I am in the mountains of Spain in a village with a population of 1600 spread over many many kilometers up in the mountains. Water comes from the spring on our land (we have it checked every 6 months; it's great :), electricity solar; we need the generator a few days per year and 'need' is actually not really true as it never really gets too little sun/light etc. Tons of sun (heatwave now). Social circle; most people here live on the coast which is what you would expect of Spain as per expats and tourism which is what we really don't fancy; most 'beach and sun' people seem to dislike the mountains, at least driving up them. So we are left with people who do and that seem to be people with a same-ish mindset as us; entrepreneurs and generally educated people. Our village is a steaming pile of social when you want it and if you don't, you just go home. Next to that, ofcourse, we have a part of our social lives on internet, which works fine for people who don't mind typing. I met some of my now best friends online (via entrepreneur and tech communities) and we have better discussions than I usually have in person via text chat. |
