Well I was thinking of becoming a hermit and moving to the desert as well as taking a vow of silence for 2 years.

Any suggestions on what desert I should go to? Or hell it doesn't gotta be a desert, but you gamespot users tell me where I shall go on my self imposed exile. Thanks.

thats something i wanna do to but i wanna go to a wooded area, like a forest. if your actually serious about this you should plan it out, the first thing you will need is a constant supply of food and water.

If I'd ever go somewhere in lonesome exile it would probably be some area in Switzerland. You do realize of course that AT&T has not yet completed its "random forest/desert" internet cable-laying plans yet, right?

No try Alaska. It's beautiful in the summer and harsh in the winter. It'll be a good experience

You have to live near some people... otherwise how will you sit on your porch, in a rocking chair, muttering under your breath, holding a shotun, threatening everybody that walks by? That'd be more fun that going into exile.

If you plan on isolating yourself from society you'll first have to learn how to be self-sustainable. You'll need to generate your own power. You'll need shelter and a means of repairing that shelter. You'll need water and food. Clothes are optional, except as a defense against the elements. The desert is the least likely place on earth to do this. What you need is a sailboat (no engine), a water cachement and filtration system, a method of catching fish, shellfish and crustaceans, plus a method of identifying which seafood is edible and what is not. For water, you'll need a desalinization filter, plus spare 55 gallon drums in case it doesn't rain. Attach solar panels to your hull, linked to a battery bank for power. Use a wind trubine attached to the mast for wind power. You could go with wave power as well, but that would mean putting holes in the hull, which means more repairs down the line; this is also why I said forget the engine. You only go where the wind takes you. Don't get anything that uses up too much power. Forget refrigeration; look to dry goods, dried meats and vegetables. You'll need Vitamin C so you don't get scurvy (yarrr), so take powdered supplements. Keep plenty of first aid stuff on hand, cuz you won't have any medical help in the middle of the ocean. Oh , yeah, go park yourself in the middle of the ocean and feast on fresh fish forever, sit buck naked under the stars, and play your music as loud as you want. The whales won't mind.

Go to international waters, it's technically a desert (since you can't drink any of the water)

Somehow I don't think socializing with people, even if over the Internet, is going to get you closer to living as a hermit.
