Ask HN: When was the last time you lived 24 hours without the Internet?

It has recently occured to me that I didn't quite remember my last day "off" the Internet. It was maybe 4 years ago, I'm not so sure.

The answer to this question was the first step that lead me to a straight change of habits I'm applying to my daily life. The Internet is a blessing for all mankind, but the amount of time I spent hoarding knowledge was detrimental to actual projects and health. I could even call it an addiction.

So, out of curiosity, When was your last time you lived 16~24 hours in a row without the Internet? Do you even remember it?

EDIT: For some weird reason the thread got istantly pushed down from the front page. Anyway, thanks for participating in the conversation and sharing your experiences!

Yes, when I was on a remote island in Thailand. It actually felt refreshing being disconnected from the internet for several days.

Last summer I did a cycle camping trip. No internet for 7 days.

That must have been very remote because I have been to some remote islands in Thailand and they all had fantastic internet speeds. In one of them (Koh Lanta) I remember downloading a 1080p movie in about 10 minutes. On wifi, inside a hut.

My last time 100% without internet was in Nepal, last year. Nearly 40 days offline.
