Living Off-Grid, Really

With a wide range of topics, Living Off-Grid, Really is part how-to and part memoir as author Aur Beck recounts his journey living off-grid. It began in his childhood as his family traveled around the country in a wagon drawn by horses. In his young adulthood, he settled on his life’s purpose of teaching people about solar energy and helping others with energy changes, so he started his own solar energy installation business in Illinois. He now lives in a 300-square-foot tiny house, and he’s still teaching and helping others learn about the living off-grid lifestyle. Within these pages, you’ll discover the story of Aur’s childhood and learn how to live, learn, and be entertained off-grid, all with little to no money, and find housing, food, and medicine off the beaten path. These topics are, to Aur, the crux of living off-grid, rather than focusing solely on energy. He does, however, include a chapter all about energy. Aur hopes to energize, inspire, empower, and enlighten people to create a mental shift toward a simpler, less stressful way of life. After seeking a balanced life for himself, he would like nothing more than to help others achieve the same goal. He continues to learn and teach, share ideas, and train solar installers around the world. Follow Aur to start a journey of your own!
