I had planned to become a hermit when younger. I studied "hunter gatherer living skills" for many years, intending to do it all without any modern technology. (https://goo.gl/CACwPc) Life took me in unexpected directions, and I ended up writing computer programs and organizing online/offline communities instead.

This is a good quote from the article:

"It is better to live among the crowd and keep a solitary life in your spirit than to live alone with your heart in the crowd."
