generator if he needs lights . There is no tv reception or radio reception, only a cb radio.
He grows all his own food and hunts for meat. He has chickens for eggs and lives on a lake where he can fish for salmon.
It’s incredible, and we keep busy all day doing chores and walking through the woods looking for good firewood to cut.
At night we sit down for dinner and soon after fall asleep reading a book using electricity stored in a car battery from the solar panels.
It’s really wonderful and I have always found that when I have to go back to civilization I am sorry.
