But not somewhere in the woods where you have to risk getting hit on the head by a falling tree trunk or something. Sailboats don't need as much fuel, and can travel long distances. You can pretty much spend years on it travelling the world, as many have already done or are doing right now.

Here is another website that tells you about different boats to live aboard on.

Men have been doing this for centuries.
