Tag: Primitive Lifestyle; Traditional hunter-gatherers; Self-sufficient experiment
Intro: A couple born in 1980s, Tang Guanhua and Xingchen, started to return to nature since 2008 following the idea in The New Complete Book of Self Sufficiency by John Seymour. Their project is called ‘Another Land’.
Project: Another Land is what they call their primitive home in Lao Shan, Qingdao. Tang and Xing manually make everything using natural materials, including toilet, beds, clothes and food. They hope Another Land will be a community in the future.
Background: Xing used to be an analyst at securities agency. Tang is a famous artist, who is viewed as Chinese Andy Warhol. After they knew each other for a while, they were absorbed by the same idea that they dislike modern society and long for purely agricultural life. They began planning for it in 2008 and went into practice in 2011.
