unusual man and horse riding

Wonderful day ? We were far from Kiev, on the façade of a wonderful person - Victor. I will tell you a little about him) Victor lived in a big city, received a higher education, achieved success in his career and earned good money. but at some point he realized that he was becoming unhappy, material wealth did not make him happy. He decided to leave everything, move to the wilderness and engage in agriculture. He moved 60 km from Kiev, in the direction of Pereyaslav-Khmelnitsky, in a fairly quiet place where few people live. it was 15 years ago.
Now he has a wife and three children, makes wood furniture with their own hands, works the land, and sometimes tourists come for horseback riding. children do not go to school, are fully home schooled, have not given any vaccinations to children and they have two wonderful horses: Marusya and Thunder, on which we rode goats, 6 cats and many other animals) he feels free and independent , believes that he found his place and notplans to change anything.today these people are called downshifters, but then it was not popular and Victor just followed his wishes)
In such a place, it’s true that you are distracted from everything and have a rest with your soul)) but I couldn’t live like that …it is a little strange when, in our time, in order to wash one must draw water from a well and heat it on a fire (in a stove or on a fire). the nearest store is somewhere across the field and there are still many difficulties about which you can talk and condemn the lifestyle of these people for a long time, but this is their choice and for them this is comfort and peace of mind

I want to share such stories and find out where such places are located

@EvgeniiaShumeyko you said it’s hard and you need to heat water and so on :smiley: … but I’m moderate person, if I do this step and move to a farm I would also use technology to make life there comfortable.
