I've put a lot of effort into making my life work offline. As a foreigner, it's difficult for me to get 3G/4G data because my life isn't stable enough to have a subscription. Some of my favourite apps (iPhone 4S):
- Wiki2Touch (offline Wikipedia) and PlinyPedia.
- Galileo Offline Maps (with Google Maps tiles from MOBAC)
- Offline StackOverflow (my own project)
https://github.com/peterburk/stackoverflowlocal
- Offline Bible
- MyWi (extend the range of a WiFi signal)
- A lot of other scraped websites (web comics, 9gag, FML, UrbanDictionary, shortjokes).
Regarding removable batteries, I have a Third Rail case which lets me attach a battery only when I need it.

I also have a lot of adaptors so I can plug in anywhere (mains-8 female to kettle cable, light socket to mains, etc).
Although I haven't slept on the streets for more than one night at a time (thanks, CouchSurfing), I expect that I'll end up in a tent one of these years. Before I can get that privilege though, I need to keep trying to work in order to maintain my visa status, or move on to another country that might welcome me.
