Recently I posted about "PTs" (perpetual travelers, permanent tourists, etc.), who never put down roots in once place and thus live a life of freedom from interference by meddling snoops and such. Another lifestyle choice is akin to living as a modern-day Thoreau. It seems that Claire Wolfe, whose weblog I recently added to my shortlist, lives in this manner. I have to respect her for building her own cabin in the woods, simplifying her life down to the bare essentials, refusing government identity numbers, and so on.
