Can you live without technology? Why you can or why not?

In a 'how would I fare without a phone or internet access or tv' way, easily. Wouldn't even batt a lash. I forget my phone at home for days on end, haven't watched tv in years, go through phases without turning on my computer. There are so many lovely things in this world to fill a day with, and I really enjoy being disconnected.

In a 'technology is gone, can you stay alive?' way... not certain about that. I live in a mild climate, I understand the basics of farming, but getting water, staying healthy, warding off bad weather, being alone with no way to contact people.. I think the fact I'm having trouble thinking of what I'd need to worry about makes my inadequacy clear.
