I want to have a small herd of dogs, cats and horses someplace out of the middle of nowhere, with the only neighbors in walking distance being my friend, Chris, and her family. I might have interactions with horseback riding teachers, and perhaps eventually, students, and I may even have interactions with a music teacher of some sort, but other than Chris and fam, that would ideally be the only interactions I have.

you'd want the special russian breed of tame fox, they were experimentally bred for docility, they are like a housepet dog.

I've been a gamer since forever... so I'd love to be a game designer.

I have a thousand and one ideas, but lack the programming skill to actually implement them.

I saw that movie. It was quite enjoyable.

I laughed pretty good when he tried to keep the otter in his London apartment.

I live in that small community of people you talk about. Something like 70 people in about 50 square miles.

I'd like to live autonomous and free from social pressure. I like to observe things and people. The lifestyle of a mystery novel writer would suit me.

High mobility, being able to travel but has an observer, not an actor... without being bothered by other people.

I hate being a scrounger and prefer to contribute and help others. I want to be absolutely free, while being self sufficient.

Here are the daily routines of famous writers, it inspires me: http://www.brainpickings.org/index.php/ ... s-writers/


I like the way you think. Nothing beats mobility and freedom.

Being independent, comfortable, financially secure and self-sufficient.
Me. A cat. An apartment. That's it.

My diagnoses - social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I’m no longer involved with the ASD world.

Perfect would probably just be to be normal, and it would be nice to have both parents alive as well, infact i would take that above being normal anyday

I had to think about this:

My perfect life would be that I could live alone, but have enough assistance so that living alone wouldn't become an unmitigated disaster. I would like a job as well, preferably one that involves writing and creativity.

I would appreciate friends who share at least some of my hobbies. Some of my hobbies are a group thing (roleplaying games, for example) and it is a bit awkward to manage those solo off a computer.

I am not actually concerned about wealth as long as I can have my needs met.

My ideal lifestyle would be to retire to a house on a lake where I could fish and reasonably near a first rate university where I could attend a variety of lectures that are open to the public and also go to their baseball and softball games in the spring.

I've actually had a few email conversations with the head of the department of the Russian Institute of Cytology and Genetics in Novabrisk.

Unfortunate that they won't allow a fertile group of them outside of the lab. Allowing breeders in the USA would allow a level of accessibility that isn't currently available. And depending on business arrangements, it may pull in the money they need to keep the project running.

Living in Northern Alaska alone in a cabin with solar panels for power. I would also somehow bring the internet to the cabin with a huge chunk of bandwidth. I would have dogs and cats outside, and would make a living doing work from my computer (perhaps programming, networking, something like that). I would be nocturnal, sleeping during the day and being active at night. I would have a ham radio with VHF capabilities.

Being some type of artist, writer, designer or scholar, living with my husband in a house with a tower, curved walls, and round windows, by a lake with plenty of land, a high fence, and a beautiful garden. Having just few good friends I see once in a blue moon and some sort of person I could trust to interact with the marketplace for me. Never having to leave my property unless I chose. Swimming every day, reading and occasionally traveling (alone or with one person I like). Knowing I was doing work that meant something to people, but not actually having to interact directly. Having total privacy whenever I liked.
