Anyone who had a lot of urban bustle, surely at least sometimes, wants to live in a lonely place. Lonely house, away from annoying neighbor, far from unpaid bills and credit cards, life in nature, with all the charms and challenges of wilderness. A life that is full of colors and scents forests, rivers, seas, and not from the smell of gasoline and perfume. Imagine the morning washing the forest resource and the afternoon relaxing on the lawn, and the night carried on the window of your attic counting stars.
