People laugh when I tell them that my dream job is to tend a lighthouse (which are all largely automated now), but it's for reasons very similar to what you've outlined here: lots of free time for me to read and study what I'm interested in. So another possible solution is to identify a job that's based predominantly on the criteria of having a human present. A fire lookout comes to mind. The one hour of work/day would probably need relaxed to two to three hours per day, but you'd also be supplied room & board. The Internet access might be possible via cell technology.

Please let us know how this works out for you.
