    Hello everyone! I am unable to keep up with replying to my IG messages, but deeply enjoy reading them, thank you for all your beautiful stories. Feel free to ask questions here and I will update my comment with answers if I am able.
    - My name is Paola
    - I am located in Washington State, in the foothills of the beautiful Cascade mountains
    - I was a teacher, now turned full time artist, and hope to teach again post - pandemic
    - Yes, I am bilingual :) though my spelling isn’t so great in Spanish haha!
    - I do not own my cottage, I rent it.
    - I am not off grid, I unfortunately do not have the ability to take enough time off work to keep up a homestead nor am I knowledgeable enough to be successful. But I greatly admire those who do.
    - My main mission with the channel is to provide peaceful artistic videos and share with others the beauty of the natural world, and how important it is for us to do our part to preserve it. Learn more here: www.audubon.org/takeaction

      They only don't know your history. In a small town, you won't be anonymous for long. Realise that you will take yourself and your peculiarities with you to a new place. Start changing yourself, your environment can support that but won't change your inner self. You probably realise that, but I felt the need to share this.

    • @anupdev5845
      @anupdev5845 3 года назад +28

      A new place gives you an opportunity to leave the past behind and start from scratch again. But you also have to be mindful of doing the right things once you start over or else you will be back in the same place after a few years. In a smaller town, everyone knows everyone and it's impossible to blend in or be anonymous for long. People naturally take more interest in your life there because they are all dependant on each other for survival. If you have a community centric attitude to do good for people without any commercial interest, then small town can be a real boon for you but a small town is not really a place to hide and be alone. You can't afford to piss off people here because there are only a handful of people who live here anyway.
      I am permanently shifting base from a mega city to a small village of 680 people in a few months. I lived in that village for a few months on rent over the last 2 years and have already come to know what living in a small place entails. It can be extremely rewarding but not in a way most city folks think.

      "We must keep these beautiful places hidden from the world" I pretty strongly disagree. There's nothing wrong with attracting new people to an area that share the values of that area. Rural american is slowly dying, especially for young people.

    There's a quiet elegance to your blog and I so enjoy watching it every week. Your straw hat and long wavy hair blends with the wheat blowing in the fields, and the simple white kite with its blue tail matches the blue and white of sky and clouds. I love exploring the countryside as well as your little town with you. Thanks again for sharing. Jenny

    My sister I recently stumbled across your channel I think more or less a week ago. It is ministry in the simple life. It reaches us not in words but by doing the ways of simplifying life. I think we can all live this simple life in our own lives if we apply these principles of simplicity less materiality in our daily lives.

    I saw this thing on Instagram that is very cool. You take a photo of the clouds, print it out, then draw over it what you see in them. For example, if you see a bunny you draw the bunny over the cloud you think looks like it. You realize how many things you can see in one picture. Love your videos!!! Have a great day!!

    A lovely cottage fairy does guide us every week to places of enchantment that will all have us weep.
    The beauty and the magic abundantly appear, her tender ways of steering do draw the senses near.
    The fragrance of the meadow, the humming of the bees caress the dreamy landscape and all the eye does see.
    Come join these wonderous travels across the lands of old and see the unspoilt beauty which nature for us holds.

    My favourite part of the video: your dog's face, too cute! Then in regard to the right home has a way of finding you, interesting that in my last video I say ''I choose Tuscany, or rather Tuscany has chosen me''! I was always on the road, really struggling to settle, until I fell in love with Tuscany! That for me was a big deal, as I never really felt connected to any of the places where I lived! But Tuscany has something magical and I really enjoy living here! Great video Paola, you are brilliant and I am always learning so much from you!

The stores are attached to one another so you can walk anywhere. It brings my heart so much happiness to see families hanging out in their front porches (which most houses dont have anymore) or sitting outside the buildings or between them. It's an extremely small downtown area but it feels so peaceful.
