  • Miriam Lancewood lived with her husband Peter for seven years in the wilderness of New Zealand. They left civilisation in 2010 and walked into the mountains with not much more than a backpack. They roamed around like nomads, slept in a tent, cooked on a fire and Miriam learned to hunt with bow and arrow. Their observations and experiences are unique in this technological world.
    Since Miriam met Peter in 2006, they have been nomadic and lived and traveled in many different countries. At present they are in the Rodopi mountains in Bulgaria, east Europe.
    Miriam's memoir 'Woman in the Wilderness', became an international Bestseller. In 2020 the sequel 'Wild at heart' came out, and in 2023 she co-edited a new publication called 'Wilder Journeys'.

    Hi Miriam, did you try to bake also a flatbread? That pot is large enough to bake it. Do you buy milk in Bulgaria? If you can get kefir grains and make milk kefir with them, you can bake perfect flatbread with only two ingredients - kefir and a flour (I use spelt wholeflour). Its probably even better than sourdough from the starter😊 And one more tip: If you leave the dough overnight somewhere in the cold place, it will be easier to process and tastier next day (the kefir will process it like yeast overnight)… Bulgarians/balkanians sell very tasty spreads called Ljutenica or Ajvar from only natural ingredients like red paprika or eggplant😊

    Miriam, how do you guys deal with ticks when spending so much time in the wild ? Have you become immune to Lyme disease? 😅

    • @SladkaPritomnost
      @SladkaPritomnost Рік тому +1

      Exactly my question! :)
      Maybe wood smoke helps to keep ticks off...
      2 of my friends have chronic Lyme (diagnosed very late) and life is living horror for them, lots suffering. However they are not aware of having a tick ever.
      Knowing their lives, it limits me in nature.

    • @miriamlancewoodinthewild
      @miriamlancewoodinthewild  Рік тому +3

      We have had hundreds of ticks on us while walking through western Europe. We always cooked on fire, so even our smokey skin didn’t stop them... I also have friend with Lyme disease, and ticks always stressed me out.
      Here in Bulgaria I have never had a tick! Very good news.
      Our dog (and cat too) get them often and I'm always looking for them, and removing them. But those ticks seem specific for each animal and don't like humans.
      The absence of human- ticks, and maybe even Lyme disease is another good aspect of the Rodopi mountains.

      ​@@SladkaPritomnost no, even our smoke smelling skin didn't stop them from biting us in West Europe.
      But, as I wrote above, no human ticks in Bulgaria. At least both Peter and I never had a tick here. And no local ever talked to us about ticks or Lyme.

      Hi Miriam, thanks for your reply. I actually tried to send you an email about this topic, so please don't bother replying me, as I already know the answer :)
      I have also another friend who has had tens of ticks from a child up to now, she is in her 30s. No signs of Lyme up to now. I keep fingers crossed for her. She lives in high Lyme occurrence area.
      Considering that amount of ticks you'd had I'm convinced that your body must have encountered with Lyme to some degree.
      I have a tiny little hope that some people might be immune to Lyme, while doctors say it's impossible...
      Keep it up with good health, Greetings to you and Peter from Slovakia, BR Ján Beňo

      Hi Leila, thank you for reading my books! No, when long walking we carry as little weight as possible. Then we eat flat bread (chapati).
      The campoven is super heavy, so we only use that when we stay longer in one spot and when we can organise a 4x4 or helicopter. The bread from a camp-oven is fantastic though. 🧡

      These (so called poor) village people look at us with pity. They consider our life poor without electricity and modern things. No lights, running water in the house, no bathroom, shower, toilet, fridge or washing machine, and cooking on a fire.
      But if you choose simple living, you'll have plenty of time, and you'll see that you don't need all that stuff anyway.
      Taking a short walk into the forest for a pee, while there are bears around, feels like a little adventure. Life is never dull. ❤

    Far simpler is Cornbread "Hoe Cakes", make a mix of 2 parts cornmeal 1 part Self Rising Flour (the gluten in the flour is the binder and is self rising). To make one Hoe Cake, put 1/4 cup Cornbread mix in bowl + enough water for thick batter, cook on shovel or some other flat cookware like a pancake.

    It's a shame that you use yeast instead of a sourdough starter. Sourdough is very easy to make and it's much healthier

    • @miriamlancewoodinthewild
      @miriamlancewoodinthewild  Рік тому +3

      Yes, I've used sourdough in 2019, when we lived in a normal house for 6 months (see video with Wouter Deboot).
      I love sourdough bread.
      But you have to keep the starter in the fridge, right? We don't have a fridge. Even keeping yeast can get problematic in a hot summer.

      Ik was in januari in de italiaanse bergen en ontmoette er een vrouw die al vele jaren een lepel van haar zuurdesemdeeg nam, en gewoon in een kommetje open en bloot in haar kast bewaarde tot de volgende week. Zelfs niet afgedekt en zonder enige 'voeding'. Na een week maakte ze weer een broodje of 2 met dat ondertussen keiharde, zuurdesembrokje. Ze zette het s avonds met een tas lauw water en een tas volkorenmeel te rijzen onder een handdoek in een kom. En de volgende dag was alles levendig en voegde ze er meer bloem en water en beetje zout aan toe. Alles op het gevoel. Voor ze het bakte nam ze weer een brokje voor de volgende week.Tegen savonds had ze 2 nieuwe broden. Superlekker!!! Ik kreeg een brokje van haar en bracht het in mijn rugzak mee naar België! Nikske oei oei of pas op! Gewoon tussen mijn kleding in de rugzak voor 2 dagen. Hier thuis gestart met dat brokje op haar manier en het lukte prima!

Every evening I would do exactly what you showed. In America that pan is called a Dutch oven. The bread would be the next day's lunch.
