Upholding the idea of self-sustainability, off-gridders are mainly couples and singletons. However, for off-gridders who live with their entire family or invite people around them to lead this kind of life, their pursuit of and perseverance towards their ideal life are not understandable to ordinary people.

Jeff and Rose, a couple who lives in central British Columbia in Canada, bring their five daughters to lead a life of a different kind in the forest. The couple left the city just to nurture their children. Differing from ordinary families, Jeff and Rose teach their daughters survival skills personally, including hunting, house building and fishing skills. They even do not allow their daughters to go to school, trying to set them free from the bindings of traditional education. In an environment where they have to provide for themselves, they want to educate their daughters to be independent and learn how to determine their own lives.

Having experienced the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011 and hovered between life and death, Tic tac dancer Asaki realised the meaning of life. He resolutely abandoned his job at a dance studio in Tokyo and moved to Okayama Prefecture to lead an off-grid life in the mountains. All the hustle and bustle have turned into a simple life, which gave Asaki a brand new feeling. Thus, he was resolved to share this way of life with people around him and established the “Asaki University”, in order to encourage everyone to find his / her new mode of life in nature.

In this episode, being a father himself, nature programme instructor MOK Ho-kwong (Yeah Man), will visit Asaki and Jeff and Rose’ family respectively, who strive to pass on the idea of life off-the-grid, to think through together how to live harmoniously with nature on the one hand, and to pass on the off-gridders’ spirit on the other.
