I'm working on a sweet contract job that pays decently. After it's done in 8 months, I want to drop off the face of the earth completely. No contact with friends/family/anybody. Just my mind and I. I don't even want an emergency phone or anything, I just want to be
completely cut off.
Cancel my phone. Sell my computers. Sell it all. Take half a year or a few months somewhere totally remote to clear my head. Bring a ton of books/kindle and go at it. Maybe do some writing myself.
I recall seeing a video on Reddit of a woman going on a large ship, I think an ice breaker it was. It looked fantastic and inspired me so much.
Has anyone on HN done this? Where would I begin researching ideas? If it helps, I'm in Canada. I'd love to go up North in the wilderness for awhile.
I need to get the fuck out of this concrete jungle.

edit: cold climate only. I hate the sun, I hate the tropics. I love the cold.
