Yeah. Maybe on Youtube, only the extremes exists.
Sweden has thousands of remote houses (ødegård) that be bought or rented for very little.
It can be refreshing going there for a few days. Drinking fresh cold water from a well in the forest, no electricity, a fireplace, some mosquitos, crayfish, playing scrable and looking at the rain.
And then being reminded why it is actually quite nice and much more interesting to live in a big city.
- rini17 6y agoI have a natural garden with wildflowers. Anytime unwinding by sitting down and watching the bees. Planted all kinds of fruits and herbs, so there is always something to taste too. Looking forward for trees to grow and provide shade. Nicer than living in a big city. Everybody else around has a manicured lawn and ornamental shrubs. My garden is unkempt mess to them. That is what I mean by problematic relationship with nature. I don't think you can fix that by only occassionally spending few days in cabin. I had to discover much of it myself, have personal experience with communities as described and still would like to meet like-minded people but...somehow there aren't many.
- krageon 6y ago> some mosquitos Now now, surely you mean thousands of mosquitos. Especially if you have a lake nearby, which is a real big possibility in Sweden.
