Good news: take up subsistence farming, no healthcare, no electricity, and make everything yourself, and you too can have half the year "off".

take up subsistence farming

Where?

Plenty of places you can do this. Put "homesteading" into a search engine of your choice and you'll get more information on the topic than you can handle.

You'll also pretty quickly realize its a very hard, tedious life and we have it pretty good in many ways in the modern world.
