My World


Some people sometimes ask me why I live where I live. Why I don’t use my talents and skills to make career in a city. They cannot understand that I have chosen the place because I like it here.  Because I feel the best here. I love to have my own warm peaceful real home, my beautiful land, loving animals and lots of freedom. I need lots of space and I have it here. I need close contact with nature and I have it here.

Well, it cost lots of hard labour – that’s the price. But I prefer it than easy city life. Besides, the simple labour is rewarding when you see fruits of your efforts, when you create your space around you due to your needs and dreams.

Most people are astonished, that I prefer to live lonely on my own here than being in crowd of people.
But what’s so good about being in the crowd? Many people are lead by low instincts and when you feel it – you don’t feel well in their company. They are like vampires to you. Drain all energy from you. Nature is pure and innocent. Natural. Not harmful. You may rest among nature. Feel good. Most people make me tired. I could stand presence only a very few very good friends. Since years they are far away, busy with their own lives and families. I have learnt to manage and live on my own and I prefer it this way. I doubt if I ever meet someone with whom I could feel happy. I can tolerate others for some time. For example volunteers or CouchSurfers. But I don’t need them really. I could do without them. Volunteers should be welcomed here as people who offer to help me at my farm. But the reality is, that they demand from me extra work – hosting them is for me extra work and expense, teaching and explaining them every simple thing and dealing with them is tiring for me, especially if they tend to be difficult and fussy. Also, often happens, that they make more harm then help which makes me think twice if I should still host them. So, I decided to be more careful whom I invite to my house. I think I don’t want to stretch myself too much. I prefer to host people who are a real help to me – not another burden.
