Josh Duhamel, star of "Ransom Canyon," shared insights about his off-grid lifestyle in Minnesota with his family. He values living close to nature, which he believes helps counteract global negativity and disconnection fostered by technology. Duhamel described his experience of building their cabin without plumbing for years, finding fulfillment in a rustic lifestyle that promotes family bonding and memorable experiences. He emphasized the pride in the effort they've put into the property and how it remains a mix of comfort and roughness, preserving its natural charm despite improvements.
Duhamel emphasized how crucial it is to disconnect from technology, suggesting that nature can ground individuals in overwhelmed times. He noted, "Nature helps ground you to what's important."
Regarding his first years in his cabin, Duhamel recalled, "We were basically homesteading the first 12 years. For the longest time, we didn't have plumbing. We were using outhouses and washing dishes in the lake."
He expressed pride in having shaped his space: "I feel so connected to it. I didn't just buy the place, I shaped this place. While we've made a lot of improvements, you still feel like you're roughing it, and I love that."
