Even in a little,tiny country I'm from, one could go into the forest owned by the state, build some stone age shelter and live there as long as he'd like to. Someone would probably discover at some point, check if he's not in a need of a medical assistance, call him a nutter and leave alone. Mileage may vary depending on a country.
- cyberbanjo 7y agoWhat country is that if I might ask? I expected something similar because the US is so large, but afaict you're limited to 2 weeks in one location and no permanent structures.
- cosmodisk 7y agoLithuania.Not sure what the law is really like, however people can freely move in forests irrespective of who owns it as long as one doesn't start some sort of crazy activity in there.To be honest,I very much doubt that majority of private owners would mind too much if someone would be living Flintstones style as long as it's fairly reasonable and not like ' let me litter as much as I can around my tent' type of living. Yes,one would have issues with permanent structure,if it's like a house, however a few planks and some bushes on top of it would hardly pass as a perm structure..
- FrojoS 7y agoInteresting. I've checked out the Lithuanian forests after hearing much of them. I remember, we drove for about 1h to get into as much into 'middle of nowhere' as we could. Didn't strike me as a place where you wouldn't be found by a forester quite quickly. But that could be just my perception, from growing up in Germany and building places in the forest as a child.

- FrojoS 7y agoWhere is that? I'd say in Europe forests are so well utilized that you will be discovered by a professional forester in no time - and likely asked to leave.
