Why not send high school graduates to her for an educational gap year? They might gain an appreciation for hot water and fossil fuels
/Cave-dwelling fruitcake “Lynx” Villden seeks to recreate Stone Age community
British-born Lynx Vilden, 56, first met Ben six years ago in Washington, where she was living wild by herself six months out of a year, and teaching people about the Stone Age way of life the rest of the time.
At the time she was living on a five-acre plot of land she bought with her $165,000 inheritance from her mother, and for last night's show, Ben revisited Lynx in Norway, where she now lives in a yurt with a stove, running water, electricity and an Internet connection,
She still hopes to teach people how to 'rewild' and live like our ancestors, but admitted it has not been plain sailing since her last meeting with Ben, and that she contracted Lyme Disease from hundreds of tick bites in France during a nomadic phase where she hopped from one country to the other.
She hopes to create her community, called Lithica, where people will leave behind their modern lifestyle to live like in the Stone Age and learn to reconnect with nature.
Viewers were deeply impressed with Lynx and called her 'incredible', saying her story of reconnecting with nature was just the tonic in troubled times.
But don’t worry, kids, Lynx has made some improvements to the original Stone Age so you’ll still be able to twerk on Twitter
