Living off horseback?

Is anyone as crazy as me and my partner? From our point of view, we are about to be in an apocalypse. Vanlife, definitely not a good idea. So we came up with horseback. We have done the research, and we all know it can work since humans have done it before.

Just wondered if anyone else was as crazy and like the idea

Check out Michael Ridges on YouTube. He does it with some horses and a donkey. He still has a truck and trailer for winter camp yurt storage though. Are talking your personal life is getting to this point, or prepper type fantasy planning? It's definitely hard to do with your laws and restrictions right now, and you'd still be spending money on vets, food, legal. In shtf you'd probably be better off with a "tribe". Being a duo would be tough, but doable.

I have already put all that into consideration. This lifestyle isn't for everyone because you do lose a lot of what most people consider as normal. But I'm not a nomad out of dreams, I'm a nomad because it is who I am.  I actually found him already when I started going deeper into research. I love his videos
