20 20 a vision i ones had , .... reading glasses are a part of me now and so on , but i am free as a man can be . I no longer have obligations to a work related contract , i resigned from payments to me by a company that i used to work for . They had no use for me no more for over a year now , considered to sick for the work they can offer me . I agreed to stop that contract and find an other source of income . Witch i for the past year have tried true all official sources provided by the government and henchman .
For now i can apply for an unemployment welfare payment or other social government controlled system to keep paying rent for my house and something to eat . Any hope for a 50 year old peaceful anarchist to find a job that fits somewhere in it are minimal . As a worn out producing mechanic i live in the wrong region , the Dutch like to use cheap labor in far away country's . My options are to stand in line and hope politics won't screw me over ...... yeah right ;-)
If not , well yea , but no , i got lucky , something came my way , a for years good friend bought a olive tree yard in Greece . Offered me to go there and live the free life , start a homestead and become self supporting . This friend will go there with his partner very soon , as is my other friend that for now lives and pays rent in the same house as i do .
Confused ? i get it , i = 1 , friend + partner = 2 , friend in same house = 1 , 1 + 2 + 1 = 4 , so including me 4 people to go with this story , ( if Bob comes by , not 1 of the 4 , ignore Bob for now ) ( but there is a Bob ) ( just so you know )
In short , a group of ( much younger then me ( +/-29 in years) ) friends that i live close with for years now moves from the Netherlands to Greece for a self supporting and free life on a self-made homestead . And i am welcome to join that .
After lot's of thought about my options , like can i live that free life as a worn out damaged technical production worker ? Or is it better to stay under the safety of government and state control ? ..... i had to slap myself many times ;-) .
Very soon i will go on a road trip with no return , when the snow is melted i will cross the Alps .
No more will i have income from contract payments or go obtain wealth-fare payments from government controlled systems . With hardly any cash or savings , like flat broke that is , i will take the good old 95 Honda and leave for Greece .
Coming week the Honda will get his yearly APK check and maybe a trailer hook fixed to it , for a caravan , if i can find a really cheap sale on one that is . I for now have a good survival tent and camp gear that fit's in to the Honda easy .
So YEAH , I AM FREE ......
Stay tuned for more , ill take a camera and stuff , i need to smack all desktop pc connected accounts on a laptop or tab .
Got some preparing to do and wait for the Alps to clear , thanks for reading and support , enjoy the day .

(I've landed in places where I didn't speak the language, no contacts, and literally zero $'s in my pocket, and it always worked out. You'll be fine with a support network already in place.
Easy peasy, my friend.

Leaving is easy , having somewhere to go is the hard part .
So yes , easy going on the arrival part .
I will probably start clearing rocks and stuff while waiting for my friends to arrive .
Be one my own for a month or two , gazing at stars, mountains and sea .
Thks for the support and reading .

thks , i worked every day for my pay , never had to depend on wealth-fare payment , i , by working , payed for so many others . By refusing the medical treatment that comes with a unfit to work declaration you will be treated fit for mindless light production work . While taking treatment would have given me yearly chemical injections , a artificial knee and a filled up med's locker , probably sitting in a wheelchair starring in a void down on med's .
I should have had the balls years ago , for now it's just a logic step to take on a opportunity given . Still , yeah..... whooha ;-)

Congratulations my friend...I am certainly wishing you a happy journey to Greece, where you might find the freedom you desire.
Post your travel and arrival at least once in awhile here on steemit. We'll be waiting.
OPAH!!!!
