Woman Living Off-Grid on a Remote Island - 2 Years in a Small Cabin
Amanda lives alone in an off-grid cabin on a remote island in British Columbia. She previously lived on a sailboat in Vancouver for 8 years and then headed North with her boat. She eventually wanted to move onto land because her dog Buttercup was getting older and after searching online, she connected with the owners of an island who were looking for a caretaker to keep an eye on things.
So for the past two years, Amanda has lived solo on the island (aside from a couple of months in the summer when the owners and cabin guests are visiting) and she has taken care of everything from splitting and stacking firewood, maintaining the lawn, running the generators, and a lot more! It's a big job and she does most of her caretaker tasks in the morning and in the afternoons she works remotely as a web designer. She also has a great KZhead channel that she uses to document her liveaboard and off-grid lifestyles.

Fantastic, you are an amazing soul, self made woman, great inspiration
My wife and I are ready
I have so much admiration for people who are not afraid to step outside the box. Amazing woman, amazing life.
me too she rocks
JUST do it!
Its not stepping outside the box this is how our ancestors where living before all this technology. This is how we are suppose to live. Technology has done nothing but ruined everything and made people greedy n prideful.
Maybe it is time for you to step out of the box if you admire it?
@computerjantje oh heavens no, I love my life in the subtropics surrounded by family, friends, beaches and rainforest. If there's one thing I've learnt as I've got older it's that just because something is beautiful/exciting etc doesn't mean I need to own it or do it. I can admire and appreciate and then move on.
I lived off the grid on my 20 acres with a small creek down the middle in the high mountains of BC Canada. for 20 years. with my wife and ended up with 4 children..The closest neighbour was about 5 miles away, down the valley..It was a wonderful way to live and raise a family..The kids are all in their late 20s and 30s now and Love the outdoors ..I put all their names on the deed and now I live Down near Vancouver BC..I'm 70 years old now and very content with the life I lived...God bless this spirited woman for having the will to live her life the way she loves... Wishing for worldwide peace...and hearts of love.....
Amazing... lucky kids!!!
@@AmandaOffGrid Thanks Amanda...Yes. we ended up with 4 lovely kids by the time we figured out what was causing it......
Generational wealth is ❤️
Amen
Did you ever see Bigfoot ?
She's not lonely because she's in tuned with herself. The person you'll live with the most in your lifetime is yourself. So be your own best friend and you will never be lonely. She's rockin' that island life🙏💞
So true
I get hassled because I like being alone, it's peaceful and can get things done, not around bad people into my life.
Walking thru Lyfe in Nature ❤with God❤No one is ever really alone😊
💯💯💯🙏
@@user-ow3xu3go1g good for you! 👏 Doesn’t ultimately matter what others think about you. Let’s just say it’s none of our biz what folks think about us
What a great video. Nice to see our neighbor here. My husband and I live close by on our sailboat and it's been such a pleasure getting to know Amanda. Our boat lifestyle takes us to so many tiny communities and anchourages. It's nice to have a friend like Amanda in these communities when we find ourselves exploring or just getting out of the way of a storm. ❤
That is awesome! You live in such a beautiful part of the world. Thanks for checking out the video :)
❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
@@AmandaOffGrid Hey...Amanda...hi
👋@@dadejazzba402
@@AmandaOffGrid❤
This young lady is hard worker living her best life. Go girl!
For sure it can't be easy doing all that work and the isolation is definitely not for everyone. She seems to be thriving in that type of lifestyle though! Thanks for your comment :)
I totally get it! I have a third hero! Fabulous! And I'm the first person to comment?! Awesome!!! :-)
It’s fun til you can’t leave when you want to. Work trade is usually a form of indentured servitude. Glad,it worked for her, though. There’s always exceptions.
@@72marshflower15 Work trade?! Who's trading work for living off-grid? This isn't some casual exchange of chores for room and board. No, sir. This is a paid gig, and it's serious business.
@@AmandaOffGrid ~ well, I guess you just don’t know about “off grid grifting”.. Lucky you..
Mad that no one told me this is a job at high school career day because this is the dream. Love it for her!
Right?
I absolutely agree 💯. No one needs much to be happy. It's an egotistical issue that prevents ppl from living like this. The second I get enough money to buy/ or have made something like this, I'M GONE!
Same!
They left out loads of good stuff.
Lonely is a state of mind. She is increasing her life expectancy and mental health wellness.
Words of wisdom right there.
Having lived off grid for many years, I would tend to disagree. The data would show that a lack of regular health care, including dentistry will shorten ones life expectancy. Oftentimes a minor health issue will be 'toughed out' rather than addressed, which can lead to an exacerbated decline in overall health. This lifestyle appears (to the uninitiated) to be filled with endless days of serenity and solitude...whereas in reality, it's labour intensive, lonely, and extremely dangerous...and just staying warm is a full time occupatipn. I'd give most humans a month before they're desperate for takeout and a Starbucks😂
Couldn't agree more , her life is healthy and wealthy.
Research suggests otherwise, showing that married people live longer. Nonetheless, I'd agree she seems to have carved-out a niche for herself and appears content.
@@robertmuckle2985 Starbucks and takeout with little exception are highly addictive laden in toxins 🤢🤮waste of time/money, so what was your point?
The older I get, the less I need others. Solitude is my favorite place. I used to run run run, in the city, now I have just about all I need in a small town. Crazy.
Ppl r just crazy now
She seems wonderfully detached from material possessions. What an inspiring arc.❤
This woman is fearless. It takes a lot of courage to go out on your own.
Not having to depend on anything or anybody and still be happy shows how strong and golden her spirit is. The world needs more people with her mentality….
I spent 9 months alone in the Montana wilderness, it was the best time of my life.
The owners of that island are lucky to have found someone for the job. Seems very busy.
It's true, they are lucky, Amanda seems like a hard worker that they can really count on! Thanks for watching :)
They certainly don't do any work themselves! Nobles or heirs... Expropriate immediately!
@@zebaotelohim3768 The owners actually own a business on Vancouver Island and work very hard.
If Amanda ever retires, I would love to take her place!
@@AllTheHappySquirrels It is a pretty great place, my son was caretaker there for two years prior to Amanda and I had the good fortune to visit a few times.
Most people Don't live their lives on their own terms. Amanda is NOT that person. She has the strength and will to live how and where she wants and is crushing it. Its amazing to witness true freedom.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The independence needed for this is phenomenal. Truly takes someone special.
Some people just enjoy solitude. My wife died a year ago. My life of teaching in one-teacher schools and in the sticks were hard on her but not me. I grew up on an island. Lately friends thing I should be looking for a companion, but I'm happy the way I am and I don't think many women would like to live my back-to-the land lifestyle. I live 5 driving hours from the nearest interstate and 2 driving hours to the nearest Costco. But having traveled many times up the coast and seen so many of the BC coastal islands and the waterfalls and the animals and the orcas, I wished I could have spent time on the BC Coast. But I lived on the American San Juans which are an extension of the Canadian San Juans. We high school kids couldn't wait to get off the "rock", but now I am so glad I had that life and understand so well Amanda's life. Thanks, Amanda.
I just looked thru a few comments. Some of the first ones I will respond to. Like one person said you’re not off grid if you use a cell phone, another said you’re not off grid if you’re on KZhead. I guess more people should do some research on what off grid is. You live in the middle of nowhere and you supply your own power like wind or solar. You have no public utilities like water, gas, sewer or electric. There are many people that have KZhead channels that live off grid. Like when I camped in the Desert for 12 months in the middle of nowhere. Sure I had my cell phone I used wind and solar for power. I truly love that lifestyle. You are living my dream Amanda.
Yaaaaas! Just because you've got internet and cell service (which, by the way, I don't have), it doesn't disqualify you from living off-grid. Some purists might argue that true off-grid living means cutting ties with all things digital, but let's be real here: in today's world, staying connected is more of a necessity than a luxury. When you're out in the middle of nowhere and you need help, having a lifeline to the outside world can save your life.
OffGrid means like if the Grid went down Which means cell phns are down too, yup If u wanna make a vid on phn charged with solar panel and then d/l it in town once a week on library internet, sure. I’ve lived very recently with no phn service at all. For 1 1/2yrs. With kids. It was most amazing time in our life. Ppl learned to leave vmails cuz it wouldn’t even register my missed calls. I went to town once a week lol You Just Need Each Other and Friends Who Want To Stop By Aloneness, I’m not so sure of. Humans are social creatures.
I had first discovered this gal when she was in my neck of the woods coming in on her zodiac for supplies. I was amazed that she was living on a small sail boat with such a large dog ! We are all so controlled by a fake concept called money and a world that is literally spinning out of control it's not going to affect this woman much. You simply can't put a price on what she has seen and experienced. Take good care everyone.
Good job of not overly romanticizing it. When you heat with wood or coal, it's constant work.
Move out in the rural mountain west and you can experience a lot of that kind of life.
3 years only wood, a lot of the time im just too lazy and wear down pants and jacket inside
@@jacobmeis1249 I bet you hardly shower.
Oh so you think I'm some kind of dirt bag or something. Whatever emperor.
She's living my dream but I am nowhere near as capable as she is. Much respect ❤️
yes you are!!!! ❤
@@AmandaOffGrid Some folks are barred from this kind of life experience due to physical restrictions. I am one of them. I am on an ‘island’ of sorts & I’ve got my own version of bears and cougars. Thank God we both have the internet!!!
@@AmandaOffGrid I am so sorry about Buttercup. This is a great video.
Thank you 🧡 @@patriciag.6395
As a biologist, and vet tech, I must say that Amanda got my dream job :) I am loner and I love the outdoors. Awesome work Amanda!!!!! Thanks @exploringalternatives for interviewing Amanda! Now she got a new follower at her youtube channel :)
Thanks so much, I'm happy you enjoyed Amanda's interview! We had a great time editing the video and telling her story :)
Get out there and do it...live each day like your last day.
I think those owners are lucky to have someone like her. It's gotta be tough to find someone you trust enough to take care of such a beautiful place.
"I miss the smelly, trash filled streets, polluted air and water, lack of space, violence, drugs, crime, cops, noise, disrepect, neighbors, I would encounter in the city." Said no one ever.
I do miss New York ! I never realized it until I read what you summed up so well !!👍🏽
🤣🤣🤣🤣 lol so true
Said No One Ever *Nailed it
Just when I think you've shown us all the 'unique living/lifestyle situations' you bring us Amanda. What a strong, independent person who not only found the lifestyle she loves, but at a time in her life it was needed. She is a true Renaissance woman.
Thanks so much for your comment! You're right, Amanda is indeed pretty awesome and we really enjoyed editing this video! Thanks for checking it out :)
Oh my gosh girl. You are adorable. COURAGE, I wish I had had a wandering heart like yours, but more importantly, the COURAGE to follow your heart. I'm sorry for Buttercup's loss. I know the feeling, ... I don't think we ever get over the loss of beloved critters, we just get used to living without them. You're my hero.
Somehow I lost track of you, Amanda. So glad you're back. Sorry to hear of the passing of your dog, Buttercup. She had a good life. Don't grieve. Till later. Keep well.
as isolated as she is, many people would argue that they live in new york or at one time me in dc, surrounded by millions of people and you still feel very very lonely. anyway, lovely vid
Couldn’t agree more with Amanda. Buying a sailboat and moving on to her was the best decision I’ve ever made . Keep living life on your terms⛵️
Peace and solitude in a boat and living off-grid. Away from the tumult of the world. Thank you for this inspiring video.
Good honest work. The owners are lucky to have her. 👍
Absolutely they are lucky to have her! Thanks for checking out this video 😁
It sounds like they are lucky to have found each other.
Does the owner pay salary to Her?
I hope she gets another dog (or 2), best company. Love her story she is blessed beyond comparison. I live alone & love it. Solitude is freedom, you have to really enjoy your own company. Subscribed to her channel to follow her progress. Thanks for sharing
Two of the right kind of dogs could protect her and even themselves from the bears and cougars. Myself, I'd get about 10 dogs.😂
She definitely needs another big dog-or two.
@@d.e.7467 I used to have 20 dogs ( 4 inside, the rest outside) when I had a small ranchito on the border in California - BEST security system the world, also had a mean goose that would chance them around the ranch ha!!!
@@d.e.7467😅
@@redheadedgypsy1939 😂 beware of goose 🦆 best security system ❤
I’d love to do her job. I’ve had enough of noise pollution and the busy city life. Since Covid I’ve seen a major change in the way people behave. Anxiety levels are through the roof. I just want the simple peaceful lifestyle
I've noticed that too. Seems like everyone is on edge, maybe covid just made people realise how depressing and awful the system is so now a lot of us are longing for a "simple" life.
Fantastic to see Amanda get some exposure. If you go back to the beginning of her channel, her sailboat videos are wonderful.
Thanks for checking out the video! And yes for sure, her channel is great, hope people go check it out :)
Hi Amanda, sorry I missed this video. I am so sorry about Buttercups passing she had been a very good companion to you. A lot of people don't understand people like us. We love living remote, we love doing for ourselves and enjoy the peace and quiet. I have been doing it for 76 years and would never trade this lifestyle for anything or any money. It's really good to hear from you and hope you get back to making more videos. What's your new companions name? Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and Happy belated Solstice
What an absolutely lovely lady, living out her dream.
So perfect (imho) … she’s enjoying her life … all the while … helping others … it’s a win-win ❤ all the best to her !
What a fantastic life in paradise! Good for you Amanda enjoy this lifetime opportunity! Sorry for the passing of your dog.
Fantastic human being, thank you Amanda. You are a marvel.
Loneliness is not a feeling that a person has to experience, it’s an agreed upon thing by some people, that’s all ☺️ Thank you for your lovely video!
Very cool! I loved when she said, “living off grid teaches you to be aware of what you are consuming” - so true. Liveaboard sailor & RVer here. The packaging after a grocery run is insane…. She’s amazing.
She is living my dream life. It requires lot of courage and consistency which I lack. Wish her safe and best life always
We, too, have a cabin in north BC, and we're the only ones there full year around, i actually split my time in the city, but my husband is retired, and he's here full time. He loves❤
That sounds amazing, you live in a beautiful part of the world! Thanks for checking out the video :)
An amazing beautiful young lady!!!! Hardworking while being rewarded with an incredible lifestyle!!!! Looking forward to following her journey!!!!
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy following Amanda's journey :)
I could very easily see me living this lifestyle. I admire her for her spirit and getting it done attitude.ni especially liked the method of log retrieval.
I grew up living just like that near Flagstaff AZ. We had cattle and chickens and horses. Mom gardened and we did a lot of fishing and hunting.
She is a brave and unique person. I love this...not many people can say, "I can't even tell you the number of times I've walked outside, gone around the side of my cabin, and looked up and there's a bear right there...so that's a bit of a challenge." I love nature and the outdoors but bears and cougars by myself- oh my! I love her spirit!
Totally agree! Amanda is a pretty impressive person! Thanks for checking out the video and for your comment :)
I live on my own on a mountain by a lake surrounded by woods, have bears, foxes, coyotes, Bob cats, beavers, eagles, ducks, loons, etc. I love my life. I do all my work inside , out. I have to stack wood, have two large lots I now with a push mower for exercise. I clean my own wood stove, pipe out, shovel snow, etc. I love my life, never get lonely, depressed. I live my life doing what makes me happy, that is the secret, do what makes you happy no matter what any one thinks because its your life to live as you see fit. I think to many people live their lives to please others. I don't believe in controlling, there is no way I would allow another person to control me. I have to feel free, freedom is the only way to go with me. There are more people taking to this kind of living. I certainly admire Amanda, I can relate to her way of living. She has that beautiful boat, she is one remarkable woman that I am sure of.
🧡 @@mildredmorine745
This would be a dream scenario for me. Love the ocean and BC. I am at peace in my own company and would love this place. Stay safe out there lovely and know so many of us are living vicariously through you. 😂😊
Have missed seeing you Amanda, so sorry about Buttercup 😢
I live a similar lifestyle in the Land of the Whispering Hills north Alberta. The longer I live this way ; which has been over two decades... The more I love it. I have often said.... I am alone [with my dogs MezmerEyes, Willow and MelyAnne my cats and forest friends ], I am not lonely.
Wood for 3 buildings and while still having to burn some during the summer? And you have to harvest it from the water? And you have to do the groundskeeping? Wow that's a lot of work.
What a beautiful, peaceful life. I enjoy my solitude too. Much more now than when I was younger. Living and working out in Nature really feeds the soul...
I love her! She's delightful and adorable!
WOW, you're living my dream life Amanda!!! To anyone out there looking for a caretaker, I'm a 56 year old vet who's cut down hundreds of trees. Am in The Florida Native Plant Society and give foraging walks. Had rental property. Spent all my teenage years in Alaska, 3 in a log cabin. Can fix anything (was a jet mech in the navy)etc etc. My wife and I will plant you a food forest and manage it for you, just let us plop a tiny house in a remote corner of the property!
Hi, we lived off grid in the NZ bush. We had to start from scratch, build everything, home cabin, composting loos, solar and microhydro, regenerative gardens and fruit trees. After 20 years we were too old and tired. Do this while you are young with good eyesight and no health issues. Stuck in town now, doctor, super markets, power with just a switch, still preferred being in the bush.
I love her sense for freedom. Beautiful!
Really makes you stop and think about your life choices, how there are many options outside the normal boundaries. This young lady is doing it her way. Much respect.
Amanda made the right call. Me and my family did the same thing back in 2008.
You need to get another butter cup!!! Whether you’re a nomad or the quiet doesn’t make you lonely, it’s nice to have a companion, especially a four legged one!
That's amazing. She's clearly enjoying it. I'm an introvert and would love to live like this
This girl is so nice. I bet she's living her best life❤
What a useful human life. Love it. To be alone with a purpose in a beautiful natural place. Wow Even the danger is invigorating bc it makes you more aware of every moment..cannot rush, must notice it all.. I hope you find another dog or one finds you. Unconditionally sharing life and love with a dog will keep your heart strong. x
Wow she seems to enjoy this life style and is happy. A friend of mine told me once just because I live alone does not mean I'm lonely. Some people enjoy their own company. I'm happy for her. Thank you Matt and Danielle for sharing her story ❤❤❤
Awww we love Amanda!❤ And we're so sorry about Buttercup! 😢 Looking forward to Amanda's next video!
Us too! We also look forward to Amanda's next video! Thanks for watching :)
Wonderful story. Thank you for sharing. I fully agree that off grid living makes you look at what you use whether it’s water or other. Stay safe and keep up the great work.
Awww Buttercup!
Bravo! You are a tough lady, and I wish all the best for you and your future. I'm so sorry your dogs life ended. I believe we only change form, and your dog is now light energy, but still very much around you. Much love and light, Miriah
I love that, thank you. I love thinking of Buttercup as 'light energy' around me ❤❤
Wow just wow! It takes a special kind of woman to live like she does. She's a hero to me because i would love to do this a few months a year. Im so happy she has no regrets, how amazing is that?! Great video 😊
I’d love to see her get a new dog. They’re the best friends and provide unconditional love and companionship. I’m going to check out her channel, the older I get the more this way of life appeals to me.
Love this story! Our lifestyle is quite different on the surface, but we found so much inspiration in what you said and the freedom you have. We hope you can keep living the way you choose every day!
What a truly amazing woman you are ~ I can feel your peacefulness coming through this video, what a grand life you are living for yourself. Talk about strong - my goodness, it is quite impressive watching all the work you do lifting and splitting logs!! WOW! Sending you light, love, peace, joy and abundance always. I love you.
So inspiring this young lady, I really admire her lifestyle. Sorry to here about Buttercup Amanda :(
Damn ,She is livin the dream 🫡🥺
I love her way of living. Being alone is not lonely
"Amanda" is a Latin word in the passive perphrastic grammatical construction and is literally translated: "she who must be loved". This lady Amanda is a lovely, competent woman.
You must feel so connected to nature, it is beautiful !
When your ready Amanda rescue,so many beautiful lonely animals at shelters. ✌️🤗
Hi Amanda I have you on the other amanda off grit too I was sure glad I found you again so sorry about you dog are uou getting another dog eventually well stay safe and well happy new year Amanda 🎉❤
What a privilege to live in such a place.
Good for her! I admire people who know what they want and actually go do it. More power to her. Hope she adopts a new dog to oeep her company.
You don't get lonely because of all the nature around you and all the work you are doing. What an amazing job , What a dream job!
You are such an adventurer! I have been brave off & on through my life. You live it daily! Bravo, you are a badass!❤👏👏🏽
Living in solitude ,a choice of living by some,is calm,peace,freedom……Never Lonely 🥰
What a beautiful place - Amanda, thank you so much for sharing your home with us. So sorry to hear about Buttercup - I lost my lovely dog in November, so I can imagine how hard that was for you x
I once asked a therapist if it was strange that I'm always alone but never lonely. He said he thinks it's definite personality type and the people who go against their nature to force themselves into social lives are those who suffer severe depression. Some of us, for whatever reason, are meant to be alone. Congratulations to this woman for having found her place.
Beautifully said. I've never been one to go against my nature. It's disheartening to witness so many people steer away from their authentic selves, chasing after societal expectations and norms. They often find themselves navigating through lives that feel hollow and unfulfilled. It would be so liberating if society embraced our human differences with open arms, rather than scrutinizing and condemning them. We'd all be much happier for it.
Wow Amanda, I am impressed, remarkable woman, you have accomplished having a dream life. I can understand why you have complete happiness don't get lonely, depressed. You have chosen a life that makes you happy that is the secret to happiness. I can relate, I live alone on a mountain by a lake have a lot of animals , birds, that I enjoy. I love nature, beauty, quietness. I love the fact that when I turn my lights of at night it is quiet complete darkness, no sounds except for occasionally you will hear an owl. You are living the life, I can understand why you are happy, you have every reason to be. I am happy for you. I don't think the owners will ever get rid of you as you are doing a remarkable job. Thank you for sharing, i enjoyed hearing about your life. I enjoyed the video, beautiful there.
Wow, what a nice , beautiful life Amanda has, i too prefer a nomad style peaceful life without the noise and distractions . Stay safe and happy Amanda!🙂✌️
It sounds like a dream. I don’t come out of my woods if t don’t have to I spent five years on an island when I was young. I miss it!
What a life..... nothing beats beauty, solidarity and being your own self in an idyllic location.
definitely :)!!
I am so jealous. I am totally in her world not wanting to go into town. I would hope they are starting a delivery service in town to the islands to make my world even better
You can sense how beautiful her soul is. I praise you for everything you do young lady. Thank you for the great video.
I've seen your utube videos. Such an inspiration. I would so enjoy doing that. Thank you so very much. Loving kindness. Lol I'm living on Vancouver off grid. First year, yahhhhhhhhhh
She's an amazing woman. And very lucky to be living the life of her dreams. Regarding the lonely thing, same. I don't understand people that feel lonely or bored. They just don't see the magic of this reality, of Nature, of themselves.
I need people, this would be so lonely for me. But such a unique lifestyle. Thanks to Amanda for inviting us into her world.
Definitely this kind of lifestyle is not for everyone. You have to really enjoy the solitude, but if you do, living like this in this part of the world would be wonderful! Thanks for checking out the video :)
Wow beautiful story beautiful woman beautiful life. I’m so glad you’ve found your niche in life. Will check out your channel
What a courageous woman you are! Thank you for sharing your Off-Grid life!
I agree with Amanda when she said she probably got burnt out when she lived in Vancouver. I got burnt out from toxic coworkers and a busy hectic life. Amanda's life is a similar life I would like to live. I'm getting older and I want to live a calm peaceful life.
With how the world is today, living this way is considered weird for most. How materialistic and extroverted the world is, is the reason behind it. People can’t keep still. For me, this is the life. Working the land and enjoying peace and quiet is an absolute privilege and a necessity in my opinion. Truly challenges you. The mental therapy is mandatory. Love this. Much respect and admiration for this woman.🙏🏼❤️🤙🏼✊🏼
What beautiful scenery and lifestyle. I live almost remotely but in the tropics. I equally appreciate the solitude and living in nature. Enjoyed this!
Amanda is amazing. To chase the dream, she actually manifests it with a great attitude and a decent amount of courage. Way to go, you’re an inspiration Amanda! ❤
I could absolutely live and work on an island. I think Amanda has a wonderful life and I definitely understand her love of being "alone". ❤️
