City life versus country living - which reigns supreme?

Of course, it comes down to personal preference, but in our very biased opinion ;-), country living wins by a long shot!

As two former city dwellers turned countryside enthusiasts, a few years ago, we swapped bustling streets for serene landscapes and skyscrapers for endless azure skies.

Did you know that since 9/11 and the COVID pandemic, there's been a surge in Americans moving to rural areas, seeking refuge from urban chaos? With nearly half of Americans now preferring small-town charm over city hustle, it's clear: the call of the wild is stronger than ever.

But what makes country living so irresistible? Is it the fresh air, wide-open spaces, or the joy of growing your own vegetables? We explore the magic of countryside simplicity, from starry nights to homegrown tomatoes.

Yet, it's not all idyllic sunsets and peaceful pastures. Country living demands hard work and unwavering commitment. But fear not; whether you're a city slicker yearning for greener pastures or a country pumpkin at heart, the simple life is within reach! And we want to tell you how!

Join us as we uncover the joys, challenges, and endless possibilities of embracing the countryside mindset.

Where do you stand? Are you drawn to the city lights or dreaming of chickens and green pastures? Tune in and share your thoughts with us!
