Lessons I am learning from living in a small city

“A super stressful urban life detox”

This photo was taken many years ago… in Sado island…while driving back home after a day at the beach.

I am lucky that I have had the opportunity to live in the countryside for the past few years.

Nothing happens here.

The whole town is like a big condo for young families.

It is not a place for a single woman or man.

But, this lack of urban activities, has allowed me to improve in other ways…

And it has allowed me to experience a super powerful detox from my stressful urban life!

1. Sunrises and sunsets

“There’s a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they’re absolutely free. Don’t miss so many of them.”
Jo Walton

I love sunsets and sunrises.

One of my first articles- Keep an open mind, it’s all about Perspectives — was about how I missed them.

I didn’t have the chance to see sunrises or sunsets in the city.

Now when I get to see them, I feel a comfortable energy.
