Even though his house is a kilometer away from the closes neighbors he says that he doesn’t miss the noise and crowds of the city and he’s now very comfortable with the peace and quiet of his new lifestyle.
Another thing he certainly doesn’t miss is all the financial pressure that comes with living in a big city. “At one point I had two mortgages which I think totaled nearly £400,000, I had a car, and all the bills and mortgages, electric, water, internet, TV licenses, insurances, ” he said. “I earned good money, but everything just went, everyone had their hand in my pocket until there was nothing left. Even though I don’t earn much now, I probably have more money now then I did then.”
