Where & How

9 years ago

Hello and thank you for reading.
I am currently in the U.S. and I am ready for something else.

I don't have very much money (i.e. enough to travel and support myself humbly for a little while at least).
Does anyone know of any opportunities for a healthy, able bodied man to earn his humble daily bread? I have a wife and 2 children though I would be willing if necessary to get set up as a single man and then send for my family.

Does anyone know of any ecovillages, farms, sustainable communities, etc where opportunities might exist?

My needs are little and I am ready to take the plunge. I had hoped to go in with some friends on cheap land so if anyone knows of opportunities for that I would also be interested. I am tired of wasting my life away in the U.S. and ready to go now? How can I do it? Where should I go? People who say this is crazy are wrong? Any help even a vague suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I do speak a little Spanish but I am very rusty but not afraid of immersion and confident it would come back enough to handle basic communication.

I'm interested in simple humble living, natural home building (cob, straw bale, etc), permaculture, ecology, agroforesty, things of that nature but open to pretty much any opportunity.
