Living off the grid has become increasingly popular post-pandemic, which is probably why one woman has been mesmerizing TikTok for a while now with stories from her quiet life in a remote Canadian community.

Hilary (@north_phase) lives in Yukon, a sparsely populated territory of Canada known for its beautiful mountain ranges, gorgeous national parks and large wildlife population. Tourists also love the region’s near-perfect view of the Northern Lights.

But when it comes to people who actually live and stay within Yukon year-round, the number is shockingly low: According to Hilary, she is one of just 90 residents who live within the entire territory.

In many of her TikTok videos, Hilary takes her followers behind the scenes of her daily life, which is definitely slower than the usual hustle and bustle of big city life or even suburbia. She often has to travel five hours just to run errands, buy groceries and make other necessary appointments.
