protip: the agony of death by starvation leaves no one 'happy'.
Want to know what is funny?
it is relatively simple to live life "on your own terms". I'd say 90%+ of everyone does. Want to perfectly simplify your life?
Be a contemplative monk or nun.
Or the many other paths that allow you to be very, very simple.
Want to go live rough? Sure!
here's a tip - learn the basics of food gathering, preservation, hunting, etc., take a map, tell people where you are going.
Want to go prove yourself in Alaska?
Web search "Alaska homesteading" and got get a cheap bit of land in the middle of nowhere and live there. Easy as pie. You can get water access lots in the remote interior for less than a semester at a land grant university. Go build a cabin, hunt, trap, fish, and live how you like.

But, and this is important, if you don't have the basic skills, don't do minimal preparation, and don't plan ahead you might die.
If you die because of your personal ignorance and laziness then you won't be a hero.
