Could you do this...? on 10:51 - Nov 19 with 1383 views | Guthrum | There's a lot of things I'd like about that scenario. However, I'm probably too gregarious to be that far away from everything (unless I could afford the flights down south). Which is the other thing, you'd need some means of earning which doesn't rely on having lots of customers close by. | |

Judging by the minimalist décor in those places, you'd need to change profession. | |

But there'd be plenty of space for a workshop to do carpentry! | |

Could you do this...? on 13:06 - Nov 19 with 1215 views | Superfrans | A friend of mine left his life in London, working in the media industry, and relocated with his wife and kids to the Isle Of Skye about two years ago. They bought a piece of land, built their own house from scratch and (from his pictures on Facebook) it looks idyllic. Obviously, not totally off-grid (or he wouldn't be able to post to Facebook) but it looks extremely appealling. | |

If money wasn't an issue I could do it abroad - find somewhere in the sun and cash my chips in so to speak. | |

To be honest, there are times when we're driving back from Cornwall when I could happily turn round, stay down there with my Kindle, my Amazon Video, Spotify and be just fine. Of course, I'd miss certain things, but I'd get over it. Having every day to myself would compensate for everything I would leave behind in London, not to mention the daily commute. It's friends and family I'd miss more than anything else... | |

I could do that abroad, if I had a nice little holiday home with a pool, or access to a pool in a complex. Far too complicated to do that currently but wouldn't rule it out at some point | |
