Meet The Man Who Lives In A Tree Stump And Does His Teeth With Pinecones

This man once owned several houses, cars and he had money to keep him comfortable. One day however he decided to get up and see the world. He picked up his back pack and he set foot into the wild, he found himself full with excitement and he knew that this was the life for him. He has stated that he has never once thought about going back home, because he really does feel as though the forest is his home.
This story is incredible and it just goes to show that it is possible to live in the wild. He has tattoos on his feet to show his connection to the wild and he always walks bare foot because he believes that his senses are more alert when he does. What an incredible story and it just goes to show that anything is possible when you put your mind to it.
