What I Eat in a Week Off Grid with 7 dinners on the Raw till 4 diet (ASMR)

My partner and I were both sick of the rat race, so 7 years ago we left our rather comfortable life in the city to follow our dream of growing our own food and living off-grid. We used all our money to buy 12 acres of rainforest in Queensland, Australia. We lived in a tent for the first few years. Initially we had no shower, so we bathed in the creek. We then made an outdoor shower connected to the creek. We had no toilet, so we made a composting toilet and attached a water sprayer. We had zero electricity until we got solar panels. We really wanted food freedom, so from the beginning we planted fruit trees, and a lot of them. I'm proud to say that we now have planted over 1,000. We used the bamboo from the land to build tons of primitive technology. In my late 30s I finally learned to make my own clothes, crochet, and one of my favorite skills using palm leaves from the land to weave into bags and mats. I was really growing, even my leg hair! But it hasn't all been wins. We've been set back by cyclones and by a one in 100 year flood. From poisonous tree sap that blistered me for weeks, anaphylaxis reaction to insect bites, to a cockroach making my ear its home in the middle of the night. But we are hooked. This is the life for us, and here we inspire you to also move off grid and grow your own food.

These are the types of videos we need more of on YouTube. Real life off grid type videos are the absolute best. The food looks healthy and delicious.

Freelee is an inspiration and has created alot of awareness to veganism and what animals go through over the years.

[Elizerulez]

i went vegan 8 years ago and never looked back partially because of your channel! thank you for being such an inspiration in the vegan movement!

[Sedgar]

I love this style of video with very little talking and beautiful photography. I find them mesmerizing

[theresamnsota]

I find adding some water to the baking pan when making stuffed peppers helps get the peppers tender without overcooking. Since you’re covering with foil, it creates a bit of steam while cooking.

[Lisatropolis]

I think I could have just kept on watching this... the food and the animals and the nature sounds... all of it so beautiful and soothing 🌱🐾💚

[gracelovesgaia]

I feel these videos are what your audience truly loves. Just health and wellness 💕 No negative vibes talking bad about what other people choose to do in their life. I know you just want to spread awareness 💕💕 but your audience wants peace and true health content 🤍🥰

Hi Freelee! I first started watching you when I was 15 years old, I did my research and became a vegan that same month. I'm now 25 and have been vegan for 10 years. So glad I came across your channel again and that you're still doing well! Love from ireland 🇮🇪

[sunfiredsam]

Yay!!! Missed your WIEIADs so much, love the inspiration, and love seeing your lifestyle in the jungle. Thank you Freelee!!!🫶🍌

[DianePeck-fsqj]

Love your videos always and how you’re using your platform for actual positive world change! 🥰 Smashed in 9 peaches and red grapes today. I’m always inspired to be raw by you. 🤩

[veganvegan-lgil]

The recipes, the green dress, the flowers, the sound of the jungle....inspiration on a high level

Dear Freelee, Thank you for your content about the Raw till 4 diet. You saved me! I started as a raw vegan. I starved myself on the fully raw vegan diet, I went back to my old diet for two weeks and then I finally found you. Your diet healed me, but unfortunately, I tried to be fully raw many times and starved myself over and over again. I'm never going anywhere else except Raw till 4 from now. That is the only diet that gave me health, look, and everything else I was looking for. Only your recommendations can keep people fruit-based and nourished in terms of calories. I felt it on my skin. I experienced that. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I think you are a live proof of Raw till 4. Keep spreading this message! God bless you!

[melrox]

I'm so happy to see videos like this again. I love the peacefulness 💚

[solfuela]

What a gem! When I think of your old videos compared to now, you went through a huge transformation 💃💪🦋

[sunnivabjornson]
